ATcHIsoN, March 24.-Viewing
the presidential outlook from DEM
ocratic standpoint yesterday, John
J. Ingalls, said Cleveland was the
only man the Democrats could hope
to elect, and he believed the Demo-
Gratis ex-president will be the nomi-
nee Of the convention.
"This man Hill," continued Mr..
Ingalls,, "whose is parading about
the country in search of support,
would carry fewer states than any
Democrat who has presidential as
pirations. Cleveland is wooden
man, but he is better than Hill. ]"

LOUISVILLE, March 25. From
the same gallows from which Turner
and Patterson were hanged, Henry
Smith was swung into eternity this
morning. Smith did not close his
eyes during the night. At 3, just
after services by Rev. Taylor, Smith
knelt upon the floor cell with
the minister and made a prayer.
Smith was hand-cuffed and
his arms pinioned Immediately
afterwards. At 6:15 o'clock the
start was made for the scaffold.
When he mounted the scaffold
Smith, whose courage never left
him, stepped to the front and made
a short speech. He said he had
nothing to say but to welcome
death. He was satisfied
he would pass into world
where there was nothing but happi-
ness.
He closed with fervent amen.
He even stepped on the trap. As
the moose was put around his neck
Smith laughed and said "Be care
full He was smiling all the while.
At 6 20 the black cap was put on
and the moose adjusted. At 6;22
the trap fell and the body dropped
perfectly stiff, but after few seconds
began jerking in convulsions. Doc.
tors Cox and Berry we're standing at
trap and timed death. AT 6:3e
O'Clock DIR. Garvin pronounced him
dead. The murder which brought
Smith to the scaffold was shooting
down without provocation Of his
employer, Louis Spect, near this city,

DEATH FROM DRINK,
Peter Syneseal's UnfOrtu nate End
Last Night.
After "A PrOtracted Spree OF Three
Weeks He Succumbs TO the In
evitable-rhe Inquest
The Verdict

Peter Syneseal, a Hollander SO years of
age. died in a choking fit at the home of
John Hendrickson on Sixth street and
Sixth avenue just after supper last even
ing. A jury was impanelled by Coroner
Halves, consisting of 8. F. Cooke. fore
man, l.. V. Eckhart. Matthias Buncher.
w. j. Zeis. William Kroeger and E. D.
Green, who viewed the remains and af-
terward examined number of witnesses.
The first witness called was Christine
Tage. who testified to the deceased COM
ing to Mr.. Hendrickson's house and re-
questing Mrs. Hendrickson to get some
beer for him, which she refused to do.
Witness further stated that on Mr..
Hendrickson's 3, rival home he invited
Syneseal to hsv. supper, which invita-
ton the latter az epted. The next thing
witness noticed vas that Syneseal was
choking sad saw Mr.. Hendrlckson carry

tifiel to having known deceased about
80 years, that he was Hollander by

CLEARING THE CHANNEL.
How the Work OF the G0vcrnn en-
Engineers shows at such RtVer
stage as This,

How tho Work OF the Governnent
Engineers shows at such a River
stage as This,
1t is difficult to imagine. when We
consider the extreme high water of last
June. that the river should now be at an
unusually low stage. Yet it is true.
Boats are however able to navigate with
out the difficulty that in former days was
experiel ced when the water was low.
The work of the United states engin-
GERS is apparent at such stage as this.
Instead of shallow crossings, obstructipg
bars and menacing snags and chains.
there is free passage from one end Of the
navigable river to the other. Some
times q boat will labor a little ia shallow
space, as her wheel digs the water out
from under bottom faster than it can
run into the gap. but there is no such
thing as grounding. and the sounding
pole is not used unless making a strange
landing, or landing in a very ticklish
place where the pilot is not
real s1re Of his ground. It is not
many years since the stage that
now prevails would have amounted
practically to the tying mp Of river traffic
except in small local way. There is
no proof of the correctness of a theory
and a system like the demonstration by
applications; the actual performance; and
when a pilot takes a deeply laden boat
over places that could not have been
crossed in former times it is fair to con-
clude that good work has been done in
keeping the road open. Maj. Macken-
zie is especially complimented by the
steamboat men for the work he has done
in keeping their highway open. As long
as he has it in charge they feel that they
will have ali the advantages that any en-
gineer can possibly give them. II they
don't get a clear channel it will be be-
cause the water or the money run out.
