OUTRAGE AND MURDER. A YOUNG COLORED GIRL THE VICTIM. The Murderer, a Uegro Named John Johnson, Hakes His Escape. Information was received in this city yesterday of a horrible murder near Ivanhoe, a station on the C. F. & Y. V. Railroad, in Sampson county, about- thirty miIes from Wilmington. The victim was a young colored girl between eleven and twelve years of age. named Florence Sutton. She was killed last Saturday night by a mulatto named John Johnson, who made his escape. Particulars of the horrible crime are rather meagre, j Saturday evening John son was at the house of the girl's mother and sent Florence to a neighbor's to get a gallon of cider. On her return he met her on the road and criminally as saulted her. ; The girl ' failing to return home, search was made for her Saturday night and Sunday morn ing; Johnson joining in the search, but no trace of her could be found. John son was strongly suspected of having made away with the girl and was close ly watched, and Sunday evening after a hard rain he was tracked from his home to a place in the woods where he had -hurriedly -buried . the dead body of the girl, and so imper fectly that one of her feet was found uncovered. ! In the' meantime Johnson disap peared, and yesterday it was ascertained that he had crossed Black river early in the morning, going in the direction of the Wilmington & Weldon railroad. Every effort was made to capture the murderer. Parties were sent in pur suit and telegrams -were hurried off to Warsaw, Magnolia and Wil mington; but up to a late hour last night no trace of Johnson could be found. - He is a bright mulatto, small in stature, with a scar over one of his eyes; is married, and with his family lives on Mr. Theodore Sessoms' plantation near ivanhoe. He has been in Mr. Sessoms' employ for the past six years. PENSIONERS AND VETERANS- A Few Facts and Figures Belating to the Becent Encampment. Mr. J. R.

Altogether it is estimated that 750 to 800 veterans visited the camp. Of the pensioners, there were 64 with one leg; one had lost both legs. There were 83 who had lost an arm; thirteen who had lost both eyes. Serious Catting Affair. A cutting affray took place last night about 8 o'clock at J. Ot Nixon's store, on Seventh and Nixon streets.- Sam Bender alias Bennett did the cutting and Henry Bivens was the victim. Both men are colored. The affray grew out of a dispute over a watermelon. Ben der drew a knife or a razor and slashed Bivens on the left side of the face and neck cutting a fearful gash. Dr, Schonwald dressed the wound and the injured man ! was taken to his home Later in the evening Bender was arrested by police officers B. F. Turlington and E. T.

Procedinga of Begnlar Session The Hog Ordinance Amended Beporta from Committees, Etc. The Board of Alderman met yester day afternoon in regular monthly ses sion. Mayor Ricaud presiding, Alderman Post, from the Finance committee, reported in the matter of claim of Mr. - Turlington, late clerk of ront Street market, recommending that it be not allowed. The report, was on motion, adopted. Alderman Fishblate, from the Street and Wharves committee, reported that the heavy rains had washed some of the streets badly. The report of Chief of the Fire De partment was read showing two fires during the month with an aggregate loss of $81. The report was received and adopted. - Application of the Chief of the Fire Department for leave of. absence for two weeks during the month of August was granted on motion of Alderman Post. - Dr. Potter's report, as Superintendent of Health, was read, showing 41 deaths during the month, including two still births and one killed by lightning. The death-rate compared favorably with that of other months. Alderman Thomas said that a great deal had been said recently about the dirty conditions of the streets and he desired to state that in his "opinion the town had been kept in a cleaner condi tion the present summer than ever be fore; there was no ground for complaints and the criticism of newspapers on this subject. The Mayor said he was glad to hear this statement from the alderman. There had been many complaints made to him about the condition of the streets, some of which he knew were unfounded. He called atten tion to the factjthat the death rate of July, 1890, was 42 as against 41 for the same month this year, as shown by Dr. Pot ter's reports. . Application from Mr. B. F. Mills for a place on the police force was, on mo tion, referred to the Police Committee. A communication was read by the clerk from Mr. W. P. Oldham in which complaint was made that city carts de posited garbage within the city limits, thus attracting hogs from the countuy, and that these hogs are then picked up and impounded. Mr. Oldham argued that it was unfair that the city should toll hogs within the limits and ma k the owners suffer for it. If the city violated its own ordinance by de positing garbage within the city limits, it had no right to enforce a penalty against owners ot hogs, and had no right to send out its carts to the place where the garbage was placed and pick up country hogs that had been tempted to enter the city bounds. The Mayor said he had given in structions that the hogs in question should be released on the owners pay ing the nominal charge of 15 cents each, but the owners had refused to pay it and he had determined to lay the matter before the Board. After further discussion on motion of Alderman Post the ordinance-concerning hogs was amended, defining the limits within which they shall be taken up if found running at large; the said limits extending from the river to Twelfth streetand from Wooster street to Har nett. On motion of Alderman Walker the ordinance in regard to cows was amen ded, so as to allow the same limitation as for hogs. . The Committee on Lights, through Alderman Adrian, submitted reports, in relation to sundry petitions for lights, recommending that the same be not granted. The report and recommenda tion were adopted. Petition from the proprietor of The Orton, in behalf of Col. K. M. Murchi son, for permission to erect a small wooden building with metal roof on vacant lot on Princess street, adjoining the Star building, to hold an electric light plant for The Orton, was, on mo tion of Alderman Fowler, referred to the Fire Commission with power to act. Alderman Post, in regard to the tax levy, moved that the matter of reduc tion in the rate be referred to the Finance Committee, to ascertain what amount of reduction can be made and to report at the next regular meeting of the Board. The motion was adopted after being amended so that the meeting for report 6hould be called at an earlier date by the Mayor. - Alderman Fowler, for the Market committee, reported the bad condition Of Front street market house and the necessity of something being done at once to put it in proper order. It was stated that the Board of Audit and Finance had not refused to ap prove the appropriation recommended for Front street market, but desired to hold the matter in abeyance until the tax levy had been adjusted, The Mayor called attention to the condition of Ninth street beyond the W. & W. railroad crossing and spoke of the necessity ot permanent improve ment of that street. It would cost $600 WHOLE NO. 7,719 or more to cover the roadway with plank. . . A committee was appointed to select a new site for the city pound. Women's Auxiliary Y. M. C. A. The Women's Auxiliary to the Y. M, C. A. are to have a grand bazar in the early part of December to raise funds for furnishiner the new building:. It is suggested to all the ladies who are will ing to assist in so worthy an enterprise that they employ their leisure time in preparing for the fancy work depart ment such articles as will be suitable for Christmas presents and for general use.
