Colson passed the night in jail 1t Is
regarded as fortunate that the affair lad
no relation to politics, and that both the
principals and two of the dead belonged

PROPOSED LINE.

Washington. Jan. is. 1900
Referring 10 our recent conversation
in regard TO the section of the country
in Virginia Immediately south of the
Potomac river. ] send herewith a. military
map made in 1865, showing the original
lines of the ten-Inile square set aside
for the seat Of government. and sug-
igested line in blue pencil. indicating
the portion Of that returned some years
since to the State of. Virginia which
should again be turned over TO the United
States to form part of the District
OF Columbia. 1t is believed. in view of
the proposed Memorial bridge. and for
other good reasons, that the general
government should hereafter completely
control a portion Of the section imme-
diarely south of the Potomac river. which
at one time formed part Of the District
of Columbia
il appears 10 me that il all the portion
north of n line parallel and two miles
distant from the original southwestern
boundary OF the district We're again
tr.rsferred to the general government
tf?e area thus regained would include
al that IS necessary.
! simply throw out this, suggestion as
basis for consideration and discussion.

sDect Work There.

Spect WORK mere.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 17.-The Chicka-
manga and Chattanooga Military Park
Commission. with the approval of the
Secretary of War. has requested the at
tendance at Chattanooga, on the 9th. 10th
and 18th of October next. of all veterans
interested IN the historical accuracy OF
the work thus far completed at the park,
for close inspection of the texts upon the
two thousand tablets, over two hundred
battery positions. and over two hundred
battle positions of brigade lines upon the
seven fields included in the park project.
This invitation Will be extended to all
Grand Army and Confederate posts. TO
the twenty-six State commissions engaged
with the National Commission and to the
army societies of the SIX armies-three
for each side-represented in those en-
gagged in the battles about CHATTANOOGA.
The commission has reason to believe
that a sufficient number will attend from
the survivors of each brigade to discover
whatever errors might have crept into
the work of the commission. A genera:
reunion Of the veterans of the Army OF
the Cumberland and the society OF that
army will be held at Chattanooga on the
same dates.

CINCINNATI, O.. Jan. 17.-Colonel W.

Mt Music Hall tonight, under the aus
pices of tie Cincinnati Bimetallic Cour-
Gil. He said that the time had come when
no farmer or laborer could afford to be

tirely changed front. AS to dropping the
money question he said there was no man
in the nation big enough to let that ques-
tion fall in such q way as to break 1t.
He argued that monopolies could be
stopped by Congress. He discussed the
defence OF the Philippine policy. and
was severe on the theory that the pos
session of the Philippines would pay: He
said: 81 would not put the life of one
American so.uler on the auction block
for all the gold and all the wealth OF the
