NzhaI1Lstfc Speculation.

4 Paris dispatch says: Rochefort and
Oliver Paine left for Geneva on the 18th to
obtain authentic details of the assassination
from the Nihilists' correspondent. A fresh
communication ftom this person is published
in the IntrnsigeGeat to-day, which warns the
public against attaching too much credence to
kilograms from st. Petersburg, and declares
positively that the young man (Roussakof)
could not have thrown the first bomb. The
real criminals, according to this correspond
ent, were inside one Of the mansions border
ing Rue Millione. But the Russian officials
found it convenient to let it be supposed that
the shells were thrown By persons in the
crowd. He says that none Of the assassins
have been arrested. The inference to be
drawn from this statement is that the Emper-
or was murdered by members Of the Nihilist
fraternity holding high official positions.
The correspondent further afirms that the
bombs were not inclosed in glass, as stated,
and thatonly five seconds elapsed between the
TWO explosions. This last statement If cor
rect would seem to upset the picturesque
story about the Gear getting out Of his car
rage TO attend TO the wounded.

Another Arctic Expedition.

CHICAGO, March 16.-A New York special
says: Among the stories that are current here
is one that James Gordon Bennett is seriously
contemplating an Artic expedition. Larry
Jerome, who is in Europe with him, has re-
Gently written to a friend that while Bennett
is enjoying himself greatly IS master of q
hunt somewhere in England, yet be is very
much depressed and anxious over the Arctic
expedition which he equipped and sent out in
the name Of the Herald. He conceives it TO
be his duty to fit out another expedition in
search of the lost one and take command of
it himself. he has alrerdy telegraphed to
stop work On the new yacht he contemplated
building In this country, and thinks the
money he proposed to .expend that way shall
be devoted to the building Of q vessel, which
will be constructed with a view to encounter
ing the ice Of the northern seas. Already he
has had interviews with some Scotch ship
builders on the subject. Therefore the news
Bennett has seriously entered upon his new
project may be expected at any time. IL is
characteristic OF Bennett that execution fol
lows closely upon the heels Of conception.
