One clippmg was a reprint of an article from the Popular Science Monthly, written by Dr. Charles W. Pilgrim. It was entitled ““Genius and Suicide.” Another was @ story on “Study for Sociolo- gists,”’ written by Ciifford Howard. On the coat of the deceased was pinned s tag on which was written, “Police—to the morgue,” and it was evidently put there by the deceased. Superintendent Schoneberger prepared the body for burial and notified the coroner of the affair. a A JACKSONIAN DEMOCRAT. Judge Patton, Who Visited Washington Sixty-Four Years Ago. One of the most interesting visitors in the city is Judge Eenjamin Patton of Hicksville, Ohio, who arrived this morning and is quar- tered at Willard’s. Judge Patton is eighty-four years of age, having been born at Bellefonte, Pa., July 21, 1809, He isa Jacksonian democrat and saw the hero of New Orleans inaugurated. He is yet mentally vigorous, thongh his eyesight is failing and his hearing is impaired. He walks with crutches,and this morning was | attended by his grandnephew, Thomas M. Rey- | nolds of this city. He is thoroughly a gentle- | man of the old school, still wearing the high | days. Judge Patton isa delightful talker and is filled with historical and interesting remi- niscences. Little did I think,” he enid to Tar Sran rop- resentative this morning,“‘when, sixty-four years ago, I stood on the east portico of the Capitol that I would be here this lovely spring morning. “I have seen Presidents Jackson, Polk, Cleve- land and Harrison inaugurated. 1 look forward to the ceremonies of next Saturday with peculiar interest. Perhaps it will be my fortune to see the next inauguration, too, I journeyed from Carlisle, Pa., in 1829 to see Gen. Jackson inaugurated, coming to the capital by stage coach. I stopped at this hotel, which was then the old Mansion House. As I said, I ‘was on tho east portico of the Capitol when Jack- son delivered his inaugural address, but, if the trath must be told, my attention was so occu- ied in admiring a beautiful Baltimore giri that ie ve slight heed to the President's words, “Gen Jackson walked from Gadsby's Hotel, tow the National, to the Capitol, accompanied by several friends prominentat the time. There was no especial demonstration. I remember that he was bareheaded part of the way. “Gen. Jackson was my personal friend and I am now proud to say that I enjoyed his esteem jonally and. officially. He eppointed ime United States district attorney for the western district of Pennsylvania when I was but twenty- three years of age. I held the position for six years. I was ia the reading room of the hotel the day the appoint ment was announced. An elderly gentleman approached meand said: ‘I understand tho President has appointed a mere boy to the dis- trict attorneyship of Pennsylvania.” I did not reveal myself to him, but replied that while the young man was young I thought he would by tudy and application make up for his lack of rience. have always been a democrat and am probably the énly person now living who held an office under Jackson. At the expiration of my term as district attorney I occupied the bench as the presiding judge of the Pittsburg district for eleven vears and was subsequently clerk of the United States circuit court and United States commissioner at Philadelphia for twelve years.” 1n 1870 I removed to a body of land com- prising 1,000 acres, which now adjoins the city of Hicksville, Ohio, which I entered over forty years ago, and I am now a farrier.” Judge Patton has four children living, one son living in Tennessee and another in Texas. coming from the north of Ireland.

DAVIS MAKES A SPEECH AND MR. DOUGLASS REPLIES, | Itis now Commissioner Parker and ex-Com- | missioner Douglass. The offcial change in | the commissionership of the District of Co- lumbia took place today when Myron ‘M. Parker, in a strong, steady voice, took bis oath to support the Constitution of the United States. It was 1040 when Commis- sioner Douglass, accompanied by his saccessor, arrived at the District building. Mr. Parker divested himeelf of his overcoat, and then Sec- retary Tindall, with a little brass-mounted Bible that has sworn in so many Commission- ers, performed the ceremony which made him one of the District triumvirate. ‘The ceremony took place in Commissioner Ross’ room, and a | number of the clerks gathered sround. Mr. Parker at once took possession of bis desk, and his first action was to send to the | attorney for the District for an opinion on the complaint that certain alleged spiritualists in the city were defrauding the peopie. ‘The news of hie arrival spread throughout the building and soon his office was crowded with clerks anxious to shake hands with their new gov- ernor. BIDDING MR, DOUGLASS GOOD-BYE. At 11 o'clock the assessor of the District, who was chairman of the committee appointed yes- terday by the committes on resolutions, and nearly all of the clerks in the Dis- trict building fled into the board room. where Mr. Dougiass and the Commissioners awaited. Assessor ‘Trimble referred to the meet- ing which was held yesterday afternoon and | inwroduced Mr. E.G. Davis, chairman of the | committee on resolutions. who handed to Com- | missioner Donz.ass a handsomely executed set of resolutions identical with those published in Yesterday's Stan. It was the work of Mr. J. E. Smithers of the assessor's office and was 3 work of art. Mr. Davis said he was deputed to convey an expression of the sorrow the clerks of the Dis- trict government felt at severing their rela- tions with one who had always been their friend. They had attempted to portray in series of “resolutions the sorrow they feltand the prosperity they hoped for his fut “But words in themselves,” he said, “are feeble agents of conveyance in matters of sor- Tow. Words are totally inadequate to portr the feeling of the heart. Three years ago you | came to help govern the District. By your broad and conscientious views, by your earnest and consistent efforts in administering the | affairs of the District, by your cordial and genial nature, your courteous treatment to us all, you “have not onl; friendship und esteem, but vou have entered into the citidal of our ‘hearts, You have our undying friendship. Whatever your path in | the future mav be, wherever your duty and in- clinations call, it is our earnest and sincere wish that your path be strewn with flowers. May all ‘the prosperity that comes to a man who rests from bis labor with a secret con- | sciousness of having done his best come to you. | | But though vou leave us in an official sense we | | trust we shall always have your friendship and | that you will sometimes remember and think | And may we not as good | | citizens come to you in the future and bespeak | of youn kindly word in the interest of the Dis- trict of Columbia, which today shows the evi- dence of your work. Qne and all of us wish you God speed.” ‘MR. DOUGLASS’ REPLY. Mr. Douglass was visibly affected, and choked with tears ashe tried to respond. He said: “Gentlemen, this is not altogether a surprise after reading the evening papers, but I must acknowledge the great pleasure. When I firet came here, nearly four vears since, I knew but few of you personally. I am happy to say, however, that every day's association with you has but the more satisfied mo of your ability and fidelity. In season and out Of season, ‘which I suppote may be inter-| preted in this instance as well after 4 o'clock | as before that hour, you have cheerfully aided | in the work of ‘advancing the | | won our | interests. To me the association has been altogether pleasant and profitable. The kind words of your resolutions and those of the speaker assure me that it has not been unplea: ant to you. ‘One event happeneth unto all,’ in | the language of the good boos, ap: final event in this world, and may without disrespect be applied ’ to the fate of oitice holders in this country. The peovle of Washington have two illustrations of this during the present week. One, the greatest possible in this contingent, to occur on | next Saturday; the other, so’ small by com- | Parison as to hardly deserve mention in th same connection—the change in this office | | today.

As eoon as the meeting was called to order Commissioner Parker nominated Commissioner Ross as presi- | dent of the board, and he was elected and took the seat vacated by Mr. Douglass. Then Capt. Rossell nominated Commissioner Parker as vice president, and he being elected | the board was declared organized, it was | unanimouriy decided that in the distribution | | of duties Mr. Parker succeed to Mr. Ross’ duties and the latter take charge of the departments apportioned to Mr. Dougiass at the organiza- tion of the last board. ‘The new board spent considerable time in discussing the situation, and Commissioner | Parker evinced» lively interest in all matters. eens THE BOND AMENDMENT. If Mr, Carlisle Don’t Need It He Mast Dis- tinctly Say So, The conferees on tho sundry civil civil bill met today and failed to come to an agreement on the bond amendment. The Senate conferees are provoked at the attitude taken in the mat- tor by Mr. Carlisle, They say that largely at | his instance the amendment was put on the bill and that they are not willing to take any indi- | ect verbal assurance that hedoes not now want | it. If ho bas changed his position, they say, he must make @ formal announcement of it to them, or they will regard themselves as bound by their former understanding, and will insist upon the amendment. Thev do not care particularly for the amendment, but they want the responsibility to rest on Mr. Carlile if h desires its abandonment. Their position is that if the amendment is necessary to the in- terests of the government they will stand by it to the last. If the new Secretary of the Treas- Ey eaye 1s inet etcomery seer are willing to abandon it, but they want to speak open; and take the responsibility. rt —_—_—__-o-—______ Record of Deaths.

After three ineffectual attemps to get an ex- ecutive session the republicans were successful | today, the understanding being, however, that nothing of a disputed character should be con- sidered. Accordingiy, when Mr. Sherman made the motion there was no opposition. The session lasted for half an hour, As was intimated in these dispatches a few daysago the effort was made to recon- sider the vote by which the nomination of Mr. John V. L, Findlay of Maryland to be Chilean arbitrator was rejected. The effort was not | * very hearty oue and met with failure. | Mr. Sherman made the motion to reconsider, and in support of that motion introduced va- | rious papers. ‘The republicans looked upon the | matter ax something for the democrats to settle. Mr. Findlay wasa democ-at, and although nomi- | nated br Mr. Harrison, ‘ther said “be was | opposed by the Maryland’ delegation, and they | were willing to let it go at that and permit Mr. | Cleveland to make the selection for the office. The result being apparent, it is said that no formal vote was taken, and the rejection of the nominee was subsequently made »ublic. The tacit agreement regarding <lisputed nominations did not prevent the preliminary steps being taken in the Hanchett nomination. As soon as the executive session began this nomination was referred to the judiciary com- mittee, and before it was over the commit heid s meeting on the floor aud by astrict Party vote reported the uomination favorably. Of course this was ax far as the matter could Proceed today and republicans admit that there is little hove for the confirma- tion of Mr. Hanchett. A number" of naval nominations were con‘irmed, but the names of a number of well-known gentie- men are not upon the list that was given out, Among those missing names is tha: of Lieut. Dupray,nominrted to be paymaster, with the Tank and pay of a major. The nomination ot Dennis ‘f. Kirby to be captain in the army. which was protested against by army officers stationed at Detroit, was alo unacted upon. It issaid that another attempt will be made to hold an executive session for the purpose of clearing up the calendar as quick as possible. GEN. WILLIAMS WILL sTICK. He Will Not Be Ketired to Accommodate Other Officers, The efforts to secure the retirement of Adju- tant General Williams in order that the present administration might select his successor have been abandoned after one of the most persistent fights of the kind in the history of the army. There Were many officers interested in the matter and each of them exerted all the influence at his com- mand. It is said that the President and the Secretary of War were interested in the matter only to the extent of desiring, if possibie, to friends who were canvassing in the interests of one or the other of the candidates. A SATISFACTORY ADMINISTRATION. Gen. Williams’ administration has been per- fectly clean and most efficient in every respect, and the President has conciuded that it would be most unjust to him to place him on the re- tired list a few months in advance of his time. Many of his political friends urged him to do so, and made their appeals with such apparent reason that it required <ome fortitude to resist them. Following the advice of Secre- tary Elkins, however, he tas concluded not to interfere in the case.and Gen. Williams will therefore remain at the head of the adjutant general department until he retires regularly several months hence. THE SECRETARY NOTIN THE MOVE. | The friends of Gen. Williams desire to have it understood that they never believed for a moment the published reports that Secretary Elkins wi yin order to promote ai In the words of one of these: Elkins has proved a good to Gen. Williams all through the fight, and to him as much as to any otuer one man is due the tailure of this intrigue to ousi a most deserving officer. No one knows this better than Gen. Williams, and that he _appre- ciates it goes withont saying. Gen. Williams makes no complaint agsinst those who sought todisplace him, but he wants to record in the most positive manner his gratitude to Secre Elkins for bis honorabia course in the maa inspired, “Secretary d true friend , as it was, solely by pure and disinter- y to ‘the | ested friendship.” Se ALEXANDRIA, (rrr couxctL MEETING. The city council last night heid its regular meeting, each board occupying its own cham- ber. ‘The lower board concurred with the aldermen, who rome weeks ago made an appro- Priation of $1,000 to the King’s Daughters to aid in the erection of the new iding | at the Alexandria Infirmary. The aldermen dopted an order for the purchase of » pa:rol wagon and horse “for the purpose of carrving prisoners to the alms house,” &c, ‘ths phrase- ology was considered defective by the com- mon council and the matter wes referred to be cleared of obscurity. A proposal to use the old gas lamps of the city the intersection where no gas lights exist was cailed up and after consideration the whole subject was ferred to the committee on light, in order that cost of the extra ligbis, the method of lighting and extinguishing mizht be fixed. The report of the committee for tue compulsory estabiisl- ment of fire escapes on cerutin classes of houses was adopted, and_ the corporation attorney was | instructed to bring in an ordinance for that purpose.

Alexandria is catching on to all the Washing- tonmethodsofimprovements.
