NEWS IN SHORT PARAGRAPHS. Swift suspects sem to be as thick in Rosslyn and vicinity as bees.

Just after the arrest had been made and while on the way to the jail at Alexandria, Constable Connell was met by Sergt.

After pass- ing the compliments of the day the ser- geant looked at Clark and said: “Hello, here's the fellow I sold pie and tobacco to at the same time the old soldier Swift was given a free meal ticket.” Before beginning the hearing yestenlay, it was thought advisable to wake the prisoner betore Mrs. Wunder, the lady who on the day and supposed hour of the mur- der saw the apparently fugitive negro going up the Falls Church road. Mrs. Wunder, after scrutinizing Clark, told the officers that in her opinioa the right man had at last been eagsht, as he Was undoubtedly the fellow she hal seen fn such an agitated condition on the roal. At the formal hearing which followed Justice Tonson acted a8 chief and Jusiice Taut hardly more than an ontooker.

Mayor Strauss, who had announced his @etermination to call the elty council to- gether every night during the recess, if need be, until a quorum was obtained to fix a place for the deposit of night soil, ob- tained a quorum last night in both boards. An ordinance was unanimously adopted authorizing the mayor and the committee on public “property to designate a piace either inside or outside of the corporation line where such deposits may be made. ‘The contractor, Mr. Patrick “Dillon, will now pay the bonus of $40, enter into con- tract, give bond, and the shore side on the south bank of the canal under the hill wiil, as already stated in The Star, be selected as the place of deposit. The Democratic Convention Delega- tion.

The proposed comprehensive system of street improvement, although hindered by the lack of current funds and the inability to lay special tax, might still be carried on by @ special loan effected for the purpose, if this should be legal. It happens, how- ever, that when the general assembly many years ago authorized the corporation of Alexandria to compromise its debt on a basis of 3 per cent interest, it enacted that the debt of the corporation should not be increased. The debt, at that time, was a Ittle more than $1,000,000. The debt has now been reduced to about $900,000. The ques- tion is whether the issue, at this time, of $100,900 in city bonds would increase the debt in the sense meant by the act of the legis- Jature. Those who contend that it would not do so urge the issue of the new bonds on the basis of the old ones which have been already redeemed. This question is now being considered by the legal authori- ties and a report on the subject will be made to the city council after the recess. Rallroad Ramors. It ts understood, on the streets, that the railroad employes of the Midland railroad recently dismissed here are to be re-em- ployed at an early day. Two trains have been taken off of the Richmond and Dan- ville road, but that will not, it is said, lessen the number of train hands employed. There is also a rumor that after this month the office of the Midland division: of the Rich- mond and Danville road will be removed to Charlottesville. Noten.

There have been some close calls, but they were not due to any un- reasonable disposition of the steamboat captains. Many accidents are invited by the recklessness of people who devote a Sunday or so in each year to sailing ane are not sufficiently skilled in the manage- ment of a boat. These people evince a strong desire to sail into the swells of steamers. This will often cause the boom to jibe and complications result. It ts not an “uncommon sizht along the river to sce half a dozen small craft sailing so as to approach within danrer distance of a pass- ing steamer to catch her swell. it is on these occasions that the steam- boat pilots have to exercise great skill and tact in order to avoid trouble. It is rarely that the water dogs of sail or steam. ves- sels clash. They know the rules of the road, obey them and seldom come to urief or confusion. It is when the pale-faced land lubber comes down on the Sabbath with a flotilla of eiddy girls in tow, and who valiantly endeavors to show if how little he knows about boats, that the river people lose temper, swear mighty oaths and make awful threats. The steamboat captains know that there is no positive law compelling unregistered craft. to carry lights at night, but believe that for their safety they should do so.
