A sad accident occurred yesterday afternoon on the*river above the Aqueduct bridge, re- sulting in the drowning of Samuel Graff, After the occurrence one of the compan- ions of the unfortunate young man stated to a Srar reporter that Graff was fishing on the Hen and Chickens, near the Potomac club landing on the Maryland shore, in company with three friends. They had started at 8:30 in the morning for a day’s sport, but after the storm came up they concluded that their posi- tion was rather precarious, and decided to go ashore to continue their angling. There was but one boat, a skiff, holding two, and the operation of getting off the rocks was rather ditticult. Gratf volunteered to do the “tees and took the others one by one to the 7- land shore. He had taken two over and was on his last trip with the third one when, by an unexpected, quick, treacherous movement of the boat it was so far careened as to throw Graff into the water, while his companion suc- ceeded in retaining his seat. Unfortunately Graff carried the paddle with him, and thus the other was left without means to help him. He threw him a fishmg line, all there was at hand, but the young man sank. The skiff floated ashore, and soon afterward a search was made for the body without success. Although the river was dragged last evening the body was not found. Graff lived at 913 H street northwest. Up to a late hour to-day his body had not been recovered, although every pos- sible effort is being made to that end. greiner wan Five Years in Albany Penitentiary. In the Criminal Court, Judge Bradley, to- day, a colored man named Charles Jones was convicted of robbing and sentenced for five years in the Albany County penitentiary. The prosecuting witness was John Wiley, who tes- titied that May 2 he was knocked down, three persons being in the attacking party, and was robbed of a pocketbook with upward of $20 in it. Several other witnesses corroborated him, but Jones denied his guilt. At Washington Grove. ANNUAL MEETING OF THE STOCKHOLDERS—ELEC- TION OF OFFICERS, ETC. The stockholders of the Washington Grove association held their annnal meeting in the tabernacle at the grove at noon yesterday, President Woodward in the chair, with Mr. About 125 stockholders were present, After the calling of the roll the question was asked by Mr. J. T. Mitchell why his name did not appear, He was told by the secretay that he was no longer an owner of stock. Mr. Mitchell claimed that he was, and cited the fact that he had lately been assessed for stock; thathe paid said assessment and held the receipt. A breezy discnssion then ensued between Mr. Simpson and Mr. Mitchell, which looked seri. ous for atime. The trouble was obviated by a resolution, offered by Mr. Platt, that a com- mittee of three be appointed to investigate, and the chair selected Mr. Gee, Dr. Winter, and Mr. J. Wilson as the committee. TRUSTEES ELECTED. After a brief recess the meeting proceeded tothe election of the twen' ve trustees to serve for the ensuing year. The following were elected. J. C.

Barker was held at the first pre- cinct police station yesterday, having been ar- yested on a warrant charging him with false pretenses. Mr. Richard R. MeMahon, deputy controller of the currency. appeared as prose- cuting witness, He charged that he loaned Barker #10 and received an alleged worthless cheek for that amount on the Commercial na- tional bank of Omaha. Mr. McMahon stated that he did not desire to have the defendant punished and said that the case would be set- Ued out of court. This morning in the Police Court the warrant was tolle prossed. > He Was Not Murdered. Inspector Swindells, of the detective corps, has received a letter from the chief of police of Altoona, Pa., stating that Jesse Liggins, colored, is employed in the Globe hotel in that city. Liggins 1 the negro who was reported by his sister, Mary Brogue. to have been mur- dered im thix city some days ago. The police now think that the woman's statement was the result of a dream or hallucination. Objected to Mr. Shaflicld’s Chickens. Mr. John A. Shaftield was in the Police Court to-day because he is the owner of six hens, a rooster, some pigeons and a dog. He lives at No. 212 F street, and Mr. Albert Shaw, a de- partment clerk, is his next door neighbor. Everytime one of the hens lays an egg she cackles to inform the public of that fact. The rooster is the early riser and frequently awakens Mr. Shaw at break of day. These foul demonstratious were objected to by Mr. Shaw, and it was on his complaint that Mr. Shaftield was charged with keeping cackling hens and crowing roosters to annoyance of his neighbors and in violation of the police regula- tions. Mr. Shattield promised to dispose of the chickens and the court took his personal bonds. saat vs .

A. trustees from twenty-five to nine. The resolu- tion was adopted. D. M. Peck, H. B. Moulton, and Mr. Ireland were appointed as the com- mittee. The committee appointed to investigate Mr. Mitchell's claim reported that in the absence of any documentary evidence it was unable to make a satisfactory report, and recommended that Mr. Mitchell be recognized as a stockholder at this meeting. This was agreed to. ELECTION OF OFFICERS, Balloting for president, vice-president, seere- tary and treasurer was then in order.
