BRUTAL MURDER IN MARYLAND-A Woman
KILLED and Her Husband Badly BeateR.-Corres-
pOnceDce of the Baltimore Gazette from Eas-
ton, Talbot County, Md, July 10, says:-oA
tween 10 and II O'Clock near tie store OF T.
Rowens, Long Wood, Talbot county. The VIC
Tim, Mr5 whitman, in company with her hus-
band, had left the store but few minutes be-
lore she met her death with some groceries, and
was quietly proceeding home when an attack
was made upon them by stout negro man
named George Wheeler, assisted by another
colored man named Hines. Mr.. Whitman was
first attacked, and knocked senseless by a blow
on the back of bis head from a carriage shaft
IN the hanGs OF wheeler. Next Wheeler strue k
Mrs. Whitman twice on the back OF the head
with the same heavy weapon, killing her out
rght. Hines, the accOmplce, lied az soon a.
Wheeler struck Mr.. Whitman. When Mr.
whitman recovered he returned to the store
and gave an alarm, but when parties arrived
was but short distance from the store, in the
woods, and only a few rods from a dwelling
mouse occupied by Mr.. John Henry. The
nelghbors promptly turned out en- masse in
search OF the murGerers, and this morning
wheeler was found on DIR. Meals farm with
whom he lived, behind a barn, and with his
throat cut. DIR. Neal sewed up the wound, and
Wheeler confessed the diabolical deed: said
That he had attempted suicide, and named his
companion, Hines. 1t was as much as the OFF,
GERS OF the law and some law abiding citizens
could do to prevent the hanging of Wheeler ~
the excited people. They procured a rope, and
were ready to adopt extreme measures, when
SOBER counsels prevailed. The only proyoca-
tlon, as Tar as known, was q quarrel between
Mrs. Whitman and Wheeler a few days before
man and Wheeler were in the employ of Dr.
Neal on the same farm. Mrs. Whitman was en-
ciente. Hines was also arrested, and the two
prisoners are now In the Jail at Easton.

THB SPANISH REPUBLICS STRUGGLE FOR
LIFE.-Tbe severity of the struggle for its life
In which the republican government of Spain is
now involved is shown by the DEGREES that are
now being issued from Madrid. All Spain is
declared to be in state OF siege; the estates of
thereon in favor OF families of republicans
killed In battle; and finally, reserve force OF
$4,000 men is ordered. These DEGREES involve
military law, confscation and cOnscription
They are extreme expedients, and clearly indi-
cate the severity OF the strain which the carlist
war causes in Spain, as well as the determine
ton OF the government to spare nothing to
mentsry decree orders death for all persons
interfering with the railways and teIegraphs,
and as that Is favorite pastime with the insur-
gents, the government may have its hands full
OF executions.

THE PREVENTION OF FIRKs.-In view of the
recent disastrous FIRE in Chicago, and the wide
spread distrust of our present defective methods
OF building, the following suggestions have been
New York clty: First-Only hard wood should
be used in window frames or the exterior OF
buildings. Second-An window frames shouId
be disconnected from Turing aud interior wood
work by at least four feet of incombustible
material. Third-Fire proof Compartments
should be constructed In all hollowIioors and
hollow partitions. Fourth-A sufficient supply
Of water should be constantly ready, with arnpls
force of apparatus. 1t is believed that IN q ma
iority OF cases fires may be arrested at their
Inception by these precautions.

NEW MILFORD. Housatonic freight down Tuesday evening struck an unknown tramp about three miles above New Mill ford. He was seen walking on the track by the engineer, but although the whistle was blown repeatedly, he gave no heed to the warning and the train was running at such high rate of speed as to render It impossible to come to stop III time to
 prevent the accident. The unfortunate man was struck with such force as to be thrown upon the head light of the loco notice, falling from thence alongside the track. As soon as possible the train was stopped and the body taken on board and conveyed to New Milford. He was dress ed in the usual attire of a vagrant and
 nothing of any value or that would give
 clue to his name was found upon his per
 son. He been seen nearly every day for a
 week past walking upon the track at vari-
 ous points of the road, ana from his
 strange conduct it IS thought probable
 that he was insane.
