SUFFOCATION.
Two FcmnIe. Found DendIn Red.


I he house No. 1915 Wood street is occupied
by four families. The front room on the first
floor was inhabited by William Cunnerton and
wife. During the last week Mrs. Eliza McGinn,
n widow, having left the family with which she
was employed as n domestic, went to the Cum
nertons' to stay until she could find other en-
ployment About 1016 o'clock on Saturday
night last they all retired, and the family being
very poor, slept on the floor.
Mrs. Farley, the landlady, about 10 o'clock
yesterday morning knocked at the door, and
receiving no answer, entered and found both the
women dead and the man insensible. Help
was sent for Immediately, and Drs. Steis
Ducket. and Clark of the u. s. Army, by the
use of an electric battery and other remedies, by
o'clock in the afternoon succeeded in arousng
Cunnerton to consciousness, and wardng off all
immediate danger.
An examination of the room disclosed the fact
that there was no ventilation whatever, and that
the gas from a coal fire burning in CRATE, the
humidity of the atmosphere preventing it from
ascending the ilue, had filled the room, and
caused the death of the women by suffocation.
Mr.. Cunnerton keeps small fruit and candy
stand near the Reading Railroad Depot. Mrs
Eliza McCiinn leaves three daughters and two
sons. They were all sober when they retired.

City AnnIrr.


The barn of Mr.. Comfy, situated on the Ok
lord road, about one mile north of Frankford,
was destroyed by fire yesterday morning. 1t is
supposed to have been the work of an incen-
diary. The loss, in the absence of the family,
who are all away, Is estimated at $4,000. In
sured for $4,000.
The boat-house of the Pennsylvania and
Crescent Clubs, above Fairmount, was formally

and two stories high. 1t is built of stone quar-
ried on the west bank of the Schuylllill, oppo-

the reduction of the State debt during his ad-
ministration, and also of the reduction of the
national debt since the Inauguration of Pres-
dent Grant. He urged united action on the part
of the Republicans at the coming election, and
said that tho result would have bearing upon
the Presidential contest of 1872

his memorable dismissal from the Foreign Office
by Lord Russell, and her Majesty's minute re-
quiring to see all his dispatches, and enjoining
him to make no changes after she had seen them,
which Lord Russell read in the House of Commons,
and as to which Lord Palmerston kept silence.
Posterity will know the whole truth; but any
one now above forty can hardly expect TO live
to know 1t. The latest revelations of political
correspondence of high importance are Lord
Grey's of 1882 and even here il is only seec-
tton. Lord Broughton, better known as Sir
John Hobhouse, has Just left his papers to the
British Museum, with a condition that they shall
not be opened till the year 1900. Where will
most gentlemen of forty be then? Whether a
later diary is discovered or not Lord Palmerston
is sure to have left abundance of materials for
the political history of the later portion of his
life. lie was great letter writer. He is said
to have written regularly once a week long
letter of political chit-chat to his brother, Sir
William Temple, the diplomatist, who was Min
lister at Naples from 1882 till his death in 1857;
and the entire correspondence with his brother
is preserved.

He is represented to be man of violent temper,
