District of Columbia,

In former messages, impressed with the i'm
poltance of the subject, l have taken occasion
to recommend 10 Congress the adoption Of q
generous policy toward the District Of Column
bia. The report Of the Commissioners Of the
District herewith transmitted contains sugzes-
lions and recommendations to all of which
earnestly invite your careful attention | asA
your early and favorable consideration Of Tia
views which they express as to urgent need o
legislation for the reclamation OF the marshes o.
the Potomac and it's eastern branch within the
limits Of the city, and for the repair OF stree
of the capital, heretofore laid with wooden
blocks, and by delay rendered almost impass
able and source of imminent danger to the
health of its citizens. The means st the die
posal Of the Commissioners are wholly made
quate for the accomplishment 0f these imp
tant works and should he supplemented b,
timely appropriations from the Federal cas-
urv. The filling of the flats in front Of the city

owned by the United States large and valuable
domain, efficient, il is thought to reimburse
its entire cost, and viii aleo. as an Incidental
result, secure the permanent improvement OF
the river for the purpose OF navigation.

with supreme and exclusive jurisdiction over
the District OF Columbia, it's citizens must. al

Wall street probably never knew a
speculator who failed as often as Uncle
Dick Schell. He went into all sorts Of
fancy operations, and il they didn't turn
out right he only had to fail, and start
again next day. One story on this head
is as good as a hundred. He met Thur
low Weed at & railroad station one day
and dropped into lively conversation.
When it had lasted some time Weed
asked him where he was going, Well

SPAIN.
A wonderful sp.nIard Dead.

Wonoeffui Spanfard Lead.
Madrid, Jan. 9.-Don Baldomero
Espartero, duke of Vittoria, died to-
day from an attack of apoplexy.
Joaquin Baldomero Espartero was
one Of the most remarkable men of the
first half Of the present century, and a
sketch proves very interesting. From
the obscure parentaye OF a wheel
wright, and from the still more obscure
position of common soldier, he rose
to the highest position he could possi-
bly, attain in a monarchy. He was
born in Spain in 1892. which made him
81 years of age at the time of his death.
III 1875 he enlisted as a common SOL
dler, and had much experience in war;
fare. Subsequently he attended the
military school at Cadiz, and became a
lieutenant. His promotions came rap
idly, until In 1885 he was commander
in chief of the Spanish army. In 1S40
he was at the head of the government,
on account of Queen Christina re-
signing her regency, and he was elected
by the cortes to maintain the regency
during the minority of Queen Isabel.
In 1913 an insurrection broke out, and
Isabel's majority was proclaimed, which
resulted in the ov, rthrow of Espartero,
who fled to England. He was recalled
to Spain in '4S and made a senator. In
"a another insurrection put him at the
head Of the government, but it lasted
only two years, when d.ssensions in the
cortes compelled his retirement. Since
that time Espartero has lived in the
most complete retirement, although
there have been many stormy events to
attract him from his seclusion.

IRELAND.



Belfast, Jan. 9.-Grant goes direct
to London, expecting every day the
arrival of the steamer Richmond, on
which he will embark for India. The
General Is anxious to be away before
the season is too warm to visit India.
Inflammatory appeals have been pub
lished, and one of them calls on Irish
men to welcome Grant as the great
Orange republican who had shot dead
sixty craw-thumping papists who, IN
stigated by Italian priests, had attempt
ed to stop an Orange procession on
Broadway.
Grant declines all efforts to draw him
into an expression of his opinions on
the subject, saying simply that he
would be ashamed of his career If it
contained any word inconsistent with
hi, belief in civil and religious liberty.
Grants resolution not to visit Cork
was taken before hearing of the action
of the Cork council, on account Of the
shortness of his time.
1t is believed now that had he gone
there, riots OF the most dreadful char
acter would have ensued.

Terrible Suffering Of a Mail Driver.

cember mail driver. Casey" left
Sun river, in mail cart, for Fort Ben
ton. Not reaching Twenty-eight mile
springs station, half way to Benton,
aud binding snow storm prevailing
at the time, he was supposed to be lost.
Search was made, and on the Afth inst.
Casey was found seated in his cart,
which the horse was drawing slowly
along, about twenty miles north of
Springs station. During all this time
he had wandered on the prairie In near
ly a circle, picketing the horse and
camping out at night. His feet are
frozen, but it is believed not seriously,
and that he will not lose his limbs.
The only thing that passed his lips was
tobacco and snow. The thermometer
the whole time was below zero.

NEW YORK.
As the Poli.icians See 1t.

New York, Jan. 9.--Actual resump-
tion has materially modified the east
ern movement for Grants renomina-
tion to the presidency. This is the
general opinion among the shrewdest
in forecasting the future. The Grant
movement reached the climax Just after
the Maine election, when fear was
aroused that the greenbackers, obtain
ing control of congress, might organize
a hostile demonstration Of labor against
capital. This led to q desire for a
strong man at the head of the govern
ment, who would likely take unusual
responsibilities, but the November elec-
tions banished the fears which sug-
gested such q necessity. Now that re-
sumption is believed to assure a re-
newed industrial prosperity, the public
tendency is towards candidates whose
experience is supposed to fit them for
the solution Of polltico-economical
problems.

NeW York, Jan. 9.-Neal Dow, hav-

the famous London preacher, used beer
and spirituous liquors very freely,
Sturgeon writes as follows to an Amer
ican friend: "If Neal Dow knew the
truth he would not make such charges
against me. My manner of life is be-
fore the world. Ask them that know
me. Whatever faults may have, I
have been preserved at all times from
excess. and have given no grounds for
anyone to- accuse me of 1t. use no
alcoholic drink or beverage, but !. am
an habitual abstainer, and, as a rule, a
total abstainer. Beer, of which Dow
speaks, l never touch, and i never
thought, much less said, that could
not keep up to my work without brandy
and beer. l do not believe these, or
any other stimulants, are. a help to any

The cheyennes Make Bad Break.
Ft. Robinson, Jan. 10, 3:05 a. m.-
The hostile Cheyennes who were
imprisoned here since last
October having been Informed by the
commanding officer few days ago that
they were to be taken back to their
agency in Indian territory, determined
to die rather than consent to such a
movement.
Since the information was impaired
to them, they have become very sullen
and have repeatedly expressed deter
mination to die before consenting to
such a movement. They have become
very stubborn for the past few days,
and, fearing an attempt to escape, the
post commander had placed strong
guard over their prison room.
Last night about IL O'Clock, while
nearly every one was in bed, except the
ever watchful guard, the savages
jumped through the windows of the
prison room and made for the cold
prairie, which Is thickly coated with
frozen snow, firing on the guard from
revolvers, they had concealed since
their capture. dangerously wounding
four Of the guarl, of whom one has
died and another is not expected to
survive the day. The main guard
rushed out of the guard house upon hear
ing the firing, and upon ascertaining
the cause and seeing the fleeing hos
tiles running for the bluffs, imme-
diately followed, and opening FIRE, shot
and killed over forty savages. Ovet
100 of the cavalry, mounted and dis
mounted, are in pursuit of the fleeing
savages.
The sharp bang of the carbine in the
hands Of our men can be heard from
the hills, three miles distant, where the
savages have evidently made for. 1t is
thought not one Of them will escape.
Further particulars very soon.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 6.-The plague
has caused general panic in Astra-

of the Golos writes that the plague has
commenced In village in the district
of Enotaevsk. Precautions against the
disease were at first neglected, as it
was mistaken for typhus. When the
weather became warm the people died
like flies. The dead lay unburied in
the streets. The infected district has
been surrounded by troops. Commu-
nication with Moscow has been stopped.
General anxiety prevails throughout
Russia. 1t is supposed that deaths
have been more numerous than stated.

Washington, Jan. 9.-There is much
dissatisfaction among members of con-
gress, as wei as large portion of the
outside publc, that the house has need
lessly waste two whole days by ad-
journment nd recesses, on account Of
the death of oie of its members. 1t Is
evident that business might have pro-
ceeded during be grea ter part of both
afternoons, witout omitting the usual
marks of respec for the deceased at
later hours, andt would seem that the
majority were q I'd to avail themselves
of any excuse toArevent either political

hess, except amt Il appropriation bills.
