vide for the erection of a national home for
aged and inf1rm colored persons.
On the House calendar are bills to prevent
desecration OF graves. to amend the charter
OF the Suburban Railway, to define the duties
bills to amend portions of the Revised Statutes
relating to the District. Two very important
steam railway bills were buried among the
100 or more referred to the House committee
but never acted on. These are: One requir-
ing the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to enter
the city ON a viaduct and provide gates and
guards at all crossings, and that allowing the
Norfolk and Western road to enter the city.
A day was fixed twice for an examination OF
the route suggested for the Baltimore and
Ohio viaduct, but very few members OF the
committee made the trip.
In considering the generally unfinished con-
dition of District legislation at the end OF the
session, the reflection will naturally occur
to the people OF Washington that the
present method of requiring the action Of
two committees and both branches OF Con-
gress for the simplest matter of District con-
cern, such as opening an alley. or paving
street, or providing an additional employe
for the city government, initiates materially
against the most efficient and speedy action
of other District legislation of pressing i'm
portance. There is mucn important legisla-
ton unfinished at the close of this session,
which might have been disposed of had the
two District committees and Congress been
relieved of the duty of passing on minor bills,
important enough IN their way, but which
might properly have been determined by the
District Commissioners

With These Words Will Vogel Fell After
Shooting His Mistress.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-William II. Vogel,
thirty-two years old, son OF a wealthy cloth
ier, shot his mistress, Louise Bartlett, and
then killed himself in their apartments in
Harlem this afternoon. Three shots were fired
ut the woman, one of which took effect just
above the left hip and entered the abdomen,
making fatal wound.
The woman is said to have come from Bos-
ton She is handsome blonde OF about thirty
and yogel was jealous because she received
attentions from young man lodging in the
same house.
The first shot fired by Vogel grazed the
woman's shoulder and she then started to
run. crying ''for Gods sake, Will, don't kill
me" Vogel shot twice again in rapid sue
cession and it was the third shot that made the
fatal wound.
After shooting his mistress young Vogel
turned the muzzle of the revolver toward
himself and fired shot into his right side,
Just above the twelfth rib. Then changing
the revolver from his right to his left hand he
sent ball crashing through his left side in
the neighborhood of the heart. The last
shot is supposed to have been the cause OF his
death.
He was standing at the bed at the time. As
he fired the second shot he said: "See,
Louise, I'm dead" His body swayed for an
instant and then he fell upon the bed dead
Vogel, it is said, had several times before
made attempts on the woman's life, on one
occasion doing so while they were in Chicago.
Vogel's wife recently secured divorce. owing
to her husbands intimacy with the Bartlett

liar to all the others except in that across the
face OF the medal there was only one oar.
There was also on exhibition four beautiful
banners, measuring about two feet by three
feet, on which was inscribed Potomac River
regatta, 1894" While all these were very
beautiful and greatly admired, the center of
attraction was the handsome silver cup pre-
sented by the Evening Star. 1t is about ten
inches in height and about five inches in di
ameter and of most appropriate design, there
being on the front an anchor crossed by a
pair of golden oars.
The award OF the prizes and medals closed

MUSIC MINICS WAR.
Innes' Grand Cantata, war and Peace"
with Great Military Display, to Be
Produced on Labor Day.

The first and most successful rehearsal OF
the grand chorus which is to sing at the pro-
duction of Frederick n. Innes cantata "War
and Peace" on Labor Day, September 8,
was held last night in Typographical Tenn
pie, 425 G street.
The chorus was under the direction OF Mr..
n. Du Shane Coward, VINO was assisted by
Dr. Frank j. Woodman. E. d. Tracy, ]. H.
Hunter, and W. A. Domer. The chorus.
which will be limited 10 300. will be formed
from the Choral Society. the Moody Choir,
the Glee Club. and the Mask and Wig Club.
The matter took definite shape last night, and
the number of applicants exceed the limit
required.
''War and Peace is a grand and recent
production of Fred. n. Innis. the able and
popular leader of the Thirteenth Regiment
On G. S. n. Y. Band. 1t is to be produced for
the first time in the Capital on Labor Day,
under the auspices of Columbia Topographic
cal Union, Nc. 101. Baseball Park, at
Seventh street and Boundary. has been se-
cured for the production of the cantata. in
case the weather is favorable for an outdoor
performance. Should the weather be incle-
ment the cantata will be produced in Conven-
tion Hall, which has also been retained.
1t is proposed to have the production in the
people rs possible may hear it and witness
the spectacle. Labor Day being now gen.
eral and legal holiday, it is expected that
many thousands more than any building in
this city would accommodate will attend this
performance, hence the arrangements to pro-
duce the cantata in the open air. The COM
poser and MIR. Coward have determined to
have the performance in keeping with the
occasion.
Great interest is being taken in the pro-
posed grand military and musical outdoor
performance by the Grand Army posts, the
District militia, and the Confederate veterans.
The production of ''War and Peace" will
require about 500 soldiers. and the manage
ment has decided that the organizations par
ticipating shall derive some substantial bene-
fit. 1t has therefore been decided TO dis
tribute the tickets among the organizations
and allow them 80 per cent. on each ticket
they sell. A circular to the different posts
and W. r. c. has been issued by Nathaniel
Bickford. department commander. He heartily
recommends the performance and suggests
the 80 pet cent offer as an excellent means to
replenish the relief fund.
In addition to the large chorus formed last
night there will be two male choruses of about
thirty voices each. One OF these will be for
the Northern camp and the other for the
songs Of the South. E. D. Tracy will get up
the Northern chorus from his G. A. R. choir.
The other will be selected from the Capital
Glee Club, the Mask and Wig Club. and the
Columbia University Glee Club. and will be
under the direction Of W. C. Domer.

MOURNED AS DEAD.
Remarkable Adventures of Man Who
Was Thrice Wrecked

Was Thrice Wrecked.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 1s.-F. B. Bertram, OF
Salem, Mass, who in 1884 left package of
letters with d. Harry Lindeman, the pro-
'prietor of the Lochiel Hotel, this city, passed
through Philadelphia to-day en- route to his
home In Massachusetts,. Bertrar, who has
been mourned as dead, tells remarkable
story of his adventures on the sea during his
long absence.
After travelling for time between Boston
and Philadelphia, Bertram in 1857 sailed for
the South Sea Islands ON the bark Glide. The
Glide WAS caught in cyclone of Tamatave,
Madagascar, but all hands were rescued.
Bertram then shipped aboard the Elexa, a
British bark. The Elexa was wrecked in
December, 1888. and all the crew with the ex-
ception of Bertram persisted. The latter was
washed ashore on one of the Solomon group
of islands, where he was cared for by the
natives until May 8. last, when he was taken
to Melbourne on a Danish brig. He sailed
for San Francisco, reaching there Tuesday.
In the package of letters left with Linde-
man were two $50 notes. Bertram's wife had
given him up for lost.

had an order for 100 tons of bay can

are getting Canadian produce instead
of buying il here. One firm, for in

They are getting oats delivered mp

paying Sc cents for oats and 50 and

see we are not in it with those fellows.
We quit buying hay this morning.
There is big market up in that coun-

handled about $4,000 bushels Of oats
and 30,000 tons of hay. So far this
season we have not handled more than
500 tons of hay, and the prospect is not
very promising. The loss of that mar

Effect of Domestic Trade.

In 1860. after fourteen years of free
trade, there we're l,3I2,0O0 workmen
employed in our manufacturing indus
tries. In 1870 they had increased to
2,054. 600, a gain OF $4,000 year. In
1880 they numbered 2,740,000, or an
increase of $4,000 a year, In 1890
there were Alp 600 hands employed,
an increase of 10000 a year and in
1892 there were over $500, 600 hands at
work, a further increase of over 3O0,-
600 Year under protection.
In 1860 these workers received $780,
600, 600 in wages or S2S9 per hand. In
1890 the pay roll amounted TO S2,282,-
000,0 equal to S4S5 for every man,
women and child so employed. In
1890 the wage carriers of the country,

lion dollars year more money to
spend than in 1860 under free trade.
This was good for business, for manu-

What Las been feared all along. that
Canada hay and oats would soon sup.
plant the local product, has now be-
come stern reality. Large order
for Brown county and Wisconsin hay
for Northern and Eastern markets have
been cancelled, and no more will be
shipped unless it be at much reduced
prices. And this reduction would have

freight.
Places north of here which were for.
merly supplied with farm produce
bought in this city BY local firms, are
now being supplied from Canada.
The prices which are at present being
paid for suca produce here will have to
be lowered or the Canadian farmers
will get the orders.

ing an extensive business in hay, is one
of those who had his orders cancelled.
