plans to secure his pardon. Since be-
ing sent to prison years ago, Olsen
has invented reversible steel rail

enormous decrease in the number of
accidents caused by broken rails.
Former Warden Hcllstrom saw tn
value of Olsen's idea and promoted
company which will Immediately be

has been given sock in the compan

LONG-DELAYED LETTER.
Mailed May 30, 1861, Arrives at Des-
tination May 80, 1913.

A letter written at Fort Washing
ton. MI, May 80, 1861, by Henry
C Russell, Of Pottsville, Pa, civil
war soldier, reached his widow in
Po;tsville, on the 14th ultimo through
the regular channels of the United
States mali. The Letter had been en-
trusted to a comrade, NJ. E. Rich
ards, of Pottstown, Pa. and was new
er sent. Recently Richards didl
and the letter sealed and stamped,
was found among some ord papers.
1t was posted and arrived June IA.
Russell died about five years ago.
The letter contained what the writ
er said was piece of the shirt of
Colonel Ellsworth, of the New York
Fire Zouaves, when he was shot and
killed, May oath, 1861, by James T.
Jackson, when he hauled down the
Confederate flag from the Marshall
House, in Alexandria. The letter is
in an excellent state of preservation.
There were doubtless more relics
sent from the Marshall House to va
rious places in the United States af-
ter the dual tragedy at that place
than would fill government wagon.
A piece of oilcloth upon which
Ellsworth fell after having been shot
by Jackson was cut up into small
strips and forwarded to editors and
others over a large portion Of the
country. The flagstaff upon which
the Confederate flag floated was al
so converted into small pieces and
sent broadcast. Later the stairs and
the railing were split into small
pieces and held as relics.

HEARINGS ON
I. LOVETT'S CHARGES
Broker Lamar Takes Stand
Before Senate Lobby
Committee.
OTHERS TO APPEAR.
House Members Ready to Stir up
Mulhall Charges in Today's Ses-
sion-Sensations Expected.

Washington July 2.-David Lamar
kncwn u a "Wall street insider.'
took the stand this morning shortly
after the Senate lobby committee
began its hearing, to reply 10 the
imputations against him in connec-
lion with Lovctt's charges that Ed
ward Lauterbach engaged in scheme
to force the Union Pacific to retain
him as counsel in connection with
NE, PUnion Pacific reorganjations
Mr.. Lamar appeared voluntarily
and told the committee that it was
his purpose to give complete state
ment Of all the facts he knew with
respect to the matter
While Mr.. Lamar was tesiifying
Louis Cass Ledyard, Maxwell Ev-
arts and Paul D. Cravath prominent
attorneys of New York, who have
also been drawn into the LoveG
charges, were intent listeners.
At the outset Of the hearing, Con-
gressman Calder, of New York, made
8 brief statement with respect to the
Mulhall charges. He denied ever
having known Muhall or having had
any relations with him, and demand
ed that the committee make COM
plete investigation of Mulhall 10 as
certain what basis there was for drag
ging in his name.
Rapid fire developments in the
lobby are coming al both ends Of the
capitol today
These developments are expected
to reach to the general phase Of the
lobby inquiry as well as to the SEN
sation Mulhall charges are constantly
assuming more sensational aspect.
With the senate lobby committee
probing into the mysterious attempt
to fleece Wall Street and trying to
hurry through the sugar and wool lob
by inquiries and with house members
prepared to stir up the Mullhall
charges in the session of the house
today, it is expected there will be
further illumination of the needless
operations of the insidious ones be-
fore night.

BEGINS WORK TODAY.
Alexandria Office Merged With That
of Baltimote-Collectorships Abol-
ished by Change.

Geo. A. Nowland, who has been
deputy collector and Inspector of U.
S. customs for the port Of Alexandria,
for the past sixteen years was today
sworn in as Deputy Collector and In
Spector of the port of Washington,
d. c.
Dating from April l 1898, Mr..
Nowland served two terms under
larshall L. King, as deputy collector
of this por., following which he
served two terms under Lewis Mex.
Fell, as deputy collector.
Under the reorganization of the
customs service Congress has abol-
ished a large number of collector
ships anil consolidated he offices. We
Alexandria office has been merged
with and placed in charge of the Bal
timore custom Office of which VIM.
+. Stone is collector.
Mr.. Nowland was also custodian
of the Alexandria postof1ice build
ing of which the Custom Office is
located. He will serve as custodian
until relieved of his work. No one
has been designated to take his p0-
sition.
The Treasury Department has
made no announcement as yet re-
rarding who will he the successor to
Mr.. Nowiand as deputy collector OF
the port, nor is it known what dis
position will be made of the Office. Ii
is probable that the secretary OF the
treasury will reduce the salary paid
The deputy in charge of this oillce
before appointing a successor to Mr.
Now!and as is in his power to do so.
At one time the port OF AlcXan-
dria transacted more business than
the port of New ork. AZ present,
however, the chief imports are salt,
plaster, rock and crude bone. while
the experts are chiefly beer, which
goes to the West Indies.
Our coastwise imports are very
large but as the government gets no
revenue from coastal trade, it does
not enter into the lists of imports
Of this port on which money IS col
Iecred for duty.
