H., Fayette county, Ohio, two confidence men induced William Kauffman to play with them a trick game of cards and win 36,000, but before paying it required him to produce $6,000 to show them that he was able to pay in case he had lost. The old man went to the bank and borrowed $6,000 in bills and returned to the farm where, as soon as he displayed the money. the men seized itand with drawn revolvers drove off, leaving the old man to realize his situation. He acted promptly and by the use of the telegraph descriptions of the men were sent out. Marshal Duley, of Leesburg, found the men at New Vienna waiting for a Cincinnati train, due in seven minutes, He promptly arrested them, and found $6,126 on the person of one of them, most of it in the packages as received from the bank. The man having the money gave the name of George Carter and also had registered at a hotel as H. H. Morton, of Toledo. He is about thirty-five years of age, wore full brown beard and mustache, has ever, fine teeth, lips firmly set. aquiline nose, and weighs about 150 pounds. His confederate, Black, was released upon the assurance of men in New jenna that he was a well-known commercial traveler. Marshal Duley gets a reward of 2,000, offered for the arrest of the thief and recovery of the money. It is Kepam, Carter is a professional confidence man and that he will be wanted in other places for similar crimes, He is now at Washington Court-House jail. = COLLECTOR ERHARDT. He Takes Possession of His Office This LOOK OUT FOR APPOINTMENTS. New District Commissioners and Public Printer Likely to be Named this Week. Look out for presidential appointments this week, All the politicians who have ‘seen the President lately, and especially those who con- versed with him to-day, believe that a number of the more important, but heretofore neglected places, will speedily be filled. Especially inter- esting to Washingtonians is the apparently well authenticated rumor that the District Commis- sioners are to be displaced this week and their vacant chairs filled with such men as the Presi- dent believes to be best fitted for the places. The members of the present board, backed by a powerful syndicate of corporation interests, have done almost everything that was possible to bring about a reappointment. But they seem to have failed to impress upon the President that they were fit men to succeed themselves, The President talked Commissioner this morn- ing to Jesse B. Wilson, and this he would hardly have done on Monday unless he intended taking action immediately. Monday is the day on which the President excludes the* politician, and only those who receive a special invitation are allowed to enter the library. Ina some- what vague and indefinable manner it is gener- ally understood at the White House that the new Commissioners will be appointed in a few days. THE PUBLIC PRINTER PUZZLE, too, has reached that point where it can hardly be regarded as difficult of solution. Washington has been very much excited over that matter and the merits and demerits of the various and numerous candidates have been pretty thoroughly discussed. Who would be appointed was as much of a mu the identity of the pugilistic man_ who was alleged to have : struck one William Patterson, Suddenly the name of Frank W. Palmer arose to the sur- face. It had not been heard before, and the hundreds who had allied themselves to the candidates already in the field hastened to tind Morning. New York, May 6.—The newly-appointed collector of the port, Joel B. Erhardt, took possession of his office this morning, and Mr. Magone retired, after turning over the office to his successor. The new collector was introduced to the at- tachés of the office. Mr. Magone says he would remain in the city for a few days and then return to his home in Ogdensburg. His relations, he said. with the public and the press had been pleasant. No man could handle an important position like the collectorship of New York without making some euemies. His administration had been criticized, but he thought the merchants of New York would bear him out when he said that he had tried to do his duty. ee BAFFLED BOOMERS. Making their Way Back in Large Num- bers. Cutcaco, May 6.—A special from Arkansas city says; The suffering of the bafiled boomers finds most prominent evidence along the northern border. Yesterday 1.000 wagons on the march down and 800 wagons on the way back were counted. The groves in the Arkan- eas and Walaut river valleys that offered camps for the boomers before the descent are filling zgain with the returning unfortunates. There are hundreds of families among them who have sold everything to make the trip and now have nothing else. The sight of men, women, and children, who are thus unprovided for and desolete. with the mere frames of horses surviving to drag them along. is pitiful. Guthrie still holds the majority of population and is not yet symetrically forme: homa Cit: is the most site. Capt.

Now everybody is waiting to hear the announcement of the signing of Mr. Palmer's commission.

It may seen rather odd to some people to have a Pennsylvanian appointed n judge in Florids, but if this is done the Flordians will have none but themselves to blame for it, for the republicans down there have failed to agree upon a man for the place. They did put up a young mon named Wartz, supported by ex-Representative Bisbee and Captain Durkee, the latter a schoolmate and life-lo: friend of Attorneysicneral Miller, The appointment was almost made when the poople of Florida heard of it, and then they sent up such a howl that the matter was laid on the table for awhil Then other candidates were set up and as often knocked down. until the Department of Justice — became weary.

Admiral Porter was doing a regular quarter- deck walk up and down the floor of his office when a Stan reporter called this morning to ask him if he had anything to say in answer to the direct charge, made by Gen. Ben. Butler, that the admiral had, once upon a time, run away from his duty. ._ The Boston Herald quotes Gen. Butler as say- ing in an interview that Admiral Porter is the naval officer to whom he referred in his speech Wednesday night as running away at the battle of New Orleans. He also said: “At the time the forts were eet by Farragut I was following him where could see the whole proceedin, . I was well up the river. on my beadquar. ters boat, the Saxon, watching the rogress of the fight. Porter was in command of the morter flotilla and was or- dered to bombard the water batteries below Fort Jackson after Farragut had passed up. Farragut got well by the forts about sunrise, and it was about 7 o'clock, or after perhaps, ane the incident connected with Porter took place. “My army was nearly thirty miles down stream on transports, which were anchored at the head of the passes. About the time I have mentioned my men on the transports = saw Porter's whole flect rushed down the river pell me!l and out to sea, When Porter rushed by my troops he cried out, ‘The rebels are coming down the river:get out of here as fast as you can.’ He came back the next day.” A WASTE OF GOOD AMMUNITION, “Am I going to reply to Butler? Well, I think I will. It seems to me as though it is a waste of good ammunition, but I suppose I will have to quiet him. As I have taken the matter up, I think I had better crush him, and I don’t know what agency can perform that little job more satisfactorily than official documents. How is this scrap of testimony. A LETTER PROM SECRETARY WELLES. “Navy Department, May 10, 1862. “Sr: Your dispatch of April 30, inclosing the articles of capitulation of Forts’ Jackson and St. Philip, which surrendered on the 28th, after a bombardment of one hundred and forty-four consecutive hours by the mortar flotilla, has T have also to acknowledge the receipt of the flags taken in the two forts on that occasion, including the original one hoisted on Fort St. Philip when the confederate forces declared the state of Louisiana to have seceded » | from the Union, which have been sent forward to the department. ~The important part which you have borne in the organization of the mortar flotilla, and the movement on New Orleans, had identitied your naine with one of the most brilliant naval i ts on record; and to your able ith the flotilla is Flag-Officer Far- ragut much indebted for the successful results he has accomplished.

Now, if [had been running away how could the forts have surrendered to me, and is it likely that the Secretary of the Navy would have congratulated us if we had been guilty of cowardice? After passing the forts Farragut wrote to me detailing his experiences during the passage, and some of the events which took place im: mediately afterward. In that letter he said: “if the general (Butler) will come up to the bayou and land afew men, or as many as he pleases, he will find two of ‘our gunboats there to protect him from the gunbosts that are at the forts. I wish to get to the English Turn where they have not placed a battery yet, bit they have two above. nearer New Orleans. They will not be idle and neither will. You supported us most nobly. very truly, yours, D. G, Farraovt.” LETTER FROM THE CONFEDERATE COLONEL. “That doesn’t look as though I run- ning away, does it? The rebels never charged me with giving way an inch, and we certainly should have heard from them if they had suc- ceeded in scaring ys off, even if it was only for a little while. ere is a statement from Col. Higgins, who commanded the forts our mor- tars were pounding at: “Wasuinaton, April 4, 1872, “Dean Sm: I send you, according to re- quest, a statement of the esntion of Forts jackson and St. Philip, below New Orleans, at the termination of the bombardment of those forts by the mortar vessels under your ¢bm- mand, and at the time of the passage of the steam fleet which captured New Orleans, ‘To begin: Your mortar vessels were placed in po- sition on the afternoon of the 17th April, 1562, and opened fire at once upon Fort Jac where my headquarters were established. practice was excellent from the commence- ment of the fire to the end,and continued with- out intermission until the morning of the 24th of April, when the fleet passed, at about 4 o'clock.

Iwas obliged to confine the men most rigidly to the casements, orwe should have lost the best part of the garrison. ‘A shell striking the parapet over one of the magazines (the wall of which was 7 thick) penetrated 5 feet and failed to burst. shell had exploded your work would have ended, Another burst near the magazine door, opening the earth and burying the sentinel and another man 5 feet in the same grave. The parapets aud interior of the fort were com- pletely honey-combed, and the large number of sand-bags, with which we were supplied, alone saved us from being blown to pieces a bundred times, our magazine doors being much exposed, On the morning of the 24th, when the fleet passed, the terrible precision with which your formidable vessels hailed down their tons of bursting shell upon the devoted fort, rendered it impossible for us to obtain either rapidity or accuracy of fire, and thus rendered the passage comparatively easy. ‘There was no very considerable damage done to our batteries, but few of the guns being dis- mounted by your fire: everything else in and around the fort was destroyed.

I'll give him enough of a reply, however. I'll fire it at him for the next three weeks, and then he will let me alone for five years. I shall not hear any more from him during my lifetime for I don’t expeet to live another five years. I suppose he was celebrat- ing his (?) capture of New Orleans. He claims it, I understand. although the city was in the possession of the marine corps for fully three days before Butler and his troops got there. I know that because I towed them.” Trouble in the Treasury. Michael K. Coleman was charged in the Police Court to-day with an assault on John Little.

Mr. Cleveland’s Stable Outfit Under the Auctioneer’s Hammer. THE SCENE AT THE SALE THIS AFTERNOON—-THE SEAL BROWNS GO TO MR. JOHN E. BEALL—THE CARRIAGES, LIVERIES, AND OTHER ARTICLES SOLD. The seal browns stood in front of Wood Bros, stables on M street at noon to-day attached to a brougham, On the sidewalk was a throng of livery stable men and of persons attracted either from curiosity or from business instinct to the sale of the seal browns and the carriages and stuble outfit belonging to ex-President Cleveland. In the office of the stables, sitting where he could observe all that went on in front, sat Marshal Wilson, who occasionally had a conference with Mr. C. C. Duncanson, the auctioneer, The several carriages belonging to Mr. Cleveland's establishment were standing at the curb. The seal browns were harnessed in the brougham, with the silver harness bear- ing the monogram “G. C.” on the head piece. A colored man sat on the box, but it was not Albert. Secretary Blaine drove up in his car- riage and looked’ critically at the carriages over which the red flag floated. Then he had a long conference with ex-Represen- tative Swett, who was one of the throng on the sidewalk, and then drove away, Mr. Blaine, itis said, wanted to buy the vic- toria, When it was finally offered under the hammer Mr. Swett made 1 bid on it, but he did not go high enough. Ex-Senator Van Wyck also examined the horses ond carriages through his spectales aud remained through the sale, but his desire to possess himself of the articles offered if he had any, did not manifest itself in the form of a bid. At high noon a colored mam began ringing a la: auction bell, and Auctioneer — Ratcliffe stood up in one of the open carriages to begin business, Just at that hour, too, the thousand or fo of colored children in the Sumner school building opposite streamed out of the building for their noon recess, anda small army of them gathered around the anctioncer and the group of men who came there to bid. SELLING THE SEAL BROWNS, The seal browns were put up first and the auctioneer began his harangue. This is the team that was purchased by Mr. Cleveland through a friend in Syracuse soon after he came to Washington and shipped to thiscity. The price paid for them was at the time to be between 2600 and $700. They were sold together to-day, the bids received, however, being for each horse separately. The bidding was started at $100 apiece. “They ought to bring $350 apiece.” said the autioncer, with atone of contempt for the bid; but he went onall the same, ringing the changes on the bid, stopping to have the team driven up and down in front of the crowd to show off their movement. Thus he worked the bidding up to 2125, and at length gota bid of $135 from Mr. Allson Nailor, jr. Here the thing came to a standstill for a few minutes. “Suppose you let them go up the street again.” said Mr. Ratcliffe to the driver. “Maybe Tl get another bid out of it.” So the whip was cracked and the seal browns were trotted the length of the square and back, and a ‘bid of $140 was made, Mr. Ratcliffe shouted, “a hundred and forty, going, going, going, ata hundred and forty. until he was quite red and hoarse, and the re- sult was he got a bid of S141. ‘He could not get a se” on that from anyone in the crowd, and so knocked the horses down at #141 apiece to Mr. John E. Beall. THE CARRIAGES AND LIVERIFS. The bidding on the other articles was not very lively, and the purchasers all got good bargains, according to the opinion of experts. The brougham was sold to Samuel E. Burns for #450. The landau for which Mr. Cleve- nd id $1,400, was sold to C. W. Hayes ‘or $650. The Victoria said to have cost M Cleveland 21,000, was bought by Mr. J. E. Beall for 2485. Mr. Beall also bought the silver mounted harness with the monogram for 262.50, and two suite of light-colored livery, with silver buttons, and green striped vest, one suit costing him 14.25 and the other $14.75. Mr. Beall bought also an extra reins for $1.25, three lap robe a green carriage robe for $4, a pair of rubb: blankets with hoods for $1.25. a pair of halters for 9) cents each, a whip for 9 cents and two airs of traces for $4.25. He emerged ‘om = the ie with a complete outtit, carriage. ‘orses, liveries and trappings. Three dark-green’ livery coats were seld to Wood Bros, for $3.25 each, and three pants, matching them, were sold to D. Cauley for $3 each. A black tur robe J. W. Martin for $12.

This disposed of all the articles belonging to Mr. Cleveland, except tie horses and carriage which Mrs, Cleveland use] to drive. and which she took with her to New York.

The President Seeking Information About the Candidates, It is understood that the President is con- sidering the appointment of two District Com- missioners to succeed Messrs. Webb and Wheat- ley, whose terms of office expired in March last, and in order to acquire all the informa- tion possible in regard to the various formal cendidates and those who have been mentioned in connection with the position has adopted the plan of sending for certain prominent citi- zens of the District and conversing with them upon District affairs, In this way he has an opportunity of personally meeting those of whom, perhaps, he has only heard from others, and of hearing their individual views upon lo- cal affairs. In no instance has he in- timated who he intended to select, nor has he asked generally as to specific can- didates, but has apparently sought to learn the views of his callers upon the present District administration, where it has been defective, and what changes could be made which would better satisfy t! ntire community. 2. Wilson was at the White House and had quite an interview with the President. When asked by aSran reporter what was the mature of their conversation Mr. Wiison declined to speak, saying that he hid simply made a call upon the President with- out any object whatever, save that of making his acquaintance. ‘But vou did talk of District affairs.” sug- gested the reporter. “Incidentally they were mentioned,” was the reply. anything said about the appointment of Commissioners?” asked the reporter. “There was no intimation in regard to their selection or when they would be a1 grey a,” said Mr. Wilson. “The only remark of the President was that he wished to gst good men for the positions,’ INCREASED WATER SUPPLY.
