THE SITUATION CRITICAL AT HELENA, ARK.
HELENA, ARK, March THE gale last
night and to-day has lashed the river into
fury, and the struggle TO save imperilled
lives bas been desperate. A message from
the Long Lake division, four miles south,
SAYS without one hundred men the levee
cannot be held another hour. A squad OF
fifty has just gone down, and more will
quickly follow. The situation Is extremely
critical. The leyee protecting Helena Is
still intact. Active work upon II Is going
forward, but it Is I'm precari0us condition
In many phces. The only hope Ia in the
wind calming down.
ST. LOUIS. March IA dispatch from
Helena, Ark, says the breaking OF the
leyee near Friar's Point yesterday will be
very disastrous TO large number OF
planters and other people in that section.
and that good deal Of land never under
water before will be now overlooked.
Friar's Point delta and all the towns for
twenty miles back from the river will be
greatly damaged, and planters will lose
much live stock, corn, and other supplies.
Accounts from western Tennessee say
that great damage has been done in Lake
and other counties along the river. Much
stock has been lost, and many houses,
fences, and 4 good deal Of corn and cotton
have been swept away. Some OF the towns
are completely isolated, but no actual
suffering among the people Is yet reported.
New ORLEANS, March THE Plea
pine's special from Mayersville, Miss,
SAYS the Protection levee OF Elleslie has
just given away q p. NJ, and the water
rushed through the gap in the main 'eyee.
Duncan's Quarters are now under water.
A sufficient force is at work stopping the
gap, and not much damage Is apprehended.
MORE UNAVOIDABLE REPORTS.
The Picdgune's Vicksburg special says:
1.-THE news from all points in this section
Is unfavorable. The backwater almost
surrounds Delta. La, and work Will have
TO be suspended"
Captain w. L. Marshall, United States
Engineer. has received the following:
EiteSlie, Mss, March THE Protection
levee gave way in the storm Mt 3 O'Clock
this morning. The main levee broke In
three places. At A. NJ. the gap at Sta
ton 81 was 300 feet wide; at Station 60 il
is 10 feet wide and feet deep. Have sue
ceeded In closing one small break. Others
beyond control.
[Signedl T. NJ. JACK,
United States Levee Inspector.
The giving away Of the levee at Elleslie
will cause serious damage to the lower por-
ton Of Issaquim county. and will overflow
plantations of Keep, Dunbar, Hunt, Mag
nolia, Mount Laurel. Wilderness, Wade
town, Harris. Cloverbill, and Duncan
Ridge. Captain Marshall fears the storm
Of last night has done serious damage to
other points which cannot be reached by

STANTON, March Z, 1888.
Time deepens the mystery without weak.
oniug the public interest concerning the
six deaths which lately occurred in the
Western Lunatic Asylum at tins place.
Your resident correspondent reported the
facts faithfully and well. He secured the
field, and so far as present information Is
concerned leaves 10 those who write after
him only a narrow margin for the display
Of enterprise.
That the men died by poison admits OF
no question. That the poison was con-
coaled in the little glass mugs which con-
tanned the medicine administered OH the
r,orning of the oath ultimo is also con-
coded. As 10 what the poison was Pro-
lessor Mallei will in due time report, and
fill then probably the most trusty guess is
in the following extract from the testimony
of DIR. Hamilton. the superintendent, given
10 the coroner. He said:
.sTaking the cases singly or collectively,
was satisfied by the absence OF te;anic and
other Characteristic symptoms that the
poison could be neither arsenic, strycb-
mia, nor any Of their preparations. or other
nelson's most commonly res0rted to: end

deaths OF the fatal eases, the symptoms ex-
bibited by the Survivors, such as dila-
tatlon OF the eyes, great prostration, utter
want OF muscular power, the comatose
condition Of all. and the nervous manIfes-
tations. as eyineed, as well in epileptics rs
in the other types OF mental maladies pos
sessed by the several victims, led me 10
suspect prllsSic acid or cyanide Of potash.
or. possibly aconite had been the fatal
agent"
Or. BUTLER TIE DRUGGIST.
DIR. W. W. :. Butler. the third assistant
physician, is the druggist Of the asylum.
He i graduate OF medicine, and before
entering upon the practice OF that profess
sion had three and half years experience
in a retail drugstore at HarTisonburg. He
came into his present position with the new
administration. AS TO the fatal occurrence
he talks readily. The most pointed ques-
tions fail to make him hesitate in the slight
est. From the fact that most Of the medi-
cine he sent forth was an iron tonic. and
that that was poured from gallon jar,
where il is always kept in quantity, he
holds il an established fact that the poi
son was put In after it left his hands, since
i'm some of these very tOnic-mugs the poi
son was carried TO the patients. Several OF
those who died received the poison in the
tonic, as follows;
