PIGOTT’S WRETCHED END. Surprise in London that He Had the to Kill Himself. Special Cable Dispatch to Tae Evenrxe Star. Lonpon, March 2.—Pigott’s suicide at Madrid overshadows all else. Astonishment is ex- pressed that such a caitiff had the courage to commit suicide, but the alternative was penal spent more than a thousand a year in de- |" bauchery. Sir Charles Russell pronounced Pigott the worst man he knew after Carey. The chagrin of the Parnellites over the suicide is intense. Parnell himself, who is not vindictive, only regrets his death as limiting the chance of unearthing the conspiracy. When Pigott entered the witness box Davitt ex- claimed: “Now, the fat old coon is caught in the trap at last.” His suicide will help home | rule. The tories who accuse Labouchere of bribing Pigott to fly cannot say that he bribed him to commit suicide. Had Pigott died of heart disease in the witness box he! would have recalled Ananias and | ‘His suicide recalls Judas Iscariot. ilfred Lawson says Ananias was A CHILD IN LYING COMPARED TO PIGOTT. Labouchere declares that the babes in the woods were Solomons to the managers of the Times, A friend visited Pigott’s house in | Kingstown this week and found all his busi- ness letters in neat order, All compromising letters had been burned. Pigott's relatives says Houston tempted him. ' Mrs. Pigott’s corpse was unburied because of | their poverty when the temptation was offered of a higher price for the documents. In court there was curious sympathy with Pigott. Bryce. the historian, said he thought twenty years of a blackmailing life was a pathetic and horrible spectacle. A ular song is now be- ing sung in the music and the chorus is enthusiastically received, “And wher’ "Oh, wisers eau ne Bef oo ‘Oh, why did he trot and spoil all the lot And leave the poor Times up a tree?” PIGOTT BETRAYED HIMSELF. He Telegraphed to Solicitor Soames that He was in Madrid. Lorpox, March 2.—A dispatch received early this morning from Madrid said that the body of the man who shot himself at the Hotel des Ambassadeurs yesterday when taken into cus- to-day by an officer had not been identified as that of Pigott and that the authorities were awaiting a portrait of the latter before deter- mining whether he was the man who killed himself. A dispatch received this afternoon, however, removes all doubt that the suicide was Pigott. His identity has been fully es- tablished by the officials of the British embassy. HE HAD COMMUNICATED WITH SOAMES, On Thursday an interpreter showed Pigott the sights of Madrid. On that day Pigott sent a telegram addressed “Ponsonby” to the office in London of Mr. Soames, the Times’ solicitor. | This telegram announced his safe arrival in | Madrid and gave his address. It is inferred that the English government learned from this telegram that Pigott was in Madrid. TO FORMALLY IDENTIFY THE BODY. It is reported that a note book, containing the addresses of a number of persons in Ire- land, was found on the body. Pigott’s suicide has caused a profound sensation throughout England. Witnesses have started from Paris for Madrid for the pi of formally identi- fying the body. The Madrid police authorities intend to hold the effects of the suicide pending an order from the court relative to their dis- It is learned this afternoon that the telegram Pigott sent from Madrid on Thursday to Mr. Soames’ office in this city was addressed to Mr. Shannon, the Times’ Dublin solicitor, not to “Ponsonby,” as first reported. On the receipt of the telegram Mr. Soames notified the police of the whereabouts of Pigott. THE INAUGURAL STAR. Another Gigantic Edition on Monday. Tue Stak, with the facilities afforded by one of the best equipped newspaper offices in the country, is enabled to-day to spread before its readers a greatly enlarged edition containing the fullest accounts of all the occurrences of the day and especially of interesting mattersrelating to the inauguration. The issues of to-day, Monday and Tuesday together will form a most interesting, accurate and complete record of the inauguration. The paper will be issued again Monday in 16-page form, and will con- tain an extended illustrated account of the in- augural ceremonies, including the inaugaral | address and a detailed description of the grand procession. The illustra- tions will include over two hundred Portraits of officials and officers of organizations in line, and innumerable sketches of scenes and incidents. The additional space secured by enlarging the form of the paper will be given entirely to the readers of Tne) Stan, as the eight extra pages will be filled with | reading matter of the best kind, and not de- voted to advertisements. With every paper sold over the counter or on the street Monday will be sold a copy of the valuable Stan supplement—an accurate and complete map of Washington, which is issued to-day. INAUGURATION WEATHER. A Rain Storm Coming, but it May Clear by Monday. The great question of the hour turns on the | kind of weather that will be the lot of that portion of humanity centered in Washington next Monday. Politicians may discuss cabi- | | nets, make slates, break them, and dip into all other occult subjects relative to the art, but the great mass of people, the public, are pon- dering over what is to them a much weightier problem—the state of the heavens and the air day after to-morrow. At this time of year THE CHANCES are decidedly against good weather, and many a vain regret is to be heard that the inaugura- tion does not occur month or #0 later. | the other regions o cabinet. So after surging around in the crowd and regular course of inauguration timc, the friends eventually found their way. babbling confusion, outside it was still worse, could not be blame space broad enor it could be seen that this slight regard for order was due to the influence of the clubs of a squad ie Oy THE HOTELS PACKED WITH GUESTS Scenes About the Different Depots. TROUBLES OF THE HOTEL OLERKS. the Great Mass of People The city is dressed in gala attire and the great throngs in the streets, especially along the Avenue, show that the inauguration festi- val has begun. All this, however, is only the promise of the scenes that will be witnessed to- morrow and Monday. Probably the largest crowd that was ever gathered in this city, which has witnessed so many notable scenes in the past,will be assembled here during the next few days, The hotels and boarding-houses are either filled or are rapidly filling up. At the hotels the lobbies and corridors open to the public are a perfect jam. It is next to impossi- ble for one to wedge his way through the crowd, and it is about as difficult to obtain an audience with the hotel clerk as with the Presi- dent-elect or the President. The philosophy of the hotel clerk is sorely tried just now. THE DESTRACTED HOTEL CLERK. He is the target at which is continuously aimed and discharged a volley of questions, Men that are unable to approach the hotel counter when they come within hearing dis- tance frantically wave their arms in the air and shout. The easy languor which characterizes the average clerk on ordinary occasions dis- appears, and he fires off the answers to the rattling discharge of questions with the rapid- ity. if not the precision, of a Gatling gun. While the battle 8 about the hotel counter the hotel are enlivened with hurrying, scurrying servants. Travel- stained men and women pass — in groups, following very frequently the cot bed, which is familiar to such alarge number of the inaugu- ral visitors. The demand for qnarters increases with porns ratio each day, and it is safe to say that the houses in this city, public and pri- vate, will be pretty well crowded, at least until after the 4th of March. Still, it is re- ported that there isroom for all, and those who apply to the committee on public comfort are able to find accommodations at reasonable prices, NEW ABRIVALS. The scene at the depots last evening, upon the arrival of the trains, showed that the inau- guration period had really set in. The interior of the buildings and the long platforms were crowded with people waiting for friends ex- pected on the incoming trains. When the trains arrived, and the aang a poured out, the crowd became an almost immoveable mass. It was impossible for friends to find each other, and those who had gone to the depots to show that polite attention were obliged to return home without ehegie | whether the visitors had come in ornot. Added tothe confusion of the crowd, the heavily-laden trains came in divided up into five and six sections, and on what cuey section one’s friends might be, or what particular train it happened to be, was just as impossible to find out as if inquirers | wanted to know the exact make-up of the new 8 little while PEOPLE GAVE UP IN DESPAIR and returned to their homes, where, in the due If there was a crowd inside the depot and a As the strangers stepped on the pavement they if they concluded that the depot was surrounded by a — and angry mob. As far as the eye could reach, in the glare of the electric light, there could be seen a mass of men frantically waving their arms and howling with all the force their powerful lungs. It was impossible at first to distinguish any particular sound in the chorus of yells, That they were in earnest the most confused traveler would have been willing to take his oath. But whether the crowd wanted his life or proposed to tear down the depot was an open question.

If it rains here before midnight to-night the chances are that Monday will be clear, at least after noon. Therefore the sooner the rain comes the better the chances will be. It it rains by 6 o'clock to-day Monday is almost sure to be fair; hope will have received a black eye, GEN. GREELEY THINKS THE RAIN WILL BE OVER BY MONDAY MORNING, the sounds in the medley.

At the headquarters of the public comfort committee to-day a Star reporter was informed that they had accommodations for 15,000 peo- ple still available. THE PENNSYLVANIA TROOPS have commenced to arrive, the twelfth regi- ment coming in yesterday afternoon. The ninth arrived this morning and the first about noon. These are all debarked at Benning, where the extensive tracks of the cattle yard and the 5 miles additional tracks recently laid afford the best facilities. These come into the city at H street northeast by the Benring roa ant A sap at once to the quarters provid for them. LOOKING AFTER THE BAGGAGE. The crowds coming in at the B. and O. depot are well looked after by the committee on pub- lic comfort, who turn the unassigned persons over to messenger boys, who pilot them to where they can obtain ySpeed ‘The baggage force has been doubled, and the large piles of baggage are quickly disposed of. The transfer company profited in this re- gard by the last inauguration,and by increasing and organizing the additional force they have been enabled to keep well up with the work. “Judging from the amount of baggage handied,” said one this morning, “those now arriving have come to stay, and evidertly the impression of many is that they will not find it necessary to return in a hurry.” Gen. J. Madison Drake and his world-famed veteran zonaves, of Elizabeth. N. J., accom- panied by their own band of forty musicians, will arrive in this city at about 4 o'clock to- morrow afternoon. ‘They will be met at the B. and P, depot by the Old Guard and Kit Carson Post, G. A. B., and escorted to their quarters at G. A. R. hail, opposite Willard’s, which they will occupy till’ Wednesday. zouaves will be guests of theG. A. R. AN AMPLE SUPPLY OF FOOD. The vast throng of people who will be in Washington from now until Tuesday has got to be accommodated with food and shelter in some way, and the means by which this is to be accomplished has tested the energies of hotel, boarding house and restaurant keepers for some time. Merchants and dealers in grocer- ies and meats have been laying in large stocks of goods so that it is now believed that ample provision has been made for the unprece- dented influx of strangers that is expected. Communications with Baltimore, Philadel- phia, Norfolk and New York, is so easy and rapid, that whatever additional supplies are needed can be quickly and Promptly supp lied. All. the wholesale lealers have al- ready about four times their usual amount of goods on hand and have made arrangements with their correspondents so thata telegraphic dispatch will immediately forward whatever more is required. Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Varnell & Sons and Nelson Morris & Co., the firms which furnish the pfineipal supply of fresh meats, have laid in fty carloads of beef, Ngo rag the carcases of at least 2,000 head of cattle. There has been an unprecedented rush for hams, tongues and corn beet, from which to make sandwiches, though THE HOTELS PREPARED. All the hotels have of course anticipated the heavy demands that would be made upon them and have stocked their larder to their fullest extent. The greatest rush will of course be made for the Avenue hotels, for they are the first to greet the eye of the stranger. The Metropolitan, while it cannot lodge onl about 500 persons, is prepared to furnish mea: to a thousand people. The National can accommodate about 800 with quarters and expects to furnish meals to at least two thoutend gaests daily. The St. James expects to doa much larger business because it is in such close proximity to the B. & P. depot, and will be prepared to fur- nish 5,000 meals daily during the rush. Several hundred feet of counters are being built where guests may stand while eating. The Harris house has made ample prepara- tions for supplying about ten times its ordinary complement of guests; and the Hotel Johnson, Howard house, and the other smaller hotels on tho Avenue have fully prepared for the crush. Willard’s hotel is almost soe guests and Mr. Staples has made arrangemenf$ te feed at least two thousand people daily as long as the crowd may last. ‘The Ebbitt is crowded and the overflow goes into boarding-houses and private dwellings on F and G streets, The Arlington and the Normandie will only take regular guests, and though they are both full, the former having about 350 guests, they will not have the crowd that will oppress many of the other hotels, Wormley's and Welcker's are having their capacity taxed to its utmost. while at the Ham- ilton over 3,000 applicants have been turned away. At none of these hotels is there felt any alarm that the supply of food will be insufficient, and no guest need be under any apprehension that | his appetite will not be fully and satisfactorily appeased. Il the restaurants have been laying in ad- ditional supplies, and as thousands of those who come to Washington on Monday will not remain over night the lunch rooms and restau- rants will catch their trade. —— THE NATIONAL LIBRARY. Gen. Casey’s Plan Adopted. The national library building is to be constructed according to Gen. Casey's re- commendations, as the House this after- noon agreed to the Senate providing for appropriation, instead of $4,000,000 proposed by the House. The debate was short, but the weight of the argument wasin favor of a brary rao that will not only be an ornament to the city of Washington, butja credit to the entire country, Messrs.

Mr. Miller is maintaining a “dignified silence.” He was in the lobby of the Arlington this morning looking content if not lo Immediately after the election Alger, Michigan, and Miller, of New York, were upon as certain to go into the cabinet.

There is still some bickering over one place, but this is the slate that is generally accepted: Blaine, Secretary of State. Windom, Secretary of Treasury, Proctor, Secretary of War. ‘Tracy, Secretary of Navy. Wanamaker, Postmaster-General, Noble, Secretary of the Interior, Miller, of Indiana, Attorney-General. Palmer, Secretary of Agriculture. THE FIGHT THAT IS BEING MADE NOW is to do what the friends of Mr. Clarkson thought yesterday they had accomplished—to | oust Miller of Indiana, transfer Noble to the Department of Justice and make Clarkson Secretary of the Interior. It is known that | General Harrison is not disposed to make this change, yet he may doso. ‘The Iowa delegation called this morning, headed by General Hender- son, who is Clarkson's most vigorous champion, and had a talk with General Harrison on the subject. The result of their interview is not | publicly known, but shortly after noon General Clarkson himself was CLOSETED WITH THE PRESIDENT-ELECT. He remained for some time, and after his ar- rival all other callers were refused admission. Quay is still working for Clarkson, it is under- stood, and one thing that is calculated, per- haps, to increase the Iowan’s chances of ulti- success is the fact that Chairman Hous- ton, of Indiana, and his lieutenants, are here fighting with all their might to get law-partner Miller out. Houston has been offered a pretty | good thing not quite as high as the cabinet, but | he is not disposed to quit the fight and ac- cept it. MILLER IS THE ONE ACCOMMODATING MAN | on Gen. Harrison’s cabinet slate. It is Gen. Harrison's warm friendship for him that puts him in the place, without any politics to it; and, | in return, his devotion to his chief makes him | ready and willing to do anything that will re- lieve the President-elect from embarrassment. | His entire sympathy and his accommodating | attitude makes Gen. Harrison the more desir- | ous to hold him. He is the man whose personal | loyalty to Gen. Harrison outbalances all thoughts of ambition, and if it becomes advis- able for some other to go into the cabinet in his lace, he will retire amiably, without any heart- rison. This leaves one place that may be changed if the change has to be made. And the CLARKSON MEN ARE STILL WORKING. When it was found that Senator Palmer had accepted the Secretaryship of Agriculture 1t was suddenly developed that Stockbridge and him, and were trying to get him out. This antagonism was no sooner known in Michigan than telegrams began to pour in upon General Harrison from prominent politicians and busi- ness men in the state endorsing Palmer, Nearly a thousand of these dispatches have been re- ceived up to this time. Alger called on General Harrison this morning TO PROTEST AGAINST THE APPOINTMENT. When they came down it is said that Stock- bridge made a bet of a sixty-dollar suit of clothes against a silver dollar that Palmer would not be in the cabinet. But this was gen- erally regarded as merely an expressson of his wishes in the matter and was not inspired b anything he had learned from General Harri- son. ‘WINDOM ENDORSED. Senator-elect Washburn, of Minnesota, visited the capitol to-day, and was cordially received in the Senate. He stated to a Stam reporter ing that every member. of the Minnesota legislature, excepting four, heartily endorsed ex-Senator Windom for a place in Harrison's cabinet. Mr. Washburn said he received upon his arrivai here last night similar dispatches from various parts of the state, During the morning Senator Palmer had a long conference with Gen. Harrison, A LARGE CROWD IN THE ARLINGTON LOBBY. The largest crowd that has yet assembled in the Arlington lobby was there this morning. | It was a very different gathering froin that of yesterday and the day before, though most of | the same men were there. The same men, but how changed in expression of countenance, THE PLATT MEN HAPPY. The Platt men who have been in such astate of dumps, were smiling and as happy as school boys on vacation, Gen, Tracy was there among in expression of congratulation. “The whole thing is over! It is settled!” was laimed on every hand. The one problem that had been worrying them so long was solved and they were happy. The conversation that heretofore has been conducted in mysterious whispers from out of the way corners swelled into a loud buzzing. The scheming has changed | and there was seen a group of two or three in | earnest whispered consultation. The faces of these betrayed no emotion, but they were not REJOICING WITH THE REST. | They were supposed to be some of the friends one of them whom he knew, a well-known New | York statesman, and got this intimation of settled. Oh, yes! but—— Well, it may de- velop that there is some opposition bor People in Brooklyn. It is not apf to, but it might. You see it is not yet known certainl how the selection will be received. Miller will say nothing against it.” This was THE ONLY WHISPER OF DOUBT that broke in upon the general rejoicing. Gen. Tracy accepted the situation and mingled in the crowd, taking their congratulations mod- estly. He is a straight old man, with white hair and long white whiskers.
