Injunction Modified

The the case of F. c. Spinks, jr.,vs. G.
l.. Simpson, mayor, and the City Coun'
Gil Of Alexandria, an injunction suit to
prevent the sale by the city OF the cleo
trio plant and the electric franchise,
came up before Judge Barley in the Cor
poration Court today. Mr.. Douglass
Stuart represented the city and Mr.. S.
G. Brent the petitioner. There was no
argument and decree was entered,
which had been agreed upon by all
parties concerned, modifying and dis
missing the original injunction so far as
the City Council is concerned, but con-
tinuing it in full force as to Mayor
Simpson. The City Council is now at
liberty to pass the ordinances for the sale
of the plant and franchise, but the
mayor is enjoined from signing them
or the proposed contract. Should Coun'
ell fail to pass the ordinance the whole
matter will fall and further litigation
will be unnecessary. IT, on the con-
trary, the measure is passed by Council
the case will come up on its merits be-
fore Judge Barley at some future date.

Trouble OH a Train.

There was some excitement on the
north bound Washington and Ohio Rail
road train after it left BluemOnt Sunday
night. The cars were crowded, and
when a resident of the Round Hill
neighborhood, who carried a baby IN his
arms. attempted to pass through the
cars his way was blocked by man who
refused to move. The man with the IN
FAINT handed his charge TO his vile an1
without further ceremony struck the
man who was blocking the aisle The
fight brought a brakeman into the car
who used blackjack or a black bottle
upon the head of the attacking party IN
an endeavor to preserve the peace. The
man TINS assailed bled proiusely, and he
threatened to wreak vengeance upon the
brakeman when opportunity afforded.
As the train neared the Long bridge the
injured man sought the brakeman, when
the latter drew a pistol which he threat
ened to use. This incident brought the
trouble TO a close.

bridges the Washington Southern Rail
way is building across the tributaries OF

necessary by the double tracking of the

which crosses Dogue run, Occoquan run,

The River Trade.

There has recently been complaint
from Alexandria merchants to the eiiecI
that this city is placed at disadvantage
as a competitor for the river trade, IL
being alleged that in some instances
freight can be shipped from Baltimore
to points on the Potomac riyer cheaper
than the same can be sent from Wash
ington and Alexandria. A representa-
tive of the Gazette called on several
prominent shippers this morning who,
in measure. confirmed the circulated
reports. In one instance, it was alleged
that flour had been transported from Balti-
more Ia Glymont at seven cents a barrel
cheaper than the same could be forwarded
from this port 1t is about l75 miles by
water from Baltimore to Glymont; the
latter place is between IS and 20 from
Alexandria. 1t is also said that freight
from Baltimore to landings in certain
tributaries of the Potomac is brought 10
Alexandria from Baltimore and reshlpped
to its destination, passing over about 2oo
miles of water at a fraction more cost
than is charged on the same goods snip
ned direct from Alexandria. This city
has ever had much with which to con-
tend, and if the above assertions are
facts, something should be done towards
cqualizing things and Alexandria be
given chance to compete with the
monumental city for the river trade. OF
course il is but natural for BaltimOreans
to do everything possible TO divert the
river trade to their own city, and that
they are succeeding is evidenced by the
fact that five steamers are nov running
on the Potomac route. Niuety-ive per
cent. of the freight which leaves this
end of the river route, it is asserted, is
nut aboard Of steamers at Alexandria
for the lower river; hence there should
be no discrimination against this city.

All Hands Duped.

A stranger came here yesterday and
engaged Mr. Lewis Smith, Thos. SeIix
and three other men to 60 to Washing
ton with him to bring back a car load OF
,household furniture, some cows, &c.
1Nhe men left here in wagons and while
on 3he road the stranger induced Mr..
Smith to loan him $l5 on a watch, pur-
portpg to be gold, but which afterwards
turneh out to be brass. He also tried to
secure loan of so from Mr.. Sellx but
in this he failed When the party
reached Washington the stranger said
he would ride on n streetcar to the depot
and told the others to meet him there.
They followed in the wagons but failed
to find the stranger, furniture or cows,
and returned to this city realizing that
they had been dupel.
