This Time.

Following a dispute over charges for
two or three drinks at the bar in the
Park -iIotei yoeterday morning. DR..
William Arthm stroie. formerly an
fnterne at the City Hospital, drew a
pistol and held up the manager, Charles
Neisch, bnd the barkeeper, Frank
Asher. and scared several bystanders
nearly out of their wits. while he
walked from the saloon into the street
still brandishing the revolver.
Some one yelled 10 the clerk 10 call
the police. but when the physician
strobe past him with the weapon dis
played and ready for use. he desisted
until the defiant visitor had escaped
from the hotel "A man in the bar
followed Strole, and in the barber shop
OF the Richmond Hotel, where the
physician lad sought refuge the pistol
was taken from him.
Strobe then agreed to return to pay
for the drinks, but the barkeeper re-
fused to accept the money, and a war
rant was sworn out for his arrest
Strole went back in the afternoon, en-
deavoring, with friend or two, to
have the matter quietly settled. but
MIR Atkinson. proprietor of the hotel,
stated that he would push the case
70 an end, having previously had sew
eral unpleasant experiences with the
former inferno.
With companion, DIR. Strole walked
into the bar before breakfast and or
dered drinks for both. He apparently
forgot, or neglected, to pay for othem,
and then started back to get his
breakfast. Asher followed and called
for his money. strole said he would
attend to the matter. but further diff
ficulty occurred. and the eXasperated
bartender snatched the physicians hat
from him.
Drawing his revolver, Strole placed
fits mu2ze under Mr.. Ashers nose
peremptorily ordering that his hat be
returned. Looking down the gun bar
rel, the bartender had but one thought
to return the hat as quickly as pos
sible, which he did. throwing it into
Strole's hands. a Republican Senator
was seated at the lunch counter and
several others were In the place. Strole
was still brandishing his revolver. and
no one dared interfere with him. he
walked out of the rear room, and not
until he rad disappeared were the po-
lice called. A warrant was then sworn
out.
Or. Strole resigned from the City
Home some weeks ago, after having
faced an investigation by the City
Council. Council was lenient and he
was acquitted. He resigned imme-
diately afterward. and left the city.
He returned few days ago, with the
purpose. he stated, of opening offices

mission to Government.

/ After four days of careful inspection
of local conditions. Mr.. Charles e.
kemper assistant supervising archi-
Itect for the government, returned to
Washington yesterday without having
|settled the veNed problem of n tempo
rary location for the United States
Offices pending the erection of the new
Federal building
No place offered here to Mr.. Kemper
would be by any means available with
out extensive alterations. and no def
Unite proposition has vet been made for
| the erection of n building to be rented
Ito the government.
| Site in Capitol Squire.
| The House Of Delegates yesterday
passed Senator Harmon's resolution
differing the southeastern corner of the
Capitol Square to the government as a
| temporary site for a post-ofllce build
ing. When he left Richmond Mr..
kemper was of the opinion that this
is the best suggestion yet made. He
proposes the erection of a large one
story brick building. with about 10000
| square feet of floor space and an abun-
dance Of skylight and ventilation. A
heating plant and storage room could
be provided In the rear or in a small
cellar under part of the building. which
would be Of very simple character,
|of mill construction, such as might
be put up in few months.
| 1T Is barely possible that the state
may arrange to take over the building
after the government is through with
1t. using 1t as printing office, or as
an arsenal and storeroom. The, build
| ing would face on Twelfth Street at
Bank. and would not deface the Capt.
toll Square. as this is the least FREE
Iquented corner Of the park.
| While this one-story building would
provide admirable quarters for the
post office. the government would still
need fifty to sixty rooms for office
purposes. with a suitable courtroom.
These could be scattered over the city.
Revenue Collector Lowry has already
looked at rooms on the ground floor of
the Mutual building for his force.
VIII Have to Build.
Mr.. w. c. Blanton made tentative
proposition yesterday to rent to the
government for offices the Hoen build
| ing, near Twelfth and Bank Streets,
just opposite the proposed site for the
post-oftice. The building has four
stories, and will be remodelled to suit
the government.
The Ballard Hotel at Fourteenth and
Franklin Streets. was also offered to
the supervising architect.
Certainly a building will have to-
be erected for the post office" said Mr..
Kemper Just before leaving. The other
offices may be scattered about wher-
ever we can find room for them"

said thas this matter had been in

that this violation had been broughs
to she attention OF Mr., Hadley, she

had refused 10 prosecute the Anheus-
