Arrivals and Departures Along the Line of the Canal. IN SHORT PARAGRAPHS. At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon in one of the rooms of the ninth precinct Squire Birch of Rosslyn, Va., examined informal- ly eight persons who live in the neighbor- hood of the home of Richard, alias Dick, Burgess, the man now confined in the Alexandria county jail charged with the murder of the old Connecticut soldier, Swift. The squire was assisted in his examina- tion by Sheriff Veitch and Lawyer Dou; lass. The questioned ones were not sworn, and their remarks were perhaps a little more rambling than they would have been had the old custom been observed. ‘Ilie main object of the hearing was to find out as far as possible the whereabouts of Bur- gess on the day of the murder and to de- termine whether or not he owned the coat that was found near the body, with the Dockets filled with'a whetstone, mouth or- gan, brace and various other articles. It Was apparent from the first, though, that all the parties were friends of Burgess. Nothing of a convicting nature was inten- tionally said, although some of the ttate- ments were contradictory. Among those examined were Mrs. W. H. Holt, Mrs. Charles Frizzell, Chas. Frizzell, Mrz. Bui eas, wife of the alleged murderr, Mra. joseph , Mrs. Royce, Augustus, al “Old Man," Koyee and the mother of Mrs. Burgess. " All denied that Surgess had ever owned the coat found near the scene, t Frizzell stated that the whetstone found in the pockets had been given J3ur- gess by him. testified that Burgess was seen by them at his home at sundown on the day of the murder. ‘Mrs. Burgess when asked whether or not her husband had been confined in the pen- itentiary for two years said he had not, though on cross-examination admitted that he was away from home for about that period. She did not, know, however, why he remained away. Tomorrow at the resi- dence of Squire Birch in Virginia Burgess wil! be given a hearing. Canal Affairs. Boats arrived at Georgetown yesterday via canal with coal as follows: C. M. Miller, Capt. Riley, 9 tons; Consolidation No. 19, Capt. Jas. Reed, 108 tons; W. H. Dunkinson, Capt. Jas.

He lives with his parents at 431 M street northwest. ‘Two days ago he conceived the idea of mak- ing a start in the world for himself, al- though only fifteen years old. He left home without even saying good-bye. The police were told of his disappearance, but his description was put on file with so many other papers that he was almost forgotten, when a boy was arrested yesterday on sus- picion. This boy was attempting to dispose of a pair of opera glasses at a pawnshop. When he reached police headquarters he had a story to tell; both as to himeelf and the glasses. Frank Bo ‘was the name he gave, and he declared that he had never attended school a day in his life, although he could read and write. His own life had been a particularly sad one, according to his story. He had lived on a farm in Vir- ginia twenty miles west of Mount Vernon, and had never been off the farm until after the death of his parents, and then he moved toa Dlace near Brookland. Incidentally he gave the names of country doctors and undertakers who had attended and buried his its. They were buried in Glen- wood, so he told the oMicers. As ‘an orphan boy he had started out with an older brother who had gone to Baltimore, but was to have returned yester- and in the meanwhile he was to have the opera glasses and then remained ‘at the depot to meet his brother. A rigid cross-exarmination of the boy failed to make one change in his story, and it was not un- til the cemetery records failed to show the name of Bergman that the officers knew the boy was telling what was not so. He was then sent to the police station, and shortly afterward Clerk Gorman dis- co" that the description of Henry Jones was identical with that of Bergman, and the boy’s father was sent for. The father and son met in the detectives office, but not a word passed between them, eating t thor it he was 014 enough to look after himself a ate TO COMPLETE THE ROAD. The Drum Point Railroad Company Reorganized. The stockholders of the Drum Point Rail- road Company yesterday held in Baltimore their first meeting since the reorganization of the company. Mr. John C.

Since the decision of the Supreme Court declaring that previous service in the army or navy was not a necessary qualification for applicants for positions in the police department, the appointments have been confined principally to citizens of Washing- ton, most of whom have had no military experience or discipline. To this is attrib- uted the fact that many of them fail to present the appearance on the street that is desired. To cure defects due to lack of military training and in order to have the men perform better service in case of emergency, Maj. Moore is soon to re-estab- lish the custom of having monthly or semi- monthly drills at the various stafions. For this purpose only a small portion of the time of the officer will be consumed and the officials are sure of beneficial results. ‘The drilling will not be commenced until there is a permanent change in the weather. As heretofore mentioned in The Star the Relice pension fund is in a bad way and }, Moore will ask Congress for relief. It is possible that the bill to be prepared by direction of the chief will contain an amount large enough to increase the num- ber of pensioners and in event of its be- coming a law several of the older officers and perhaps two or three lieutenants will be put on the list. Now that Uncle Sam's pension list is being revised it is Hicely that similar action will be taken im regard to the police pensions. ‘The new police surgeons have now form-'| ally organized and are ready for duty. Among those to be examined are several applicants who failed to pass under the old board; One man has made application for examination after havin, “turned down” four times. In such cases a special order for re-examination will be necessary hereafter and unless the candidate makes a good showing another opportunity to Pass will not be afforded. In his effort to ascertain the present whereabouts of the Guiteau pistol Chief Clerk Sylvester has received a letter from Huntsville, Ala., in which it is stated that the pistol is heid by a citizen of that place, who has ample proofs of the identity of the weapon. The police of the first and third precincts are loud in their praises of Supt. Stevens and the free bathing beach and they think the superintendent should receive the thanks of the community for his efforts to make the place a success. Lieut. Amiss, speaking of the beach, mentioned the fact that the latest improve- ment to the beach had done much good in rendering it safe. This season, he said, has been very successful in every respect, and Thursdays (ladies’ day) are very popu- r. Poker players are in a peck of trouble just_ now, especially those who operated down town. The officers of the first pre- cinct have made a number of raids lately and the Police Court sustained the officers in nearly every case. A few days ago the roprietor of a down- town hotel stopped Lieut. Amiss on the street and asked what would be done in case guests played poker in his house, Knowing the nature of the game he wi told that a court case of that kind would y| operate against his chances for getting a license and he concluded not to take the ak. Night Inspector Pearson and the men are generally surprised when he appears. He does not blow a whistle when he appears on a beat, but if the officer is on his feet the inspector usually finds him.

Correspondence of The Evening Star. CAMP MOSHER, HARPER'S FERRY, W. Va., August 8 1698. After another night in which the tempera- ture went down almost to freezing point, as it seemed to the soldier boys shivering un- der a heavy blanket and an overcoat (the actual temperature as registered by the camp thermometer was 57.75 degrees at 4 a. m. ), reveille with its “can’t git ‘em up, can’t git "em up,” brought the boys out at 6 this morning. Twenty minutes later assem- bly for roll call sounded, and the morning drill began five minutes afterward. The company had considerable fun out of Lieut. Middleton Gust lately elected and ap- Pointed second lieutenant), who had charge of the drill for a short time. The lieutenant is well up on the manual, but has had no experience as commander; and when his rich, sonorous voice would ring out an un- heard of command, or one impossible to ecute at the time’ it was given, the gould not realst a very audible smile, Hi however, very good humored, and took it all in good part. Mess call for breakfast sounded at 7:30, and at 8 the guard was mounted. At 6:30 assembly of details for engineering work “Capt, Ireland took Mai pt. Irel took a squad up on Mary- jand Helghts for signaling to the camp with heliographs, and his success was all that could be desired. Several messages were sent and received both ways readily, It seems that Sergt. Dennison got the first chance at the lunch the squad had carried with them, and one of the messages from the rest of the squad requested the prepera- tion of a big supply of dinner. Capt. Ire- land released a couple of pigeons this morning and a couple more this afternoon. One of those released yesterday reached Washington in fifty-five minutes. The thir- ty pigeons which were sent up here yester- day and carried by were carried back to Washington and will come up tomorrow. Lieut. Middleton’s squad constructed an- other gabion today, and it is quite an im- provement over the one of yesterday. To- a juad are crowing a good deal over that of yesterday in uence. The other tents for the officers and board of vis- itors, who are expected up in a day or two, Were pitched. ‘The flag pole was not lay. Corp. Steward continued his observations and preparations for his experiments in Photographic surveying.It will probably be @ day or two before he will actually begin the work. A Practice Telegraph Lin Private Freeman constructed a practice telegraph line from his tent to that of Pri- vate Colt, but lack of time prevented his getting the field telegraph to work. He has 4 sufficient number of cells to overcome the resistance of almost a mile of wire. Capt. Averill, with his detail and the Cor- ccran Scientific School students, continued the railroad engineering work. The preliml- Rary line was begun and plotted for almost halt of the distance contemplated. Corp. Stevens is suffering with fever biis- ters as a result of excessive attention, not to the ladies, but to his bugle. It is hoped he. will recover soon. However, Private Rolles is his substitute, and makes a good one, too. It may appear from the evidence just sub- mitted that the schedule for the camp Is one of unremitting work, but that is not exactly right. A fair amount of time is given to rest and recreation. As examples of the way the boys enjoy themselves, a party of them, with some of the pretty girls, of course, made an excursion this morning across the Shenandoah after peaches. They managed to obtain a couple of knapsacks of fine-looking peaches, but, oh, my! they were so hard. A tennis ground has been laid out and {s ‘patronized considerably. Mess call for supper was sounded a little early today, at 5:3), and after supper the boys kept a base ball hustling until assembly call for parade drill was sounded. ‘The company makes a fine appearance in White. duck pantaloons and sre getting very proficient in the manual. During the dril while at “rest.” a company meeting was held, and Dr. J. B. Rutherford elected into the company. He is a guest of the Summit House, who has been watching the compe: ny’s work, and desired to become a mem- ber. He will be enlisted soon, his uniform sent for by carrier pigeons, and no doubt he Will be pacing a beat as sentinel in a fe ays. Another variation of the drill was the pro- motion of Corp. G. V. Chandler to a ser- geantcy and Private J. 8. Johnson to a cor- poralcy. This fs the result of a competitive examination in milftary engineeringand drill Fegulations. which has been in p for Some weeks past. . Chandler passed a Men exammation, and also om account of his faithful and efficient work in the corm- pany, Well deserves his promotion. | His lends hope and expect that further hon- ors await him. The Summit House reveled in a splendid entertainment tonight, which lasted for nearly two hours. It was largely a musical affair, and in the main the numbers were finely’ rendered. Our own Lieut. Middleton fairly charmed the audience with his melo- dy and was accorded handsome applause. ‘The entertainment was in the large hall of fhe college, and Its capacity was fully ested. In the report of the hop at the Hilltop House last Saturday night an error crept in, and tt ts only justice to the five la: guests of the Hilltop, who hired the pavii- fon, arranged for the hop and made {t the success it was, to correct the impression Which the report gave that the Hilltop House gave the hop.

He has been confined to his house for several 3 with an attack of bilious fever. ‘esterday morning his condition became worse, his wife left the house to cure some medicine. In her absence it is believed Finn became delirious. He jump- ed from his bed, and selzing a heavy flat- iron attempted to dash out the brains of his two little boys. He then grasped a carving knife and horribly cut and man- gied his two little daughters. Believing that he had killed the four little children, Finn drew the blade across his throat, in- flicting @ wound from which his death is expected. The tnjuries to the children are of such a nature that they will die. —_— +02 —____ Cooked by Molten Metal. ‘There was a horrible accident in the con- Yerting department of the Bessemer steel works at Cleveland yesterday morni ing, and five men were terribly burned and cooked by molten metal.
