Chattanooga, Feb. 21.--A very sen-sational suicide occurred in this city last Sunday. Rev. S. H.

He came here some months ago from Charleston, Tenn., having retired from the regular ministry during the present year. During the winter he has been en gagedjn holding protracted meetings. Two weeks ago he came home, and has been home ever since. Saturday night he bought a pint of whisky and put a lot of poison in it.

Tascott, the alleged Snell murderer, was in Los Angeles Thursday last, lodging in a well-known resort in the suburbs, where he had been preceded by a woman calling herself Mrs. Tascott, and claiming William Tascott as her brother. When the subject of Tascott’s identity with Clark was broached, the so-called Tas-cott quickly left the city and is be-lieved to be in Lower California across the border, with Detective Tyrrell, of. Chicago, in pursuit. The proprietor of the resort above mentioned presistently refused to allow the register to be seen and furthermore denies that any su h persons as Wm. Tascott and Mrs. Ta> cott had ever been within the walls. Miss Jessie Holmes Relea sed. Cincinnati, February 21.—Miss Jessie Holmes was brought into the United States court to-day for the pur-pose of hearing the Judge pronounce the wor s that released her from j ail. The United States district attorney made the usual motion to nolle pros the indict-ment against her in consideration for her having given testimony in the case and the court granted the motion. This is the last of the eight Fidelity indict-ments. French Politics.

Vernon, February 21.—Adjt.- Gen. Vance and Dr. Ranch arrived here at 11 o’c'ock last night and arranged with the citizens’ committee to have forwarded immediately a number of shelter tents for use of the homeless un-til permanent quarters can be furnished lor them. For the convenience of many without homes, the Air Line and the Louisville & Nashville railroads put specials on their roads to carry such as chose to go to friends in neighboring towns during the night and return during the day. There are many persons who believe that all the < ead people have not yet been taken from the ruins, and many point to the Crews block as the funeral pile in which the remains of three of the five unknown may yet be taken. The upper stories of this building were used as a boarding house and was fre-quented by railroad men, who stopped but for a day. A great effort was made in this building to release old man Mur-ray, but he was pinned by the head and legs in such a manner that he could not be moved. His cries were piteous as flames crept upon him and literally roasted him to death. His chaired re-mains were taken from the cellar of the bank at 9 o’clock this morning. At mid-night the streets were deserted. A small force has been at work all day and order is now coming out of choas. Off for Florida. The Shadow of Coming Death.

Fla. The party consisted of President and Mrs. Cleveland, Secre-tary and Mrs. Whitney, Colonel and Mrs. Lamont, Sinclair, the president’s valet, and Mrs. Cleveland’s maid. They [used a special train composed of an engine, baggage car, and one drawing-room car. The latter car is elegantly fur-nished and appointed and was provided with everything that could add to the ease and comfort of the distinguished passengers during ’heir long journey. The train will make its first stop at Savannah, Ga., where it will arrive at 8 o’clock to-morrow morning. The party will remain there an hour and will take a drive over the principal thoroughfares. They will arrive at Jacksonville at 1 o’clock in the afternoon. A visit will be made to the exposition, and a reception be held by President and Mrs. Cleveland in the evening. The next day, Thursday, will be spent in St. Augustine, where another reception will be held. The start for home will be made Friday morning and the train will makb no stops except such as are necessary for coaling up, etc. Col. Lamont said the presid ent had prepared no speeches for the trip and did not expect to make any. Looking to The Future. Washington, Feb; 21.—The possi-bility of the telegraph some day being a part of the postal system of the United Sta'es has at last been officially recog-nized by the government, in the act to authorize the construction of a railroad, wagon and foot passenger bridge across the Mississippi river, nea’ Burlington, la., approved by the President. Here-tofore all such bills have made such pro-posed structures post routes, but this act goes further, and says : “And the United Siates shall have the right of way for postal telegraph purposes across said bridge.” It is the first time, it is said, that such a provision has been in-serted in a bridge bill, and is the first eSicial recognition by Congress and the Executive of the probable use of such routes for a postal telegraph. The Crown Prince. San Remo, February 21.—A bulletin issued this morning says the German Crown Prince rested better last night and was less troubled with coughing and spitting. He appeared at his bedroom window yesterday and many people saw him. The Prince of Wales paid him a visit last evening and lound him better than he expected. The New Minister to Liberia. Washington, February 21.—Rev. J. C. Price, colored, president of Living-ston college, Salisbury, N. C., has receiv-ed a letter from Secretary Bayard in-forming him that the president has ap-pointed him minister resident and con-sul general of the United States in Liberia. Mr. Price has not yet decided whether he will accept the office. Garden Seed and Onion Sets. Just received from David Landreth & Sons, Philadelphia, a full assortment of garden seed and onion sets for this year’s planting. They are all guaranteed fresh. We bring only the sort that are suitable for this section. New seed potatoes to arrive^about February 1. Marshall & Heard.
