 BUNNELL's MUSEUM. The Madison Square Theater success ''Es- meralda' will be produced at the museum
 every afternoon and evening during the week (excepting Thursday and Friday afternoons
 and evenings, when "Caste" will be given by Dillon & Stedman's dramatic company. The Albany Times says: The pretty story is well told by the Dillon & Stedman company. Charles Stedman as Ebert Rogers, the North Carolina farmer and father
 of ''Esmeralda," was natural in his acting and assumed the part of a down -trodden husband perfectly. Richard
 Dillon as Dave Hardy gave the best repre- sentation of the character ever seen here
 Annie L. Ames as Esmeralda is pretty and
 plays the part well and the remainder of the
 support is adequate. The play is put on the
 stage in the best shape of any attraction seen this season.

sOUDAN SUCCESSES.
Egyptian GarrisOns Beat Off the Arabs
and Reach Safety.

LONDON, April 14.-A dispatch from
Gen. Ricci, commander of the Italian ex-
pedition on the Red Sea, states that the
Egyptian garrisons of Senheit, Amadib
and Ghary, which have been beleaguered
for many months by hostile Arabs, have
escaped and reached Massowah, where
they are safe under the protection of the
Italian flag. The refugees brought with
them hundreds of their women and chill
dreu. Shortly before their escape the gar
risOns OF Ghary and Senheit made COM
bined sortie, in which they killed 1000 Of
the enemy, and captured several hundred
head OF cattle.
The British cavalry this morning visited
Otao, eight miles beyond Handoub. No
hostile Arabs were encountered. Water
was found to be plentiful. The country
appeared to be entirely open. The Arab
population freely sell supplies to the Eng
lish. The Italian troops have occupied
Arafal, on Austey Bay, on the Red Sea-
and have hoisted the Italian flag along
side that of Egypt.

LOT wRIGHTs ACCOUNTS.
Judge Durham Renders a Decision as
to Their Legality.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-Judge Dur
ham, First Comptroller of the Treasury,
has given an opinion in regard TO the ac-
counts of Lot Wright, United States Mar
shal for the Southern district of Ohio, for
expenses incurred in conducting the elee-
tion for members of Congress held in Gin
cinnati, o., in October, 1854. The account
is mostly for the payment of deputy mar
shals. The Comptroller, in a lengthy
opinion, says: ''SOme of said deputies
have been paid for nine days services,
some for three, four and more days, and a
very large number tor two days. Some of
these deputies were not citizens Of Ohio,
and some We're citizens OF hamilton cOun-
ty, but not of the city of Cincinnati.
A FORMER RULING.
"My predeces ssOr had decided before
came into Office that said deputies must
be voters of the State and city, and that
it was illegal to appoint deputy who
was not voter of the city, etc. In this
l fully concur and | go further. / be-
lieve that the spirit of the law is TO take
said deputies from the respective pre-
cincts IN which they vote" After review
ing IN detail the facts that Marshal
Wright appointed an extraordinary num-
Der Of deputies and that many Of them
served three, five and nine days for
which no good reason has been
shown, Judge Durham continues:
JUDGE DURHAM's DECISION.
AS an or ginal proposition shou d in this
case decide that the Marshal was not allowed
to have any deputies exCepf on the day of
election where there is no registration, unless
there was clear proof that il was necessary to
protect the officers in fair counting # the
ballots after the election was over and to pre-
and fbAn only long mi " n Z
be n cessary to give that protection. But, as
before said, Mr.. Wright, | suppose, acted on
the custom OF allowing for the pay of these
deputies the day after the election, and
shall not disturb the same, bu the account
will be adjusted upon the basis Of rejecting
the claim for pay of SAID deputies who were
not voters in the city of Cincinnati at the
time of appointment, and rejecting all claims
for more than two days service Of deputies,
unless there shall be shown by proof the
necessity for the same.

tenance of Russia's financial credit is
supremely important to the mOneyed in

BAD TIME FOR TROOPS.
Military movements in Afghauistan are
exceedingly difficult at present, on ac-
count Of the almost unprecedented Sc
verify OF the weather. Incessant storms
OF snow and hail on the mountains and
ram IN the valleys have swollen the rivers
INTO hoods, which are impossible by any
means OF transportation with which Gen.
Lumsden's forces are supplied. The
weather is exceptionally cold, and this
lact tells more severely on the British
oincers and Indian troops, who are from
the south, than upon the Russians, who
come from the North.

A CORPSE in A TRUNK.

SHROUDED IN MYSTERY.


a Room in the Southern Hotel at st.
Louis the Scene of the Find-s'so Per-
ish All Traitors to the Great Ssuse'
Printed Over tine BOdy-The Men Who
Occupied the Room.
ST. LOUIS, April IA sensation was
caused at the Southern Hotel between IL
and u O'clock to-day by the discovery Of
the mutilated body of man packed in a
trunk, which was taken out Of room.
The stencil from the trunk caused the
discovery. The hotel register shows that
on March 80 a gentleman registered as
Walter II. LennoX Maxwell, Nj. D., from
London, and was assigned TO that room,
On opening the trunk it was found that
the head of the man was severed from his
body.
Maxwell is described as a very girlish
looking blonde young man, wearing a
dark, woody cutaway suit of English
stuff. His face was clean shaven, and
he wore his hair bang fashion, not parting
it at all. He was seen in COM
pany frequently with dark looking
gentleman about five feet ten inches in
height. This gentleman registered as G..
Arthur Preller, London, England. A tele-
gram had previously been received from
Preller asking whether Maxwell was a
guest at the house. He was an wered in
the affirmative, and he soon came on.
TWO IN THE SAME ROOM.
Both men occupied the same room.
Maxwell left the hotel week ago Sum
day night, but he had paid his full weeks
board promptly, and it was supposed that
he would return any day. No suspicion
attached to his absence until the horrible
smell called attention to his room and
/ led to the opening Of the trunk.
| When the trunk containing the body
was opened in the hotel corridor today
/ it was found TO contain the body Of a
middle aged man, face and breast up, and
50 doubled about the hips and knees that
/ it filed the receptacle on the side Of the
trunk. Over the head Of the corpse was
/ printed in large letters the words
/ "sOPERIsH ALL TRAITORS TO THE GREAT
CAUSE"
The trunk and Its CHASTITY contents we're

came back on the steamer CephalOnia
from England. Preller has Russian pass

Minister and signed Granville. Seven
trunks, four yalises and hat box we're
left behind at the hotel and the contents,
clothing, etc, are valued at hundreds Of
dollars. This is believed TO make the

is that the corpse is either that OF Max
