A DARE HORSE FROM SOUTH CAROLINA. It is generally believed that the President will not appoint a successor to Justlce Woods until shortly Itefore the October term of the Supreme Court. It Is conceded that the appointment will go to a Southern man, though not necessarily to a man living in the fifth circuit. The friends of exRepresentatives Hammond and Tucker, Judge Wills, and Judge semmes have been working pretty hard tor their respective candidates, and are hopefuL But there is a pretty good chance that the appointment will go to a man not yet named. The appointment may go to Judge Slinonlon, circuit Judge of South Carolina.

A Representative from Georgia, who is earnestly supporting Mr. Hammond, said to a star reporter that there no candidate from the South now in the field, that in- knew ot, whom he considered a dangerous rival to Mr. Hammond. If Judgesimonton's name should be presented, however, he said, he would be a formidable rival for any man in the South, siniouton is not a candidate for the place, but The Stak's Informant said that he was by all odds the ablest Judge lu the South, and from ills position and service lie was Just in the line of promotion, and could, if he desired it, get the strongest support, not only in his own state, but throughout the South. The Killing uf Lieut.

Clarke. nis father as a vision of wounds ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR A SUICIDE. Henry W. Clarke, of Newport, R. will request the secretary of the Navy to Investigate the shooting of Lieut.

Arthur 1L Clarke, of the U. S. Marine Corps, with the view of ascertaining if his death was by suicide, as rejKirted, or by murder, as Mr. Clarke believes. A Newport special to the New York Tribunr says: Mr.

Clarke is thoroughly convinced that his son was murdered, and relates two dreams as ground for his belief. A few days before his son death he had a presentiment that two deaths were about to occur in his family. A few days later his wife's mother died, and while they were attending her funeral his son's death occurred at Panama. Mr. Clarke was disinclined to believe that his son had committed suicide, and determined that he had taken an overdoseof some opiate to produce sleep, because of nervousness Incident.

to rnglit caused by a recent fall. Such was his conjecture until that night he had another vision, in wldch he saw a man follow his son till the lat ter entered the room on the ship, when he saw hlin fire two shots and saw his son fall dead to the lloor. soon afterward Mr. Clarke received a letter from Paymaster Peterson giving particulars of his shin's death, which coincided with Mr.Clarke's vision, in that the death was by shooting and occurred In a room on shipboard, and differing only in the vital point of the person ho fired the shots. Mr.

Clarke believes fully in his dream, substantiated as it is by past experiences, and considers the fact that his sou went below so soon after going on deck to smoke, and went, not to his own room, but to that of another officer named Wood, as detailed in one letter received from the ship, a suspicious circumstance. His theory Is that the person who committed the deed, whose features he saw In his dream, but did not know, told Clarke when he went on deck that Wood wanted to see him in his room, and this person then followed bim, shot him as he entered the rooiu, and escaped to another part of the ship Ulfore the alarm had spread. Mr. Clarke's belief in murder rather than suicide is strengthened by the fact that two shots were tired, one at the head and one at the heart, which medical experts in the recent Burton murder case in this city declared could scarcely be done by the person receiving the wounds. In view of these circumstances, Mr.

Clarke will ask secretary Whitney to order an Investigation of the matter. The Burton trial, which everybody at first pronounced suicide, resulted in sending two daughters of the dead man and the husband of one to Slate's prison for life. Mr. Clarke Is principal of the coddington School in this city. Ella Wheeler Wilcox's baby boy died JuBt twelve hours after its birth, at Meriden, Friday evening.

The mother Is very low, though the doctors give hope that she will recover. DECORATING THE SOLDIERS The Veterans' Tribute to the Memory of Dead. Comrades. SCENES AT THE CEMETERIES. Exercises Held To-day by the Grand Army of the at Arlington, the Soldiers' Hoiue, and Congrenional Cemeteries.

Decoration day dawned bright and cool and the members of the Grand Army, who had been engaged In the preparations for the annual observance of the day dedicated to the memory of their comrades, heartily welcomed the fine weather. Yesterday was spent by the committees I In gathering from the churches the Cowers which had been brought there by the children of the Sabbath schools as their tribute to the patriotic dead. The monuments of soldiers and sailors throughout the city were tastefully decorated with llowers and wreaths, and amid this wealth of the spring's abundance were draped the national colors. To-day was observed as a general holiday throughout the city. All of the public buildings and most of the stores and business places were closed, and the city wore a holiday appearance, a large number of people took advantage aIness of the early morning hours, and Willi their lunch baskets sought pleasant places country to spend the day.

Others Joined the excursions by river and rail, ami were not with the dead yet they enjoyed the rest and recreation or the holiday. A large number visited the different cemeteries, where, under the direction of the Grand Army, appropriate exercises were held in connection with the decoration of the graves. The THE BRILLIANT MILITARY ESCORT OF THE GRAND ARMY POSra TO ARLINGTON. The headquarters of the Grand Army Posts, on the Avenue, opposite Wlllard's, presented a busy scene this morning as the members of the different posts assembled for the purpose of marching to Arlington. The line of march was announced to be formed at 10 o'clock, but long before that hour the Grand Army men began to gather, and then the military companies, with their brilliant uniforms aud bands, which were to torm the escort for the Vetera us, came marching to the rendezvous.

The wide roadway was soon nearly blocked with the military companies, but the mounted aides of the two marshals of tlie divisions galloped about and brought order out of confusion. The Grand Army Po.iis have perhaps never had such a large and brilliant military escort as they had to-day. There was the tirst division, which was composed of the companies now in camp in this city In connection with the National Drill. These troops were ifl command of Brig. Gen.

It Is made that a tribute could be given to the fidelity, loyalty and heroism of our departed comrades, and It. was not Intended that It should reflect In any way on those who were our enemies In war and who in peace are our friends. To-day the farmer leaves his tields, the his shop, the merchant his storehouse, the banker his counter, and all public business is suspended, that an may be given to do honor to the heroic dead. We fought the war for the Union, and we felt then that those who stood against us would be the sharers or our victory, and now they rejoice at the results." Here he quoted from a speech by Hon. Wm Il-oo, of est Virginia, delivered in the House of Representatives March, ls.su, to show that the people ot the South accept with good faith the results of the war.

Theorator read the order establishing the memorial day, and then paid a high tribute to the late Gen. John A. Logan, wh promulgated it. He closed with an eloquent preolctionof tuture ulory and prosperity for the whoie country. Don.

C. iTf. AiKliTkun'n Oration. Mr. Matson was followed by ex-Represeutatlve C.

M. Anderson, of Ohio, who learned his story of the war as a soldier carrying a musket. He said in closing his oration, after reviewing the causes! sufferings and results of the war; "The Union Army prosecuted war and battled not for conquest, not to humiliate, not for but ror peace, constitutional supremacy a'nd goon govrenment. Nor was the cause it the nlon Army sectional in its character, ror it battled not tor the North alone, but lor North and South alike. It may be asserted for a truth that tUO PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH gained more by the success of the Union Army than they would have had In the triumph of their own.

The Lnlon Army battled that our country might be kept on the map of the world and our in licftvciij it buttled for popular government Indissolubility of our uuion of States, and lor the liberty of man. Those who were our enemies are now our brethren; the foe then is friend now. The duty of all, North and south alike, is to encourage trade and commerce between the sections; establish a close? and better relatiou with each other; to forget hatred and animosities among our people; cover the past with charitvpreserve the rruits ot the war as a common heritage tor posterity, and to Imbue the rising generation to adorn the temple of liberty with a better educated citizenship, possessed oi higher morals and nobler manhood: Then come with vour flowers and garlands, with all their fragrance and rreshness of spring, and bedeck and adorn the graves of these heroic dead. Bring on your choicest offerings and lay upon the biers ingratitude for the services, sacrin.es and lives, they gave that you might enjoy the privileges and blessings of such a glorious country Some of them died In the valley and the wild roses to-day bedeck their graves; some fell on the hillside and the wild vines and arbutus entwine a garland over their last resting place; many are burled in a grave they gave all they had, llie, and even name, that THIS COUNTRY MIGUT UVK, for they loved it better ban their own lives. Are those men who speak to all the lovers of liberty uuder the sun, and with a universal language? Are they dead, who move society to patriotism and love of country? it he is dead to the family, he lives to the whole Union.

It he is dead to brother and sister, he lives to every generous youth In the land. These headstones dotting the national or tins country are punctuation points in the volume or patriotism. These little mounds under which our doad soldiers lie sleeping speak to the living for perpetuity of the country for which they died. Years only add sacn-dness to the names of those who die for liberty and truth. Shall they be forgotten? Not until the hills are worn away, fintil the springs forget to gush, and the rills to sing.

Their names and deeds are a rich heritage to jjosierlty, and they will be forever kept alive In the hearts of the patriotic people. "I cannot conclude this short address in a way more appropriate than by reciting a couplet from the pen of the gifted patriot and poet, CoL John A.Joyce: 'Let summer send her jrofclen sunbeams down In Krceful for the Anil autumn's niovinjf Lost or leaflets brown.

Howard, of Post No. 10. The cemetery was early thronged by many men, women, and children bearing baskets, hampers, and boquetsof rare and tM'autllul flowers, which they strewed with loving hands upon the craves of the dead. The air was full or the fragrance of the flowers aud overall rested an air of the most complete and quiet. During the services He ut tie children plav ed upon the grass under the trees and mingled their melodious voices with the sweet chirping of the birds.

REMARKS OK COMMANDER HOWARD. The assembly was called to order about 10 o'clock by Commander Howard in a few appropriate remarks. He said that nowhere in he land is It more fitting to assemble for the purpose of paying tribute to the memory of those who died that the nation might live than here at the nation's capital. Mr. Howard paid an eloquent tribute to the memory of Gen.

Logan, one of the tlrst chosen commanders-ln-cldef of Uie Grand Army of the Republic, and said that It was he who introduced here In Washington this custom of assembling on the day of May, 'he end of the typical month of flowers, to commemorate the valorous lives and heroic deaths of the soldiers by strewing flowers above their graven. At the conclusion of the opening address Uie chorus of ladles sang the requiem "Sleep, Soldier, Sleep," in beautiful style, and made the eyes, of many of the old soldiers present grew dim with the memories of nast, called up by the song. liev. J. D.

Wilson. chaplain of Post 10, then delivered the Invocation.

HILL'S ORATION. CoL R. F. Hill, of Post 79, department of Mlehlgan, who was the orator of the day, was then Introdueed to the audience by commander Howard. The orator likened the present occasion to the beautiful legend of "Sandalnbon, the of Saiidalpnou, the of pruxer." who stands at the outermost gate of the city celestial, listening breathlessly to sounds that ascend from the earth.

"This day, this hour; ave, this very moment," said the "throughout the length and breadth of our re-united country, the harmony of song and prayer wafted as one universal harmony of song aud prayer to Heaven's eternal camping ground, typided by the flowers brought with loving hands." He spoke ot the part which Is left to be played by the survivors or the war, and said: "In the language of our past commander-in-chief. In his general orders, nineteen years ago, aud over whose new made grave to-day, for the tlrst time, are strewn the floral offerings of memorial day, in the eloquent wonts of Logan, 'If other eyes grow dull, aud other hands slack, and other hearts cold in the solemn trust, ours shall keep tt wedso long as light and warmth of life remain to CoL Hill ended his address with a few remarks upon the Grand Army of the Republic.
