WASHINGTON, Aug. 5. -—Shooting at
small boys for stealing half ripe fruit
threatens to become epidemic in Washing-
ton. Yesterday residents in the vicinity
of the Japanese legation were startled by
the report that Oscar Reid, a white boy,
was shot while pilfering some green fruit
in the yard attached to the Japanese le-
gation in N street, between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth streets, northwest. . The

report was that the shot had been fired by:

Some one connected with the legation, and
for a few minutes the excitement in that
neighborhood was intense.

The recollection of Friday’s tragedy, in
which the daughter of Brigadier General

lagler figured so distressingly, is still
11 the minds of the people; hence it was
not difi‘icult to create a sensation over the
alleged shooting. The reported killing of
Oscar Reid was unfounded, and all the
circumstances were greatly exaggerated
in the original stories circulated.

When a reporter called at the Japanese
legation, a young man' employed there,
who said his name was Harry Stewart,
crime to the door. He talked freely about
the affair and admitted that he had done
some of the shooting. There were about
four shots fired, he thought, and part of
them were fired by a young Japanese
whose name he refused to give. The
boys, he said, had ~ annoyed them until
they could endure it no longer.

They had thrown a great many stones
over into the garden while trying to
knock off the peaches, and it had become
dangerous to walk there. The boys were
there yesterday as usual, and when they
went out the boys refused to go away, and
the shots were fired. He said he had no
Intention of even injuring the boys, and
he knew the cat rifle had not the neces-
sary force even if he desired to hurt them.
All he wanted to do was to frighten them,
and this he thinks he did.

The Flagler Tragedy.

There is still much suppressed excite-
ment among the colored population of the
city over the killing of the little colored
boy, Ernest Green, by Miss Flaglcr. The
latter suddenly disappeared after being
acquitted by the coroner’s jury, and she
ls supposed to have left the city to avoid
further trouble for the present. While
few believe that she killed the boy inten-
tionally she is most severely criticised for
the wanton recklessness with which she
handled her pistol. The colored people
are naturally indignant and very much
wrought up. The best people in the city
sympathize with the young woman and
the family of the boy, yet they are not
unmindful of the fact that the cause for
killing the boy was very trivial, and criti-
cism falls heavily upon Miss Flagl‘er.
There is a great deal of unfavorable com-
ment upon the coroner for what is termed
extreme haste in impaneling a jury and
the rapidity with which the case was dis-
posed of. Had the case been reversed—a
colored girl killed a white boy—people
argue that the cononer’s jury would have
given a different verdict. It is said that
Miss Flagler left the city last night for
Toronto to join her parents, where they
are spending the summer.

The indignation of the colored people
over the shooting grows more pronounced
every hour. It only needs a cool and de-
termined leader to organize a demonstra<
tion to condemn the shooting itself as well
as Major Moore’s part in the affair in dis-
playing what the colored people say was
an unjustifiable and extraordinary anx-
iety to see Miss Flagler cleared. They re-
gard the holding of, the inquest within a
few hours after the death of the boy as a
most indecent exhibition of haste, and
that it was done in order to prevent hold-
ing Miss Flagler in custody over night.

An Indignation Meeting.

Another feature of the case which is
being denounced by the colored people is
the fact that the body of the boy, as" they
claim, was cut 11p unnecessarily by the
surgeons who held the autopsy. They say
there was no necessity for ripping the
body open from the throat to the abdo-
men in order to investigate a bullet
wound through the lungs. The under-
taker, one of Mr. Green’s friends, said
that the body had been mutilated in an
unwarranted manner.

There is talk of an indignation meet-
‘ng to be held on Wednesday night. Perry

arson, is said to favor such a move, but
the more conservative of the colored pe0<
plc seem to think that suchameeting
would be an unwise move, and that it
would be infinitely better to await the de-
cision of the grand jury before action is
taken. Lawyer Hewlett, a colored law-
yer, whilc free to admit that the verdict
of the coroner’s jury was premature and

unwise in the extreme, said that a meet- '

ing expressing indignation Would do more
to injure than to aid the cause. He. felt
sure that the grand jury would probe the
matter to the bottom and see that justice
was done. He would not attend, neither
would he favor such a meeting.

Samuel Mose, one of the leading legal
advisers cf the colored race, said he had
heard some talk of such a meeting, but
thought that it would be better to let the
matter rest for the present, thinking that
such undue haste would do more to hurt
the case before the grand jury than it
could possibly do good. ’

Mrs. Flagler Prostrated.
HALIFAX, Aug. 5.—-General D. W.
Flagler, United States army chief of
ordnance, and Mrs. Flagler arrived here
on Wednesday, intending to tour Nova
Scotia, passing on to Yarmouth. There a
message came to them of a tragedy in

Washington in which Miss Flagler took,

part. They left for Washington yesterday.
Mrs. Flagler is prostrated with grief.

The Procrastinating Turk.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 5.—The reply of

Is not satisfactory. At the fereign em-
bassies it is looked upon as nothing more

reform in Armenia.

He Carr-led Five Out of Six Counties Ina
Saturday’s Primary Elections.

PHILADELPHIA Aug. 5.—Primary elec;
tions were held in six counties Saturday
for the election of delegates to the county
conventions, which will be held this week,
for the purpose of selecting delegates to
the Republican state convention which
meets on» Aug. 28.

In five of the six counties the returns
thus far received show that Senator Quay
has been victorious. In Dauphin'county,
which will have five delegates in the con-
vention, the vote was unanimous for
Quay. In Elk county there was scarcely
any opposition to the junior senator, and
Elk’s one delegate will go to Quay. Sus-
quehanna’s vote was practically a unit for
delegates favorable to the Beaver states‘]
man. The fight in Clinton county was
very bitter, but Quay has carried the‘
county, which adds another delegate to:
his list. In Huntingdon county in the 15,
districts heard from Quay delegates have
been chosen by an overwhelming majority.

In Luzerno county the Hastings follow-i
ers have had a practical walkover. They,
claim eight out of the nine delegates, with,
a fighting chance for the ninth. The Quay’

affairs. At the request of Attorney Sum-
ner, Banker Henry F. Royce has com-
menced an examination of the few books
in the bank not taken by Walden, the
missing cashier.

Mr. Royce said that he had not been
in the bank five minutes before he dis-
covered why Cashier John L. Walden left
so suddenly. Mr. Royce decided not to
make public his discovery at this time.
He said the affairs of the bank had been.
conducted in a very slipshod way, but he
thought it would be an easy matter, to de-
termine the amount of the bank’s assets.
It would take two months, however to
find out what the liabilities are. top,

And His Second Letter Given After He Had Made a

We submit here Dr. Funning’s first letter to THE SENTIN EL, which is as follows:

and exhaustive of all Encyclopedias, and regard it as now superior to all others in cheapness

He has spent some time in making a thorough examination of

the set, and we now submit the following letter from him, which is a frank expression of his

opinion at the present time.

of a damaging nature should be said in the future of the Sentinel edition of Britannica it
should be looked upon with suspicion. ’

tion of this edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, and I am confirmed in my former

impressions of its qualities.

I have used the eighth and ninth editions of the original for

After receiving the above the Sentinel, for its own

the following questions :

satisfaction, asked Dr. Dunning

“ Do you now consider this edition of Britannica of as much value as th’; Oiiginal
He replied, “ I do; and I’ve practically said so in this letter.” A

“ Do you consider a condensed encyclopedia, in any form, of more value than this
new edition of Britannica to a family who owns but few b inks and who are unwilling or
unable to buy books on all topics?”

In reply to this Dr. Dunning said :

“ You may say that, in my opinion, the great ma-

jority of people would undoubtedly find the Encyckrporlia Britannica by far the most valu-
able investment, especially if the condensed work was to cost an equal amount of money.”
