An Old Man, Charged With SIashins
His step-Daughter, Badly Beaten.

AS the result Of q fierce fight which
was raduiged In by several men on Acker
Street northeast shortly after 10 o'clock
last night, James Price, colored. sixty
years OF age, occupies a ward in the
Casualty Hospital and is in a serious con-
dition His alleged assailant. John =.
Boone, also colored, is locked up at the
Ninth precinct station, charged with as
sault and battery. He viii be held there
to await the result of the older man 5
injuries
About 1890 o'clock last night the resi-
dents Of Aeker Street, most Of whom are
coiored people, were startled by hearing
screams of murder issuing from house No
607 on that street. The outcry was fol-
lowed by the appearance OF . young
woman. bleeding profusely from stab
wound in her back, who ran across the
street into neighbors house. Word
was sent TO the Ninth precinct station
and Bicycle Policeman Johnson respond
ed, with Policeman Hayden. Upon go
ing to- the house from which the cries
came they discovered Price lying in a
pool Of blood and in a terrible condition.
His eyes were both closed and swollen
while his face was terribly disigured.
Near the old man lay 4 bloody razor
which the hiJecoats at once secured. r he
with Boone. his stcp-aaughter husband,
had been drinking heavily during the Gay.
Last night, as Cornelia Boone. his step
daughter, started tO go downstairs, Price
met her with a razor, II Is alleged, and
informed her that he intended to Kill
her. As she endeaVored to pass him. it
IS said he made a vicious swing, giving
her painful cut in the back The woman
ran, screaming. from the house. Just
about this time her husband, John r
Boone. put IN an appearance and, hearing
what the oid man had done, started in TO
beat him.
Boone is said to have knocked the old
man down and to have stamped on him.
and after seeing that he had almost
killed him. left. the house and went for a
doctor Upon returning with the ply
sician. Boone was placed under arrest by
Policeman Johnson.
Upon the injured mans arrival at the
hospital the doctors found that he had
two fractures of the skull. a badly lacer-
ated face, and was badly bruised and cut
about his body. While his condition is a
serious one, the surgeons do not as yet
anticipate a serious result.
In the meantime the Ninth precinct po-
lice are making thorough investigation
into the case in order that they may as
certain whether or not they have the
right man in custody.

BROKERS RENEW LICENSES.
End of the Fiscal Year Causes n
Rush of Revenue Business.

The clerks employed in the Internal
revenue Office. 7O7 G Street northwest,
we're kept very busy yesterday on ac-
count of the renewal of all kinds of Ii
censes issued by the Internal Revenue
Bureau. Nearly all the brokers in Wash
ington appeared in a body at the local
Office to renew their licenses so that they
could continue business tomorrow With
out interference from the internal rev
enue officials. Many OF the local brokers
paid their license fee for next year, many
taking out licenses for brokers No. 2
which is known as the bucketshop license
The leading brokers. however, who have
connection with the exchange refused to
lac classified as brokers No. and re-
Trained from taking out the required Ii
cense.
Under The recent ruling of the In
ternal Revenue Commissioner said
well-known broker, any firm or broker
that is not a member of an exchange
comes under the bucketshop head. The
leading brokers do not regard this ruling
as fair or just, as 1t would include such
firms as Lewis Johnson Co, Crane,
Paris & CO, Bachman & Co. and others
who have no seats on the New York ex
change. VIXEN they do business as brokers
No. 2 or bucketshops. Hence, brokers' of
this class did not take out licenses"

ployes Of the company. was adjourned

had been fully discussed during the meet
ing and excellent progress toward reach
ing an agreement satisfactory TO both
sides was being made Further than this
Mr.. Morrison refused to discuss the work
accomplished so far. stating that as yet
no definite action had been decided upon.
The Dayton difficulty. has been one of
several weeks duration, and grew out Of
the refusal of the officials Of the Nation
al Cash Register Company to allow their
employees TO labor nine hours per day and
receive compensation for ten hours work.
Upon the refusal Of the company to grant
their demands the machinists at once
declared q strike, and since that time the
factories Of the company have been idle.
IN order that the present state OF az
fairs might be satisfactorily adjusted TO
suit both sides il WAS finally decided to
appoint delegates who would come to this
city for a conference with the American
Federation Of Labor officials. to adjust
matters more quickly

continue a week before a final settlement

DEATHS FROM THE HEAT.
New York's Fatalities for the Day
Ten in Number.

NEW YORK, June 29-The hot wave
continued here today in full blast and the
City was ike a bakeshop. The maximum
temperature of the day before was 7 OF
attained. but the heat was more even aIi
really more oppressive than on Friday.
The figures. however, give only a faint
idea of the heat that stided and oppres essed
the whole city. 1t was fortunate that it
vas half holiday. allowing thousands to
save themselves from the heated walls
and pavements by hasty departure from
the city. Otherwise the number Of deaths
and pr0strations must have been much
greater.
AS it was there were ten deaths and
thirty-three iFOstrations recorded as due
TO the heat.

 EmbezzIement

Nashville. Tenn, January 1S-Walter s. Rainey, Circuit Court clerk of this (Davd- som county was arrested here this morn- ing on a charge of embezzlement in office. The warrant was issued upon application of the Fidelity and Casualty Insurance Company of Baltimore which is on Rainey's' bond for s1OOOO, respectively, in the first and second Circuit Courts. On Monday last Judges Bonner and Childress of the two courts, on information of alleged irregularities in office, suspended Clerk Rainey and ordered an investigation of his books The committee appointed made a formal report yesterday. The substance of this report was Shat shortage to the amount of ,3l5 had been found, and that the expert accountants employed by T. B. Johnson, state revenue agent, were still at work making further examination of the books of the office.
 The morning following the suspension from his office Rainey left the city, return ing this morning from Chicago, where, 1t is said he has spent the intervening time. He was arrested as he stepped from the train here this morning and was admitted to bail in the sum of $10,0o0. Beyond ex- pressing surprise at the amount of his all legged shortage, Rainey declines to discuss his arrest.
