BELIEF AS TO HIS IDENTITY.

BOSWELL, VA. November u-(Spe-
ciaL)-The criminal assault upon Mrs.
Butler Taylor yesterday. has been the
principal topic of conversation about here
to-day. The accounts published in the
Richmond papers were generally read by
the public
Scarcely train passed through here to-
day that did not contain passengers who
inquired for news of the affair.
During the late hours of last night a
chain of circumstantial evidence develop
ed which seemed to connect with the
crime one Frank Johnson. a negro known
to be a native of Louisa county. who re-
sides few miles from Beaver Dam.
A SYSTEMATIC SEARCH
Long before dawn this morning broth
er and friend of the unfortunate woman
were making resolute preparations for a
systematic search for the culprit. Having
arranged the necessaries for such a jour
ney they first reported the crime to Con-
stable Cary Redd. who resides near Noei's,
and with his cooperation a posse number
ing twenty was formed for the purpose
of trailing the wretch to his lair. The
last authentic report fro the posse
staed that they were tenaciously following
the clue in the neighborhood of Beaver
Dam.
AS the time wears YEARLY on, every
body IN this vicinity awaits with trying
suspense the wanted report that the das-
tard has been captured

The Capitol Building Commission met
yesterday, and opened the bids Of the
contractors. Only two bids were offered,
those of J.. T. Wilson &, Co., and w. a.
Chesterman. both of this city. The

cess of the appropriation, the commission
took no action in the matter. except to re-
quest the architects to submit changes
in the plans that would enable the bid
ders to keep within the limit OF the appro-
priated funds.
Governor Montague stated that the
commission would probably meet next
Monday if the architects can arrange
their work by that time The mem
bers Of the, commission would not give
out the figures of the bidders.

WRECKED A SKAGWAY BANK.
An Unknown Man Dropped Bomb
on Floor.

Seattle, Sept. 10. A special from
Skagway says:
At O'Clock in the afternoon an I'M
known man walked into the Canadian
Bank of Comerce, a revolver in one
hand and dynamite bomb in the
other, and demanded $40, 900 or threat
ened to blow all to eternity. Cashier
Pooley and Teller Wallace were the
only two in the bank.
Wallace ducked to get his gun and
ran quickly to the back room, yelling
for Pooley to do the same.
mo you don'tl" yelled the man, and
dropped the bomb.
The two clerks had by this time got
ten out of the rear window. The bank
room was wrecked, the unknown had
his head smashed and one arm torn off ;
hole was torn in the right wall of
the bank; the front windows were
blown clear across the street, and
money was scattered to the four winds.
The side of the building bulged out,
and furniture in the living rooms over
the bank was tumbled around, the oc-
cupants being blown into the air from
the conclusion.
Windows for blocks were broken.
J. q. Price was just entering the
bank. He was hurt around the head,
but not seriously. The dynamiter was
taken to the hospital, where he died,
not regaining consciousness.
No papers were on the body to reveal
his identity, and there was only $1.65
on his person.
At the inquest it was brought out
that the man fired two shots at Wall
ace, one of which is believed to have
sent the dynamite bomb off.
The bank possibly lost about thous-
and dollars, chiefly in gold dust, which
was lying on the counter.
