STEUBENVILLE LOCALS.
The Democrats of the City Agitated
over the appointment OF a Deputy
Penitentiary Warden.-Otnerl Items

Steubenvllle is agitated. At least the
Democratic portion Of it Is. Some days
ago Mr.. Daniel McConville was nomi-
mated by Gov. Bishop and confirmed by
the Senate as 8 member OF the Board OF
Directors OF the Ohio penitentlary. Yes.
terdsy the Board had q meeting, and
among other appointments Mr.. Jesse
Campbell was made assistant deputy
warden. During the war Mr.. Campbell
was member of the Republican party,
and strong snti-slavery man. In the
campaign OF 1875, when VIM. Allen was
candidate for Governor, MIR. Campbell
became converted to the Demo-
cratic faith, and was and Is now
strong greenbsck advocate. He
was member of the convention that
nominated Gov. Bishop, and voted for
him aud the whole Democratic ticket.
The argument used by Mr.. McCsnville,
who was, OF course, instrumental IN the
appointment, is that man must not
necessarily be q Democrat all his life TO
be q staunch one now, and hold an office
under the administration of that party.
They argue that if it should exclude
every person who has not been q lite long
Democrat, they would be in the same
position they were eight or ten years ago
away in the minority. They also claim
that Mr.. Campbell Is peculiarly fitted for
the position from the fact that he has had
an acquaintance with prisons for a num-
Der OF years.
The other sIde-those who are opposed
to the nominstion-prominent among
whom is Mr.. Charles n. Allen-aTgue
that there were staunch Democrats
enough in Steubenyille, who, by their
lifelong fidelity to the party and the
earnest work they have done for its sue.
cess, entitled one Of them to the ap.
pointment. They also say that Mr..
Campbell, while he was member
OF the opposition party, was very bitter,
and omitted no opportunity TO pass ts
inJure the Democratic party.
The feeling OF the opposition TO the
appointment is very bitter, and they
have been holding caucuses in the office
of Mr.. Allen, where each one expresse:
his opinion il his own peculiar style.
Mr.. McConvIlle ia supported in his posi-
tion by the Gazette

HORRIBLE MURDER
On Board steamer Hof.

PANAMA, February %. -Advices from
Iquique tell story of horrible murder
on the steamer Ilof, from Lima, shortly
before her arrival at Iquique. Alter
leaving port two stowawsys were found.
They were placed In irons on the man
deck, and fastened TO the stsnchion.
About three o'clock in the morning
deck trader, Chiliar, approached The
PRISONERS and accused one OF stealing
cheese from his tent. The man protest.
ed his innocence, stating it was impossi-
BILE, he being in irons. The trader
insisted, and cut the mans throat and
afterwards cut his head of and threw 1t
overheard. The other passenger, who
was bathed in blood, was helpless and
too terrified to call assistance. The muir
derer then attempted to throw the body
overheard, but finding it fast by the
wrist he cut round the wrist, broke the
bone across his knee, and thus ffreeing
the body threw it into the water. The
crime was discovered at daylight and the
murderer was handed over to the captain
of the port.

VIENNA, March 9.-The statement a..
compsnying the bill for the credit to be
submitted to the Delegations, says: "In
the present position of affairs it is not
impossible that the government will be
obliged TO take extraordinary measures
for the protection Of the interests of the
monarchy. In this case the government
must be in condition to cover the eI-
penses, and, therefore, asks for sixty mil.

this in completing the equipment of the

al men slightly hurt were taken to the

CHEYENNE, w. T., March "a
storm, exceeding in violence and dura-
ton any of the previous season, set in at
ii o'clock on the Sth inst, continuing
without abatement until noon to-day,
and the wind ranging in velocity from
50 TO 60 miles per hour, carrying snow
with it, and drifting it in banks 10 to 10
feet high in the city. 1t extended from
Bitter Creek on the west to Julesburg on
the east. A great number of cuts are
level full of snow, and ell trains on the
Union Pacific, Denver Pacific and Colo.
rado Central are either side tracked or
showed in. The plows stationed here
have been shoveling out, and tomorrow
morning, if the storm, which has not
wholly ceased, does not increase, they
will be vigorously manipulated.
Passenger trains No. 8, OF the Sth and
