The officers Of the Washington and Po-
tomac line steamer Harry Randall re-
port that four colored men, residents Of
the Curriomen neighborhood of West
moreland county. Va, were drowned in
one of the branches Of Curriomen bay,
tributary of the Potomac. Wednesday last.
The four men had been to a cornhusking

Ing to cross the creek in a small boat the
boat upset. and though there were but
four feet of water in the creek. the bot
tom is of such soft mud that they were
unable to get footing in it and sank un-
der the water.
Three of the bodies were recovered
Thursday. but that of the fourth man had
not been recovered when the steamer left

WHO STARTED CHICKEN ROW f?
MYSTERY SURROUNDS ORIGIN
OF THE OBNOXIOUS ORDER.
Suspended Regulation Seems to
Have Been a Founding at
Municipal Building.

Mystery surrounds the origin of the
chicken regulation which was Temporal
rily suspended by the Commissioners
Thursday as a result of numerous angry
protests from chicken owners. and which
is to be amended SO as to be more agree
able by the corporation counsel.
The chief of police and the health officer
deny that they either inspired or framed
missioners are likewise certain that they
did not. Commissioners West and Nor
row were surprised to learn the other
day that such an amendment to the regu-
lation governing chickens had been pro-
muleated by the Commissioners. 1t was
made official, they say. during their alb
sence from the city, and from an au-
thentic source it was stated that had
they been in the city the regulation would
never have been approved.
1t is considered likely that by the time
the corporation counsel. who has been
intrusted with the work of revising the
amendment. gets through with his work,
and the regulation is again promulgated
by the Commissioners. 1t will not bear
the slightest trace of the original regu-
lation. 1t is understood it will be amend
ed so as to exempt that part of the city
Known as the county. A number of other
prominent changes will be made.
One Mans Chickens an Exception.
The Commissioners have received a let
ter from an aroused chicken owner, in
which the writer stated that the law
should not apply to the suburbs or coun-
ty. He says he has some chickens but
they are not troublesome, aand he pleaded
for permission to retain them.
My neighbors cannot object" said the
writer. Il have not any ROSTERS of the
fog-horn type. My roosters have soft,
musical voices. and when they crow

ing to the mind in these strenuous days.
