PLACED UNDER ARREST.

Indictment.

Joe underwood to BE Held to Answer
Indictment.
Joe Underwood, alias Thomas L. Grady,
colored, forty-five years old, was arrested
this morning by Detectives Baur, Horne,
Lacy and Precinct Detective Cornwel of
the fourth precinct and locked up at the
first precinct station to answer an indict-
rlent for burglary. He was measured and
photographed for the gallery prior to be-
ing turned over to the marshal.
Underwood is regarded by the local po-
lice as we'll as the police Of other cities,
as one of the best colored crooks in the
country. Although only forty-five years
old, he has received sentences aggregating
thirty seven years. He says he commenced
his crooked work when he was thirteen
years old, and that he has now made up
his mind to mend his ways.
The prisoner was sentenced to twenty
five years in the penitentiary at Richmond
for burglarieS committed In FrederickS-
burg, and was pardoned after he had
served nine years. Later he was arrested
In Richmond and sentenced to ten years
in states prison. He came to this city
after serving the ten years and was ar
rested with John d. Shea. The latter is
now serving a life sentence in ST. Louis
for the murder of policeman. On that
occasion Underwood, it is said, served six
months for larceny. Two years ago he was
arrested here for housebreaking and was
sentenced to eighteen months imprison-
ment at Moundsville. After returning to
this city he assumed the name Of Grady,
and has been living in Limerick alley with
a colored woman.
The Indictment pending against him al
leges that he burglarized a house in this
city near 4th and D streets northwest. I'm
derWood is well known to most of the older
members Of the police force. 1t is stated
that during his long criminal career his as
sociates were chiefly white men.

HINTS TO EXPORTERS.
How Trade in American Goods Could
he Increased.


United States Consul Frank D. Hill at
Amsterdam, has sent the State Department
extracts from letter written to him by an
American trading company of Amsterdam
from which it appears that one of the rea-
sons for the small sale of American furni-
ture and other manufactures in Holland
and European countries in general is the
slow delivery, owing to the absence Of
stock in the factories.
''As to European limitations of American
speclaltieS, We can state that they are not
cheaper than American goods" says the
letter, land are of very bad workmanship
But We are sure, If. We showed this people
their faults and supported the home trade
they would work as we'll as manufa cturers
in the United States, and We would not need
to send money three months before we saw
the goods, on the contrary, We would nav
three months after invoice.
I'VE have had an offer from a British
house to take goods on consignment. The
managers propose to send us stock and to
pay for all advertising. That would be the
way for Americans to do business United
States manufacturers do not understand
how to treat European dealers. We rever
receive the goods at the right time: we
also think, if We give bankers guaranty in
New York, the manufacturers could take
the risk of sending the goods payable
against shipment documents in Holland in
I'VE do not think American exporters
VIII ever be willing to send stock on con-
signment, but it would be to their interest
to keep samples in Europe, and Amsterdam
would be the right place, being on the sea-
coast and the center Of a neutral country
I'VE are sure, If We could keep a perma-
nent exhibition of American goods here
large buyers OF Europe would come to ex-
anime them and much trade could be done
We would be prepared to give American
manufacturers every security"
Consul Hill laid stress on the fact that
tne Netherlands Is a 'neutraP'country and
says there is no identity of interest he
tween the Netherlands and any other Euro
pean country: consequently, her tariff sys-
tenn is not likely to be affected by any ley-
islation on the part of her neighbcrs: and
as she is not an industrial or manrfactur-
ing nation to any extent, and her interests
are almost exclusively commercial. her
policy Is net expected to be unfavorable to
the entrance of American or any other i'm
ports"

Stolen Bank Funds Recovered.

The controller of the currency has re-
ceived from Examiner Ever full report
Of the recent robbery of the Merchants
National Bank of Lowell, Mass, by the
late teller, Smith, and Bookkeeper Swift,
but declined to make the report public.
upon the ground that reports of national
bank examiners are confidential communi-
cations to the controllers office. The con-
troller said, however, that the report
showed that the teller and bookkeeper en-
tered the bank during the night and abb
stracted s95,S10 in cash, $S0S. .239 of securi-
ties and 100000 Of collaterals. All of these
securities and $4,000 of the cash were re-
covered through the counsel for Smith and
Swift, and the only loss the bank appears
to have sustained was about s1l5 900. which
has been made good out of the surplus and
undivided profits. The examiner stated
that no promise of immunity from punish
ment as a condition to the return of the
cash and securities were made by the di-
rectors, and the facts have all been placed
before the United States attorney.

seth year. Married to Andrew Hoy by
John Land UNI in l843. Had two chill
dren, nine grandchildren and five great

consistent member of the Baptist

and a faithful attendant in Sunday
School and all regular church services.
But she is gone to enjoy the rest that
remaineth for the children of God. Go
then sweet spirit at thy Fathers call
to thy Fathers home, where all is Joy
and peace and love. w. HI. DEAN.

The tax dlgests of eighty-two
out of the 1877 counties of the
state have reached the office of
the, comptroller-general. Of this
number seventy-three show an in
crease i'll their returns, aid nine
countiss show a decrease. The
total amount of the decrease is
1888, 918, while the total increase
is $9,647 ,487. Comptroller-Ger
eral Wright some weeks ago esti-
mated that the total increase this
year would amount to $14, 100000.
but it now looks like $4,000, 900
will be much nearer the figure,
and if this is SO, Georgia next
year will be from $50, 900 to $780,
600 to the good in her revenues.
These figures do not include the
increase in the taxable value of
railroad property, as these returns
are made direct to the comptroller
general, and do not pass through
the books of the tax receivers.
