- WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. The Secretary of the
Navy has received the following despatch from
the wreck of the Huron: Examined the
Huron with divers aft; fed upper deck gone;
both decks have foated IN nearly to the spar
deck, so that the divers could not get in the
ward room; will examine forward this D. m.
the undertow and current are bad; the spar
deck is entirely submerged, the port side being
8 feet under water will be obliged to blow up

LAWRENCE, Dec. ga diabolical outrage
committed on Wednesday, has Just CINE to
Mary Leary, enticed to her house Chestnut
street girl named Bridget Murphy, and after
rendering her insensbe with liquor heated q
poker and burned her severely about the thighs
While her victim was writhing in agony the
Leary woman added TO her torture by tearing
the skin from the scared parts She was ar
rested and held in $500 bonds to await the &C.
ton of the grand jury. The Murphy girl is Sc
verely injured and unable to sit or lie without
great pain. The cause of the inhuman act was
doubtless revenge, as the Murphy girls mother
had forbidden the Leary woman access to bel
house on account OF her bad character.

A Slight Improvement i'm MIR. BowIes'
Condition.
SPRINGFIELD, Dec. ga consultation of
physicians this evening decides that while Mr.
Bowles' condition is dangerous and doubtful,
it is not pow so hopeless as it appeared to be on
Saturday and Sunday. There has been, during
the day, a perceptible improvement in his
articulation he has also been able to take lit
tie nourshment in liquid form, and his con-
sciousness continues 10 be perfect except for
slight wanderings at long intervals. He retains
still a very considerable degree of muscular
strength. His continuance for so long a time
without more rapid failing, and the slight inn
provemeet mentioned indicate possibility of
yet further improvement. There remains,
however, constant possibility of a recurrence
of the original attack, and in any event it will
be some time before decisive opinion as to the
prospects can be pronounced. All that can now
be said is that there is forlorn hope, at least,
for recovery.
