A CORNER IN GUM ARABIC.
The Prophets Revolution I'm Egypt
Seriously Affects the Market.

Seriously Affects the MarHet.
New YORK, February 5.--There are only
three houses in this country that deal ex-
cIusively in gum arabic. Two are in New
York and one in Philadelphia. The oper-
atoms OF FL Mahdi having shut off the esup-
ply from Soudan, no gum is now coming
down the Nile. The annual supply from
there is from 10000 to 5000 bags, holding
from 400 to 800 pounds each, 6,OoO Of which
come to this country. In speaking OF the
matter yesterday, dealer said that the
men who gathered the gum were fighting
in FL Msbdi's army, and that, moreover,
the Greek merchants could not reach khar-
toum, the market, They took jeweiry,
guns and ammunition to exchange for the
gum. These would be conhscated II they
attempted to 90 to Khartoum now. Hardly
any gum, the dealer added, had come for ward
ior wear. A years supply has been prac-
ticsIly cut of. The average stock OF sorts
in London is from 5000 TO 10000 bags
The London market. however, has been
drawn on to such an extent thai not OOO
BAGS are left. Even if the war were sop.
ped now it would take three months to get
gum to London. Tbe gum houses, it is
said, have doubled their capitals on the
advance. One house made $1,000 on 10
bags il never saw. Since October prime
white sorts have gone mp from 10 to %
cents, and first piekinRs from "a TO 40. The

heavily by the advance. The concern in

THE RAILROADS FLOODED
And High Water Prevailing In AL
Northern Ohio.


CLEVELAND, February 5.-Floods have
been feared in this part OF the State to-day,
but thus far no great damage is reported
Here the river raised to nearly a levei with
the docks and an ice gorge was threatened
at the viaduct, but the steam tugs clsared
it and to night the danger OF ireshet is
believed to be passed. The trains this
morning on the three railroads running
south ran through few inches OF water in
several places. The inundation was
ceused by the river and its tributaries over
flUwirg previous to the ice moving out
into the lake. The freshet has suosided in
that direction. AT Findlay the gas works
and streets are under water. Arlington, in
the same county, is deluged and great quau-
titles OF lumber and ship timber has been
swept away. The Valley and Connottoa
Valley railroad tracks from fifteen TO forty
miles south are frequently under water,
but no weshouts sre feared. On the Clevs-
land, Lorain and Wheeling there is no
high water north OF MassillOn but south OF
there all the streams are swelling. Goa
station, two miles this side OF the
Ohio river, reports the water very
high and still rising. The Cleveland and
Pittsburgh finds plenty of high water. but
no damage. The New York, Pennsylva.
mia and Ohio reports an ice gorge at Sh?-
ron, Pa, but the track was cleared this
afternoon. at Mea6ville, where the hood
was very destructive year ago, the ice is
going out of the creek without much gorg'
ing. The has been but little damage thus
far aRd the danger is considered past. The
rain was general last night in this section,
but closed this morning. The temperature
is spring like.

MoURNED FOR EIGHTEEN YEARS.
A Romance Out Of the Dusty Records
OF the Pension Office.

n
OF the Pension Office.
WASHINGTON, February 5.-About six
years ago Eli Johnson, who served in Com
pany G, First California Cavalry, during
the war, applied to the Pension Depart
ment for pension and arrearages. Accord
ing to his story his wife, who lived in Ohio,
died while he was soldier. He went into
mining, and is now at Luning, Esmeralda
county, of that State. Thinking that there
WIS an unnecessary delay in getting his
pension case through, though there are
plenty of them that have been under con-
sideration ten years, he wrote to Represen-
tatiye Cassidy 10 use his influence in bur.
rying up matters little. Mr.. Cassidy went
to the pension Office TO look the case up,
and was surprised to find that
woman claiming to be the widow
OF Eli Johnson, residing at Florida,
Henry county, Ohio, had put in
an application for his pension. She gave
the name Of his company and regiment,
and said she had undoubted information
of his death. Her application was filed
about three years since. she stated that
she only claimed his pension and arrear-
age, about 5000 in all, ap to 1873, having
at that time married a Mr.. Sill and that
she now resided at Florida, Henry county,
Ohio. Mr.. Cassidy took copy of all the
papers in the case and sent them to Mr..
Johnson. The end Of the matter Is not yet
reached. 1t is thought that the marriage
of the woman will baYe to be declared null
and void, and that Mr.. Sill will get left, as
she will return to her husband, whose ex-
istence she ascertained IN such peculiar
way. Mr.. johnson is very much pleased
with Mr.. Cassidys efforts, for they not
only will get him his pension, but will
bring him back his wife whom he had
mouIned as tead for over eighteen years.

GALLANT JACK AND YOUTHFUL BOB.
The Elder Illinois Statesman Jealous
OF the Younger.

OF the Younger.
NEW YoRK, February 5.-The Sun in q
Washington special says: The Black War
rior Of Illinois is in dead earnest after the
Chicago nomination. He il using all his
resources Of strategy and grammar to get it.
A recent canvass Of Illinois shows that
Lincoln, who is not a candidate in the
sense that Logan is, looms up close benin d
and bids fair 10 distance him. This has
stirred the Black Warrior immensely.
Logan's special animosity is Arthur, to
whose arts Lincoln's prominence is as
cribed. Logan chooses to believe, or says
he does, that the nomination lies be-
tween him and Arthur. For Lincoln he
affects contempt. When Logan says con.
tempt he means great deal. OF Lincoln
he speaks as helpless lawyer, an insur-
ance sgent, whom accidest which only
could occur, as he says, when Garfield was
on top-on top being Loganism-made
Secretary of War, something to which the
country submitted for the sake of his
fathers memory. Toward Lincoln, logan
has of late become pronounced in his con
tempt. He is disposed to be furious be
cause the canvass referred to shows that
Lincoln, without trying, is so closely on
his heels.
\ Lincoln's popularity IN his own State is
sspaaially annoying to Logan, because he
has been ass int as an argument against
Arthur, his only opponent, that whoever
could not come into the convention with
his own State solid at his back should not
be considered; the idea being that, whereas
New York would be divided as to Arthur,
Illinois would be solid for Logan.
Reports aside from what the papers say
leave no doubt that Lincoln could play
havoc with tllinois's devotion 10 Logan.
In any event the State is likely to be di-
viGed between Lincoln and Logan, unleJs
in the spirit of magnanimity the former
forbids it. 1t is unspeakaoly annoying to
the Black Warrior that the Insurance
Agent should, without raising a tipger or
msking a sign, have become the dreaded
dark horse OF the canvass. He lays it to
Arthur, and declares Shat it is about what
might be expected frolu one whose ideas
of sratemansnip were got in ward school
p ~.

A HOLE IN HIS BRAIN.
A Remarkable Il Surgical Operation Per.
formed in New York.

Remarkable SurStcal operation Per-
formed in New York.
New YORK, February 5.-Last week there
was telegraphed from here an account Of an
Unusual surgical operation performed in
Bellevue Hospital upon Bruno Knorr, who
shot himself on January "a. The bullet
er tered the forehead, and, passing through
tie brain, lodged in the back of the head.
A hole was cut in the back of the skull
and the bullet was taken out in that way.
A perforated rubber tube was passed
through to drain the brain Of all extrane-
Gus matter.
To-day the rubber tube was withdrawn
and two strands OF catgut were passed
through the hole and the operation was
finished. As the brain closes together the
catgut will be gradually absorbed and the
holes in the skull will be closed by
fibrous tissue. During the withdrawal OF
the tube Kuorr was perfectly conscious,
laughing and talking with the medical
stten jauts, and evidently much interested
in the opening OF tunnel through the
head. He says he doesn't want to die now;
he is too curious as to the result OF the op-
Grafton. He has become quite q hero in
the eyes of the young woman on whose
account he attempted suicide, and she vis-
its him at the hospital every day.

WASHINGTON, February 5.-The Mlssis-

the largest and most substantial body yet
assembled in the aid Of river improvement
OF the West Virginia delegates Thomas
Sweeney was made Chairman; Captain
Mcclure was appoin ted Vice President;
Colonel Alex. Campbell was placed on the
Committee on Permanent Organization;
Lewis Baker on Resolutions, and Colonel
George Thompson on Order OF Business.
The convention will probably hold two
days longer.
As indicated by these dispatches the
motion to advance hearing OF the tax case
Of West Virginia against the Chesapeake &
Ohio railroad was denied. 1t will probably
not now be reached in regular order during
the present year. Attorney General Watts
who is here says the delay will not neces-
sarily occasion an extra session OF the Leg
islature, but will continue the present in
convenience.
Colonel Alex. Campbell, the West Vir-
ginia member of the Democratic Executive
Committee, who is here, thinks it not un-
likely Cincinnati or st. Louis will be &C.
