ooDEs CRY. June 10. 1886
Huntsville Burglary.

Particulars OF the burglary that was
committed at Huntsville on Monday
night and mentioned in yesterdays
E-KRALD, have come to hand.
On Monday evening a man named
Jas. Thurston. was visiting at the house
of neighbor. He stayed there until
about O'Clock in the morning. Be
tween 2 and o'clock in the morning an
old lady named Aldous living within a
block OF the place at which Thurston
had spent the evening was awakened by
a noise. She went down stairs to in
vestigate and seeing nothing returned
again to her bed. Shortly afterward
the noise was repeated and was gain
investigated, but no one was seen. At
O'Clock the old lady arose for the day
and upon going into q room down
stairs found the window raised. Further
investigation revealed the fact that her
bureau had been robbed OF $255.
the money taken being twelve
$50 gold pieces, one $40 and one So piece.
Her suspicious at once fell upon Thurs
ton; as he was the only person who
knew of the lady having any money.
The officers were imme iiately notified,
q war; mt was issued for the arrest OF
IhurstOn and search warrant was
placed in the hands of an officer.
1hurston was taken into custody and
his house was searched. When the Of
ficers went t. search the house, both
Thurston and his wife expressed them
selves as pleased; because, they said,
this would give them an opportunity to
establish Mr.. Thurston's Innocence, he
having been wrongfully accused before
this of committing various thefts. The
searchers failed TO find the money in the
house, however, and Thurston was
taken away. One officer then repaired
to Thurston's stable and upon remoY-
ing a quantity of hay and rubbish from
the manger, discovered the missing
treasure with the exception of the $
gold piece, carefully hidden in
one corner. The coin was In a
a small tin box which Thurston's 10
year cd girl identified as belonging TO
herself.
The examination resulted in Thurston
being held to await the action of the
Grand Jury. Bonds were placed at
$3.50, which at this writing have not been
furnished. The other case at Hunts
vile was not one of theft, but was a
case Of trespass, and was settled out OF
court

the adjustment of land grants, which
stands rs the unfinished business, will he
discussed. II is expected that the rest of
the week will be devoted to the legislative
and postoiiice appropriation bills, the lat
ter coming up on disagreeing report of
the eoniereeS. The river and harbOr bill
will be reported, but will not be taken up
until next week As the fiscal year will eX-
pire before the end OF the present week,
and only one of the regular appropriation
bills has vet become law, Congress viii
be required to make temporary provision
for the executive departments. This is eN-
pected to be done by passing a resolution
authorizing continuance for full day OF
expenditures for the several branches OF
the service ON the basis of the apprOpria-
tion for the present year. The proPO-
SitiOn may give rise TO short
discussion. The policy OF anticipating
appropriation is criticised as leading to
confusion by reason of the fact that ex-
penditures are thus often made upon ac-
counts for which it is aiterwarCl found Con-
greSs makes no provision at all in the regu-
bill. Following is a sum-
mary statement of present condition
of the annual appropriation bills:
awaiting the Presidents approval,
Military Academy bill; passed
both Houses, but now in the hands
of Conference Committees, pOstollice army,
District of Columbia, agricultural consular
and diplomatic and pension bills; passed
the House of Representatives, and awaiting
report from Senate Committees, river and
harbor, naval and legislative, executive
and judicial bills; under consideration in
House of Representatives, the sundry civil
bill; in the course of preparation by House
Committee on Appropriation. General De
ticiency aud FortilicatiOnS bill.
