Disarected cabinet Omeers.

Washington, March 3O.-There is q
rumor that Attorney General Mcveigh>will
shortly retire from the cabinet on account Of
a disagreement with the president touching
the nominations of Stanly Matthews and
William Chandler. In the department of JUS
tice. the question leading to the disagreement
of Attorney General Nc Veighand Postmaster
General James, were briefly considered. II
is said in to-day's cabinet meeting that the
president will make a firm stand in defense
ofthe nominations of Chandler and Robert
son, and no one seems to believe for q u O.
ment that the name Of either will be with
drawn. IF in consequence then of the confir-
nation Of either or both of these gentlemen,
Postmaster General James or Attorney Gen
eral McVeigh find it incompatible with
their ideas to remain in the cabinet, it is
believed that their resignation will be
promptly accepted and new men appointed
in their places.without delay. There is good
authority for the. statement that Attorney
General. McVeigh opposed Mr.. Chandler's
selection.

A Homicide mt Jefferson,

special TO the HeraId.
Jefferson, April 1.-Yesterday a dissolute
character, known as William Cussart, was
shot and killed here by Deputy Sheriff
Charles Rowell. Cussart had been drinking
considerably of late, and had been in the
habit Of whipping his wife whenever he got
on a spree. She was subjected to this brutal
treatment yesterday morning, when she
made complaint to officer Rowell, who in
company with another man, went to Cussart's
house for the purpose of arrestipg him.
Cussart was at homo in bed, and on being
told BY the officer that he. must go
with him, swore that he would not
bulge an inch without the officer could pro-
duce q warrant. Rowell not wishing to make
any trouble started to leave the house, when
Oussart drew a pistol and fred at the officer
and the man accompanying him, whereupon
the party with Rowell broke and ran away.
Rowell retreated from the house, Cusssrt
shooting at him all the time. Rowell then
drew his pistol and fred three times at
Cussart, each of the shots taking effect, from
which wounds Cussart died. Rowell was not
hurt. Mrs. Cussart exhonerates Rowell from
all blame in killing her husband, and testified
that it was done in self defense.

GAINESVILLE.

0hImHvIhh0s
Special to the Herald.
Gainesville, April 1.--About 2 o'clock
yesterday morning our city was aroused by
the alarm of fire. When first discovered
the fire was in the upper story of SCOTS
frame building, on the east side of the pub
lie square, from which a two story frame
building on the south, belonging to Honora-
BILE T. M. Dsugherty, caught and was con-
sumed. On the north side of the buildisg
where the flames were first discovered, were
two two-story bricks, one belonging TO Mr..
B. f. Scott, and the other to Dr.. Salmon.
Both were destroyed, and back of the bricks
a restaurant was burned. By the almost
superhpman efforts of our hook and ladder
company the flames we're prevented from
spreading further, though there we're several
wood and brick buildings peculiarly OK
posed. The north wall Of the Salmon
building fell out in California street. When
il fell, the street was full of men, but
only one was killed, a negro,
that is known of yet. Considerable excite
ment prevailed all day Thursday, as il was
rumored there were others under the debris.
Several men were injured but no other dead
have been found. The citizens are subscrib-
ing quite literally for the benefit of the fire
boys. The loss is supposed to be about
500. 600.
