RELICS OF THE WAR.
Police Asked to Find Them by the
Owner.

An old man of the Horace Greeley type
and a modern David Harum for shrewdness
named Sarton walked into police head
quarters yesterday afternoon and reported
the loss of some valuable heirlooms and
relics Of the civil war, which he valued
highly from a sentimental standpoint He
asked the aid of the local police in trying
to locate the articles, and close watch
will be kept for the missing property. 1t
includes an old shotgun. two razors and
$16O In confederate $40 notes
or the missing property the old man ex-
pressed the greatest regret about the dou-
bIe-barreled shotgun. The gun has a his
tory that made 1t very valuable to it's own
err. 1t was of English make and was
brought to this country long time before
the civil war. 1t was such valuable gun
that the purchaser was compelled to de-
post the purchase price. 500 in cash. In
the bank of Alexandria before 1t would be
shipped. The gun was a Misunderstanding
one with two barrels. On the handle was
a mounting of silver, upon which were en-
Rraved pictures of animals that might be
hunted by the weapon, including squirrels.
rabbits, etc.
During the civil war this gun was used
by captain of the northern army Sar-
ton was scout for the other side, in the
country south Of Alexandria, and one day
when he was on an errand for his side he
ran across this captain and another Union
soldier. Their guns were taken away from
them when they were captured by the
scouting party. and thus this gun fell into
the hands of Mr.. Sarton. He subsequently
learned Its history previous to his possess
sion. Since the war Mr.. Sarton says that
he has used the gun every fall and spring
for hunting, and that unless 1t is recovered
now he will miss 1t very much this fall.
The gun was kept in the corner of the
living room In his home at Francona, Va.
from which place 1t was recently stolen
Mr.. Sarton said that he learned that q
colored boy had been arrested here with
gun and he came here to learn IL 1t was his
gun.
The razors have similar history, he
said. In another raid, In which Mr.. Sar-
ton was interested. these fell to him in the
division OF the spoil.
An interesting story Is told Of the an
cestor OF Mr.. Sarton, who came to this
country during the war with Great Britain
for independence In an English frigate
Several OF the crew escaped from the ship.
and, waving white shirt tall at the end OF
their muskets. they marched into the
American ranks and enlisted in that cause.

towns in this vicinity. you know. are
ideal places of residence and have attract

"spenders," living In expensive houses and
giving up their lives to rest and enjoy
ment. There are no manufactures and no
trade; only enough stores TO supply the
wants of the people. which are many and
expensive. There are no saloons. but eleven
public schools. a polytechnic institute and

tells are famous the world over. and In the

ALEX NDRIA AFFAIRS
POLICE SEARCHING FOR MAN
WHO ESCAPED FROM CUSTODY.
Feigned Sickness and Made Dash for
Liberty-Genera1 and Per-
sonal News.

Special Correspondence OF The Star.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, September 2 1908.
The police of this city are looking for a
negro known as Baltimore, who
was arrested this morning on suspicion of
attempting burglary last night, and who
later in the day escaped from the station
house by working a ruse, to the discom-
future OF Policeman Roberts, the officer
then in charge at the police headquarters.
Baltimore was arraigned at the morning
session Of the police court. but his case was
continued in order to afford more time for
the collecting Of further evidence. He was
arrested late last night by Officers Bell and
Allen upon the complaint Of Mr.. Fred
Schuler. who reported at the station house
that a negro had attempted to burglarize
the store Of the M. Schiller Beef Company
on King street about 10 o'clock that night.
After his case was continued this morning
Baltimore was again locked in cell on the
lower floor.
Throughout the morning he feigned sick
ness. and in the afternoon on some pre-
text he persuaded Officer Roberts to let
him out for few minutes in the corridor.
The officer then turned his attention to an
other prisoner. when seizing the opportu-
nifty with suddenness that, to say the
least. was disconcerting. Baltimore dashed
past Roberts and succeeded in reaching the
street.
Officer Roberts. whose corpulence inter-
feres considerably with his speed, imme-
diately started in pursuit, but found him
self altogether outciassed in the race with
the heet-footed negro. In less than a min
ute the latter was out Of reach around the
corner. His course thereafter was unin-
terrupted, despite the loud cries Of the po-
liceman. who called to persons on the street
to catch the fugitive. Baltimore has an I'M
enviable police record, including a variety
of offenses. The easy way In which he
managed his trickery. 1t Is said, was sur
prising. 1t is understood the incident WILL
be included in the regular report Of the
chief Of police to the police commissioners.

New Orleans, Aug Excitement In
country districts seems to have grown
more acute with the discovery of fe-
yer cases at other points. A whole
trainload of passengers on the Iron
Mountain road has been held up in
Concordia parish, removed from any
h%abitation for some time. Passengers
have been loud in their protests de.
claring that neither food nor water
had been supplied.
Monroe, La, with fever on three
sides has put the militia and armed
citizens on every road.
New Iberia, La, has put a curfew
law into effect.
Columbus, Miss, has decided to
guard against infriction by use OF RI
nes.
Many smaller town are passing mos
quito ordinances.
Alexandria is completely bottled up.
but allows through trains to bring in
provisions, If properly fumigated, In
order to prevent starvation.
st. Louis, Aug. 3.-Chief of police
today ordered captains of all districts
to instruct thier men TO be alert for
yellow fever. Tenement districts and
lodging houses must be especially
watched. While these precautions are
taken It is not believed fever will
break out here.

Tine government crop report
came within one-tenth Of one
per cent of the figure We had
placed in predicting what the
report would show during the
past week.
This fully confirms recent pri-
vdte reports and very plainly
shows that the crop is actually
threatened witt failure and that
the seCson may prove a calami-
tous one to the producer, until
weatl er con ditions from now on
are of the most perfect character
and result in the production of a
top crop to Offset the partial loss
of the bottom or middle crop.
Todays government report,
must be accepted by the trade
as representing the consensus of
opinion of the best experts here
and at New Orleans rs we'll as
Liverpool and throughout the
South. The conservative char
acter Of the report indicates that
the agricultural bureau is recov
ering from the decentralization
which resulted from the scandal
in reference to the June report.
Present indications do not
promise a crop of more than 9
ID or 10 million bales. On this
basis indications are for higher
prices regardless of present ma
nipulations.
