How the Inspector Found It In n Pretty
Girls Stocking.
From the Philadelphia News
Mr. G. 3. Barrett, ex-chef inspector Of the
United States secret service, and now superin-
tendent Of Spittall's detective agency, had a
queer experience some time ago in beautiful
little town way down in Maryland. 1t occur
red before his resignation last winter from the
secret service, and was, as you may guess, en-
countered in the line of official duty. United
States postal inspectors are often called upon
to take hold of queer cases, to follow slight
clews, to unrayel tangled stories, and to do it
SO thoroughly that the heads Of the depart
ment shall be satisfied, and secure the results
they seek. But it is not every day that a secret
service official finds himself developing a case
so remarkable, pathetic, and full Of unantici-
pated perplexties that he himself is amazed
and yet that is what happened TO Mr.. Barrett
not 80 very long since, when he got fairly into
the case / mentioned. in that old-fashioned
Maryland village.
There was little postoffice there where lot
ters containing small sums Of money had been
lost, and one fair morning in leafy June found
Chief Inspector Barrett aboard train bound
TO that place aud preparing to entrap the Grim
inal, whoever he might be. Mr.. Barrett's long
experience with this sort Of work had taught
him Just how 10 dig pit for his game. and as
the train neared the village he walked through
the smoker into the mail car, asked for the
mail clerk, showed his commission and said he
had something which he wanted done.
"What is in asked the clerk neryously eye
ing the chief inspector.
"Where is the mail pouch you throw off at
the next 8tOp?"
II was produced.
"Opcn IT,"
II vas opened, for an inspector has absolute
authority not only over mail clerks, but over
the pOstmastcrs Of the largest cities.

The letter contains ten dollar bill. ! want
you 20 examine II, take copy OF tho address,
put IL in that pouch and lock IL with your own

All this was done and Mr.. Barrett went
back 70 his seat ia one Of the day coaches, con-
fdent that the next moyein the game would
answer his expectations.

Nina Ne1v Cases.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, August 22.-There
have been nine new cases of yellow fever dur
ing the last twenty-feur hours, four fremen
among the new cases. There have been no
deaths for thirty-six hours, and none of the
patients now under treatment arc reported
dangerously i'll. Six OF the eight deaths
which have occurred were of persons
addicted to the excessive use of intoxicating
liquors. and the other two were already in
Door health from other diseases when attacked
by fever. All cases are now promptly isolated,
and sanitation and disinfection are carefully
looked after. 1t is intended to keep up the
light against the epidemic with every means
known to science. A thousand pounds
Of bi-chloride of mercury has been
geceived from Philadelphia. This, with other
disinfectants, will be used on the streets, in
houses, etc. The citizens committee on sani-
cation is going over the city a second time with
several hundred scavengers There are abont
-four centers of infection, the greater
part of the city being apparently free
from infections. The atmosphere seems to be
purer than ever before. While the increase
nervous, it was expected by the authorities,
of controlling the disease or materially check
ing its ravages. Indeed, confidence is rather
on the increase. 1t has been recommended
that surveillance be maintained over travel
from the south to intercept persons
from infected parts, and the board
of health has taken action accordingly. 1t IS
not believed that there has as yet been any
cases of yellow fever at any point in Florida
except this city, Manatee, Plant City and
Tampa, which last place is now reported free
from the disease.

'Now will you give me my letter." said the
inspector.
She took It from its hidng-place, handedlt
to him and burst into a flood of passionate
tears
The decoy letter, as Is usual in cases Of this
sort, had been fixed 50 that 1t would be ap.

''Where Is your father?" asked Mr.. Barrett
In the garden" sobbcd the girl.
Mr.. Barrett went out into the garden, found
the old man hoeing, and brought him in, and,
when he was told all, he bowed his white
head and sobbed with his child. The inspec-
tor learned that the girl had admirers, as was
natural that her father was very misery, nos
giving her even the money needed for bright
bit OF ribbon, new hat or new dress THAI
she had been tempted TO take money from the
mails for her wshed-for bits of finery, and had
done so. Mr.. Barrett bitterly accused the old
man of being the one to blame, and he &C.
knowledged it.

Inspector Barrett left after forcing the old
man TO promise his daughter should never be
compelled or allowed to handle the mails
again: and when no submitted his full report
TO the head OF the department at Washington,
his course was fully approved.

One Death Tuesday.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, August 20.-Two new
cases of yellow fever were reported to the
directors of health, and one death only, that
OF j. NJ. Minton at Sand Hills. There are
several suspicious cases which are expected to
be better defined by tomorrow. More vigor-
Gus measures will be taken for the segregation

PLENTY OF DOODLE,
Reports sent out of financial stringency in
local banks are erroneous. All the leading
banks are well supplied. Greely's bank which
posted sixty days notice on account of run of
savings by refugees, has resumed. The bust
ness of the city is light, owing to the strin-
gency OF quarantine, but is going on as usual
A thousand pounds of bi-chloride of mercury
is to be used by the city for disinfeeting. There
PAS been no artillery firing tonight on account
Of the scarcity of primers, and conclusion will
probably be abandoned.
THE SITUATION LOOKS MORE GRAVE,
owing to the failure of the authorities to seq
Eegate patients promptly and effectually to
prevent the formation of a center of infection.
colonel y. j. Daniel, president of the sani-
fary association will today organize sanitary
police. He once saved the city from an cpl
demic of smallpox, and much confidence is
placed Ill him. He will depopulate.
WANTED MONEY.
The infected parts of the city having heard
Shat theigovernment had sent $4,000 for dis
Nribution among the people of the infected
Qlstrict, some persons came to the city from a
uuudISu ni4eS SOutn OF mere TO receive part
OF the amount. Many of them were very in
snlting to the relief committee when told that
there was nothing for them, aud only food for
actual sufferers in the city, and would not be-
lieve that no government money had been re-
Geived
Outgoing newspaper mail is now fumigated
here. Some refugees have returned from Way
cross indignant at the delay in fumigating
baggage there, and say that baggage will
probably be two weeks in passing the station.

BISMARCK, Oak, August 20.--A messenger
from Standing Rock agency CONFORMATION
that the SIOUX commissioners are still there
holding on with tenacity. During the lass
fortnight nothing worthy OF note has trans-
PRED, the commission taking things quite easy,
possibly in the hope that the Indians will be
subdued by their persistence. Today is ration
day for the Indians, and the commission hopes
to make a favorable impression upon the minds
Of the Sioux. Trustworthy information shows.
however, that the Indians have not the least
idea of signing the treaty, and that the COM
mission viii meet with q similar result at the
lower agencies.
Sitting Bull cuts no conspicuous figure at

intimation that by the time they have visited
