The New York Post says: John Z. Stephen
son, OF that city, United States deputy
marshal, was murdered Friday afternoon IN
Jersey City by "a sailor named Jacob Net
land, who recently deserted with several
others from the Russian brig Wellamo.
A warrant for the arrest of man named
Fritz, the riugleader of the deserters, was is.
sued by Commissioner Shields and placed in
.he hands Of Marshal Stephenson for execu.
ton. While Stephenson was in Hudson
street near Greene, In Jersey City. OH bis
way to the office of Marshal Bailey, he was
dogsed by Metland, who had by some means
learned bis business. At the northwest
corner OF Hudson and Greene streets Melland
drew Il knife and plunged it into the back of
the officer, who turned aud seized him, max
ing IN effort to draw bis pistol. After
short but desperate struggle the wounded
man became faint, and fell, when the assassin
stabbed him again in the breast, causing al
most instant death.
Metland then ran down Hudson street, but
was pursued and captured. During his flight
he stabbed himself in the breast and drew
the knife across his throat, but without in
flictiug fatal wound. lie was taken to the
county Jail. lass

TERRIBLE AND DESTRUCTIVE FIRE In MlCHI-
GAs-Two HUNDRED BUILDINGS BURNED
Grand Rapids, Michigan, July 13.-At 3
O'Clock to-day this city was visited with
another terrible and devastating fire. It was
first discovered in a house and barn located
on Kent street, and 1t being very dry and
high wind blowing, within few minutes
the entire structure was one sheet ofGame.
Notwithstanding the fremen were early on
the ground and at work, the flames soon got
beyond their control and spread in all direc-
tons, consuming everything in its way from
Bridge street to Trowbridge, and from Canal
to Division, except the building fronting
south on Bridge street and west on Canal
street. A. Gays furniture warehouse, Rice
and Tearse's Touring mills, and two or three
adjoining buildings on the south. A quantity
OF lumber on the lot next to the Ohio House
was all that was burned on Canal street.
About twenty acres OF ground We're burn
I'd over, and two hundred buildings con-
sumed. The loss cannot be less than
100000. 1t is impossible at this time to
give the amount of insurance, but it will ap-
proximate 100000.
At this hour the fire ia entirely under con-
troll, and no further damage is probable.

CHARGES AND COUNTER CHARGES.
| A sweeping charge made by Colonel Par
nell, one of the cabin passengers, against the
captaip. officers, and crew, accusing them Of
mismanagement and incompetency, both De
| fore and after the disaster, caused no little
| astonishment here, inasmuch as ne mao
| signed the testimonial to the opposite OF
what he published.
| j. z. Hammond, also cabin passenger
pronounces the statement of Colonel Parneil
to be devoid of truth. He says thorough
discipline and good watch was kept during
the entire voyage. He claims to be compe-
tent to speak, as he never left the deck any
night before - or o'clock. There were
