SWILL MR. FULLER ACCEPT? Soe Reassas Why the Qbicagoan May Not Was the Chlet Ju.stsebip. WASHINGTON, May 0.-There is a rumor current among those intimate with the President that it is possible Mr. Melville W. Fuller will not accept the position of Chief Justice of the United States. It will be remembered that when the President offered Mr. Fuller four other appointments he declined any office for reasons obvious to those who knew that he was dependent upon his practice for the support of his family. In this instance the President felt certain that Mr. Fuller would accept, and did not deem it necessary to ask if he would. After his name was sent to the Senate on Monday last and the nomination was known throughout the country, it was naturally expected at the White house that some re cognition would come from Mr. Fuller of the great honor conferred upon him. The day passed without the slightest acknowl edgement of that honor. The President, supposing Mr. Fuller was observing to the extrenu all the proprieties it was possible to invent, met him half way, and at once addressed Mr. Fuller a letter informing him of the compliment that day bestowed by naming him for the most ex alted judicial office in his gift. A reply came promptly, recognizing in the most befitting manner the President's act, but it was wholly silent about whether he would accept or not. Eeasons for this were at once asked of those who knew Mr. Fuller. The only one that appeared reasonable was that a gentleman. with seven daughters, accus. tomed to all the refinements and conveni enoes of cultured society, would still need the large income of their father's profesr,ion to maintain their social status wherever they might live. The salary of Chief Justice is only $10,600 per annum. 'ro accept the office would make him dependent upon that salary and such income as he might derive from his Chicago property. Whether the total would then be enough to maintain in Washington the same social standing that Mr. Fuller's family has enjoyed for many years in Chicago is a question that the President's advisers were enabled from years of experience in Washington to answer in the negative. It was not alone a question of judicial honor, but of honor with an assured enjoyment of all that is necessary to main tain it through the remaining years of his life without, in the end, having the story of Chief Justice Waite's fifteen years on the bench repeated at his denth--that he died poorer than when he caine to Wash ington. A stated income of $30,000 a year woul not, it is said, more than enable Mr. Fuller to maintain his home in Washington as he would want to live. A personal friend of Mr. Fuller says that he believes he ws'ill accept the place and make whatever sacrifices may be neces sary to brinsL}g ;'i Je.1F i ?J :al and official income, but will leave the formal acceptance of the honor until the President is able to hand him the only evidence that would be acceptable, viz.- i his commission as Chief Justice. t Train Robbery in Ohio. MANsF1EJI, O., May 0.-A bold, but a bungling attempt to rob the Limited Ex press, No. 0, on the Baltimore and Ohio at about 1 o'clock this morning was frustrated by the train crew and passengers. At the hour named, the train being at this station, a man entered the smoking car, where most, of the passengers were dozing, and at tempted to snatch the watches of three of them in succession. lie had succeeded in obtaining one watch when the occupants of the car became aroused and the thief made a rush for the rear doocr, only to be met by Conductor Corwin, who, taking in the sit uation at a glance, dealt the scoundirel a tremendous blow over the head with his lantern, bringing him to the floor senseless. A corporal of Company 0, Fifth In fantry, who was conveying ani insane sol dier from Fort Keough, Mont., t.o the National Asylum, quickly p)roduLcedl a pair of handcuffs, and when the prostrate bandit. regained consciousness he found himself manacled and amnong a crowd of passeni gers, who talked excitedly otf the bell coird and the nearest telegraph pole. The thief begged piteously for Ils life, and after he had been searchedl and no weapons found on his person, and there being no policemman within call, the cr-owd yielded to the councils of Conductor CJor win. The rascal, after receivin g a severe thrashing, was allowed to go, and~ the train proceeded on its waly. Two companions of the scoun(drel, who were stationed on the side of the train opposite the depot, took to their heels on the first, alarm. The stolen watch was returned to its owner. Two Mteamera Collide. NORFOLK, Va., May 7.-The British steamer Benizon, Capt.

When the fog lifted abott an hour later, the Eureka was nowhere in sight, and it is feared she was stunk. After the collision there was the sound of escap ing steam and one whistle. The Benizon's bow was badly stove, and sne would have sunk but for her water light comlpart ments. The collision occurred 168 miles southeast of Cape Henlopen. Thue Benizon struck the Eureka square midship. The Eureka was a freight boat and carriedl no passengers. Her crewv, all told, numbers thirty eight persons.

Luck of a PrMpector Who Met a Dancing DervlrL of the Desert. "Out , Nevada," said Joseph Grandle tneyer, /n mining man from Whito Pine, to a NoW York Sun correspondent., " we have the sublimest dance that any man over saW. We call it the dance of the giants. i'eat cylinders of sand, from eight to twenty feet in diameter, and sometimes immensely tall, come careering across the desert with a whirling, waltzing motion that is very graceful. I have often seen them when they must have been two or three miles high, for their tops reached up into the clouds. But oftener thero will be one big column, with a lot of little columns attonding it, all waltzing along together. The effect is the strangest thing imagin able. It inspires you with awe, and at the same time ilils you with the desire to laugh at the odd performanco. And, if the man is superstitious, tIle weird, faitastic sight can make him feel mighty uncomfortablo. They are never seen except in the summer time, and are most frequent in July. They have their boginning in seine little, incip ient whirlwind, which snatches up a hand ful of sand while the surrounding air is still, and then they keep on growing and moving onward. "They are not like tho cyclones further east, for they move with very little noise, and, instead of being funnel-shaped, are of the same size fron top to bottom. Tho motion is the same, being both circular and advancing. Tiny draw up into the cyl ider fabulous quantities of sand, tons of sage brush, and sonetinies good-sized stones. Ilow far they travel nobody can tell. The very big ones must have waltzed along in their silent majesty over the lonely deserts for a long distance. They must travel the whole distatie of the White Pine valley, three hundred and tifty miles, and sometimes they comie down through Spring valley from Itlaho to the I'erannegat Valley. "Joe McCain, one of the pioneers of Whito Pine, solemnly declares that he owes his richest strike to one of these waltzing giants, lie was plodding along through the valley, leadiig a pack mule laden with his prospecting outilt, when half a dozen sand columns came dancing silently along. Joo tried to dodge one of them, andt got right in the way of the biggest one o' the wholo gang. It piciked lip him and the mule as though they were feat hers and packcd them across the valley in t he liveliest waltz .10c ever shook a leg in. lie got so dizzy that lie trinldi't tell where ho was going, and ie lout just miade up his mind to Ie simi it Itherd iii saund aml curried to Ileaven by this tlitiimg dervish of the desert, wn I is feet trunt solid ground, and after wthirlimig about a few tunes he fell into the bed of a creetk t Iit was almost dry. When he litcked hiii self up there was the mule kiciong soleminly ani met liodically at a shower of sant hat was falling ar"otiul him. The waltzing coluimni hail struck a side lill and tollapltsed. as they often do, and the upper part of the t"olumni was just com ing down.

Illinois Furnishes a Succesior to the La muented Uhlet Justice Waite. The new Chief Justice could scarcely have been anything but a lawyer. His father and his father's brothers wore lawyers. One of his grandfathers was a lawyer and a Judge of Probate. His mother's brother was a lawyer. His maternal grandfather was Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas of Middle District of Maine: and after the separation of Maine from Massachusetts was appointed one of the Judges of the Supreme Court of the State of Maine, and he afterwards became the Chief Justico of that Court. Nature gave Melville Weston Fuller a good start on the road to distinction in his profession. The choice of Mr. Cleveland for the highest place in his gift was born in Augusta, Maine, on Febuary 11, 1833. He received his collegiate education at Bowdoin, where ho was a classmate of Minister Phelps, and was graduated in 1853. Mr. Fuller pursued the study of law at Bangor, and also attended lectures at tho law dopartment of Harvard Uni versity. In 1855 he began to practice in his native city, but devoted himself chiefly to editorialduties. The following year ho was elected a member of the Augusta common council, and was made president of that body. In addition to this he was city solicitor, but he resigned both oflices, and went to Chicago. He at once establisiied a lucrative practice, and made a reputation as an able lawyer. At an early period he took an active part in politic. He worked hard in the Presidential campaign of 1856, support ing the Democratic candidate. Five years later he and "Long John" Went. worth were elected delegates to the State Constitutional Convention, where his legal abilities came into play, and he rendered a distinct service in the revision of the Constitution. In 1862 Mr. Fuller was sent to the Legislature from a usually Itepubliern stronghold. He has continued to be actively engaged in politieH, and was a delegate to the Nat ional Conventions for several years, tak ing part in those held in 1861, 1h72, 1876 and 1880. His record in the Legislature was one of efficient s.ervico. It was in 1863 that he was at Springlield, and he was the recognized leader of his party during those stormy days. Among the numet one public addresses which he do livored the oiie at Michigan tity in 1860, im welcoming Stephen A. )ouglas, is mentioned as especially noteworthy for its eloquence. lie it was, also, who de livered the address a year later when that celebrated statesman died. In the mean time he had been rising in his profession. H was notably connected with some celebratel cases before the State Supreme Court arising out of the proro gation of the Legislature by Governor Yates in that year. In 186h, when .1ishop Whiteliouse attempted to discip line the now Bishop Cheney before an ecclesiastical tribunal for leaving "rege nerate" out of the office of infant babtism, the offender was advised and defended all through the years of tedious litigation by N r. Fuller, who exhibited a profound research and knowledge of ecclesiastical law. The lieformed Episcopal Church, of Chicago, of which Cheney is Bishop, largely owes its existence to the prosoec tion thus instituted. Mr. Fuller has often aupeared before the Supreme Court of the United States, and his rep utation is that of a learned and sound E lawyer and a man of very superior culti vation anid aittaiinments. lie wais married in Chicago in 1858, but soon lost his wife. In 186G he was married a second time. Mrs. Fuller is ai little wonmn, blonde, with a symplathetic face, a winnng manner and( a ready tongue. She has live daughters and a little soni. The young ladies of the family are remarkable for their cultivation and originality. One of them attractedi a great dleal of attention two seasons ago] ini Washington. T1here is no docubt that they will lbe belles in the society of the Capit al. In perso nal appearance Mr. Funllor is unusully handsome; his hair and mnustchmo are silvery and his features clear-cut and intel ligenit. lie is slho rt in statur e and i of slight buil. H is membershin in the l)emocratic party hats been con~tinuous. While holing adlvaniced views of State rights, lhe was lo yal to the Union cause (luring the war. lie is ia member of the P rotestant Episcopal Church, and has been pronminently id1entified with that deno~mi nation.
