stated to-day by a prominent Georgetown

Canal that that waterway would be ready
for traffic throughout its entire length In
about four weeks, The steam dredge which
was built in Rock Greek has been slowly
making its way through the locks and lev

very rapid, as there is but little accumula.
ton of deposit there. The dredge company
is firmly convinced that the work can be
done in four weeks.
"Work has been begun on the wharves
about Georgetown, and before long they
will be in condition to give employment to
the hundreds of idle colored men who, in
prosperous times of canal traffic, find en-
ployment for their muscles in unloading the
cumbersome barges of their cargoes of wheat
and coal"

that this would put a stop to the work, but
later the injunction was lifted, certain rea-
sons being found to justify this course with,

did not care to have anything done to pre-

Wade's property does not exceed more than
500 square feet, and the managers could not
understand why he waited until so late a
date to ask for an injunction,
The trouble arose from an overlapping
deed, but the claim of the company rests on
deed given in 1864, and they say that the
injunction could not possibly stand, as their
titles were perfect Without some unior.

Of Mr.. Oliver II. Martin, native Of Frede-

years been engaged in the business Of $
plasierer at this place. Mr.. Martin had for
some time been engaged In work st Gar
reit Park and on Thursday came here and
stopped with friends where he had formerly
boarded, complaining that he was sick. On
Friday he appeared TO be bester and walked
around during the day. IS he-alSo did on
Saturday morning, AfterwSri he repaired
to the house where he was stopping and At
4.o'clOck came out Of his room and requested
the lady Of the house to send for 3 physi-
clan, As he believed he was dying. This
was at once done and the doctor arrived in
a few minutes and found him in dying
condition. RestOrstiyes were applied, but
were of no effect, and in short time he was
dead, Amer death note was found in his
bed containing these lines: dudley owes

age and leaves wife and three children in

William II. Martin, arrived here and at 2
O'Clock in the afternoon the remains were
taken by him to his home, The suddenness
and somewhat singular circumstances con-
nected with the death of Mr.. Martin at first
caused a suspicion that he had taken poison
with suicidal intent, but later Investigation
tiisproyed this theory.

AN EASTERN AUTHORITY.
1t states That Congress Will Pass a Free
Coinage silver Bill This
Session,

New YORK, Dec. 1S.-According to the
World it is pretty certain that bill for
the free coinage of silver in some form
will pass the Democratic house and the
Republican senate during the present
session. Theplan practically agreed upon
by those who will control the matter in
the house, says Washington special, is
briefly this: To stop all purchases of
silver by the government, to throw open
the mints to the free coinage of all silver
hereafter to he produced from American
mines and to guard against the unloading
of foreign silver upon US by system of
notification and inspection. similar to
that devised for the guarding of the sugar
bountes.
Tie dispatch also states that Speaker
Crisp has fully decided to make Bland
chairman of the committee on coinage
and that majority of the members will
be advocates of free silver.

THE EXPLOSION In new YORK.
Henry L. Norcross, of Boston, Unidentified
as the Bomb ThrGwer.

One picture is q portrait of Henry l..
Norcross, of Boston, from photo taken
nine or ten years ago; the other, of the
ghastly head on exhibition at the Morgue,
and said to be the head of the man who
threw the bomb in Russell Sage's offices
On December 4th. 1t appears pretty clear
at the present time that both are like
nesses of one and the same person. A
former school-mate of Norcross indentifies
the head at the Morgue as that of his old
acquaintance. NorCross left his home at
Somerville, few miles from Boston, the
day before the explosion. His mother
identifies fragm snts Of outer clothing
and also pieces of underwear which had
been worn by the bomb thrower, as those
Of her son, the missing Norcross.

The Durango Famine.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec. 1S.-Reliable
advices from Mexico indicate that half
has not been told of the distress in the
famine districts. In chihuahua, DuraD-
60 and Coahuila there are thousands at
the point of starvation. This is true of
the lower classes who are not fortunate
enough to be peoned to masters for a
scanty subsistence. Beggars throng
every village and city, imploring aid. In
many places, the starving have sacked
the homes of the more fortunate ones
and even robbery and murder have been
resorted to to secure the means to sus-
tain life. In the state of Durango the
government has taken a relief movement
and is selling corn at $3.50 per bushel,
the actual cost.
