A Man Found Alive on l. Street With
Jag and 1885 in Money.
Had it not been for the interference of
Officer Gibson, the RECORD UNION
would have been able to announce this
morning, in startling headlines, the fact
that another man had been murdered and
robbed on l. street
1t appears that a man named Andrew
l.. Berg came to town yesterday. and like
all strangers who want to get drunk and
be robbed, he soon found himself among
the L-street dives. Some meddlesome
person sent word to the Police Station
during the evening that tipsy tender
foot was making an unnecessary display
OF ms money in that quarter. and officer
Gibson was detailed to fetch the fellow
IN, and thus scoop the morning paper.
When Berg was brought to the Police
Station he panned out just 1888. How in
the world he escaped being sand-clubbed
or thrown into the river before the officer
found him is mystery.

MARVELLOUS CURES.
An Aged Backw0odsman Who
Lives in Maine,
Has Cured Several People Who were Crippled
Some from Birth, Simply by Rubbing
His Hands Over Their Bodies.

Especial TO THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch
BANGOR, March 25-General interest is
being excited here by the marvellous cures
wrought by William Brown, an aged back
woodsman who lives near Fort Kent. in the
Aroostook region, and who had not been out
of the woods for thirty six years until last
week, when he came to Bangor, accompan-
led by prominent resident of Houlton.
Brown has cured several persons who were
crippled, simply by rubbing his hands over
their bodies, and several cures performed
by him Sunday, are the talk of the city.
Sunday he instantly cured two men of
rheumatism by rubbing their limbs. A
crippled stable boy was treated by Brown
and IN few minutes he was dancing about
apparently cured. A well known Judge was
also treated for an aliment and expressed
himself as greatly surprised In the after
noon Brown visited the home of Aza War
rem, prominent resident, and worked his
most remarkable cure on his son, Willie
Warren, who had been on crutches for
for nearly a year. After Brown had
kneaded and rubbed his flesh for fifteen
mintes the boy dropped his crutches, and
later, went up stairs without assistance
Brown knows nothing of spiritualism or
religion.

whitney 8 Sons. Car Mheels. Embarrassed.


PHILADELPHIA, March 25.-The firm of
A. Whitney s. Sons, car wheel manufac-
turers, is financially embarrassed. The
hrm is now composed of John R. and James
,. Whitney, the surviving sons of the
founder. Rumors of the embarrassment
OF the firm are confirmed by James S.
whitney, who declined to give any details
ABOUT the matter beyond admitting the
bare fact.
The car wheel works were founded by
Asa Whitney in 1913. When the works
were built they were among the finest in
the country and an immense trade was
quilt up. The founder died in 1874, leaving
an estate valued at 81, 900, 900, and the man
agen2ent of the concern to his three sons
George, John r. and James S. After the
ueath OF the father, it was found that he
mao lett large dover TO his daughter who
nsd married Bishop Howe, of Reading
! inns dover was secured in the manufac-
tory. A couple Of years ago it was found
the interest on this inheritance had lot
oeen regularly paid and an appeal was
made to the courts. An order was made
assessing the unpaid interests and the
plant is said to have been mortgaged to
secure its payment
George Whitney died in 1885, leaving an
estate valued at $500, 900. John r. Whit
ney had also retired from the firm but at
the time OF placing the mortgage he was
constrained to come back into it and is now
the senior member. Since then the works
have been doing fair business but have
been gradually falling behind younger es-

WHITES AND BLACKS,
The Negro Population in the
South Does Not Increase
So Fast as the Caueasian-This is Shown by
Census Bulletin-Faise Figures of
the Census of 1870.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-The census
bureau has in preparation bulletin giving
the population of the south Atlantic and
south central states, Missouri and Kansas.
by races. The total population embraced
in this count is given as %, 375, 259. of which
Ii, sos, 205 are white; $685., 1855 colored and
10,SSS Chinese, japanese and Indians. In
the states included were found in 1890 if
teen-SixteenthS of the entire colored popu-
latlon of the United States. So far as the
purpose Of ascertaining the percentage of
increase of the colored population is con-
cerned, the returns of these states are
adequate. The abnormal increase in the pOp-
ulatlon is whatin known as the s'biack belt
during the decade ending in 1880, led to the
popular belief that the negroes were in
creasing at much larger rate than the
whites. The facts now ascertained sustain
the theory that the high rate shown in
1850 was apparent, not real, and was due
to imperfect enumeration in the southern
states in 1870. During the past decade the
coiored race mas not held its own
against the whites. In but three
decades, that is from 1900 10
1880, during part Of which time the slave
trade was in progress, has the colored race
increased more rapidly than the whites.
Since 1880 the whites have steadily in
creased at a more rapid rate than the
colored people. This increase was not eff
fected by immigration, for with the excep-
ton of Kansas and Missouri, these states
received comparatively few immigrants.
In 1880 there were nearly six colored in
habitants to ten white; but this proportion
has been reduced to trife more than four
at the present date, or By nearly one third
its amount. The deficiencies of the ninth
eral tables are given which show the move
ments of the colored element OF the popula-
ton during the last half century. There has
been no extended movement OF this ele-
ment since the time of the civil war. In
deed, with the exception of the District Of
Columbia, the border states appear to have
lost rather than gained, and during the
last decade there becomes perceptfole a
southwark movement of the colored ele
ment from the border states into those
bordering on the gulf, particularly intc
Mississippi and Arkansas. In these two
states has resulted in producing a more
rapid increase of the colored element than
the Whlte.
