Walns, resal( mn ag nd gnashing of
tWasbiagton Star, April 19.]
At twenty minutes past 3 o'olook yes
terday afternoon the doorkeeper of the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing re
ceived orders to allow no one to enter,
and then preparations for the impend
ing executions, began in earnest. The
death lists were produced, and all the
employes were required to remain until
the sad work wps finished. The head
of each division was presented with the
names of the victims under his charge,
and also with the money necessary to
settle their claims for salaries up to date.
The scene was avery affecting one as the
roll was called, and each one signed his
or her name with trembling hands.
The sights presented were varied
however. The impending danger had
steeled the hearts of some to meet what
ever fate awaited them, but others
broke down completely; some received
their dismissals with a sort of stony de
spair, while others with loud cries and
sobs bewailed their fate. Some few put
on a defiant manner, and vowed to have
revenge for the iniustics done them.
One woman cried defiantly: "You don't
know who I am. I am President Hayes'
cousin, and I will make you suffer for
this unjust act." A poor widow, who
had lost husband, father and brother in
the late war, signed her named bravely,
but as she passed down the room her
pent up grief became uncontrollable,
and with tears streaming down her face
she wrung her hands and cried: "This,
then, is my reward for all I have sacri
ficed." Strong men, too, gave way to
their feelings as they thought of the dear
ones at home whom they would now be
unable to assist. One lady took the pen
to sign her name, but nearly fainted
and had to get a few minutes' rest and
composure before she could accomplish
the act. But it was. not those who met
their fate with hysterical sobs that suf
fered most. Many a poor woman whose
scanty earnings were the only barrier
from starvation for her family, passed
out without saying a word, but the
heart was almost broken. Of course,
those who escaped were overjoyed, but
the 1st of May threatens them like a
Damocles' sword. Many of those who
were discharged yesterday returned to
day with importunate entreaties for re
instatement, and the Secretary's office
was besieged by them.
TIIe NIEW YORK CARNIVAL,.
A Purely uslnesR Transaction.
S[. Y. Herald.] 0
It is at last a settled fact that New h
York is to have a carnival festival, and aL
May 15 has been finally fixed as the data g,
of the two processions. The alternatives ai
of success, failure and success that this ei
project has passed through since its d
first suggestion by Col. William St. a
Martin have tended rather to discourage rt
those who were at first enthusiastic 01
about it; but lately the matter has been n,
taken in hand by a number of active a,
business gentlemen, who have organized b
themselves into a society called "The t
Carnival Association of New York." ,
The society was incorporated on April o0
9, under the act of the Legislature of
May 12, 1875. Its constitution and rules
are somewhat similar to those of the o,
Liederkranz Society. In the certificate
of incorporation, which has the official
indorsement of the Hon. Charles Dono- P
hue, Justice of the Supreme Court, it is 1
stated that the objects of the associa
tion are "social, mutual benefit, patri
otic gymnastic, musical, dramatic and p1
lawful sporting purposes." The asso- V
elation is organized for twenty years.
Mr. Dam says that this enterprise was
undertaken on pure business principles. a
He considers that it will do much in re- U
viving trade in New York. Boston,
Philadelphia and Baltimore were year
by year encroaching upon the traffic of
the metropolis, and its mercantile com
munity were sitting idle and doing L
nothing to prevent it. A carnival, sucn
as is proposed and intended, will attract
great crowds of people from the sub
urbs, who will spend their money
here. Small business men, continu
ed Mr. Dam, see at once what a
great tenefit such a tbing would be to
this city. All the railroads and trans
portation lines have agreed to reduce
the fares to half price. If Cincinnati's
carnival could attract 100.000 people
from neighboring towns and villages.
this in New York ought to bring to
gether at least five times that number.
Each person's expenses and purchases
while here may average $10, and at that
rate they would leave in this city the n
enormous sum of $5,000,000. Such an
advantage as this could not fail to be
appreciated.
THE CELEBRATION.
The carnival celebration will be divid
ed into two parts. In the day time an
industrial procession, representing all
the-varied trades and industries of this
city, will take place, and in the evening
a grand allegorical and historical pa
geant will be given. Mr. Dam assured
the writer that it will be one of the
grandest events that New York has ever
witnessed.
FUTURE CELEBRATIONS.
It is intended to keep this up from
year to year and give New York a new
holiday. The Fourth of July coming
as it does, in the midst of the hot sea
son, when all the wealthy citizens are
out of town, will not possess the inter
est that the Carnival Day will have.
People within a radius of 100 miles of
a New York will look forward to that day
with pleasure. Business will be revived
and innocent amusement continued
t with profit.
A prominent gentleman has offered
| $500 for the privilege of being the King
of the Carnival, but his offer has not
| yet been accepted, as it is considered
that-there may be others who will be
willing to pay more for that honor. In
e New Orleans, one year, that position
was secured by a leading banker there
at the price of $8000.
S A BABY MURDER.
i Dudley Kimball, the Youngest Murderer
Son ecord.
[N, Y. Herald.]
BosToN, April 21.-A homicide most
Deculiar in the circumstances surround
Si[ng it, owing to the extreme youth of
the parties concerned, occurred this
1- afternoon on Holyoke street, at the
nlSouth End. The murderer was a little
t boy named Dudley Kimball, four years
s old, and the victim Stephen Cox, two
I years his senior. Both boys belong to
d families of respectability, living oppo
site each other on the street mentioned,
I the Kimballs being on the west side at
)- No. 26 and the Coxes at No. 23. It ap
)f pears from all the information gleaned
e that the two boys, with a large party of
children, early in the day were at play
-1 together, and that for some trivial cause
- they quarreled.
a The little Kimball boy, who is com
e monly called by his associates "Malor,"
Ssaid hew " 'fit him," meaning Drz;
but no uieubo a serelos nature oo
a rt t cbaon, bwhen both
and grle, wre wit them; and, wh e sa
the mo were playing in the garh
den, the Kimball and'y ox boys again
renewed the quarrel. During the chil- T
dren's war o' words that took place, ii
Joseph Cox, eight years old, a brother u
of the little fellow murdered, crossed
the street, and soon after joining his
brother Kimball said again in an angry
tone to little Stephen that he would tu
"fix him," and thereupon hastily en- u
tered his house. 11
It seems from what afterward trans
pired he went to get his father's re- 2
volver, with the cool determination of N
shooting young Cox. The pistol, it is
said, belonged to his father, John T. 11
Kimball, and yesterday was secreted by
a member of the family in order that the
young hopeful could not get it into his
possession. How he found the weapon 0
has not been learned, but it is supposed
that he became aware of its whereabouts
while overhauling things about the
house. On coming out of his parents'
dwelling he walked up to little Stephen
Cox, who was facing him but who had
not the least suspicion of his assailant's
intent. a
The Cox boy stood leaning on the e
fence which surrounds the gardens, and t
before he could move'a step young Kim- t
ball deliberately and coolly pointed the
muzzle of the revolver at his head and
fired. The ball entered the forehead, c
over the right eye and close to the
temple, penetrated the right lobe of the
brain and lodged in the back of the
skull. Young Cox fell bleeding against
the fence on whidh he was leaning, and
with the blood trickling from the wound
in his head, from which the brain also I
oozed, he soon became unconscious. I
His mother, who had been sitting at
the window, little imagining the terrible
tragedy that was being enacted almost I
before her eyes, had her attention at- e
tracted to the affair by seeing her boy
lying unconscious on the sidewalk, and
rushed frantically to the scene. On
reaching the child she learned the facts
and almost fainted.
The little follow was removed to his
house opposite, and Drs. Fuller, Leach
Reed, Stone, Sanders, Cheever and
Evans, and Doctoress A. E. Gilbert were
summoned at once. They did all in
their power, but the wound was fatal
and the little follow lived only a few
hours. The father, Matthew Cox, who
is a member of the firm of C. and M.
Cox & Co., No. 47 Pearl street, was also I
at once summoned, and upon reaching
the house he became almost frantic with
grief.
Directly after the shooting young I
Kimball went into his house, and upon
officers of station No. 5 calling upon
F his family to inquire into the affair, he
i appeared greatly frightened, it was
generally reported by the neighbors,
g among whom there was considerable
s excitement, that the shooting was acci
U dental, but there is no ground for such
a theory, as the statements of the child
s ren who witnessed the shooting and
J other evidence in the possession of Coro
1 ner Evans goes to show that the rash
9 act was premeditated by young Kim
i ball. Kimball's father is a member of
A the firm of John Kimball & Son, No. 52
Sedbury street. An inquest will be held
1 on Monday.
