hero state that Ramiasatra, together with his brother, who is supposed to have instigated . the massacre, have been executed on the spot where the wholesale killing took place tinder the cruel Governor's directions. The cause of Ramiasatra' s sanguinary conduct originated in the tact that he tiercel? resented a petition flora the populace addressed to the government asking protection from bis repeated acts of cruelty. This so enraged the Governor that he commenced to slaughter men, women and children, and continued so doing for. several days. In many cases the agonies of the victims were protracted by the Governor causing their limbs to be gradually dismembered, their heads to be slowly sawed oil' and by subjecting them to other acts of torture. During the course of the massacre many of the women who were put to death were tirst outraged. In the case of all the victims their bodies were thrown to the dogs. In addition to these atrocities the survivors were compelled to erect atrophy composed of the heads of the murdered people upon a spot near the scene of the butchery. The fury of the populace was aroused to such an extent by Kamiasatra's inhuman conduct that the government of Madagascar was compelled to take notice of the Governor's bloodtbirstiness and promised to investigate the whole afiair and to punish the offenders if they were found to be guilty. This, thanks to the moral pressure brought to bear on the government bv foreign residents, has actually been done and Governor Ramiasatra and his equally ferocious brother have met the fate which they richly deserved. TIMOTHY UEALVS INJURIES.

He May Be Confined to His Room for a Month. An Atrocious Assault The Cork Trials. London, March 24. Mr. Timothy D, Healy, who was assaulted yesterday in the city of Cork in the dressing-room of the Victoria Hotel by Mr. O'Brien Dalton, when interviewed upon the subject to-day, eaid: "I was oflering my hand in friendly greeting to Mr. Dalton, when he rushed in upon me and hit mo a terrific blow in the face, smashing my spectacles and forcing some of the broken glass into my face. The injury to my right eye causes intense pain. No, I shall not prosecute him. I freely forgive him, for he has done good work for his country. Besides, he is going to be tried by the government." The injury done to Mr. Healy's right eye by the blow he received from Mr. Dalton last night is of a more serious nature than at first supposed. Mr. Healy is confined to his bed, and his physicians say that there is a prospect that he will remain in his room for a month to come. The trial of Michael O'Brien Dalton and the other persons who are charged with rioting At the time of the trial at Tipperary of Messrs. John Dillon and William O'Brien and a nnmberof others on a charge of conspiracy, for which offense Messrs. Dillon and O'tlrien were convicted, and they are now serving their sentences, opened in Cork to-day. Besides the charge of rioting made against them the accused are also charged with having assaulted Col. Caddell. who was in command of the police at Tipperary at the time of the trial. The transfer, yesterday, of Dillon and O'Brien from tbe Galway jail to the jail at Cork is believed to have been connected with this case, as both these gentlemen will be called upon to give evidence in the pending trial, tbe rioting having occurred prior to their departure from Ireland during the progress of the conspiracy trial. Among the other witnesses summoned is Mr. John Morley. the well-known English member of the House of Commons, who was present at the time of the trouble and who would have undoubtedly been badly injured by aconstable, who aimed a blow with his baton at him, had not the blow been warded oil by Mr. John Connor. Mr. Alfred Illingworth, who is also an English member of Parliament, will also testify. Mr. Carson, in stating the case for the crown, argued that the riot was a preconceived one, and that it had been got up for political purposes, He declared that the presence of Mr. Morley at the time of the riot was due to party aims. After the adjournment of tbe trial to-day Mr. Morley was permitted to have a private interview with Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien in the jail The Times to-day says that Mr. Parnell having announced that he had sent his application for the "Chiltern Hundreds" to Mr. Nolan, Mr. Haley has sent his application to Sir Thomas Lsmonde for simultaneous presentation with that of Mr. Parnell. The Times adds: "A contest in Cork must follow unless Mr. Parnell tries to escape by pleading some flaw in the proceedure of his opponent. If he decides to tight, it is the plain duty of the Unionists to join in the coming battle. The Conservatives should, therefore, start a candidate, for in the division of their foes lies the Unionists' opportunity." The Tories and Unionists of Sligo finally resolved to-night not to take part in the coming election in that division. Their decision was received by the McCarthyites with loud cheers. The Parnell leadership committee of Dublin has announced that Mr. Parnell will not resign until Mr. Healy has sought a re-election. . In a speech at Sligo. to-day, Mr. Parnell redicted strife between Mr. Healy and r. Sexton for tbe leadership of the McCarthy party. In regard to Maurice Healy, Mr. Parnell said that that individual had lied at tfe first sight of steel. He [ Parnell] was' ready to fight the seceders, but he would not allow the Healys to make a deal with the Cork Tories, and, by combining with them, show that the voice of rebel Cork was different from what it was in 1880. SOLDIERS AND SOCIALISM. German Army Officers Working to Suppress the Spirit of Insubordination. Berlin, March 21. Our army officers like nothing tetter than to enlarge on the spirit of insubordination alleged to be rampant in the rank and file of English forces, and they pooh-poch the idea that anything of the kind could exist among theinown men. It is, nevertheless, notorious that our army is largely impregnated with socialism. It has been deemed necessary of late to search all barracks for socialistic literature at stated intervals, and over 250 men are a, the present time imprisoned indifferent fortresses for being found in possession of tabooed books and journals. The newspapers are prohibited from publishing these acts, but their existence can easily be proved. I heard to-day from a Berlin merchant that his son. a sub-lieutenant of infantry, stationed at Osuabrurek. was recently sentenced to fifteen years' incarceration for having in bis library at the barracks works of Lasallo, Marx and Lebet. the contents of which he waa in the habit of discussing with a chosen few of his comrades. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. One Hundred Evicted Scotch Crofters Take Possession of Their Former Homes. Edinburgh, March 24. Dispatches received here from Stornaway state that during last night a band of about one hundred crofters of Lewis island, tbe northernmost and largest island of the outer Hebrides off the west coast of Scotland, of which group Stornaway is capital, marched from one point of the island to the other, crossing on their march Three Locks, arriving this morning at Orissay Park forest, from which they bad been evicted in order to make room for a deer preserve. The crofters, upon their arrival at tho forest, intrenched themselves in the ruins which represented their former homes, the buildings having been torn down by tbe proprietor of the land. They have formed a camp and have announced that they intend to cultivate the land formerly held by them and that they are prepared to resist by force any attempt that may be made to oust them from the land they have taken possession of. Not Satisfactory to Nicaragua, Panama, March 21. Respecting the Nicaragua interoceanio canal the Opinion Nationale, of Leon, the largest city in the republic, contained an article on Feb. 14 from which the following extracts are made: The bill presented in the United States Senate by Senior Sherman contains conditions which we believe cannot be accepted by Nicaragua, since they are contradictory to rights ceded in the Cardenas-Menocal canal contract of April 24, 1887. and restrict the action of the republic. The bill mentioned, implied, at least, accepts that the Zeledon-Menocal contract has been energetically rejected by Nicaragua, and recog-

nized by the Congress of the United States on Feb. 10, 1889. It has already been said.

but it is as well to repeat, that the legal coexistence of these two contracts is impossible, and, based on this fact, the government of Nicaragua has issued protests and rejected the Zeledon-Menocal contract on various occasions, and refuses to permit it being observed by the company." Postmaster-General Halites' Scheme. London. March 24. Postmaster-general Raikes, in speaking of his recent action in forbidding the establishment of a corps of messenger boys in this city by private parties, told a reporter, who interviewed him to-day, that if he had allowed the district messenger companies to carry out their proposed plans they would seriously infringe on the monopoly of the postal service, as they would soon steal the most profitable part of the postal business, namely: the delivery of short-distance letters. The Postmaster-general imparted the information that he was engaged in the work of maturing a gigantic scheme for a night and day messenger call and telephone service combined, and that this scheme was far beyond the dreams or the capacity of the companies which had hoped to establish a system similar to the one he proposed. Libel on Hawaii's Queen. San Francisco. March 24. Theo. H. Davies. of Honolulu, guardian of Princess Kaiulani, who was recently proclaimed successor to the Hawaiian throne, has made a statement in reference to the telegrams which have appeared in tbe papers of this country, to the effect that Queen Liliuikalani was desirous of setting aside Kaiulani's succession in favor of an illegitimate son of her own. He characterizes the report as purely invention, inasmuch as Kaiulani has been appointed successor by the unanimous decision of Queen Liltuikalani and tbe House of Nobles, and says the imputation is a cruel and unfounded scandal against the Queen. British and Portuguese Troubles. London, March 24. Intelligence has reached here that the Portuguese have declared a state of siege in Manicaland, south Africa, part of which territory is the scene of the operations of the British South African Company, between which company and the Portuguese authorities there is much hostility. It is believed in official circles here that if this reported action of the Portuguese is true, it will result in a further straining of the relations between Great Britain and Portugal. It is stated that the purpose of the Portuguese in declaring a state of siege is to coerce the English who have settled in Manicaland. Reciprocity Commissioner Foster at Madrid. Madrid, March 24. Hon. J. W. Foster, the special representative of the United States in the negotiations for a commercial treaty with Spain, has arrived here and has already had a conference with the ministers. War In British Guinea. Pcekto Cabello, March 24. The first fight has taken place between the Venezuelans and the English on the frontier of British Guinea. The dispute relates to the boundary line between Venezuela and British Guinea. Cabin Notes. The Pope yesterday gave audience to Archbishop Walsh, of Dublin. Tbe German census shows an increase of 2,665,138 in the population. It is reported that large quantities of diamonds have been discovered in north Lapland. Lord Salisbury, the British Prime Minister, left London yesterday for Beaulleu, his new villa at San Remo, Italy. The Gibraltar fund for tbe relief of the surlerers by the lossof the steamship Utopia now amounts to 1,150. This includes 200 from the Italian government. The Marquis Di Rudini.the Italian Prime Minister, and -Lord Dutierin, tbe British minister to ltalv. have exchanged protocols delimiting tho British and Italian spheres in east Africa. The Cleveland iron masters insist that the state of trade in Great Britain makes it necessary for them to reduce the wages of the furnace men 121. per cent. The men are willing to accept a reduction of 5 per cent. The police of Rome yesterday searched a number of Anarchists' houses and seized papers showing that Italian, French. German and Spanish Anarchists are concerting to give their May day manifesto a revolutionary character. The Boersen Zeitung says that the German Emperor will initiate an inquiry into tbe Gneiph fund scandal. The Cologne Gazettee, in an article supposed to be inspired, declares that Prince Bismarck spent 30,000,000 marks, and that the account! were burned. Serious Charges Against an Ex-Consul. Halifax. N. S.. March 21. Mr. Tanner, late United States consul, who lied from the province to escape prosecution on the charge of attempted assault upon a little girl, is reported to be under arrest in Boston, and it is supposed the Pictou authorities will take steps to bring him back to trial. Tanner is married to a young and very beautiful French woman, and is a man of mature years, and belongs to tbe Southern States. He held the position of consul at Pictou for a couple of years. One afternoon last month he called into his office a little girl, daughter of a well-known citizen, who was playing on the sidewalk. He was discovered conducting himself in a most outrageous manner. His arrest followed, and on preliminary examination, he was committed for trial on the charge of attempted criminal assault. He was released on bail in two securities of $1,200 each, and on his own bond of $1,200. A few days later he left town. Tanner sent in his resignation to the State Department at Ottawa, and shortly afterwards his successor was appointed. For Possession of Indian Prisoners. Sioux Falls, 8. D.t March 21. United States Marshal Frey, of this city, made a formal demand upon Captain Somers, of Fort Meade, to surrender the two Sionx Indians, Plenty Horses and Leaves His Wife, who were recently indicted for murdering Lieutenant Casey. Captain Somers replied by stating that he considered the Indians prisoners of war, and refused to surrender them. The government civil officers of this State have notified the authorities at Washington of the determination of Captain Somers, and requested that a demand be made upon the War Department for the surrender of the Indians. The United States marshal in determined, if it is in his power, to give the Indians a trial in the United States District Court, which convenes in Sioux Falls, April 10. " ins T s Kot Compelled to Support ills Child. St. Louis. Mo,, March 24. The Court of Appeals to-day handed down an interesting decision. Frieda Iluke, who will shortly attain her majority, and who has taken to the stage chorus as a means of support since her father, Wra. Huke. thrust her out of doors, sued her father in the Circuit Court to compel him to maintain her. The parent's demurrer to her petition waa sustained, and she appealed to tbe Court of Appeals. Judge Thompson writes the opinion and holds that tbe child has no action against her father for maintenance. He ears that by tbe common law of England a father is not bound to support his infant child in the sense that the obligation has any legal sanction. Report on the California Bribery Case.

KEWIOBK'S WRECKED BANK

How the Washington National Was Forced Into Hands of the Examiner. Sherman's Loose Methods of Deing BasinessA Loni-ville Failure That Looks Like Robbery Co-Operative Concern's Troubles. New York, March 21. Technically speaking, the doors of the Washington-National Bank, whose failure was announced yesterday, were not closed as it was announced they would be to-day. There was nothing to hinder anyone walking in and out of the bank. The doors were not closed nor were there any other barriers to keep people out, But conspicuously posted on the plate glass windows of the doors was the following notice which could not help but be read by anyone who passed through: At the request of the directors I have taken poftefsion of this hank in the name of the Comptroller of the Currency, Hon. Kdward S. Laeey, under whose direction 1U affairs will bo liquidated. A. li. IlEl'KUld. ' National Bank Examiner. The clerks were all at their accustomed desks in the bank at 10 o'clock, and no oue not acquainted with the trueconditionof affairs would have thought that the bank had failed. No mouey was received or paid out. Mr. Sidell Tilghman. of tbe bank's directory, made a brief statement this morning m which he said that the capital stock of the bank, which was SoOU.000, had beeu impaired to the extent of i:X).000. and this all on account of the loans made by President Sherman. Of these loans 03.000 is owed tbe bank by John Silva. No collateral can be found for the loans to Mr. Silva. The only evidences for these loans are drafts on out-of-town parties given by Mr. Silva which were protested. 4If there was any security whatever, given for these two loans," said Mr. Tilghman, "it cannot be found here." Another loan made by Mr. Sherman was $10,000 to Captain Norton of life-boat fame. The loan was made to the captain for the Norton Life-boat Construction Company. Mr. Tilghman eaid that still another loan which was for $50.000 or thereabouts, was made by President Sherman to one party whose name be was not at liberty to mention at present. A dispatch from Washington says: Comptroller Lacoy eaid this afternoon that probably both the Washington Bank, in New York, and the Keystone Bank, in Philadelphia, would right themselves. At all events, the Comptroller said he would not appoint a receiver for either before next week. United States Examiner Hepburn gave out a statement in retard to the Washington bank this afternoon, in which he says: "There will be an apparent loss to this bank, from various sources, of 148,248. This, of course, is an estimate, but it will hardly fall short of that amount. This would still leave the stockholders entitled to a dividend of 60 per cent. Howeverthat may be, I think it safe to say that the depositors will be paid in full. Under the national banking aot the stockholders are liable to an assessment equal to the amount ofitheir stock, which will thus contribute $300,000, more than necessary, to protect the public. No one thing ails the bank, but everything inadequate security for loans,, loans to parties of notorions Impecnniosity, and utter disregard for established business banking principles characterized the management throughout. To say that the bank's method of receiving checks and certifying against tbem violates every principle of business and banking does not approximately do the subject justice. This matter was. unknown to tbe board oi directors, was unknown even to the cashier of t!.o bank, who stated in good faith on Saturday that the item "due from banks" represented straight legitimate collections, which he supposed to be the case. The report of the Comptroller will be made to-morrow, and he will probably appoint a receiver. 1 shall turn over the bank under instructions from the Comptroller. I will allow all parties desiring to pay their balances to this bank on offset balance shown to be due tbem through the books of this bank.' I don't think it advisable to make out the names of the parties dealing with this bank as 1 have been requested to do." - v . Mr. Foster yesterday afternoon denied the statement that the president had not been kept informed of the overdrafts. Mr. Foster says the bank did business on Monday np to 3 o'clock. There was no ehortage in the cash, and there was no run on the bank. John S. Silver, who is mixed np in the Washington National Bank failure, bad a judgment entered against him yesterday for c(J,7fc6 in favor of Adolfo Hegenwisch, receiver of tho United States Rolling-stock Company. Mr. Silver indorsed a note for $9,506 made by tbe Decatur and Nashville Improvement Company to the order of the United States Rolling-stock Company for cars furnished. The note went to protest. Insolvent for Ten Years. ' Louisville, Ky.. March 24. The further the affairs of the Schwartz Bank, which failed here last week, are investigated the greater the liabilities and the smaller the assets. The investigation of the books shows that the bank has been insolvent for ten years, since which time it has been robbing Peter to pay Paul, and by offers of exorbitant rates of interest has got hold of the savings of a large number of working people. So far the liabilities reach nearly a million, while the assets consist of nothing but $300 worth of mutilated currency, left in the safe. Tho cashier has disappeared. The directors will be arrested on a criminal warrant. The deposits will reach about $700,000, and there are debts to other linancial institutions amounting to $112,000. Tho latter are secured by collateral, such as real estate, real-estate notes and good commercial notes. The assets outside of the real estate in litigation include life-insurance policies-amounting to $125,000, but whether mopey can be raised to keep these alive is iu . doubt. The losses began with heavy purchases of real estate, prior to 1S73.- This was mostly suburban and unimproved property, and has brought no return. It was bought in an era of high prices, and will sell now for little, if any. more than the purchase price. Further losses have been upon speculations in tobacco, and these appear from the.: books to have been recently as followsri-In 1S87, $47,716; in 1888, ,541; in 18S9, $44,923. and in 1800. $79,527. In addition the lirm has paid about $24,000 interest on deposits which it has been unable to make pay as much as that, and several families have been living npon the bank's receipts. The bank seems to have done comparatively little really profitable bussiness. Co-Operative Concern In Trouble. Philadelphia. March 24. Argument upon the application made on behalf of the Pittsburg branch of the Universal Order of Co-operation to have a receiver appointed for the whole order took place to-day before Judge Bntler in the United States Cir. cuit Court. Counsel for the complainants j said that he represented over three hun- , dred memoera wno aesirea to nave their interests protected. The order had received over $250,000, and money was coming in right along. The nlan was that a member who would pay in $30 and get two other members to join would, at the end of four months, receive $100. Counsel representing the officers of the ordrr said their clients were, all reputable men and well known in the community. This was a co-operative association, and as a portion of it ceased to co-operate, the wheels of tbe association machinery were stopped. Money was still coming in all the time. and. of course, they were holding on to that. Counsel would like the judge to take the waiter under consideration and to decide whether the order's business could go on or must stop. Since the New Jersey charter had been obtaiued the association hart got another charter in West Virginia, under which a portion of the society was doing business, but not that portion which was the complainant here. Judge Butler said an answer to the application should be put in, so that all tbe facts would be before the court, and then the question whether a receiver should be appointed or not could be passed upon. Tho matter then went over until Friday. Dullness Embarrassments. New Yokk, March 4. Judgment for $2,2TjO was entered at the county clerk's otlice. to-day. against Lilian Russell in favor of James C.

Houston parties are the principal creditors. S. T. Swintord, who was appointed receiver by the court, thinks matters can be amicably adjusted and the plant resume operations in a few days. New Yohk, March 24. John A. Fletcher and Alphonze Keisthal, composing the lirm. of John A. Fletcher V Co., dealers in general merchandise at No. 8 Warren street, assigned to-day. to Henry Marshall, with preferences amounting to $4,900.

Ihe Jndge apDointed Francis S. lligizins. who has been acting as temporary receiver, permanent receiver. The bond fixed in the case is $J00.0OO, and tho receiver is directed to deposit all moneys in the Union and State trust companies. INTO AN OPEN SWITCH. Six Passengers Injured In a Wrack on the Louisville & Nashville Two Boosters Hurt, Louisville, Ky March 24. The fast express on the Louisville &. Nashville road ran oft the track near Anchorage, til teen miles from here, at 11:30 last night. The two rear sleepers were thrown against a side-tracked freight train and were completely demolished. The wreck was caused by a brakeman throwing the switch before tbe train had entirely passed. Mrs. Belle Ellson, of Kokomo, Ind., was probably fatally injured; John H. Meyers, of Covington, Ind., had his shoulder dislocated: Geo. Neagli, of Neagli Bros., Hoboken, N. J., received slight scalp wounds, not serious; Mrs. R. S. Stream, of Greenville, Miss., hip bruised and internal injuries, not considered serious; J. T. Vance, of Cincinnati, contused wound; James W. Houston, of Cincinnati, severe braises. Wrecked and Burned, Milwaukee, March 25.

Nearly all the cars were derailed. They , caught fire, and one sleeper and several cars burned. Willis Andrews, fireman of tbe freight train, was buried nnder the wreckage, and his body is not yet extricated. J. T. Desilva, express messenger, was seriously burned and injured. About a dozen passengers were more or less injured, one or two, it is feared, fatally. The lire department was called out to extinguish the flame. Itoy Killed on tbe Big Four. Spingfield, O., March 24. An accident occurred on the Big Four, about twenty miles from the city, yesterday. A passenger train en route from Columbus to this city, killed a boy named Arthur Dignhart, A freight going Fast was expected in a short time, and it was signaled to stop.

Cregier Denounced bj Harrljon at Chicago Palmer Asked to Stay Away.

CniCAGO, March 24. Carter Harrison tonight mado his first appearaneo in publio since receiving a formal nomination for the mayoralty. It was at Central Music Hall, and the place was crowded to the roof with his adherents. The meeting proved te be one that is likely to be memorable in Illinois politics, and indirectly in national affairs, perhaps, also. Mr. Harrison savagely denounced his tellow-Dcmocrat and opposing candidate. Mayor Cregier, declaring the latter, and not himself, was standing in the way of party harmony. The speaker declared he had this morning written to Mr. Cregier, proposing that both withdraw and a neutral candidate be selected. In a morning paper, however, , he had read that United State Senator-elect Palmer was coming to Chicago to assist in Mayor Cregier's re-election. Under such circumstances the speaker said the offer - to withdraw might be regarded as a weakening, and he instantly resolved: "By the eternal, to stay in the tight to the end." The people resented federal meddling in local concerns, and John M. Palmer, newly panoplied as United States Senator, had no right to come to Chicago to interfere between two sections of theDemocratic par ty. Mr. Harrison, in conclusion, emphatically denied intriguing in his own interest against Palmer's election as Senator, and declared he had given General Palmer undeviating support. The following resolutions proposed by ex-Congresman Frank Lawler, were adopted with a yell of unmistakable unanimity: Whereas, It is alleged that United States Senator-elect John M. Palmer is to be induced to come to CMcapo to support Mr. Cregier in his candidacy for Mayor as the alleged representative of Democracy: therefore, be it Resolved, By the Chicago Personal Risrhts League, to the number of 4,000 in mass-meeting assembled and 40,000 other members in Chicago, that General Palmer be requested not to Interfere with home rule in Chicago as representing no faction but the whole people of Illinois. Resolved, That these resolutions be telegraphed to General Palmer. Senator Palmer was seen to-night at Springfield by a reporter within fifteen minutes after tbe adoption of the resolutions directed to him, and was. advised of the action of the Harrison meeting in Chicago, formally requesting him to stay away from that city and not interfere with "home rule." Being asked what reply he had to make to such a resolution. Senator Palmer replied: "At present 1 hare no answer to make to such a resolution. I presume that a copy of the resolution will be sent me by wire or mail. After I have received an official communication announcing the passage of such a resolution I will send my reply to the parties sending the communication, and they may, if they see fit, fnrnish it lor publication. This is all I have to say of the matter' The Democratic State central committee will to-morrow formally invite General Palmer to participate in tbe Chicago campaign and assist in the election of Dewitt C. Cregier. This much was conclusively determined this evening at a conference of the members the State committee who are in Springfield. The prevailing sentiment of tbe committee is that General Palmer should take no notice of the resolutions adopted to-night. Pennsylvania's Congressional Districts. Harkisburg. Pa., March 24. Bills were introduced in both branches of the Legislature, to-day, to organize and define the congressional districts of the State. The Third district of Philadelphia, which has been strongly Democratic, is greatly altered, and has the appearance of a Repnblican district. It is estimated that sixteen oi the districts proposed are Republican, ten Democratio and four doubtful.

BRIBER 0'MALLErs METHODS. His Part in Fixing the New Orleans Ma fin Jury Sensational Developments Proiniseu. New Orleans, March 2L The grand jury held another long session to-day. and from the witnesses examined it is evident that the body is gettiug deep into the bribery bnsipess. in fact, persons in authority say, with an air of mystery, that there will be some sensational developments before the end of the week. The sensation will, doubtless, be the indictment of a prominent person not heretofore mentioned in connection with the unsavory part of tbe case. As telegraphed last night, O'Malley was i ndicted yesterday for being an accessory , before the fact of the attempting to bribe iurors. McChrystal, his accomplice has told bis master's part in tbe transnc tion, in which the prisoner figured. Detective Collins has told the secrets of O'Maliey'a office. Another city detective kept constant watch on O'Malley'a office aud reported who entered, and O'Malley'a doings have evidently been well shadowed. Many of the witnesses of the last few days have been surprised to find themselves summoned, and protested that they knew nothing until they got into the jury -room. The system of espionage extended to the witnesses for the State. Some of them were threatened and tbe State also learned of etibrts to spirit some away. The State had the advantage of knowing the relative importance of its witnesses, while the defense merely guessed at their knowledge. Tbe defense, therefore, wasted considerable time on witnesses tbe State could veil afford to spare, while the witnesses really wanted were well cared for. Anv how, tbe methods of the defense were well known and thwarted at many steD, although the skill of O'Malley and his henchmen proved eminently successful as far as tbe jurors were concerned. The State is now obtaining full knowledge as to the latter, as well, and the grand jury will create an interesting record before it finishes its work on the Uennessy case.
