Defense of Washington.

The anniversary of the battle of Fort Stevens recalls three days of great excitement in this city. General Early, flushed with victory and fresh from Frederick. Md, where he had extracted $200,000 ransom money, moved down the Brightwood road to take possession of this city. General Grant. anticipating such move. had dispatched General Wright with the Sixth corps to defend the city, but when Early's advance guard arrived Wright had not been sighted. The de lenders that had been organized from the war department and treasury clerks and others in the government offices were sent to Fort Stevens under the command of Quartermaster Gen eral Meigs, and all of one day these men held the fort. Wright arrived with his veterans the second day and put Early to rout.
 During the enga cement local busi- hess men were in a highly nervous state. and plans were made by many residents to fee from the city at a mo- ment's notice.
 President Lincoln was present at Fott Stevens during part of the first and second days of the fight and urged the soldiers to do their best

A hero's Epitaph.

some one reminded him of his own de plorabie condition. Then it was that he uttered the memorable words that are chiseled on his monument:
 .'Never mind me. I'm all right. Look after those other fellows"
 James Thomas Cruse, the hero of the Georgia explosion, was kentuckian. He was just nineteen years and seven months of age when death came. Ills remains were inferred at Arlington last July, but the monument was only recently erected.
 His father, Major Thomas Cruse, IS auartermaster in charge of the depot at Boston
 When all the injured had been cared for after the explosion the injuries of Midshipman Cruse were found to be serious. He was taken to the Naval hospital at Chelsea, Mass. and three naval surgeons were detailed to look after him constantly.
 He was cheered by cablegrams from all over the world praising his gal lantry and sacrifice for his comrades. President Roosevelt sent him flowers every day.
 He finally suecumbed to the terrible injuries he had received.

WAR IS POSSIBLE
AUSTRIA WILL HOLD ON 70 Ros-
MA AND HERsEeovINlA. AND
RRAe MORE IF POSSIBLE.

Vinenna, Ovt S.---War between
Austria Hungary and Servia is a
recognized possibility, although it is
believed here that it will be avoided.
King Peter is in a difficult position
on account of the clamor of the Ser
VANS for war, particularly since his
tenure on the throne has been very
often threatened. Austrians on their
part have a new feeling of national
enterprise on account of the forward
movement in the annexation of Bos-
mia and Herzegovina, and will be
more ready now for a ventura than
they were a week ago. The govern
ment recognizes the possibility of
military precautions in Hungary. All
bridges over the Save and the Danube
near the Servian frontier are strongly
guarded by patrol and four Danube
river monitors were concentrated at
Budapest today. The government ex-
planned that this ,maneuver was plan;
ned some time ago., but the Austrians
would have Belgrade at the mercy of
their guns if that were necessary.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. S.-The IL
lumation Of the squadron of battle
ships and cruisers at anchor in the
harbor, the play of the naval search
lights and the brilliant fireworks
along the three miles of the city's

Practically the entire interest of
the day centered about the water

The parading ships were headed by
Admiral Adolph Mark of the navy,
