 General ,Dumont, supervising inspector general of steam vessels, will return to this city tomorrow. During his absence he has been preparing his annual report, which will be particularly interesting from the fact that he will devote considerable space to the sev- eral very serious steamboat disasters of the past year.
 Rear Admiral Howell, commanding the European station, will shortly proceed to the neighborhood of Constantinople with 8 DOT tion of his feet, to look out for American in- terests in that quarter. The American fleet will of course take no prominent part in the demonstration against Turkey, but will cruise entirely outside of the sphere of this demon stration.

Fighting for His Wffe-SequeI of the
 Chase EIopement-Encounte Between
 the Negro Husband and the Young
 Lady's Friends.
 GA1EsBURG, Sept. 20.-In these dispatches last week were given the particulars of the elopement of Miss Nellie Chase, a refined and educated young lady, daughter of the late Rev. pr. Chase of the Episcopal church, with Sam Monroe, 8 colored coachman. They were married at the house of negro named Payne, ten miles from here, but the same day Monroe was arrested on the charge of larceny for carrying of satchel of clothing belonging to the young lady. He was placed in jail, where he remained until Saturday, when he was released on $20O bail. He has had no opportunity of seeing his wife since their marriage, she was spirited away to some relatives at Kenosha. Anoth- CT startling act connected with the affair took place this morning at the depot here. Miss Chase, accompanied by her two brothers and her brother-in-law, Rev. G. H. Higgins, went aboard the o'clock passenger train for Peoria, where Hon. Horace Chase, one of her brothers, resides. Miss Chase had scarcely been seated in the car, when, to the surprise of all, her colored lover and husband put in an appearance and insisted on seeing his wife. An 'altercation at once took place be- tween him and the young lady's relatives, during which blows were exchanged. Hor- ace Chase drew a revolver and shot at the retreating negro. The ball missed its mark and struck MT. George Crooker, well known merchant, in the shoulder. His wound is not serious. This brought together great crowd, and regular rough and tumble fight took place upon the platform, in which Mon- roe, the Chase brothers and policemen were participants Monroe escaped unhurt. Horace Chase was taken before the police court and gave bonds for his appearance next Tuesday. Monroe was discharged, no one appearing against him. Miss Chase and her relatives went to Peoria on the next train. The excitement runs high, and it is difficult to see what course affairs may take. No one appears to know the sentiments of the young lady about the affair, but her friends claim that she was out of her mind when she mar ried the negro. Sam says he is bound to have his wife.

Destruction of Life Averted by Rats.
 SCRANTON, Sept. 2O.-Much excitement exs ists among the people living at Councils Mines, on the outskirts of the city, over a cave-in that takes up three acres of the mines, gangways, and chambers. Some time ago a number of men were sent into the mine to "rob the pillars'' few days after they went to work they noticed that the rats which infest the mines, were hurriedly leav- ing It has long been an accepted fact among miners that when the rats begin to leave disaster will follow. The men quit work last week on this account and in twen- ty-four hours the earth where they were working came down with terrible crash. Scores of the men whose homes are over the mine became aware of the shock by the fall ing walls and tilted houses, and many of the residents in the sunken district are fearful of further and more disastrous damage

Epidemic Among Horses.
 BOSTON, Sept. 20.-More than half the horses in Boston and suburbs are suffering to g greater or less degree from a distemper re sembling in a mild form the epizootic oi 1872. The malady has within two or three days become widespread, and in the opinion of veterinary surgeons in few hours there will be scarcely an animal in the city unaf fected. But there appears to be no cause for alarm, as only small proportion of the animals attacked are rendered incapable oi work, and fewer yet are in danger of losing their lives. The affection appears to be in the form of equine influenza, and it is attri buted to the extreme weather changes in the past two or three years.

Diphtheria Fron, n Cats Bite.

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-Three deaths from diphtheria have recently occurred in the fam fly of Baldwin Gordon near Patchogue, L. l., under very remarkable circumstances. Some time ago 8 cat which had been owned by the family several months and which was suffer- ing from the disease was taken to the Gordon house. While playing with this cat little child was bitten in the finger; the wound caused intense pain and was so on followed by soreness and ulceration of the throat which physicians pronounced to be diphtheria. Others of the family have taken the disease and two of the children have died Mrs Gordon, who was recovering from sickness, was seized with the disease and died. It is now reported that still another member of the family has died. Physicians believe the cat was suffering from diphtheria when it bit the child.

caused by suffocation. The ventilators in the hotel are generally open, but some have been closed in the recent cool weather, so that Elopsky did not himself close the ven- tilator in his room. Saturday night he called for his key at o'clock. The chambermaid knocked loudly at the door at noon yester- day without receiving an answer. She knocked again at 2, but still there was no an- swer. The clerk looked through the ventila- tor and saw the man lying motionless upon the bed.
 In the very room in which Mir. Elopsky died man named Clark and connected with 8 Philadelphia banking house shot himself through the head some years ago.
