Ascertaining that Miss Tennle C. Clalln and her
Bister, Mr, lirooker, were In town, and stopping
at the (.Uint.lnental, we last evening called upon the
ladles to obtain from them the true version of the
tale unfolded by the Princess Kdltha Ullbert Monte,,
relative to her navlug been swindled out of Jto.O'JO
worth of property by the firm of Mesdames Wood
hull At Claflln.of New York. As to the personal ap
pearance of Miss Tennle C. our readers are well
posted, therefore we will proceed to give our Im
pression of her sister.
MRfl. BROOK ER.
This lady is but a trifle older than Tennle, and yet
youwier than Mrs. Woodhull. In lijureshe Is ratner
stouter and better built than Tennle, although she
does not possess the lattcr's volubility. She is some
what sharp-featured, yet has a pleasing and attrac
tive countenance, Sne has dark blue eyes, brown
hair, combed in the feminine Btyle, and is about
years of aire. She is intelligent, sharp, and, unlike
Tennle, speaks directly to the point. Making known
the object of onr visit, both the ladles at once pro
ceeded to give us the outline of their first Interview
with the
J'HIKCESS EDITIIA (I)
The Princess, said they, first came to our office
about three weeks ago. entering in company with
several other ladies. She presented her card In an
nnnsual manner, but nothing was thought or the
matter as her personal appearance and dress awoke
the sympathies of the kind-hearted slHters. Her ap
parel was of the shabbiest. A much worn delaine
constituted her dress, and on the portion of her head
termed the cerebellum Bhe wore
A FIFTY CENT BOWKUY CHIONON.
The Clafilns pitied her, and advised her to take
from her head the unsightly appendage, asserting
that, if she did not, it would surely entail dUeaxe.
Mrs. Woodhull proposed that she should have her
back hair cropped short, which proposition was ac
cepted, and the "Princess" submitted to a tonsorial
operation. The Mesdames Claflln questioned her as
to ncr poverty, when, assuming a look of
VIKTUOrS INDIGNATION,
Bhe, striking her breast In the region of the heart,
replied, "I wish to save my mother's (Lola Montez's)
honor, to keep my virtue, and to get my mother's
crown jewels."
I.OLA MONTE Z rOISONED.
"My mother," said sse, "was poisoned by a Mr.
Buchanan, who now resides on Long Island, and who
has kept and now keeps her crown jewels."
JUST FROM ETJR0FK.
The 'Princess'' asserted that she had just arrived
from Europe, but in a few moments afterwards
contradicted herself by stating that some weeks
previously she had pawned her trunks in order to
pay her board bill. She stated that she was out of
money, and needed help. She further stated that
Hhe had been engaged by FIsk, Jr. (Jim Jubilee), to
play in the
"TW1LTE TEMPTATIONS J"
that she had gone to the theatre on the night pro-
Sosed, and was met by Jim (Colonel Jim), who took
er into one of the private boxes, ami after a little
while turned out the gas, and there left her; that
she found her way down stairs.
"Well, what became of her then?"
The ladies replied, "We do not know, but Captain
Jourdan asserts that she was arrested and locked
up in the station-house all night."
The ladies continued : "She stated that she had
Intended to play in the Twelve Temptation until she
acquired enough' money to start on a lecturing
tour."
GOOD ADVICE.
The Mesdames Claflin told her that such a course
of proceeding would ruin her for ever. They then
Bald that if Bhe deslrod to make her mark us a lec-
turess she should at once proceed to prepare a lec
ture upon
HER MOTHER'S WRONGS,
and that they would see that she was properly
brought before the public, stating that If she suc
ceeded it would be the "making of her."
They then furnished her with a complete new out
fit. "Since men," saiu ine lacues, "we nave ascer
tained that the clothes she wore had been famished
her four months previously, by Miss Matilda Heron.'
A FLUENT TALKER.
We inquired as to how It was they adopted her
suggestion about lecturing.
"Oh," said the ladies, "she was so fluent, so appa
rently intelligent, and so graceful, that we thought
Bhe must succeed ; ana men again, we were anxious
to lend a helping liana to one or our sex.
visit no. 2.
Three days afterwards she returned and stated
that her mother, Lola, nad been berriended by a
Count, who resided in Wrashtngton. Said Count had
also on a later period expressed much feeling for
herself could she but see this Count (!)she knew
she could obtain an advance of means from him.
She did not, however, desire to visit Washington
until she had procured some tine gartueuts and a
little cash.
SUE GETS HELP.
Mrs. Woodhull furnished her with aconiplete out
lit and gave her $40 in cash, to go on her journey.
AN INTERRUPTION.
At this juncture Mrs. Brooker said to ns, "Mind
you, 1 did not favor this movement, because 1 had
set the woman down as a Nancy Sykes, as a fraud,
and as a confidence woman."
Tennle C. then remarked that It was not the first
time that people had been sold, and since men had
been sold by men, it was not wonderful that women
should be dupeu oy a woman.
We acquiesced, saying that from the numerous
examples afforded us, we did not wonder at 1U
THB PRINCESS VISITS WASHINGTON.
"Well, to continue," said the ladies, "she went to
Washington and put up at Willard's. Having no bag
taire thev asked that she should pay her board in
advance, when she replied "I am one or the hum of
Woodhull A Claflln.' The hotel parties knowing
better than this, answered 'Oh no; that's not so,'
whereupon she modi led her statement, by Bay lug
that she was 'connected with the firm.' I'pon this
Bhe was given a room.
TELEGRAPHING EXTRAORDINARY.
"Next day," said Tennle C, "I received some seven
or eight despatches, one after the other, calling me
to W asmngton, stating mat sne naa met with ex
ceeding good luck, etc. etc. I consulted with Mrs,
Woodhull, and determining to pass by Philadelphia,
where I nau intended spending a lew days, 1 pro-
ceeued to wasnington.
A NICE LITTLE GAME.
"Arriving there at 6 o'clock A. M., I was met by the
Princess,' who introduced me to Mr. winard, a
centleman 1 had known for some time, savins.
'didn't 1 tell you she was coning?' I have since
ascertained that being pressed for her board bill she
had promised that 1 would be on Immediately;
hence the despatches so urgent.
HIGH JINKS.
"I soon found," said Tennle C, "that she had
been carrving on a great game, or as some would
gyle It, 'High Jinks.' 1 found that the whole, or
nearly the whole, of the 40 furnished her bad been
paid on one bunuay to ooys to precede uer to

A LITTLE PLAIN TALK.
"Learning this much," said Tennle C, I at once
contrived that she should leave Washington, lest
she should ruin our credit and our name, and ac
cordingly, by strategy, I forced her to leave, only to
leave an unpaid notei duioijio.
WHERE IS THE PRINCESS ?
"After Bhe had left the boys were loud In their calls
for the 'Princess.' saving that she bad paid them
one dollar apiece for shouting 'Lo, the Princess 1'
and they wanted more similar employment."
A BIO CONTRACT.
On returning to New York, the "Princess" visited

and ordering the bill to be sent there. Miss Tennie
C meantime had advised the firm to have nothing
further to do with her. A messenger oelng sent
from the Herald to Inquire about the "Princess," It
was found that she wai' a fraud.
Kven after this she called on the firm to assist her,
and in order to aid her In the lecture proposed tuey
paid bills amounting to some taoo for her, thinking
that If she succeeded they would regain their cash

THE LECTURE.
Of the lecture nothing need be said; that It proved
an entire failure all well know. Alter it the

greatest attention was paid her, she registering her-

rioally the time came around for her to pay her
Vxiard. when she referred to W. as. C. Of course she
was sgaln exposed and forced to seek shelter else
wnere. i;veu after all these indignities theClanins
agreed to procure her work and to pay for her sup

returning with a small box, showed to a couple of
gentlemen a lot of
PASTE JEWELRY.
The gents jocularly remarked that she might give
them some of the diamonds, at which she took great
urobrnge. In the opinion of the Mesdames Claflln
the "Princess ' is insane. TO us insanity is evident
somewhere.
MURDER IN THE TWELFJTH WARD.
A Neuro Shot at Fifth and Brown Streets A
Woutnn Id the Trouble.
last night there was a dancing party at the hall
on ISrowu street, below Fourth, In which a number
ot colored people participated. Among those who

their own men but great numbers of the men from
Mchnviklll. j'rlces have remained steady thus far,
but there is a downward tendency. The' demand In
this vlcitilly has been goon, and orders hve bH;n
supplied from the New Yora ports. In the New York
market tne demand nns not. neen so good, orders
have fallen off somewhat, and coal is being accumu

the men of that place voted to stick to their terms.
The men are determined, to hold out, and the com

must be made on both sides before work can be re

What is known as the basis anniversary was cele
brated In Wilkesbarre during the week, with a grand
procession and mnss meeting, The occasion Is the
anniversary of the day when the coal operators In
that region acceded to the demands of the miners
and allowed them to resume work arter a not very
lengthy suspension, upon a basis for the price of
lnluing coal to be governed above a Dxed sum bv
the fluctuations or tne eastern markets, whence ne
demand fur coal came. Tnere were about four thou
sand men In line. At the mass meeting speeches
were made by several of the notorious working-
men's champions. The affair, for a wonder, and
greatly to the credit of the men taking part, wound
up witnont the popular lames demonstrations
