A few days ago William Stnckhousc,
detective in tho employ of the Philadelphia
and Heading Itiillroail Company, took de
cisivc steps nt Catawissa in disclosing tho
systematic robbery of freight trains rnn -
njniiov -,'nu ,ltuwissn Hnd Wllhnmsport
branch of the Heading railroad, which lias
covered period of six or eight years. Tho
losses of tho company through this means
over tho Catnwlssa and Wllllamsport
branch will aggregate $10,000 or more, nud
hitherto no clue could bo obtained as to
the whereabouts of the gooda. The articles
stolen consisted of dry goods, groceries,
hardware, notions, silks, cloth and every
variety of freight that could be handled
and secreted. For months past Detective
Stack house has been quietly working tho
matter up, and Friday evening one of the
brakemeu formerly employed on the divls.
was charged w 1th having n hand in the
robberies. He broke down when confront
ed with tho evidence against 1dm, and
made a confession implicating about thirty
ot his fillow railroaders. He also told
where a lot of tho goods were concealed.
Search warrants were obtnlned nnd tho
houses Indicated were visited. There
goodj to the nmout of nearly 1,000 wero
recovered.
Ono of tho guilty parties, who heard of
this, hnd a lot of stolen goods In his pos
session sent to Espy, nbout six miles from
Catawissa, where they were concealed In a
hay 6tack ou his brother's farm, Tho do
tecllye traced theso goods nnd secured
them, returning with n wagon-load of
tho plunder. From the evidence 111 tho
hands of Hie authorities obtained through
tlio confessions it appears that theringlead
eri in the work were H. J. Nuss, chief dis
patcher of the Slmnokln Division, formerly
vouuuetur, and in whoso house a large
portion of the goods were found, aud his
brother, Aaron Nuss, now a brnkenmn on

niMsmr ron monky.
I'rom the Vlrtnlitirg llorald.
An odd case of human wretchedness wns
reported yestcrdny by Justice John Levins
nnd Constable Frank Little, who had Just
returned from n trip to Chickasaw bayou.
On n plantation near tho bayou they found
n negro man who had been n farmer until
incapacitated by discaso from working. Ho
first nttracted their nttcntlon by hobbling
nbout on the stumps of what should havo
been his feet nnd exhibiting hnnds which
wcic without fingers or thumb.
Ton much nccustomed to tho sight of
(pieer iWormttlcs In persons of Hie negro
rncc they simply glanced nt htm mid would
havo passed If the unfortunate African had
not deliberately unwrapped a bnndngo
nbout one of his hands nnd carelessly
caught the remaining stump of 11 fltger
between ids kmc nnd t lie wrist of Ids other
hand and with the utmost nonchalanco
pulled the stump rff. He threw It nwny
nnd ngnln put Ids dteflgurcd arms in his
bandages. Ho then scratched a consider
able portion of his left foot oft nnd settled
himself comfortably nt rest on the shndy
side of tho fence.
Tho peace officers rtcovercd their equan
imity after a few seconds and held n con
sultation. They were not euro that If they
disturbed the man that ho would not un.
Joint himself entirely and not wlshtng to
bo tho cause of such n catastrophe, they
wallet until he had time to grow quiet be.
fore they questioned him.
The curiosity started to He at first, but
Justice Lavlus put lilm un Ills oath to tell
tho truth, nnd stopped this. The story
told was that about six months ago the vic
tim noticed that his lingers and toes wero
becoming cramped nnd numb. He paid
no attention until one day In using his In
dex finger ns a stopp. r for his pipe, ho
broke it oft In the bowl. He wns nlnrmcd
and threw tho pipe nwny, nnd ns he did so,
parted with another linger. Panic-stricken
he lied to his home, and had a voudoo doc
tor to attend him. The treatment ho re
ceived did not bcncllt him, nnd ho contin
ued to lose hU fingers nnd toes until he be
came hardened to It, and of late, when he
found one growing too dry, ho would pull
it olt. One of Ins feel was gone ami tho
toes of the other were missing. The last
finger ho possessed was tho one his uudt.
ence saw him remove, and he had stripped
nearly all the calloused flesh from one shin.
He further staled that he never felt pain.
After he finished tho listeners were in
clined to doubt, nnd on the prombo of a
two-bit piece they darky calmly pulled oft
n portion of his left car, which he said was
going very rapidly nnd would fall nwny in
a fw dayn anyhow. He did not seem par
tlculnrly frightened at his condition, as he
thought lie had enough legs and arms to
last n year or two longer at the woist.
None of the man's friends were nblo to
explain how ho contracted his discaso and
tho man did not know himself. Tho gen-
tlemcn who were treated to tho sight of his
condition were also unable to tell what his
trouble is, but nrc inclined to b:llcve Hint
it is something of the nature of leprosy or
clephantasis.
I'uncrnl of H. A. Cnnwell.
The funeral services wero held over the
remains of S. A. Caswell, at his late resi
dence on Fifth street, Sundny evening at
7 o'clock. A sermon was preached by Kcv.
F. P. Mnnhart, of the Lutheran Church,
Bloomsburg, and prayer offered by ltev.

Wllllamsport. Monday morning the body
was conveyed to the depot of the D. L. &
W. It. II. at 8:32, and taken to Jersey Shore
via Northumberland. Tho body being cm
balmed, was kept in nice state of preserva
tion until the arrival of all of his brothers,
the las', of whom reached here Saturday
afternoon. The fuuernl cortege reached
Jersey Shore in safety and after a Journey
of nbout two miles the cemetery was
reached and the last sad rites performed,
and a kind and loving brother consigned to
his resting plnce. Thus nnothcr link of

Washington. D. O., July 11, 1887.
To show tlio ynnlly of nil the speculation
ns to the successor of the lato Justice
Woods, it is only necessary to mention the
fact that ns the new Justice ennnot tako
his scat on the Bench until ho Is confirmed
by the United States Scnnte, so then It Is
not nt all piohablc that tho appointment
will bo made before Congress meets In De
cember, for ns the old saying goes, tlio
President doca not believe "In crossing n
bridge 'till ho gets to It."
Tho President's abandonment of his pro
posed visit to St. Louis Is it theme of ab
sorbing interest and discussion, nnd vol
times pro nnd con. hnyo been wtlttcn nnd
Bpokeu nbout It. Tho President's action
has had two opposite effects with Grand
Army men; one faction plumes Itself in
having repulsed the President, while the
other reluctantly yields lilra respect and
admiration for his resolute moral courage,
which so far, has been equal to every re
quirement throughout his illustrious career.
The next dny after Hie nppenrnncc of his
St. Louis visit, 100 members of General
Landncr post, Grnnd Army of the Uepub
11c, of Lynn, Mnss., cillcd upon the Presi
dent, gnvc three ringing cheers nnd wero
warmly welcomed to the White House byja
patriotic speech from the President.
Under the authority of Congress, Senator
Cockrell Is drawing to a closo his investi
gation ot tho methods of conducting the
buslucss of the various depnrlinents nnd it
is hoped that if no other beneficial result
Is seemed, provision nt least will bo made
for tho settlement of the accounts of dls
burs Ing nlllclal" before gtim death cheats

The colored people of the south nrc com
ing forwnrd ns complainants before the In-tcr-Slate
Commission in n renewed effort
to secure their so-cilled "civil rights" by
forcing themselves to ride in "do samo
cyar wid de white folks." I think it would
be well to dub the Commission, "Tho
Grand High Court of Complaints," as
scarcely a dny passes without every cou-
celvable sort of protest and petition being
gravely presented for their consideration
Despite the great clamor raised by the rail
roads agalnBt the alleged Ingenious effects
of tho Inter-Stnto act, it would be well to
note tho signlfbnnt fact Hint the net earn
ings of the principal roads for the month
of June, 1887, Is greatly iu excess of the
sum earned during the same period last
year. No better argument should bo ad
duced in favor of the law.
A great sensation was created in tho
Treasury by the arrest of Oscar J. Harvey,
chief of a division in the Second Controll
er's ofllce.for forgeries nmounting to $9,200
The defaulter had prepared his papers v
forge accounts amounting to $52,800, and
tho only thing that prevented him from
realizing the sum wns the delay of Con
gross in making the appropriation it cer
talnly would have been made but for the
detection of Harvey's steal, because it is n
portiou of the Deficiency Appropriation.
After being confronted with tho evidences
of Ids crime, the wretched man brokp down
and confessed nil. The penalty Is $1,000
tlno or ten years imprisonment, or both In
each case, nnd there arc n hundred cases
or more.
Mrs. Pickett, widow of tho Confederate
General and hero, has returned from Get

ovation, nnd in greeting your correspond

tho gallant nud generous Union veterans.
In speaking of that memorable and histor
ical event she was nlmost moved to teara.

As a bit of welcome nnd encournglug

The President and .Mrs. Cleveland nro en

celebration and visit several other places
and the trip will doubtless bo one of much
pleasure and Interest to tho people ns well

In his frenzied zcnl to manufacture a lit
tlo more bloody shirt political capital, the

West Point has met witlt n pretty sevcru
retniue from tin, administration in tlierevo
cntion by the president of the unexpected
part or the sentence against Cadet Evans of
Illinois. Ho wns tried by court-martial,
lounu guilty, anil sentenced, because he
had stated to a young lieutenant, who was
ono oi tils mstiuctora, that ho had treated
him unfairly. His classmates told the
mcmuers oi the board ot visitors that
i.vans hud simply told tho truth, whatever
dilfcrcnce of opinion there might bo ns to
the propriety of giving expression to his
views. Hut military discipline ns inter-
pieted at West Point, could not brook tills
and tho sentence of the cumt-inartial con
demned the cadet to remain at tho nend
emy during the entire term of tho encamp
meut, and to be put down two numbers on
the list. Tho confinement micht bo en.
dured, but to bo placed down two numbers
was a great degradation, which would fol.
low tho cadet through life, and which
might seriously Interfere with just promo.
lion at au important period in his career,
Tho ofllcers ut West Point wero remou.
auumu wiiu uy mgti oiuciais. nicy were
told that in tho opluioii of tho outside
world tho sentence was regarded as urbl.
trary and severe, nud would tend to bring
tho academy into disfavor In nii,irt..r0
where It much needs friends. Tho reply
simply was that tho offenso was "heinous"
that was tho term used and that ilm -...
tence must stand
Hut li happened that young Evans had a
great many Influential friends, and ono of
them chanced to be a member of the board
of visitors to West Point this year. That
member investigated thu case, and was
convinced that the cadet was tho victim
either of a persecution or of a martinet
system that ought to bo rebuked. Tho vis.
itor wbb a military man of larger experience
than tho lieu tenant who felt uffronted and
ha3 seen more of the enemy's lire. Ho In
tcrested the ether members of tho board In
tho caso, and one of the visitors camo to
Washington and presented the matter to
tho War Department autho'ltlcs and to the
President. Tho result was that Evans wm
relioved of tho unexecuted part of his sen
tence, and was assigned immediately upon
graduation to a reglmeut to which lmnort.
tint duties havo ueently been intrusted.

The Broad street station at Philadelphia,

will soon bo enlarged.
The memory of the Garfield family Is re
called by the statement that Mollio Gar
Held, the President's daughter, Is to bo
married Hi J. Stanley Brown In September.
Sir. Brown Is best remembered as Mr.
Garfield's private secrctnry, and ns tho
mnn who rendered such tender but efficient
service when tho victim of Gultcnu's bullet
lay sti etched upon his death-bed. Al
though many years the young lady's senior,
he Is credited with having been n gallant
wcoer, and the affection between tho two 1
is said to be the most tender. It had Its
birth, indeed, in those sorry times nt Wash
ington nnd Elberon. Whether or not tho
wedding will be public lias not yet been
decided, but the privacy In which tho fam
ily now llvo would Indlcato n quiet cere
mony. The proprietors of all tho lending hotels
of Huntingdon hnve decided to closo their
houses ngalnst all transient and regular
boarders, to take effect on the 10th, be
cause their applications for heenso were
refused last week.
1 he regular boarders nt nil tho hotels,
who have been notlfled to leave at once,
are greatly distressed by reason of their in
ability to fintl suitable lodging places else
where. Many of them nro being tnken
care of by personal friends. The landlords
Justify their notion by declaring Hint with
out license they ennnot nltord to keep
their Imiscs open. It Is feared that the
c'tc-"n r.f the proposed celebration of the
- 1 .ty's centennial anniversary, to bo held
iu September, will bo seriously Interfered
with in consequence of tho hotels being
closed to the public.
Oscar S. Harvey of Wllkcsbarre, Treas
ury Chief of Division at Washington, is
under arrest for forgery nnd other frnudu-
lent practices. It seems Hint while he was
acting as chief of the horse claims division
he discovered nbout twenty old enses, tn
which nil the necessary pnpers hnd been
perfected, hut which had never boon fin
ally considered, because of the press of
other business, and also because no ono
seemed to bo particularly interested la
them. Mr. Harvey took charge of them
himself, and under the nssumed name of
'W. W. Wynn, attorney," addressed sever
al letters to tho Third Auditor, urging their
Immediate consideration. Harvey then se
cured their allowance by the accounting
officers by means of the counterfeit stamps
nnd forged signatures which hnd been so
successfully employed by him in other
cases.
These clnims amounted to $2,550, nnd
checks for that amount were sent to the
mythical Mr. Wynn, and in that way camo
into the hands of Mr. Harvey, who had 110
difficulty whatever in securing their pay
ment nt tho Citizen's National Bank of
Washington. He forged tho necessary in
dorscments to the checks nnd then ndded
his own nnmc. This new discovery swells
the total amount fraudulently secured by
Harvey to $11,700.

WHY AS OHIO MAN IS DOWN ON HOKINO FOR
NATURAL OAS.
A correspondent of tho Cincinnati Com-
martial predicts an overwhelming disaster
to the sections of country occupied by the
natural gas wells, and is so positlvo in his
assertions that ho urges the calling of an
cxtia sessloh of Congress to take somo no
tion in the mater. He says: Boring for
natural gas should be prohibited by string
ent laws. The eood people if Ohio and
1. I w . ...
lno.',......,. .... . , i..,,i-m.rnnslder
magazines, do not take 'tnno' 'to since tho
that they are toying with a forco that mm
destroy this country nnd themselves. The
dnnger that Impends Is well known to scl.
cntists. Two hundred years ngo in China
there wns Just such a crazo about natural
gas as wc havo In tills country to-day. Gas
wells were sunk with ns much vim and
vigor as tho Celestials wero capable of j but
owing to a gas explosion that killed several
millions of people and tore up and destroyed
a largo district of country, leaving a large''
Inland sea, known on the maps as lake Foo
Chang, the boring of any more gas wills
was then and there prohibited by law. It
seems, according to the Chinese history,
that many largo and heavy pressure gas
wells wero struck, and in soma di'tricts
wells wore sunk quite near to each other.
Gas was lighted as soon as struck, as is
done in this couutry. It is stated that ono
well, with its unusual pressure, by indue
Hon or back draft, pulled down into the
earth the burning gas of n smaller well, re
sulting in a dreadful explosion of a largo
district nnd destroying tho inhnbltnnts
threof. Lake Foo Chang rests on Hits dls.
trict. Tho samo catastrophe Is Imminent
iu this country unless tho laws restrict fur.
ther development in boring so mnny wells.
Should a similar explosion occur thcro will
bo such nn upheaval as will dwarf tho most
teniblo of earthquakes ever known. Tho
country along the gas belt from Toledo
through Ohio, Indiana and Kcntuckv win
ho ripped up to Hie depth of 1,200 to 1,500
feet and floppi d over llko a pancake, lcav--Ing
n chasm through which tho waters of
i.aKo i-.no will como howling down, filling
tho Ohio nnd Mississippi valleys, and blot
ting them out forever. Somo prompt ac.
Hon should bo tnken at onco to prevent this
catastrophe."
