WHO ARE LEAVING WASHINGTON.

"Washington, Feb. 28. Letters -from
Senator Quav cive the information that
though he has experienced some improve
ment, he is yet in exceedingly bad health,
nud his friends admit a strong probability
that he will not be able to actively engage
either m politics or legislation to any im
portant extent in the future. He is really
completely broken down, and should have
long ago abandoned the we.r and tear and
anxiety of public life. Mrs. Quay and her
daughter zre still here, and expect to await
the return of the Senator before leaving the
city.
JTo member of Congress, and no family of
a member of Congress -will be more missed
in their social circle than Hon. C. C Town
send, of Beaver, and his familr, who will
leave Jor their Pennsylvania home shortly
alter the close of the session. Mr. Townsend
and his family have been the liie and charm
of a household composed of public men and
their families at the Ellsmere, a family ho
tel composed of a combination of several of
the old historical houses on H street near
the Shoreham. One of the houses was once
the home of Senator Zach Chandler, of
Michigan, and was erected by him.
Glad to Get Away.
Mr. Townsend has no rezrets, however, in
retiring from Concress, where be has dis
covered that the chief duties of a Congress
man, as they now constituted, arc to act as
factotum for home pension attorneys, arid to
get offices for constituents. Senat6rCameron
will remain in 'Washington till after the
post-Lenten fashionable season is over and
will then retire for a time to his country
seat on the banks of the Susquehanna.
Jiepresentative Uayne and JUrs. isayne
expect to start on a .European tour as soon
as practicable after the adjournment of
Congress. They expect to spend most
of the fcummerin'Geneva, where Mrs. Smith,
Mrs. Bayne's mother, and a portion of her
family now are with thewife of Consul Eo
l.ind, J. Henemtck, the American repre
sentative at that place, being -a near rela
tive. It is probable that a good deal of the
time of Representative Dalzell will be
passed h:re during the var, as it is said
lie expects toon- to begin the erection of a
fine residence on a lot which he purchased
nearly a year ago on New Hampshire ave
nue, near Dupont Circlp.
DaizeH'g Great l'opularity.
Mr. Dalzell has made so high a reputa
tion ior ability and peculiar fitness as a. leg
islator, botn here, at home and in the nation
at large.rthat it is expected by everyone
thatiie will be compelled, whether he wants
to ornot.o become an exception to the ro
tatory precedent in Congressional elections
in Western Pennsylvania, and .remain con
tinually in the House, at least until he be
Elected to the Senate, for which body he is
generally spoken of as a certainty in the
cot distant future.
Either the uominating conventions or the
electious ot last year made almost a clean
sweep of the Representatives in the lower
branch of the Fifty-first Congress from
"Western Pennsylvania. Culberson, of
Erie; Townsend, of Beaver; Itay, of
Wavnesburg; Kerr, of Clearfield, and
Craig,, of Brook ville, were all de-
featrd for renomination. Scull and
Daizell arc the only Western
men re-elected, and the former got
in only by the skin of his teeth. Stone, of
"Warren, was elected to fill the vacancy oc
casioned by the death of Watson, and at the
same lime to succeed himself for a full term.
Bayne, alter a victorious renomination,
turned the office over to Hon. 'William A.
Stone, and thus there will be two Stones
from Pennsylvania in the next Congress.
Griswold':, Striking rijrure.
Of the new men from Western Pennsyl
vania none will have a more striking figure
than Griswold, of Erie, the wealthy manu
facturer of hollow-ware, who succeeded
Culbertson. Mr. Griswold has been here
lor a er days making himself familiar
with Congress aud Washington, and has
made friends at every turn. He is a large
man, 01 dignified and commanding mien,
with almost white beard, a shock of long,
almost white ha. r on his head and shaggy
eycbrovis, quite coal black, probably the
most remarkable combination ever seen,
and as pleasing as it is striking.
President and Mrs. Harrison have not yet
decided all the details of their Western
journey, hut in a few days more their plans
will be in such shape that something certain
will be settled. Mrs. Harrison's time was
pretty well taken up during the past week
with the daily receptions that she held for
the numbers of strangers, as well as for
many others brought to see her by friends.
Mrs. Itussell Harrison has been equally
occupied attending the sessions ot the
"World's Fair Board of Lady Manager- and
the business which has accumulated on her
hands in regard to it. Lightneb.
MANDEESON'S COSTLY 7
The Senator Sports a Fins Tim esents
!17,000 In Greenback.
rsrrciAi. telegram to rus Disr-ATcn.i
"Washington, Feb. 28. Senator Man
dcrson received a present the other day that
he shows with considerable pride. It is only
a paper hit, but it cost more, probably, than
any head gear ever before made. It is in
the shape of an ordinary silk hat, and looks
not unlike the white hats worn in summer
by the average well-dressed man about town,
It was made by one of his old soldiers,
a big, jolly German named Martin, who
stubs around "Washington on a peg leg and
makes a living by manufacturing greenback
statuary.
The hat for fjenator Manderson weighs 20
ounces rather too much for comfort on a
hot summer day. While a cowboy can
inest sometimes S3U to $33 in a huge
broart-brimrued hat, the Nebraska Senator
boasts thit hi thatch protector cost over
$17,000. The average value of the green
backs and bonds canceled and destroyed in
the macerating machines, at the Treasury
Department is estimated to be $SGi per
ounce, so that the 20 ounces of greenback
pulp in the Senator's hat at one time was
worth to Uncle Sam a sum sufficient to buv
hats for the whole Ohio brigade that Gen
eral Manderson commanded.
CIECTJIT COURTS OF APPEAL.
The BUI Creating Thein "ow Beady for the
President.
Washington. Feb. 28. The general
court bill, the conference report on which
was adopted to-day, is the bill introduced
by Senator Evarts and passed by the Sen
ate. It provides for the appointment in
each circuit of an additional Circuit Judge,
and creating in each circuit a Circuit Court
of Appeals, to consist of three judges, of
wli.u trf !! constitute a qnnriim. This
court shall have final jurisdiction in some
classes of cases, on which appeals are now
allowed to the United States Supreme Court.
A term of one of the several Circuit
Courts of Appeals is required to be held an
nually in Boston, New York. Philadelphia,
Itichmond. New Orleans, Cincinnati, Chi
cago, St, Louis and San Francisco, and
such other places as may be designated by
the Court
A SERIOUS SITUATION.
THE DEATH OF SENATOR HEAEST AND
ITS PBOBABLE EFFECT.
It Hay Force an Extra Session The Senate
in a Quandary Owing to the Adjourn
ment Custom Force BUI Ghost Bobs Up
Again.
tFKOM A STAFF COBRKSFONDENT.l
Washington, Feb. 28. The death of
Senator Hearst puts the Senate in even a
mote serious quandary than it was placed
by the death a few days ago of Senator
"Wilson, of Maryland. At that time the
Senate could ill spare a single hour of its
time, and now, to adjourn for a day, as is
the custom, on account of the death of a
Senator, would be almost equivalent to
forcing an extra session.
"When the Senate met this evening it was
with the intention of sitting far on into the
looming, then taking a brief recess, meeting
again and continuing in session until the
small hours of Monday morning. At this
writing the Senators who are managing
affairs do not know what course to pnrsne in
regard to the death of Senator Hearst, but
favor continuing in session for some
time to-riight, and then, as a mark
of respect, take a recess till
10 o'clock to-morrow. The ill that may re
sult from following this worn-out precedent
of fornal, but really hypocritical, mourning
for the death of a fellow-member was never
before so apparent, and It is probable that
the death of Wilson and Hearst, following
closely one upon the other in the closing
honrs of Concress, may result in some sensi
ble modification of a custom which all admit
has had its day.
The death of Hearst and "Wilson, both
Democrats, means a gain of four votes for
the Republicans, a gain, too, by the libera
tion of the pairs which held two Republi
cans silent in the absence of the two Demo
crats. This situation has revived the rumor
that the Republican? will yet, before the
close of the session, take up the elections
bill and force it to a pnssagr.
They now have the votes to do it. Senator
Quay.is the only Republican absent, and he
is paired, though possibly his pair wonld
assume that the arrangement would not
hold as regards the elections bill, as the pos
sibility of its revival was not contemplated
when the pair was made. Mr. Hearst will
be succeeded by a Republican, and this will
increase the Republican majority from 14 to
16 in the next Senate.
The places of neither Hearst nor "Wilson
will be filled in time to affect the present
situation. The Legislatures of both Cali
fornia and Maryland are in session, but in
the latter State there are half a dozen candi
dates, and a long fight is in prospect
AN EMPHATIC PEOTEST.
The Ilonso Records Its Opinion of the Ha
waiian Islands Cable Scheme.
Washington, Feb. 28. Mr. Hitt, of
Illinois, from th Committee on Foreign
Affairs, reported back to the House the
diplomatic and consular appropriation bill,
with a recommendation that all the Senate
amendments be agreed to, with the excep
tion of the amendment providing for a
cable between San Francisco and the Ha
waiian Islands.
Mr. McCreary, of Kentucky, vigorously
oDposedvthe proposition for a cable. The
House last night had defeated a proposition
to subsidize vessels crossing the seas. It
was now proposed to subsidize a company
constructing a cable under the seas. The
House ought to treat this proposition as it
had treated the colossal scheme yesterday.
The time had come when a halt must be
called, aud when the Government must
give equal privileges to all and exclusive
privileges to none.
The recommendations were concurred in
yeas, 222; nays, 0 the roll being called in
order to emphasize the opposition of the
House to the Hawaiian cable proposition.
Messrs. Hitt, Morrow and McCreary were
appointed conferees.
PUNISHMENT OF SOLDIERS.
The President Issnes an Order to the Army
on the Subject.
"Washington, Feb. 28. The President
to-day issued a general order to the army,
fixing a maximum limit foi the punishment
of enlisted men in time of peace for
all crimes and offenses within the
jurisdiction of courts m.trtul. The
regulations contemplate a uniform
degree of punishment througlioutthe service
and the inhibition of excessive sentences by
court martial. The severest penalty pre
scribed is ten yean' imprisonment, and this
"can be imposed, only in cases of
manslaughter and assault with intent
to kill. Tne greatest punishment for
desertion is imprisonment for five years,
which, however, may be imposed only for
desertion in the presence of an Indian out
break or other trouble, or when the act is
joined in by two or more soldiers in the exe
cution of a conspiracy. The maximum pun
ishment for ordinary cases of desertion is
two and a half years' imprisonment, with
one year added for each previous similar
offense. Deserters who surrender cannot be 1
imprisoned for a longer period than ten
months.
THE LNDECEAT AEBIVES.
Senator-Elect Kyle Learning the Ropes In
the Senate.
'FROM A STAFF CORRZSrONDBST.l
Washington, Feb. 28. Senator-elect
Kyle, of South Dakota, presented himself
at the Senate to-day and immediately pro
ceeded to enter upon the task of "learning
the ropes." Mr. Kyle brought with him a
letter of introduction from Judge Bartlett
Tripp, the leading Democrat of South
Dakota, and Senator Gorman of Maryland.
This was taken as an indication by the
Republican Senators that the ne,w
statesman from South Dakota intended to
affiliate with the Democrats. In fact. Sena
tor Gorman upon the arrival of Senator
elect Kyle, hunted up Captain Bassett, the
doorkeeper, and through him secured a seat
on the Democratic side of the Senate for the
South Dakotan.
At last accounts Mr. Kyle was playing a
game of "see-saw" between the two sides of
the Senate Chamber, and was undetermined
as to what he would do in the wav of parti
san action. It is believed, however, that he
will side with the Democrats.
TABLED IN THE SENATE.
The House substitute for the Shipping Bill
'Thus Disposed Of.
Washington, Feb. 28. The House
substitute for the Senate shipping bill was
laid before the Senate and read in full, after
which Mr. Frye moved for the appointment
of a conference committee.
This was resisted on both sides of the
Chamber by Messrs. Carlisle, Vest and lie
Pherson on the Democratic side,' and by
Messrs. Aldnch and Edmunds on the Re
publican side. All agreed, however, that
the House substitute should be printed and
should lie on the table for the present, and
that order was made.' Mr. Frye said he
would renew the motion to-morrow.
BLAIR MAT NOT GO.
He Has Mot Made Up Ills Mind About the
Chinese Mission.

Perhaps he will sot This is a new phase
ot a subject that has been gossiped about
for the last 24 hours, and the idea of non
acceptance comes from no less reliable source
than Senator Blair himself.
"I have nothing to say about my appoint
ment as Minister to China," said he, this
afternoon. "I may not go. The proffer was
a complete surprise to me, and I have not
as yet come to any definite conclusion.
Wheal do ny. ke up my mind it may be
adverse to remfjing myself and my family
to a country so far distant as China."
Friends of the Senator are, however, of
opinion that he will ultimately accept,
and this he is being urged to do by many
who think thefinancial consideration worthy
careful attention.

Missing and Grave Fears Entertained
The City or New York all Right-Extent
of the Dangerous Field.
rSrECIAI. TELKQKAM TO TUB DlSrATCR. f
New York, Feb. 28. When the War
ren Line freight steamship Iowa left Bos
ton for Liverpool on February 17,' naviga
tors did not suspect danger from ice. So
Captain Owens of the Iowa, to make a
shorter aud more economical voyage, steered
unconsciously right for the heart of the ice
region, and met with disaster. The Bed
Star Line steamship, from Antwerp brought
here to-day the news of the abandonment of
the Iowa about 290 miles east of Cape Race.
The Pennland sighted the Iowa at 11
o'clock last Sunday morning in a storm.
The oil steamship Chester was lying near
the Iowa, which was nearly on her beam
ends.
While the people on the Pennland were
looking at the Iowa, and wondering how
she kept afloat with her masts nearly
parallel with the surrace of the gently
pulsating sea, the Iowa's crew began crowd
ing into and lowering ber six life boats.
Receiving no answer from the Chester, the
Pennland, after lying to nearly an
hour, proceeded on her voyage. Her
Captain conjectured that the, Iowa had
struck an iceberg, but it is more likely that
she received her wound while forcing her
way throutrh the field of ice such as the
stately City of New York steamed far to the
south'to avoid on January 21 on her last
trip to Liverpool from this port. It was
probably the same immense field that con
fronted the steamship Chaelois, which got
here Tuesday. To clear it she steered eight
hours, or about 100 miles, to the south.
The Chester, may arrive here with the
crew of the Iowa to-morrow. The Iowa
carried a cargo valued at about $225,000. It
consisted in part of 422 head of cattle.
Two steamships which left the other side
before ice was reported are due here. They
are the America, a big brand new freighter
of the National Line and the Taormiua, a
passenger ship of the Hamburg-American
Line.
BEFOBMTNQ THE COMMISSION.
A New Order of Things Proposed In the
Civil Service Board.
Washington, Feb. 28. The House
Committee on Reform in the Civil Service
to-day agreed to report, though not unani
mously, a bill to provide for a single Civil
Service Commissioner, with two deputies,
in the place of the present triple-headed
commissi .n.' One of the deputies is to
act as chief examiner and the .other as
secretary of the commission. The Commis
sioner is to receive a salary of$6,000 per year,
the chief examiner $3,500, and the secretary
$2,500. Either one of the deputy commis
sioners may act as Commissioner durintr the
Commissioner's absence, and when so, is to
he of an opposite political party to that of
the Commissioner. Removals "for political
causes are prohibited.
The appointing omcer is required to select
for appointment one of the three names
certified to bim by the Commissioner, or in
case of refusal, his reasons therefore must
be approved by the Commissioner. Com
petitive examinations will not be required
for appointments to laborers' positiou.
IN FAV0B OF SILVEB
A Minority Report for the Passage of tlio
Free Coinage Bill.
Washington, Feb. 28. Representative
Bartine, of Nevada, in behalf of the minor
ity members of the House Coinage Commit
tee, to-day submitted a report in. favor of the
passage of the silver free coinage bill. The
report begins with an expression of regret
that the majority delayed a report so long
as to render it practically impossible for
the House to consider the bill during the
present Congress and declares that the mi
nority pressed continuously and urgently
for prompt and speedy action.. The minority,
the report says, have no doubt of the ability
of the United States to establish and main
tain the double standard, even without
European co-operation, and it is predicted
that if the United States adopted free silver
coinage, it would receive support from the
principal nations of the Old World.
In conclusion, the report admits the diffi
culty of forecasting the actual result of
financial legislation, but says that the com
plete restoration of silver will inure to
the best interests of the country.
THE NEWS IN CONGRESS.

tSrECIAB TXLeOXAM TO TITS DISFATCB.l ,
Ottawa, Feb. 28 The Conservatives
are not sending as much consolation out of
the elections by acclamations on Thursday
as they at first credited themselves with.
Joncas, one of the unopposed candidates
who has been returned to sit for Gaspe, has
repudiated his connection with the Con
servative party, and has telegraphed here
that he will support the Liberal side of the
Honse in the coming Parliament.
Two of the French Conservative Minis
ters will have a. hard time next Thursday.
Sir Adeiphe Carou was moved from Quebec
county to Bimousti, where there is a Lib
eral majority of over 300, and Sir Hector
Langevin is running in Eichelieu, which
was carried by the Conservatives by only 58
majority last time. Sir John Macdonald
himself is having a hard time in Kingston,
where Gunn, Liberal, and Edwards, Single
tax candidates are running against him. It
is generally admitted that Gunn, who came
within 17 of defeating Sir J(n last elec
tion, will get the seat. . '
The Liberals have issued a poster, stating
that the- following document has been
issued by the Canadian Pacific Bailway
Company, addressed to every foreman on the
line from Vancouver to Halifax :
Memo. From R. F. Phelps, E4U. Depart
ment. C P. Rv. Co., Farnbam, Que.
To Fobemen I have been ordered to see
every man In my department and find out how
he is going to vote, and send In a list ot tbeir
names, just bow tbey are going to vote and
where. I wish you to send me a list of
your men. If you find men that are
hound to vote against their own Interests by
voting apainst the Government, persuade tnem
if you can, but make no threats; and any man
refusing to fay how he will vote will be put
down as a Liberal. Let me have an answer
soon. Mind,.there must be up shuffling. An
swer must be positive one way or the other.
A high official of the Canadian Pacific
was seen relative to the document, aud he
denounced it as a forgery. No such docu
ment, he said, had been issued, and, as in
all elections, the men were left quite free to
vote as they thougbt best.
IHPOETANT TO THIS COUNTET.
Erastus Wiman Points Out the Significance
of the Contest.
Pbotidence, Feb. 28. Erastus Wiman
was the chief speaker this evening at the
banquet of the Commercial Club. The sub
ject was "The Struggle in Canada." Mr.
Wiman said, in substance: "The election
which will be held on Thursday next
throughout the British possessions in North
America is a struggle more important to the
United States than any other contest that
has ever taken place outside its own borders.
It is important because the question at
issue, for the first time in the history of the
Dominion, is, What shall hereafter be the
relations that shall exist between it and the
United States?
"For the past 15 years the policy which
has actuated the Tory Canadian Government
has been one of :commercial bellieerancy
toward the United States. The Liberals
have inscribed upon their banners the great
principle of unrestricted reciprocity with the
United States. The effect of the adoption of
this principle by a friendly government
would be to create a trade relation between
the two halves of the continent similar to'
that which now exists between the States of
the Union." .
A FORECAST OF THE BESTJLT.
It Gives the Conservatives Probably the
Narrow Majority of Nine.
Toronto, Feb. 28. The Evening Tele
gram to-day, as a result of special inquiries
by mail and telegraph in every constituency
in the Dominion, gives in a 12-column re
view the following forecast of the result of
the present contest: Conservative, 112; Lib
era, 103; net Government majority, 9.
After the election of 1887, in the first ses
sion of the Honse, the Government had 41,
and at the time of dissolution 51.
The Telegram concedes Kingston to Sir
John Macdonald and defeats Hon. John
Carling in London, and Hon. David Mills
(Liberal), in Bothwell. Laurier will cap
ture Richmond, and Wolfe and David, Mon
treal East for the Liberals. Ottawa is
given to the Conservatives. Other Liberal
gains arej found in the Quebec district,
which was found to be almost solid for
Laurier.

LATEST IN OVEBCOATS!
A New Garment That Is Affected, by Alt the
London Swells. ,,
CUT DDNLAP'S CABLE COMFAST.J
London, Feb.-28. It will be a matter of
great interest to anglophobists to know that
the correct thing in the wayof men's spring
overcoats is a very long and f loose single
breasted garment, which resembles' the
ulster that was at one time so popular, but
is made -without a belt, hood or cape.
The inexorable law of fashion, which
no self-respecting dude would dare to
contravene,.-says that the material must be
melton or shower-proof cloth and its color
drab or a snuff mixture. The coat some
what resembles the Newmarket, but it
has no pretension of fitting tightly to tbe
figure. Perhaps the quaintest thing about
it is the act that the lapels are very small,
and, as a would-be witty young man re
marked: "Your tailor ought to send a
microscope when he sent home your coat, if
you want to see yonr lapels."
These coats have supplanted theshort gar
ments that were so much affected by sports
men or rapid members of society. It must

HOT YET CASHIEBED.
The Gordon Cummins Scandal Case Is Under
Military Consideration.
IBT CABLE TO Till DISFATCU.t
London, Feb. 28. In the Gordon Cum
ming case the military aspect of the patter
has been much misrepresented. It is not
true that Sir William Cnmmine has been
cashiered. What is true is that his case is
under consideration. An army regulation
requires that officers should immediately re
port to their commander any matter involv
ing their personal honor. When the Don
caster business was made public, throngh
tbe tattle of ladies or gentlemen not directly
concerned, Sir William Cummins reported
what had happened at the house of Arthur
Wilson to his Colonel.
"When did this occur?" asked tbe Colonel.
On beintr told that it occurred in Sep
tember, several months before, he said the
delay in informing him was a serious
feature of tbe case. Sir William explained
that he had refrained from mentioning the
matter because the Prince of Wales had
imposed upon him an honorable under
standing of secresy, which had been violated
by other people, and into this inquiry was
being made.
BILL FOB SIGNED ABTICLES.
A Measure to Compel Editorial Writers to
Attach Their Names to Efforts.
fBT DCSLAP'S CABLE COMPANT.l
LONDON, Feb. 28. Henry John Atkin
son, who sits in the House of Commons as
tbe representative of Boston, in the Con
servative interest, may congratulate himself
on being regarded as the most moderu crank
which that august body has produced. He
has just introduced a bill which is to com
pel the writers of all editorial articles in
newspapers to sign what they write, and
further that the newspapers shall publish
these names so that tbe public may know
how much attention is due to the article by
reason of the standing of its author.
Of course the idea is not new. It has been
urged.here from the time the. newspaper
worm was young, out it has never found
favor, for where would the royal "we" be if
Jnr. .Harry bmiui had to give rortb the opin
ions of his paper' in his own name. The
tearing down of the veil which conceals the
journalistic Isis would be too great a shock
to be calmly regarded, and the universal
opinion is that, as in the past, no eflorts can
induce the change which it is sought to
uring aoout.
B1SMABCK FOB THE BEICH8TAO.
His Friends May Elect Him With or With
out Ills Consent.
Berlin, Feb. 28. Despite Prince Bis
marck's refusal to stand as a candidate for
the Beichstag for the Nineteenth district of
Hanover, Herr Schoof, a prominent Na
tional Liberal member of the Lower House
of the Prussian Diet, asks the electors to
return Prince Bismarck, declaring that he
will not refuse to serve now that there is a
prospect of a crisis in Germany's foreign
affairV It is stated that Herr Sboof has
prompted the Friedrichsruhe district com
mittee to make arrangements for the election
of Prince Bismarck.
The Borsen Courier, discussing the role
Prince Bismarck might play in the Beich
stag, says if it were not for his excessive am
bition he would be of the greatest service. If,
however, he should attempt to dominate the
House or lead an attack on tbe Govern
ment, his reputation would not hinder his
being treated as a partisan.
A PE0F0SED DRAMATIC SCHOOL

as Irving, Cosquehn, Salvini and others
upon ts desirability of establishing in
London a British dramatic school, similar

artists fail to see any way in which the
ideal British dramatic school might be
realized. ' ,

r0P8S0EBDTLEK FLEES TO A HOTEL
rSFKCIAI. TXLXOBAX TO TBI DISPATCH, t
'Defiance, Feb. 28. The excitement
over -the finding of the mutilated body of
John H. Moll has not abated. The opinion
is that Moll's death cannot be attributed to
anything else than -the scandal -in which
the names of "the. Superintendent of the
Public Schools and two of the lady teachers
are connected. Ten days ago, as heretofore
stated in The Dispatch, Prof.
C,' W. Bntier. Superintendent of
Public Schools and twp lady teachers
were suspended at their request by the
Board of 'Education, pending an' investi
gation. The charges against them were made
by Fred Bethge, a highly respected German
citizen. He said he had seen Prof. Butler
and the ladies in the superintendent's of
fice -at various times, and that they had
been guilty of gross misconduct. He
watched them through a trap-door. Bethge
told Janitors Max and Moll of his dis
covery. At tbe hearing thev corroborated Betbge's
statements. For tbeir defense Prof. Butler
and tbe ladies 'introduced evidence to sbow
they were not in the Superintendent's room
or at the school building at the time when
Bethge savs he witnessed the scene between
Butler and one of tbe women. The board
refused to enterUin the charge and rein
stated the professor and the teachers, at the
same time dismissing both Moll and Max
from the employ of tbe board.
The Death of Moll.
.The anair created a tremendous sensation,
the public taking sides. Prof. Butler has
been a resident of Defiance for ten years,
and is a good looking man, aged about 45
years. His reputation has been irreproach
able. .He is married, but has no children.
The ladies are attractive, and hitherto
scandal has never touched them. They come
from one ot the oldest families iu this part
of the State.
Moll was looked upon as the instigator of
the trouble, and on Tuesday night, after tbe
investigation, a moD ot masted men is said
to have been seen going toward the house he
lived in. Tbe next morning his dead body
was found on tbe railroad track. His throat
had been cnt. There is so mnch talk that
Prof. Butler and his wife have left tbeir
home 'and are boarding at the Crossby
Souse. The Coroner is investigating the
case.
'Moll was warned of the mob by his son
and advised to slip out of the house by way
of the rear door and go to the home of
Henry Oestricker, a friend of the eider
Moll. Oestricker lives about a mile away
and across the Wabash railway tracks.
Young Moll told his father to remain there
until he came for him. After he bad satified
himself that the danger was over, and the
son not returning, Moll, at the solicitation
of Oestricker and his wife, 'disrobed and
went to bed about 10 o'clock.
The Mystic Square of Letters.
Before retiring, however. Moll then wrote
on a piece of paper the following' letters in
Uerman capital letters, lorming a square,
which reads the same from all sides:
FIRST LINE BEADS ACROSS
G S M S G-
Second S 8 E S 8
Third M E M E M
Fonrth S S E S S
Fifth G S M S
He leit tbe piece of paper on the stand,
and when asked what was the meaning of
the letters he "aid that if it were pinned on
fife breast of a dying friend, be would be
sure of a nappy death. Aha remark was
considered strange at the time, and now that
be is dead it is thought that he had a pre
monition of what was to befall him or in
tended to commit suicide.
In the" meantime the masked men called
at Moll's house, one of his daughters an
swering to the knock at the door. The men,
about a dozen in number, were masked in
long rnbber coats with black cloths covering
the lower part of their face?. They in
quired for Moll, and' wre told he was not
at home. The girl was frightened, but her
nersonal fears were allayed by the ring
leader, who told her not to be alarmed;
that they didn't mean to do her any harm,
and that it was her father whom they were
after.
He Went Out Into tho Night.
About 2 o'clock Wednesday morning
Mrs. Oestricker was awakened by a nbise iu
the room occupied by Moll, and upon ex
amination they lound that Moll was up and
dressing, and when they asked him what he
intended doing, he said he was going home
to see bis family. The Oestrickers told bim
that he had better wait until morning, but
he said that .it was late, the streets being
quiet, and he was not afraid of being mo
lested. The family conld not prevail upon
him to remain, and a few minutes after 2
o'clock he left the house. Tbe family
watched him until he reached the Wabash
Hailroad tracks, when he started south.
This was the last seen of him alive,
and what transpired in the four hours
which intervened between that time and the
hour his wounded and mangled body was
found is not known. A short distance
south of where Moll turned into tbe rail
road track is a lumber yard, and it was
just beyond this that his body was found by
the tramp, who gave his name as James A.
Parker.
What a Tramp Knows of It
At the inquest held by Coroner Dr. J. D.
Westrick Parker testified that he was on his
way to G.irrett, Ind., and had slept all night
in the lumber vard out of the storm, and
had been awakened by the 6 o'clock
factory whistle blowing. He got up
and started down the railroad track "or
town, and had gone but a short distance
when he saw in the dim daybrcik tbe form
of a man crawling around. Parker, said he
thought tbe fellow was drunk, and called to
him. Not receiving any response he lighted
a match and stooped over to get a look at
him, and just at that moment the man fell
oyer dead.
Parker hastened to the nearest house,occu
pied by a family named Schmoker, and told
them that, a man had been killed down
there by the cars. Schmoker and his son
accompanied Parker back to the track,
where Schmoker. identified the remains as
those ot Moll. Drs. M. B. Stevens and
D. P. Aldrich were sent for. and when
they, arrived and pronouncod life ex
tlnetV the Coroner was sent for, and
alter he had viewed the remains
thev were conveyed to an undertaking es
tablishment An examination of .Moll's
wounds and injury " showed conclusively
that he bad been foully dealt with. There
was a gash on bjs tbroat two inches long and
deep enough to sever the trachea. There
were two stab wounds on the left side about
two inches below the left nipple. The
side of his head was .crushed aud both legs
ground into a mass up to the k'nees, an
engine having passed over him. Near by
was a single bladed pen-knife with a
wooden handle and a blade about three
inches long and ground down to a point,
then'ale resembling a dagger.
Nobody Knows the Knife.
Moll's family; nor any ol bis friends can
identify the knife, his sou Conrad swearing
positively that it did not belong to his
father. Little or no blood was found on
his clothing, even where the knife wounds
were in his. body. In each hand was
clutched some straw, evidently from a ma
nure pile, and as there' is nothing of tbe
kind in the vicinity the murder theory is
strengthened, hut the affair, is shrouded in
deepest mystery.
There is no one in tbe town who uapaat
l'of. Butlcrof hnvlngaiiy knowledst nboat I
thdj assault made upon Moll, if such was
made. The' evidence of Drs. Stevens and
Aldrich at the Coroner s inquest was to the
effect thit none of the wounds would cause
death, and it was their opinion that
Moll had suicided; Coroner -Westrick has
completed the hearing of all tbe evidence in
the case, bnt he has not yet made a verdict.
He said this evening that tbe more he
thought oyer the matter the more roe' ?ve
he became that Moll had been murcd,
and that he wonld not return a verdict un
til be had learned more of the affair, which
has created a greater sensation throughout
Northwestern Ohio than any crime that has
ever been committed.
FILLS AS WITNESSES.
A. Lawyer Adopts a Novel Plan to Disprove
a Polsonlujj Theory.
COLTTMBUS, O., Feb. 28. H. J. Booth,
one of the attorneys in the lawsuit now
ready for the jury, which was expected to
night to break the will ot the late Dr. Tan
S. Seltzer, adopted a strange but convincing
style of argument in making his closing
speech to.the jury last evening. Testimony
had been given to the effect that when Dr.
Seltzer was dying, pills of poison Were
given him to hasten bis death. It was de
sired by the party represented by Mr. Booth
and others to refute this.
So he bad a druggist prepare five pills by
the same formula as those taken by Dr.
Seltzer, and these he took in the presence of
the jnry .while making his argument,
adding to the dose one pill from the same
box as those tar-en by tbe doctor. He after
ward spoke to tbe jury for three hours, re
marking as he did so, that if the evidence,
on the other side were true he ought to be &
dead man.

THE AVAILABLE DEHOCDATIC TIMBEE
CnrciHNATi.Feb. 28. Senator Voorhees,
accompanied by his son, Mr. James Voor
hees, was in tbe city for a short while last
evening. The Senator was en route to Hot .
Springs, Ark., to get relief from rheuma
tism. Iu a running conversation with an
Enquirer reporter regarding matteVs"of "'
moment iu Congress, Senator Voorhees waa
asked:
"What will become of the silver coinage?
bill, which has passed the Senate and is now
pending in the House?"
"Nothing," was the prompt reply.
"Nothine. It is dead for the present,"
"What are your views with regard to the),
silver question?"
"Thirteen years ago," he said, squaring ,
himself about and throwing back his head, '
"I made a speech in tbe Senate advocating
the tree coinage of silver. Tbe galleries
were filled with people and there were scenes
then that 'have, I believe, never been
equaled in indorsement of my views, you
understand," and the fire siione in the great
orator's eyes as he recalled the event. "I j
have won two big campaigns on the silver
issue."
The Farmers of Indiana.
"The farmer element is a unit in a de
mand for free coinage of the silver?"
'If this claim that silver is not honest
money were made to a farmer in Indiana he
would pronounce tbe man making such a
claim either a fool or a liar," said Mr. Voor
hees with great vigor, "and I believe that
such a condition exists all over this great
country. Why, the Democrats of
Obio are pledged also to free
coinage. Tbey pledged themselves
at the convention which nominated
Mr. Campbell for Governor, and time and
again previously did they so pledge them
selves. There is a mistaken idea tbat the
people of tbe Bast are opposed to it. The
people of the East and I mean by the peo
ple the masses are for free coinage. Why,
sir, were I a New Yorker I could go among
the people of that great State and fsel confi
dent ot an election upon such a platform.
The money-bags tbe brokers are opposed,
but tbey will learn that they must not stand i
in the way of the people."
Cleveland Ha the Wrong Issue.
Senator Voorhees here remarked that ha
thougbt the great question of tails' reform
the most prominent, "but," he added, "X
think there is a keeuer interest in this ques-j
tion of free coinage of silver than in any
other of the great questions of the day. '
.Look at tbe way in wbicn ingails was wiped
out and you will find bis experience re
peated all over this country no doubt la
Ohio further along."
The conversation here turned upon tbe
letter of ex-President Cleveland in opposi
tion. Senator Voorhees was asked as to
his opinion regarding its effect upon Mr.
Cleveland's Presidental prospects.
"I have thegreatest respect for Mr. Cleve
land," he said, aftera moment's study, "but
it would be as difficult a matter to carry the
State of Indiana on a platform opposed to a
free coinage of silver as it wonld be to carry
that State or Ohio on tbe nullification prin
ciples of John C. Calhoun. I'bave told Mr. i
Cleveland that he was mistaken in his views,
acd tbat there would be free coinage of sil-'
ver long before and long alter he is dead."
Plenty of Men Besides Grover.
The Senator stated plainly that he did not
desire to place himself in the attitude of
criticising tbe stand taken by Mr.CIeveiand,
"bnt there are principles," he said, "that'
are undying principles to me, and no.hlng"'
will swerve me from the course I laid outi
for myself long ago and to which I have
given unalterable allegiance."
