ssBiaclx Fever'' at Northampton.
 NORTHAMPTON, Oct PA disease called by some 'black fever" but which the physi- clans generally call typhoid fever, is almost epidemic at Leeds. In fatal cases the sick ness terminates with diarrhHa Those pros- trated are mostly Canadians who live on the west side of Mill river, on what is called Canada, " and seven are down on one short street, three cases having proved fatal. In other parts of the village there is no sickness, and it is thought the cause of this fever is wholly local The houses which have been built up in this locality within few years were erected in swamp, and little or noth ing has ever been done toward draining the wet land. Then the river has been low all summer, which may have also aggravated the difficulty It is hoped that the frests will re- move the source of illness.

Accident on the New England Road.

Accident on the New England Road.
 HYDE PARK, Oct. 12.-While the engine of a gravel train on the New England railroad was taking water at the station at D. m, the night freight for Hartford crashed into the rear car, killing two laborers who could not escape. Conductor Moorhead and Brake man Nash, who were also on the car jumped off just in time to save their lives. Four of the dumps were reduced to kindling wood and others damaged. Some of the timbers of the covered bridge were injured, the loco motive derailed and the rails torn up for some distance The engineers place the re- sponsibility on each other. Skillings claims that Perkins ought to have been guided by the danger signal and thus avoid running in- to the motionless train. Perkins says that the gravel train was running on the time of the freight train, that as soon as he saw the red light he used all means to stop the train The damage to the roadbed and rolling stock is considerable.

 the Republicans FOR PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE. The Democrats Resigned to the
 inevitable. Death of Doctor Holland. A Sudden Ending of a Bril-
 liant Career.
THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

The Extra Session-PresIdent Bayard to Be Ousted-SeBator Davis the Repub- lican Caucus Nominee-NO Progress on the Secretaryship.
 WASHINGTON, Oct 12.-The decision of the Republican caucus to offer resolution for the election of David Davis to the Presidency of the Senate has caused the biggest kind of rufde among the legislators. The Demo- crats recognize the fact that the opposition would not have taken such step if they were not sure of their game The story was started to. day that the nomination was made in the Republican caucus without knowledge as to whether Davis would consent, but later it was learned that Senator Davis had noth- ing to say and it has been taken for granted that he would therefore have nothing to say when the vote was taken on his election. Elf forts to interview him have been fruitless, but even Democrats admit his capture by the enemy, though they are not quite so sure that the Republicans will be ready to take vote tomorrow. The Republican idea does not seem to beso much that Davis as man or partisan is better suited for Vice President than Bayard, but that if he received the po- sition at their hands he will no doubt feel constrained to abstain from voting when nec- essary to the accomplishment of their de- sires. In regard to further organization whether the election of Davis is undertaken tomorrow or not, the Republicans will stick to MT. Edmunds' resolution for the continu- ation of last sessions committees.
 The Democrats in caucus this evening de- clded to offer an amendment dispensing with any recognizing of the committees except that of Indian Affairs, Pensions, Army and Navy, Postofices and Foreign Relations, or those demanded by the character of execu- tive nominations. In regard to any Demo- cratic opposition to the proposed Davis reso- lutlon, the Democrats propose, according to MT. Pendleton, to attempt delay. If they have captured Davis they have things their own way, and we will submit We will vote solidly against his election as 8 matter of course" Said another Senator: 'sIt is un- derstood that several Republican Senators found themselves unable to vote in favor of Davis nomination, but there was round majority and the whole vote goes with it so far as now known The uncertainty on this point may keep the shot from being fired to- morrow
 The Democrats still decline to elect the secretary of the Senate, and thus far the Re pubicans have failed to reach a decision as to whether they will attempt it. The chances are against the election of such officer this session.
 The general sentiment of the caucuses of both sides to-day was against adiourning over for Yorktown or anything else until the business of the session be completed. No vote was taken on this question, however.

Guiteau's Case-H1s Counsel Wants Him
 Put to PIead-The Assassin Growing
 Ugly.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-Mr. Scoville, Gui- teau's counsel. seems anxious to have the as put to plead, then he will move for two months delay for preparation. The District attorney is not in so much of a hurry for some reason, but his arraignment is promised for some day next week. The assassin is said to be growing ugly. His counsel says: q tried to obtain from him the names of persons for witnesses in towns and other places that he had been for the purpose of finding out his conduct and condition of mind before coming to this city. He would not give me single name and refused to con- verse about the case'' The jaiIers report about sundown yesterday that while Scoville was in the warden's office with Guiteau rather neatly dressed man about six feet in height made his appearance and said he had been sent to the jail to see Guiteau by one of the latter's friends Warden General Crock CT informed him that it was an unreasonable hour and he could not see him. The man then reluctantly left There is an impressioR that the man came to the city for the express purpose of killing the prisoner. A gentleman who saw Guiteau in his cell this morning says he found him sitting on his bed reading book. The prisoners eyes were terribly bloodshot and he was evidently in a. high fever. He expressed himself as being afraid: his strength would not last through his trfal The assassin talked rapidly and necessarily his health being the only subject of conyersa- ton. He complained greatly about malaria

Cabinet GossIp-A Report that Secretary
 Blaine VIII Stay for the Present-Del-
 esatiOns Urging their Candidates
 Other Matters.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-The President still keeps close counsel in regard to his intended Cabinet changes. Several of the Cabinet were with him to-day, but the removal ques- tion was not touched on. The matters con sidered were department vacancies recently filled and to be filled. As result there will be large batch of nominations sent to the Senate tomorrow, principally of postmasters and officers of the Interior department. It is now thought that the President will not nominate successor of either Secretaries Blaine or Hunt for some days, as these gen tlemen are to escort and entertain the French visitors to the Yorktown centennial It is expected that the nominations of the new Secretary of the Treasury and Attorney Gen eral will come in tomorrow, though they may not. The last gossip is that .ex-senator Boutwell,, of Massachusetts, is to be Attorney General, and that ex-Governor Morgan, of New York, has at his disposal the acceptance of the Treasury portfolio. It is rumored that ex-Senator Conkling is in New York to pre- vail on Governor Morgan to accept The changes in the Cabinet, it is further said, will depend altogether on such acceptance or de- cGnation. Secretary Blaine's friends now say he will remain in the Cabinet until De- cember at least It is not improbable that Postmaster General James will remain in the Cabinet until the Star route prosecutions are closed. An Indiana delegation now in the city are said to be pressing Judge Gresham and John Carew for Cabinet portfolios. MT. Frank HaIton of the Burlington HGsokeye will probably be made first assistant postmaster general. During the lifetime of President Garfield General Arthur warmly recommends ed MT. Halton for this place. Pennsylvan- ians are endeavoring to get up boom for ex- Congressman Packer, of Pennsylvania, for the gation is still actively at work presenting the claims of Senator Hoe for Cabinet recogni- tion.
 Among the postmasters whose salaries are g., ,0O0 or over, and whose terms expire be- fore long, are the following: J. J. Stevens, Manchester, N. H., February 21; Charles Fl. Manser, Brattleboro, Vt, December 1lth J. G. B. Adams, Lynn, Mass, November 18th; George G. Pond, Milford, Mass, Oc- tober 31st Bartlett Bent, Middletown, Ct.. December 11th; J. W. Hill, Waterbury, Ct., December 11th.
 Colonel Rockwell expresses the opinion that what will probably be done by order of Congress to improve the sanitary condition of the White House will be to tear out most if not all of the inner wall and rebuild practi- cally on the same plan as regards the order of rooms, but introducing many improve ments essential to health.
 General Hancock reached here to-day on his way to Yorktown.
 Owing to the enforced absence of govern ment counsel further proceedings in the Star route cases will be postponed until next week. The motion to quash will probably come up next Tuesday.
