James M. McAfee, a clerk in the pension office,residing at Vienna, Va., | was thrown from a train at the south end of the Long bridge and so badly injured that he died during the afternoon. Col. McAfee and his 1 daughter were on the train coming to the city,and when the train reached a point near the bridge the colonel walked from the | smoking car to go to the adjoining coach, where is wife and danghter were, and it was in this| that he was hurled from the train and | killed. The train was ruaning at a high rate of | speed when it struck the curve, and Col. Mc- Afee was thrown such a distance that he struck against the porch of a saloon by the rondsi breaking some of the timbers. His wife and danghter were unaware of what had happened until they reached the city, and then they took the ontgoing train and went to. Alexandria. ‘The badly injured man was taken on the train to the Alexandria Infirmary, where the phyei cians found a fracture of the base of the bain and paralysis resulting from an injury to the | spine. He died at 2:30 o'clock without having regained consciousness. the deceased was fifty-five years old and a prominent member of the G.A.R. He was appointed toa clerkship in the pension office | from Kansas two years ago and was soon after- ward promoted to the $1,200 class. He leaves a wife and four children, eee THE JAIL OVERCROWDED. ‘There is @ Great Need for Many More Cells There.

Hollinberger Says That the Contrac- tor Failed to Put on More Teams. In conversation with a reporter of Tux Stam this morning Lieut. Hollinberger, in charge of the removal of garbage, stated that owing to the failure of Garbage Contractor Clark to put on additional teams during encampment week a considerable amount of garbage had accumn- | Saturday the High School building and the | lated throughout the city and complaints had increased accordingly during the past five days. The lieutonant stated that Contractor Clark in- stead of providing him with additional teams during encampment week to meet the greatly increased requirements of tne occasion had failed to put on a single additional one, and to meet the necessities at Grand Army Place had merely taken teams from other parts of the "7 nave had but thirty-three teams," said the lieutenant, ‘to remove the garbage for a week or | more, although the population of tho city was more than double last week. ‘The result is that on Saturday and today the complaints come in in such numbers as to almost reach the number recorded before I was placed in charge. I have repeatedly requested Mr. Clark to give me more teams, but he has ¢o far failed todo so. So, I this morning made the following report: ‘Four additional teams are needed as follows: One in precinct No 2, one in No. 4, one in No. 5 and one in No.6.’ These teams’ aro needed im- mediately. as there is quite an accumulation of garbage, there being sixty complaints on Sat- urday. The health officer, Hammett, shou'd hire these teamsat once and charge them to the contractor, as he, Mr. Clark, has been promising ever since Friday to put on extra teams, but has failed to do so.’ ” An ‘inspection of the records of Lieut. Hol- linberger today showed that up to 11 o'clock this morning forty-eight complaints had been received and it was expected that those re- ceived in the afternoon mail would double that number, es ANACOSTIA.
