TUESDAY EVENING. SEP. %, 1905.
The U. :. Internal Revenue office is

THE u. :. Internal Revenue Office is
t. be moved from Alexandria to Abing-
don. The Office was originally located
here, then moved to Roanoke and
Lynchburg and eight years ago was
brought back where it rightly belongs.
Alexandria is peculiarly well located for
the Office. The city is situated on the
Potomac river and every train on the
several big railroads that enters Wash
ington from the South passes through
Alexandria, giving the city unsurpassed
mail and express facilities. During the
past two years the government building
here has been enlarged at an expenditure
of S75, 200 and fitted especially for the
internal revenue office. Abingdon is q
small town Of but 300 population; but
one railroad passes through the town
and the government building there is in
adequate for revenue Office purposes,
which fact has been stated by a govern
ment Inspector Yet, with these ad-
vantsges in favor of Alexandra, the
Office is to be removed to Abingdon for
political reasons and for these alone.
Abingdon is in the Ninth district, the
only republican district in Virginia.
Congressman Slemp lives in that district
and so does Mr.. Summers, the recently
appointed collector. Secretary Shaw is
an ayowed candidate for the presidency
aud Mr.. Slemp has promised him the
vote of Virginia in the next republican
convention. To strengthen his hold on
the Ninth district, Mr.. Slemp has de-
manded that the internal revenue office
be removed there and the demand has
been complied with. Mr.. Slemp has as
much chance of carrying Virginia for
the republican party as has Secretary
Shaw of being elected President, but be
has made the Secretary believe so and. as
the deal is on, the revenue office will be
removed.

The Suit Case Mystery.

Boston, Sept. 26.-Today the police
who are engaged in solving the mystery
Of the dress suit case horror are of the
opinion that a ray of light has penetrat-
ed the gloom as the result of yesterday s
developments. Having partially traced
the suit case containing the body Of a
young woman, which was found
floating in Winthrop harbor last Thurs
day. the police are proceeding to the
next step in the case-the search for
the missing members of the body. These
they believe will be found in another
dress suit case sunk in the channel at
Winthrop, and Captain Alfred Sorensen,
the diver, has been hired to explore the
bottom of the harbor for them today.

Gen. Porter Visits President.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 26.-Gen-
era Horace Porter, former United
States Ambassador to France, left for
New York today. General Porter has
been a guest at the home of Mrs. j..
West Roosevelt for several days. He
also paid visit to President Roosevelt.
"My visit was purely a social one, and
nothing important was talked Of. | do
not regard the Moroccan situation at all
alarming, and think that foreign mat
tiers generally, as far as the Unite |
States is concerned, are in very salts
factory condition, said General Porter.
81 am glad to see that President Roose-
welt is able to take such a good vacation
every year. 1t puts him in fine shape
physically for the exacting duties of his
office at Washington. What parti-
cularly pleases me in this connec-
ton, is the fact that | was the pri-
vate secretary of General Grant when
he inaugurated the idea. He was
the first President to leave Washington
for summer vacation, and in starting
the custom, he brought down storm of
criticism upon his head. His critics
loudly cried that he was deserving his
post, false to his trust, and all that sort
of buncombe. He went to Long Branch
every summer. Since his day. all the
Presidents have taken summer vacation
trips, and have all been the better for it..

New York Stock Market

New York, Sept. 26.-Commission houses
we're generally sellers of stocks around the
room at the opening and during the first few
minutes, but after moderate declines the room
traders started covering Of shorts and took
the long side in an effort To force a rally.
They were successful. but found no demand
back of them and an absence Of what they
called banking support. Notices were sent
out by J. p. Morgan \ Co making the rate
on call money loaned by them at four per
cent for a day, and this was used for time as
a reason for the traders buying Louisville.
The large operators, though, have not shown
their hand On either side Of the market and
seem to be disposed TO let it take care of itself
for the present.

A Menaeerie at Sea.

A badly lacerated crew arrived in New
York yesterday on the steamer lndrama-
70, guarding a cargo of wild animals
from Chinese and japanese ports. Six
eopards and two big snakes caused most
of the injuries which were inflicted by
the animals during an exciting voyage.
Besides these animals the Indramayo
started out with an elephant, six mon
keys of large and savage species and
some smaller animals. The leopards
from their cages succeeded in decorating
the arms and legs of six sailors who at
tempted to feed them on the rolling,
pitching ship. In the Red Sea, one OF
the snakes which weighed 200 pounds
and was twenty-three feet long, escaped
from his cage and crawled out upon the
deck about dawn. During host of the
forenoon the entire crew fought and roll
ed about the deck in struggle to get
the snake back into his cage. They n
nally succeeded. Four day ago the ele-
plant died from complications resulting
from sea sickness, and the animals body
WAS thrown overheard.

War Draft Made Him Infidel.

George P. Dnesbach, a well-known
resident of Scotch Valley, Pa, and an
ardent believer in the doctrines OF
Robert Ingersoll, is dead at his home at
that place after an illness of several weeks,
aged II years. Driesbach was be-
lever in God until the breaking out Of
the civil war, when he was averse TO fight
ing, and prayed long and fervently to
God to preserve him and prevent him
from being drafted. He was drafted,
however, and from that moment he re-
nounced all faith in the Deity and be-
came very hostile to the government.
Once during the war he hoisted the
Confederate flag and at another time the
flag of the Fishing Greek Coniederacy.
Notwithstanding this he was appointed
postmaster of his home village shortly
after the close of the war and filled the
position until recently.
