The outcome in the House to-day will be awaited with interest. SPECIAL TELECIIAJI TO TUX DISPATCH "Washington, September 14. The re vised edition of "King Bob" Kennedy's speech attacking the Senate in general and Matthew Stanley Quay in particular ap peared in to-day's issue of the Congressional Jleccrd. The Ohio Congressman took every precaution to prevent any advance warning of its publication. Instead of handing his manuscript to the official reporters while the Honse was in session, and when some one would have surely seen him, he slipped Quietly into the reporters' rooms down stairs and dropped the speech into a copy basket without saying a word to anybody. The appearance of the manuscript, it is understood, indicates that Mr. Kennedy has lost none of the "nerve" which enabled him to deliver his speech in the first inslance. The speech, as it appears in the Govern ment's official publication ot the proceed ings ot Congress, differs from tbe speech as originallv delivered in tbe elimination of certain passages which, it has been asserted, were contrary to parliamentary- rules and usages. Ziardlr Irss Heicc In Tone j.ne revisca speecn is naraiy less severe man as originally aeuverea, Dut it is (be lieved by the Congressmen from Ohio to be now in conformity with the rules ft the House governing criticisms in defcee of the other branch of the legislature. Tbe first part of the speech, which was dcoted to the official election bill, is unchangr L. Coming down to the attack -jn Senator Quay a change is made in the v xt referring to the high character aud standijg of "Web ster, Clay, Fessenden and "Wade. Then, after declaring that Ohio ban twice within a decade been disgraced by Senators chosen "simply because they were able to outbid other contestants," there is this sentence: "Surely the cloak of Senatorial courtesv has been used to hide the infamy and the corruption which has dishonored and dis graced a body which was once the proudest in the land." Tlio Monch ffcm to llato Vanished. Tnis is the only reference to the "cloak of Senatorial courtesy," all that partdcclaring that Senatorial courtesy had become a stench in the nostrils of the people and a cloak to cover up infamies being omitted. The onlv changes made so far as Senator Quay is concerned consist in the erasure of the word "criminal" where it occurs in the two places, and the omission of all mention of Senator Quay by name. "Where it was suggested in the original speech that Judas, when he hanged himself, had left "An example for the Matt Quays that it is well worthy of their imitation," there is substituted therefor the following: "An example well worthy of imitation." The Brnnded Crlmlnnl Not in It. The sentence: "The Republican party cannot afford to follow the lead of a branded criminal" is struck out altogether, and later on where it was said: "He stands a convicted criminal before the bar of public omnion," a change is made so as to read: "He stands convicted before the bar of public opinion." It now remains to be seen whether the Pennsylvania delegation in the House will concur with Mr. Kennedy in the decision that these changes bring the speech within the rules. The events of to-morrow's session in this connection will be awaited with con siderable interest. It U learned that there is much truth in the statement recently made that Mr. Clark son will soon succeed Senator Quay as Chairman of the National Republican Com mittee. President Harrison is quite willing to have Mr. Quay retire, and he said to a member of the House the day before he went to Cresson that he was not at all pleased at Senator Quay's silence under the charges that have been made against him in the newspapers and repeated with such force in the House by Representative Kennedy. Harrison Anxious for on Amwc". Tbe President said that he does not wish to have Mr. Quay retire under fire, but he would very much like to have him reply to Kennedy and then resign the chairmanship to make way for Mr. Clarkson. It is said that Senator Quay is preparing a reply to Kennedy's speech, and that it is in the line of a vindication of himself. Whether it proves to be a satisfactory vindication or not, his enemies III probably continue their efforts to force him from the National Ittmmutee. i come to the front Since he was placed in charge of the work of the Congressional Campaign Committee over the head of Mr. Beldin, the estimable Chairman, tbe work has been fairly humming. The surprising result in Maine and the retirement of so many Democrats in the Sonth by the Farm ers' Alliance has, strangely enough, come to be looked npon a a feather in the cap of the Bepublican Congressional Committee, and its real head, Mr. Clarkson, is regarded as the Republican hero of the hour. TARIFF BILL PROSPECTS. STILL DIFFICULTY IN SECURING A HOUSE QUORUM. Tbe Democrats Anxlons to Secure Time to Debate tbo Kcviked Measure McKlnloy Opposed to Reciprocity, bat May Con ent hi a CompramUo Men-are rFBOM A STATF COBUESPOXDEKT. 1 "Washington, September 14. From all the information that can be gained about the arrival of the members to-day, it does not seem probable that a quorum of tbe House will be in their seats to-morrow. Very few of the absent ones have come in to-day, and unless there is an unlooked-for number of arrivals to-night and to-morrow morning, another day will pass without any progress being made. Some of the minority members of the Committee nn "Ways and Means have been seen by members of the majority in regard to the time to be spent in debate on the tariff bill before that measure is sent to a confer ence committee, but no conclusion has been reached. The minority of course want more time than the majority are willing to give. A Compromise on Time Probable. They would like to have a week or so, but it is probable a compromise will be made on tbe basis of a day or two at most. The majority are of the opinion that all that is necessary to say can be said in one day, with an evening session, and it is just possible they may insist on concluding the debate in that time, but tbe disposition of many Re publicans outside of the committee is to be quite liberal, as this is the last chance the Democrats will have at the tariff bill for some time. Nearly everybody would like to consume bis five minutes touching some portion ot the bill, and many of the leaders ot both sides expect to occupy much more time than that by inducing members who are not anxious to speak to give them their time. A good deal of curiosity is manifested to know what course Mr. McKinley will take in regard to the reciprocitv amendment. He has said to friends that he has not changed his opinion since he referred to the subject in bis speech on the tariff bill before it was passed by the House, and in that speech, he used the following language: McKinley'a Opinion of Reciprocity. That same condition bas been true as to every agreement of reciprocity we have ever had with any nation of the world. "We have been beaten in every instancq. From 1851 to 1E6G IS years of reciprocity with Canada we boaght of them twice as ranch as they bought of us. "What these other countries want Is a free and open market in tbe United States. "What wo want, if we hare reciprocity, must be reciprocity with equality, reciprocity that shall be fair, reciprocity that shall be just, reciprocity that shall give us our share in the trade or arrange ment that we make with the other nations of the world. Whenever we have tried recipro citv or low duties we have always been the loser. But I leavo reciprocity to tbe illustrious man who presides over the State Department under this administration, and to mr distin guished friend, the Chairman of tbe Committee on Foreicn Affairs, Mr. Hitt. This is a domes tic bill it Is not a foreign bill. It is believed, however, that Mr. McKin ley will not oppose the small experiment in reciprocity that wilt tin .made unner tbe operation .pf-tha Senate amendment, in case South American Republics Ira "agreeable, whieh is vastly different from tbe sort of rec iprocity advocated by Secretary Blaine. HARDSHIPS OF SPECIAL AGENTS Who Collided the Statistic! Concerning Farms, Homos and llloitgngps. rFEOM A STAIT COKKXSrONDEST.: "Washington. September 14. Few peo ple realize the hardships and inconveniences and sometimes real danger to which persons engaged in the collection of the census statistics have been exposed in tbe prosecu tion of their work in all the different com munities scattered over the extent of this continent. Thrown in with all classes of people, traveling through all sorts of inac cessible places by rail, stage, on horseback and on foot, it is not surprising that these special agents should have encountered many varied experiences. The full record of difficulties overcome and duty performed under all kinds of adverse circumstances will never be told. But now and then reports come in from them to the office here in "Washington which serve to give some little idea of the nature of their work and rob it of many of the at tractive features it was fondly supposed to possess. Thrilling stories of narrow es capes from blood and fire and others of a more pathetic nature could be told by tbe special agents who were sent into every one of the 2,800 counties in tbe United States to collect the statistics ot farms, homes and mortgages. The field work of this special branch of investigation has been nearly concluded. WANT TO BUY A NEWSPAPER Clarkson and Alger teeklng to Farchase a New York Journal. rsTECIAX.

It is understood that Mr. Clarkson has hiseye on a New York newspaper, and if satisfactory negotiations can be made it will be purchased with money furnished by General Alger, and be under the control of Mr. Clarkson, with Marshall Cashing, the private secretary of Postmaster General Wanamaker, as man aging editor.

NO DUTY ON EtECTBICITY. Panper Canadian Cnrrcnts Likely to Blast the Fntnre of Niagara Foil. ISPECIAL TELEGBAX TO THE DISPATCH. "Washington, September 14. The fact has just come to the knowledge of some in terested persons that tbe tariff bill, as passed by the House and amended by the Senate, makes no provisson for a duty on electricity. In the opinion of a constituent of one of the New York Senators, this is a grave mistake, and one that ought to be rectified before it is too late. This American citizen writes that it is the pauper electricity of Canada that threatens the American current. The writer thereupon makes a tearfnl appeal for a duty of 55per horse power upon all elec tric currents imported over the border. The business firm which the gentleman is casting is the project that has been dis cussed at various times for several years, to utilize the power of Niagara Falls for tbe production of electric currents to be dis tributed on a large scale to the industrial establishments of New York State. Three years ago the Treasury Department decided that electricity is not dutiable under the present law, so there is no reason why the miserable current from the Canadian side of the falls should not come sneak ing over and compete with the pure American product to tbe utter disaster of the latter. As the Senator's cor respondent points out, therefore, the ?5 horsepower duty is absolutely necessary for the future of Niagara Falls, which must be protected as other infant industries are. Unfortunately the request lor the much desired amendment comes too late for in sertion in this year's bill. Perhaps it will win some other year. EULOGIES ON SUNDAY. A Congressional Proposal Which is In Lin With Koed's Speech. ISPECIAL TELEGBAM TO TUB DISPATCH, i '"Washington-, September 14. In the speech which Speaker Heed made at Port land at the opening of tbe campaign that sent him. back to Congress with a plu rality of nearly 5,000, he announced his opposition to the continuance of the Congressional system of giving up cer tain days to the delivery of eulogies of dead statesmen. He pointed out that- already during the present session 21 days have been consumed in fujieral oratory and inti mated' that this was not fair to the taxpayers. Certain Democrats in the House at once at tempted to turn these remarks of the Speaker into campaign' thunder, but were promptly prevented by their wiser colleagues, who see plainly that men of both parties are about ready to pronounce against the further continuance of iuneral orations in the House and Senate on business days. As now .conducted, the proceedings on eulogy days are a farce. A large majority of the statesmen take a day off on this occasion. Thev do not go near the Capitol. and only those attend who feel absolutely compelled to listen to the speeches, which, for the most part, are of a stilted and per functory character. There are seldom any spectators in the galleries to listen to the eulogies, as it is not often that any thing worth listening to is said. The snggestion.oi hereafter having all eulogies delivered on the Sabbath day meets with much favor, and it is not unlikely that a resolution will soon be introduced in each House looking to the proposed change. THE ANTI-IOrrEEY BILL Will Probably be Called Up In the Sennta Daring the Day. ' "Washington, September14. It is ex pectedthat Senator Sanders will conciude his speech npon the conference report of the land grant forfeiture bill to-morrow, and then the report will be agreed to. If it is then not too late in the dav Senator Sawyer will call up the anti-lottery bill, which bas already passed tbe House. Otherwise he will ask the Senate to dispose of private pension bills on the calendar, postponing the anti-lottery bill until Tuesday. So far as known there will be no opposi tion to the passage of this bill. Senator" Gibson, of Louisiana, will speak in its favor, and if any opposition develops on the floor Senators Spooner and Casey, the latter of North Dakota, will support the measure. dui it is senator -sawyer s nope that uHb sou's speech will be the oalv one delivered. Following the anti-lottery bill on the order ot business adopted by the Bepublican cau cus are the bills to repeal the timber cnlture act, to establish private land courts, and lor the relief of the Supreme Court and the labor bills. It is hardly probable that all these will be disposed of this week. WORLD'S FAIR SCHEMES. PROPOSALS TO SHOW THE DEVELOP MENT OF THE MINING INDUSTRY. Opposition to the Dnnl bite Demands for an Extensive Live Stock Exhibit Commis sioners Expicss Their Opinions on Dif ferent Fcntnres. Chicago, September 14. Cdmmissinner McDonald did not hesitate this evening to give evidence of his dissatisfaction about accepting the dual site proposition. He says: "I am not alone by any means in my op position to the proposition. The sentiment of all commissioners from agricultural States is in accord with mine. In fact, it is almost universal with the full board, al though they have not yet spoken, but they will speak. I do not believe that the com mission will adopt this dual site unless it is presented to them in such a modified form as to fully convince them that a great por tion of the exhibition will be in Jackson Park. This can be done by stipulating that the exhibits placed at the Lake Front will not be of sufficient consequence to attract the visitors lrom the main portion of the ex hibition." Commissioner Mercer, of "Wyoming, says: "I am opposed unequivocally to adual site; give me a single site anywhere. The con venience for travel will cet around in time. Boom and drainage are first considerations. The live stock interests of the country de mand suitable grounds and ample space for themselves, and not isolated from ihe main exhibits of all other industries. Commissioner McDonald has introduced the following, which is to be acted upon by the General Commission, now in session: Chicago, September 11, 1690. To the Committee on Permanent Organization: Gentlemen The sub-committee on mines and mining have the honor to report: Recog nizing the fact that tbe mineral deposits of tbe country are one 01 ine greatest sources 01 its wealth and their development one of most ex tensive and important of industries, yonr com mittee earnestly recommends the estaollsbnient of a separate department in a separate build ing to be called tbe Department of Mines and Mining. Also that in extending to foreicn governments an invitation to participate in ex position they be especially requested to furnish a complete display of their mineral resources, topether with tbe methods and machinery used in tboir mines. This ex hibition should inclndo a collection of all known minerals and precious stones, and all forms of stone used for building or ornamental purposes. Near the building devoted to this purpose could be arranged models ot Some of the more famous mines of this and other countries. A miniature mountain might be erected to show the geological formation ot mineral lands, and the several processes of .re ducing ores to metal could bo shown by Intro ducing miniature smelters on the ground.

The Elot in Switzerland Was a Terj Insignificant Affair, GEEMAK POOE KEEDAHBEIOAN PQBK. A Strong reeling Agiiait the Schemes. Imperiil Colonintua The German public isbecoming indifferent to Prince Bismarck, and the young Emperor is growing in popularity. Some of the ex Cbancellor's enemies are now accusing him of financial irregularities. Their charges in this line have not been proved, however. TBT PUHLAP'S CABLE COMPAXT.l Berlin, September 14. It is evident that the Bismarckian controversy is grad ually fading before the growing indifference of the general public Some little time ago publicity was given to the fact that the late Einperor "William was seriously annoyed at hearing that Prussian soldiers in the cam paign of 1870 were dubbed Bismarckians. Prince Bismarck has found it necessary to publish his account of this incident. It ap pears that cuttings from the newspapers used to be laid before the late Emperor "William by the police, and, according to Bismarck's theory, the persons who selected these cuttings endeavored to influence the Emperor-King by the selections they made. In one of these excised articles a state ment appeared that tbe King's troops were addressed as Bismarckians. The article was a design to act upon His Majesty's well known sensitiveness upon this point. The object was temporarily gained, but the at tempt did not produce a lasting impression on the old Emperor's noble nature. This explanation is published with a view to showing the sort of weapons Prince Bis marck's enemies had recourse to then as now. The enmity toward Bismarck ap pears generally to keep step with the.daily growing popularity of tbe young Emperor, and this week another petty annoyance has been inflicted npon him. In some of the lower grade popular organs he is now ac cused of having converted to his own use tbe resources of the first Bismarckian fund, known as the Otto Pence, which was placed at his disposal for distribution among poor school teachers who by some patriotic act might have merited such recognition. I have mado diligent inquiries into this matter, but have not succeeded in unravel ing one single case in which it could be shown that Bismarck had used the fund for any other purpose than that for which it was dedicated. Perhaps the publication of this statement may help toward clearing up the mysfery in which some Berlin papers have enshrouded this particular question. The fate of Bismarck's interviewers appear toibe as bad as that which overtook the jurymen in the Guitean trial. M. Abranyi has be come insane, T)r. Simon, of New York, has committed suicide, and Editor Bittershaus, an old American journalist, has Deen dis missed from the editorship of the Frankfort Journal. THE; CAN HOC? Needed to Furnish Food for th Poorer Cluneal of Germany. TBT DDNLAT'S CABLE COMPANY. Bebltn, September 14. The reappear ance of the hunger typhus in Upper Silesia is regarded as the last straw to break the protection camel's back, inasmuch as it is admitted that the high tariff on corn and the exclusion of foreign meat products are the principal causes of the calamity. How the poor suffer from these protective meas ures may be gathered from the fact that pork in Upper Silesia to-day costs three times as much as it did before Prince Bis marck began waging his war on the Amer ican pig. The. duty placed on the corn yield ia 1881 was 16,000,000 marks, whereas it is estimated that the amount which will be derived from that sonrce this year will reach 100,000 marks. Moreover, while the nnmbers of our poor fall victims to the high tariff and pro tection, others seek in ever-increasing num bers the means of sustenance in foreign ports. Since the above period 1,448,111 Germans have emigrated to America. This year the emigration has largely increased, especially from Saxony. The exodus is in some parts due to an anticipation of the evil that may be wrought by tho McKinley tariff bill. Fresh heartrending reports of the poverty prevalent in Upper Silesia crowd in upon us. Here are two examples: At the Austrian Silesian frontier town of Mysloejitz the weavers, who are in a great state of destitution, have run a line over the river Promeza, to which is fastened a bag on a pulley to carry over into Prussian ter ritory small quantities of flour, the price of this necessary of life being SO plennings per three kilogrammes in unprotected Austria, and 85 pfennings in the adjacent territory of Prussia, whicn is Duruened or blest with a high tariff.. Another report shows that at Benthen the police have had to drive a number of poor families ont of underground lodging forming a sort of earth cavities which were uol more than six feet deep and about the same in circumference.

'1 1 r 'COLONIES A FBAUD. That la the General Opinion Thronshont the German Empire. tBT SUXLAF'S CABLE COMPANT.l Beklin, September 14. The colonial fever ia Germany for some time past has been gradually abating, but.liasjustbeen re vived through the personal influence of Ma jor Von Wissmann. After the failure of the Colonial Society to place their last Ewt African loan, many of the former friends of the scheme withdrew their names and abandoned ail interest in the project. Now, howeYer.Wissmann on the one hand and Pe ters on the other, have given the movement a fresh impetus by traveling through differ ent parts of the Empire, making speeches full of promise and patriotic sentiment, and calling upon the public for money and ships. By their exertions and pleasing de meanor they have made many friends and admirers, and these through sheer personal influence have been induced to sign for sums amounting to between 70,000 and 100, 000 marks toward the fleet for the African interior seas. The great mass of the German people have treated this colonization bnsiness as a fraud for the last two years. Major Von Wissmann arrived here from-his provin cial tour on Friday night, and confronted by these objections he states that he does not ask for a whole fleet, that one steamer only is wanted for the Victoria Nyanza, and that even that vessel is sot required for trading purposes, butto hunt down slave dhows. He states that the amount sub scribed for this vessel up to the present is 80,000 marks. Toward this amount the Emperor has given 3, 000 marks. In spite of the imperial support the movement is de cidedly still unpopular with the general public. THE FEARFUL FLOOD. Reccdinc Waters To rj I.iktlr to be Fol lowed by nn Epidemic. BY DUNLAP'S CABLE COMPANY.!" Beblin, September 14. The recent ter rible floods which were admitted to be in part the consequence of a false economic svstero which shrinks from undertaking any decisive measures for the regulation of the German water ways, will bring the question of State insurance against loss by inunda tions once more on the tapis. The Govern ment of Saxony, whose subjects have lost some 15,000,000 marks by the floods, will probably take the lead in the insurance question, though no later than last year the same Government declined to have anything to do with the project. It is the repetition of the old story of locking the stable door after the steed is gone. Tbe inundations in Austria, Saxony, Silesia and Switzerland have, however, done some good. At least tbe friends of cre mation say so, and they are a very numer ous body in this city. At Prague.Jamong other places, the crematories, were two metres under water for more than a week and an epidemic is feared in consequence, as the retreating waters have run into the reservoirs which supply drinking water to the inhabitants.

Tbe body of Captain Ericsson was landed from the United States warship Baltimore at 2 o'clock this afternoon. The transfer was made with much ceremony.

Politicians Pi oDnrlna; for the Coming Sjruc- gle la Huntingdon County. ISrECIAL TXXXOBAU TO THE DISPATCH.: Huntingdon, September 14. The question of license or no license will be the leading element in the local election in this county in November. Since the defeat of Associate Judge McCarthy at the Bepub lican nominating convention, his Prohibi tion friends throughout the county have been importuning him to run as an inde pendent anti-license candidate, but he is as yet undecided. Simeon "Wright, the Be publican nominee, was smoked out of his silence on the license question this week, and declares that he will administer the laws as he finds them on the statute books, and not intrude his persdhal belicra or in clinations against tbe law s requirements. This statement has greatly aroused tbe J temperance advocates, and strong measures are forming to put an independent anti license candidate in the field. As it is now, both the Bepublican and Democratic nomi nees for Associate Judge would sustain the action ot Judge Purst in granting license in this county.

ROBEET BAY HAMILTON DE0VY5ED While Attempting: to Ford a Stream in tha lellowstone Park, HIS WIPE HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED Of tie End W&ica Hi3 Orertaba Him While She is in a Prison Cell. Bobcrt Bay Hamilton was drowned in the wild "West three weeks ago. The news has just reached civilization. His wife has not even yet been informed of his somewhat mysterious fate. 1SPICIAL TILEGRAJf TO TUX DISPATCH.! Helena, September 14. Bobert Bar Hamilton, whose trouble with bis wife, Evangeline, and the tatter's sentence to prison on the charge of attempting to kill her nurse, was the talk" ol the country a year ago, was accidentallr killed three or fonr weeks ago, and yet, so effectually bad he hidden himself and his disgrace from the world, that no one besides the acquaintance who found his body was aware of his fate until to-day. About six weeks ago Hamilton came "West and purchased a ranch on Snake river, in Idaho, on the road into the Yellowstone National Park. His object was to make it an outfitting point for park tourists who went into the national pleasure ground by the Union Pacific About three weeks ago Mr. J. A. Green, of the Western Union Tel egraph Company, set out to go into the park. TT( rnrnf Vpit nvpr thn TTtah ftnrl TTnrThrn Voad, leaving the railroad at Beaver Canyon V"i bit found that Hamilton was not at r TTnt,!trtn'e annla rt,I tfle. Hamilton's neODle told the New "Yorker that Hamilton had gone ont lonr or five davs before on a hunt with a horse and dog. Next day Mr. Green started out to Iook for Hamilton, making up a party for the purpose. On August 23, about 30 miles from the ranch, while riding along the Snake river, Green noticed a large tree whose branches touched the water. Going closer he saw the body of Hamilton partially hidden by the overhanging branches, Hia watch had stopped at 9 o'clock, and from its appear ance the body had been in the water fonr or five days. Mr. Green recognized Hamilton immedi ately, having known him quite well inNeer Yorfc. Besides there were found in the dead man's pocket letters from his attorney rela ting (o the divorce proceedings against Mrs. Hamilton, and other papers concerning tbe winding up of his business affairs in the East. Mr. Green had the body taken to the ranch and notified Hamilton's relations. Then he continued his journey to the park. evidently an accident. After his trip to tbe park Mr. Green re turned to Helena and told the above story of Hamilton's drowning. He said the un fortunate man was evidently drowned while fording the river a few miles above where the body was found. His dog and horse were discovered, the latter with the saddle on, quietly grazing. Mr. Green w3s very much surprised on arriving iu Helena to find that the public knew nothing yet about Hamilton's fate. A special telegram from Trenton, N. J., says: It took long and vigorous pulling at the big doorbell of the New Jersey State Prison at midnight to attract the attention of tbe guards who were on duty in the big rotunda. "When they did come it was soma minutes before Keeper Patterson could be induced to leave his bed. He refused to al low Mrs. Hamilton to be seen at this hour, or to communicate the fact of her husband's death to her. He states that he saw the fair prisoner early in the evening, and that she was well and much concerned about her divorce suit, and made inquiry of the keeper if he knew where Bay Hamilton could be fonnd, that she could communicate with him. The rea son given for not communicating with her was that it was hard to reach her cell, and to enter the woman's wing at such a late hour meant confusion. GOING INTO POLITICS AGAIN. Mr. Hamilton left for the "West about the middle of last June. His intention was to remain there until the middle of November, when his suit was to come to trial in the special term of the Supreme Court At the same time he expected to re-enter politics in the Eleventh district It was said by a representative of his lawyers, Boot and Clark, that tbe suit will be continued, de spite Mr, Hamilton's dcatb, as tbe disposi tion of his large property will be affected by the resnlt of it Bobert Bay Hamilton was born in this city on March 18, 1850. He was the son of General Schuyler Hamilton, a grandson of Alexander Hamilton. After graduating from Columbia College and the Columbia Law School, he began the practice of law. He was elected to the Assembly in 1881 as a Bepublican from the Eleventh district, and was re-elected in 1886, 1887 and 1888. Mr. Hamilton spent much of his time in travel ing both in this country and abroad. He was a member of tbe Union League Club, tbe University Club and tbe Tuxedo Club. About the first of July, 1889, Mr. Hamil ton hired rooms in the Noll cottage at At lantic City. He was accompanied by a blonde woman of middle age, a nurse, and an 8-months-old baby. On August 28 there was a quarrel between Hamilton's companion, then known variously as Eva Mann and Mrs. Hamilton, and the nurse, Mary Ann Donnelly. The nurse was seri ously wounded in the abdomen by Mrs. Hamilton's ivory handled dagger, and Mrs. Hamilton was arraigned and sentenced for two years. In the meantime it was dis covered that the babe was a foundling who had been imposed upon Mr. Hamilton. STEALING FOE THREE YEARS.
