he had absconded. Willi characteristic
promptness they knocked that very uight at
the door of Lawyer Turnley's private apart
meats, and had him to fix up the proper
papers to levy an attachment early next
morning. They then hunted up the Deputy

thus got ahead and secured the cash. Later

LVOV OK THI-] WHITE BOISE.
■Mitt It. K. Cleveland, the President’*
Sister, to be Mistress.
Albany, X. Y., Feb. 28.—President
elect Cleveland has completed the few
preparations which he deems necessary
f"r the social side of his forthcoming resi
d nee in Washington. His sister, Miss
U. K. Cleveland, will be the mistress of
the White House. She did not join th •
household in the Governor’s Mansion
here, but has been with him a great deal
since he retired to the Towner residence,
on his resignation of the Governorship.
It was with reluctance that she con
sented to go to Washington to take
charge ol the Presidential domicile.
She has been an earnest and in
dustrious woman, and never contem
plated a life of luxury, much less
one of conspicuous position before the
country. Bhe is as unnjue iu her way as
her brother is in his. though they are ap
parently not at all alike in general char
acter. Xor does she physically resemble
hint. She is of medium stature and build,
with a shapely and highly intellectual
face. She is good looking, but not pretty.
She dresses neatly, but plainly, and wears
few ornaments. She has for a long time
been a lecturer by profession, her speci
alty b“ing educational subjects, and her
audiences usually the pupils of girls’
schools. She has, for example, just
lectured at the Elmira Seminary,
on “Joan of Arc.” She speaks
several languages, is a constant
reader, is exceptionally well informed in
history and the arts, and has that degree
of confidence in herself and the knowledge
she possesses to tie able to firmly take the
lead in conversation, and to hold it against
the bright men and women who have
come in contact with her. Yet in some
respects she is notably shy, and always
so modest and amiable as to win friends
easily and quickly.
“Wby, she’s a perfect dictionary,” s tit!
ex-Gov. Cornell, when he returned’ from a
visit to Miss Cleveland, yesterday; “she’s
one of the brightest women I ever met.”
“And do you know,” remarked the ex-
Governor’s* vivacious wife, “she seemed
inclined to avoid promiscuous society in
Washington. I told her on no account to
do so. 1 informed her wltat Bled people
she would meet, how charming the social
atmosphere is there, if one only chooses
one’s own circle among the refined fami
lies; and 1 also assured her that she need
not lie doubtful about her ability to enter
tain, though I omitted the truth—there
are few women there so well fitted to
reign in the White House as she.”
T here seems to be no doubt that Miss
Cleveland's administration will not lack
distinctive qualities, for she is a strong
minded woman, accustomed to instruct
members of her sex, and with firmly
grounded notions generally.
As to the President-elect, there is an
equal certainty that he has made up his
mind to rival or excel Arthur in the po
liteness of his social administration. If
von call on him here, and have live i in
Washington, he unreservedly shows a
great interest in all that yom can tell him
about the capital. He has never seen the
White House, and he says very positively
that if you or your friends have any curi
osity to inspect it you had better do so
Immediately, for he’does not intend to
have it managed as a museum, to be en
tered bv anybody who will fee a servant
with a dollar. He has no objection to the
public exhibition of the state parlors
whenever they are not in use, but to have
his bedroom and the living apartments of
bis iamiiv thrown wide open to whoever
cares to see them he thinks must be un
pleasant for the occupants. He has al
ready ordered that the practice be discon
tinued as soon as he shall be insta'led.
In his life here in Albany, Cleveland Is
plain enough. He eats sparingly; his
cook is an ordinary servant, wittt no
French or other accomplishments. The
small and delicate Senator Evarts, whom
your correspondent happened to see in
close contrast with Cleveland during his.
call, swallows as much in one day as the
bulkier man does in three. YY hatever his
habits mav have been in Buffalo, he cer
tainly has not been known here as a con
vivial bachelor. He keeps a box of cigars
in his desk, and they constitute the only
refreshments commonly offered to visitors.
His predecessors, Dix. Tilden and Cor
nell, always had wine galore, but he abol
ished the closet for beverages.

WASHINGTON' ALL ASTIR.
CLEVELAND'S ARRIVAL EARLY
YESTE RDAY MORNING.
Arthur's Preparations for Removal from
the White House, and Arrival o the
President-Elect’s Baggage—Uortreous
ness of the Decorations and Illumina
tions.
Washington, .March 3.—At 7 o’clock
this morning, when the mists of the night
still clung around the Baltimore and l’o
tomac depot and but few persons were
stirring, the special train bearing the
President-elect and his party drew up on
the side track in the depot. The com
mittee of citizens appointed by Chairman
Corcoran to receive the President-elect
had been informed by him that he desired
to avoid a public reception, and would
prefer to receive a visit from the commit
tee at bis hotel. They were also iuformed
yesterday evening, by a member of the
Senate designated by Gov. Cleveland as a
medium of further communication, that
other and private arrangements had been
made for his comfortable reception at the
station and conveyance to the' hotel; but
nevertheless when the party arrived onlj
a few train hands and halt a dozen re
porters were present.
The President-elect was accompanied
by his brother, Rev. L. Cleveland, wife
and child, his sisters, Mrs. Hoyt anil Miss
Cleveland, liis niece, Miss Mary Hastiugs,
Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Manning, and
Col. Daniel Lainout, wife and
two children. After a delay
of about 10 miutes. Chairman
Hcrritt and Mr. Galt, of the Inauguration
Committee, put in an appearance, anil
were introduced to the President-elect.
Some 20 minutes were required to secure
carriages, and it was 7:50 o’clock before
the parly disembarked. Meanwhile the
news til the arrival ol the party bad
spread, and a crowd gathered around the
Pullman car “Maranou,” and stared hard
at the President-elect, who bore the scru
tiny with < quauimity. When the car
riages arrived the party alighted, anil
proceeded through the ladies’ waiting
room to the north entrance, the President
elect loading, with Chairman Berritt.
Mr. Cleveland wore a blue over
oat aud silk hat, and did not appear
at all fatigued by his night’s journey.
Carriages were taken and the party
proceeded to the Arlington hotel, w here
a hasty toilet was made, and breakfast
served.
THK SUB-COMMITTEE'S CALL.
The ue-committee, appointed by the in
auguration general reception committee
to welcome the President-elect to Wash
ington, called on him by appointment at
4p. m. this afternoon. ’ Their Chairman,
lion. Richard T. Merrick, after intro
ducing bis lellow iiu iiils'is, expressed tlie
welcome in a lew well chosen words, and
Gov. Cleveland felicitously returned his
acknowledgment. An informal conver
sation ensued for some little time, and the
committee then individually took their
1 ‘aves. The m *inhership of the commit
tee was as follows: Hon. Richard T.
Merrick, lion. Eppu llunton, Allan Mc-
Ldi.e. John E. Norris, John \V. Thomp
son, Wililiani Horatio King, Dr. Darnel B.

BUSTLE AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
The White House building and grounds
were crowded with visitors to-day. The
East Room, however, was the only room
open to sightseers. A policeman guarded
the stairway leading to the upper por
tions of the house, and allowed to pass
only those on official business. The Pres
ident was kept very busy during the day
signing acts ol Congress, and attending
to other official matters. The members of
.he Unitoil States supreme Court, headed
by Chiel Justice Waite, called just before
noon and took leave ot the President.
A meeting of the Cabinet was held at
noon and lasted about two hours. All
the members were present. The session
was devoted to clearing up all official
business requiring action during the
present administration. During the ses
sion a messenger brought a large hand
some floral cornucopia across which was
laid a beautiful horseshoe formed of rare
exotics. At 2:30 o’clock the President
received the members of the diplomatic
corps. All the legations were represented,
and it seemed as ii every diplomat in the
city improved the opportunity to take
oilieial leave ol the President.
While arrangements were teing made
for packing and removing the personal
' fleetsof tue President ami his family a
large express wagon drove up to the
main entrance, anti deposited a number
of trunks, boxes and parcels containing
the personal effects of President-elect
Cleveland and his private secretary.
They were taken into the house to be
cared for until President-elect Cleveland
takes up his residence there.
President Arthur’s effects will be re
moved to-morrow. After President Ar
thur has reviewed the procession he will
proceed direct to the residence of Secre
tary Frelinghuysen, whose guest he will
be for two or three weeks. His son and
daughter will accompany him. Mis Mc-
Elroy will be the guest of Mrs. John
Field, and Mrs. llaynesworth will be the
guest of Mrs. James A. Dumont, on Capi
tol Hill.
President-elect Cleveland called upon
President Arthur this afternoon.
CROWDS AROUND THE CAPITOL.
At 12 o'clock the corridors of the capi
tol were almost impassable. Dense
crowds surrounded every door of the gal
leries of ihe two houses,’ peering through
and awaiting the departure of the more
fortunate occupants of seats within.
They were composed for the most part ot
•well behaved and well dressed people,
and by far the larger pait wore overcoats
of army blue and a large percentage of
those in civilian dress were decorated
with sdken badges. Indicating member
ship of visiting organizations.
An extra session remained a possibility
and the subject was the one most-dis
cussed among the members and attaches
of Congress. The condition of business
was such that the appropriation bills
might be disposed ol within twelve hours,
yet the possibility remained that some
would not be passtd.
The great crowds of spectators had a
very inspiring effect upon the eloquence
of many of the members.
The weather to-day was beautiful and
the indications are favorable for a fair
day to-morrow.
At the close of business hours to-day
the principal officers of the Post Office
Department assembled in the Postmaster
General’s room to take leave ot Postmas
ter General Hatton. He thanked them
for their faithfulness.
In accordance with the usual custom,
the meuiliers of the Cabinet have placed
their resignations in the hands of Presi
dent Arthur.
ON A VA9T SCALE.
Everything connected with the inaugu
ration is on a vast scale. The committee
have measured the capacity ot Pennsyl
vania avenue, and they say they are ready
to provide for 175,000 spectators on the
broad sidewalks of that street, not to
speak of the stands, windows and roots.
There will be upward of 25,000 men in
line. There will be about 100 bands and
drum corps. Extra policemen are to be
sworn in by the hundred. Railroad man
agers are talking of passenger traffic in
six figures. The hotels have thousands of
extra cots, and engage special help in

l>ect to have 5,000 waltzers spinning at
once in the evening. The fireworks are to
be on an unparalleled scale. There are to
be thousands of poles, and thousands of
pounds of gunpowder arranged upon them,
in many designs, and to end up with 5.000
rockets’ are to be exploded simultaneous
ly. Even the thieves and pickpockets are
expected In large numbers, and an effort
will be made to meet them with propor
tionate attention. It will be a glorious
and patriotic spectacle, and it there are
100,000 visitors in town, and each leaves
$lO here on an average, it will be worth
$1,000,000 to the District.
THOUSANDS OF VISITORS.

fitteen minutes will be required for its de

ers ol the new President’s attitude upon
the important public questions of the day.
THE CITY BY NIGHT.
■Washington on the eve of the inaugura
tion day presents a scene of extraordi
nary activity, excitement and enthu
siasm. The fronts of all the buildings cn
Pennsylvania avenue are nearly concealed
bv flags, shields and festoons of bunting
sb that the street is almost walled in bv
tri-color drapery. The lanterns of the
street lamp posts have been removed and
instead of the single white light four
branches are substituted, surrounded by
colored globes. Electric lights blaze
on every corner, and along the pave
ments of the brilliantly illuminated streets
military organization in full uniform,
headed by tine bands and lighted by loco
motive headlights, are constantly passing
hack and forth through Pennsylvania
avenue and Fiiteenth street, on their way
to or from the headquarters of the Presi
dent-elect, and are greeted with cheers us
they wheel around the corners between
the throngs ot spectators. Companies of
State Militia, in plain and service
able blue, alternate with pictur
esque squads of zouaves in showy
red and white, and New York political
clubs, in long overcoats and silk hats, are
followed by the Flambeau Club, from To
peka, Kas., dressed in the spectral uni
form of unbroken white and carrying
peculiar pneumatic torches into whose
shnlts they blow at intervals, so as to
send up high, slender tongues ol naphtha
like flame.
A MULTITUDE OF BANDS.
Bands of all kinds are to be heard in
every direction, four or five sometimes
passing the Treasury Department to
gether, but in different directions and
playing different airs. Around the Ar
lington Hotel, where the President-elect
is staying, there has been a great throng
of people all the evening, watching the
arriving and departing troops and listen
ing to serenades which the bands play
under Mr. Cleveland’s windows. The
whole city seems even at this late hour of
the evening to 1.0 active and presents a
festive anil holiday appearance.
The strong rivalry between the great
Democrat!” lie lions in New Y’ork has
shown itseit licro in bold relief. Tam
many, w ith nearly 1,000 men, arrived last
night with the Bevemh Regiment Band,
and this evening the County Democracy
arrived with 1,200 men, beaded by Gil
more’s famous hand of about 100 instru
ments.
Among the well-known political clubs
who are helping to make the streets lively
to-night are the Cook County aud Iro
quois Clubs of Chicago, the Duckworth
of Cincinnati, Samuel J. Randall and
Am< ricus Clubs of Philadelphia, and the
Central Democratic Club ol Harrisburg,
l’a., all strong in numbers, good looks,
and good clothes.
CLEVELAND’S CALLERS.

lion Committee Mr. Cleveland continu* and

dined at the hotel. Among those who
called were Messrs. Hendricks, Vilas,
Secretary McCulloch, Daniel Manning,
Senator Gorman, Senator Garland, and
Gen. Phil. Sheridan,with three members of
his staff. Mr. Hendricks called about
noon, and had quite a long talk with Mr.
Cleveland. It was alter 8 o’clock when
Mr. Cleveland and Col. Lainont appeared
in the parlors after dinner, and from that
hour till 10 o’clock the President-elect
continued to receive callers, who were
admitted only after sending their cards.
He will leave the hotel to-morrow morn
ing a’ 11 o’clock for the White House ar.d
from there will be driven to the capitol.
Mr. Hendricks received a largi number
of callers at his rooms, at Willard’s Hotel,
to-day. In the evening he was serenaded
by several of the visiting organizations,
and in acknowledgment of one of these
compliments, tendered him by the Busch
Zouaves of St. Louis and the’ Flambeau
Club of Kansas, he said that he regarded
the demonstrations of to-day as “indorse
ments of the principles of pure and hon
est government.”
The special bulletin for inauguration
day for the District of Columbia says:
“Fair, pleasant and warmer weather
will prevail in the city of Washington
Wednesday.”

A Shocking Accident.
Atlanta, Ga., March 3.—Daniel N.
Bagby', an ex-Captain ot Atlanta’s police
force, who retired a few months ago
owing to continued bad health, died to
day. “Noon” Bagby, as be was popular
ly known, was much liked in the com
munity in which he lived, and while con
nected with the force made au excellent
officer. Death was caused trom consump
tion. During the life of the Tuller Base
Ball Club of Atlanta, which was a formi
dable organization in its day, the de
ceased was one of its best players.
Yesterday a rumor reached Atlanta that
Will Haralson, tor a long time connected
with the Wild Land Office, and a brother
of Librarian Frank Haralson, had been
seriously injured in a railroad accident in
Texas, in which he lost both
legs. The rumor met with
some doubt, as Librarian Haralson
upon being questioned knew nothing
about it. To-day, however, the rumor
was confirmed to the extent that YViil
Haralson had encounteied an accident in
Texas in a railroad accident, losing one leg
and having the other badly mutilated. The
best information is that the mutilated
limb will be saved. The particulars of
the accident are not given.
Gov. McDaniel is making extensive ar
rangements tor his trip to the New Or

DEATH OF WILLIAM H. HOWELL.
YVilliam H. Howell, a brother of Evan
J*. Howell, died to-night at the residence
of Evan Howell, in the YVest End, alter

cently was connected with the Agricul
tural Department of tne State, tilling the
position of Inspector of Fertilizers at
Savannah. Last summer he went to
Montana Territory and engaged in cattle
raising, where he remnined until the se
vere weather of this winter eaused him
to return to Atlanta. YYnile there he
contracted a severe cold which settled on
his lungs and brought on consumption,
which was the cause of his death. For
the past few days bis condition was real
ized as hopeless by his friends who called
to inquire alter his condition. The de
ceased was known all over the State, and
wherever known was greatly liked on ac
count of his many good traits of char
acter.

CABINET PPOBIBIUTJES.
LIST OF THE MEN WHO WILL
PROBABLY BE THE CHOICE.
The Nominations to b Sent to tlie
Senate To-morrow—Atkius’ Nomina
tion Hangs Fire and Goes Over to the
Next Congress—The Defeat of the
Subsidy Men.
Washington, March 3.— Cleveland’s
Cabinet will be nominated to the Senate
on Thursday. The best information at
tainable to-night is to the effect that the
following will be the nominations which
he will then make:
Secretary of State —Thomas F. Bayard.
Secretary of the Treasury —Daniel Man
ning.
Secretary of the Interior— L. Q. C.
Lamar.
Secretary of War— William Endicott.
Secretary of the Navy —William C.
Whitney.
Postmaster General —W. F. Vilas.
Attorney General —A. H. Garland.
Tne McDouald men here have made a
strong effort this evening to have Mr.
McDonald substituted for Mr. Vilas or
for Mr. Whitney. They claim that there
is still a possibility that this mav be the
outcome.
The friends of Patrick A. Coilins say
that he may yet be substituted for Mr.
Ei dicott as Secretary of War. Gentle
men of prominence wt’io have talked with
Mr. Cleveland this evening hold both the
McDonald and Collins theories. Never
theless, some of Mr. Cleveland’s most in
timate friends are responsible for the
statement that the President has chosen
the seven men first i*.lined to be his Cabi
net, and that this evening they met in his
rooms at the Arlington and listened to
his inaugural address. It is certain that
they all conterred with Mr. Cleveland this
evening.
ATKINS’ NOMINATION GOES OVER.
Tne nomination ot James Atkins to be
District Attorney for Northern Georgia
will go over. The facts presented were
sufficient to convince the Judiciary Com
mittee, without a formal argument, that
the nomination ought not to be confirmed.
It will not be reported at all.
Gen. A. R. Lawton is here. Mr. Cleve
land would have made him a member ot
his Cabinet it he could bavo arranged it.
THE “STAR’S” VIEWS.
The Evening Star to-night says that the
West has given up all hope of recognition
in the Cabinet. The best friends of Messrs.
Thurman and McDonald say that neither
has a chance to go into the Cabinet. They
say that they believe, though they regret
it, that two New York men will be among
the chosen, and that the administration
will, at the lirst glance, be open to the
criticism that it is made in the interest of
the East, while the West will be ignored.
This, they say, will be keenly felt by many
leading Democrats. It is believed that
Bayard, Whitney, Manning, Garland, La
mar anti Vilas are decided uiion. Messrs.
Endicott and McClellan are both here,
and the friends of each are opposing the
other, and each expects to get the War
Department. The chances are said to be
with Mr. Endicott, though the tight that
is being made against him may defeat
both, and another may be selected, proba
bly Mr. Collins.
DEFEAT OF THE SUBSIDY MEN.
The conspicuous feature of this after
noon’s proceedings in Congress was the
final defeat of the Pacific Mail subsidy
men. The House by a vote of 128 in favor
to 132 against refused formally and flatly
to agree to the Senate amendment carry
ing the $400,000 subsidy. The friends of
the subsidy staked all on this motion and
did not take their disappointment calmly.
The result of the vote was unexpected.
John Roach and all his lieutenants have
been hard at work for three days supple
menting the efforts of their representa
tives on the floor and in the lobby. They
expected success. The leader of the John
Roach forces on the floor was Hernando
DeSoto Money, of Mississippi, who has
been “mentioned” tor Postmaster Gen
eral. Ho is now being mentioned for First
Assistant Postmaster General.

A MACHINE OF DEATH.
Perfection : Contrivance for the Use of
Dynamiters.
Huntingdon, Pa., March 3.— Three
men, two of them names unknown, but
evidently a German and an American, the
third a Frenchman, giving the name ol
M. Faurnancl, who has but recently ar
rived from Paris, have lor several days
been experimenting in a secluded portion
of the Diamond Y’alley with machinery
for the more certain use of nitro-glycer
me and other highly explosive com
pounds.
The trio quietly took their departure
YVestward on the afternoon traiu. The
American had been here with a party in
December last, who at that time made
several tests ot a compound called nitro
petroline, hut on t his occasion neither he
nor the German could be induced to en
gage In conversation.
THE FRENCHMAN’S STATEMENT.
The Frenchman, however, in order to
secure necessary information, was obliged
to confide, though guardedly, in two or
three persons. He claimed to be the in
ventor of the machinery he was testing,
and when perfected wiil receive an im
mense sum of money for it from the Ni
hilists of Russia, the Internationals in
Germany and France, and the dynamiters
in America.
The contrivance consists ot a wick satu
rated with a highly inflammable wax and
coiled concentrically on a roller. It is
controlled by a spring, which, in turn, is
governed by clock-work gearing. The
part last unwound burns With a flash,
igniting the explosive, with which it com
municates. The time is controlled by the
length of the wick or fuse. The object is
now to regulate its burning, which has
been very nearly accomplished, as sev
eral very satisfactory explosions were sc
oured.
The American and the German are
agents of the societies that employ M.
Kaurnand and are to report upon the re
sults, They go from here to Pittsburg,
aud from there to Cincinnati and Chicago.
A It lIIY IN A GRIPSACK.
Tlie Burden a New Haven Expressman
(iivHi to Carry.
New Haven, Conn., March I.—YVhiie
Thomas Gibbs, u licensed expressman,
was standing in line with others of his
craft outside the Union Station in this
city about 8:30 last evening, he observed
a well-dressed man of medium height ap
proaching the line from the side of the
station. The stranger carried a large
valise. The expressman hailed him and
secured the job of carrying the valise to
No. 512 Elm street, and informing the
people living there that they might expect
the owner of the valise at 9:30 o’clock.
Gibbs was warned to handle the valise
with care as it contained glass. The
expressman took the valise, placed it be
side him in the wagon and hurried oft' to
the indicated part of Elm street, nearly
two miles from the station. He failed to
find any such number as 512. There are
no houses between Nos. 506 and 512. He
carted the valise back to the station and
left it In the baggage room. About half
an hour later sounds as of a baby crying
were heard to issue from the valise. " Po
liceman Bradley pried the valise open
and found that it contained, warmly clad
and moaning in its sleep, a pretty girl
baby about a week old. Beside the child
lay a quantity of clothing and a nursing
bottle full of milk. Tne police wagon
was called and the waif taken to the
almshouse. No clue as to the identity of
the patron of Expressman Gibbs has been
obtained.
Gibbs says he now remembers
that the stranger studiously
avoided going near enough to the
street lamp to allow anyone to get a
good look at his face. Just as the 9:10
train was leaving the station for New
York, an unknown man answering the
imperfect description given by Gibbs
rushed through tne station and across the
platform to the last car on the train. He
succeeded in catching it and swinging
himself aboard. The presumption is that
he had come from New York on the early
evening train, and that he took the first
train back. The child had evidently been
drugged to prevent its making an outcry
on its trip with Gibbs to Elui street. The
baby clothes in the valise were of the
costliest kind, but not knew. The child,
it it lives, will remain at the almshouse
until it is 2 years old, when it will be
taken to one of the orphan asylums or to
the County Home.
NOT SO GREEN AFTER ALU.
How a Good Samaritan was Frustrated
in His Friendly Design.
Passaic, March I.—Mr. Charles R. Y’an
Deuscn, the junior member of the firm of
J. S. Y’an Deusen & Son, wealthy whip
manufacturers of this city, relates an
amusing Incident of a recent business
trip to the metropolis. He was riding up
town ir a Broadway stage and when in
the vicinity of the Sinclair House he no
ticed a granger, with high-tide trousers,
carpet grip, cowhide boots, gaping mouth
and other concomitants of the delegate
from YV’ayback, making along the busy
thoroughfare.
“First-class bait for confidence men,”
soliloquized Mr. Y’an Deusen. The
thought had scarcely been expressed
when a fastidiously dressed stranger
tapped “Uncle Josh” upon the shoulder,
spoke a few words to him aud then moved
away, apparently apologizing for an al
leged mistake.
“I’ll save him,” said the goodSamaii
tan, as he hurriedly alighted lrom the
stage and approached the “bait.”
“i beg pardon,” began Mr. Y’an Deusen,
“but a man spoke to you just now—”
“Yaas!” ejaculated the bait as he
grabbed the good Samaritan and swung
him around until his head spun, “an’
you want to tell me all about the folks tu
hum. Fur two pins I'd slam vou through
that air buildin.’ Police! Police!”
Mr. Van Deusen was forced to beat a
hasty retreat.
A POU'DEK OAR BLOWN UP.
Ten Tons of Powder Exploded in a
Bail w iv Collision.
Elmira, N. Y., Feb. 28.—A car load of
powder exploded at 6:30 o’clock this even
ing on the Corning, Gowanesque and An
trim Railway. Two north-bound trains
from YVilliamsport to Corning were com
ing up the grade, three miles below Tioga,
when the forward train parted. The lo
comotive of the rear train crashed through
the caboose of the leading train and into a
car containing ten tons of powder. A
fearful explosion followed instantly,
and the engine and seventeen cars,
with their load of freight,
were blown to atoms. Con
ductor James Staple, of the leading sec
tion; engineer Husted, bis firemen and
conductor Cookall jumped when they saw
the crash was inevitable, and, knowing
of the powder on the traiu, threw them
selves flat in the ditches on either side of
the track. They escaped unharmed.
The concussion from the explosion was
felt in this city, dishes being shaken from
their places, windows rattled and general
consternation resulting. The frozen earth
was torn up to ailopth ot several feet and
the fragments strewn widely over the
fields and hillsides. The only trace of the
locomotive is a piece of the boiler found
across the river, a hundred rods away.

Colesis a tramp. He got in the habit of
going to the residence of Mrs. Eliza
Crompton, at Passaic bridge, and asking

prisoned him. Her husband could not
stop her. She took the tramp fruit and
flowers. YVhen Coles was tried Mrs.
Crompton sat in court constantly. She
followed the prisoner daily to his cell.
The other day Coles was sentenced to two
years in State prison. Mrs. Crompton
wept and followed the tramp again to the
cel), despite the jeers of the spectators.

her frequently, and has arranged to come
here and visit him in prison at least once
a month.

CONGRESS’ LONG SIEGE.
BOTH BRANCHES PUT IN AN
OTHER NIGHT’S WORK.
Conference Committees on the Disputed
Appropriation Bills Trying to Agree on
the Points at I sane—The Chances of an
Extra Session Still Uncertain.
YVashington, March 3.— The Senate
was called to order at 9 o’clock this morn
ing. A quorum not being present, Mr.
Dawes moved a call of the roll. The call
showed twenty-five Senators present, be
ing fourteen short of a quorum. At 9:50
o’clock the Chair declared a quorum
present.
Mr. Dawes called up the conference report
on the Indian appropriation bill. The two
Houses, he said, had agreed on the bill so tar
as all items properly pertaining to the ap
propriation bill were concerned. The Senate
had struck out all items of general legisla
tion and all items of depredation claims.
Upon those, however, the House insisted.
Since the bill was passed, Mr. Dawes, added,
the Senate teemed to have weakened on its
position as to general legislation Some pro
visions of the Indian appropriation bill were
open violations of our treaty obligations, as
well as unconsiitutional.
Mr. Sherman said that if the Benate re
garded the House legislation as wise, the
Senate rule shout t not interfere with it. if
unwise and unsound the Senate should not
recede, no matter what Ihe consequences.
< fter further discussion in order to bring the
question to a point and get an understanding
of the Senate, Mr. Dawes moved, though he
said that he would vote agaiust his owu
motion, that the Senate recede as lo the pro
vision of the bill relatiug to legal jurisdiction
and procedure in the case of crimes commu
ted by Indians. The Senate refused to recede
by 4 yeas to 47 nays.
A message from the House of Representa
tives announced a disagreement with tlie
Senate on the sundry civil hi 1. The Senate,
on motion of Mr. Dawes, insisted on its
amendment, and ihe Chair appointed as a
conference committee Messrs. Allison, Hate
and lkck.
THE INDIAN TROUBLES.
Mr. Dawes explained the remaining differ
ences on tne Indian bill to he Ihe provision
prohibiting the carrying of wluskv into the
Indian Territory, tliai disarming the lndiars,
and that relating to the Oklahoma Territory.
These, Mr. Dawes added, were good provis
ions, but were at present in such form on the
bill as to do more harm than good.
Pen ling < oqsiilcration of this matter Mr.
Conger, at It o’cloek. moved that when the
Senate adjourn to-day, the legislative day be
ing March 2 until noon to-day, it lie to meet
at 1 o’clock on March 3, this afternoon. This
was agreed to.
Mr. Sherman explained that an erroneous
impression seemed to prevail that the com
mittee of arrangements appointed by the
Senate to take cnarge of tlie inaugural cere
monies had, with respect to the conduct of
Ihe coming inaugural, departed from the old
established rule. lie (Mr. Sherman) had had
ad the old programmes looked up, and he
could positively stale that not only h id the
House of Representatives not been discrimi
nated agaii.s*, but that in the present instance
tlie precedents bad been somewhat departed
from in favor of members of the House. He
(Mr. Sherman) would be very s rry that any
want of consideration should he shown to the
House of Representatives. He read the pro
gramme of 1845 to show that in old practice
the H us of Representatives was not rerog
ni/.ed at all.
Mr. Hawley read the programme of Presi
dent I Indian aii’s inauguration to show greater
consideration shown now tiian had been
shown then for the House of Representatives.
THK MATTER DROPPED.
Mr. Frye objected to further discussion of
this subject, and it was allowed to drop.
Tlie Indian conference report was again
taken tip Mr. Dawes moved that the Senate
in ist on the remaining amendments.
Mr. Mauderson moved that the Senate re
cede us to Ihe amendment exlending the time
for the payment for Indian lands.
Mr. Van Wyck satirically said that the
Senate could not agree to the legislative provis
ions on an appropriation bill when put on by
tlie House, but could itself put on a bill a Pa
cific mail subsidy clause when it siw lit.
John Roach, Jay Gould and C. P. < until) ,-
ton had been defeated on the other end of the
capitol, but had demanded that the Senate
should violate its own rule*.
Mr. Van Wyck supported Mr. Manderson’s
motion. Being the motion to recede it had
precedence, and was put first.
The Senate by a vote of 3 to 33 refused to
recede.
A further conference was appointed on the
Indian appropriation bill.
Mr. Allison submitted the conference re
port on the general pension bill. No action
was taken on it for the present.
The Committee on Appropriations submit
ted the deficiency appropriation hills. It is
the last of the appiopriation bills before the
Senate Committee on Appropriations. It
comprises over 95 pages, and appropriates
si,dll, 133 more than the bill as it passed the
House.
At 1 o’clock Monday’s session was formally
adjourned and Tuesday’s session begun, the
Senators not. leaving their seats.
On motion of Mr. lt ddleberger the bill re
moving the political disabilities of W. 11.
Murdaugh, of Virginia, was passed.
The general deficiency bill was then pro
ceeded with.
On motion of Mr. Miller, of New York, an
item of SIOO,OOO was added to the bil to com
plete the pedestal of the Bartholdi statue of
liberty in New York harbor.
A number of other amendments were
added, none of which were of interest, and
the bill passed.
The fortifications bill was then taken up
and passed with but few amendments.
At 7:20 o’clock the Senate went into execu
tive session.
At 7 :‘H o’clock the doors were reopened and
the Senate took a recess until 9 o’clock to
night.
The Senate after the recess reconvened at 9
o’clock and passed several relief bills.
The river and harbor bill was taken up as
passed by the House. It appropriated $5,000.-
COO in gross. As proposed by the Senate com
mittee to be amended it appropriates $lO,-
000,000.
Pending debate on the river and harbor bill,
Mr. Pendleton offered the following resolu
tion, for which he asked quick consideration:
Retoleed, That the thanks of the Senate are
due and are hereby tendered to lion. George
K Edmunds, front Vermont, for the courte
ous, impartial and able manner in which he
has presided over its deliberalions.
The resolution was unanimously agreed 10.
Consideration of the river and baibor bill
was resumed only to be again interrupted by
the new conference report on the Indian ap
propriation bill. The only remaining point of
difference, Mr. Dawes said, was the provision
relating to the Oklahoma lands The H use
provision had an arrangement for negotia
tions looking to an abandonment of the
Indian title, but not prohibiting set
tlement of the lands meanwhile by
raiders. lie could not understand wby
the House was not willing to keep people
off the lands. If the negotiation provided for
should be successful, there would be land left
for the honest settler.
Mr. Vest, in moving that the Senate recede
from its position, said that if we did not take
the House provision, and if nothing was done,
the old difficulty would be perpetuated and
made worse bv lapse of time. Sir. Vent’s mo
tion was agreed to, and the Senate receded
from its position.
The river and harbor bill tided up the time
between the conference reports.
On motion of Sir. Vest the Senate took up
nd passed tile bill providing for the adoption
by American ships of the international regu
lations f r preventing collisions at sea.
Sir. Dawes submitted the new conference
report on the fortification bill showing the
adjustment of all differences.
On motion of Sir. Pendleton the House bill
for the return of the Chinese indemnity fund
was taken up and pasted without debate.
On notion of Mr. Mitchell the Senate then
proceeded to consider the House pension bills
ravorably reported from the Senate com
mittee.
The pension bills having been disposed of
the Senate, on motion of Sir. Hawley, passed
the House bill providing for the retirement of
Henry J. Hunt as Major General of the
l!n ted States army.
On motion of Mr. McMillan, the Senate
passed the House bill to amend section 764 of
the itevised statutes so as to allow appeals to
the United States Supreme Court in habeas
corpus cases.
THE DISAGREEMENTS.
Washington, Slarch 4, 3 a. m. —Mr. Allison
from the committee of conference on the sun
dry bill, submitted a report showing that all
the amendments of the Senate relating to
public buildings, with only minor exceptions
had been disagreed to by the House. There
was also a disagreement to the Mexican
boundary survev and propositions looking to
the sale of public property. Most of the other
matters in dispute, he said, had been ad
justed. He moved that the Senate further
insist on its amendments. The motion was
agreed to. The Chair reappointed Messrs.
Allison, Hale and Beck as the conference com
mittee.
IN THE HOUSE.
After last night’s press report closed the
House diligently proceeded to do nothing
while waiting for the sundry civil bill to come
over from the Senate. At 2 o’clock a recess ot
half an hour was taken. During this period
the few members present proceeded to enjoy
themselves, which they did by lolling lazily
back in their seats, cigar in month and feet
on desk, and giving vent to their patriotic
sentiments by bursting forth into song.
••Dixie.” "Star Spangled Banner,” “John
Brown’s Body,” “Y'ankee Doodle” and "Hail
Columbia” followed each other in quick suc
cession, and then, becoming more sentimental,
the gentlemen expressed their admiration for
"The Old Folks at Home,” and informed each
other in musical accents that "There’s a land
that is fairer than day.” At 2:30 o’clock the
House was called to order, and at 3:55 took a
recess until 9 o’clock this morning.
There were hardly a dozen members in the
hall when the session was resumed at 9o’clock.
The sundry civil bill had in the meantime
come over from the Senate heavily loaded
with amendments.
Mr. Randall asked unanimous consent that
thi- bill be taken up, and the Senate amend
ments non-coneurred in and sent to a confer
ence committee, hut objection came from Mr.
Hepburn and then there was a call of the
House, which clo.mg at 9:30 o’clock, showed
the presence of only 45 members.
Mr. Raudall’s motion was then renewed and
agreed to, and Messrs. Randall, Forney and
Ryan were appointed conferees on the part of
the House.
After various ineffectual attempts to have
bills t ken up by unanimous consent, and it
being plainly impossible to have any public
business transacted, the House at 10 o’clock
adjourned till U.
When the House reconvened at 11 o’clock
the Speaker announced that, owing to the
continued session of the House from 11
o’clock yesterday morning to almost 4 o’clock
this morning, the journal was not prepared
and its reading was temporarily dispensed
with.
THE CONTESTED ELECTION CASE.
Mr. Valentine immediately moved that the
House take a recess until 10 o’clock to-night,
his object being to prevent consideration of
tbe contested election case of Frederick vs.
Wilson, of lowa.
The Republicans refrained from voting on
the motion for a recess, and left the House
without a quorum.
N'o attempt was made to transact any ousi
ness until Mr. Townshend submitted the re
port of the conference committee on the post
office appropriation bill announcing continued
disagreement. Mr. Townshend stated that
there were several points of difference be
tween the two houses, the most important of
which was on the Senate amendment relatiug
to the ocean mail service. He was opposed to
this because be regarded it in the light of a
sutisidy proposition and becau e it entrusted
dangerous power to the Postmaster General.
Pending debate the Speaker laid before the
House a communication from G. H. Craig.
Represent tive from tne Fourth Alabama
district, stating that he had forwarded to the
Governor of that State his resignation, to
take effect at midday on March 3. The com
munication was laid on the table.
After a long debate the Uouse refused, by a
vote of 133 yeas to 132 nays, to concur in the
Senate amendment to the post oflic ■ i-ppro
priaiion bdl relative to oceau mail transpor
tation. The remaining amendments were
concurred in.
The conference committee on the Indian
appropriation bill reported a disagreement
on some of the disputed amendments, and a
further conference was ordered.
The conference report ou the pension ap
propriation bill was adopted. The House
recedes from its disagreement to all the
Senate amendments, aud, as finally agreed
to, the bill appropriates sfio,ooo,coo.
The House then, at 5:15 o’clock, took a
recess till 7.30 o’clock this evening.
Upon reconvening numerous motions to
take a recess were made to again prevent
consideration of the election cases. Tlie point
of no quorum was raised.
Mr. Robinson, of New York, made an ap
peal, “ns the last word he would ever say iu
Washington,” asking the House to make a
donation of any amount to Miss Micklcham,
a granddaughter of Jefferson, and requested
unanim us consent for the passage of the hill
making an appropriation for that purpose.
Mr. nammoud, of Georgia, objected.
THK DEFICIENCY APPROPRIATION BILL.
At 10:30 o’clock the deficiency appropria
tion bill was received from the Senate. The
Senate amendments were lion-concurred in,
and Messrs. Iturnes, Randall and Long were
appointed conferees.
Time dragged along slowly, tlie monotonous
voice of the Clerk enunciating the names of
the members beiug only varied i*y the mem
bers themselves passing lazily between the
tel ers as the question of “no quorum” was
raised uuoti various dilatory motions. Tired
out from the long session of last night, the
Representatives took no interest in the pro
ceedings, rarely voting, but leaning back in
the chairs, smoking and amusing themselves.
At midnight the condition of the appropria
tion bills was as follows:
The legislative was all agreed to except the
proviiion for clerks to Senators.
The sundry civil bill was agreed to except
the provisions lor public buildings.
The post office bill had just been reported to
tbe House, with non-coneurri nee in respect to
the so-called ocean subsidy clause.
The conferee, were at work on the naval
hill.
The Indian bill only lacked concurrence
upon the Oklahoma provision.
The fortifications and deficiency-bills had
passed both Houses but bad not yet gor.e to
conference. An extra session remained a
possibility but was nut probable. Should the
deficiency lull alone be left, and that was the
one which was in the mo,t danger, it was not
thought that an extra se-sion would be called
for it. The deficiency bill appropriates f4,- 00.-
000 lor carrying on certain public functions
during the remainder of the fiscal year, aud a
way may probably be found to tide over the
interval ti 1 the next regular session.
The prospect at present is that the House
will remain iu session till early in the morn
ing. It is now discussing the conference re
port ou the post office appropriation bill, and
it is probably the opinion of inuny that should
the llou e insist upon its disagreement to the
Senate amendment relative to ocean mail
transportation an extru session is unavoida
ble.
The House adopted the conference report
on the fortification appropriation bill.
The post office bill is still under considera
tion.
THE INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILL.
Washington, March 4,3 A. m.—At 12:30
o’clock the conference report on the Indian
appropriation bill was submitted and agreed
to.
STILL IN SESSION.
Washington, March 4,3:15 a. h.—At this
hour both Houses are In session,with no pros
pect of immediate adjournment.
AN HEIRESS TO MILLIONS.
The Y'at Fortune that Awaits Mrs.
Leopold Guwprich,of New York.
New York, March 1.-Mrs. Leopold
Gumprich, of 234 East Seventy-9ixth
street, whose husband is a commercial
traveler ot middle age, is heiress to a vast
English fortune. Gumprich married his
wife 20 years ago, alter overcoming with
difficulty the objections of her parents,
respectable people of Carlsruhe, Ger
many, where the courtship was carried
on. In the wite’s family there was a tra
dition of a rich “Aunt Rosalie” living in
England. It now appears from papers
certified to by Count Herbert Bismarck,
while Secretary of the German Legation
in London, that the heirs ol one Rosalie
Levi are entitled to a fortune variously
estimated at from $50,000,000 to $75,000,-
000. That Mrs. Leopold Gumprich is
one oi these fortunate heirs, and will
sooner or later come into a property of
between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 there
seems to be no doubt.
Toward the close of tbe last century
Rosalie YV’eil, a professional nurse, went
trom Germany to Italy, and there met a
wealthy English Hebrew named Jesua
Levi, who, being in bad health, married
her in order to have somebody to take care
of him. He died a few years later, leav
ing his entire fortune to his wife. In 1803
Mrs. Levi died, and the English Court ol
Chancery took charge of her property and
deposited tbe money, which then amounted
to $2,000,00*1, in the Bank of England. By
the natural increase from interest this
sum has now reached the enormous fig
ures above given. Recently the Court ot
Chancery, impressed by the magnitude of
the sum, has. ol its own volition, stirred
about to find the rightful claimants, and
it seems now but a question of a few
months before the property is divided
among those to whom it belongs. Mrs.
Levi had no sisters and but one brother—
Hirsch YVeil, who Jeft but one daughter.
Her name was Lea Weil, and she married
Emanuel Frank. They bad nine children.
AU of these nine children married and
left issue with the exception of one
daughter, who is now over 80 years of
age. Mrs. Gumprich is the daughter of
one of these nine children. Her share
will be at least $1,500,000, and it may be
vastly greater.
Sexton Stopped.
London, March 3.—ln the House of
Commons this evening Thomas .Sexton,
Home Rule member for Sligo, asked per
mission to move the adjournment of tbe
House till he could call attention to Mr.
O'Brien’s suspension. The Speaker
stopped Mr. Sexton and told him that it
he wished to impugn the Speaker’s con
duct he must make a motion to that j
effect; tbe Chair could not allow any such j
motion as that just made for an adjourn
ment to be put. [Loud cheers.] Mr.
Sexton appealed to Premier Gladstone to
allow discussion upon the motion to ad
journ. Premier Gladstone said that there
was nothing in Mr. Sexton’s motion en
titling the mover to any special facilities.
The debate upon the redistribution of
seats bill was then resumed.
The Exposition.
New Orleans, March S.—The Exhibi
tors Association voted to-day to assist the
management in preparing elaborate cere
monies for the proposed manufacturers
day. The saw mills building, 600 leet
long, has been connected by pipes with
the battery of boilers in the rear of the
main building, and all the mills are now
in operation. The railway car u-ed by
the Fishery Commission has been placed
in the park. In the car and in the gov
ernment building fish are hatehed in
streams of running water. Fish are be
ing supplied to lakes and ponds by the
commission. The park is green and flow
ers are in bloom. The open air attend
ance is good and the prospects for the suc
cess of the exposition are bright.
Suspension of an Auditor.
Des Moines, la., March 3.—Gov. Sher
man late this afternoon served notice on
Auditor Brown suspending him from
office, and appointing J. W. Cottrell,
formerly Auditor ot the State, Auditor
pro tem. The notice states that the sus
pension is made because of Mr. Brown’s
failure and refusal to account for certain
moneys and property of the State en
trusted to him as Auditor. Mr. Cottrell,
who had filed bis hood, accompanied the
officer serving the notice, ready to take
possession of the office, but Mr. Brown
refused to surrender the office or books
and papers.

thur to-day ordered a general court-mar
tial to convene in the city of Vv ashington
on March 11 for the trial of Brig. Gen. W.
B. Hazen, Chief Signal Officer of the army,
on charges of conduct prejudicial to good
order and military discipline in having
officially and publicly criticized the ac
tion of the Secretary of War for not tol
lowing the recommendation to send an
expedition to the relief of Lieut. Greely in
September, 1883.

Baptized lu Icy Water.
Philadelphia, March I.—A special
dispatch to the Timex from Reading,
Penn., says: ‘‘The uovel ceremony of a
public baptism In the icy waters of the
Schuylkill river took place here to-day.
The Mennonite Brethren in Christ is the
name of anew denomination which has
recently started up in alt the small towns
in Eastern Pennsylvania. Converts are
not members of the church until they are
publicly baptized. This must be done
immediately after religion is ‘jxperi
enced.’ This afternoon was cold and it
was raining hard, but a lar. e crowd of
people turned out under umbrellas to
witness the ceremony. At 3 o’clock the
converts arrived, singing songs. The
men were in their stocking feet, going
manfully through the slush and snow.
There were four men and two women.
The Rev. W. B. Mvsselman, the pastor,
wailed in and sounded the depth ot the
water with a long polo. He then bade the
faithful to follow him, and they waded in
to their armpits. With the words, ‘Upon
the profession of your faith, I baptize you
in the name of the Father, Son and Holy
Ghost,’ he dipped each backward, held
them in the water for a moment, and
then brought them up again. One of the
men became ‘happy’ in the water, and the
pastor had quite a'struggle with him to
get him out. While the people were in
the water large cakes ot ice were floating
round about them iu every direction.
These people say they never experience
any ill effects from their ducking, be
cause God takes care of them. They
stood on the shore singing songs until
their clothing was frozen stiff. Frequent
ly the ice has to be cut away with axes
before they can get into the water. The
church, although of recent origin, has
branches in many counties of Eastern
Pennsylvania.”
Dying of Hydrophobia.
New Orleans, March 2.— James Reed
died in this city this morning of hydro
phobia, alter suffering terrible agonies.
About ten months ago he was bitten by a
small dog in the fleshy part of the left
hand, just below and between the thumb
and index finger. The wound was about
a quarter oi an inch deep, bled prolusely,
and healed in nine days. Instead of hav
ing the wound cauterized or attended by
a physician, Reed saturated it with tur
pentine, and, as it healed, he paid no
more attention to it. He was taken sick
on Thursday. His disease first showed
itself when he was endeavoring to wash
bis hands, which he found it impossible
to do. The characteristics of the malady
were more like delirium tremens than
hydrophobia, the sick man insisting that
he was being devoured by dogs and
snakes. It was found necessary to chain
him to the bed yesterday, when he became
very violent. Convulsion after convulsion
followed each other until he expired of
exhaustion.
