 BALTIMORE, Md, Oct. IA ferry. mans yawl boat, in which six persons were crossing the eastern branch of the Patapisco river yesterday, was cap sized and four of it's occupants were drowned. The party left the ferry bar to row across to Meters resort in Anne Arundel county. A stiff breeze was blowing and heavy swell was running. No one seemed to know what caused the little craft to overturn, unless it was because one of the passengers stood up and caused it to dip. The accident was witnessed by hundreds of people, who lined either side of Spring Gar dens, and several boats immediately put off to the rescue. One of the un- fortunates was found clinging to the overturned boat and another had man. aged to keep himself afloat by the aid of an oar. The other four had sunk.

AQuarrel t0 the Jones Family ar Aurora,
 Mo-. Ends In a Tragedy.
 ATRoRA, Mo-, Oct 1a.-A terrible tragedy was enacted near here yester. day afternoon, which resulted in the shooting of Louis Jones, his son, Tom, and Andrew Alexander, the latter fatally. Tom is in a crit ical condition and may not recover and old man Jones is seriously hurt. Andrew Alexander had been pay. ing attentions to Jones' daughter, sarah, married woman, but who was not living with her husband. This ar. reused opposition on the part of her parents and few weeks ago she left her nome and went to the home oi Alexander's parents to live. Tester. day afternoon, in company with Alex ander, she went to Jones' house to get some of her clothing, which was refused her and a stormy time ensued. In the course of the difficulty Jones and his son got into a fight and during the melee Alexander shot them both, the son in the right sIae, the ball coming out at the back, aud the old man in the mouth, knock ing out several of his teeth. In the meantime old man Jones drew a re. volver and shot Alexander twice, ono in the left side of the neck. the second bullet penetrating the brain at the temple.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

The Commission VIII Recommend That
 All the Work Done Upoa the Project Be
 Abandoned.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. l2.-Col. Ludlow, chairman of the commission appointed some time ago to make a personal in- vestigation of the Nicaraguan canal project, is at present in New York pre- pairing his report. The outline has been completed, and it was learned that the commission recommends that all the work that has thus far been done upon the project be abandoned. The railroad built to aid in the con- struction is reported to be absolutely useless, and the dredging of the har- Dor of Greytown is said to have been simply waste of money, because the sands have drifted in and filled up the harbor so that it will all have to be done over again. The commission, however, finds that the Nicaraguan route is the most feasible of any project for ship canal between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans,

 aCOrps of 5O,OOO Correspondents.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Henry A. Robinson, the chief statistician of the agricultural department, is engaged in the gigantic task of organizing corps of jOOOO correspondents throughout the agricultural districts, particularly in the west and south. This corps will be twice as great as the standing army of the United States, and fifteen times as great as the whole corps of first, second and third class postmasters in the govern. ment service, to whom nearly Sc, GOO, ,OOO is paid every year. And the work of this corps of correspondents will be performed without any cost to the gov. ernment, except what is represented by the value of some crop pam. phlets which are distributed by the secretary of agriculture every month. The chief has taken twentr-one states, in which from two-thirds to nine-tenths of the grain crops are raised, and sent circular let. ters to the county clerks asking them to send the names of men, two in each township, who might be willing to act as the departments correspondents, and who would be competent to make crop estimates With each circular was inelosed a franked envelope for rsyNlr

Horrible Treatment Of a Supposed Witch

 PARIS, Tex, Oct 14.-Officers who arrived here from the territory bring news of the dastardly butchery of an aged negro woman named Louisiana Fisher, near Shawneetown, in the eastern part of the Choctaw nation. She lived alone in an isolated spot and the negroes and Indians in that part of the country believed her to be witch and greatly feared her. A day or two ago her body was found in the woods, where she had been gather. ing snake root for medicine, mutilated in the most horrible manner. Her head was cut off and a mum Der of long, deep gashes were in her body. Sus- picion rests upon some Choetaws named Impson, who believed her to be a witch and lived iu constant terror of her.

 HoT STRINGS, Ark, Oct. 14.-Certain. ty at last has been reached, and as solid as rock. The Corbett.Fitzsi.n. mons fight is fixed, and sure as the bio hills of Arkansas. The fact has been ascertained that the great mill, beyond doubt, will take place at Hot Springs on schedule time. It is now known definitely by those few to whom such information is absolutely essential what course will be pursued, and re. gardless of seeming difficulties, pres. ent or prospective all shadow of doubt is now removed that the fight is to oc. cur on the date set and at the site al. ready selected at Hot Springs.
 In order to comply strictly with the laws of Arkansas the articles of agree ment of the Florida Athletic associa. tion have been changed from finish contest to limited number of rounds, the referee being vested with full DOW CT to stop the contest when, in his opin. ion, 1t becomes brutal, the contestants to box with soft gloves.
 The total expenditure in preparation for the fight, including output for tracks, extra trains and extra engines is estimated at s1OO,O6o Ninety cars of lumber are being hauled to the Springs for fight purposes. Attention is significantly called to these actions, and the confidence otherwise shown in the preparations. The fact is also pointed out that the contract on behalf of Hot Springs has not been made by irre- sponsible or speculative sporting men, but by the mayor and city attorney, who may be relied upon particularly in view of other developments, and have made sure of the ground.

This depreciated paper, of .nnr,e, . expelled specie from circulation, but aS ,br government had not promised to redeem ., at any particular time, 1t subjected the ,rcnsury department to no serious responsi- Nifty or inconvenience.

But since ,be passage of the act of May 3l. 1873 and the resumption of specie payments on the first day of January. 1872 the situation has entirely changed. and the treasury department is not now merely an agency for the issue of circulating notes. but is required to pro- vide for their redemption in coin, and to re- issue them when redeemed. It thus appears that the government has redeemed notes in gold now to the amount of SSs6,0O0.OOO and the notes so redeemed are still outstanding and may be presented for redemption over and over again. so long as our legislation remains in it's present condition. My contention is that the notes ought not to bo kept outstanding, but should be retired and cancelled as speedily as q sound and safe currency can be pro- yided to take their places There can be no financial repose in this country so long as these notes constitute Q part of our currency, because the fact that they exist compels the government to provide a large gold reserve, which in the very nature of things, cannot be permanently maintained at any fixed amount and whenever 1t begins to diminish, distrust and apprehension arise in the public mind. values are unsettled. business is disturbed and more or less loss is entailed upon the people.

A MYSTERIOUS POND.
Lunar Eclipse Dried It Up and on St. Pat-
 rlck's Day All Fish Left.

Lunar Eclipse Dried It Up and on St. Pat
 rlck's Day All Fish Left.
 Near Logansport, Ind, there stands a small body of water commonly known as ''Palmer's pond" Many pe- culiar and interesting phenomena are related of it. On the night of the moons eclipse, March 13, the pond, in which usually from five to fifteen feet of water stands, went completely dry.
 Several families who lived near by and had certain knowledge that the pond had been full the evening before were greatly astonished by the occur renee and hastened to relate the news to their neighbors. Many came and inspected the. bare bed that day, but those who delayed their visit until the day following were disappointed, for that night the pond resumed its usual fullness. Those who viewed the basin during its empty condition saw noth- ing in the shape of Assure or outlet of any kind; neither was there any spring apparent whereby the pond might be filled again.
 The only theory advanced is the pos sible effect of the moons influence. In support of this theory it is said that about twenty-eight years ago the pond was observed to go dry under precisely similar circumstances. With these two exceptions it has been one of the most stable and consistent bodies of water in the locality. Through the worst of droughts it has maintained 8 constant depth of never less than five feet, which in the spring and fall is frequently increased to fifteen feet.
 With other remarkable stories told of Palmer's pond it is said that on St. Patrick's day, 1873, all tte frogs and tortoises in it formed in 8 line upon its bank and marched overland dis tance of quarter of mile or more to the Wabash river, where they again took to the water. This unique spec taele is said by many reputable citizens to have been viewed by them, and it is certain that to-day the pond contains uo specimen of either species named.- Philadelphia Press

 PITTSBURGH, Pa., Oct 14.-Three persons were killed outright and four teen others injured by runaway troll ley car on the West End Electric line jumping the track and going over an embankment, at GEO o'clock last night. Just before the city limits are reached there is sharp curve and hill along the track for about 4 mile. When the car reached this point the brake rod broke and the motorman lost con- trol. The car dashed down the hill until 1t reached Mccartney street where there is a sharp curve. Here it jumped the track and turned com pletely over. landing in a ravine along side of the road. The car was broken into splinters and the three persons killed were horribly mangled.
