down into the face of the dead and around
 the bier eleven candles burned. Four
 Knights of St. John in full uniform with
 drawn swords, two on each side, stand
 guard. The body is clad in full canonical
 vestments. Beside 1t lie the crosier and
 other emblems of the office and under the mitred head lies the wool covered archi- episcopal cross. The features are made full and free from wrinkles by the embalming process. Otherwise they appear natural and characteristic. Great crowds assem- bled at the depot and followed the solemn cortege to the episcopal residence, where larger crowd stood waiting, with heads un- covered. Visitors, viewing the body, pass in at one door and, walking around the bier, pass out at another. At nine tonight the doors were closed, to be opened again at six in the morning. Last night the marble cross and stone spire, 224 feet high, were draped In mourning by the same man whom the archbishop on July 4, 1876, employed to hoist the United States flag above that same cross.

Found Guilty of Murder-A Sensational
 Case.
 JACKSONVILLE, July 8.-A special to the Times Union from Orlando, Orange county, Fla, says: ssThe trial of Archibald B. Newton for killing Samuel McMillan near Sanford in October last, closed yesterday with verdict of guilty. The circumstances of the murder were highly sensational. Mo Milan had the reputation of being miser and was supposed to have a large sum of money always with him. Newton, who is an East Indian by birth, lived near McMillan and was poor. McMillan disappeared on Sep tember 30, and shortly afterward Newton and his wife were very flush of money. On Oc. tober 17, McMillan's headless body was found in Crystal Lake, having been partly consumed by fish. Around the waist was 8 rope, which was tied to 8 pot of nails The rope pot and nails were proved to be property of Newton. The evidence was wholly circumstantial and the trial was bit terly contested by eminent counsel employed by English relatives of Newton The jury was out four hours.

Sunday Liquor Traffic i'm St. Louis.
 ST. LOUIS, July s.-The Republican prints this morning an interview with Governor Crittenden. in which he announces his de- termination to enforce the Downing bill in every respect. One feature of the bill is the prohibition of the sale of all kinds of liquors on Sunday or the keeping open of saloons. This provision especially, the Governor says, shall be enforced. It is an old law, having been on the statute book for many years, but has been dead letter. The Downing bill, passed by the last Legislature, imposes high iceuse on dramshops and the Govern or says ''revitalizes the old statute to such an extent that view it as 8 mandate from the people and will enforce it accordingly .'s He also hints that if the present St. Louis cannot or will not enforce it others can be found who will.

The Lotteries Refused Mail Privileges
 Postmaster General Gresham's Ordt

The Lotteries Refused Mail PrtviIeges-
 Postmaster General Greshams Order
 Promulgated.
 WASHINGTON, July S.-Postmaster General Gresham.s decision in the Louisiana lottery case was given to the press tonight. The effect of the decision is to restore Postmaster General Keys original order of November 18th, 1879, which prohibited the delivery of money orders and registered letters to the lottery company. General Gresham after referring to and reciting Postmaster General Keys original prohibitory order of Novem- Der 18th, 1879, and subsequent suspensory order of February 27th, 1880, says: 'It appears by the recitaIs that suit had been brought to enjoin the execution of the first order and that the complainant had appealed the case to the Supreme court of the United States. The decree therefore of the court of original jurisdiction was adverse to him and the Postmaster General consented to temporary suspension of that order un- til the case should have been heard and determined by the tribunal of last resort. The previous order was not marked or cancelled. If such had been the intention of the Postmaster General it would have been expressly declared. It was simply and in effect provided that during the pendency of the appeal the execution of the preceding order should be suspended. The dismissal of the appeal therefore in vacation by the appellants counsel with the consent of the solicitor general put an end to the suspension and restored the binding effect of the order" After stating that there is no difference be- tween perpetual suspension and a revoca- ton and citing section 3,S94 of the postal laws and regulations he closes as follows
 II have confined myself to the matters as they appear from the records of the department. Something was stated by counsel representing parties in the interest as to verbal agreements or un- derstandings,' but have not felt at liberty to consider any other facts than such as the departments record establish. The first or- der will be executed as if the second had not been entered.'

The Cholera SpreRdinG-A Number of
 Deaths Yesterday-One Death at Alex
 andria.
 ALEXANDRIA, July s.-The cholera is now admitted to have appeared at Menzaleh, although it has for some days been believed to be present there. To-day there were eleven deaths in the town. At Damietta there were ninety-six deaths, at Mansdurah forty-eight and at Samanoud eight. To-day a death from cholera oc- cured here and the fact is officially ad- mitted, corroborating your despatch of yes- terday that death from cholera had already occurred and efforts had been made to con- ceal the fact. The feeling and excitement are intense The danger is very great and there is no way of averting it since the city is filled with refugees from many exposed points, and such of them as wish to depart are unable to do so since the steamships will not carry passengers who are likely to be subjected to long and costly quarantine at so many ports. Hundreds of refugees escaped from Menzaleh before the sanitary cordon could be perfected

Secretary Lincoln, General Crook and MT. Price, Commissioner of Indian Affairs, had conference at the War department yesterday afternoon in regard to the disposition of the
 captured Apache Indians, when it was deter
 mined that the Apache Indians recently cap-
 tured by General Crook and all such as may
 be hereafter captured, or may surrender
 themselves to him, shall be kept under the
 control of the War department at such points
 on the San Carlos reservation as may be de-
 termined by the War department (but not at
 the agency. without the consent of the Indian
 agent). to be fed and cared for by the War
 department until further orders. For the
 greater security of the people of Arizona and
 to insure peace, the War department shall be
 intrusted with the entire police control of all the Indians on the San Carlos reservation and charged with the duty of keeping the peace on the reservation and preventing the Indians from leaving it except with the consent of General Crook or the officers who may be au- thorized to act under him.
 The War department shall protect the h. dian agent in the discharge of his duties as agent, which shall include the ordinary duties of an Indian agent, which shall remain as heretofore, except as to keeping the peace administering justice and punishing refrae- tory Indians; all of which shall be done by the War department, as above stated
 General Crook says the agreement is en- tirely satisfactory to him. It will be, in his opinion, productive of lasting peace and the development of the self-sustaining energy which the Apaches are in pre-eminent meas ure capable of showing. The general thinks that within very short time every Apache | outside the reservation will be glad to join | their comrades and that with 8 wise admins | tration of affairs at the agency nothing more | need be apprehended from the former pests | of civilization in Arizona, New Mexico and | the upper part of old Mexico.

He showed | some signs before his season closed, some- times forgetting his lines and acting strangely. But since then he has been growing worse | The cause assigned is that he and Billy Con- | nor, his manager, became partners in the | St. James Hotel, in New York and John put | all the money he had in the venture, which | has not proved successful. |
