The special grand jury, which meets
to-day at IL O'Clock, will examine
William Lakewood, white tramp, on
the charge of numbering Thomas c.
Massie. He was arrested on January
10th by Officer Bower for using threat
ening language to citizens living On
Norfolk avenue. On Monday, the 18TH,
he was fined $50, and in defaslt of pay
ment sent to Jail.
What evidence has been SECURED to
lay the weight and responsibility of the
crime on this half-faiotic tramp has
not boon made public but TINES re-
porter was reliably Informed yesterday
that he would go before the grand jury
to-day.
During the last two weeks Nazle-
wood has been seemingly uneasy, and
walked his cell with the restlessness of
hyena.
Whether or not case will be made
out against him, more than ordinary in
terest will be manifested by the Roanoke
public whom they learn that anyone is
charged with the foul deed, and tbxt
grand jury will actually take actisn
on the case.

ious that there shall be competition in

groan. Robinson then got up and went
out.
Alex Murrell, who lived several doors
away, testified to sesing Burger with a
pistoyin his hand while going back
into Robinson's house. He did not hear
any Shots fired, and consequently knew
but little of the row.

house with Robinson, were sworn and

AM Oil Tank Breaks Loose ark tho Neigh-
borhood Helps Itself.
The entire contents of large railroad
oil sank belonging to the Baltimore
Standard Oil Company, was aecidently
emptied out on the ground yesterday
while an attempt was being. made to
conneet it with the stationary tank.
The car had been placed i'm position,
and John Hubbard and Sam Wallace,
two colored employees, got underneath
to make the connection. Tho cap was
removed when the casket failed to work
from defective spring, and a volume
OF oil rushed out which nothing could
check. The two men were soaked So
verely and became very sick from the
effects Of the oil.
The tank IS located about 400 yards
west o. y nu.croc street, and the gutter
along the railroad throughout tho
whole distance was sluice of oil.
The alarm was at once sounded and
the colored population, armed with pans,
buckets, kettles, and tubs, repaired to
the scene. They procured enough to
supply them for months, and mapy were
covered from head to heel with the
greasy fluid. One man damned the
sluice and secured barrel full.
j. P. Saunderson, the manager, says
the loss is about fifty barrels, valued at
$780, The loss is purely accidental, and
no blame is attached to anyone.

and another for about $4,000. The first
debt has been reduced to about $50, 900,
thus making the preferred liabilities
about $4,000. The total liabilities will
probably not exceed $685.

100000, and since the purchase nearly
SlS0,O00 has been spent upon tho works,
exclusive of about 100000 expended in
the erection of the Mamie Il. blast fur

worth OF S34O, 900 The failure is duo to
heavy Indebtedness and too small q
