ADAMS WILL RECOVER.
Man Stabbed at Knoxville, Tenn, Gets
Along Wells a Tramp.

Major Sylvester received a letter
from the chief of police OF Knoxville,
Tenn. yesterday in which it was stated
that John Adams. who was badly in
jured in that city several days ago.
was getting along nicely and that he
would shortly be able to leave the hos
pitai.
Adams was found by the police of
Knoxville in a badly wounded condition
on the streets of that city. He had
been stabbed in the abdomen and was
suffering greatly from loss of blood. He
was taken to the hospital. where. the
physicians were successful in stopping
the bleeding.
1t was reported from Knoxville at the
time of the assault that Adams was a
salesman and resided in this city. An
investigation by the Knoxville police
shows that. according to Adams state
ment, he once resided in this city or
l. Street, between Sixth and Seventh
Streets northwest. but that he had
never been engaged as a salesman.
Adams admitted to the Knoxville po-
lice that he was a tramp and had been
engaged in this pursuit for sometime.
It. is said the stabbing was the result
of trouble over a girl.

Steamer Harry Randall Unable to Go to
Colonial Beach.

Owing to a broken crosshead on the
engine OF the steamer Harry Randall
yesterday morning that vessel was un-
able to make its accustomed trip to
Colonial Beach.
Several days ago the crosshead be-
came broken and an effort was made to
fix it in time for the Sunday morning
excursion. This was thought to have
been accomplished.
Yesterday morning a large crowd,
probably 1000 excursionists. boarded
the Randall and she started on her trip
down the river. All went well until
the boat got opposite Mount Vernon.
when the crosshead blew out and the
boat came to standstill.
There was little or no excitement and
but few of the passengers knew what
had occurred. The Randall was gotten
back to River View, where all hands
were transferred to the steamer Samuel
]. Pentz and continued on their way TO
the Beach.
r The steamer Wakefield took the place
of the Pentz on the River View line
