JUSTICE JOHNS DEPARTING CRY.

It is a curious thing how people will
gather daily in the sweItering precincts
of the Court of Crimes and suffer dis
comfort in order to see other folks IN
trouble.
The Big White Chamber was hotter yes
terday than a Virginia kitchen In pre-
serving time. Dark, damp and sunocat-
ing odors rose from the moist and I'M
washed throng and the lot of the police
men who had to camp among them for
the sake of good order was not happy
one.
FEARFUL SCENE.
The Great Dispenser gasped for air and
gradually sunk in the gathering waters
about his chair, and as he went down the
third and last time he was heard to feebly
cry as the waves of perspiration closed
over his head, help, electric fans. help,
electric -, and then only silence brood
ed over the spot where once sat the
Greatest Police Justice on earth-now
sacrifice to heat and to duty.
These were some of the cases he tried
during his last moments:
Alfred Harris (colored) was charged with
a felonious assault on Abraham Johnson
with pop bottle. Alfred caught Abra-
ham in his home without being invited by
himself and knocked him down the steps
with the pop bottle. Abraham's head had
q OlaCk pdtch OF court plaster on the Crown
as big as the window in the ark. The
breaking of the bottle also cut his neck,
and his shirt was crimson-soaked
The Great Dispenser was Of the opinion
that he ought to have been kilt and
dismissed the case.
FOUGHT WE'LL.
Matte Toliver (colored) was charged
with beating Angie Meekins. Her victim
showed some marks Of violence on her
throat, and Matte liquidated to the eX-
tent OF three twenty.
Robert II. Epps (colored), who. accord
ing to the detectives, is the "smartest
scoundrel in Virginia. undertook to act
as suppliant for another negro in JAIL and
took his money, amounting to six dollars.
on the plea Of paving him out Robert
spent the money and pardon came to
the prisoner.
Robert went down for sixty days to Join
his unfortunate dupe.
Ray Thomas who is his own only enc
my was put under security for sixty days
in order to prevent him from self-destruc-
ton by the use of that which has a
stronger power than his own will.
A number Of small cases and a docket Of
eighty-three civil cases were tried be-
fore the Great Dispenser succumbed to
the flood.

Busiueaa Fully Equal to That Of . Cor
responding Period Last Year.
Bradstreet's eays: Though some
measures OF business volume and value
make unfavorable comparison with .
year ago, and speculation Is certainly
on reduced scale in nearly all lines,
Other registers OF trade activity are still
vsiy favorable and it il hard to resist
the conclusion that. with few notable
exceptions, the actual business of the
country is as rule fully equal TO II
not slightly in excess of the correspond
ing period of 1899. This, too. in the
case in spite OF the distinctly oppressive
tendency exercised by the present pres
idential campaign.
Prices of staples as whole are firm,
after sustained advance for month
past, succeeding summer OF quiet
steadiness, bnt unhealthiness Of the
short side in speculation has been
brought forcibly to the attention OF
dealers in number OF staples, notably
hog products and faxseed.
The event of the week in the iron
and steel trade has been the taking OF
10000 tons of rails by the Pennsyl-
vania at see per ton, announced on
Friday. This action, which will
probably be followed by other COM
panies. disposes of the steel rail puzzle
satisfactorily to the rail-makers, and
constitutes another element of strength
to the industry generally. Despite q
decrease of oven 20 per cent in the cur
rent pig iron proudction from four
months ago, furnace stocks are reported
increasing and prices are rather weak.
