avenue between 18th and 18th streets. If
he was personally unknown not so was his
work, for through a son he reached the
public, and a clock repa red by him was re-
garGed needing further attention. For
many years the clocks of the departments
were attended to by the hermit.
A department Clerk who did a loan BUSH
ness with his fellow-clerks carrying his
money ready i'm pocket and his office in his
hat, was dubbed the walking broker" and
the name stuck to him. He was quite a
good looking bachelor and though it was
said that many mother did her best to
win him as a son-in-law it was late in life
before he snccumbed, and then it was to a
widow as old as himself with a family.
Another department clerk many times
attempted to chastise, and sometimes sue
ceeded, boy who had incurred his enmity
by simply saying All over in his hearing.
So we'll was he known by that phrase that
only small portion of the community
knew of any other name. The commonly
accepted version of his being so dubbed was
that he received it at the National Theater
He was an inveterate pIaygoer, and by force
of habit took one particular end seat be-
meath the gallery. The gallery gods noted
him and one night prepared to rout him
from his seat One had carried into the GAL
lery vessel of water and during the even
ing upset it with such unerring aim that it
struck ON his head. 1t is needless to say
that he was mad. The louder he called with
profanity not here repeated who poured
water on me?" the louder We're the calls.
Pour it all over and letting off all his
reserve stock of exp,etives in one last burst,
he left the house like a drowned rat. 1t
was not long before from one end of the
city to the other the incident was related
and the phrase "All over" became a by
word

president of this club. and prominent mem
bers were the marshal, Richard Wallach;
Joseph H. Bradley and w. w. Seaton. The
old Jackson Democratic Association then
met in old Adephi Theater, known at the
time as the Democratic Hall. Prominent in
this were Jonah d. Hoover afterward mar
shall; Colonel B. B. French. who became
commissioner of public buildings Thomas
Thornly, who was warden of the peniten-
tiary; DR.. William Jones, who soon after
resumed the postmastership; Daniel Rad
cliffe and John E. Norris
The Fashions of 80
In Old-time Washington many odd char
acters were to be found, and scenes were
enacted which to the people of today are
past belief. The fashions in dress, too as
may be supposed, were different Num-
bers of men We're wearing the "shad- belly"
coat, knee pants, stockings and pumps, ruff
fled shirt and bell-crowned beaver hat with
much wider brim than the silk hat of the
present. The blue dress coat Powered vest
and light pants held down by straps were
the fashion, and there We're fully as many
men addicted to shutting as to chewing and
smoking. The ladies were gowned as elab-
orately as now and the younger ones were
quite as prompt in following new style.
Nor were the old fashions out of date with
numbers of elderly women.
There were a few Quakers in the COM
munity, and as numbers of the women
Methodists dressed in a style similar to the
Quakeresses it was not strange that a
visitor should get the impression that many
of VIM. PENIS followers were here.

Servants of George Washington"

There were many reputed servants of
George Washington among the colored race,
probably the best known among them one
Jerry Lowe, who on the parade days of
the military was sure to turn out in full
regimentals. He lived in the eastern section
of the city, and when the military were
assembl.n,; in front of the city hall his ex-
clamation would be heard, capitol Hill
forever and in the gorgeous uniform of
some of the ancient companies he would
bob UP among the soldiers. Whether or not
he was really former servant of Washing
ton, the soldiery humore1 him, allowing
him to march behind the band.
Yankee Doodle Robinson, the editor of
the Truth, was a distinct local character
in those days. He was dminutive in body,
wearing a beaver hat which lily contrasted
with his short stature, but in his own opin-
ion he had the most gigantic mind of that
day, and essayed the task of educating the
people on the great questions of the day by
now and then issuing the Truth and selling
copies. He became the victim of many
mischievous persons, often being the subject
of practical jokes.
There was odd looking pair of police
constables then in commission who covered
their territory on horseback, one a large
robust gray-haired old man attired in blue
coat. beaver hat and wearing leggings,
mounted on a fine specimen of gray horse
whose name and tail reached nearly to the
ground; the other a small man, but notable
for his courage There were laws against
swine running at large, which made it the
duty of police constables to take up such
animals and convey them to the asylum
and provided that for each 81 per head
should be paid This pair, often with dogs
followed by a cart, engaged in hog hunting.

A Ripe Field for a Dickens.

AS to odd characters, so numerous were
they that years ago one of the lead ng men
of the nation said that a Dickens could find
here a more prolific field than in all Eng
land Some were odd in dress, in walk
talk, habit and occupation. 1t is well known
that Beau" Hickman was then in his
prime, and with his willy ways was plying
his art of living without work, and he could
then be seen daily at the downtown hotels.

VIOLENCE USED EVERYWHERE,
Registration Scheme In Porto Rico
 Proves a Great Failure.

San Juan, Porto Rico. October 29.-rn- complete returns from various parts Of the island regarding the last registration yesterday confirm the report that riots and shooting occurred in many towns and violence was used everywhere The fed erals were shut out at San Lorenzo, where a mob attacked the police with the result that two of the rioters were killed and 15 men desperately wounded. It is added that the mob entered the town carrying corpse at the head of the procession
 The police attempted to disperse the participants in fight at Patillas, a fed eral town which was invaded by a mob of republicans from Guanama, which forcibly took possession of the booths, shut out the federals and registered the whole of Guanama's nonresident party
 At Ponce many shots were fired, but there were no, casualties. Minor disor- dcrs, stabbings and other woundings have been reported from other towns. New and imperative instructions had been is- sued by the government for yesterdays registration but they were generally dis regal ded by ike election judges. The fed erals were not permitted to register and were forcibly kept out of the booths.

CHINA TARIFF SCHEDULES.
Consul General Goodnow Sends Copy
 of the Agreement.

Washington, October 29.-Consul Gen eral Jol' odnow, stationed at shang- hai, ha ~ded to the state depart ment the new tariff schedules adopted | nina, together with a copy the agreement entered into between MT. T. s. Sharretts, the special commissioner of the United States. who was sent to China by this government for the pur- pose of arranging the tariff and the com missioners appointed to superintend the work in behalf of the Chinese empire. The new schedule shows the effect of the agreement which had been previously arrived at, to make all rates into all parts of China specific rather than ad valorem. nine-tenths or more of the articles thus being listed
 Heretofore the advalorem system had been in use the result being that many frauds have been perpetrated and the revenues reduced to a point far below the needs of the Chinese government The effort under the old system was to levy a tariff amounting to per cent on the value of all goods imported, but the percentage was calculated on a silver basis.
 Under the new arrangement the call culation Is made on gold basis. The rate is not changed but the adoption of the gold basis will have the effect of an increase. The new tariff is to go into effect December L instant, the first day of the tenth Chinese moon. There is a special understanding that in case of diff ference of meaning between the English and Chinese text of the tariff, the En. glish version Is to be accepted as cor rect Under the agreement, flour, which Is one of the principal China i'm. poorts from the United States, Is to be admitted free of duty. This concession is also made on all cereals. The rate on kerosene in bulk per case -of ten gallons is 1-29th of a tael.

BOTH COUNTRIES
 AWAIT DECISION
Colombian Canal Negotiations
 Are at a StandstilI
MINISTER NEEDS ORDERS
U. s. officials object to Linking Canal Negotiations With the Action of Our Naval officers During
 Recent Controversy.

Washington, October 29.-The status to- day of the Columbian canal negotiations is that both sides here are awaiting decision of the Colombian government as whether Minister Concha shall proceed under his original instructions to pre- sent to the state department the Coiom- bian response to the department proposal for a treaty. When the response arrived in Washington two days ago the minis ter promptly notified the state depart ment of the fact, but he added to his notice the. statement that in view of recent developments (meaning events that had happened on lne isthmus since the note started from Bogotas September 16), he had regarded 1t his duty to with hold It until he heard further from his government. As the state department had In some way to know that the Co- lombian response would, if submitted, go far towards meeting the desires of this government in the matter of a canal treaty, this delay is very annoying But as the minister had his own notion of duty in the matter, it was decided that an appeal should be taken over his head to the authorities in Bogota. Another cablegram was sent to United States Minister Hart to the Colombian capital notifying him of the action of the Colom- bian minister here. No specific complaint was made but 1t was desired to make sure that the Colombian government knew that the note had been held back.
 The objection by our own officials is the attempt to link the negotiations for the canal treaty, pure and simple, with the discussion of the questions of the correctness of the attitude of our naval officers on the isthmus. It is expected that the delay will not be long, for even If the Colombian minister's action is not satisfactory the United States govern ment will still be bound by the terms of the Spooner ace to proceed towards the construction of an isthmus canal, and the only question to be decided is as to the method. There are two ways open even in case oI an adverse attitude on the part of Colombia, namely, either the United States government to pro- ceed without delay without complete treaties with Nicaragua and Costa Rica necessary for the construction of a ca nal in those countries, or and tlAs latter course would be adopted with reluctance the government might purchase outright the franchise of the French Panama Ca- nal company and go on resolutely with the construction of the Panama canal taking the ground that 1t would have a right to improve its own property with out reference to any other government and taking no further notice of Colom- bia.

HAY HAS TWO CALLERS.
MT. Cromwell, Council of the Panama
 Canal Company a Visitor.

Washington, October 29-Secretary Hay had two cal ITS today who talked about canal matters. The first was MT. Cromwell, counsel of the Panama Canal company, who wished to ascertain the needed step to be taken by the United States government in view of Attorney General Knox's opinion, respecting the canal title. As this depends for the mo- ment on the issue of the negotiations with the Colombian government no di- rect information could be furnished.
 Later in the day came Captain Mclean, lately in command of the cruiser Gin cinnati. He was presented by Captain Cowles and gave the secretary a most interesting account of the situation on the isthmus.
 The secretary was impressed by the tactful manner in which the navy de- pertinent had maintained friendly and even cordial personal relations with the Colombian officers while quietly but ef- fectually exercising the treaty powers of the United States government toward the maintenance of freedom of traffic across the isthmus.

DOCK LABoRERs ON STRIKE.
Two Thousand Men Quit Work In
 Montreal and Tie Up Business.

Montreal, October 29.-Two thous. and dock laborers went on strike to- day, completely tying up the business of the port. The men have been working all the season on a flat scale of 20 cents per hour, night or day, and they now demand pay at the rate of 30 cents per hour for day work and 35 cents per hour for night work. The demand was refused. Tonight a mass meeting was held and resolutions passed unanimously that the men would remain out until their full de- mands were conceded. The demand is based upon the great increase in the cost of living.
 The ship agents contend that the men are being paid all that the con ditions of the port warrant.
 With steamers in port waiting cargo and as many more still due, the situa- tion is a serious one.
 The shipping agents met late to- night and decided, in view of the urgency of the situation, to offer the men 25 cents per hour for day labor and 30 cents for night work.
 Tonight the Elder Dempster com pany is paying 35 cents for the men employed in loading a lake steamer due to sail tomorrow morning.

MISSIONS HELP TRADE.
Bishop D. H. Moore Shows Benefit of
 Work In China.

New York, October 29-In address. ing the members of the Methodist So. cial union in this city Bishop D. H, Moore, whose charge includes Japan. China and Corea, said
 Missions make the best market in the world. If we succeed in making China a Christian nation, we shall be doing something that will pay us com. mercially as well as from a religious point of view This country has a vital interest in seeing that the gospel is carried to the far east, especially to Corea, which has been placed by Providence as a bulwark against the encroachments of Russia"
 Bishop McCabe, who lately returned from South America and Europe, spoke of the success of the Methodists ir regions from Argentina to Finland
 Bishop J. M. Thoburn of the mission in India also spoke.

IRON PRICES.
Minimum Schedule for Last Half of
 1903 On $1s.5o Basis.

J. ". Mcqueen, secretary-treasurer and sales agent of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron company returned from New York last night. He was in the confer ence of representatives of the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company and other large southern companies held for the purpose of fixing the minimum sell ing price of pig Iron for contracts for delivery in the last half of 1903.
 It had been stated that the schedule for the last six months of next year was on an SIS basis. The minimum price for No. foundry was fixed at $lS.5O But from the firmness of the market and the eager demand it looks as if the bulk of southern iron for next falls delivery would be booked at s19.5O and $2O.
 The ruling prices for delivery in the first half of next year have been on a S17 basis.

to await identification. Night Watch man Erskine and Dentist Gibford be- lieye they can identify the man, al- though the robbers wore masks.
 It has developed that there were five of the bandits, two of them en- gagged in dynamiting the safe, and that 1t required eight shots before the safe was finally opened. The loss has been definitely placed at $4500. It is believed that the bandits boarded the Rock Island train at Fairmount and went southeast. No definite clue has been obtained.
