Waters, a mer- chant at Germantown, was on Wednesday taken before Justice Jos. A. Taney to be confronted by the man to whom it was sup- posed he sold the stolen wool, a Mr. Lou! Hophmyer of Washington. The wool deal- er failed to recognize Swartzbach as the person he had dealt with. He, how vr, gave a description of the horse and wagon by means of which the wool was brought to his store, and the description tallied with the team owned by the accused, and he was remanded to jail for a further hearing on Monday. On Sunday Mr. Hophmyer visit- ed this place in company with a -olored man in his employ, and upon visiting the jail the colored man at once recognized Swartebach as one of the men who kad been with the horse and wagon on the day the wool was sold to his employ: From the description of the person who had sold the wool suspicion was directed to Roland H. Griffith, a young man living at Darnes- town, and upon the solicitation of Mr. Waters, Hophmyer visited that place, and, after seeing Griffith, at once tdentified him as the person who had sold him the wool. Griffith was at once arrested on the charge | and afterward taken before Justice Morgan of this town, where he was required to give bail In the sum of $5) to answer the charge. The requisite bail was gi by an uncle of the accused and he was released. On the evening before the sale of the wool the horse and wagon of Swartabach was seen to pass through this place In the dl- to rection of the District.

A number of stores in various sections have been broken into and robbed, horses and cattle have mysteriously disappeared and farm products, such as wheat, corn, meat, poultry, etc., have been purloined un many occasions, and it is now thought that all this thieving was done by the men errested and those connected with’ them. Swartz- bach has long been suspected of being en- gaged in these robberies, but up to the time of his arrest Griffith bore the reputation of an honest youth, and is 2 member of one of the most respected families in the county, Ridgley Brown Camp of Confederate Vet- erans held their semi-annual meeting at this place on Saturde thirty-five mem- bers being in attendance.

Frietch ga‘ for Europe in a Forty-Foot Boat. Capt. A. Frietch, the adventurous young Finlander who built himself a forty-foot sharpie in which to make a trip to Europe, and thereby demonstrate the superiority of United States models for small vessels and thelr ocean-sailing capabilities, started for Queenstown from New York yesterday af- ternoon. He was given a most enthusiastic send-off by his Scandinavian-American brethren of New York. A score of tugs, rowboats, cat- boats, yawls and sloops formed an escort and went down the bay, in additioi to the tugs placed at Capt. Frietch’s disposal by the McCaldin Bros. The latter firm's tug, the McCaldin Brothers, towed the gallant sailor’s little craft, the Nina, out to Sandy Hook. Two other large tugs had on board the Finnish Social Club of Brooklyn and several score of Scandinavian-Americans. The Nina lay in the slip at the Battery until nearly 4 o'clock. Visitors had board- ed her by the hundred during the day, and up to the time of sailing there were many more people who could not get aboard. The McCaldin Brothers passed a line to the Nira and she was towed around to pier 3, East river. Here a band of music from one of the Scandinavian societies boarded her and played national American and Scandi- navian airs. The Nina flew the American and Norwegian flags from her mizzen. It was 4 o'clock when all was ready for the start, and the Nina's lines were thrown off and she started on the voyage to Queenstown, the people on the piers givins her hearty cheers, and the tugs and ether craft parsing up and down the river at the time saluting by toots of whistle and dip- plag of ensizns. The procession down the bay was char- acterized by similar entiusiastic demon- strations, and the number of small craft that helped to make up the venturesome mariner’s guard of honor drepped out of the parade as decp water was appr ed. Capt. Frietch had been in New Yori weeks, and during that time the litt sel has been visited by many thousands of hardy Norsemea, who wiilingly contributed their quarters to heip their country Capt.

It is reported at Kingston, Jamaica, that fighting has begun in San Domingo. Revo- lution has long been imminent. San Domingo has been in a state of un- rest ever since the last election, in Novem ber, 1892, when President Heureaux w elected to succeed himself. He is president, and, in fact, dictator. The country has a j chamber of deputies and courts, but all Judicial and other proceedings are largely affected by the executive. Reports General Campos, governor of the Azua district, was ambushed and assassinated while riding upon the public road on De- cember 10, 1 and a few days later the first attempt was made on President Heur- caux's iife, and a conspiracy was disclosed which resulted im the imprisonment and subsequent execution of Carlos and Pablo lent Baez. the president or three days after. The insurrection was promptly put down, however, after less than a fortnight’s fighting. It left Heurcaux in a_ very nervous and apprehensive state, and he used every means at hand to terrify his enemtes, caus- ing the arrest and imprisonment of several persens known to be hostile to him. His spies were everywhere. The seaports were sely watched, and no foreigners were permitted to land unless they had passports properly vised. Twelve martial executions, it is said, took place during the months of last January and February. Among the twelve was that of Francis Pidtado, an al- leged dynamiter, brother of the Spanish censul to San Domingo. The consul himsel? was banished from the island without re- course to any of the diplomatic formalities. ‘The steamship which arrived in New York on July 26 last, cleven days out from San Domingo, brought news of renewed ex- citement in the republic, and of the immi- nent danger of an, uprising. It also brought the story of another attempt to assassinate Heureaux, and the execution of the ring- leaders of the plotters. see Zelaya and a Dictatorship. Rumors are afloat, says a Managua, Nic- aragua, special to the New York Herald, that the chief executive is preparing for a coup d'etat, with the object of overthrowing the constitution. The Herald correspondent interviewed President Zelaya on this delicate question, and he said that several municipalities are disgusted with the new constitution, as are the coffee growers with the new law for- bidding the pursuit and capture of runaway laborers. The new constitution, he says, ties the hands of the chief executive and his ministers, and is absurd and imprac- tleable. He cannot carry on the government under its provisions, he declares, and it must be improved or replaced by the old one, with amendments. This feeling on the part of the president 1s not shared by a majority of the assembly, and the president denies any intention of perpetrating a coup d'etat, but many per- sons think they see it coming, and they believe Zelaya covets a dictatorship. a ee Copies of the Independence Belge of Brus- sels, containing a summary of Santo Caserio’s statement to the jury, have been seized at Lille, in accordance with tbe new anti-anarchist law of France us and prompt administration | PANIC AT A BALL GAME, Fire Broke Out in the Chicago Grand Stand, Fire broke out in the fifty-cent pavilion of the Chicago base ball stand about 4:55 o'clock yesterday afternoon, during the sev- enth inning of the Chicago-Cincinnati game, causing a panic among the spectators, in which E. W. Bartlett sustained a fracture of his leg, and many other spectators were slightly injured. About 450 feet of the stand, comprising the entire west wing, bleachers, fifty-cent pavilion and twenty be of grand stand boxes were reduced to ashes. The origin of the fire is problematical, but is supposed to have been caused from a lighted match or cigar having been thrown through an opening in the foot-rest upon a tcol house below, where the blaze was first Sry togem The attendance was close to About two thousand people occupied the destroyed part of the stand at the time of the fire, id they instantly rushed to save their lives. Intense excitement prevailed and there was a general rush to the exits, which were soon thronged. The flames spread so rapidly that many became be- wildered, causing a stampede. Held Back by a Barbed Wire Fence. Some tried to jump into the ball field, but were deterred from doing so by four or five cows of barbed wire, which had been put there to prevent spectators crowding the players after the game. This, however, did not long prove a barrier to the thoroughly panic-stricken crowd. Some crowded between and others ove> the thorned barricade, lacerating their legs and hands, and tearing their clothes almost into shreds in their eagerness to escape. E. W. Bartlett, forty-eight years of age, was one of the occupants of the fifty-cent pa- vilion. He became panic-stricken when he was unable to escape by means of the exits, and rushed back to the top tlers of the stand and jumped down into the street, a distance of about twenty feet. He was picked up and taken to the Coun- ty Hospi It was found there that his leg Was broken. In the meantime, Superintendent of the 3rounds Coon had turned on the hose, which is used to cool the bleachers, but the tire had gained such headway that it could effect little good. Checking the Flames, An alarm had been sent in promptly. When the firemen arrived they found the fifty-cent pavilion nearly consumed. The fire was spreading to the grand stand, but they succeeded in checking it at the second tier. Fireman Edward O'Hearn was aiso in- jured. The stand was one of the best in the country. It cost about $45,000 to construct ita few years ago. The loss will amount to about $20,000. It is insured for fully that amount. A fence will be placed arovnd the grounds for to- 3 game. The grsnd stand will be re- wilt at ence, and is expected to be entirely completed by the time the Chicago club re- turns from its next eastern trip. Stabbed. ly yesterday morning Steve Brodie was stabbed In the right side of the neck by a man named Heany, a bookmaker, forty-four years old. The stabbing took place in Brcdie’s New York saloon. Brodie was taken to St. Vircent’s Hospital. The | hospital surgeons said that Brodie would | probably recover, but that he had barely escaped with his life. Heany, after the stabbing, threw away the knife, a small pearl-handled one, and attempted to run away. He was overhauled by a policeman nd locked up. The stabbing wes the result of a quarrel over an election bet. _____ AUCTION SALES. ____ THIS AFTERNOON. _ ANSON BKOS., aCCTIONEERS.
