Ironly a part of the statements which come from the Little Falls in regard to the violation of the fish laws at that point are correct, the District and Maryland authorities cannot be too prompt nor too earnest in their efforts to put stop to the abuses practiced there. The com- plaint is that dip nets are constantly being used for the capture of black bass, In the rapid ‘ers above the Chain bridge, both inside the District and In Maryland. At’ this season the bass are pushing their way up stream for the purpose of depositing their spawn, and ad- ¥aniage is taken by the poachers of the well own habit of this fish to le temporarily in the small eddies and below the rocks while acing their way up the falls, and in these places the nets are placed with great success, A liftjs rarely made that does not bring up from | one gio half a dozen fine bass, weighing from | nal pound to five pounds each. ‘The nefarious | business has been going on for several days past and indeed ever since the bass have commenc running, and on Tuesday not less than two hun- dred were taken, according to the testimony of these competent’ to speak on the subject. In Ubis way the lawful practice of angling in that y 1s compietely broken up, and at the © tlie Spawners are now being’ captured it Lnot take very long to destroy the whole pply. in the stream between the Little and Falls, It is understood that the duty of raking arrests for these violations of law with- in the ‘Distriet lines rests with the mounted police; but as soon as one of the force comes in ‘ht Che work of netting stops and the nets are putoutotsight. The only way in which the practice can be broken up is to send officers there disguised as anglers or hunters, with au- thority to make arrests, and this the authorities shovid cause to be done. Ni point of , but every citizen of the District is uilected by the practice, since it tends to me- terlally \aterfere with the future food supply of | the eity. See ‘The Chinese Embassy.

Mr. James McUartby, of Jacksonville, Fia., at- rived in Chicago Thursday from Detroit, Mich., where he had been specially detailed by several of Senator Jones’ personal friends, as well as the press of that section, to investigate the reasons for the Senator's strange actions, and to ascertain the cause for his prolonged absence from bis postof duty in Washington. MeCarthy positively discredits the reports about Benator jones drinking to excess and his mental un- soundness, which have been extensively pub- lished. Mr. McCarthy says he found one reason for Mr. Jones remaining in Detroit, was because he was largely interested ina new manufactur- Dg enterprise, now being gotten up by W. G. mpson, the ex-mayor; James lis, ex- rosecuting attorney; D. J. Campau, and Mo- lillian Brothers, in ich several millions of dollars are being invested. He already largely discredits the reports about his devo- tion to the wealthy Miss Palms. He learned that the health of that lady has been seriously impaired by the ‘publieldy given her name throughout the country in connection with that of Senator Jones, but she is still in Detroit. Mr. McCarthy quotes’ Senator Jones aa giving the following explanation of his Prolonged stay in Detroit: “When I camo to Detroit in the first place it was to seek recuperation and rest, and my stay hag been prolonged beyond my expec- tations, or, I might add, personal inclinations. But the local press, subsequently augmented by the papers of my‘own state and others, have taken it upon themselves to publish certain stories relating to my personal weltare. I don’t ropose to be placed in a ridiculous position be- (0) many friends in Detroit and elsewhere by thelr declarations. Ihave been giving my Personal attention to matters relating to my Senatorial duties, as they required. Other Sena- tors have absented themselves for a greater period of time, of which there has been scarcely @ mention made, and I don’t see why I should be made such @ conspicuous exception. My health has about returned, and I shall very soon go back to Washington if the members of the press are satisfied to give up their attack.” ————es____ Ex-President Arthur's Il From the New York World, At ex-President Arthur's residence last even- ing the attendant satd in regard to Mr. Arthur's condition: “He is greatly improved. He sits in a chair part of the time and walks about a little, There is not the slightest cause for alarm in regard to his illness.” Dr. Peters, the attending physician, who was seen at his’ residence, said: “The reports con- cerning Mr. Arthur's ‘illness have been greatly exaggerated. He is in no immediate danger, and will be out as soon as the weather permits.” “What is the cause of Mr. Arthur's illness?” ‘here 18 no mystery about his malady, but I prefer not to talk about it, us it would be a reach of confidence on my’part, However, can assure you that he is not seriously ill, aud will be out driving before long.” 0s. Conquering Vicious Horse. PROF. GLEASON’S VICTORY OF A STALLION THAT LAST WEEK KILLED HIS GROOM, From the New York Times. ‘The Cosmopolitan theater was crowded last night with people anxious to see Prof. 0. R. Gleason, the horse trainer, handle the vicious Canadian stallion that killed his groom a week ago. When people entered the house they saw a big brown horse standing inside an inclosure of board fence, painted green. Prof. Gleason appeared a few minutes aiter eight and spoke briefly to the audience. He intimated that most horses had more intelligence than their drivers, and, atter a few encouraging remarks, entered | the pen with the stallion, carrying a whip and a gocked revolver loaded with blank cartridges, He spoke to the animal in a lond tone, and then walked toward him, The stallion moved tuto a corner of the pen and turned his heels toward the professor. Instantly ne received several stinging blows around the hind legs. Then he turned his head toward the professor, who cau- ously reached out his hand and patted the beast on the shoulder. ‘Two or three times this Was repeated, cach time the trainer going closer to the horse, Suddvnly there was cry from the audience, Like a flush the stallion had turned and seized | the professor’ by the right forearm with his gleaming white ‘teeth, The instructor dropped his whip and with a violent effort wrenched his arm free, Then he fired the revolver several times in front of the brute’s nose. ‘The ammal sprang wildly around the ring and nearly Knocked down the fence. In afew moments he | Tan into acorner again. ‘Then the protessor resumed his former tactics. He made the horse stop at the word “whoa” a number of | times, ‘Tuen he began to pat him on the near | shoulder again. Once more the angry beast whirled and snapped at the professor's breast, hitting hima powerful blow with his strong teeth. The revolver came into play again. Then the animal's hind legs were lashed. Once more the professor patted him. The animal’s coat was wet and he was blowing like a racer, He made no more attempts to bite. In just 25 minutes alter entering the penProf, Gleason put a halter on the station, and had the fence taken down. Then he called for a small rope, and put a double Buonaparte on the horse. He passed the rope around his neck, through his mouth, over the top of his head, under his upper lip, and through the cirelé around his neck. He made the stallion follow him wherever he went. ‘Then he put a bridle on him and tool off the Buonaparte. Next he put on a big surcingle with wring underneath, ‘Two straps were put around the animal's fore fetlocks. A rope was fustened to the near one, passed through the ring in the sureingle, down through the ring in the other fetlock strap, and back through the surctngle ring. ‘Then a pair of reins were put on and the professor drove lhe animal around the ring, usiug tbe rope to hoist the near fore foot whenever the brute tried to Kick. Ina short time he put harness on him, hitched him to a buggy, Jumped in and drove ‘him, finally starting itn and stopping him by verbal command. Then he hada big brassdrum hammered near his head, aud tin pans and sleigh bells rattled. ‘The stallion went straight up to them and was not annoyed by them aiter a tew trials. ‘The professor laid down the lines, put his teet on uhe dashboard, and fired the re- volver. ‘fhe stallion stood ‘like a statue, A horse afraid of paper was next brought in. ‘The professor soon uud paper ail around his head, threw it at him, made nim walk over it and act as if there was nothing in the world he liked better than paper. A kicker was put into double harness with this horse, and beth acted beautifully. To-night the professor will take hold of a mustang that hus the reputation of being a desperate kicker, 900 DISEMBOWELED BY A NEGRO.—About one o'clock Wednesday morning E. M.
