THE RICHMOND MYsTERY.-Dcvelop
ments in the case of Fannie Lillian Madison
the young woman found drowned in one OF
the reservoirs at Richmond last Saturday,
have resulted in warrant being issued for
the arrest of Thomas ]. Cluyerius, young
man living in King and Queen county,
which adjoins King William county, TO
which the dead woman belonged. The
father of the deceased reached Rich mOnd
yesterday and gave testimony at the coro.
ner's inquest which, combined with other
evidence, led to the issuance of the warrant.
Mr.. Madison, said that young Cluverius is q
cousin of his daughter, and that the two
we're raised together. He believed that be-
fore his daughter left home for Bath county
she had been criminally intimate with Gu
verius. Other evidence given before the
coroner shows that the young man was in
the company Of the deceased on the day and
evening before her death. Officers have gone
to King and Queen county in search ofCluver-
Jus. Upon the carefully pasted scraps of q let,
ter found in the room of the hotel the name
of ]. Cluverius was found. 1t was the"
discovered that he was young lawyer Of
King William county. He was of excellent
SOCidl SldnuluR. IL CuluS oup puoo no w do
registered at the American Hotel Thurs
day, on the day of the night that Miss Mad
ison got in Richmond from Millboro'. He
remained Friday, and left early Saturday
morning, the day her body was found in
the reservoir. A watch key was found on
the bank of the reservoir near the spot
where the body was discovered. This will
have an important bearing upon the case
should it be identified, probably connecting
the owner with the murder. 1t had the ap-
pearance of having been torn from the
chain, as it was found where the ground
gave evidence of struggle. 1t is believed
that the unfortunate girl, in Der efforts,
grasped the watch chain Of one of her MUIR
derers. A man of Richmond is sure that
he has before seen the key upon the chain
of a young man he knows, and has given
the name to the officers. 1t is thought the
evidence will be complete to-day. What
makes the affair more mysterious is the fact
that the city reservoir is almost in nest of
houses, and it is remarkable how the girl
could have been murdered and thrown in
the water without the knowledge of some
one in the neighborhood.

VIRGINIA COUPONS. "A dispatch from

'It is understood here that while Alex.
III. H. Stuart was Secretary of the Interior
during the administration of President Fill
more. he purchased on behalf of the United
States SS50000 of Virginia bonds for the
Indian trust fund. 1t is presumed this
amount of bonds was funded under the act

considerable amount 1t is remarked that
under these circumstances Attorney ener-

LAWYERS COME TO BLows.-Messrs. VIM.
A. Meloy and Reginald Fendall, two well,
known members of the Washington bar,
created some excitement in the Equity
Court, of that city, yesterday. The gentle
men were opposing counsel in the case OF
Duyall vs., Mitchell, on trial at the time
before Judge Hagner. Mr.. Meloy appeared
in the interest of The heirs of Mary Duval
and Mr.. Fendal for Mr.. ]. G. Hardness.
During the argument in the case Mr. Fen
dali remarked that Mr.. Meloy had filed q
claim of $500 for fees against the estate.
81 pronounce that unqualifedly false"
quickly retorted Mr. Meloy.
"What do you say ?" exclaimed Mr.. Fen
dali.
"It is unquaifiedly false" repeated Mr..
Meloy, in defiant manner.
Mr.. Fendall then walked quickly toward
Mr.. Meloy and struck him two or three
times on the head and lace with his fist.
Bailiff Coffee and others, however, soon
separated the two men, but during the short
encounter Judge Hagner called for the mar
shall. Mr.. Meloy apologized to Mr.. Fendsll
and not to the court and Mr.. Fendall to
the court and not to Mr. Meloy. Mr.. Meloy
said he used the language with reference 10
the remark of Mr.. Fendall, not with the in
tention of calling him a liar. Mr.. Ferdall
disclaimed any intention of committing any
contempt of the court. He said the Ian
guage was unbearable. Judge Hagner re
marked that Mr.. Meloy was the transgres
sor, and that if Mr. Fendall had not been
90 hasty he would have required Mr.. Meloy
to apologize for the remark. The court
imposed fine OF 800 on each of the gen.
tlemen. Mr.. Fendall drew his check for
the amount and Mr.. Meloy left without
paying his fine.

The few minutes during which the Senate
was in session to-day were spent in the con.
sderaiion of resolutions providing for the
session Of various committees of that body
during The recess. The real object of all
these resolutions is to make the Govern
meDt pay The personal expenses of the in.
dividual members of the committees referred
10 al the fashionable resorts next summer.
Nest of the Senators either support them
or sit quietly aud allow them TO be passed
because they are all to be more or less par.
takers in the accruing benefits. And yet
they are American Senators. Alas how
fallen from the high estate OF their more
remote predecessors So transparent and
so hagitious was the purpose Of the resolu-
,tions to-day, that Mr.. Ingalls,, when a new
one was Introduced, said, soto uoce, Pm

through the force of arms during the ia

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 10.

In THIS country every man has the right
to run for Office, and the appointing power,
whether that be composed of one man or OF
many, has as upquestioned right TO give
that office to whom it pleases. In cases
where there are two or more applicants Tor
one office, as that Office cam be given to but
one man, the others think they have been
sighted, and. by no means unnaturally, feel
sore. But that is no reason why the party
to which they belong should be disrupted;
and for them to be exposing their soreness
to the public, and threatening dire evils to
the party as the consequence of the disap-
Monument of their unfounded expectations,
only renders them ridiculous. They should
not be uumindful of the slight Importance
they would attach to the complaints OF dis
appointed applicants Of office if they, them
selves, had been the successful ones, and
should know that their own complaints are
of no more consequence to others than those
of o hers would have been ~ them.
