SINGULAR EXPERIENCE or A TAILOR WHO
TOOK 4 RIVER BATH.
T've got good item for you,' said
Lieut.. Swindels yesterday to THE RS
PUBLICAN man as he entered the detec.
tivos' room at police headquarters. "A
man. said the lieutenant, twas brought
here this morning from the fourth pre-.
cinct station, who gave the name of
Arthur Snyder, age 10 years, and who
claimed TO be n tailor, and worked three
years ago at 732 Pennsylvania avenue.
lie stated that on Sunday evening he
hired row boat from johnson n Baker,
Georgetown, TO go TO the Chain bridge.
On arriving there he thought that he
would take n swim. lie rowed ashore
and undressod. lie got in his boat
again and rowed to deep water, and
fixed his boat securely, as he thought,
from floating away. While bathing n
storm came up and his boat capsi2ed.
He swan for his boat, which had broken
away from its fastening, and seized the
bow of it with his left arm. While hold
ing on to it he was seized with vic.
lent cramps in his left side. lie
was aware that he was q long distance
from help, but thought some one might
by chance be in hniling distance. 1t was
quite dark. lie called out for help ms
loud as he could. No response came
and be llonted ut the mercy of the wind
and tide until about a. M, when q man
employed on Holtzman's saloon barge
discovered him and brought him to the
barge. The man did all that he could
70 revive the sufferer, and told him that
it was with difficulty that his left arm was
removed from the boat. The cramp had
bent his arm in the shape of bow, ant
his fingers had tight grip on the boat
His rcscuer made him comfortable on the
barge, and, with some others, went II
search Of the clothes that he left ashore
but returned without them" "lGe tolC
me-" continued Lieut.. Swindells, "tha
he was seven hours in the water, ant
that there was $23 in the pockets of hi
missing clothes"
An old suit Of clothes was furnished
the man when brought to the George
town police station. AT headquarters h
was examined us to his injuries, and the
were found to be as he stated, and n per
nit being granted he was taken to Freed
mans Hospital in the police ambulance

PISTOL VS.. LANTERN.
SEQUEL TO THE SINGULAR FIGHT IN AN
ALEXANDRIA FREIGHT YARD.

SEQUEL TO THE SINGULAR FIGHT IN AN
ALEXANDRIA FREIGHT YARD.
The heroes of the Alexandria pistol.
lantern duel were before the mayor o.
that city yesterday morning. 1t will be
remembered that Robert Meade sought
and shot Robert Collingsworth in the
Virginia Midland railroad yard on the
Goth ultimo Collingsworth telling his as.
sailaut and seriously wounding him in
the head with n lantern,
Meade, who figured as prisoner, was
represented by s. &. Brent, while Ed.
mIud Burke aud Leonard Marbury mp
pearod for the commonwealth.
Collingsworth was the first witness,
and testified that on the day Of the night
of the shooting he had been told that
Meade had used threats against him;
that on the night in question he had seen
Meade several times in the yard, and
that the last time he passed him Meade
asked him to stop, MS he wanted to talk
with him; he told Meade to go on, as he
wanted to have nothing to do with him,
and then started on down the track, still
keeping his eye on Meade, when the lat.
ter drew n pistol and shot him in the
back. He Immediately struck Meade
with lantern he had in his hand and
knocked him down. He admitted that
he had had previous disturbance with
Meade in his (witness's) house, but de-
clinod to give the reasons for the dis.
turbance.
George Edwards testified that he met
Meade on the morning before the shoot
ing, when the latter who was drunk,
tried to borrow pistol from him. He
saw Meade again that night, and that he
was hanging around the yard. Meade
asked witness where Collingsworth was,
and said, "He's the man want to sec
tonight" Shortly thereafter heard
the shot and saw Meade lying on the
track bleeding. Witness and Ceilings
worth pulled Meade off the track to pre-
vent him from being run over by 9
train.
Meade was held in $500 for his ap
pearance before the grand jury, and the
witnesses in 800 each for their appear
ance.
1t Is understood that a woman is u
the bottom of the trouble, as has beer
the case in 50 many Of the dilliculie
occurring in Alexandria.

"You nasty, mean, contemplate thing;
you have been down the river with that
hussyl" was the exclamation Of neatly
dressed lady who had waited for the
arrival of the George Leary yesterday
morning to welcome hubby to his native
shore, in company with aashily dressed
female.
"You wanted to take trip to breathe
the salt air of the bay, did you? I'll
salt you!" and she proceeded to salt her
dearly beloved with her umbrella. She
inquired for the rival female, who stood
to one side while the thrashing went on,
but she didn't attempt to bring her TO
repentance by the use Of the umbrella.
She at last caught her derelict husband
by the coat collar and marched him off
while the lone female viewed the scene
askauce and went her way.

They were to far off for the reporter tt
hear the reply, but the husband gave {
sickly, penitent smile, and it was gener

wife's comfort, offered to carry the um

THE pnoAp BRANCH ROAD,

EDiTOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN: Will
you permit me, throught the medium of
your journal, to call the attention Of the
District commissioners to the condition
of "Broad Branch road" northward
from Pierce's mill This road is much
used both by farmers and persons en-
ploycd in the city who reside in the
country, and not II day passes without
mishaps aud costly accidents due solely
to the very bad state of the road. Occa.
sionally Individuals attempt repairs at
their personal expense, but such attempts
in the direction of improvement avail but
little, and the good citizens ofthe county
now hope that the commissioners will
come to their relief in u manner that will
merit their thanks and approval.

burg corporation court, is dying at his

tive of Albemarle county, Va, but in
early life removed to Amherst, where he

tives by Virginia congressman. For
years he was commemorative attorney

Tug STOCK OF PUBLIC DoCUMENTs.-
A count of the public documents stored
at the capitol has just been completed.
1t was found that there are about 100,O 900
public documents stored there, some of
which have been there for thirty years
without being touched. But few mem
bers sent away the proceedings Of the
forty-second Congress, which is the one
that passed the back-pay bill, and over
which there was such universal con
demnation. They preferred that their
constituents should be kept in the dark
as much as possible in regard to their
votes on that bill. 1t appears also that
there he's not been such general de-
mand for the agricultural report as some
persons believe; for some years as many
as 10000 copies have been left undis-
tributed. Sixty thousand copies Of a
report made by Senator Blair's commit
tee on capital and labor have recently
been received by the document room,
and will soon be distributed. This is
outside of the number that will be dis,
tribu,ed by the Senate. The document
consists entirely of testimony taken by
Senator Dlair's committee throughout
the country during the strike OF the teleg'
raphers.

4 FRONTIER ETCHING

The ride through the Cheyenne en-
campment to day was quite interesting.
The tepees were pitched about mile
back ofthe agency buildings, in low bot
tom, and an effort, not altogether success
full, had been made TO get them in huge
semi, circle. There were perhaps 1000
Indians, 1000 ponies, and 10000 dogs.
Many of the Indians had wagons, cook.
ing utensils, and noticed one or two OF
the tepees had hedsteads and mattresses.
The vast majority, however, kept house
in aboriginal simplicity. Every tepee
had its ridge.pole outside hung with
stripped beef and entrails from yeslcr'
days rations drying in the sun. One
family passed had fire burning in
front, and over this the squaws were
roasting u dead dog-ugh A few rods
further on snake which had crawled
into camp was having its brains beaten out
by an old squaw. "That will be in the
pot in an hour" was the remark Of our
guide. The long strings Of entrails aud
other animal refuse drying in the sun
we're not uppetizing, and we tried to
avoid looking at them. The constant
hand. shaking which the braves thrust
| upon the party was also something OF
nuisance, aud 1T was a relief to get away
from it. The camp was busy scene
when Inspector Armstrong arrived. The
Indians crowded around in their gaudy
blankets, the ponies jostled each Other
in the midst Of the tepees, the dogs kept
up continuous bowling, and the chiefs
aud suhchicrs harangued little knots o.
| upOnlr in keen Sinu.gOng tones. Out O
such chaos no order could be brought
and after filling the air with profanity 70
few moments, the Inspector retire.
with promise to come another day.

A BURGLARS NOVEL KIT.

SCALING HOUSES WITH AZ EXTENSION
LADDER OF ORIGINAL CONSTRUCTION.
james Moore, a colored burglar,
aged % years, started out in his profes.
sion yesterday morning .n manner
different from the ways Of any in bis
calling as yet known. lie carried with
him an ingenious outfit. 1t consisted Of
II rope ladder, on the end of which were
hooks wrapped around an iron extension
rod, the handle Of which is constructed
so as to extend to an upper window.
His tools were an old case knife, chisel,
hatchet, and bunch of keys. DIR. j.
Mott Smith, the Hawaiian commissioner,
living at 1920 / street, was thought to be
an easy victim. The thief entered the
house and enjoyed u good meal in the
kitchen, atlcrward he went to the upper
story and, finding everybody asleep,
helped himself to things that were at
hand, among them Il gold watch and n
pair of opera glasses. He heard foot
steps following him and he escaped, and
managed TO find n hiding place in the
foundation of the Casino on Connecticut

Then he returned to the house to get his
umbrella and shoes, which he left in DR..
Smith yard While in the act of secnr.
ing his tools he was detected by Mr..
Smith, who raised an alarm and hotly
pursucd the burglar, joined in the chase
by his neighbors, who succeeded in
capturing him and placing him behind
the bars of the fourth precinct station
On being searched bulldog revolver
was found on Moore, as also about $l5C
worth of property belonging to DIR
Smith, He said that he worked with {
white man. Moore told the officer tha
he was God.icaring man, and that h
had found the umbrella arrangement ant
being hard up he was just looking arounC
to see il he could find anything. Th,
police think that he has been concerned

New IoRg, Aug. 3.-This has been
an extremely dull day for Wall street.
The stock exchange did not open until
1 o'clock, as usual on Monday mornings,
thus leaving only four hours in which to
transact business; but the sales of stocks
during these four hours were not as long
rs the business Of a single hour on some
days during the recent bull campaign,
The fluctuations in most cases were as
insignificant as the amount Of the trad
ing. During the last hour there was n
slow yielding OF prices, which left quota.

from to Z per cent. below Saturdays
