Mr.. Cleveland's Intentions.


NEW YORK, Jan. 90.-A prominent
democrat Of this State who has a ma
tional reputation had q chat with Pres
ident-elect Cleveland yesterday, in the
course of which Mr.. Cleveland told
frankly what he is now doing, and
what his policy would be in respect to
federal appointments. "Mr. Cleve-
land, said this democrat, sis thinking
now more about the repeal of the Sher-
man silver act and of the settlement of
the silver problem generally than he is
of the cabinet appointments. But the
cabinet appointments, as we'll as all
Other federal appointments, will lie
largely governed by Mr.. Cleveland's ar

Cleveland does not intend to put in
high government positions men who

spect to silver; and he has closely oil.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 30.-A Bohemian
ex-priest, John q. Hoida, killed his
two children this morning, while suf-
feripg from delirium. He has been
considered somewhat demented for
some time. Breaking loose from his
attendants the ex-priest rpshad down

killed his three-weeks'-old child. A
murderous assault upon his three-year=
old son followed, The ffenzied Bohe-

A Series of Explosions.

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 30.-Just as
church services were beginning yester-
day, alarms of fire were turned in. A
group of men were standing on corn
er at the mouth of a large sewer dis
oussing what made the water look so
greasy. One of them said he would
see, and dropped lighted match into
the oily substance. At once there was
terrific explosion and one of the spec
tators had part of his hand torn oil.
The flames rushed on through the sew
Ell consuming the oil which had escap-
ed from the gas company's broken
pipes. One explosion followed anoth-
er tearing up the sidewalks square al
ter square, and shattering window
glass along the way. Great excite
ment prevailed, women shriekiGg and
fainting from fright, The fire depart
ment could accomplish nothing and the
oil continued to burn until it had
emptied itself into the Kentucky river.
The gas works were rendered inopera-
tive and last night candles had to be
depended upon for illumination.

LONDON, Jan. 30.-The international
scull race between George Bubear, the
English oarsman, and George Hosmer,
of Boston, took place this morning, and
was won by Bubear, who defeated his
opponent by about five lengths. The
course was about four miles and q
quarter. The race was for the cham
pionship OF England, and stakes Of
f400.
a sensation has been caused by the
release, by order of the home office, of
Marguerite Dixblanc, the Park Lane
murderess, who was convicted in
1872, of the atrocious murder of her
mistress, Madame Riel. The murderess
was convicted to death, but the jury
recommended her to mercy on the pre-
sumption that the murder had been
preceded by quarrel and was there
fore not premeditated,
The jury in the Gooch case to-day re-
turned verdict that Lady Alice Gooch
and her husband, Sir Alfred, had both
been guilty of adultery, and the petit
ton of Lady Alice for a judicial separa
tisn on the ground of Sir Alfred's inf
deity was, therefore, denied.
LONDON, Jan. 30.-The Daily News
says: The Queens speech, in opening
parliament tomorrow, will present
such mass of legislative proposals as
would task septennial parliament to
get through with. 1t is generally con-
coded that at the utmost the life of
Mr.. Glandstone's government will not
last longer than two years, and some
predict that it will not last longer than
six months. Therefore, if it passes
any one of the great measures that will
be announced in the Queens speech it
will distinguish itself.
LONDON, Jan. 30.-The question of
the proposed annexation of Hawaii by
tho United States continues to be n
prominent subject for discussion in po-
litical circles and in the newspapers.
The Globe says that the annexation Of
Hawaii may resultin bringing the Uni
ted States into foreign relations at va
rance with the whole of their tradition

hict between them and the English
colonies.

Doc SHoT.-A dog, which occasioned
some anxiety, appeared in front of Trim
ity NJ. f. Church yesterday afternoon.
snapped at several people and dogs
which got in his way, and leaving the
vicinity of the church proceeded down
King street. He was intercepted in
front of Mr. Robert Arnold's hat store,
between Pitt and Royal streets, by o.
ficer Sherwood, who fired four shots at
the brute, without effect, however. The
dog kept on down King street to Union,
where officer McCuen shot at him. TIE
canine seemed impervious to bullets,
and Officer Sherwood, who had con e
up in the meantime with gun, blew q
hole almost through the object ofterror
and placing pistol to its head gaveit a
coup d. grace. The dog belonged to
Mr.. w. J. Brodbeck and short time
previous to the killing had been severe
ly whipped by another dog, which many
persons believe was the cause of his
strange conduct. Considerable excite
ment was occasioned, and two bystand-
g s who interfered with the officers were
placed under arrest.

A FAMILY FOUND FRozEN.-The
bodies of John NIichacls, wife ond three
little children were discovered frozen
to death Saturday night in :. howell in
Putnam county, w. Va, near the Lin
coin county line. A fourth child, an
infant, was heavily wrapped and was
found 10 be alive. AIichaels and his
wife led Il sort of gypsy life for years,
wandering about through West Viz
ginia in the summer seasons, and going
south in advance of the SHOWS in win

VOLUNTARY INCARCERATIoN.-Men-
ton was made Saturday Of the fact that
the saloon OF Sefer Blouse, at the up
per end of King street, had been en-
tered by thief or thieves during the
absence of the host and hostess. 1t
will be remembered that last week
Blouse was fined 500 and sentenced to
jail for thirty days by the Corporation
Court for selling liquor without a IL
cense. 1t seems that on Saturday, the
day on which the saloon was entered,
Blouse and his wife went to the First
National Bank and deposited their
money and valuables, after which the
couple proceeded to jail where the hus-
band took leave Of his better-half and
delivered himselfup to City Sergeant
Smith for the purpose of carrying out
the sentence pronounced upon him. 1t
was while Blouse and his wife were
away from the saloon that it was en-
tered and robbed, though nothing of
special value was taken.

CRYPT CURIosITIEs.-The Washing
ton Star, in describing files of old news

the Congressional library, says:
",rhe ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE is an
other old timer that forms one of Capt.
Van Ness treasures, but the files are
far from complete, although some ofthe
copies date back to the earliest years of
the century. One issue contains what
is perhaps the first real hostile item
printed Just prior to and during the civil
war. When Federal troops were sent
across Virginia to occupy old Fort
Washington before actual hostilities be-
gan. a prominent Alexandrian became
wroth and telegraphed the Governor OF
the State that such an indignity to State
sovereignty should not be tolerated.
He wanted the executive TO declare war
at once. The GAZETTE printed the dis
patch with some comments thereon
next day, and the reporter who wrote
the item has since grown gray IN jour-

perience he has acquired during the

THE RIvER.-The two Norfolk steam
ers, which left Washington on Satur
dav. one in the morning and the other
at night, reached Norfolk yesterday
eyening-the Washington at l O'Clock
and the Norfolk n few hours later. The
Norfolk returned to this city at l:30
O'Clock this evening She reports hay
ing left Norfolk at 1880 last night, hav-
ING been detained by 4 fog. She also
reports heavy ice in the bay and that
there is only track in the river from
Maryland Point up. The steamer
brought up 200 tons of freight, most of
which was pat off here. She will leave
here tonight for Norfolk on her regu
lar trip. The Washington left Norfolk
this morning and is expected here to-
night.
The tugs Templar and Harlow, which
are now at Baltimore and which were
expected to leave that city yesterday to
assist in breaking the ice blockade in
the Potomac, had not left there this
morning, but are expected to do so this
evening, and if they do will probably
reach this city on Wednesday.
The government tug Triton passed by
this city this morning on her way to In
dian Head and apparently had but little
difficulty in forcing her way through
the ice
The track made in the channel by the
Norfolk boats on Saturday still remains
open, but the ice is still unbroken from
the channel TO either shore. The rain
of Yesterday had u sottcning effect on
the ice, but ii is still too heavy for most
of the steamers to run. Should the
present favorable weather continue it is
believed that the ice will disappear
without causing any damage.
