instantly killed, His room mate, John
Gibhardt, stated that the deceased had
been very violent yesterday morning,
talking incoherently and expressing
fears of some one going to hang him.
At about 10 minutes 10 one he suddenly
rose from the bed upon which he was
lying fully dressed, with the exception
OF his coat, and rushed out Of the room.
Gibhsrt being a one armed man was un.
able 10 hold him and called for help. In
the meantime Storms made for the room
in the rear of the house. The door was
locked but the crazy man succeeded in
forcing it open. The noise awakened
the occupant of the room in time to see
deceased open the window who rushed
towards him and succeeded in catching
hold of his legs just above his feet ~ he
jumped out of ths window and held him
while he called loudly for help. The
deceased struggled violently for few
seconds aud Mr.. Rider not having re-
ceived any assistance. and his strength
having given out, WAS forced to let go
his hold. Deceased struck the railing
in the yard, knocking of board an
inch thick. Several persons immedi-
ately rushed to the spot where he fell
and found that he was dead. Deceased
was carpenter by trade and was en-
ployed in Plates Hall.
SAN FRANcIsco, Oct. 15.-Ths suspen-
sion of the shipping and commission
firm of Mueckle, Victor & Co. is an
nounced. The firm is old and we'll es-
tablished and its paper has always been
considered frst-cass. The failure is
owing to the accumulation of heavy
stock of bags which the firm had bought
up on speculation and for which they
were unable to find market. II is I'M
derstood the creditors will meet Wednes.

1t is believed their assets are largely in
excess OF there liabilities and that the
suspension will be only temporary.

tore.

EASTERN DISPATCHES.

New YORK, Oct. ia special to the
Times from Columbia says. General
Ringer, Commander of tho Department
of the South. arrived in Columbia this
morning. He had long consultation
with Governor Cham berlsin and the
Chairman of the Democratic State Com
mittee, and assured them iboth that as
far as it was in his power he would Sc.
cure in South Carolina fair and honest
election. He would protect democrats
and Republicans alike, but the three or
four companies OF regular troops now in
South Carolina would be only to prevent
open warfare, and enforce the laws Of
the United States. General Ruger has
conveyed to General Wade Hampton,
the Democratic candidate for Governor,
information that if there are any Demo.
cratic negroes who fear violence at the
hands OF Republican colored men, he
will do bis best to protect them. At the
same time, however. he will do every
thing in his power to stop the Barnwell
and Aiken outrsges, and secure to sll
negroes the rights which are guaranteed
to them by the National Constitution.

FOREIGN NEWS.

z; BERLIN, Oct. 15.-The Dispatch re-
ports that a semi official statement from
St. Petersburgh declares that the Porte's
proposal Of a five months armistice is
regarded by the public as merely an at
tempt to check-mate Russia, and evade
u guarantee for the proper treatment of
the Christians by the Porte, and don't
secure peace. Such proposals only
cause irritation. especially az the Gov
eminent is solicitous to give the inter-
ests of peace precedence over the sym.
pathies of Russia for their menaced CO.
religionists. A favorable reception of the
proposals by Russia is impossible, in
consequence of the increase of popular
excitement at the language of the Eng.
llsh press, which has OF late been dis.
trustful and jealous of Russia.
A dispatch from st. Petersburg says
that hopes are entertained of avoiding
the veto by England of an intervention
in Turkey by dividing into zones the
districts to be occupied by the forces OF
the Powers.
LONDON, Oct. 16.-The Times publish
es the text of the note in which Turkey
offered the six months armistice. A
Paris correspondent Of the paper CON-
menting says the note is conciliatory
and almost humble. The Times edito-
rally says Turkey could not possibly
have been more conciiatory. The note is
judcous and abstains from denouncing
foreigners as Russians. There is moth
ing in it at which Russia could take Of
fence.
The Times further says: The fact of
Russia having reverted to demands orig.
inally made by England would be en-.
couraging if We could regard with Con.
fdence the animus which prompted this
course.
The Daily News special from Bel
grade says Servia is willing to accept
statu quo, provided the Turks give guar.
antees for the proper government of Bos.
mia, but Servia will not consent to any
armistice longer than December 3lst. II
that is rejected now she does not bind
herself to accept it at any future time.
The prospect of an armistice or peace is
not flattering.

SPECIAL TO THE PIoCHE DAILY REooBD
BY WESTERN UNION LINE.
New-York tribune., 1876-11-29
WORK OF THE RETURNING BOARD.

Nrw-ORLEAXs. Nov. 2s.-The Returning Board
reassembed this morning. All Of the members,
the Republican aud Democratic committees ana
their counsel were present Gen. Anderson maze
another personal explanation. Judge Hpoi-
ford suggested that the board should issue
an order to compel the supervisors OF the fol
lowing parishes To hand in their returns: Franklin
Grant Livingston, Lafayette. and frangipahoa'
The Judge remarked that in these parishes there
were large Democratic majorities.
Gov Wells said tho board was entirely lhdopenu-
cnt of SUPERVISORS.
Judge Spofford-Is it in the power OF THESE hVe
supervisors by illegally withholding the returns OF
five parishes. which give a Democratic majority
Of 1900, to make or unmake q freSideh' vi uo'-
ernori
Gov. Wclls-lf the returns are not mere 'no 'o'o'
cannot bo counted.
Mr.. Gauthrieaux asked if the certified copies in
the district courts could not be produced as the law
proyided for the use of these copies when the orig
inal returns were lost or could not be prepared
Gov. Wells said ne had already ruled on that
point and thought 1T was unnecessary 10 say any
more about it, rs copies would not be received
Mr.. Gauthneanx and Judge Spoilord urged the
necessity of ordering supervisors to make tholr re
turns. 80,
Gov. Wells replied that he would give the order IL
the returns were not received by Wednesday
Col. Zacharic fled a motion to the elect that -
hours having elapsed the party proposing nterrosa-
tories shall fix the time aud place and state the name
of the United States Commissioners 10 take tne 'eS-
mony. and that ne shall notify counsel on the oppo-
site side - hours in advance, so that Doth parties
NAV be present when the testimony is beng taken'
The motion was immediately oyelrilca
The board then went into executive session.
The board in executive session inspected the re-
turns from the remaining wards in the City OF New
Orleans and from three parishes. All OF them were
laid over for future action. Then the parish Oh
Ouachita was taken up much TO the surprise OF the
Democratic counsel. as East Baton Rouge was the
parish fixed for to-day. -Four negroes were IN
troduced as witnesses of ehe Republican side,
and wero examined orally by the board ac-
cordng to interrogatories. The board ruled
in the first place that unless the Democrats
had s-interrogatores they would not be permit
ted to examine the witnesses orally Finally, after
remarks by the Republican and Democratic visiting
committees, the board consented to allow cross
examination of the witnesses b. the Democratic
committee. The testimony of the witnesses was IN
regard to intimidation and outrages, and was very
diffuse. The Democrats will introduce rebutting
