ABOUT GEORGETOWN. Interment of Mr. Paten, Who Was Killed by a Fall. The Columbias Give a Dance — Real Estate Transactions—Crop Pros- pects and Other Items. ‘The remains of Mr. John Paten, the old gentleman who was thrown from the small bridge that spans Pimmet Run near the Virginia end of the Chain bridge, to the rocks below and killed, through the collid- ing of his dog cart with the country wagon of Mrs. Sarah Mutersbaugh, a neighbor, have been interred at Falls Church. The Teport that Mrs. Mutersbaugh had been ar- rested and confined pending the decision of the coroner’s jury was denied this morning by a resident of her vicinity, who stated that there were sufficient witnesses to the tragic affair to clearly prove that it was purely accidental. Mrs. Mutersbaugh, who has relatives in Georgetown, and Mr. Paten lived on ad- joining farms in Fairfax county. Colambia’s Dance. ‘West End society was largely represented last night at the Columbia boat house, the occasion being a charming dance given un- der the auspices of ten of the club's George- town members.

In Montgomery, Alexandria and Fairfax counties the farmers have finished their corn cutting and will begin this week the seeding of wheat. The ground is said to be in good condition and the weather very favorabte. It's a little early for the seeding of wheat, but the agriculturists fear that the injurious Hessian fly will cause them trouble if they delay it until a warm spell is encountered. The tobacco harvest ts about two-thirds over, late peaches are fairly good and corn is In a poor condition, much of it having been blown down. Short Paragrap!

The city committee, as already reported in The Star, has agreed that who- ever receives a plurality as a nominee of the city primary for delegate to the legislature shall be allowed to appoint the twenty dele- gates which are to meet the five delegates from the county in convention and select a nominee. To this many county democrats object. They say it gives the county no show and compels the county to confirm the action of a plurality of the city demo- crats. They say it is like the feast to which the crane invited the fox, where the food was served in a long-necked bottle so the crane with his long neck could put his bill in the bottle and get his fill, while the fox was compelled to lick whatever flowed on the edges of the bottle. The county demo- crats want something more than a lick at the family feast. Notes. The effects, baskets, wire, bags, &c., at the basket factory at New Alexandria are advertised for sale by the sheriff of Fairfax county; and the sheriff has also an attach- ment against the lessee at the hotel at New Alexandria for goods furnished the hotel by Mr. Isaac Eichberg of this city. ‘The corporation court has heard argument in the Raub-Otterback case and the court has reserved its judgment.

He 1s charged with the larceny of gold watch and chain and $8 from Mrs. Gant of East Capitol street; of the larceny of $3 from a house in Brightwood nd attempted safe robbery at 304 East Capitol street. He frankly admits these and gave information which led to the re- covery of the watch. ——— Death of Mr. Lewis Ford. Mr. Lewis Ford of the firm of Duckett & Ford, real estate brokers of this city, died today at his home in Hyattsville, Mr. Ford Was one of the pioneer residents of that flourishing town, having come there when it was first laid out. He carried on bus- iness here, and hed an acquaintance in both cities. A large circle of friends and acqyaintances will mourn his death. The funeral services will be held tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock at St. Jerome's Church, where requiem high mass will be celebrated. ——_ Taken to Pennsylv: This morning a requisition was received here from Governor Pattison of Pennsyl- vania for Lee L. Schwartz, the commercial traveler, arrested here several days ago on & telegram from the chief of police asking his arrest for forgery. The requisition names David P. Roche of Scranton as the agent of the state, and is based on the complaint of Michael Keogh, charging him as bailee with converting to’ his use a gold watch and pleted chain, valued at $9, stealing and carrying away the same on August 15. When Schwartz was arrested he was taken to the Ist precinct station. On the presentation of the requisition to Justice Cox a warrant was issued and served by the marshal. The prisoner on being taken before the Justice was delivered into the custody of Mr. Roche and left later for Scranton, —_——_—_ Army Orders. Second Lieut. Guy H. B.

Some Leading Questions Asked by Senator Chandler. Messrs. McPherson and Palmer Find Some Difficulty Replying to Them—Silver Men Gratified. Just before the Senate went into execu- tive session yesterday there was a very in- teresting running debate between Teller and Chandler on one hand and McPherson and Palmer on the other. The chief sig- nificance of the situation developed by the debate was the fact that the repeal men, whose purpose is to let the talking be afi done on the silver side, so as to let the onus of delay rest on them, were drawn into an animated discussion, which barred the charge that the stage of filibustering had been reached, and the further fact that Mr. Chandler occupied an entirely inde- pendent attitude in the contest and might be regarded as friendly to the silver men, inasmuch as he took their side of the case in this particular discussion. Mr. Teller occupied the floor, and an ar- gument he presented was that as the gold Was coming back into this country, not- withstanding that the Sherman law had not been repealed, it could not be claimed that the existence of that law had driven the gold out in the first instance. The Deduction Not Warranted. This brought Mr. McPherson to his feet for a question, and he made an argument of about ten minutes to show that this deduction was not warranted. Mr. Palmer then broke in with a question if it was not the declaration of the policy of the admin- istration to redeem treasury notes in gold that had caused the gold to come back. Mr. Teller started to point out how this was impossible, when Mr. Chandler asked permission to answer Mr. Palmer, and did 80 by asking another question. He asked if it were not a fact that the declaration of policy made by Mr. Cleveland was made public before the gold had gone out of the country at all; if the occasion of that dec- jaration had not been an intimation from Mr. Carlisle that if some of the banks hold- ing gold did not let it out the coin certi cates would have to be redeemed in silver. Mr. Palmer replied that he could not an- swer this question, and that the object of his inquiry was to get more light and not to argue that Mr. Cleveland’s declaration had actually brought the gold back. In fact, he did not know that Mr. Cleveland had actually authorized the declaration of his policy, which had been printed. Mr. Chandler retorted that it was a fact that this announcement of policy had been made some time before the gold had begun to £0 out of the country, and added that he was informed that Mr. Carlisle had written a letter to the subtreasurer in New York di- recting him to redeem coin certificates in silver. This order, he said, had been recall- ed before it had been put into effect, as he understood, at the earnest solicitation of bankers. Out of that situation had come Mr. Cleveland's declaration that the certi- ficates would be redeemed in gold. Mr. Chandler Question. Mr. McPherson raised some question as to the accuracy of this understanding of the case, and Mr. Chandler asked if he did not know that such a letter had been writ- ten by Mr. Carlisle. Mr. McPherson disclaimed any such knowledge, and rather intimated a doubt as to Mr. Carlisle or Mr. Cleveland's ever having made any declaration of policy. Mr. Chandler then suggested that if the declaration of policy were authorized, and that if it had any influence upon the move- ment of gold, it must have been to cause its exportation and the panic, since both the exportation and the panic followed the statements purporting to emanate from the Secretary of the Treasury and the Presi- dent. He asked Mr. McPherson, also, if it were not true that the Senate had not, just before Mr. Carlisle became Secretary of the Treasury and after it was known that he had been selected for that place, adopted @ measure authorizing the sale of bonds to get gold, and if this had not been done at the instance of Mr. Carlisle—at his soll tation by telegraph from New York and at the Capitol in person. Mr. McPherson did not agree that that statement of the case was exactly correct, ‘but had no more to say on the subject. ‘This ruxning debate occupied about three- quarters of an hour, and apparently gave the silver men considerable satisfaction. ————-o.+—_____ PAST GRAND MASTERS Of Odd Fellows Continue Their As- sembly With a Parade.
