Messengers Just Arrived Roy Cordon Held Khartoum 81s Dnys Ago—Par liament Soonlto be Dissolved —Dynamite Threats. [RLSeKATHID TO THI ASSOCIATED raise.] London, February 14.—The Standard this alternoon publishes a dispatch from its correspondent *t Kortl, stating that a messenger juit arrived at Korti declares that Khartoum hes not been captured by the Ushdi. Xu* messenger, the corres* pendent says, asserts that he left Khar toum six days after Col. Sir Charles Wil son appeared before the city In the boats sent from Gubat, and that when he (the messenger) left Qen. Gordon still held Khartoum. The government officials do not believe the messenger's story, slid state that no official information confirm atory of it has be-n received. Another dispatch from Korti states that messengers wno have arrived there from Khartonm profess ignorance regarding the fall of Khartoum or of the death of Gor don. The Mudir of Dongola refuses to credit the reports conrern ug the capture of Khartoum by the Ushdi and the mas sacre of Gordon and the garrison under his command. The authorities here an nounce this afternoon that they do not be lieve the messengers' statements rest on a satisfactory basis. Kobti, February It—Messengers have arrived here from Khartoum. Tney were six days on the journey. The news they bring of recent events at Khartonm baa not yet been made known. STILL CLINGS TO HOPE. London, February 14.—Tne Times atilt dings to the hope that General Gordon is alive. It thinks the saddle-bag document was possibly a ruse made nee of in the hope of preventing the British advance upon Khartoum by making it appear that It was then too late to rescue Gordon. The Times asks: "If Gordon has been killed and Khartoum captured, why did theMahdi not let Colonel Wilson land there and massacre him and bis party?" DYNAMITE THREATS. The authorities have again received let ters containing warnings that 8L Paul’s Cathedral and the Bsnk of Kngland are to be attacked with dynamite. Detectives Boper and Wilson, two of the government's principal witnesses against Cunningham and BurtoD, are annoyed by the frequent reception of threats against their lives. Recently theso threats have bsen written on paper stamped with a skull and cross bones and apparently leaned by some mur derous orginlzstlon. Detective Roper has received a letter advising him to order his coIBd, and assuring him that be would “meet hla fate” before next Monday. A COUNCIL Or WAR. At a council of war held to-day at the war office. R was resolved to h crease the Indian contingent to be dispatched to the WANTS TO REMOVE CLEVELAND. A Lunatlo nt Large With Ideas of Assas sination Is Taken In Charge. 6t. Louis, February 11.—Wm. Ray, an escaped lunatic from [Seneca Falls, N. Y., was arrested here to-day tor threatening to remove President Cleveland. He entered the office of the health depart ment and Introduced himself Dr. William Ray, and entered into a discussion with Dr. Dorsett regard ing the conduct of insane asylums and the treatment cf tho Insane. He suddenly paused in the midst of an argument, said that Cleveland ought to be removed, and that he had been (elected by divine power to do the removing. Dr. Dorsett agreed to this proposition, whereupon the medi cal expert drew bis chair up close and pro ceeded in a confidential unuertone: “Yes; we are agreed that be ought to be removed, but the question is, how? I've studied the question np. I've got it down to a fine poluL I have been to Washing ton and am acquainted with every inch of the ground. There are several differ ent ways, but any one of them would do. Now, supposing ho waa walking down the steps of the White House.

I've thought about the depot Dlan, bnt don’t like it as well as my other plans, for I don't believe I could escape no easily from the depot. Now if you would let me know which you think the beat way to remove him.” The man's eyes flashed and Ilia whole ap pearance underwent a change. Ur. Dor- aett, ass soon as possible, summoned the police, and the dangerous crank was ar rested. When searched a long sheath knife waa found upon hla person. He was locked np and an Investigation showed he had recently escaped from the asylum at Seneca Fain, N. Y. The Storm Hears and Very Widely Extended.

New York, Februrry 13.—Speaking ol the iron trade, the Evening Past this after noon says: “It any one doubts that the mercantile and industrial Interests of the United Sla'es have been steadily tecovering for the last two months, the continued resumption of work in more and more Iron-worklDg estab lishments from month to month ought to dispel his doubts. An instance in point is the telegraphic reports from Troy, N. Y-, of yeste- dsy, saying that all the nail and Iron works that have heretofore resumed were working up to their fall capacity, and that this week three other iron works, employing about 1600 men, would also resame work. In the last month not less than fifty inch es- tabliihmenta in various parts ol the conn try, employing probably 30,000 men, have started np. The lower prices for anthra cite coal in the last two months havs been an important factor in encouraging the re sumption of work In iron in the Northern Atlantic States. In view of the compe tition of the cheaper Southern iron from Alabama, and the competition of the bituminous coal of the West, tbs pros pects are that this lower rtDge of prices for coal and iron moat be to some degree permanent. In short, we have started into a new era in the iron indnstry, in which the importation of foreign iron will contlnneto diminish with the result of contributing largely to continue the balance of trade Tn our favor, and thus bring us gold from abroad instead of Iron.” A TWO DAYS' TRANCE.

Beach was hanged here to-dey for the mnrder of his wife on April 7, last. He was perfectly cool, slept well last night and ate a hearty breakfeast and dinner. The time for tbe execution was set at 1:30 p. in. on account ot an expressed wish of the culprit that he would take dinner be fore being hanged. Hla neck was broken by the fall. All tbe prisoners of the jail were admitted to the yard to witness the execution. Little Rock, Febrnary 12.—Elijah Parker, who mnrdered Lewis Fox In De cember, and Host Johnson, who murdered John C. Wall in Au<n«t, were banged here to day. On tbe scaffold Johnson declared that he was innocent. Philadelphia, Fenrnary 12.—Richard Tronke was hanged in the corridor of tbe county prison here at 10:20 this (timing for tbe murder of Augusta Zhnm, ills friend's wife and his own paramour.

The Insane Wards Entirely Destroyed— Twenty-eight Patients ore Burned. |TELEGRAPHED TO THS ASSOCIATED FRESS.j Philadelphia, Pa.,‘Febrnary 13.—The fire last night at the almshouse entirely de stroyed that portion Of the institution set apart for the insane. Of the 031 lnnatlcs confined there many are missing, but it is thought most of them wandered away. At 9 o'clock ibis morning two more charred bodies were found in ward No. 2. They had been roasted beyond all recog nition. Several human forms can be seen in the burning wreck in tbe cellar. It is now thoneht lhat twenty-eight o( the in mates perished. That number of violent patients were locked In cells on tbe third floor and could not be reached. Eight have been taken out dead and the others are not acconnted for. There seems no doubt that they are lost among tbe mins. During tbs night many insane persons were found wandering in different pans of the city, some nearly naked. The poor creatures generally seem unable to understand the situation, and In some oases begged pit eously not to throw them in the river. Others seemed to take it as a grand joke, nnd laughed gleefully when the subject of fire was mentioned. Another c»me Hying down South street early this morning witli a manacle attached to his wrist and n few links of chain dangling from it. He shout ed and laughed as he struck right and left among the frightened penple. It was found necessary to use v'olence and Knock him down before he could be secured. An other madman caused n panic in a street car by rnsbing in half clad and with his face scorched and blackened. He sank cow ering in a corner, and it was soon found that he was more frigitened than those who had run away. Reports that the streets were fall of maniacs caused much alarm in West Phil adelphia, and strangers look npon each other with much distrust. The firemen are still at work on the rains. They are weary and half frozen, each man's helmet and coat appearing as bard as armor, but their searcb Is contin ued steadily. There appears to have been a great deal of unnecessary trouble caused by rotten hose and scarcity of water. To remedy the latter failing a dozen brawny firemen chopped a hole in the thick ice on the Schuylkill river,bnt when the hose was introduced mad and grinding bits of ice split the leather, and their attempt was a failure. Tbe confusion (boat the ruins, the craftiness of the insane people in secreting themselves, the promlscuoas manner in which they are being cared ior, and tbe utter weariness of those who have had them in charge prevent an accnrate esti mate being made of the losa of life and property. A POOR HOUSE BURNED, And Nineteen or tne Insane Ocouonnts Burned! [telegraphed to tub associated press.] Philadelphia, February 12 —A fire broke out In the insane department of the conntry almshouse in West Philadelphia about 9 o'clock to-nigbt. The flames spread rapidly and before the 300 inmates could be released nineteen of them were burned to death. Tbe others were left to roam about the grounds at will, and many ot them were picked up by the police throughout tne city. The bnildings are (at 11 o'clock) still bjrning. and tbe other departments are in great danger. Mlae Eva Mackny Married to Prince Co- lonna In Parle Yesterday. Pabis, February 12.—All the beat people of Paris have for weeks been on the tiptoe of expectation about Miss Msckay's pros pective wedding. It is not often the daughter of a poor American physician becomes the step-daughter of an enor mously rich millionaire and finds for a husband a prince of one of the oldest families of Italy. This baa been Miss Msckay’s envied fortune, and naturally enough the numerous friends and ad mirers of both the American and Roman branches of the families are as happy as they can be. Tbe betrothal of Miss Eva Mackay. step daughter of the Bonanza King, to Prince Ferdinand Coloana. of the famous old Homan family of that name, was announc ed in December and from that time to this tne brilliant nuptials have been the talk of tbe elite of Paris. Finally the happy day arrived. In accordance with F, each law and custom there has been a civil and a religious performance of the marriage ceremony. Yesterday the civil marriage was per- formed, with m little Ado as is necesaary to get through tbe formal undertaking. It eonsists mainly in a mutual signing of certain legal papers, a record of which is kept by the civil authorities, but until all tbe sacred rites of the church have been observed the marriage is not complete. The witnesses to the civil ceremony were Prince Coloana Doris. Prince Colonna, United Blates Minister Morton and Duke Decazes. And after this the expectant bride jmd bridegroom dreamed their dreams of bliss again until to-dav. Miss Eva Mackay, the bride] is well known to American readers. The bride groom, Pilnce Ferdinand Colonna, of Galatro, belongs to the Neapolitan branch of the illnatrlous Colonna family, the Colonna-Stlgliano. Don Ferdinand is twenty-seven years old. Ho is the eon of Don Andre Colonna, who died twelve years ago, and nephew of Prince Marc Antonie, chief of tbe Neapolitan branch. Tbe other branches of the family are the Colonna-Paliano, Colonna-Sciarra, Bar- berini-Colonna, all of Rome, and Colonna* Romano, of Palermo. The Coionnas and tlia Orslnia were the two moat powerful families of Rome da ring tbe middle ages, as they are among tho moat ancient. They assert thst one of their ancestors brought from Jerusalem the pillar to which Jesns Christ was bound when He jwas scourged.

Washinoton, February 11.—A few grains of wheat have been gathered out of the mass of chaff which the pilgrims brought back a few days ago from New York. There la no donbt that the treasury portfolio was formally offered to and pressed upon Mr. Randall last Friday, at the very time the politicians were dispos ing of it positively In another direction. It is no secret that Mr. Tilden regards Mr. Randall as beat fitted of all our leading public men for this responsible trust, and that he has freely expressed this opinion, so that It might reach the President-elect in a way to impress him with the import ance of the suggestion. Daring a visit to Greystono a month ago, which was invited with reference to this subject, Mr. Randall closed it definite ly- He said that tin matter mast be dis missed once for all, because he could not accept the Treasury if it were at his dis posal,-as he preferred his present post in ’ i P, 0 ] 186 ot Representatives to any that might be tendered him.

These conferences were supposed to ter minate any probability ot Mr. Randall's name being further considered inconnec- tion with the cabinet, when he was sud denly summoned to New York last week.

The naptial benediction was administered by Monsicnor de Hende.who also delivered the marriage address. The ceremony was accompanied with Pontifical High Mass administration, and the programme was so shaped u to put him forward for ths treu- ary, which hr himself did not desire. His B oliticsl following is mainly in the Connty lemocracy, though ho was supported by large influences outsile of that organiza tion. Some of the most prominent leaders of' the County: Democracy were found t j be opposed to Mr. Whitney for the treunry; and others joined in the opposition, be cause he is the son-in-law of M-. Pavne. of Ohio, and is alleged to be identified with tbe Standard oil monopoly. These protests undoubtedly made an impression on Mr. Cleveland's mind •gainst a strong inclination to resist it and to carry ont his own original purpose. Bnt he had made the treasury the key of the situation, and it was indispensable to organize the cabinet without special refer ence to that point. In the mldat of these complications and derangements Mr. Rsndall was asked to relieve them by taking the Treasury.

He can have tbe De partment of State, and there is every rea son to believe he will acceDt it. At no time, anl in no way. has Mr. Bayard en couraged the idea of bis going into the treasury. In fact, he la known to have frowned upon it, as far as delicacy might allow him to do so. In regard to an un authorized proposition. He has bad misgivings abont leaving the Senate, and has exprrssed them to inti mate friends freely. Bat he has about concluded to pat them aside, it his pres ence in the new administration is regard ed by Mr. Cleveland as important to its decided success or to the advancement of tbe politics! cause with which be Is identi fied. In this sense be wonld consider it r duty to adopt the wishes of the President elecL So far as known, Mr. Cleveland's mind is nnaettled in regard to other seats in tbe cabinet, thongh he has blocked out a chart with the names most approved by hia knowledge of the men to fill it np. This chart la open to correction, and may be re vised or even reconstructed before a final decision Is reached. Mach comment Is excited here over tbe non-appearance of Mr. Thurman at Albany or New York. Standing a hesd and ahonL ders above the ran of so-called leaders, and distinguished for great qualities of head and heart, the omission to consult hisexperience and wise judgment seems to be remarkable. No man in tbe Democratic party enjoys more of its deserved confi dence than Mr. Thurman. And, strange as it mar seem, the young Repub licans of Ohio, though trained in an ad verse school of politics, cherish him wilb affection, as an eminent citizen who has reflected honor on the State, and whose pnbl c and private chertcter are examples be admired and emulated. No offloe in the gilt of tbe President could elevate Mr. Thnrman above the dU- tinetlon be has already reached. He does not desire office of any kind. Bnt this la no sufficient reason why his valuable ser vices should not he considered, end bis counsel sought wheu It is most important.
