italian.

New YORK, December 9.-This morning
Pasquate Tocuito, aged 81 years, an Ital
iae, living in a tenement house at Sc
Thompson street, shot his wife, Catharine,
through the head and killed her on the
spot. Turning upon his mother-in-law,
Maria Valentia, he shot her through the
head, and next shot himself through the
neck, and bespattered with the brains of
his two victims and dripping with
blood, he ran to the Prince street police
station and gave himself up. The police

lentia, who was still alive but with bullet
in her brain, to st. Vincent's Hospital. Her
wound is mortal The murderer was taken
to the hospital guarded by policemen. He
has chance Of recovery. His young wife
was only IA years of age and her mother 80.
The greatest excitement exists over the
affair in the / allan colony
The mother-in-law, whose real name is
Marie Valentine, died immediately ON her
arrival at the hospital. She did not regain
consciousness after the shooting. 1t is not
yet known whether or not the murderer's
wounds are mortal. There are two bullets
in HIS head. both of which were fred from
under the chin upward. At the hospital
the murderer said he shot himself first, next
his wife, and then his mother in-law, and
that afterwards he shot himself twice, and
then repaired to the police station. He
gave as his reason for the shooting jealousy
of his wife and her infidelity.

list of disabled ocean steamships, and
steamships overdue, is indeed a formid-
able one. The steamship Amsterdam had

last Thursday, wreck, with the loss of
several of her crew. The Erin had to be
towed back. disabled, to Liverpool. The
Bolivia, of the Anchor line, which left
London, November 10, for Boston and
New York, with 100 passengers, had to
take refuge in Queenstown, having lost
her funnel and four boats, had a skylight
smashed, and sustained other damage,
besides losing the third engineer, killed,

make her voyage, but go to Glasgow for
repairs. The Hamburg American steam

Plymouth on November 20, while on her

LONDON, December 9.-The Standards
dispatch from Vienna says: "The estimated
audience in The theatre numbered two thou
sand. Many persons were trampled to
death in the panic which ensued as soon as
the fire was seen. There was an explosion
Of gas, and the audience was plunged in
darkness"
A later telegram from Vienna, dated this
morning, says: 1.-TWO hundred and seventy
bodies have now been recovered from the
ruins Of the Ring Theatre. The fourth gall
lery has not yet been explored. It is be-
lieved that not single person escaped from
that gallery, and that very few escaped from
the third gallery. The corpses last recov-
cred are little more than charred fragments.
Gross neglect is charged against the man
agement of the thea re. The law prescrioes
the use of oil lamps in the corridors OF a
theatre, so that the exits shall be discernt-
BILE in the event OF failure of the gas. But
this precaution was utterly neglected. The
person IN charge OF the iron curtain between
the stage and the auditorium appears to
have fed at the first alarm "
VIENNA, December 9.-Ten thousand

morning in aid of the families of the vic
Tins of the fire, who are probably far more
numerous than was at first believed. Bust

THE TRIAL OF GUITEAU.
The Assassin tu an Ugly HumOr-
Added Testimony TO His sanity.

WASHINGTON, December 9.-The Guiteau
trial attracted a larger crowd to. day than
for several days past. DR.. Macarthur again
took the stand. Mr.. Scoville addressed the
court and objected to the character Of the
evidence which had been given by the wit
ness, on the ground that evidence to any
o,her crimes could not be introduced here,
when the prisoner is on trial for this par
ticular offense. He desired that all such
evidence should be stricken out.
The court ruled that the evidence could
be admit ted to show the general character
OF the prisoner. The witness then testified
as to his interviews with the prisoner, and
said he never saw any ind cations of in
sanity in the prisoner Several other wit
nesses were examined, all Of whom testified
to the same effect, and the court then took
the usual recess.
After the recess several more witnesses
testified 20 transactions more or less disre
putable in Guireau's past life, and the pris-
oner abused tbem all, calling them liars,
and every abusive epithet he could think
OF. Several applications for life insurance
policies were put iTp evidence, In which
Guitesu asserted that there was no insanity
in his family. Guitesu poured out such
torrents OF abuse upon the witnesses that
there was difficulty in conducting the pro-
ceedings. Adjourned till Monday.

1t is said of Pullman, the palace-car
man, that he is now about forty seven
years of age, in perfect health, sys-
tematic in his habits, and good for
twenty years at least of work. He has
a home in Chicago that cost nearly
$4,000 where he lives mostly while in
America He has elegant summer places
on the ST. Lawrence and at Long Branch,
at which one of his four brothers, two
of whom are preachers, or some of his
immediate family or friends may be
found during the summer. He spends
much of his time in Europe. The Sc
oret of his being able to accomplish so
much business is his marvellous power
of discrimination in selecting his lieuten-
ants.

idea that hops are strengthening, have taken
to drinking beer and ale very freely. The
consequence ls, they feel better for a short
time, but when the reaction comes they are

value life, lay aside all malt and alcoholic
beverages and put your trust In that tenn

characteristics of the New Speaker.

The new Speaker got through with his
first day very well. He is not a
polished orator nor ready or quick
man, but be showed himself easily
able to control the House, and the
only decision he was called on to make was
delivered in plain, brief way, and secured
the consent of both sides, and thus put an
end to what threatened TO become a wrangle.
Mr.. Keifer resembles Mr.. Randall in man.
ner, hardness of voice and in a certain ap-
parent unreadiness. He has the reputation
of being violent partisan, and his selec-
ton was not welcome to the Democrats, who
refrained from spplauding mis- address on
taking the chair to day. But he promises
to be impartial, and VIII no doubt keep
his promise, for the exhibition of partisan
spirit by the Speaker is always quickly re-
sented by the House, which feels the need
of a moderator In It's often heated discus
sions. The Speakers opinions and preiu--
dices exercise, through his appointment of
the committees, so important and decisive
an influence over the action of the House,
and thus on legislation, that it may be well
to add that Mr.. Keifer is a jealous protec-

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, December 9-The
arguments in the Flipper case were deliver
ed to-day, and the court rendered its verdict,
out what 1t is will not be known until pass
ed upon by the reviewing authorities. The
question of mbezzlement was dwelt upon
at length by both sides. The defense
claimed that Flipper could not be convicted
legally under the charges. That aside
from that he was entirely innocent
Of anY guilty intention or conduct tending
to establish embezzlement. That he had
been careless in his manner OF selling com
missaries to the men and to the lsundries
on time and in not collecting the money.
but he was not dishonest. That when he
discovered his shortage he was afraid to
speak of it because of his peculiar position
in the army, and he was thus led into max
ing false statement, hoping to be able to
raise the money to make his accounts good.
