The cause of his death is not stated. There are few men in this country better known than Col. Forney, and few who in their re spective spheres exercised more influ ence than he did. For many years pre vious to the war he was an active and leading Democrat, owning and editing t.wn diilv capers, the Press in Philadel phia and the Chronicle in Washington, in both of which he championed, with signal ability, the cause of Democracy. He also occupied for some years the position of chief clerk of the House of Bepresentatives. When the war broke out he severed his connection with the Democratic party and gave his cordial support to the administration of Mr. Lincoln in its war measures, and was one of the trusted advisers of Secretary Stanton, who had also been a Democrat. In his support, however, of tne aamin istration there was no The record of murders and attempts j v,- f of a nf Mirhiiran floor 10 oner a rosoiuuuu wiuwuoui- at murders in the State of ired to have referred to the committee m:M.a lonnarv irsl luou uu 100. old man Christiancy's State.

When the Democratic convention met at Cincinnati, when the balloting com menced for candidates, he telegraphed his friend Daniel Dougherty to nom inate Gen.

If John Sherman is remarkable for anything and he is remarkable for several things it is for an extraordin ary amount of cunning, by which, main ly, he has been enabled to work himself up to his present degree of prominence. He is always planning, always looking ahead, planning either for John Sher man or for the party to which John Sherman is indebted for everything he has. He had hardly got well settled in his seat in the Senate, before he intro duced a bill for the reduction of the three and a half per cent, interest on certain bonds to three per cent by issu ing $300,000,000 of three per cents, to buy up the three and a half per cents. In the last Congress the Democrats con tended that the debt could be funded at three per cent, but the Republicans went for three and a half, the Demo crats maintaining that the bonds could readily be funded at three. The readi ness with which the three-and-a-halfs were taken demonstrated the correct ness of the position which they had taken, and which they would have car ried into successful practice had it not been for the veto of Mr. Hayes. It was the avowed intention of the Democrats in Congress to resume their efforts in this direction at the present term of Congress, and Mr. Randall had in a pub lic speech in New York some time ago announced this as one of the planks in the Democratic platform. Hence the haste with which Sherman introduced his bill on the very first day of the meet ing of the Senate, the object being to claim the credit for what he believes to be a popular movement, and deprive the Democratic party of the prestige of the success of such a measure. It was a shrewd move and about as smart a thing as Sherman has done for some time in keeping with his style of tac tics and characteristic of the man. A Frisntf nl Holocaust In the Vienna Theatre Vienna, Dec. 8. This evening at 7 o'clock the theatre, formerly the comic opera house, where Sarah Bernhardt recently performed, took fire owing to tbe fall of a lamp on the stage and the building was consumed. The house was tolerably full and the loss of life wa.H verv crreat. London, Dec. 9. A later telegram from Vienna, dated this morning, says 270 bodies have now been recovered from the ruins of the theatre. The fourth gallery has not yet been ex plored. It is believed that not a single person escaped from that gallery and that verv few escaped from the third gallery. The corpses last recovered are little more than charred fragments. Gross neglect is charged against tne management of the theatre. The law prescribes the use of oil lamps in the corridors of theatres, so that exit shall be discernible in the event of failure of gas, but this precaution was utterly neglected. The person in charge of the iron curtain between the stage and auditorium appears to have fled at the first alarm. Tbe Flipper Case Cloned Claimed Tbat lie Wa Carelew, bat Mot Guilty in Intent. San Antonio, Dec. 9. The' argu ments in the Flipper case were deliver ed to day and the court rendered its verdict, but what it is will not be known until passed upon by the reviewing authorities. The question of embezzle ment was dwelt upon at length by both sides. The defense claimed that Flip per could not be convicted legally under the charge, and that aside from that he was entirely innocent of any guilty in tention or conduct tending to establish embezzlement that he had been care less in his manner of selling commis saries to enlisted men and to laundries on time and in not collecting the money, but was not dishonest; that when he discovered his shortage he was afraid to speak of it because of his peculiar position in the army, and he was thus fed into making a false statement, hoping to be able to raise money to make his accounts good. A Freight Train Breaks Through a Bridge St Louis, Dec. 9. Two of the three men who went down with the freight train on the St Charles bridge last night came out all right. One man, Jack Kirkley, engineer, is unaccounted for. The train consisted of an engine, tender, 32 cars and a caboose. When the engine was nearly across the span which fell, the caboose was aWay back on span No 3. just leaving the St Charles side of the river. The span wnicn went uowu uiu so in its entirety, as the two survivors felt the bridge seeming to drop out from under them.

Daniel G.
