The steamer George Leary, with a party | of colored excurstonists on board, was the | scene of a cutting affair last night, which | may possibly prove fatal. There was a | large party on the boat when the start was made from Glymont, and, as usual, many of them were under the influence of liquor. Soon after the start on the homeward journey was made two of the young men, | Malchoir Williams and Harry Talbert, had some words, which resulted in blows, and finally Williams drew his penknife and stabbed ‘Talbert in the left side of the stomach. ‘The injured man was cared for as well as possible, and Williams was locked up Ly the officers on the boat and detained until the steamer reached the wharf here. ‘Then he was turned over to Policeman vans, who locked him up at the fourth police station. Williams said that he and ‘Talbert had been on bad terms for more than a year, but for what reason he did not know. Tal- bert, he said, had been drinking last night. “And,” he said, “he called me a ‘— —.’ I won't take that off anybody, and so we clinched.” He said that when he saw Talbert try to get his knife, he (Williams) pulled out his Enife and cut him. At the Emergency Hospital it was found that Talbert was seriously wounded, al- though he had not lost consciousness. He rested well during the night, but appeared no better today. Williams was taken to the Police Court today, and the case was continued to await the result of Talbert's injuries. —_—.__ PLASTER FEL Resu Down the it of THE One Man Injared and n Great Scare at the Government Printing Office. No little excitement occurred among the many employes of the government printing office about 11 o'clock this morning, when, without warning, a loud crash was heard, followed immediately by the appearance of a cloud of dust. A report, which quickly spread throughout the office, that one and perhaps two men had been badly injured did not tend to allay the general feeling of trepidation. An investigation, however, showed that the noise and dust resulted from a fall of plaster, one man only sus- taining slight injuries therefrom. The accident happened in a large toilet and wash room on the second floor of the old structure, the windows facing North Capitol street. The room is directly to the north of the entranc? stairway, and ad- joins a spacious composing room. It is claimed that the toilet room was seldom used of late, because other accommodations with modern improvements have been pro- ided, the men merely making use of the wash basins 1n the old room. However, John S. Burnside, a printer, of 64 I street northeast, was caught squarely under a mass of plaster about seven feet by three in dimensions. Another occupant of the room escaped injury by a narrow margin. Burnside was picked up from the debris In a dazed condition, and as quickly as possible taken to the Sibley Memorial Hos- pital. An examination by the surgeons disclosed a few cuts about the head and several bruises, none of which are of a se- rious nature. The superintendent of the building was .on the spot soon after the fall, and at once put a force of men_ to work to clean up the mass of plaster. The entrance to the room was then closed, with planks nailed across the doorway, and within a short time the customary’ calm prevailed throughout the building. —— Georgetown College Commencement. The annual commencement of George- town University will be held this year on Tuesday, June 23, at 10 o'clock in the morn- ing. The graduating class this year will be larger than for some years previous, the most noticeable increase being in the post- graduate cou: ‘he program for the clos- ing day exercises 1s now being made up, and prepafatory to that day the students are now taking their final annual éxaminda- tions. Ag in former yéars, an invitation has been extendéd to President Cleveland t6 preside, and, should the chief executive be in the city at the time, he will most likely accept. ——— The Best Essay.

The complainant is Frederick Ward, who swore out the warrant. Cassie was doing some washing for him and took clothes valued at $7.50, which she failed to return.

MAY BE A Possibility That is Distarbing the Dintrict Democracy. tion that considerably disturbed District politicians today was that the District of Columbia may be denied any representation whatever at. the Chicago cenvention, unless the delegates elected to represent it sete all their differences at home and present a harmonious front when they apply for admission. Those who thought such an outcome probable claim the District has been granted representa- tuon in democratic national conventions in the past through courtesy only. It was never, they say, recognized tn such a way until 184, and it was plainly declared then that the compliment was not extended be- A sugge many cause of any claim that it was just or right.

Some prominen democrats, who have been watching the signs of another fight from this section, are free in their expressions that it is useless for the convention to waste time trying to settle domestic strife among District democrats, —__._. Died on the Train, William J. Mobley, for five years a prac- ticing lawyer of this city, died on an Alex- andria local train yesterday afternoon about 5:20 o'clock. Mr. Mobley was sitting in a seat with Bernard Conroy, and just as the train passed the brick yards at the south end ot the Long bridge, on its way to this city, Mr. Conroy doticed his com- panion’s head fail on his breast and his life- less body sinking tn the seat. Deati was due to a stroke of apoplexy. Upon the arrival of the train at the 6th street depot, the coroner was notified, and with his permission. the body was removed to the home of the decea: 473 C street. Dr. Hanna was called in, but pronounced life extinct. Mr. Mobley was a native of Kentucky, in which state he was highly connected. ‘He was born in 1844, and was a nepaew of ex- Governor MeGuflin. He was graduated from the West Point Military Academy and be came first lieutenant in the 4th U.S. Cav- alry, resigning in 1869, He was very popu- lar in the army, not only with his brother officers, but with the men in his regiment, frequently defending them in the courts, nis lega! training fitting him for tne duties of advocate, which he, on occasions, velun- tarily assumed. After his resignation. he Ky was elected mayor of Harrodsburg, and also served gs judge in one of the in- ferior courts of his native state. About a month ago his brother in Kentucky died, and Mr. Mobley had taken his death very much to heart. His wife died ten years ago, and an only son, about twelve years of age, survives him.
