New York, March SO.—With a tremcn-lous thump tho French steamer Scotia went uchore off Fire Island yesterday morning. She was eleven days overdue, having left Mar. eilles on Feb. 20. Tho vessel had over 1,100 souls on boaril, most of whom were 1 tali nil immigrants w ho intend to settle in Iho western states. The steamer experienced unusually severe weather on the passage across, and much anxiety was felt by the friends in this city of the passengers on board. Philadelphia, March 80.—Tlie superb bison at the Zoological gardens, known as John L. Sul ivan, broko his neck yestei-day in a mad struggle for freedom. While wintering on Staten Island the Wild West show lost almost a dozen buffaloes, and as the time approached for the departure of the show for England Buffalo Bill began to look about the bisons. When lie heard that Sullivan and Old Pete, the big bull of the Zoological garden in this city, could lie bought, he closed a bargain at once. The show sails on Thursday next for Wndon, and Buck Taylor, Billy Bullock and Joe Eiquirol, the cowboys, with three big ponies, came over this morning from New York to laC«o the buffaloes. The cowboys succeeded in conquering OH Pete, and he was le.l with little difficulty between two horses to the stock yard of the Pennsylvania railroad in West Philadelphia. Sullivan hnd a bad record for ugliness, and the society was glad to get rid of him. The attempt was mnde to capture Sullivan. The buffaloes were driven under a shed, and Bnck Taylor, who was mounted on Chieftain, threw his noose, and missed. The buffaloes then made a break, led by Sullivan. Bullock flung his noose over the horns of Sullivan, but he quickly shook It off. Taylor's noose then shot through the air, and Sullivan come to a stand so suddenly as to almost lift Taylor off his horse. The bison then made a dash across the yard, and swung around a tree. While the other horsemen were hurrying to the assistance cf Taylor, Sullivan made a furious pitch, and brolfo the lariat. In an instant he rushed at Taylor, who made an attempt to turn his horse, but the bull swept down, and, with a wild toss of his bend, ripped open the right haunch of Chieftoiu with bis sharp horn. The bull made another plunge, but the crowd gave a cry of alarm in time for Taylor to pull his horse away. A gate was opened and Taylor gashed ahead of Sullivan and escaped. Billy Bullock then made a dash for Sullivan, and the bull was about to plant his horns into his horse, when the cowboys were told to come out of the yard and Sullivan was left master of the Hold. Dr. Huidekoper, dean of the veterinary school at the university, was in the crowd, and he was soon by the side of Buck Taylor's horse. The horn had opened an artery and torn muscles and flesh. A stream of blood poured from the wound. Dr. Huidekoper stuffed a handkerchief into the wound, and afterward filled It with oakum and had it bathed with cold water. Sioux C'itt, la., March 20.—The Haddock murder trial is the one topic of conversation in the city. Increasing popular interest in tho case was shown hi the court room when the introduction of evidence began. The largo court room was packed. Thirty or forty ladies were in attendance. Several of the ladies are wives or relatives of tho defendants.At the Jersey City Athletic club building Maurice Daly and William Sexton, the billiardiets, gave an exhibition before a large assemblage.

Va., March 20.—Frank Gray man, a young man of Lawrence county, Ohio, was visiting at Capertown, Fayette county, W. Vn. He, in company with John Scalers, a friend, and Mrs. Scalers, wont out for walk. Over some trivial matter a dispute arose in which Mrs. Scalers sided with G layman against her husband. The latter grew very angry, and declaring that his wife preferred Grayman to him drew a revolver and fired at Grayman. The first shot entered the left breast, causing Instant rleath. The people wore so excited over the affair that strong talk of lynching was indulged in and it was only by means of a strong guard that the authorities wore able to put Scalers in jail. Mrs. Scalors exonerates Grayman and says that ho was perfectly innocent of anything that would justify the net of her husband. A Dangerous Temper. It was a grizzly sight' when Haddock's rubber coat was held up before the jury. It was mud spattered, and there were the great, black stains from the minister's blood, and through the collar the two gaping holes of entrance nnd exit torn by tho murderous bullet. The cane and a peculiar weapon which the murdered minister carried wore also handed the jury. Tho weapon was a small, cast Iron wheel, to which n piece of rope was attached for a handle, evidently intended for self-defense.

Tbo steamship's signals of distress were wen by the patrol of the Bluo Point life saving station when she struck, and all hands at tho station were called out to render assistance. They could not send a boat into the heavy sen, but succeeded, after repeated attempts, in landing a life lino aboard of her. The vessel was beached by Capt. Ruffat, her commander, to save her from a more disastrous ftite, giving tho pasnoiigors tho unusual experience of being twico wrecked on one voyage. Wesley Hitcher testified that Dr. Haddock and Key. C. C. Turner came to his stable about V o'clock on the night of Aug. 3 last and got a buggy to go to Greenville, a suburb of Sioux City, a mite from tho stable, and that after they had gone a stranger came to the stable door and, standing outside in the dark, asked where the buggy and minister bad gone and when they would return.William Truex and M.

C. C. Turner was one of thrilling and pathetic Interest He told of driving from the stable to Dr. Haddock's home, where the latter put on a rubber coat and, as he started on the perilous fatal ride in the darkness, how his anxious wife said to the brother minister iu the buggy: "Bring him Back safe to me.'' The witness' face flushed at the memory of the scene. He controlled his feelings with d.fflculty, and many au eye in the audience was wet. The witness then recounted in detail the ride in the rain and darkness; how at Greenville Dr. Haddock got out and peered through the windows of the saloon ngaif.t which he was seeking evidence; how they returned and how thoj parted at his own gate, Dr. Haddock ditving the buggy back to tho stable. Wlien the life saving crow discovered the vessel she wan lying in the midst of a very high sea, which was sweeping bcr clear lore and aft. The liiglv northeasterly wind made work for the life savers impossible for a time, aiul as a result it was somo time after the discovery that the life apparatus was hauled to the beach. The gale increased in violence, and the steamship swung broadside on to tho shine and settled in tho sand. A heavy sea eti uek and stripped her of her rigging. The Scolia's crew commenced to handle the lifo Un«, but this work was retarded at every step by the throng of frantic steerage passengers c'.inging to the deck like a black cloud of flies.

The testimony of Thomas Jarvis and Jchn McGregor, livery stable employes was that Dr. Haddock returned at 10 o'clock and a few moments later started away, but immediately returned and asked "it anybody was laying for him," pointing to men standing just opposite on Water street- They said; "Take care of yourself." Ho replied: "I can do that," and started boldly out. They began unhitching the horse, and a few miuutea later heard a pistol shot. Rushing to the door, they were in time to see Haddock stagger forward and fall and recover, and then sink finally in the gntter at the side of the crossing. They ran to him, but though he tried to speak they could distinguish no word, and after a few gasps ho was dead. They saw ten or fifteen men ruiming away from the fatal spot, but knew none of them. I'iitbburo, March 38.—General Master Workman I'owderly has not sent his secrot circular calling for a special meeting at Hurrisburg to tho representatives of the 11,000 knights with headquarters in Pittsburg. The fact of Pittsburg being overlooked by Mr. Powderly is a matter of considerable comment to-day among the members of District Assembly 3. They cannot understand why the secret circular should bo sout to every other section of the stale except to Pittsburg. District Master Workman Cleorgo Dovey said that they would be represented at the Harrisburg meeting.  Overlooked by I'owderly. Liverpool, March 2ft—In the Liverpool grand national steeple chase, Mr. E. Jay's Gamecock, 154 pounds, was first, Baron 8chroedor's Savoyard, 153 pounds, second and Lord Wolverton's Johnny Long tail, 148 pounds, third. Sullivan had to be. captured, and Buck Taylor mounted to return to the attack, when Agent O'Donnell, of the Society to Prevent Cruelty to Animals, stopped him, saying that he would not allow the other horses to return to the yard, as Sullivan was a mad beast of wonderful power, and would kill them. New York, March 8ft.—No word has been received here by persons interested in the Dauntless to the effect that she has arrived or been sighted on the other side. The dispatch received in Boston reporting her arrival off Roche's point is not credited. "I don't want to break your laws," said Buck, "but we must take that buffalo, and I hope you won't object to us going iu on foot."

No objection was made and the cowboys wont to work. Taylor swung his noose around the big bull's neck and Esquirel threw his under the fore feet When it was drawn tight the cowboys thought they had their bufTalo. but Sullivan snapped the lariat and dashed around one side of the tree, while the cowboys ran the other way. They yelled for a rope, and "Weasel Bill" Loomis bravely ran into the arena with a thick rope. Esquirel, after several attempts, put the noose over the horns of Sullivan, and he madly plunged. Again he broke loose, and again was entangled by the horns and made fast. The cowboys had just left the yard, and were preparing to lash two horses together to take Sullivan to the train, when the bull grew fierce in his endeavors to free himself. With a wild plunge his fore feet caught the rope, and Sullivan dropned on his left shoulder blade. Back Taylor thought the toll was choking, and with Dr. Huidekoper and the other cowboys jumped into the buffalo yard. Tho noose around the neck was ;loose, but Sullivan was gasping his last breath. There was intense excitement, and the men began to blow into the nostrils of the fallen chanv pion. It was of no avail. Sullivan would not go to England; he was dead. The poor beast in his fight for liberty had broken his neck.  The Scotia is lying easily in the sand, but if heavy tvratlier sets in she will pound and may lm seriously damaged. She is leaking slightly. Tlio passengers are in a sorry plight. The ship is overcrowded on account of the accident to tho Burgundia, and tho voyage beiug tempestuous therp was much suffering among them. Tho wrecking steamer which went to tho rescue was unable to go alongside on account of tho position of the steamer, nnd the passengers had to bo taken off in small boats. Mo Apology from Sliafer. New York, March 24—President Greene, of tho Now York Press club, addressed a note to Ira Shufer on the 23d inst inviting him to apologias to the reporters of New York for insulting them during his defense of exalderman Cleary.
