oVERCOAT WEATHER.
Frosts Near Washington and Mercury
Near the Freezing Point.

With light frost within sixteen miles of
the city and the temperature but seven de-
grees above the freezing point at O'Clock
this morning, Washington has experienced
period of what lis known in the army as
"overcoat weather" The frost in this vi
cinity was about sixteen miles northward
of here, Prof. Frankenfeld of the weather
bureau stated today, and it was light and
did not cause any appreciable damage to
crops The outlook is for continued cool
weather tonight, gradually becoming
warmer.
Overcoats were worn today by many
persons in this city, and there was sud-
den dimfnution in the number of straw
hats as observed on the main thorough
fares. In some instances the wearers OF
hats of straw were yelled at by the ire
pressihle small boy with the eXclamations::
Look out, mister, the cows will chase
YOU" DE guns gone off, Shoot de straw
deer" and other expressions of the street.
Persons who had to be at their places of
business early this morning scurried along
in an almost wintry atmosphere, and many
people substituted heavier clothing for the
lighter summer CARDS they had worn here
tofore.
The weather bureau reports that there
were heavy frosts in the north last night,
with freezing temperatures In northern
New York and the New England states.

METHOD OF INVESTIGATION.
Questions Asked by Committee Which
is Probing the District Service


How many days leave of absence have
the employees of your office taken this
year?'
How many employees of your Office are
bonded? To whom bonded? In what
amount and by what authority"
Submit a list Of the employees in your
office, their respective work and salary"
Give a detailed statement relative to
| the methods followed in transacting the
business of your department"
| The foregoing are some of the questions
being asked of the heads of the various
departments of the District government
by the committee appointed by the Com
missioners to investigate the several
branches of the municipal service.
This much is about all that can be as
certained relative to the course pursued
by the investigating committee in it's ex-
animation. Beyond this informal ton the
impenetrable veil of secrecy is tightly
| drawn by the members of the probing
| committee. Nothing further with respect
| to the course of the investigation will be
| given out by the committee until its re-
| port to the Commissioners has been made
public
| The committee was busy with its probe
| at the District building today, and the
heads of the several departments were
prompt in supplying answers to the ques-
| tlons and in furnishing the statements re-
quested. All the heads of the depart
| ments seem to be viewing the prospective
results of the investigation with compos-
| ure ana show no signs of apprehension
| that any glaring faults will be discovered
| in their respective departments In other
words, they say they sit secure in their
| own knowledge of righteous dealings in
| the affairs of the District government
| and they are not alarmed over any pos,
sible consequences
| 1t is believed at the District building
| that the report of the committee will not
| pc ready Tor submission to the Commits
sioners before November

Cockrill, town marshal of Jackson two
years ago.
A large posse. including officers of three
counties, started after Britton, determined
to get him today. dead or alive. Former

against Curtis Jet and Thomas White,
brought witnesses here from Breathitt
county, and stated that these witnesses

here, and the warrant issued under the
statute providing that in any case which
has its origin in one county and its culmi-
nation in another either county shall have

This feud broke out with the killing of
Benjamin Hargis by Thomas Cockrill

Thomas Cockri!l was in Jail DR.. Cox. the
guardian of the Coclkrill heirs, was killed
from ambush. and soon afterward James
Cockrill was shot, and the feud continued
until Attorney ]. B. Marcum was shot and
killed at the court house.
Curtis Jet was tried and sentenced to
death In another county for killing James
Cockrill, and that case is now pending be-
fore the court of appeals 1t is alleged
that Jet and Britton acted together in kill
ing Cockrill, and Jett and White in killing
Marcum.
A report received here today said that
VIM. Britton had been arrested ten miles
from jackson. He made no attempt to re-
sist arrest or to escape.
