LOUISVILLE, KY, October 20.-Mrs.
Mary Blackburn Morris, wife of the late
Judge Buckner Morris, Of Chicago, and
the sister'of Ex-Governor Luke T., Black.
burn and Senator j. C. S. Blackburn, died
at the Blackburn Sanitarium yesterday,
after long and painful illness. Mrs.
MOTIFS was one Of the most remarkable
WJmen OF her time, and was known all
over Kentucky and the South. She was
famous ex-Confederate who assisted in
the attempt to liberate the Camp Doug
lass prisoners. She had passed her sixty
NTH birthday, aud her long life was filed
with continued and earnest work She
married Judge Morris, who had gone
from Kentucky 70 Chicago and was the
nrst man TO engage In the practice of law
IN That place, and was also the first
Mayor OF that city. He became one Of
the leading men in the State.
Mrs. Morris was warmly Southern In
her sentiments during the war, and
scarcely had Camp Douglass been con-
verted into PRISON for captured Confed-
crates before she manifested her deyo-
tlon In he most practical manner, visit
Ing the prison and carrying creature COM
forts to the prisoners, Hor residence In
Chicago was the rallying ooint and hid

cape. At her house Captain rhos. Hines,
the present Chiei-Justice of Kentucky,
was hid an entire day between bed mat.
lresses, with detectives searching every
nook and corner OF the place for him.
When Captain Arnold's associates Ia
the attempt TO liberate prisoners were
captured, Mrs. Morris and her husband
were arrested as accompllces, and i'm
prisoned for four months, during which
time, under the rigorous prison rules,
the health Of both was greatly impaired
and their fortunes wasted away. They
were never arraigned for trial, but they
said 1t cost them over 100000 to obtain q
release, and that in order to raise the
money, 100000 worth of pro- lerty had
to be sacrificed.
After the death Of her husband, which
occurred about five years ago, Mrs.
Morris returned to Kentucky to reside
with her brothers. During the term
Of her brother, Governor Blackburn,
Mrs. Morris and NJ $. Blackburn estab-
lished Sunday-schools in the Penitentiary

ALBANY, N. Y, October 20.-On his
way to the Executive Chamber this morn
Ing Cleyeland was assaulted by Samuel
j. Boone, OF Elmlra, N. Y, who, with his
wife, created an excitement some days
since at the Executive Mansion. Boone
lay In waite for the Governor at the cor
ner OF Lancaster and Eagle streets, and
as he approached addressed him, follow
Ing 1t up at once with two blows, which
were warded off by the Governor.
Bosne then rushed into the street and
reached for paving-stone. AS he was
picking 1t up, he was seized by a passer-
by and held, the Governor quietly pass
Ing on. A large crowd at once col
lected, and In the confusion Boone es
capped and entered boarding house
near by, where he was followed and ar
rested. He was taken before Police
Justice Gutman, who remanded him for
examination on Wednesday at 3 p. In.
The Governor was visited by scores of
people during the morning. He makes
light OF the affair.
Boone, who Is small delicate man,
looks Wild, but talks nationally. He ad.
mits the assault was unlustidsd, but in
sists that his wife is dying IN Albany, and
that her illness is greatly aggravated by
her frettng about the pardon which he
sought from the Governor for her brother
some days since. Boone says he has had
no sleep for upwards Of week In conse-
quence Of her illness. The attending
physician this morning assured him that
his wife could not recover aud the poor
fellow may be, temporarily at least,
classed as a clank.

A Heavy Failure.

SAN Francisco, October 20.-The fail
ure Of w. A. Bowman, capitalist and
real estate broker, which was announced
last Thursday, will prove to be much
more serious than at first supposed. 1t
is now pretty well established that the
misappopriation of moneys placed in
his hands for investment will reach
100000. One of the heaviest losers, 1t
is said, will be Mrs. Harriet Bowie, at
present In Europe. She was Immensely
wealthy in her own right, and Bowman
had absolute charge OF her affairs. He
was heavy borrower from the Bank OF
California, but 1t is believed the bank Is
fully secured. 1t Is difficult to get at the
facts, as interested parties refuse to say
anything uatil the assignee has made bis
settlement. Bowman, who is Ill in bed,
has been placed under arrest.

Blaine left South Bend this morning at
ten O'Clock upon special train In charge
of General Williams, of Lafayette. John
c. New and number OF Indiana speak

to have an orator address the crowdNfter
Mr.. Blaine had gone. At Elkhart the first
stop, there was a crowd Of 5000 people.
Mr.. Blaine left the train and assembled a
stand. There he addressed his remarks
entirely to the tariff Issue. He said that
the Democratic party had surrendered
its authority. Iudiana was very unin-
portant in the list of the States, but last
year It's Industrial products reached the
enormous sum of $3.50, 900. He want
ed to ask any fair or candid man, be he
Democrat or Republican, whether that
great prosperity could have been reached
without a protective tariff. The two par
ties divided upon this issue. "Be care
full In your judgment as free men, upon
the fourth day Of next November" said
Mr.. Blaine, US he bid Elkhart good.by.

A BANKER BLOWN UP.
Terrible Explosion of Gas in q Bank
Vault.


ELMIRA, n. Y, October 2O.-Ths city
was thrown into a state OF excitement
this morning by the report that John
| Arnot, millionaire banker and the pres
ent member Of Congress from this dis
trict, had been killed by gas explosion
In his bank. A great crowd Of excited
citizens hurried to the scene, and soon
the building was surrounded.
About nine O'Clock this morning those
living In the vicinity of the bank were
start ed by loud explosion. Nearly
ever window in the building was shat
tered by the concussion, while in some
instances the window sashes were blown
out. A subsequent examination showed
the doors Of the vaults twisted and
broken, the locks torn off and other dam
age done in various parts Of the bank, so
fearful was the force OF the explosion.
At the time Of the accident there were
In the ank Congressman Arnot and sew.
eral clerks. Arnot had gone into the
vault to open the inside safe preliminary
TO commencing the days business. 1t
seems the gas had not been turned off
Saturday, and had been pouring into the
vault from the time the bank closed that
day until this morning. Arnot struck
match 10 enable him to see. Almost in
stantly there was a terrific explosion.
Arnot was hurled from the vault ten feet
and struck against the Cashiers desk at
the opposite side of the room. When
picked up he was almost unrecognzable.
his clothes were torn from his body his
face burned and blackened, and his whls-
kers and hair completely burned off.
But strange to say, he still retained con.
sciousness.
The first one to approach him was one
OF the clerks, to whom Arnot said there
was no need Of sending for doctor. A
doctor was sent for, however, and .Arnot
was carried into the private office. The
doctor soon arrived and made superb
cial examination. He found no serious
injuries, but expressed the fear that Ar.
not had received internal injuries; also
that he would lose the sight Of one, If not
Of both eyes. He was taken home, and
the results Of further examinationsare
anxiousy awaited.
He Is one OF the most popular and re.
spected men In the city, and much sym.
pathy is felt for him. He was to have
