THE MURDER OF CAPT. DAWSON.

Indications of the Brutality Of She Deed - Evidence of an Attempt to Bury the Body-Dr. meDow,s Plea of Self-Defense He Bears aI2 she Evidences of a Criminal Conscious ness.
 CHARLESTON, s. O., March 13-The reve- lations only partially made last night in rela- tion to the murder of Captain Dawson, which occurred Tuesday afternoon, indicate that his death was not only compassed in most
 brutal manner, but that a futile effort had been made to bury the body of the victim The murderer. Dr. McDow, Charleston physician, who it is alleged had been on too familiar terms with Swiss maid employed in the family of Captain Dawson, remained in the room at least an hour after the death of Captain Dawson planning how he might dispose of the body. At distance of few feet from the back door of the office at the end of a passage way is half door opening into a recess under the stairway, which leads to the second story. On the half door were noticed by the coroner and his jury some spots of fresh blood. Drops of blood were found on the floor up to space where the flooring terminated and the earth of the foundation was exposed. Here the mould was noticed to be freshly turned up and to 8 depth which was only limited by quantity of bricks and other impossible material to the spade or whatever instrument was used in the attempt to dig grave. It is, there- fore, almost absolutely certain that the sssas- sin endeavored during his long occupancy of the room with the murdered man to dig his grave and thus forever bury all proof of his crime. Certain it is, however, that Dr. Mo Dow, after finding his efforts futile on ac- count of the soil just noted, determined to set up the plea of self-defense and went out and delivered himself to Private Gordon. Dr. McDow when seen in jail to-day bore all the evidences of 6 man affected with conscious ness of crime without an excuse. He was ashen pale, trembled visibly and the perspir- tion was thick upon his forehead and face. Among other things he desired it stated that he killed Captain Dawson in self-defense.
 All the flags in the city are at half-mast and telegrams of sympathy are pouring in from all parts of the country.
 The funeral of Captain Dawson took place at the cathedral chapel this afternoon, Bishops Northrop of the Charleston diocese and John Moore of the diocese of St. Angus tine, Fla, officiating. All the priests of the diocese were in the sanctuary and the chapel was crowded. Flags were displayed at half mast all over the city and the streets through which the funeral cortege passed were thronged, although heavy rain fell.
 Messages of sympathy have been pouring in to Mrs. Dawson to-day from all parts of the country. Ex-President Cleveland tele- graphed: 'tI am shocked by the death of your husband and I sadly tender you my heartfelt sympathy"

THAT DEADLY sTeRM.

Nine Deaths From Hts Exposures.
 WASHINGTON, March 13.-During the week since the inauguration nine deaths have oc- cured in this city that were directly sttrib- utable to that event. This is merely the local record and is necessarily only partial one. It does not include the mortality among the 200, 600 visitors or the cases of sickness which have fatal tendencies, but have not yet cul- minated.
 Considering the exposure this death list is small. A quarter of a million people sat for hours in cold drenching rain and very many thousands walked the streets all day and night wet to the skin. Multitudes had no opportunity to get dry or warm or fed. What wonder that few have succumbed! Washington is apt to show it's bleak side to visitors. It was 8 very cold day when the monument was completed and many suffered afterward from the effects of the exposure. So also the unveiling of the statue to Gen. Thomas occurred on very raw day. Gen. 0. s. A. Davis caught fatal cold on that occasion,

Edward H. Peck Dies Suddenly at His
 Home on thc Anniversary of the
 BIfzZard.
 STAMFORD, March 13.-Edward H. Peck, for many years a milkman in Greenwich, was found dead beside @ pile of burning brush on his farm at Peck's Land yesterday afternoon. He served his customers yes- terday morning, and seemed in his usual health. After arriving home he went out to work about his farm, and soon after, his body was found near the fire, with the clothes burning. Whether he died from heart di- sease or had fit and fell on the fire is not known.
 MT. Peck came very near pertaining in the great blizzard just one year ago yesterday, having been dug out of the snow nearly frozen to death. His health has not been rugged since that experience, and his friends believe that in that exposure he sowed the seeds of disease which carried him off in just one years time.
 MT. Peck was favorably known to a large number of New Workers who spent their summers in Greenwich, whom he served with milk. He was 51 years old. His fun eral will take place on Thursday afternoon.
