month , namely onthe , 12th , 13th or
I4th ; on the 16th and 17th , and
astly , on the 2Cih or 21st. The
ist two periods will give ns heavy
unow falls , one of which is. likely to
* e the heaviest fall of the winter.
This- will ba pretty general over a
rga part of North America , and is
* Jely to cross over to Great Britain.
'
'There will also bo one more cold dip
of considerable severity. The month
will end with rain and slash. "

NEW YOEK , March 11 1 a. m.
The attendance at the garden during
last evening w&s larger than on any
previous evening except Sunday.
Fully 5,000 spectators were present
at 8 o'clock. O'Leary , who had almost
made up his lost ground during the
early part of the day , fell off again in
the evening. At 7 o'clock Yaughan ,
after tJdng over an hour's rest , came
on the track and walked at the rate of
five miles an hour. His style was
much admired , and frequently ap
plauded. O'Leary'sefforts during
the day seemed to have had a bad
effect upon him , and he was frequent
ly compelled to retire to his cabin for
short rests , and , it w&s elated , for
stimulant also. Rowell , who had an
nounced his retirement from the race
early in the evening , cama on the
track at 8:30 : , and gave an exhibition
of his running powers. His efforts ,
which at times reached ten a miles an
hour rate , was loudly applauded.
O'Leary , after walking one mile , was
compelled to seek his cabin for rest.
The bookmakers , seeing that his
chances for beating Yaughan were
very slim , offered to bet 100 to 30
against him , with very few takers.
Yaughan is now the strong favorite ,
and his winning Is looked upon as al
most certain. At 9 o'clock O'Leary
was still off the track. Bowell left
the track at 9:10 , after completing a
lx-mlle exhibition run in forty min
utes. Ho seemed not the least dis
tressed , and walked into his cabin
laughing. At 9:15 Vaughan was alone
on the track , having obtained s
twelve-mile lead. He took matters
comparatively ea y , and limited him-
sell to 5 four-mile an hour gait.
O'Leary cama on the track at 9:33 : ,
and after walking two laps retired to
his cabin , much to the disgust of the
spectators. It was then operly stated
that he had been taking stimnUnts
too "frequently , but his trainer refused
to give any Information upon the sub
ject. < At 11 o'clock the score was :
Vaoghan 340 , O'Leary 325.
The score at midnight stood : Yaugh
an 342 , O'Leary 325.

Terrible Fate of a Young Lady.
LITTLE ROCK , Ark. , March 9. The
details of a shocking murder have just
) oen received from Craighead county.
Che facts are these : Benjamin Ish-
mael , a wealthy and eccentric planter ,
ives a few milei from Jonesboro , in
n the county named , and In an lao-
atsd locality. His family consisted
of one daughter , beautiful girl of 18 ,
and two or three boys. His wife is
dead , and his daughter was the only
child remaining with him. On the
day the murder occurred he left home ,
joing to the mill , some mfles away ,
eaving Miss Tshmael alone In the
louse , and promising to return short-
y. When he came back , after the
apae of some hours , he found his
daughter lying on the floor of the sit
ing-room , weltering in a pool of blood ,
She had been , brutally murdered by
1 who had entered
s-'mo person or persons
tered the house for the purpose of
robbpry , as It waa generally supposed
that Ishmaei had a largo sum of money
concealed somewhere about the prem
ises. The body of the young girl
presented a horriblt. appearance , be
ing a mnss of cuts and bruises , the
murder having been accomplished
with a club or axe. The room indica
ted that a desperate struggle had
taken place , and Miss Ishmael had
fought bravely for life. Tne furni
ture was overturned , and everything
in the chamber was stained with
blood. It is thought the
robbers first demanded that she should
tell them where her father kept his
money , and upon her refusing sot upon
her. When found she wca uncon
scious , and died without giving the
slightest sign or clue by whish her
murderers could be hunted down. A
number of negroes have been appre
hended ou suspicion , and other arrests
aru reported as likely to follow. The
neighborhood of the tragedy is-in i
fever of excitement , and the sequel
may ba the apoenriuca of , and some
swift work by , Judge Lynch.

Pork-Eaters' Horror.
Special Dispatch to The " * t.
CHICAGO , March 11 1 a. m. Per
haps tha most indignant set of men in
the country , over Consul Crump's re
port of the ravages of hog cholera and
trichinosis , w s the Chicago board of
trade. They appointed a committee
whose investigations In some degree
relieve Mr. Crump of odinm. 1'hey
find that he has been deluged with
communications from the west , giving
the most alarming accounts of the rav
ages of these diseases , and that news-
pipers , with articles marked , have
been constantly forwarded to him at
Philadelphia , the object being un
doubtedly to influence the market. It
is stated that Mr. Crump based his re
port largely on the state agricultural
reports of Illinois. Investigation of
these show some alarming figures.
The report for 1878 , signed by S. D.
Fisher , the secretary , says 1,445,000
hogs died of cholera in this state that
year. The report of 1879 gives the
number of hogs and pigs dying of that
disease at 1,391,000. The report for
1880 givea cholera deaths as only
227,259. These figures have surpris
ed board of trade men quite as much
as did Mr. Crump's consular report ,
and they have ssnt a committee to
Springfield to investigate the state ag
ricultural department , and ascertain
where Mr. Fisher got his data. It is
feared thst by these zeports Mr.
Crump's representations to the Brit
ish government will be sustained , and
that Secretary Elaine , in having con
tradicted them , will bo placed in an
embarrassing position.

Special Dlapatch to The Bee.
PARIS , March 11 1 a.m. . When
the alarm WEI give'n thatthe maga-
ziu dn Printemps was burning , the
firemen did what they could with the
engines at their disposal , but all was
useless. The flames spread with
frightful rapidity , and within three
hours Printempa itielf was a complete
wreck. At 9:30 : the fire had extend
ed to adjoining houses in Hue do
Province , and waa threatening those
in Eue db Coumatin. and oa the boule
vard HauHsmsnn. Two.ataam fire
engines and a few pipes were at work.
The whole inside of the store was
burnt. Every few minutes a wall fell
in with an ominous crarffa , to tbe peril
of the firemen and soldiers _ on duty.
The whole neighborhood H still in
a state of violent excitementr and it
is difficult to gat any accurate information
mation as to the cause of the fire. It
is said that It Wis due to the careless
ness of the night watchman. Several
firemen , who weru dragged out badly
bucnt from the glowing embers , are
lying in a precarious condition. At
11:30 : the roof ot Printemps was com
pletely destroyed , and the frontage in
Bua du Havre was literally crumbled
into pieces. The losa is greatly 2 > ggra <
vatod by the fact that the spring aea-

this time of year average several hun
dred thousand francs daily. The
amount of new stock accumulated waa
very large.
