A LuE attic.

ALBANY, July 27.-Some excite
ment prevailed here on a rumor
of an attempt to shoot Gov. Cornell;
1t appears that a stranger walked
up the stoop of the old Capital
building and was about entering
when Superintendent Hyde, motto
ing the strange appearance OF the
man, who was carrying an old gun
on his shoulder, asked him where
he was going. He replied, Il am
Adjutant General of this State. .
Hyde at once saw the man was
probably crazy, and fearing some
harm to the State officials was in
tended, asked for the gun. The
stranger declined togive it up, when
a struggle ensued for its possession.
HYDE secured it. 1t was unloaded.
The stranger, who IS evidently reeov-
ering from spree. gives his name as
Patrick McLane. and claims to be a
blacksmith of Whitehall.

A Horrible Murder.

CARBoNDALE, Pa, July 25.-Evan
Reese, Is years of age, went up to
the topmost portion of the new
breaker of the Butler Collierv Com
pany in this city to-day, and was
standing or the upper screening
wheel, when a companion named
Lowery arrived. The latter told
Reese to come down or he would
pull out the iron bolt holding the
screen wheel, which makes thirty
revolutions a minute when in mo-
ton. Reese refused to come down,
and the bolt was thereupon with
drawn, and the screen turned SO rap
idly that it threw Reese fifty feet.
He struck head first upon large
rock below, and his brains were
knocked out and his whole body
disfigured.

Gaiteau's Prison Lie.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-The Star
to-day publishes an interview with
General Crockey, Warden of the Jail,
about Guiteau. Croker said, speak
ing Of Guiteau: "Thereshas been no
event in his life during the past
week that is worthy of mention.
He eats, sleeps and walks just like
any other person. No one has
come TO see him from the day he
was brought here; no one has man
Tested any friendly interest in him.
He don't seem to have any friends.
His brother in law was here, but he
did not appear to take any special
interest in him. There was no ami
mostly shown. however. If his
mother or brother or any of his
friends came to see him | would let
them see him, just as | would do in
the case ofany other prisoner. The
only people who have been here to
see him are those who come out of
mere curiosity. Guiteau is as quiet
as any person. He seems to have
made up his mind to patiently await
the result. He has not asked for a
lawyer. He has not asked to see
anyone. Iasked him if he wanted
a lawyer. lie said no, not at pres
ent. He claims to be a lawyer him
self. He knows enough not to talk.
He is sane enough for that. He
hasn't even expressed desire to
talk with anyone except Mr.. Bailey,
the stenographer, who has been
taking his statements. He has
sometimes asked to have him come.
There is no such thing as solitary
confinement: in this Jail. There is
seperate confinement. Guiteau can
hear other prisoners talk and can
talk with them though he is sepa-
rated from them. The guards talk
to him ON subjects connected with
his prison life, but not about the
President. Nobody here wants to

don't think he has any knowledge
OF the Presidents condition. He
reads a great deal.
"Does he get the newspapers ?"
HE has no newspapers. He
reads mostly the bible and serious
works"
There's nothing peculiar about
him ?"
No; / take no stock in his in
sanity. There has been nothing in
his actions here to indicate it any
more than in the conduct of other
criminals. ! do not think that he
is man of strong moral conviction.
General Crocker said Guiteau
reads the Constitution of the United
States and the Bible more than
any other books. Resides these he
had read three books belonging to
the Jail library, two novels and one
entitled Nine Years Among the
Convicts, or Prison "reminiscences" F"
by Eleazer Smith. No letters come
to the Jail for Guiteau.

THERE were four hundred and
thirty-seven iron furnaces in blast
in the United States on the 18th
inst, nearly double as many as were
in operation in 1877. The demand
for iron is steadily on the increase,
and will, if not interrupted, necessi-
tate the resumption of at least two
hundred more furnaces before the
year is out. 1t is now understood
that the consumption of iron in
making steel rails will be double
that of 1880 during ISL Tele-
ordph.
