DEATH OF GEN. EKIN.
An Ofhcer Who Was Well known Here Dui
ing and Since the War.

An Omcer Who Was Well known Here Dur
ing and Since the War.
Rev. DR.. Butler, pastor OF the Memorial
Lutheran Church, today received a telegram
from Louisville, Ky, announcing the death
there last night Of Gen. James A. Ekin, United
States army. retired. Gen. Ekin was born in
Pittsburg in 1919, and at the beginning of the
civil war entered the twelfth Pennsylvania in
fantry as first lieutenant and regimental quar-
termaster and reached the grade of captain
and assistant quar- termaster in the volunteer
army. In 1868 he was admitted to the regular
army with similar rank and assigned to duty
in Washington in February. 1864. He was af-
terward promoted TO be lieutenant colonel and
colonel in the qUartermaster generals Office
where he continued until 1870. After that
he was made chief quartermaster in the
department of Texas and also acted in
a similar capacity in the depar sment of the
south. He was breveted brigadier general
In the volunteer army and a major general in
the regular army for distinguished services in
the war. In August. 1888, he was placed on the
retired list of the army.
Gen. Ekin was very well and fayorably
known in Washington. where he spent a num-
Der of years of his life. He was of a CHEEKY,
bright disposition and made many friends,
who will sincerely mourn his death.
He was an earnest and devoted member
Of the church. belonging to the United Presby-
terrain faith. While he was stationed at WASH
ington there was no congregation of his fol-
lowing located here, so he worshpped
with DIR. Butler while he was in
charge of st. Paurs English Lutheran
Church and afterwsrd with him at the Memo
rial Church. Since his retirement Gen. Ekin
has resided in Louisville, but whenever he
came east he always paid a visit to the Memo

q loving tribute to his memory.

Affairs Reaching a Crisis When Blood VIII
Be Shed.
LONDON March 27.--It is not often that Lord
Salisbury interferes in Irish affairs, and the
statement that he had a conference with Mr.
Balfour yesterday relative to the situation at
Sligo emphasizes the danger of the situation.
This mornings advices state that affairs seem
to be reaching crisis when bloodshed will be
unavoidable. Street fights ore of daily occur
renee, and one side spares no provocation
likely to madden the other. The police are ON
the scene in large numbers and military are
being fastened to reinforce them; but the DO
lice are so exhausted with continuous service
that it is feared they would not be efficient in
the event of a general riot.
The Parnellites claim that the priests are &C.
casioning most Of the trouble, and the priests
answer that they are doing no more than their
duty. The police have been strictly enjoined
to take no side, but only to preserve the peace
Mr.. Parnelfs friends in London and elsewhere
have, it is said, earnestly requested him to keep
away from Sligo, it being even limited that there
is an oath-bound organization that will not
stop short Of treating him as Cronin was treated
in America.
To all advice, however. Parnell turns q deaf
ear, going into the combat with an energy that
partakes Of frenzy.

a fine of $50. Execution Of sentence was sus-
pended upon the woman's promise to break up
the crowd Of disorderiy characters who had
frequented the place, but she failed to do this
and last night the police made another raid.

arrested.
This morning the entire party was marched
into the Police Court and Jennie was again
charged with being the keeper Of disorderly
house.

Davenport and Wash Tillman were the male
visitors and the females were Annie Brown
and Annie Horrid.
Anderson, Simms and Davenport claimed
that they worked at the race track and their
personal bonds were accepted.
Tillman claimed that he was entitled to his
discharge because he was sick. but the Judge
thought he should be treated like q dog with
the hydrophobia and should be locked up to
prevent the spreading Of the disease. SEN
tence Of sixty days was imposed.
Annie Horrid Is known 'Queen Of the
Commons" and she was given ninety days.
Annie Brown was only given Ave days. In the
case Of the woman q jury trial was demanded
and bond was fixed at $500.

How An Indiana Family Tried to Escape the
Assessors.
DELPHI, IND, March 27.-A little over a year
ago Abner H. Bowen died at his home in this
city, leaving a fortune, mostly in personal
property. of $4,000, 900. He had scarcely been
buried when the officials of this county moved
on his estate to collect back taxes on property
that had been hidden from the assessors, and the
series of rows it raised would I'll large book.
The elder Bowen, although possessed of mil
lions, listed for taxes only on a few thousands,
move during his lifetime to compel him to
pay taxes on all the property he
owned. The Bowen heirs failed to
agree among themselves upon az administrator
and the court appointed the county treasurer
under the statute to act in that capacity. The
heirs fought his appointment as being inimical
to the interests of the estate and took the mat
ter to the supreme court, but the higher court
decided against them.
THE HEIRS DEdoRALIZED.
S,e heirs kept up the fight until Wednesday,
wen the attorneys for the county filed a state
ment with the auditor asking that personal prop
erty to the value Of over 81, 600 900 be placed
the tax duplicate against the estate of Abner
H. Bowen. This demoraliZed them. They Sc
cretly commence to pack up their possessions.
Trunks, valises, satchels and boxes were
DTOuBut lntO anu III tuem were
stored notes, mortgages, bonds and stocks.
With these in their possession the heirs de-
parted on the midnight train and the widow is
now in Urbana, Ill.
ALL TAKE TO FLIGHT.
Edward Bowen is in Chicago and A. T. Bowen
and Eta Bowen are on their way to Philadel-
phia. All have given up their residence in
Indiana except Nathaniel Bowen, who retains
the real estate 1t is estimated that the value of
the property carried away is in the neighborhood
of 81, 600, 00O When the announcement of the
retreat Of the heirs was made yesterday no one
appeared more surprised than their attorneys
who declared that they had not received hint
Of the intended fight of their clients.
REASONS FOR THE MOVE.
Two reasons are given for the sensational
move IF the Bowen heirs. They desired to
get their possessions out Of the state before
the assessor came around next month to
list property under the new law, and they
also figure on having the tax suits
transferred to the United States court on the
ground that they are non-residents. The
bank in this city, owned and operated by the
family, is in the hands of an assistant
cashier and is meeting all obliga-
tions, many depositors having withdra wn
their money. 1t was anticipated that when the
news was generally circulated in the country
a run would be made upon the institution, but
there was no run on the bank today. and conf
dence in its ability to meet all obligations is
unim paired.

NOT A VERY GOOD FRIDAY.
4 clustering Wind and . snowstorm-The
Chances for Easter.

finances Tor Easter.
Today is Good Friday. and it isnts very
good Friday either. Indeed. il is beyond q
doubt about the worst imposition in the shape
OF day that has been foisted upon the help
less, unfortunate public Of Washington for
very many months.
Just why il should happen to be 90 unutter-
ably bad on this day Of all others, this day with
90 fair a name, can but be conjectured.
The present unpleasantness Is the result OF
severe atmospheric disturbance TO the south
OF the city. which is happily moving to the
northeast and will before long be but q
memory.
WHERE IT STARTED.
This particular storm started at Brooks
Ranch, Utah. last Monday and travelled in q
southeasterly direction until it reached
the Texas line on the same day.
when II began to curve more 10
the east. At Waco Tex, on Tuesday.
the storm took an abrupt turn
to the northeast. but on entering the state Of
almost reached Mobile yesterday morning when
IL made a sharp change in its course and went
shooting of to the north
At Nashville last night it suffered domestic
difficulty and from some unknown cause il
split into two divisions each taking an indie
T.
the north, the other taking a tangent TO
the southeast toward the South Carolina coast.
1t had reached the vicinity of Charleston this
morning, and thus drew into il the northeast
erly winds as far all locations on this side of
1t are concerned, causing the lower temperature
and the dampness.
The ordinary course Of these storms Is up
the coast and thus Of to sea or else up into
New England.
AT THE SIGNAL OFFICE.
The signal Office this morning estimated that
the storm would probably not take more than a
day to pass a given point, for predictions were
issued Of clearing weather in the Carolinas for
tomorrow.
Hence, if there should be no slip in the pro-
gram the storm should get out of our way by
tomorrow night, and thus there is reason
to believe that Easter morning will dawn
brightly.
OF course there is every chance for q slip in
this arrangement and a prediction of a fair
Sunday might be a little risky as these coast
storms frequently hang fire at the mouth OF
Chesapeake bay for two and sometimes three
days at a time.
There was no change in the temperature here
last night, as the thermometers had fallen
the night before sufficiently to allow
morning the record was s. degrees or freezing,
but this let up a little during the day. There
