H e walked quietly for a few yards, when h e suddenly made a break from his captor* and jumped over the dock into the water, and attempted to oommit suioide. A rope wss quiokly secured and one of the stevedore made a loop on the end, and as tbe man came up a second time it was thrown over his shoulders, and tbe would be suicide was hauled on the dock, where be was secured. Boston, Anguat Valantine Graft, a burly 300-pound Bavarian, triad to mardar hia wife at Eaat Boston thU afternoon by jumping upon bar, and than, thinking bar a ootpaa, ha thraw himself into the harbor, being ebaeed to the edge of the wharf by a large crowd of men and boys. Be waa reeoned by mean* of a laeeo and looked up. Oraff U a dissipated fellow and haa not lived with hia wife for tw o yean. To-day ha foroed hia way into the honae in whioh ehe had been living an d ordered her to go and live with him. Her refusal angered him and he then tried to kill her. The alarm waa given by tbeir two ohildren, who were in the honae at the time, and then Oraff fled. A neighbor immediately gave ohaae. He was joined by at least 50 men and boys. Oraff ran like a deer'down the wharf of the Sngar Honae dock, with the howling mob after him. The mounted police of the Northwest Territory then got after the Indians and turned them away. They went to I.egare's place asking for food and council. lie says he spread a feast for them, costing $350, and by representing that he was their only friend induced 1(5, then 32, then 200, then all the other bands of Indians to go with him to Fort Buford, amoug them being Sitting Bull himself. Legale claims that he was put to* great expense in feeding and transporting the Indians from time to time. It is said the United States Government is willing to give him 12,000. Winnipeg, September 3.—The wit of Jean Louis Legare against the United States 'Goveniment'begau at Rigina, N. W. T.,(Saturday. " Legate? claim is ajpeculiar one. He lays that the United States 'owesfchim $13,412 for looking after the American Sioux Indians who crossed into Canada after the Custer massacre from 1877 to  when he induced them, with Sitting Bull at their head, to surrender at Fort Buford, Mon. He says that in 1873 the American agents sought to induce Sitting Bull's band to recross the line, but were unsuccessful. In 1879, Allison was sent from Ft. Buford on a like mission, and with as little success. Then, in 1881, Major Crozier renewed the effort, endeavoring for three months to induce Sitting BuH and his band to surrender. All his efforts wero in vain. Font Piny Smipected. Clevelakd, Sept. 3—Labor Day waa obaervad for the first time in Cleveland today. There waa a parade of about 1.300 members of various trades unions. The appearance of a large red flag oarrled by a bakers' union made up of Germans greeted an immense amount of indignation among the people on the streets. On Ontario street several men were about to rash into the prooeesion to tear down the flag, when they were stopped by the police. On either side of the red flag marched a 'man with large red baldrios. The prcoession marched to Haltnorth'e garden, where speechee were made and a band concert given. At Haltnorth'e garden the red flag waa hoisted over one of the rustic arbors. This fact and the singing of the Marsellaise by the Anarohists created a row. Fiete and clnbe were freely need and blood flowed from broken heads and bruised faoee. A call was sent in for a patrol wagon. Before it arrived the three officers in the garden had arrested the ringleaders of the Oeruans, who were the canse of the disturbance. They were dragged ont of the garden and started down Woodland avenue to meet the patrol wagon. Their companions, blood-thirsty and furions, followed after the polioe and made a determined effort to rescue tbeir companions. The three offioers first nsed their clubs with good effect, and when the situation became more serious revolvers were drawn. At this juncture the patrol wagon came np. A dozen offioers leaped ont of it and dashed into tbe mob, which by this time had swollen to considerable proportions- Four more arrests were made, and the prisoners taken to the First precinct, where they were charged with inciting to riot' Tbeir names are Ben Bill, a Swiss; O'Neil Schilling, Godfrey Oatermyer, Chas. Lube and Gastave Ruttener, all Germans. Tbe row in the garden was precipitated by the singing of tbe Marsellaise. The red flag was torn down during the noelee. A V«ry Sad Riorj.

Harrisburo, August 30.—District Attorney Knnkel today told of a case of ntreme cruelty to ft bright girl of seventeen by her father, George Kilner, who, until several months ago, held a responsible pos ition in the water department. Kilner,s present wife is the atepmotber of the girl, and since hla marriage to her, about five years ago, the girl baa had a miserable life. To day ahe was discovered in the garret of Kilnert house, with only a ragged dress covering her body, reduced to almost a skeleton, and in a condition verg - iog on starvation. Her back was covered with the marks of the lash, her eyes were swollen and bloodshot, anil her fingers were long and bony, and with the skin drawn over her cheek bones she presented a pitiable sight. She told the polioe officer who discovered her that she had been kept a prisoner in the room for over 4 hundred daje, with nothing bnt bread to eat, and several times during the heat of July and August she said she almost died. She said she had been put there for not obeying her stepmother. The Distriot Attorney was apprised of the case by the neighbors, and he now has the matter in charge.

UNIONTOWX, Pa., August 29.—Rumor* and suspicions are rife that the death of Mrs. Alioe Potter, near Ohio Pfle, was not caused by her own hand, as at first supposed. The woman's father and other near friends believe she was the victim of foul play, and have related to the District Attorney the suspicious circumstances that lead them to this belief. They claim that the wounds found on her head could hardly have been indicted by the driftwood that might have struck bttr in floating down the creek, especially since no other part of her person showed any bruises or discoloration*. Their belief U that the marks on the head were inflicted by violent hands. They desired a post mortem to be held in the first, place, but yielded to opposition. Circumstances occurring since the burial deepen their suspicions, and they now lay the matter before Distriot Attorney Hertzog, who today directed Coroner Keagan to disinter the body and hold a post mortem. It wu the opinion of a physician who hastily examined tbe wounds that at least one of them was made while tli« blood was yet in circulation. Tbe aff<tir is creating great talk in the community. Chicago, Sept. 3 —Nina Van Zindt b»» put off mourning and was seen tripping down street lately in a charming suit of white and gaily-o ilored ribbons. Her f«ee wore a bright, bapp; smile, and the s»d and angry expression, since the 8|>i«-s troubles began and lor six months after bis death appear to have gone. It is believed she haa given up the publication of her book at whloh she had been at work for some time, whieh was to have been known as "A Revieu of the Tumult." H»t rich Pittsburg aunt, with whom she fell out during the Anarohist exoitement, is also said to have forgiven her and a complete reconciliation haa been bronght about. As Nina is a young lady of oonsid - erable talent, it is believed by her friends that she will yet make her mark in the fleld of literature. 8he la said to be engaged upon a work now whioh will be a vindication of Spiea and his companions, m far as her powers can go in that direction.Salem, Mass., August 29.—Au interesting story was brought to light t<>-day at the Hospital when James Murphy was carried there to have an ugly wound on his face sewed up. James was a leading member of a Catholic Total Abstinence Society and was in good standing last night. On bis return from a meeting he found his mother drinking whiskey, it is alleged. He told her that he would take to the intoxioating cup if he ever again found her under the influence of liquor. When he returned for his dinner this noon, it is said, hi* mother was drank. A few words passed between them and then young Murphy took his membership papers in the Total Ahstinnnoe 8ociety from his pocket, threw tbem into the fire and made a bee line for the uearest saloon. He drank as much wbbkey as he conld hold and was soon howliug druiik. In that condition be presented himself to his moth er.
