Exciting Scenes at a Lynching.

Exciting Scenes at a LynchinE.
 CHICAGO, Oct Especial despatches from Bloomington, H., give graphic details of the Iynching there on Saturday night of Charles Pierce, the imprisoned horse thief who shot and killed Jailer Franks while the latter was conveying him from one cell to another in the jail The despatches say that some of the best citizens were in the front ranks of the lynchers. Leading business men cheered and encouraged the lynchers, and women waved their handkerchiefs in appreciation For two hours the sheriff, with all his force, the police force and other officials, stood at the jail door and fought and pleaded with the infuriated crowd. When the murderer was raised the first time, Officer Bailey, of the police force, imperilled his life by break ing through the crowd and cutting the rope, letting the body fall. Upon attempting to repeat this act of bravery he came near being killed. The officers called out the fire de- partment to quell the riot by throwing water on the crowd. When steam engine arrived on the ground cries of "Cut the hose!' con- yinced the firemen that it would not do to un- dertake to carry out their instructions, and they retired. The ringing of the fire bells called hundreds more to the scene, and added to the excitement When the lYnching was imminent despatches passed between Gov ernor CulIom and Lieutenant Governor Ham ilton, and the latter was directed by the gov ernor to call on the militia to protect life and property, but it was known that the militia could not be assembled Senator Fifer, for merly State attorney, and R. B. Porter, State attorney, did all they could to quiet the mob, promising that the murderer should be tried and punished but their pleadiRgs and prom ises were booted at. stJustice and the courts are farce" 'sWe have seen too much of court quibblings," " and other similar remarks were shouted at the officers by the mob, who persisted in their purpose of lynching Pierce and then dispersed.

Guiteau's Case Expenditures Before
 the Grand Jury-The Wretch Growing
 Nervous.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-It now appears that the witnesses heard by the grand jury in the case of Guiteau to-day were not fully exam ined. Surgeon General Barnes and Dr. Lamb were requested to return tomorrow, to which time the grand inquest adjourned. It is pos sible that presentment will be made to- morrow and perhaps an indictment will also be returned, as by tomorrow evening Sco- vile, counsel and brother-in-law of Guiteau, may have arrived. It is not unlikely that the time will be fixed at once for the arraign- ment of the prisoner. This morning money order was received from Smith Jones, Nell sonville, Mich, for the payment of one cent to 0. G. Guiteau to be used as counsel fees. The assassin is very nervous as the day for his arraignment draws near. Within the past few days there have been reports in circulation that parties contemplated an at tack on the jail and it was said thas New Workers, Jersey men, Philadelphfans and Bal timoreans were to make an attack last night. No such attack WAS made. The probability is that the report had its origin in the fact that few days ago determined looking man asked for admittance to the jail and was refused. It was noticed that he was heavily

RavaGes Of the Cattle Plague.
 VIENNA, Oct. 3.-The cattle plague is rag ing in the province of lower Austria in the neighborhood of this capital It is found to have been imported from the Danubian States and Galicia, where it has been epidem- ip for some time. Animals arc suffering from the disease. Ofmeidling, one of the suburbs of Vienna, to which large quantities of Aus trian and Hungarian cattle have been con- stantly exported for 8 long time past, has taken alarm and issued stringent order en- tirely prohibiting admission across the from tier of any cattle from this empire A com mittee of German agriculturists has also sent a petition to Prince Bismarck requesting him to issue similar prohibition for the whole of Germany. The petitioners point out the necessity of this being done at once, as any delay will threaten the export of cattle from Germany to England and France, as the lat ter countries will not hesitate to stop the trade if the diseased animals are admitted into the empire from Austria or any other country

 The heavy pumps were all put to work Sunday in the effort to raise the steamer State of New York;. and they worked all night. Yesterday morning the steamer had been raised as far as the guard rails, and with the aid of the pontoons was lowed across the river and put on the flats below Goodspeed's 's Landing, where she now lies on an even keel. Every tide will raise her higher out of the water, with the help of the pontoons; and if there are no more accidents she will probably be pumped out in two or three days and be ready to be lowed to New York for repairs.
