Two Policemen Detailed TO Prevent
Possible Desecrnfion.

Watertown, N. Y, May 21.-Fearng
that the grave of former Governor Roswell
p. Flower might be desecrated, the imme-
diate relatives of the dead statesman and
financier have caused to be placed at
Brookside Cemetery OF guard of
two policemen. The cemetery is about
three miles outside the city, and the
guard was placed over the grave on the
night following the interment. The guard
was selected by Chief of Police Charles G.
Champlin and Police Sergeant Gaylord
Baxter, and consists of James Loucks, a
special policeman, and William Howks.
The two men have a tent close to the
grave of the late Governor and both are
on duty during the whole night.
Thus far they have been troubled with
nothing but the hooting of an owl The
men have not been informed how long
they will have this work to perform, but
expect to keep up this nightly vigil for
some time to come. Howks and Loucks
reside in this city, and about sundown each
afternoon wander out to Brookside to be-
gin their nights watch. They return soon
after sunrise in the morning and make
their report at the police office. For
watching the grave they receive So each

body is doubtless held in mind by the

A CANAL MURDER MYSTERY.
Peter FIetcher's Body Found Will,
the Hands aud Feet Tied

Rockville. Nd. May 21.-From news
which has just reached this place from
Great Falls. this county, it looks very
much as though another murder has oc-
CURED in this county. An application was
made here today by Agnes Fletcher, col
ored. who resides in Washington. for a
coroner to go with her TO Great Falls to
hold an inquest over the body OF her son,
Peter Fletcher, who was found drowned in
the canal near the clubhouse at that place
this morning with hands and feet securely
tied. Fletcher has been for some weeks
employed upon the Lydecker tunnel in the
District, and on last Saturday he, in COM
pany with two unknown colored men,
went to the Falls, and he was not seen
after that. In consequence of a search in
stituted by his mother, whose sole support
he was, his body was found in the canal.
Fletcher was well dressed and had upon
his person a watch and considerable mon
ey. neither of which was taken. An in
quest was held over the body, but the
verdict is not known as yet.
