 "The case was then presented to the court of appeals on q motion for resen- tence, and Judge Andrews rcscntenced the prisoner after writing very exhaust i've opinion, in which he held that the pro- ceedings taken by his attorneys did not operate as a stay Last Monday Buchan- ans attorneys made an application, as am informed, to Judge Lacombo of the United States court for another writ of habcas corpus, and that judge indorsed upon the petition refusal to entertain the application. This refusal was indOrSed upon the petition to be at chambers
 "The proceedings taken before him ap- pear to be substantially the same as those instituted before Judge Brown. Warden Sage since that time has sent two mes sengers and various communications to mo asking whether I would advise the execution of Buchanan. 1 have answered that l saw nothing in the papers that in my opinion operated as a stay of proceed ings.
 II have not advised his execution, as that is not a part of my duty, and 1 dc not propose t o do so, but it seems to me that this is simply a repetition of the pro cCcdingS which were rcSOrtCd to Sev"Ta weeks ago and which Lave been rcvicwcN by the court nI appeals.

THE United States navy has been ex- pe1iencing 8 number of surprises during the past few weeks, but perhaps the big gest surprise of all has been the appoint ment of Commodore Francis M. Bunce to the command of the North Atlantic squadron. The wise ones had already placed Admiral Ramsay on the deck of the North Atlantic flagship, and were even figuring upon Commodore Matthews of the navy bureau of docks as his probable successor. The new squadron commander was only exalted to the commodore's rank four months ago, and he is undoubtedly the most astonished man of all. Nevertheless. he has been the recipient of several unex- pected honors during his naval career. He commanded the monitor Monadnock whep, in 1865, she made the trip from Phila- delphia to San Francisco. the first long sea voyage of any monitor He was also given command in July, 1886. of the Atlanta, fist of the modern United States cruisers. That he will justify the wisdom of Score tary Herbert's selection seems 8 safe prophecy.

Rush OF the Released Waters-A
Work Train Wrecked

As result OF yesterday afeI noon S
heavy rain Curtis reservoir burst about
6 O'Clock tins morning at the place where
the Burlington railroad tracks cross tn D.,
EN- bankment of the dam, and a heavy
body OF water rushed down Medicine val
ley towards the Republican river.
A number of freight cars on the track
were precipitated into the Medicine valley
below, and the fine Curtis rolling mill
was in danger of being destroyed. The
Burlington's loss alone will be heavy
The loss to stock above and below the
dam is large. 1t has been raining all
day, and the water has been rising in the
lake so much that apprehension Is still
felt, not only for the mill, but for other
property. With the continued rain and
the immense volume of water now rush
ing down Medicine valley the dam and
railroad bridge at Cambridge are sure to
60 out tonight.
A work train which left here this
morning to clear up the Burlington road
east of here is reported to have run into
a washout between Ford and Edison. |,
is reported also that several men are in
iured. A wreckng train has been made VI
and sent to their assistance. Further
particulars probably, will be impossible
to get tonight.
