A stormy Trail.

Lafayette, Ind, July Much
damage was done by the rain storm last
night. The cellars were filed full and
culverts washed away.
Chicago, July 1.-Heavy storms pre-
vailed throughout the northwest early
this morning, and reports are begin
ming to come in of the considerable
damage done to crops in Illinois, Iowa
and Wisconsin. Rock river at James
vile raised three feet in three hours,
and the storm is believed to be the
heaviest in this section for 25 years.
st. Louis, July IA very heavy
rain at Hannibal, Mo-, Wednesday
night, caused Bear creek to rise higher
than was ever known before. The flood
swept through several lumber yards on
it's banks, and carried into the Missis-
sipri river over a half million feet of
lumber. Two or three small houses
were swept away and their inmates
rescued with great difficulty, 1t is re-
ported that six persons were drowned,
but this probably is a mistake as no
bodies have been found. a report from
the country says the wheat is laid fat
with the ground, and a good deal will
be lost.
Chicago, July IAN Oregon, Ills,
special says the storm was of unequalled
severity yesterday. The water rose on

Yesterday afternoon C. NJ. Den
mark, a Union Pacific brakeman, living
at 1873 Eighteenth street, came near to
losing his life while attempting to make
a coupling between two emigrant
coaches which had become detached.
The train came backing down upon the
detached car with a great deal of force.
The drawheads of the two cars passed
n another and Denmark was caught
through the shoulders and chest, be-
tween the two platforms and held there
until the cars drew apart and allowed
him to drop to the ground. He was
able to walk to a chair on the platform
with assistance.
|. A cot vas brought and the injured
man first conveyed to a room in the
Railroad house for medical attendance
The company's physician was called
and examined the man, finding his col
lar bone broken and body somewhat
bruised, but outside of these, in thu
ordinary course of events, a speedy re
covery is expected.

Washington, July 1.-The result of
the autopsy is as follows, as far as car
be learned: After surveying the body
externally the surgeons proceeded to
lay open the brain cavity and thoraX,
and examine the organs therein. The
brain was found to weigh 49l ounces, a
little more than the weight of the aver
age human brain. 1t was well formed,
and presented no external evidences of
disease or lesion. The lungs and the
heart were in normal condition. There
was a slight rufliing of the aorta in the
vicinity of the heart. The neck was
not dislocated or fractured, as the sur
| geons first supposed, but there was a
| rupture of the sterno cleido mastoid
muscle on both sides. 1t follows, there
fore that death resulted from suffoca-
| ton, and not from d~islocation of the
spinal vertebr9.
A partial examination was made OF
the abdomen viscera, but had not been
completed at the time the autopsy was
suspended. The spleen was found to
be considerably enlarged, its weight be.
ing Is ounces, more than twice that OF
the normal spleen. The other aldo.
minal organs, as far as examined, pre-
scented no unusual features. The report
of the surgeons making the autopsy
will probably not be ready for publica.

DR.. Bliss said there were many points
showing good healthy mental and phys.
ical development. DR.. Hartigan, who
has charge of Guiteau's brain, took ii
to the army medical museum, where, in
a room set apart for Photographic pur.
poses, a number of surgeons and physi-
clans had assembled to continue the
autopsy. Among those present were
| DR.. Nichols and Mcdonald of New
York, and Drs. Lamb, Loring, Powers,
Reyburn, Elliott and Goddinng, OF
Washington. All direction of opera,
lions was given by DR.. Lamb. 1t had
been the intention of the surgeons to
begin by making plaster casts of the
brain with a view to permanent preser-
yation in that form Of its confguration
and external characteristics, but the
organ was found to he SO soft and yield
ing as to render it impracticable Re-
sort was therefore had to photography.
On account of the lateness of the hour
and the dull and overcast sky, prepara-
tions were necessarily hurried, but after
placing the brain on a mass of curled
hair, such as used in upholstering, and
disposing it in the form in which it had
been during life, a number of negatives
were taken from various points Of view
with more or less successful results.
The anatomical examination was then
resumed. This examination will in
clude a careful microscopic study of the
tissues and structural characteristics of
the organ.
The surgeons and physicians partici-
pating in the autopsy have pledged
themselves not to make public in the
meantime any individual conclusions
they may arrive at, in order that the
official report when made may have full
weight and value, rs representing the
conclusions of all of the examining
physicinns

lieutenant is created unless a first
Lieutenant, or else the senior second

In many places the track is washed

damage can be repaired in time not to

TEMPERANCE LECTURE IN COURT
In the Shape of $ Battered and Bleeding
Husband and a Painting Wife.

In the Shape of $ Battered and Bleeding
Husband and Painting Wife.
Upon the opening of the police court yes
terday morning a scene transpired which for
sod and pathetic interest has seldom been
eoualled in this city. Wednesday evening a
man named II. White was arrested for assault
ing his wife with q butcher knife while crazy
drunk. The parties reside in Brunson's addi-
tion. where, previous to her marriage, which
occurred about three months ago, the woman
conducted a boarding house. White was a
boarder, and in course of time he wooed and won
the hand and heart of the widow. Since their
marriage Mrs. White has continued to run the
boarding house. A few days since White got
on spree, and while crazy drunk Wednesday
he committed the assault, and had not a
boarder named j. 6. Cooper interfered, the
affair would have eliminated in a tragedy.
The latter overpowered White, and two of his
fingers nearly cut off for his trouble.
But to the scene which could be depicted in
proper colors only by the genius of Raphael,
or the master hand of one of the antique paint
ers of human agony and emotion.
At O'Clock White was brought into court
in the custody of an officer, his head being
terribly battered and his general aspect wild,
bloody and repulsive. Upon seeing the change
whiskey, debauching and blood had wrought
in his since manly form, Mrs. White, who Oc-
cupied seat among the witnesses, uttered a
faint scream and fell to the floor in swoon.
She was carried to the clerks room and did
NOT recover consciousness for nearly an hour
when she was conveyed home in hack.
While this was going on, the expression of
remorse, despair and agony on Whites face
would have been more eloquent sermon on
the vice of intemperance than has ever been
even dreamed of in the mind of man. The
fellows eyes glared and seemed to start from
their sockets, the muscles of the face
twitched in agony, his hands clutched nervi-
ously and with appealing look of unutterable
wistfulness as she was carried out, his head
dropped nerveless on his bosom.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 19.-Gen. Jacob D. Cox
has furnished the following answer to his
Fitz John Porter letter for publication:
House of Representatives, Washington,
Dec. Is, 1S80-My Dear Cox: In our twenty
five years of acquaintance and friendship you
have never done greater service to the truth,
or given me so valuable help as your letter
of the 18th inst, which / have just received.
/ have been so stung by the decision of the
Scofield {board that it is very hard to trust my
own mind to speak of it as it appears to me.
have made a strong effort to separate my
self from the case and to look at it intel
lectually as though it related only to the
pieces on a chess board, and not to living
men, or men who had ever lived, and all my
best efforts have brought me pre-
cisely to~the conclusions Of your letter.
Still, I had not yet made in the light
of the new testimony, as careful an ex
animation of the field and map as you have
done. But how curious it is that when you
say now, with the new maps before you, in
the exact picture of the field and Porter's con-
duct upon it, which glowed in the strong
colors in the mind of the court martial seven
teen years ago, and now my dear friend,
need your help, still further 1 need it more
than ever in our acquaintance. Overwhelmed
as am with the current daily work of the
house, it is almost impossible for us to get
the time to go infinitely through all the maps
of this new evidence as ought to do. With
