Blood flowed, “police” was yelled and injured honor was avenged. ‘The incident raised a riot and awakened | the neighborhood. An anonymous letter writer came to grief and che irate lover came out on top. It is the talk of certain circles today, and strenuous efforts have | been made to keep the story under cover. ‘The victor {s an attorney, who has room: in the McGill building, and the victim of the affair resides on 5th street and is well known. Some time ago an estimable young lady, who lives on H street and who is registered as a teacher and on whom it Is said the at- torney has lavished such of iis ume, re- ceived a letter which was uot couched in terms as select as thove contained in the average correspondence of the young 'acv, No attention was paid to it. It grieved the family and there was some ‘alk of notifying the police or asking the assistance of the Post office inspectors, but ua anything of this kind would have involved publicity all {hought of pursult, revenge, &c., was cban- joned. ‘The friends of the insulted girl hoped that the objectionable letter would be the last, and did not think that it was to be merely the overture to a serfes. Such it was. Mat- ters went from bad to worse. Yesterday morning the lady received a neat looking epistle, richly scented with sachet powder, and sealed with a crest, stating that the writer was aware that the addressee was engaged; that he was married; that his wife was absent; that he was deeply “stuck” on the lady to whom he wrote; that he was frenzied with love for her; that he wanted to meet her; that he knew her well; that she knew him, &c., ed _T. V. Jones, which wasn't his name, by the way. ‘This bomb in the family camp heated the air and made things lurid. Mr. Jones re- Quested that his Juliet “drop him an ang: Wer at once to general delivery, city. The attorney was apprised of what the last mail had brought and wanted the of- fender taken in for violating section 333 of the postal regulations. What act wi taken in the matter by. the Post Office Department cannot now be learned. It is not thought though by those who ought to know that a case could be made out against the offender. By direction of the attorney the injured girl wrote to Mr. Jones, telling him how pleased she was with his proposal: that she felt honored by his invitation; that she would accept and at 8 last night she would meet him at the corner of sth and H wie young lady at th hour went e young lady at the proper hour in the direction of the rendezvous. Mr. Attorney and his clerk followed at some distance. The girl's aunt and a male at- tendant entered a catriage and drove along to the place of mobilization. The expect- ant Romeo was on deck. He was rigged up in his Sunday clothes, carried a cane, wore a buttonhole boquet. He was so glad to meet her. He extended his hand and it was a fine evening. She “Are you the gentleman whom Iam to meet?” “Yes,” said he. “What g Joke this ts on my, old woman. T knew you were up to snuff.”” The pair started to stroll, when the attor- ney overhauled Mr. Jones and struck from the shoulder. He fell. The avenger upper and undercut his man, countered with both feet and led straight from the shoulder. The heroine was taken into the carriage, and is said to have swooned. Mr. Jones was recog- nized. Jones wanted the police, and asked for protection in such double jones that the officers wete wending their way thitherward. The avenger called off the dogs of war, and quiet reigned. Today the at is all right, save a badly swollen hai it is not thought likely that the Post Office Department will have anything fur- ther to do with the case. IMPROVEMENT. im New York From the Savings Bank Standpoint. NEW YORK, Aug. 26.—It is now almost @ month since the organizations of savings banks in New York and Brooklyn decided to avail themselves of the right accorded to them by law to insist upon depositors giving notice of their intention to withdraw deposits. The thirty-day notice was the one generally adopted, although a few of the banks made the limit sixty days. People who thought they could not live a moment after thirty days without drawing their money take an entirely different view of the situation now and there Is not a sav- ings bank in either city but has received numerous letters recalling the notices of withdrawal. The time limit has prevented all trouble and now the banks are ready to meet their customers. The general state- bent is that the deposits are increasing daily and that with a week or two of im- provement in the financial condition every- thing will be in good shape again. —_——- A Diplomatte Hitch. LONDON, August 26.—Further telegrams received today from Bangkok confirm the dis- patches of yesterday, ehowing that a hitch has occurred in the negotiotions for a settlement of the question between France and Siam. To- day's dispatches state that Siam is willing and anxious to accede promptly to the terms of the French ultimatum, but that M. Le Myre de Vilers, the special French envoy. is trying to override the terms of the ultimatum which | wereaccepted bythe Siamese government as the settlement of the dispute. ‘The dispatches add tbat four French war ships have carried out a demonstration before Koh Samet, on the gulf of Siam. pe SOON A Schooner’s Catch of Seals.

Special Dispatch to the Evening Star. NEW YORK, Aug. 26.—The financial situ- ation remains unchanged, and the brighter Prospects which have lately affected prices so favorably continue to exert a good in- fluence over the course of the market. The Prediction that the banks would make a Bood showing in today's statement was verified even beyond the hopes of the most sanguine, who had figured the increase in reserve at two and a half or three million. On the prospects of this improvement in the condition of the associated banks and the indication, amounting almost to @ positive assurance, that the House will repeal the silver bill on Monday, prices have been advanced and speculation en- couraged. The banks having done justice to their share of the responsibility’ the burden of continuing the longed for improvemen: Row rests with Congress. Should the bill be repealed in the lower house the effect on prices should be immedi- ately felt not only because It will be re- garded as foreshadowing the desired relief, but Because of the effect it will have in demonstrating to the Senate the desirabil- ity of a speedy concurrence in such action. ‘esterday's steamers brought in $2,300,000 gold, which reduces our net exports for the Year to $22,500,000. The banks have gained @ trifle over $3,250,000 in lawful money, as shown in the reserve, not including the above arrival of gold.’ The deposits show no change to speak of as compared with last week, a decrease in that item owing to @ reduction of about $3,000,000 in loans is offset by the gain “in cash. The deficit in reserve is now about $6,750,000. A summary of the statement follows: Re- Serve increased $5,308,125, loans decreased $2,932,800); specie increased $4,579,1 legals tn- creased ‘$774,400; deposits decreased $117,500, and circulation ‘increased $1,042,000. The market opened up from i-4 to 1 1-4 per cent, and continued strong and fairly active until after the announcement of the bank statement. when it reacted from the best figures of the day. Among the stocks that improved: most were Lake Shore, which advanced to 117 1-2, a gain of 2 1-4 per cent. Lackawanna gain- ed @ point to 135. Consolidated Gas advanc- ed on two quotations to 119, an improve- ment of two points from yesterday's clos- ing, and Manhattan opened up 1 per cent at 113 and was strong at that figure. ‘The industrals were strong and active, but their gains were only fractional, and the closing was in the neighborhood of last night's bid prices, z ‘The clearing house statement reports ex- changes, $9,777,813; balances, $2,896,720. and the subtreasury’s ‘debit balance, $2,072. The week closes very satisfactorily and indications point to a steady and healthy growth in the course of speculation that will eventually result in higher prices and @ return of confidence. The ‘thirty-day Umit required by the savings banks will expire next week and considerable interest is manifested as to the result. It is not likely that any trouble will arise as many who have given notice wili not take advantage of the opportunity to with- draw thelr deposits. The improvement in the bond market still continues and foreign houses are dally in recetpt of cables from Europe making in- quiries after the better class of invest- ments.

(Continued from First page.) THE GREAT not agree with the gentleman from Maine that such recurring panics were inseperable from the progress oc we human race. He did not join ih the tone of levity in whicn the political platform of the democratic rty had been treated. He believed that a leclaration of political faith was binding on @ party. And he stood here today opposed to the measures of free coinage, he stood on the democratic platform with both his teet, while he, who proposed such an act, was trying to'push him off it. He had as- sented to the deliberations of the demo- cratic convention (ironical laughter from the republicans) and had had a good oppor- tunity to discover with what vigor it had put its feet on anyone who undertook to interfere with the free course of its oper- ations. And ‘he remembered that when the finan- cial part of the platform was read, a deie- gate from Colorado proposed, as un amend- Ment, the insertion of the word “free” be- fore the word “coinage,” and had support- ed it in a speech. But it did not poll ten votes when the ‘convention took action upon it. “Talk to me,” Mr. Cochran said, “about the democratic party having de- clared for free coinage! 1 believe that, the claim for free coinage came from Colo- rado and Nevada. But why did Colorado and Nevada take to the woods during the election of 1892? (Laughter). Why did they turn their backs upon both parties und en- list in the populist branch? I stand by the democratic piatform, which declares for the “use” of silver, and I believe in it. As to bimetallism in’ the United States “and in France, there never has been bimetallism in the sense argued for. Mr. Cockran quoted trom Locke and Mills to show that both gold and silver cannot in the same country, because the measure of value must be perpetual and invariable. France was practically on a gold basis, and the United States must do what France had done—close her mints to the free coin- age of silver—in order to maintain the value and parity of silver. (Applause.) Both gold and silver fluctuated in value. ‘The advocates of the Wilson bill wanted the metal with the minimum of fluctua- Mon; its opponents wanted the metal that had ‘the maximum fluctuation. (Applause.) The silver men wanted to give the farmers Si 1-4 grains of pure silver. He wanted to give them 65 1-4 grains, because he knew that 6 1-4 grains would enable them to buy a dollar's worth of anything in any part of the world. He believed in interna- tional bimetallism. On economic ques- tions there should be no party lines. hen the economic laws were laid down as clear- ly as they had been laid down by the gentle- man irom Maine (Mr. Reed), they should be accepted, not only by this House, not only by this country, but by the whole world. GOOD SPORT PROMISED On the Marshes Along the River After September 1. Next Friday morning at break of day the marshes of the Potomac and Anacostia rivers will be visited by scores of gunners, as the Ist of September opens the fall gun- | ning season in this vicinity. Reed birds ortolan and blackbirds will be killed by the hundred, no matter what kind of weather there happens to be. The ot! thing that will prevent good sport in the killing of the birds will be their absence. But such is hardly lkely to be the case, as @ number of these kind of birds have al- ready been killed, Bennings bridge is the principal starting place for the gunners, for there they cai Rot only get boats, but George Miler, wh keeps the road house there, is always able to give the gunners information as to the best place to go and what to do in order to bag the most game.

Msiee Ses i Strangers in Search of a Drink in South | Carolina. Despite the Tillman Liquor Law—The Warpath—Rice a Ginger Ale. Posse on ti Beer Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. CHARLESTON, 8. C., August 2, 1893. “The Adventures of a Thirsty Man in Search of a Drink in Charleston” should be the title of this communication, which is intended as a note of warning, or a friend- ly guide post on a dusty highway, or a hor- Tible example, as the case may be, to others who come after me. The Star reporter came to Charleston the other day. It was | Sunday and it was hot. Two men in the hotel were talking, and one of them said he would like to have a drink, but it would be impossible to get it in Charleston. impossible?” asked the first ian. “Absolutely,” replied the other. “No one 4s allowed to ‘drink in Charleston unless he | drinks what Gov. Tillman prescribes and in the way he requires. ‘When The Star man heard this he im- | Mediately became seized with a desire for | @ drink. Not on account of the intrinsic | merits of the drink itself, but simply De- | cause somebody said that he should not have it. It was just this way: The Star re- | | porter possessed the price of the drink, he | | knew that somebody else owned the drink | and would doubtless like to make the mer- cantile transaction of exchanging the drink | for the money, and yet there was a maa, a | stranger to me and to the owner of the drink, who dared to step in and endeavor to blockade our commerce. I determined I would not stand it. Having thus resolved not to be balked in | the peaceful pursuit of trade and the exer- | cise of a right guaranteed by the Constitu- j tion, I proceeded to hunt up the other Party to the commercial transaction. I did Rot then realize my rashness or the alfm- culties that lay before me. ‘ust then I saw the colored porter of the hotel and asked him to show me the buffet. Poe ee 1 “The buffet, I want_to get a driak.” “Oh, you wants a drink.” “TI what I said.” “Excuse me, suh, I don’t means to be {mpudent, but whur did you come from, I assured him that neither my nativity, Face or previous condition of sevitude had any pearing upon the point at issue. i ell, I just wondered,” he replied, “whur | you come from dat you didn’t know befo’ | you got hyah dat you cyarn’t git a drink in Charleston.” Then he looked at me with mild pity in his eyes, commisseration for my Youth and ignorance and went his way. Then I stood on the sidewalk and looked up and down the hot and sunny street, with the desire for a drink growing hotter and more consuming. As I stood thus ponder- Ing there came into my’ mind that’ classi Mttle ode: sb suai sd “If you want to get a drink in Kansas, If you want to get a drink in If you want to get a d-r-i-n-k, Give a democrat the w-i-n-k, And you'll surely get a drink in Kansas.” The intimation conveyed by this ditty Seemed to point a way out of the difficulty, The plan of procedure ought to hold good in South Carolina as well as in Kansas, there being a great many points of simi- larity between the two states. They are pushing each other hard for place ut the top of the freak column of ‘states. And then it would seem to be easier to find a democrat in South Carolina than in Kansas. In fact, you could not throw a stick in Charleston without hitting a democrat. I mentally resolved that I would appeal to a democrat for a pointer. I saw a@ man standing on the corner. By his dress he appeared to be a southerner and as he was a white man I knew he was @ democrat. I apologized to him for break- ing in upon his reverie and then told him that I was a stranger in a strange land, without friends, but with plenty ‘of money: that I wanted ‘a drink and did not know | where to get it. Would he save my fair | young life from perishing x showing me | | the way, for, as thirsteth the heart after the water brook so did long my soul for that drink, or words to that effect. wie looked at me a moment and then said: ell, I guess you must be pretty nigh as thirsty as I am, and if that’s so you are in *inansver ¢ look of inquiry hi In ans ‘r to my look of inquiry he con- tinued, “I am from Buncombe county, No'th Cyarlina, and I have been accus- tomed, sub, to ‘having my toddy whenever I want it. ‘Why, sub, I've got half an acre of the finest mint yo’ evah saw growit along the branch below the big spring, an’ there is no trouble, suh, in getting good Nauor in Buncombe county. 1° struck this own last night, an ven't got a drink yet.

The groan at least was sincere. I had felgned wanting a drink for so long that at last I had come to really believe that I did want one, and I groaned for it. for my friend “Some brandy, quick, hyah,” said my ally to the druggist. “He isa sick man.” I groaned again. ‘The druggist looked at me calmly, ana I thought coldly. “How would some Jamaica ginger do?” asked the druggist. “No, suh, give him some brandy quick fo’ the love of heaven,” and he flung a dollar down on the counter. ‘The druggist shook his head. camphor and peppermint?” he ® suh.

The gentleman from Buncombe | county looked at the empty sideboard with an anguished countenance, “Haven't you anything to drink?” he asked the attend- ant in a hollow voice. yes, plenty of rice beer.” liquor?” “Oh, no,” said the attendant, horrified at the very idea. We retired into @ corner of the room and held a whispered consultation. It was ex- plained to the gentleman from Buncombe county, No’th lina, that rice beer is a pleasant b-ew, the alleged chief com- ponent being rice, and possessing just sufficient amount of alcohol as to place it outside of the lst of alcoholic drinks and the ban of Gov. Tillman. It was suggested to the gentleman from Buncombe, whose disappointment was something painful, that maybe some brands of rice beer ‘were stronger than others. We finally concluded to try the rice beer. It was good beer, and after the entente cordiale, as we say in the State Depart- ment, had been established between the dispenser and ourselves it seemed to grow face and he He was per- | Signed to life every moment, it was no- better and to be more beery and less ricey.
