AN INCREASE IMPLoRED.
Postmaster Fowikes Uses Facts and
Figures I'm Request.


Figures I'm n Request.
II Is singular, but nevertheless true, that
Nashville, with is one railroad, TO all In
tents and purposes. has more loving atten-
ton from Congress for its postoilicc than
Memphis. As appropriations are based
upon exhibits Of business in reports TO the
postoflcc department, the difference is not
the result Of unfair discrimination in favor
Of Nashville. That city, II seems, does
show up n larger paper business than
Memphis, but in other respects does not
pan out as much 10 the government AS
sistant Postmaster Harris says that Post
master Fowlkcs has been indulging in the
industry Of figuring recently, and upon the
basis OF heavier business a few days ago
addressed letter 10 the department, ask
ing for an increase In the clerical force.
The reply has not yet arrived, but II is
confidently believed the request will be
granted. Mr.. Harris isalso Of opinion that
Nashyilles union depot has much 10 do
with the unfair showing Of her poslollicc
in comparison with the real business trans.
acted in Memphis. Their through mails
do not have TO pass through the Office and
have 10 DO handled by the clerks, but are
attended 10 ut the depot, from which tho
few trains depart. The bags arc simply
transferred from one train 10 another
while here, owing 10 the large number Of
lines, the bags are opened and the mail
pouches assorted. In consequence the
Dostoilicc attaches Of this city are not roll
ng in leisure and luxury.

HUNG AROUND TOO LONG.
JACOB MARTIN. OF CINCINNATI. IN
CARCERATED AGAIN.
Attorney General Peters Discovers
What He Believes win Make It On
healthy for the Young scapegrace--
How He Escaped the Old Charge.

Some men haven't sense enough 10
know when they are playing in luck.
Jacob Martin, the young man from Gin
cinnati whose exploits were detailed in
The APPEAL few days since, Is re-
spected and distinguished member OF this
class. Martin was arrested for swindling
negro man out OF $50, and bound over to
the State His past history was rakcd up,
and proved him thoroughbred scoundrel
who will never be content until he lands
behind prison bars.
Martin is the son OF well-to-do and in
fuential pawnbrokcr of Cincinnati, Of the
Jewish persuasion. Almost from the time
he was able TO appreciate tho value OF
money and jewelry he began to make II
unhealthy for the old mans stock. He
would be arrested, tried, convicted and
sentenced, but by some means secured
his release before the term expired. His
father estimates that his pilfering and
court costs in his behalf amounted to ut
. least 5000. Among his many other Of
lenses was one OF brutally cutting his
sweetheart, beautiful but poor girl,
whose only otlensc was display OF excel
lent sense in refusing 10 marry him.
When he left home two months ago and
finally landed in this city, II was after rob
bling his father OF over 800 worth OF dia-
monds and jewclry.
As previously stated, Martin was bound
over 10 the State by Recorder MADDEN 10
answer prospective indictment for grand
larceny Unfortunately there was only
one witness against him, and that one the
negro who preferred the charge. In his
testimony before the grand jury he con-
iessed TO being pretty full OF stale beer at
the time, was not mentally the soundcst
anyhow, and wasn'tsurc but what lac gave
Martin the money 10 keep for him. With
mo better foundation the bill was returned
into court ignored Martin was released
from jail, but hal the temerity 10 linger
In the city. Acknowledgement Peters was
not entirely satisfied with the turn, and
kept his eyes and esrs open. Yesterday
he gained clew that he believed would
prove valuable. Securing a capies he
placed II in the hands OF Police Officer
John Dohcrty, who found his man in
north Main street saloon. lie was arrest
cd and locked up on the elastic charge OF
yagrncy.
Martin is one Of the most accomplished
laS ON earth. His reason for being in
Memphis, as expressed in the police court,
wis that he had been given aclcrical berth
ON the steamer Granite State, but got left
and came 20 Mcmphisb by rail TO enter upon
his duties here. lie told the same yarn 10
IN ArrRaL reporter yesterday, adding that
he had made several trips 10 this city on
the steamer during the past three months.
The reporter. being familiar with all the
boats officers, reminded Martin that he
must bc mistaken. lie finally admitted
that the only thing he was certain of about
The steamboat business was that the cap |
tain Of the Gnniic State was a great friend |

Frauds in w ool,

A number of the wool dealers in this
section OF the State unite in circular
exposing and denouncing various
frauds perpetrated by the wool growers.
They say:
I'VE believe that the time has arrived
when an effort should be made to re-
trieve the fair reputation the clip once
possessed, and improve the quality and
condition of Ohio ileeces, which we re-
gret to say have been retrograding dur
ing the past twenty years. We feel That
this should be done, or this once favor
ite clip Will sink into utter disTepute,
and disappear amid the trashy woods
which are thrown upon the market
from other sources of supply.
And we would further represent
that for the past several years we have
Ueen annoyed, and caused TO suffer luss
IN consequence OF the dishonest meth
Ods practiced by some wool growers.
Fleeces all right to external appearances
have rolled inside parts of bucks tieec-
es, unwashed tleeces, wool pulled Off of
dead sheep, tags, straw and dirt.
"We take this occasion to notify all
such as are thus fraudulently inclined,
that when such frauds are discovered
we will hold them strictly responsible
under the law"
Following this comes a quotation of
the laws ON the subject, taken from the
Revised Statutes of Ohio.
The circular is signed by sixteen
dealers in wool in Massillon, Medina,
akron, Canton, East Liverpool, Cleve-
land, Wooster, Elyria and other towns
in this part of Ohio.

Musklngum County Murderer Pays

COLUMBUS, o., MAY 17-For the
murder of James Scott William
George, of Muskingum county maid the
penalty of his crime tonight Georoe
has remained Indifferent for weeks mast
and confidently expected a renrieve
from Governor Foraker until ne stood
upon the ScaffOld. He refused spiritnal
advice, and after partaking of a hearty
supper, Blinky Morgan pinned a small
bouquet on the lapel of his coat and
after bidding him goodbye George
walked up the stairway to the scaffold
in an adjoining room. He was accom-
panied by Chaplain De Bruin, Warden
Collin, Deputy Warden Cheering
ton Manager Round and guard.
George walked about the scatfold
somewhat nervous but apparently un-
concerned. The twenty-six persons
who had been permitted to see the
hanging stood crowded together in the
small rJOm. George looked down on
Gheln ana smlllngly said: That's a fire
looking crowd" Then the coarse and
brutal side of the man began to display
itself ANA he soon lost all sympathy
from the spectators. Chaplain De-
Bruln asked him if he would not pray
WIN MN George drew back and said:
~. You cheated me out of A smoke"
JusC DGiUle gong upon the scatl'Oid
George had btt1Iefustd a cigar, having
5moAed q good many. He wanted 10
20 upon Tie scattold smoking
Az l o'clock Warden Coffin read the
death warrant, George leaning against
Lne railing Hitn his legs crossed. He
WAS asked if he had anything 20 say
and replied NO." but, turning to Dr.
t'lemmer, who had taken tile cigar
from him, said: IN remember you;
you know what | mean" When asked
1t he was guilty he replied that he muir
dered Scott in self defence. Chaplain
DeBruin again asked George to make
peace with his Maker, but he declined.
| Turning round, George said: 81 think
Foraker has got more gall than Bar
NUNS bull. don't see how he can
sleep tonight" AT the request of the
Waluen George stepped on the trap,
and Deputy Warden Uherington began
| strapplng his legs and piniOnlng his
arms. George said: you are doing a
| sUUu JOB" Ioa guard he said: "Sk n
ner, 50 long with you. If | never see
| You again the mules yours" To the
guard who was tying him he said:
"You had better draw my head down
to my feet" The black cap was then
put on and the rope adjusted about his
neck. While the second rope was being
put Oh he said: 81 see you are putting
on an extra necktie." His last words
were, Il lnnnk Foraker has a gall on him
| like Barnum's bull"
Warden Coffin pulled the lever.
George shot through the trap and never
moved. In seventeen minutes he was
dead, his neck not being broken.
