MoY WING Is DEAD.-Moy Wing, a
Chinese laundryman, at 719 Ninth
street northwest, Washington, was
found in his shop yesterday evening
about 5 o'clock suffering from an attack
of heart disease, superinduced by smok
ing opium. Wing, it will be temem-
bered, was the Chinaman arrested sew
eral months ago for sending on obscene
letter to Moy Kee, of this city, Wing
was taken to the Emergency Hospital,
where he died soon afterwsrd. An in
terestiug state of affairs developed over
his corpse. The doctors at the hospital
were interested in making al autopsy
over his body. 1t was expected that
the autopsy would be held last night,
but the Chinese were up 10 arms against
it. They called at the hospital and ex,
planned, that it was against their custom
TO have the body of a Chinsman cut up,
aud threatened dire vengeance on the
doctors if they cut it at all. DIR. Ham.
met, the coroner, was communicated
with, and said that the autopsy would
be held this morning at II o'clock. If
the coroner stands by his decision there
seems to be no way of stopping the au-
topsy, but it is understood that the
Chinese will apply to their minister to
have steps taken to prevent the mutila-
ton of Wings body. His brother, Lee
Moy, is very much interested in the
matter, as he wished the body to go
back to China without mutilation.

A SPEAKEAsY BROKEN UP.-A few
weeks ago Dan Corbin, colored, who
has spent considerable of his time on
the chain gang, procured a license to
conduct q cookshop on the wharf at the
loot of King street. 1t. was surmised
at TIE time that the veneering of pigs
feet, pe.snuts, pickles, &C., clouded
other traffic carried on within, and that
the innocent-loCking pop bottles con-
tanned potions lar more e~xhilaratipg
than many supposed. There were too
many ebony-hued females around the
premises, and the police were ordered
to exercise strict surveillance. Officer
Ferguson, during the past few days, Oh
tanned positive information that liquor
was being sold in the place without 8
license and on Sunday. The modus
operandi was as follows: A thirsty Gus
toner on a Sunday morning would
meet Corbin in the street ear the shop,
pay him ten cents for a check which
was handed to q colored female within
and she would pass out a popbott g
filled with lager beer. Half-plnt TASKS
of whisky could also be procured.
Corbin made no denial of the charges
and he was fined 500, and, as usual, he
had no money and went to the chain
gang.

Yesterdays PARADE, while not as
large as some of past years, was well
conducted throughout, and all who par
ticipated acted we'll their parts. There
was but one thing to regreat-the
threatening aspect of the weather.
which caused no little apprehension
and cut short some of the proceedings
usually enacted after the parade. The
different organizations gathered and
marched over the route as described IN
yesterdays GAZETTE, and as the cor
tege passed through the streets 1t was
much admired. A large crowd follow
ed throughout the entire line of march,
while the intersection of Prince and
Washington streets, the point at which
tbs monument is situated, was
densely packed with people. The
procession finally drew up in front
OF the monument, which had been COW
cred and made to resemble a lovely
bank of flowers. artistically and taste
fully arranged, which elected general
admiration. Commander G. W. Ram.
say of Lee Camp, called the assembly
to order, when the choir, led by Mr.. H.
X. Field, rendered several well-chosen
hymns, after which q fervent prayer
was offered by Rev. Mr.. Williams, of
the NJ. Z. Church South. At this juno
ture rain was imminent, and the flash
OF lightning and the roa OF thunder
rendered il advisable to bring the cere
monies at the monument to q close.
Commander Ramsay, therefore, arose
and in q few well chosen remarks paid
handsome tributes to the various organ
i~zations whicf had participated in the
parade and thanked all present for their
attendance. He concluded by stating
that it would be "inadvisable for Rev.
John McGill 10 deliver his Grafton,
ana announced that the procession
would form again ond proceed to Christ
Church where the closing exercises OF
the evening would follow. 10 a few
minutes time the cortege was again in
motion. Upon reaching Christ Church
the usual formation around the mound
marking the resting place of q number
of Confederate soldiers followed.
BY this time rain was falling
and some of the proposed features of
+he programme were necessarily elimi-
nal,nd. Most of the crowd, however,
remained until the exercises were
brought to q close. Asiutimated above,
while the procession was not as elabo-
rate az some of former years, all who
participated did SO IL earnest and those
who witnessed it and The Impressive
ceremonies we're greatly Interested.

SArCHEL THIEvEs.-A few minutes
before five o'clock yesterday evening
Mr.. ID. A. Butts, q commercial drum
mer from North Carolina, entered the
waiting room of the Southern Railway
in this city and deposited three satchels.
Two strangers were in the room at the
time, and when Mr.. Butts left to pur-
chase a cigar at a store across the street
the men gathered up his baggage and
left. When they reached the street
they asked n colored man employed at
the depot which was the nearest point
to board an electric train to Washing
ton and were directed to King and
PAYNE streets. In the meantime the
owner of the satchels returned aud
upon discovering his loss searched the
premises thoroughly. and the train hav-
ing arrived, he passed through the cars
In hopes OF finding the thieves aboard.
The conductor held the train five min
rutes while the search was being made,
and no tidings of the lost property hav-
Ing been obtained, Mr.. Butts proceeded
s3own the street and reported the mat
Ter 10 Officer Ferguson. Mr.. Butts said
two men were in the waiting
room whom he entered, and he
described them to the officer.
The latte telephoned TO the railway
office at King and Payne streets and
ascertained that two men with satcneis
had boarded the $50 train at tina
point. The Washington police were
notified by telephone and when the
train reached that city the thieves
were taken in custody, and the police
station in this city was notified. ON
Ger Ferguson proceeded immediately
to Washington and brought the men
ito this city. They had four satchels IN
their possession when arrested, n OF
which contained q uniform suit worn
bv Pullman car conductors. An en-
yelope in the satchel bore the name OF
w. A. Wallace. a satchel is said to
have been stolen from the g.. " L:
depot yesterday, and it is believed
Burns and Johnson, the two men
arrested, are the thieves. Mir.
Butts recognized three of the satchels
as being his property, aud the men
made no denial of having committed
the theft, but seemed rather to look
upon the matter as o joke. This morn
Ing they were brought before the May
or when they plead guilty, and the
value of the property stolen being un'
der $50 they were each fined thai
amount and in default of payment sem
to the chain gang. They said they
came from Yew Rork. Yesterday
they were hanging around the White
chapel neighborhood of this city.

Is being taken in the election to be
