BLOOD AND MYSTERY
Biddcford Excited Over Evidences of u
Tragedy.

BIpDEFoED, Me-, Dec 31.-A large guam
tity of blood and hair was found Sunday
morning at street corner, trampled into the
snow indicating Il struggle, aud perhaps
murder Physicians say blood enough was
visible to have caused the death of any hu.
man being. Important revelations in the
supposed murder were ascertaned from DR..
Grafton this afternoon. He says that some.
time on Saturday night he was called on by
two men, who induced him to 20 with them.
They refused their names. When they
reached Franklin street they put randagc
over his eyes aud led him through several
streets near the Methodist church. They
led him into an uncarpeted bedroom with a
painted floor where he was locked in,
his companions leaving him. Here
he found young woman with a
deep cash extending from her right
tar down her throat. She was
extremely low from loss of blood. She said
Doctor for Gods sake save my life" He
feared she would die while there, and
doesn't think she could have lived five min
ntes longer had he not been present. He
connected the arteries and bandagcd the
wound. lie knocked at the door and was
Immediately taken to another room, where

Knocked in. After trelilng this patient he
was taken back to Franklin street bind

TO RELIEVE GREEDY,
The Probable Whereabouts and Condi
ton OF the Colony Discu,sed

WAsHINGToN, D. c., Jan. Capt. Ty
son, of Hall Arctic expedition fame. was to-
day before he'board to consider the matte:
of sending an expedition for the relief Of
Lieut.. Greedy. He said he would secure
30O-ton steamer to sail early in June to ar
rive in the Arctic by July LIST. He would
reach Cape York aud, not finding the mis-
sing men there, would push on to Littletor
Island. hunting along the coast as far as the
water would permit. Not finding Greely
at Ltteton Island he would cross to the west
coast, If he found no trace of Greedy there
he would have two whalebOats fitted out and
proceed to the northward from the point
where the ice was encountered. He would
not in any event put the ship into the ice.
lie would proceed by boats, by the land
water which can nearly always be
found along the west shore coast Of Smith
Sound. No reliance should be placed
on sledges nor should Esqumo be employed.
If the Greeley party were well they would
probably be found at Llttlcton Island. They
had suffered some no doubt, but there was
an abur dance OF game during the Winter at
Littleton Island, and even without fuel if
they could get plenty of animal food they
would not suffer seriously from cold. Tyson
could see no good reason for sending a naval
tender with the relief ship.
Lieut. Hunt one Of the officers of the
Rodgers in her expedition in search of the
Jeanette, gave his views upon the organiza-
ton OF the proposed expedition.
Lieut.. Darlington gave the story IF his ex.
perlence in the North. He thought Greedy
would I've found on the coast of Greenland,
unless his party was so weakened that he
could not make Spring sledge journey. He
ana not think the party left Lady Franklin
bay last Fall.
A letter was received from Gen. Miles re-
commencing that Lieut.. Schwatka be placed
in command of the expedition.

WASHINGTON, y. c., Jan. 2.--The sOici-
tor Of the treasury was notified {, day tina,
there would be submitted to him Friday OF
Saturday questions that have recently arisen
fin connection with the work Of recovering
the treasure supposed to be lying in the
wreck of the British frigate Hussar at the
bottom Of the East river just below Port
Morris. The Hussar was wrecked Nov "a,
1880 while on her way to Norwich, Conn. 1t
is supposed she had on board nearly II mil
lion sterling which vas intended for the pay
meut Of the British troops, and also 20 Amer
lean prisoners, chained on the gun deck.
The ship struck on Pot rock in Hell Gate.
The commander finding her in sinking con-
dition endeavored to beach her but
she was floalcd off by the tide and
sank where her remains now lie in
about 30 feet of water. Attempts hive
been made at intervals for many years to re-
cover the treasure which it is believed went
down with her, but on account Of the great
depth of water and the swifness Of the tide
ia the channel where the wreck lies, all such
attempts have been frultless. The company
now engaged in the work undertook ii at its
own expense and risk, upon the agreement
with the United States government that they
should have 80 per cent of all the money re-
covered, the United States to have the re-
mainder, with all the relics of value which
might be found. From the fact that n legal
question has arisen concerning the sunlicn
treasure aud that it is to be submitted to the
law officer of the treasury, the inference is
drawn that there is better prospect than ever
before Of the recovery of the money.

THE SDUDAN WAR.
Hhe lusurrectiOn most Formidable
Peril of the Sincat Garrison

LONDON, Dec. 3l.-A despatch to tho
Daily News from Suakin says; Ed Mahd
intends to descend upon Egypt. The insur-
reciionary movement is spreading along tho
coast, and Baker Pasha is Convinced that if
is Of the most formidable religio-polirical
character The Abysssnian demonstration
on the kassala road renders the situation
still more critical, Nothing can be done at
present as an immediate advance would mean
disaster. British gunDoats have gone to
Mossowah. One thousand women and chill.
dren with 400 soldiers are brayely
holding out at Sincat. Even with PROMPT.
est action on the part of England there will
be barely time to save those people from a
terrible fate. 1t is believed that there are
10000 rebels between Suakim and Sincat.
Should the Egyptians attempt to march to
Berber it is believed that 100 900 rebels
would oppose them.
A general order was issued Monday an
nouncing the appointment of Baker Pasha as
COVER or general of Eastern Soudan.
Mayor Holroyd, British officer, has been
dismissed from the Egyptian service for

RE became Acquainted With Grief.
From the Windsor Journal,


He was a lad of seven years, and, doubt
less without the knowledge of his parents,
packed his skates under his arm and skipped
over to the pond for an hours sport. lie
broke through and driftcd some distance un-
der the ice. Before life was extinct howev-
ever, he caught hold of an alder bush in the
water, bumped himself up through the ice
and escaped watcry grave. At sixteen he
enlisted in the army and was shot in the arm
at the very first skrmsh lie came home,
recovered, ard went back into the service. At
the battle Of Malvern Hill, shell from the
encmy's works landed between his feet and
burst, blowing off his teft hip and heel, and
tearing to pieces his right leg SO it had to be
amputated, besides unfolding two bullets in
his left foot which remain there to this day.
When the wounded were picked up the next
day, this unfortunate was left on the field for
dead but while his comrades were pitching
him into the trench with hundreds of others,
on that bloody field, they discovered that this
corpse was alive, and carried him to the hos
pital, where he recovered. On his return,
home, he entered the medical department of
one of our colleges, where he was graduated,
and soon aftcrward located as a practicing
physician not far from Cornth, vt. One day,
while riding out to see O patient, his horse
took fright, throwing the doctor out o; the
buggy, and stiinCirg him all along the road
for several rods. On calling together his
scattered frame, he found three fingers of his
right hand broken. Not long after, while
worku,en were repairing his barn, rafer
came down eadwisp, striking the doctor on
his hat, This caused uneaslness for several
days. The last exploit was in company with
friend making professional call. He took
his pipe out If his mouth ard put il in his
ovcrcoat pocket. Passing a house on the
way, the doctor remarked: Guess they
are burning compost here" Half mile
more aud another house, and another re-
mark: They seem to be burning compost
here, too" The silence Of another half mile
was broken by the doctor exclalmng: 81
swow, | believe they are burniug compost all
along the road :" upon which he suddenly
gave jump ltudiIg by thc roadside in two
feet of snow, while what wqs left of him
seemed to be paying strict attention to his
pipe ocket.
