!" The Bird Has Flown. J

Atlanta. Ga, Dec. 13.-A man supposed to be most notorious crook quietly and firmly, and without any unnecessary demonstration, slipped out of a window at the police station this morning, and has up to date eluded arrest His name, according to himself, is H. M. Rothery. He was arrested in competitor with a big diamond stolen. He swore his inno- cence in great, heart-breaking oaths. and requested to be permitted to remain under guard of an officer, and not be placed along with low, vulgar men. At lanta's police department, always sus- ceptible, fell an easy victim to Rotherys s guiles, and now it is another instance of the proverbial Bird has flown" Rothery requested his guard to step out side and close the door. The police think he has gone to Conders N. T., from where he claimed to have come.
 Rothery was captured at Marietta, Ga, about twenty miles from here. He says he escaped because he had a chance, and does not fear a trial. His guard has been suspended, and police officers are in con- Stant fear of suspension, by the board.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND LOST He May Know Where He Is, But the Out
 side World Don't.

Norfolk Va. Dec. 13.-President Cleve- land and his party have succeeded today in thoroughly losing themselves to the outside world. for no one knows where tbev are at present. The Violet was to have left Hatteras today. but whether she did so or not is unknown, for gale has been raging over the North Carolina sounds and the wires between k1tty Hawk and Hatteras are down. At Kitty Hawk the wind blew at the rate of sixty eight miles an hour and was proba bly, much heavier at Hatteras. No vessels have arrived from North Carolina, and if is the opinion of sailing masters that the Violet could not have made the run up Pimlico sound under the heavy winds prevailing Another obstacle presents itself to the president on his return. The water in the Albermarle and Chesapeake through which the Violet must pass on her way to Norfolk. now measures only 51b feet, the lowest ever known in that connecting link between Virginia and North Carolina It is probable that the presidential party will have to go to Elizabeth City. N. C.. and come to Nor folk by rail- The storm today around Hatteras is the worst so far this season.

Cotte sits in now and talked with me as naturally

The remark that ghost had occupied that par
ticular chair made Job feel extremely uncomfort
able, and caused him to steal an anxious glance
about the room. When the Hermit had finished, the
cabinet-maker felt trihe nervous and Eamsrked:
"Say, don't forget that I've got to drive back
home by myself. ! don't want to commune with

between them and us that if we lived decent like we

thing good to eat, and change the subject"
The Hermit good-nsturedly accepted this hint and
soon brought out very satisfactory repast with
good wine to wash it down. AS they finished, the
signal for Sydney's departure was heard, parting
cup was qusffed by the three men in silence, and
Job left to get his horses, while Sydney, unaccom
panied, joined two Of his comrades who were wait

SHIP J. 3. BROWN Reaches PORT.
Bark Dominion the Only Sailing Vessel
Yet to he Heard From.

San Francisco. Dec. I.--The overdue
coal ship j. B. Brown. twcnty-eight days
out from Ngnaimo, came into port this
morning. The bark Dominion in ballast,
and now twenty-six days out from San
Francisco for Puget Sound. is the only
one OF the overdue sailing vessels re-
manning to be heard from. A piece of
wreckage, which is supposed to have be-
longed to the missing steamer keweenaw
or Montserrat. was discovered by the
master of the schooner Spokane. that ar
rived yesterday mornaz1g from Port Gam
bic. On December f9, when thrty-five
miles of Cape Flattery. The schooner
passed large ships boat filed with wa
ter. An attempt was made to discover
traces of a name on the little crafts bow
or stern. but the Spokane's skipper could
make out no marks that looked like let
ters. The Spokane wass heading south
against a pretty high sea. and her men
feared TO bring her about for the sake Of
the swamped cutter. They say that the
sea was too high to launch "a boat. The
darelict Is described as being painted
white, about 25 feet 4ong, and five feet
beam. 1t was sunk almost to the gun
wales and did not appear to have any
thing In ii but water.
The J. Is. Brown was in ali of the recent
storms, and as she lies at anchor off Har-
rison street wharf II Is evident that her
conflict with the clements was a severe
one. OFF the Columbia she encountered
the most trying experiences. A succession
of big seas swept the vessel from stem
10 stern, breaking in the bulwarks, carry
ing away one of the boats. and damag-
ing another one so seriously as TO render
1t unfit for service The wo-st weather
Was encountered between thesGth and 18th.
AZ one time it was thought unlikely that
the ship would ever reach port. The steer
Ing gear was disabled eariycin the storm,
the rudder post being split. After time
the crew succeeded In rigging jury rud-
der. After the storm, progress was OF ne
cessity slow. and the crew would have
suffered for lack OF food had they not
fallen in with the Sparrow.

world for brutality Of the murderers

OF course, Turkey has her side of the
case, and it is stated in the form of a
sweeping denial She holds that the
present "outrages, so-called," are due
to assaults and attacks made by the
Christians, especially by the Arme-
mans, and that the Turkish Govern
ment has done all that could be ex-
pected of it in preserving order and
Furnishing the guilty. But as against
this we have the statements of Amer
ican officials that the outrages are
what the dispatches have represented
them to be, only they are three-fold
more cruel, horrible and unspeakable
than as described in print, and often
are of a characer precluding descrip-
ton of them in public journals.
