The ted ahich was cold in death nies ido ly in avightgown, was Viscoyere? by Mrs. Manion’s colored man servant about 7 o'clock this morning. Waters, the ec lored servant, with out touching the body, ran frighten- ed into the house, where he told the cook of his discovery. She imme diately called Mrs Manion, who had not yet arieen, and toldher that Mr. McCullagh had “fallen out of the window and killed himslf.” Just how Mr McCullagh bappen- ed to fall out of the only be a matter of conjecture had been ill several Intely was compelled to keep bis room. He passed his last night un attended, as he had during his illness Wednesday evening Mr. McCul- lagh was in the best of spirite, although he complained of not being quite so well. The smother ing sensation which had troubled him at intervals during his illness had returned in a mild form and rendered him languid and drowsy He retired to bed about 7 o'clock, leaving word with the household that he did not wish to be disturb- ed unless by his physician. Dr. Hughes made his customary night call about 7:30 o'clock and ex pressed surprise to Mr. McCullagh at finding him in bed at such an early hour. “I am very weary,” Mr. McCul lagh said, “and I thought I would getas much rest as possible to night. I expect my barber early in the morning to trim my hair andI want to be up and ready ” Befora going to bed Mrs Manion looked into Mr. MeCullagh’s room She said that everything in the room was in order and then retired to her own apartments. About mid night she woke up and detected an odor of escaping gas. She investi gated and found a burner in the combination gas and electric light chandlier, which bangs suspended in the center of;Mr McCullagh’s room. open. The odor of gas was very strong in the apartments. Mrs Manion turned on an electric light and shut off the gas Mr. McCul lagh woke up. “Joe,” she said, ‘did you know gas was escaping in your room? You would have been a dead man in the morning, if I had not discovered os otis Mr. McCullagh was apparently too drowsy to realize what his sis ter-in law said.

Mr MeCul laugh alone was uoburt. As a Washington correspondent Mr McCuillaugh added to the repu | tation he had acquired during the] war. His familiarity with political principles, as evidenced by his ar ticles, was such that his advice said to have been sought by states men. He was called the originator of inteviewing, having practiced that brauch of journalism: in a manner was i seldom if ever cqualed. His first | 1uterviews with President Johnson ; were copied all over the country. | Between 1868 and 1870 Mr. Me Cullagh was managing editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer Then be bought an interest in the Chicago Republi- ean, now the Inter Ocean, but when the property was practically destroy- ed inthe 1871 fire, returned to St. Louis, where he lived till death. He accepted the editorship of the Globe, one of the two rival republican newspapers. There was a snap in its editorial comments that St. Louis had not been accustomed to; there was anair of sensationalism about ite news depaotments that was new in that field. When the Democrat and the Globe consolidated Mr. McCullagh was placed in absolute charge of the Globe Democrat, which position he held to the day of his death. Mr. M:Cullagh’s last iilness came upon him shortly after the close of the late Republican National convention. It took the form of acute astbma, complicated with nervous depression When he passed through the acute stage he found himself slow in re- covery. His limbs had lost their vigor, and his arms were numb and there were premonitions that the spell. Mr. McCullagh would not admit that he was failing either physically or mentally. He insisted on manag ing his newspaper from his bedroom All through yesterday he eat in his arm-chair wrapped in blankets, re ceived reports from his subordinates and gave them orders for the con duct of the paper. Mr. MeCuliagh was a hard worker and usually spent eight or ten hours at his desk. He exercised su pervi- sion in person over every detail and in every department of the paper. He usually wrote with his own hand a column or more of editorial copy each day.

Havana, Dec 30.—It is cfficially stated that a Spanish column bas had an engagement with rebel par- ties under Sotolongo on the Sotolon- go.ranch, near Jaguey Grande, Pro- vince of Matanzas. The ineurgents are alleged to have been completely dispersed, with the loss of 15 killed and one wounded. The Spaniards bad a corporal wounded. It is known that this engagement was simply an attack made by the troops upon the detenseless Pacificos ou the ranch, and that 15 persons re ported to have been killed in battle were bruially massacred.

New York, Dee 31 —Bradstreet’s gency has prepared statements of ithe failures tor the year 1896, and also a comparative table of the bank clearings for 1896, 1895 and 1894. The year’s record is a bat one. The total number of failures for the year is placed at 15,112, an increase of 16 per cent over the failures of 1895 and 1S per cent over 1894 . The total volume of liabilities is greatest in the history of the coun. try, save for the pauie years of 1893 and 1884. lou compiling a statement of the bank clearings the same unsatisfac- tory business conditions are shown. Tu all the principal cities a decrease is shown, the per cent for the entire country being 33.
