Commissioner and Detective Said to
Have Had an Ilterview.
1t is stated that Detective Proctor has
had two interviews with Commissioner
Truesdel. the second one yesterday, and
this fact gave rise to a ruIlor last evening
that the detective had been advised 10
tender his resignation.
There wasno mentionattLe boardmeeting
Of the report of the Investigation, the
subject giving way before other matters
that could not be put off"
Commissioner Truesden stated that Mr..
Proctor was not summoned to his presence
to furnish information touching points i'll
the testimony adduccd at the trial.
IF he saw me-" said the Commissioners,
1T was for an entirely different purpose, !"
and he did not volunteer any information
concerning the real purpose Of the visit.
Later in the evening Detective Proctor
was asked Il his resignation had been
requested il his interview with Col.
Truesdell.
4 have not a word to say" was the re-
sponse. Il have carefully refrained from
talking ever since the investigation was
begun. There are some things in connection
with the case that ! might talk about, but
not for publication. l have declined to
discuss it with the newspaper men"
Did you have an interview with Com
missioner Truesdell?" was asked.
Il have had no interview with the Com
missioner" he replied; but the Commits
sioner may have had one with me-
This last remark is accepted as con-
firmatory of the report that Col. TruesdeI
sent for the detective. Mr.. Proctor added
as a last remark that he was not at all
afraid of having to resign.
The rumored shaking up which is said TO
be in store for the detective force as soon as
the Proctor case is disposed of, was revived
yesterday, due, probably, to the fact that
Inspector Hollinberger called to see Com
missioner TrIesdell. accompanied, or fol
lowed soon after, by Major Moore.
The subject Of discussion may have been
the Proctor matter.

The injury to the chest was internal,

Foster by Policeman Green-Hts
Chest Very Seriously Injured.

The statement that blood would be shed
over the agitation of the shooting of Reuben
Foster in Hilsdale, some time ago, has
been fulfilled. The din OF battle would
hardly surpass the uproar in Hillsdale
yesterday afternoon, when Lawyer John
Moss was assaulted and his head cut open
with a brick. The scene was one that
worked the people up to the highest ten
sion.
Lawyer Moss had just returned to his
home, when his sister, Mrs. Ella Tall
afcrro, rushed in and told him that Charles
Scott had insulted her on Nichols avenue,
applying to her opprobrious epithets. She
said the language was TO vile to repeat.
Moss, very much worked up over her
story, left the house and followed by his
sister and her little boy, hurried TO Douglass
Hall, where be encountered Scott.
He requested an explanation; some say
in an eXciuable manner, others that he was
perfectly calm.

Moss fall to the pavement.

pavement by another right-hander from
Scott. Moss was plucky and as Scott was
bending over for another lick, Moss let

which sent him sprawling TO the ground.
For second only the men sat on the pave
ment glaring at each other.
Scott was the first to get Oh his feet and
as Moss arose the two came together,
clinched and then fen apart.
AS they broke their hold, Scott was seen

he held in his hand. The red weapon de-
scended On the right side OF the cranium and
the lawyer fen upon his knees. He was
game and attempted to rise, but was pre-

Governor Brown has lately been
receiving letters from man named
Benjamin +. Hunter who STYLES
himself the "Chief Ruler of this
generation Of people forever. One
of the letters received by his Excel
lency warns the people OF Baltimore
to prepare for death, and states
that the city will IN short time be
destroyed. The envelope in which
a letter received Tuesday was en-
closed had stamped on it IN large
red letters the words "Message from
the living God; delay not" In
another place in the same flaming
letters were the words "the axe is
now lying at the root of the tree"
The letter head on which the COM
munication was written contained
also in red letters, the words "The
judgement of the living God with
out doubt" also "Depart from me
for | know you not, Amen, "besides
several other texts of Scripture de-
nouncing wrath and damnation
and other pleasant warnings.
The letter follows:
TO the Governor of MARYLAND
and the people of his state, be it
and it is hereby known to you and
all nations, languages and tongues
now Lying in all States aad Terrific
ries in the United States, that am
chief Ruler of this generation of

God your time is out; come down
