The Mission of Reltef-Cruise OF the Yes
sells Carrying Aida Graveyard Wash cd
or By the WaterK-CorpseS and Human
Bones Floating on the Stream-Sad
Pictures From the Flooded Regions.
P1TTsBURG, Feb. IA special from
Parkersburg, W. Va, says the crew of the
Iron City (Pittsburg press and citizens relief
boat began Sunday by rendering relief to
the town of Harmer opposite Marietta. 1t
has a population of 800 and $50 of them
have to be fed and provided for. Near
~ every house in the place is
provisions sufficient to last until they are
reached with government relief. The town of
Marietta is still two thirds under water.
Some of the buildings have fallen in ruins
and many others viii go. Two fine bridges
are wrecked and the losses to the Ohio Valley
railroad company will reach 1866, 600.
Ono of the shocking scenes of
the flood was graveyard be-
low Cochraneville wherein many coffns had
been unearthed and several bodies carried
down the river. Skulls and bones were un-
covered and mingled with driftwood and
debris of every description Ont of one
hundred houses in Cochransville only three
were left standing. The residents were in q
naked, starving condition, being practically
| for the boat and when bread was handed
out sat down and tearing the loaves apart ate
with greed and ravenous energy eager to allay
the terrible pangs of starvation. Women and
children were barefoot and some were
protected from the cold by thin calico dresses
| only. Some of the women were on their
knees praying in the little storm and food
battered church when the relief came and
never was it more welcome. On the way to
| Parkersburg the same succession of ruined
! homes was encountered. This city is in 9
| bad condition in the lower part The fouuda-
| ton of the North Methodist church, which
cost $50, 600, is giving away and il will UNI
doubtedly fall tonight. The entire business
portion was flooded and the loss will reach
$500, 000 Colonel Morgan arrived to-day to
act for the government.
/ Another despatch from Marietta tonight
| says: ssA government vessel left Parkersbarg
to-day with big load of supplies to assist
the government boat Katie Stockdale in re-
| heving the sufferers from there to Cincinnati
Governor Jackson of West Virginia visited
the boat o-day and advised the Iron City to
double back between Parkersburg and Wheel
ing. Another stop was made at Harmer
where one third of the remaining supplies
were left. What is most needed il bedding,
clothing, furniture and fuel. Provisions are
I being plentifully supplied to all points with
few exceptions which the Iron City will
cover.

Destitutfon Among Ind1ans-Ths 0ama
Gone, Their Dogs DevOured and THEN
Horses Going.
FoRr BUFoRD. Feb. 17.-Notwithstandin
the efforts of Agent Snyder terrible destitu.
tion exists among the Indians Of the Wolf
Point and Poplar Greek agencies. Men who
were strong and vigorous a few months ago
are SO reduced by hunger that they are scarce
~ able to walk, and women and children are
weak and hollow eyed from hunger. One
small scoop of -four each week and few
pounds of beef each month embrace the is-
sues to the men, and they are so hungry that
when this issue is made to them they eat il
all in Q day or two. Several of them have
been found dead between their lodges and
the agency, being SO reduced by hunger as to
be unable to resist the recent terrible cold
weather, and unless immediate relief is af-
forded many of them will die of starvation.
The government allowance is so meagre that
it is not sufficient in itself to keep them
alive.
Heretofore game has been abundant in the
regions along the Missouri and Miles rivers,
and the Indians were able, with the little as
sistance they received from the government,
to live in comparative comfort But now the
game is all destroyed, and they must either
be fed by the government or starve- OF the
8, 900 dogs in possession of the Indians at
Wolf Point one year ago not one is now left
In addition to the dogs many of the horses
have been taken and many more have been
traded for food Much the same state of
things exists at the Poplar Greek agency.

The Relief of Gree,y-POfnts in the
Character of the Commander Of the
Expedition.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Captain W. A.
Kirkland, who has been selected to command
the Greedy relief expedition, has been exam
ined by the naval medical board as to his
physical fitness to go on the expedition He
was found to be sound, with the exception of
a slight rheumatic affection in one of his arms
The board informed the Secretary of the
Navy of the result. It is thought that his
slight disability will not interfere with his
being assigned to the command of the expe-
dition. There is little discomfort at Cap
tain Kirkland's selection on account of q re.
port that he was once tried by court martial
for cruelty to seamsn under his command. It
learned at the Navy department that a
number of years ago he was court martialed
for threatened violence. The trial was not
attended with any serious results, and what
slight sentence was imposed was subse-
quently remitted It is known that Captain
Kirkland is a very strict disciplinarian, and
permits no trifing on the part of those IN
der his command. 1t is urged by many that
he is Just the officer to command the expedi-
ton, as it is necessary that the commander
should be able to enforce obedience under all
circumstances, as the success of the expedi-
ton depends largely upon discipline being
maintained. Twelve line officers will be
needed, six for each vessel and four or five
times that nu mber have already volunteered
to go. An able officer is yet to be selected to
command the Bear. Captain Joseph Fyffe,
who is now on waiting orders, has offered his
services, in addition to those heretofore
mentioned.

A Plot That Miscarried-The Murderoas
Scheme Matched Out BY Farm Labor
ers.
OMAHA, Feb. 1.-Two farm laborers,
Charles Perkins and julius Heck. have been
arrested and jailed at Glsnwood, Ia, on q
charge of conspiracy to murder the Hon. D.
Il. Solomon, of Mills county, and all of his
family. The plot was overheard and in
formation given to Mr.. Solomon by young
woman in his employ. The men had planned
the killing of Solomon, his wife and their
four children and the robbery of the house, a
large and richly furnished establishment.
When this had been done the conspirators
proposed to give the two servant girls of the
family the choice of sharing the fate of their
employers or going peaceably with the muir
derers who were to take team and wagon
with supply of provisions and drive of
across the country. Mr.. Solomon proceeded
at once to have the men arrested when the
plot was revealed to him and after they were
in custody search of their room disclosed
two trunks containing an outfit of deadly
weapons and food sufficient to last four per
sons for week. MIR. Solomon's residence
is q station named after him He is lawyer,
al old and wealthy citizen and attorney for
the Wabash railway.

Joseph E. tombstone is president, has sold to
capitalists of this city the sole right to put
up and use their telephones in the District of

Postmasters' salarIes-A Decision by At
torney-General Brewster.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE Attorney
General has Just rendered an opinion regard
ing the construction of the act of March 8,
1888, relative to the REIMBURSEMENT of post
masters salaries. He holds that in all cases
in which it appears from a biennial read.
justment of salaries of postmasters of the
third, fourth and fifth classes that they re-
csived 70 per cent more or less than they
would have received in commissions under
the act of 1854, they are now entitled under
the act of March Sd, 1888, to the difference
between what was paid them and what they
would have received as commissions under
the act of 1854. He also holds that it was
not the intent of Congress by the acts of
1854 and 1866 to dispense with biennial re-
adjustments. It follows from readjustment
that claimant under the act OF March Sd,
1888. must show that the acts subsequent to
1S54adeprived him of 10 per cent. or nore
of what he would have received if those
statutes had not been enacted and he had
been compensated on the basis of the act of
1854. This opinion of the Attorney General
is in harmony with the construction given
these statutes by the Postoffice department..

Fair But FraiI-A FaithIess Spouse seeks
Peace Beyond the Grave.
ROCHESTER, Feb. IA beautiful face,
white in death, relieved by locks of raven
hair saturated with blood was the startling
sight that met the proprietor of the Osburn
House early yesterday morning. He was
hastily summoned by a chambermaid to the
room in which on the previous evening a
guest named Mrs. John T. Virgins of Rome,
N. Y, had retired She reached the hotel
last Saturday night without trunk. She
was very richly attired in sealskin sacque and
silk dress and she wore fine jewelry. She
said she was on her way west and intended
to remain few days in Rochester. The
sensation produced by finding her dead, with
the revolver still clenched in her hand, was
intense. 1t was discovered that physician
had attended her the previous evening. He
stated that he found her suffering from acute
mania and that she had told him she had,
desire to die on account of domestic Difficult
ties. The physician told the hotel proprietor
to have her watched, and the chambermaid
had remained with her until Mrs. Virgins
aimed the revolver at her head, when she
Mrs Virgins was the wife of John It,
Virgins. a prominent furniture dealer and
undertaken of Rome, N. Y. She was the
youngest daughter of Christopher Fessman,
a respectable mechanic there. She was
dashing young girl, and was married to John
T. Virgins four years ago. 1t is said she
had the reputation of being fast before mar
rage. Her husband had the greatest conf
dence in her until year ago. when he be-
came suspicious of her intimacy with several
prominent men, including lawyers and mer-
chants. He set watch and became con-
vino ed of her unfaithfulness. He instituted
divorce proceedings last August and ceased
living with her. One night last summer she
went into her husbands store, produced q
revolver and threatened suicide. Her hus-
band took the weapon from her. She then
went out at midnight and tried to drown
herself, but was rescued from the water.
She has been residing at the Arlington hotel
since that time, her husband paying for her
support. It is said she had been receiving
the attentions of gentleman stopping there

The Work of COngress-N1atters to Come
mp In Both Branches This Week-Very
Little Business Already Done This Sos
sion.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE unfinished
business before the Senate is the bill relating
to national bank circulation. This measure
has been debated three days and the pros
pect is that it will occupy the greater portion
have been proposed, some of them in the
nature of substitutes, but it is more than
probable that the bill will pass as reported.
Senator Riddleberger's resolution for an in
vestigation of the removals and appoint
ments by the officers of the House and Sen
ate is not yet disposed of. It may come up
at any time during the morning hour and
lead to discussion of civil service practice
lately. Nothing is yet known of the Next
can treaty. It has not been mentioned
lately The friends of the treaty, while an
ticipating another exciting debate, feel conf
dent that the motion to reconsider the vote
by which it was rejected will prevail and the
treaty be ratified.
The prospect for the transaction of much
Du6AnO66 Ia VIC AAOo60 AAoAAA6 G3o NoAIAAS
week is not very bright. To morrow is bill
dry and as the rush is nearly over the States
may be called an hour later, when motions
to suspend the rules will be in order. On
Tuesday, by an arrangement of the Appro-
priation committee, the fertilization bill is
to take precedence of the naval appropria-
ton bill and will occupy most of the
day. The naval bill will follow and
occupies all of Wednesday and Thursday.
Friday, if not monopofzed by the Virginia
contested case, will be given to the considera-
ton of private bills. But one private bill,
that for the relief of Fitz-Jehn Porter, has
been passed by the House this session. Rep
resentative Hatch, whose bill to create a
bureau of animal industry has the right of
way over others than appropriation and reve-
nue. bills, is watching closely for chance to
call vote upon the measure. He is still
hopeful that it will pass, but not SO sanguine
as when the bill was reported Mr.. Sloan is
on the alert to bring his shipping bill up for
consideration, but the chances for getting it
before the House grow less as time advances
and other matters press in. 1t is safe to say
that for many preceding Congresses the
middle of February has shown larger
amount of business done than is shown by
the present one.
