sible for His Brides Death
Wilmington March 19.-R. G. White,
attorney general Of Delaware, who has
been in charge of the collection of evil
dence against James M. Gordy ac-
cused Of the murder Of his bride at
Georgetown, compares Gordy to H. II.
Holmes, and says that his (Gordy's)
crimes have been even more atrocious
than those fastened upon the murder
er Holmes. Mr. White expects to prove
that Gordy was instrumental in the
deaths Of his first wife and his father,
as we'll as the murder of his bride
few days ago, An Unsuitable greed for
money is given as the incentive to the
crimes.
At Georgetown last night the coro-
ner's jury in the Gordy case rendered
the following verdict: THAT Mrs. Mary
Gordy alias Mary Lewis of New York,
came to her death from wounds upon
the head inflicted by some blunt in

A Mother nud -Four Children Drowned.
Mississippi river stni Rising.
Memphis, March 19.-Last night the
great flood claimed Eve more victims.
Near Marion, Ark, Etta Lix and her
four children were trying to make their
way to Maj ion for shelter, and while
attempting to cross a railroad treste
the strong current overwhelmed the
party and ell perished. The oldest child
was a Eirl Of 16 years Of age and the
youngest an infant Of 8 months.
The river is still rising at Memphis,
and the indications are that It win con-
tinue to do so for some time to come.
The river stands at 86.9 feet rise
since yesterday morning Of one-tenth.
The conclusion as to continuation
in the rise is based upon the fact that
the rise is continuing at Cairo and
that heavy rains are reported in all
districts which feed the big river, both
along the upper portion and the mid
die valley. Throughout the entire
northwestern territory, the drainage
from which swells the volume of water
in the Upper Mississippi, the rainfall
continues. The same conditions pre-
vail in the territory which feeds the
Ohio and other tributaries, while the
heaviest rains of all are descending
oyer the already submerged Arkansas
territory.
The work of rescue and relief goes
forward with unablted zeal. Four or
five rescue steamers have arrived here
bringing several hundred refugees,
nearly all of whom are destitute, to be
cared for by the charity Of Memphis
The relief committee has its hands full
As long as the ovehow continues funds
will be needed to relieve the pressing
wants of the sufferers.

1t is said by those who appear to know
that the voters will be called upon to elect
two, and probably three, Judges next fall.
One Of them win retire even if the retiring
bill does not pass the Legislature. In that
event the formation of new alliances among
the Republican leaders viii follow. The
friends Of Congressman Brumm are urging
him to allow the use of his name in connec-
tion with judicial honors, but 50 far he has
fought shy and refuses TO consider the pro-
position In the event Of vacancy on the
Bench Mr.. Brumm may change his mind and
become a candidate. Ills friends would
regret to see him retire from tho halls Of
Congress, even toassume the judicial ermine;
yet they profess to see in such retirement
fitting tribute to his ability and a position Of
ten years tenure worthy Of their fayorts.
Sir. Brumm's nomination would be equiva-
lent to am election, and 10 is this view of the
case that actuates those who are urging the
Congressman to become q candidate in the
event of a vacancy ON the Bench.

to mind the rumor relative to the political
Triumvirate composed of three Republican
leaders, formed to control the destinies of the
party in this county. It comprising
prominent follower of Blackstone claiming
the county seat as his residence, and a repre-

the third member residing below the noun
tain. The latter is said to be only too willing
TO seek more congenial companions, and as
result Of this feeling now combinations will
be formed, it is stated, in the very near
future, and it will not be to the liking Of at
least one member Of the present Triumviral.
Prospective candidates for county offices
are becoming more active. The bone of CON
tention is the shrievalty nomination, no less
than half dozen faithful Republicans being
in the hands of their friends with longing
eyes towards this most luscious plum. Shen-
Sndoah has two candidates, and at least one
of them will make the contest interesting on

big one, too, when the county convention
assemblies. The contest for this nomination
bids fair to be an exceedingly interesting
