CaDture.

The sheriff of Stockton, California,
MIR. Thos. Cunningham, is at present in
Ogden, having in charge man by the
name of Hiram James, who. it is al
leg d, murdered L. N. Daugherty on
the night of April Sd, 1887, at Lodi, San
Quentin Co. California. The murderer
was caught at Pocattll by Constable
Campbell, and taken to HALEY where
he was locked up, year and a day
after the murder had been committed.
AS near as we can ascertain, the pris-
oner along with others had been card
pIa ing, when dispute arose between
JANE .and a man named Harrison;
after some parleying James drew pis
toll and took aim at bis disputapt, but
the ball struck Daugherty, causing
death. It is said that the prisoner is
somewhat notorious as q gambler End
debauchee and had.on previous occa-
sion stabbed man named Pigall, for
which offensa he was sentenced to five
years in the penitentiary; but after
having been incarcerated for two years
was pardoned by Governor Stoneman.
The sheriff went west with the pris-
oner last night.

Hook and Ladder.

We were rather taken by surprise last
evening, while in our Office, by the
lingling of bells. Upon opening our
window to ascertain the cause, we dis
covered that the hook and ladder boys
were mounting the roof of our building
with surprising agility. We had no
reason to apprehend any danger, how
ever, as tle boys were only out for an
airing, or in other words, drill, one
important part of which is, we presum me,
making themselves familiar with the
upper portion of the city editces by
starlight. After short season the ex-
plorations ceased and we felt easier, as
we had at first imagined that our
neighbors had not been as care
full as we usually are, and had, per-
haps, left smouldering embers which
had developed into flame. We do not
envy the boys, as we feel too old to
mount ladders in double quick time,
but we say Honor to the Brigade"
We may n0Iice in this connection that
the telephone wires seemed to be rather
in the way of expeditions work, as each
man, on ascending or descending, was
compelled to stop and raise them over
his head. Doubtless this cannot we'll
be obviated. Another feature we
observed, and we must ask to be ex-
cused for being so critical, was that the
upper section of the ladder was not
detached as speedily as might be
desired.

Fire.

At midnight or thereabouts, on
Thursday, an alarm of fire was heraldad
by the pounding and the sounding of
the bells. The energetic and faithful
brigade turned out and dashed along
the street toward the scene of the fire,
which was located at one of Hon. D. II.
Peery's houses on Fourth and Spring
Streets. On the arrival of the fire boys at
the spot, the fire was scarcely to be seen,
bat upon examination it was found to
proceed from under the porch, and
what might have developed into con-
fagration, if it had not been discovered
in time, was promptly extinguished.

LAST MEETING.-The present City
Council held the last meeting of its two
years term last Tuesday evening. The
Committee on Public Grounds and Build
ings was instructed to inquire into the
safety and cost of erecting tower on the
City Hall on which to place the town
clock. Officer J. B. Lickliter having left
the city without notifying the Mayor, on
June 9th, the Mayor appointed Chas. E..
Gregory on the force on June 18th, in
place of Lickliter. On Lickliter's return
June 18th, he did not report his return to
the Mayor. These statements were COM
municated by the Mayor to the Council. On
motion of Mr.. Bargamin, the Mayors ac-
tion in making the appointment was en-
dorsed, officer Lickliter suspended, and
the matter referred to the Police Com
mittee for investigation. Mr.. Lickliter
has made a reliable, faithful officer, and
it is to be hoped full Investigation of the
case will result in his favor.
We are glad to learn since writing the
above, that the Police Committee, Messrs.
Teabo and McMahon, met yesterday even

tion recommending that Mr.. Lickliter be

STAUNTON. VA, June 2 st. :
There is scarcely anything doing now in
the grain line and there will be even less for
the next few weeks. The sound of the Mower
is now heard on nearly every farm in the
county. We are in the midst of Hay harvest.
Farmers may be congratulated on the good
weather now existing. Grass crop will be
half TO two-thirds of the crop last year.
Farmers have learned that to get best prices
hay must be cut early and cured without too
much exposure.
Bradstreets of N. Y, Cor the week ending
last Saturday reports some improvement in
the distribution of merchandise throughout
the country. 1t says:
''For eleven months total exports of wheat
(official figures) have been 60, 999.737 bushels,
against IS, ego, 1853 bushels in 1SS6-S7; of
wheat flour 10, 800, 629 barrels, against TO- 446,
223 barrels, and of Indian corn %, 1876, 1856
bushels. Money at New York is stagnant and
easy. Coffee has been depressed, with free
receipts of new crop at Brazilian ports and
heavy selling. After moderate reaction the
decline was LIS a on near and $40 O. lie.
on later options. Moderate rains have fallen
throughout the Kentucky tobacco section,
and the crop prospect is thereby somewhat
improved. About fve-eghths of the contem-
plated acreage is planted.
"Flour is dull, having declined on the week
about 10 cents. Wheat declined on the week
81 cents. Corn declined on the week L. cents
Oats have been irregular, but closed at the
opening prices. Pork is steady. Lard is ire
gular and has declined four points,
prices of brown and bleached cottons are
well sustained, and the tendency is upward.
Woolens are unchanged and unsatisfactory.
Prints are strong and active. Excepting one
week in February, stocks have not been SO
small as they are now for eight years. Manu-
facturer's demand for wool is checked, and
the stoppage of some machinery, pending re-
ceipt of new orders is likely. Mills will buy
directly in the West more largely than usual
this year"

A New Enterprise IN Staunton.

The firm of II. V. Rogers & Co., have
rented from Mr.. J. D. Crowle one of the
side buildings of the Hale House, and will
open there in two or three days a depot
for the sale of homeless meats. 1t is a
branch of the two houses of Wilson q
Rogers in Philadelphia and Atlantic City.
The firm has selected Staunton as a
point from which the two railroads reach
all the watering places, and will supply
homeless meats-beef tenderloins, homeless
rib rolls, sirloin butts and strip lolns-
which will be sent in refrigerator boxes
from the refrigerator here. The Natural
Bridge Hotel, Luray Inn, Hotel Roanoke,
Exchange and Ballard at Richmond, At
lantic Hotel at Norfolk, are now supplied
by this firm. The firm does not sell by the
pound, but will sell to the butchers here
who may wish to buy the homeless meat.
Our people will be delighted to see the en-
terprise succeed.

The WV. and Southwestern Ry.

This projected railway which, if built, is
to run by Staunton on its way from Wash
ington city to the Southwest, continues to
show a slight stir. Shenandoah citizens
have subscribed to 101 shares; among the
subscribers being such practical men as
D. S. HenkeI. Rosenberger e Shirley. j.
N. Brenaman, e. q. Henkel, and others.
The amount subscribed in Shenandoah is
conditioned upon it's being applied to road
construction in the limits of that county.
The shares are 1875 each. A meeting was
held last week, at Fairfax Z. H., at which
1t was stated that London syndicate
would furnish $40, 100000 to the building
of the road, taking the company's 4 per
cent. bonds for 80 years. A committee was
appointed to solicit local subscriptions to
the road. The Fairfax Herald" thinks
the prospect for the road is not very en- :
couraging but landholders can safely sub
scribe, "because they cannot be called
upon for their subscriptions until work is
actually ccmmenced''

Fatal Railroad Accident.

On Sunday morning. the city was full of
rumors about an accident which had oc-
Cured On the Virginia Midland railroad
Saturday night. About 10 O'Clock Sunday
morning what was left of the wrecked
passenger train arrived in Staunton.
Among those on board were Secretary
Whitney of the Navy, and his wife and
daughter Pauline, who proceeded on to
their destination Millboro. Mr.. Ruck-
man, of Highland, another passenger on
the wrecked train, got off here and we Mt
on home. His appearance is described as
that of man who had been rammed bod
lily into a backyard clay pit so thiekly
covered with mud was he. He had not,
however, been wounded. The accident
seems 70 have had the same origin as the
Greenwood tunnel disaster on the Z. &
o. road making up lost time by running
at rate around curves only safe on a
straight line. The Louisville express left
Alexandria at $50 Saturday evening, and
stopped Is minutes at RavensWood to re-
pair it's automatic whistle. It then pro-
ceeded at high rate of speed to make up
the lost time. In turning curve near
Clifton the engine jumped the track drag
ging with it the three forward cars. OF
these, only the baggage car went down
the embankment with 1t, the other two
staying on the bank, and the sleeper re-
naming on the track. Not a passenger
was wounded, but four of the company's
men were kllled-Engineer Hantzmon ::
Telegraph Operator, Chas. P. Mayo; Bag
gage-master Poss, and Fireman Lee
Makeley. The Express agent Thomas
Hardy. was severely injured, and conduc-
tor Pitts knocked senseless.
