A CASE OF POEtIC JUSTICE. Hotel Blown Up-The Dynamiter Himself The Only Victim-Marvellous Escape of the Proprietor of the Golden Eiagle, on the Corner of New Jersey Av. - nue and DStreer, Washington, D. L.,hia Family and Ou' NtN. shingt',n, September 25.-The .'t .igl Hotel, on the corner o. 4-w Jersey avenue and D. street, was dyuaniittd 'h ; :norning at 4 30' oiuck by Frank McKie, one of the gie' , who subEequently committed sc'ic-. Between twenty and thirty gutEs, were thrown from their beds by,, h-> expiosion, but only the pro p.ewr, L:uis Brandt, and his wife were irjrt d. The roof of the build ing was blown off and the falling wreckt;ge crashed through to the basement, leaving the structure as if wrecked by a tornado. Every pane of glass in the building and the ad joining structures was broken. The explosion called out the fire depart ment. The affair is involved in some mystery. The proprietor gave a banquet last night in honor of his wife, who had just returned from Gtrmany, and McKie was a guest. McKie boarded at the hotel for four years and had been treated as a member of the Brand family, which includes a daughter, Sophie, with whom McKie is said to have been in love. Brandt denies that there was any understanding between the two. McKie remarked last night that he was going to wait until Sophie re turned from Germany with her mother, and then he was going to his old home in Philadelphia. Mrs. Brandt and her daughter returned about 8 o'clock last night. The at tempt at wholesale murder followed this morning. McKie with a pistol in his hand was seen by an employee of a lunch room opposite the hotel just. before the shots were fired. When the explosion ocenrre d a slight blaze sprang from the debris, but it was quickly extinguishe~d by the fire depart-nent. Brandt and his wife were quickly rescued before many of the thirty guests of the establish ment bad reached the part of the building in which MeKie's room was located. McKie, with revolver in his hand, was found lying on the floor with his head in a pool of blood. k bullet hole near the right ear had d instant death. Brandt was w e abo'nt the body and shaken ?[adly and received a severe cut on the hg. Mro .irandt sustained br uises about the body and a cut h... When the wrecked building was sear ched today enough dynamite a a found i McKie's trunk to wreck a : ack of buildings. There were six whnole sticks and part of two or t'.ree o.rd'en sticks, together with a btox of caps and a quantity of wire f...r long distance explosion. He had had at let nine sticks of dynamite in his possession. McKie was about 28 years old. He 'was form.~erly of Philadelphia and had relatives in Chicago. His brother, Harry McKie, was killed in Ohicago last year, according to a telAgraml found in the dead man's voom today. McKie was a niacbin ist in the navy yard here, but re signed on inheriting upwards of $20,000 about four years ago. This amount he is said to have lost on the races and his act is accredited by some to this loss. Detectives are in vestigating the case today. EX rREMELY LOW R eT E8. To Wasbington D. V., and return.

(Charlotte Observer.) New York, Sept. 28.-The ginia Carolina Chemical Comp according to the Evening Sun, templates largely increasing facilities and placing itself in a sition to dictate prices of cotton and cotton seed oil. The Sun s The sale of $7,000,000 of bond the Virginia Carolina Chemical C pany to Hallgarten & Co., and 1 & Co., has put the company possession of ample funds to enli its buriness and materially incr its resources in every way. step has been contemplated since company pur chased its potash p in Germany last summer, which served to strengthen the comi immeasurably. The bonds will imburse the company for the ou involved in this purchase and for a number of other purch made during the last year in way of cotton mills and mii plants. It will also give the c pany all available means neces to continue the manufacture of tilizer and cotton seed on a l1 scale. An enlarged trade in fertil is expected by the management ing the current year. The cotton seed oil business, the contrary, will, it is believed, less brisk. The rise in price of ton seed promises, however, not to curtail the sale of oil, but alsc make the manufacturA of oil a lo business to new outside mills as I will be compelled to buy seed at highest prices and sell oil at the price because the facilities of the ginia Carolina Chemical Comf will enable it to dictate prices both.

[From the Chicago Tribune.] Over-crowding is the motto of the day. The factories are over crowded; the theatres are over-crowded the tenements are over-crowded. The only reason why one does not say that the street cars are over-crowded is that they are somelning worse. All such over-crowdings, however, are sparsene=s and loneliness compared with the over crowding of the Bar. In 1890 there were 58 law schools, with 6,0~73 students. Now, accord ing to an estimate made by Prof. Hnffcutt, of Cornell, there are 120 schools, with 14,000 students. Mean while the number of full fledged law) ers in the United States is said by the last census to be about 114, 000. No other profession, with the exception of teaching and of medi cine, is so populous. Select specimens of you choicest grains, vegetables, finely bred stock, including poultry, for exhibition at the State Fair.
