Richmond, Va, Aug. alt looks as II
some disagreeable incident always mars
the laudabIe Intentions of those good
people who wish to bring about kindly
feelings between the Northern ana South
ern veterans OF the late war. For several
days past the members of Pickett Camp
have been making preparations to attend
the reunion of the blue and gray at
Washington Park on the Delaware. near
Philadelphia. They were cordially invit-
ed by several Grand Army posts and
other military organizations to take this
trip. and a committee even came to Rich
mond to extend a personal invitation. But
there seems to be many ex-Union soldiers
In Philadelphia who, for some reason or
other. do not care to encourage the cor
dial relations of blue and gray.
Several of the Pickett Camp men have
received letters. both signed and anony-

visiting the Quaker City and limiting that

Police Pension Practice.

To the Editor OF The Times:
With your kind permission l will invite your
attention TO the inequality in which pensions
are granted by the District government to dis
abled members of the Metropolitan police. men
who have served from fifteen to twenty-five years
and thereby become incapacitated for further po-
lice duty. which necessitates their retirement
from the force. Their retired pay ranges from
S25 to $50 per month, according to their dis
ability But where a man is retired and i'm
mediately accepts position with salary OF
$50 per month and family to support, and
is drawing $50 from the District government,
should not his retired pay be stopped and di-
vded among the widows Of policemen who have
children to support? ]. J. BLATSDELL-

A War Incident.

The notorietv that Gen. Lee is re- ceiving through the Spanish trouble called to Dr. W. c. Maxey's mind an incident, says an Idaho paper, that happened during the rebellion.
 It appears that our government had caused two rebel captains that were prisoners to be shot.
 The Confderate government decided to retaliate by shooting like number of the same rank among the prisoners confined in Libby Prison. Lots were cast and Captains Swage and Finn drew the fatal numbers. Swager re- quested that he might have the privi- lege of sending for his wife and seeing her before he was executed. This re- quest was gran ted, and he wrote a letter to his home in Pennsylvani a tellingo her that he was doomed to die on.a ce1 tain day and requested her to come, and see him. But instead of going directly to Richmond, she called on President Lincoln and stated tue case to him. He immediately notified the Confederate secretary of war that l if Captains Swager and Finn were executed Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, who was then prisoner, would be promptly shot. The prominence of the rebel officer saved the two Union soldiers, and also saved Lee, who now appears to be the right man in the right place. pr. Maxey says that the captain of his compsny was an an inma te of the prison when the lots were drawn.
