Foreign Born Adult Male
Citizens Lead.
Have Made a Gain of 208.S2
Per Cent. in Ten Years.
Native Born Adult Males Made Gain
of Only 21.04 Per Cent.

The bolletin issued by the State Census
Bureau today deals with the political con-
dition and nativity OF the adult male
population of the State. According to
the returns there were in Rhode Island
en- June OF the present year 112 $50 males,
of which number 80, sos were citizens and
22, 30i were aliens. OF the citizens So, 709
were legal voters, while 3837 were not.
The term legal voter Is used to designate
all citizens who had resided two years or
longer and whose names would have been
placed on the voting lists had they been
taxpayers or had registered according to
law. The words non-voter denotes those
citizens who had not been two years in
this State or who for other reasons were
disqualified from voting.
or the legal voters 6209 are native born
and "a, 615 foreign born. OF the ron-voters
30i0 are native and S07 foreign born. The
statistics Of the census of 1856 In regard
TO voters and non-voters are not available
for purposes OF comparison, because they
were collected prior to the extension OF the
suffrage under Article VII of the amend
ments to the Constitution. Ii is POS
sible, however, to note the changes dur m
the last decade in the number, citizens hip
and nativity of the adult males.
In 1885 there were 50, S14 native born,
1922 foreign born adult male citizens and
rs, bSl aliens, making TOTAL Of ID, III
adult males. Compared with the present
census these returns show sn increase OF
IL, $40 native born and II, 100 foreign adult
male citizens; decrease OF 1877, and q
total increase of q, 1873 adult males during
the decade. Native born adult male citi-
zens have increased 21.0 per cent, for
eign born adult male citizens increased
20S. 50 per cent. aliens have decreased 5. 81
per cent, and the adult male population
of the State has increased 31.65 per cent.
Native born citizens IL 1885 formed
GIT per cent, foreign born, $50 per
cent, and aliens q. 63 Ger cent. OF the to-
tai adult male population. On the first OF
June of the present year the native born
citizens formed 5771 per cent, the for
eign born %. SO per cent, and the aliens
10 76 per cent. of the total adult male pop
ulation. The superintendent OF census,
Henry T.. Tiepke, says In regard To the
foreign born that while the male adults
have increased az. 50 per cent. during the
last decade the adult male citizens have
increased 20S. 50 per cent, which is an in
dicatlon of the activity in naturalization
during IT, last ten years. In 1880 the

NO TRACE OF RAINIER.

Silsby & Co.'S Defaulting Manager
ElUdes he eDetectiyes' Shrewdness.
W. S Rainier, the deGaultipg manager
for Silsby & Co, has covered his tracks
SO completely and thoroughly that not even
clew 10 his whereabouts has been dis
covered by the detectives who are looking
for him
1t was at first thought, IN view of the
fact that he had left his wife at the Howard
House, that he was himself in hiding in the
city and would crdcavor TO communicate
with her. but she Informed Detective Carter
yesterday that she had heard absolutely
nothing from him since his disappear
ance
Mrs. Rainier is still at the Howard
House, but positively refuses TO talk TO
any ore except the detectives and the rep
rcscntatiyes OF the firm in regard to the
matter. As stated in yesterdays Times,
she was left with only a few dollars IN
her possession, and unless she receives re-
mittanccs from friends it is probable that
the police department VIII be forced TO
provide for her until she can return to
her home
She has, so far, given TO information
in regard TO herself, except what was
printed in The Times yesterday morning.
The detectives do not believe that Mrs.
Rainier had any idea of her husbands in
tention to leave the city, and they think
the circumstances tend TO show that K amer
himself did not contemplate his step until
he found that the investigation resulting
from the irregularities in his accounts
last Saturday would result in disclosing
his crooked transactions. 1t is thought
that had he contemplated his dishonesty
when he took the position he would have
waited until he could secure a large amount
OF money before rendering himself liable
to an investigation

DYING AT RIDERS CASTLE
Percy Brown, the King Of Body
Snatohers, Is Paralyzed.
His Partner Was Jansen, Who Was
Rendered Famous by Stealing Muir
derer: Shaw's Remains.

Percy Brown, known years ago to the
police of Washington as King of the Body
Suatchers," lies dying at Ryder's Castle,
a couple of doors from the Sixth precinct
station house on New jersey avenue. A
little less than year ago Brown was
stricken from paralysis, from which he
has never fully recovered, and repetition
of the attack within the past few days has
brought him to the verge of death.
Browns man witha remarka BILE history.
Born in Odessa, Russia, the 'Granary of the
World.' he came to this country an exile
when only a boy, ,andfor great many years
he has pursued the calling which gained
for him the above sobriquet He has fire.
quently been raided by the police and has
served several terms in penitentary.
The last raid, aud the one which probably
broke him up, was when he kept 4 place in
Northeast Washington about ten years
ago. 1t was an old tumble down frame
house on high bluff, before that section
of the city had been graded, and underneath
aud back Of the house deep cellar had
been dug.
In this cellar, Brown and his partner,
another Russian, named Jansen, kept the
bodies until they Were disposed Of When
several corpses were discovered aud
musty graveyard smell was over everything
but no bodies were found.
Jansen became famous by taking the
body of Charlie Shaw, who murdered his
sister, from the Jail after he was executed
and hauling it around to the different
medical colleges, and trying to dispo Sc
of it. When he was arrested on that oc-
casion the head of the corpse was sticking
out one window and the feet out the op-
posite one, and Jansen was coolly sitting
ON the seat of the vehicle.
He AFTERWARDS delivered lecture ex-
planning and defending body-snatchiug.
Ah elaborate article had been written for
him to read, but his managers in an effort
to brace him up, gave him little too
much liquor, and he became too drunk
to read the manuscript. When he went
upon the stage he could only deliver a
rambling sort of lecture, and number of
medical students who were present made
it hot for him. and it required police in
reference to prevent them from mobbing
him.
Brown is q remarkable looking man,
about sixty-five years old, fully six
feet tall, with heavy beard and big
bushy eyet-ows. His illness has worn him
down considerably, and his once mU scular
frame is now thin and weak.

POLITICS BROUGHT TO BEAR
Comptroller Bowler's Refusal to
Pay the Sugar Men.
Carlisle Has Been Threatened With
the Possibility of Louisiana
Going Republican.

Senator Caffrey, Representative Myer and
Judge Semmes, the latter counsel for the
sugar bounty claimants Of Louisiana, had
an audience yesterday with Comptroller
Bowler of the Treasur yDepartment, regard
ing the unpaid sugar bounty for the fiscal
year 1894.
The three gentlemen repeated the argu-
ments they had previously made, but the
comptroller insisted that he saw no reason
to change the position previously taken
by him.
1t is said that Comptroller Bowler, may,
if he chooses, reserve his ultimate decision
one year, but it is not believed he will do SO.
1t is thought that his decision after the
formal hearing next week, W i'll be rendered
as speedily as is consistent with the i'm
poItance of the case.
Should it remain unchanged, Congress will
be asked to amend the law under which he
was appointed, so that his duties shall be
of a purely ministerial character.
Secretary Carlisle has been informed by
these Louisiana gentlemen that the con-
tinued Withholding of the money will result
in q defeat for the Democratic party in
Louisiana, and that nothing can prevent
the State from swinging into the Republican
column next year unless the money shall
be paid within q reasonable period
1t is feared by the Louisiana people II
the money be not paid before the meeting
of Congress next winter, a bill will be in
tIoduced to repeal the law under WI hich the
bounty is to be paid.

emf Dismisses Union Men.

men employed on that road Joined the
union in body, and the superintendent
threatened then to make all union men
walk the chalk line in the future. The
men say that he is tryannical and offensive
in every possible way to them, and has
stated that he would have the wives and
children OF all union men Dcggars before
he got through.
SUAlMARILY DISCHARGED.
Monday night on the last trip of his car
Gripman Martin allowed Conductor Moore
TO run his grip from Fifteenth street north
east to Second street northeast. No pas
sengers were Gu the car during the run and
no stops were necessary. AT Second street
Martin again took the grip and Moore re-
turned To the rear of the car.
The next day both men were hauled up

the same night Gripman Johnson, who
withdrew from the union some time ago,
was seen running his car, sitting on the

his feet on the grip wheels. He was called
up by the superintendent and suspended
