LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CASB. ‘Yesterday morning the dead body of Mary King was found in house 428 Essex Court, between 6th and 7th and H and I streets, in a sitting posture, her head resting ona table. It was thought that She had died of cramps in the stomach, as she had complained of pain in that region and had taken some pepper tea to relieve her. Yesterday Coroner Patterson with Dr. Hartigan calted to sec the body and it was thonght dest_ to have a post mortem examination. This was done, and the stomach was found much Irritated and congested, and It was removed and taken to Prof. De Smedt, District chemist, wit the request that a chemical anclysis be made. This morning Dr. Patterson called upon the chemist, who informed him that the stomach contained poison (arsenic) enough to kill ten men! There will probabiy be a coroner's inquest some time this afternoon or to-morrow. | Nothing 1s known as to whether it was sutekde or foul play. Harriet. King, the mother of Mary, lives in the sume house, ahd states that Mary’s brother diet some few weeks ago, Which occurrence has made her very sad since’ that tiine, and that she has ex- hibited much criet. She was at service at Mrs. Parker's, 719 9th street, and Slept_ In her mother's house. ‘This morning Detective McDevitt, went to the house of Mrs. Parker and found th t they had recently employed rat poison, a preparation known as “Kough on Rots,” composed largely of arsenic, and that one of the vessels used in its preparation Was missing, also a vial containing medicine com- posediin part of arsenic, which had been discarded yy a member of the family On account of its com- position. What will be developed at the inquest can not be predicted, whether a voluntary act or oul play. Dr. Patterson hag satisfied herself that tt was a clear case of suicide from melancholy, and will therefore hold no inquest. ——— A New Sewer tobe Built.

The experience here with the “pink eye” ept- demic among the horses, heretofore noticed in Tae Stax, is somewhat similar to that of other cities when 1t showed itself several months ago. In New York, Boston and other cities the disease had its run, and it was supposed that those cities were entirely free of it, but subsequently it re- turned. About the early part of September it | first appeared here, and it may be said now to | have affected over two-thirds of all the horses in the District. There is some question whether It 1s a contagious disease, as where horses affec by It have stood head to head with others not | affected, the latter have not caught the distemper. | ‘The disease Is not a serious one when promptly treated. The dancer ts that for want of proper | treatment the disease will run into dropsy or lung | trouble. The experience of stablemen 15 not alto- gether uniform, and neither are the modes em- ployed for the rellef of the animals. ‘The disease skips about unaccountabiy; frequently striking | one only of a group of stables ora single horse in | a stable. PINK EYE HERE THIRTY YEARS AGO. Some of the old stable men stute tht about 1852, the disease spread over nearly the whole country and that then on the Pacific coast many norses died, owing to the fact that there was litle or no shelter. In this section, however, there were few rick Flemming, 8th street near F, s 8 » it looked if the st that street were going to escape the disra that about a fortnight ago It struck that loca Out of some 40 Horses in his five were sick, but they ure now Mr. Flemming ‘noticed that the horses when first affected, frequently shifted their ‘eight trom one hind foot to the other; then would follow loss of appetite, the e3 would droop, ind occasionally matter ¥ on the inner Side of the eye-lid. Anotiier feature | of the disease was soreness in the region of the kidneys. Mr. Flemming treats them by giving physic to open the bowels, with warm mashes and tepid | Water, At the same time care should be taken to | keep the suiferers out of the cold and wet. OTHER STABLES. In Fadely’s stable a few horses have been | affected, but only one is now sick. In Bunzdorf’s stables some weeks ago there were about thirty horses under treatment. All have recovered. Mr. | James Keleher has two horses showing symptoms of the disease. In the stables of Sinshemer, G@ street, near 7th, and nearly every animal has been affected, | but they all are now well and at work. | Leadingham’s stsbies were run through by the disease, Dut the horses are now at work. Cow- | ling, on G street, had the disease, and most of his horses suffercd from it.

It Was thought at first to be a sort of malartal fever. In some of the cases the disease terminal drop- sy or lung trouble, and then they died. The otuer stables of this company all had the disease, and It Tun through all the stock of 650 horses; one case at the Georgetown stables terminating fataily. The treatment here was with aconite, belladona: and lobelia, and with but few exceptions the dis- | ease lasted’ a horse less than aweek; in some but atewdays. The sto-k was so worked, that with the exception of the 7th street line, where four cars had to be taken off for a few days, there was no time lost. The Belt Line stables have had the disease, and of the stock (about 120 horses) about all have been | touched, but all are getting well. A few weeks azo | there were so many sick horses that five of the Cars hid to be tuken off, but at this time all are running. The Metropolitan raftroad stables have been visited by tne disease. It made its appearance the P street car stables October 15th—some_west- ern horses arriving with it there, 193 were attacked, Th 90 hofses have had but three cases hav Yt street stables of ses, and no new ppeared there for a week. The dis- ease at the Pstrect stables necessitated the tak- ing off a few cars for a short time, but all the stock 1s now at work. Mr. L. W.’E;mmert, the Superintendent, thinks it 4s about over with in, his stables. ‘The Herdic company have some 150 or 160 horses at their two stables, and the plak eye run through the entire number, At one time, fora few days, two or three of the couches nad to be trken off, but there has been no serious ineonventence. THE EXPRESS STABLES. Adams’ Express horses, 42 in nuinber, all had the disease, and one case terminated fatally, but the company, by a judicious management of the stock, suffered no great inconvenience. Knox’s stables of 78 horses has had 35 cases, including two new ‘ones yesterday, but they ylelded readily to treat- ment. Nearly all the horses of the fire department have had the disease, and at this time there are 12 under treatment. The total number in the department is 44, and the Commissioners have found it neces- sary to hire extra horses as substitutes for the sick ones, Some of the verterinary surgeons are of the opin- fon that although the disease has apparently run its course in the District, that there will be cases here all through the winter. ‘Too much care can- not be taken of the animals, and in damp, cold weather they should be well stabled. Major J. H. King, of the 8. P.C. A., states that he has found many cases on the streets; the drivers and owners of some of the animals not knowing that the general weakness of the animals is caused by the “pink eye.” On Thursday he found one case where the horse had fallen on the street. ———— POSTMASTERS COMMISSIONED.—The President to- day signed the commission of William Stine as postmaster at Walla-Walla, Washington territory. Commissions as postmasters were sent to the fol- lowing persons in West Vinginla to-day: R. Frashi- er, Fort Gray, Wayne county, and A. M. Benuett, Bennett, Gilmer county. MISSING APPLICATIONS FOR PENSIONS TURNED Ur.—For some time past numerous complaints have been received by Commissioner Dudley from parties, siying that their appl ications for pensons have nol been acted on, and asking why. On looxing these cases up,’none could be found on file, nor were the applications to be found. Ye: terduy, however, there wis discovered in the di of a female clerk,about 1,200 of these papers, which had never been touched. . THe LATE PRESIDENT'S PRIVATE SECRETARY.— ‘Mrs. Garfield having requested Mr. J. 8. Brown to look over and put in proper shape the papers left by her husband, Mr. Brown has resigned his posi- tion as private secretiry to President Arthur. The relations between the President and Mr. Brown were of the most pleasant character. President Arthur requested t Mr. Brown remain for some Aime at least, and that he would be given a place ‘a8 good elsewhere, if not better, if he should de- cide to make a change tn the position of private secretary. Mr. Brown will remain in the city and conduct the work which Mrs. Garfield has put in his hands, He will at the same time of his leaving the White House—about December 1st—enter the banking firm of Bateman & Co., of this city, as a partner. ¥.
