THE Hon. Richard Crowley seems to be
trembling on the brink of some awful fate.
The Hon. Roscoe Conkling has said that he
"will settle with Crowley, but not through
the newspapers" Are we to understand
the ex-senator to refer to the Marquis of
Queensberry rules or is he contemplating
the code of Galway as oxpounded by the
late Sir j. harrington? 1t will be remem-
bered that the Galway code was designed to
be instantaneously fatal to both principals
and exceedingly dangerous to tho seconds.

LATE NEWS ITEMS.

The Senate was lloU in session on the
10Th. The day session OF the House was
almost entirely taken up with the discus
sion of resolution introduced by Mr.
Warner (of Ohio, who claims That ms
colleague, ]. D. Taylor, during the recess
had printed in the Record speech thaV
was not delivered on the floor, and wnlch
reflected on commit ees of the Senate anu
the House, on members, and on the House
itself. He wanted that speech expunSed
from the Record. 1t seems that the speech
referred to was thrust at pension legis-
lation, and Mr.. Warner was chairman OF
the House Committee having in charge
some special pension matters. Mr.. Warner
animadverted on the prevailing custom OF
printing speeches in the Record that are
never delivered on the floor. On this lat
ter point Mr.. Cox (of New York; was
colled 20 his feet: and the debate was both

A WICKED ACT.

Alleged Attempt to Blow Up an Entire
Family In Order to wreak Vengeance on
One Member-One of the Outcroppings of
the Ohio Miners Strike.
COLUMBUS, o., December l2.
Nelsonville is terribly excited over the
attempt of an unknown person to blow up
the house of Richard Barnecutt and kill
his family, between nine and ten O'Clock
last night. The house is located on the
hillside, at the edge Of town, and the in
tention seems to have been to roll the
dynamite or explosive against the house
and turn it over and
DOWN THE NIL.
But from the manner in which 1t was
rolled it missed its aim and lodged under
the porch below, where the explosion oc-
CURED, which tore the porch nearly 10
shreds. The house otherwise was not
injured, and Barnecutt and wife, with
Ave Children escaped. The explosion was
heard all over that part Of the country,
and soon several hundred people had
gathered at the scene of intended de-
struction. The citizens are greatly eX-
cited over the occurrence, and there is
talk among them of having the town
placed under strong rule. This informa-
tion, which was secured at the Office of
the Coal Exchange, says no one could be
found on the streets Immediately after
the explosion occurred, and this is taken
as indication that some Of the rlotous
element among the
STRIKERS DID THE WORK.
Barnecutt, who was one of the strikers,
went to work for the Coal Exchange
one week ago last Monday, and since
that time his son has been assaulted on
the streets of the town. One of the syn
dictate operators telegrphs that he saw,
last night, several bright lights in the
direction of Nelsonyille, but the opera
tor at the latter place has reported no
fires. There is another report from this
source that at an open meeting of the
strikers yesterday they concluded to make
an attack at Happy Hollow last night, ii
the weather was of a favorable character,
but as nothing has been heard from that
quarter, it is supposed that nothing OF
the kind has occurred.

CHATTANOOGA. TENN, December l2.
An old man named Freeman was brutally
murdered in his house Wednesday night
near Madison, Ala, on the Memphis
Road, BY two negroes. They had an AK
as weapon aud literally cut him to
pieces, his brains being laid bare and his
head almost severed from his body. The
butchers were arrested and one Of them
named johnson confessed that they COM
mitted the deed. Last night
when the Sheriff started to con-
yey the prisoners to huntsville for
safe keeping mob of 200 whites
and blacks assembled at the depot TO
lynch the murderers. Just as the train
rolled in the widest scene ensued. The
negroes, thinking they would soon be in
the hands of the mob, commenced pray
| ing, while the howling mob shrieked for
some one to lead them TO seize the
/ negroes. The Sheriff, bya skillful move
| ment got the negroes aboard the train,
which came near being wrecked by the
lynchers. They are now in the Hunts
! vile jail.

A SPOILED SENSATION.
The story of the Resurrection of Miss Es-
telle Newman Denied by Friends of the
Deceased Young Lady.

The story of the Resurrection of Miss Es-
teIIe Newman Denied by Friends of the
Deceased Young Lady.
ALBANY, N. Y, December r.
The sensational resurrection story,
which was located in the little village of
Egremont, in the Berkshire hills, is pro-
nounced hoax. 1t was claimed that the
body of Miss Estelle Newman, a young
woman who was supposed to have died
from spinal complaint, was. disinterred
by medical students. 1t was said that
life returned to the body while it was be-
ing dissected, and that the young lady is
now alive in an Insane Asylum in Scho-
harie County.
prominent physician declares that
even IL Miss Newman had not been dead
when buried, the confinement in the
grave would have ended her life before
resurrection. Besides, there is no insane
ASYLUM In the county named. The story
receives another blow in the statement OF
w. r. Wright, of Hudson, N. Y, who
denies that his brother, the late DR..
Wright ever confessed to him about
taking the body of Miss Newton TO
Albany.
Mrs. Chapel, sister Of Miss Newman,
| and Mrs. Newman, their mother, dis
credits the story. Her mania took the
| form of conviction that she must not cat,
and she died from starvation AID spinal
complaint Her flesh was SO wasted thai
\ it was thought impossible she could have
been brought back TO life.
