Miss MEADE AND her MoNEY.-Suit
for an accounting of money belonging
to Rosy Elizabeth Meade was brought
in Washington yesterday against Ed
mund Burke, the attorney, by Miss
Meade's next friend, Thomas Martin.
The attorney is accused of wrongfully
Withholding the young woman's money
from her. Miss Meade recovered dam
ages in the sum of $1,000 from the
Richmond and Danville Railroad Com
pany on March %, 1889, on account OF
an injury she received that resulted in
permanently crippling her. The Court
of Appeals on July IL, 1890, affirmed
the judgment for 81, 900 and costs that
amounted to $3S455. Mr.. Burke col
lected the money, the petitioner stated
in her bill of complaint, and then came
to the court of this city and caused him
self, in company with John 81. Greene,
to be appointed guardian for Miss
Meade. Both men are insolvent in the
State Of Virginia, she stated. MIR.
Burke has refused to turn over a single
penny to the petitioner, who is in des-
titute circumstances, it was claimed,
and she therefore asked the court to
compel him to turn the recovered
money into the registry of the court.

BODY FouNp.-William Mccuen

BODY FoUND.-William McCuen
and Lewis Williams yesterday after
noon found the body of an unknown
white man, about fifty years of age,
floating in the river opposite the fish
wharf. They procured boat and
brought it to the wharf and notified
! the coroner, DR.. Purvis. The latter
ordered that the body should be taken
to the undertaking establishment OF
Mr.. Domaine, where jury, composed
of DIR. Julius Dienelt; Charles B. Mar
shall, James johnson, j. II. Evans, and
William Webster, was summoned. The
man when found had on shirt, black
trousers and new pair of low-quarter-
ed shoes. From appearances ne was q
seafaring man. He had q 5O-cent
piece in his pocket, but there was
nothing on or about his person where
BY he could be identified. No marks
of violence appeared on the body.
There was slight bruise above his
right eye. It's the superstition that
he had fallen off some vessel. The
jury returned the following verdict:
We, the jury, find by the evidence
that the said male stranger came to
his death by causes unknown to the
Jury, but supposed TO be that of drown
ing" Owing to the state ofputrefaction
the body was in, it having been in the
water for several days, it was decided
TO bury it Immediately, and the inter
ment took place last night in Penny
Hill burying ground. Several people
who were standing by while the re-
mains were being taken from the water
were rendered temporarily sick.

when Colonel Morton Marye, the Au-
disor OF Public Accounts, felt embar-
raised in the presence of ladies. Itso
happened that some of the deaf mute
ladies, who are at present visiting Rich
mond, went through the new State
library building to have a look at the
various offices. OF course they entered
the rooms of Colonel Marye's depart.
ment, and were presented to the gal
liant veteran. The latter was unable
to express his appreciation of the call
of his charming visitors in his usual
susye manner, but his embarrassment
lasted only moment or two, when he
seized a pad on his desk and scribbled
the following, which he handed to the
ladies, much to the general amusement
of all concerned 81 never knew before
