TnTI Account of Tweed's Escape From Jail. ew York, April 3. Harper's Weekly for to-morrow will publish an illustrated article describing the flightand exile of Wm.Tweed. The following are the chief points of the story. The approaching trial of the great six million suit against Tweed threatened a demand on his cash resources for fees, which he plainly saw if he should fail to answer his remaining possessions were not available to raise ready money, and credit especially with lawyers, was out of the question. His money was gone and hb courage was broken down also.and he resolved on flight as a remedy for his bank ruptcy and his hopeless imprisonment. Having lost the great judges and lawyers of the courts he had created and controlled, he found himself forced to fall back upon their clients, his fellow prisoners in jail. Tweed's messmate in the Ludlow street jail was Charley Smith, the silk smuggler, whose extradition led to the abrogation of the treaty with England. From Lira Tweed learned all tb.3 necessary details of the existing treaties and laws on the subject, and having decided upon flight he resolved to reach Spain as the most expedient shelter, in view of the absence of any extradition treaty with that country. Another of the inmates of the Lndlow street prison was a person of many professional alliances, who has since been safely lodged in a penitentiary in Vermont. He is best known by the name of Bliss and was engineer of the extraordinary Northampton bank robbery. He was also professionally engaged in the famous Washington safe ' burglary. This person was lodged in the upper floor and had approached Tweed with a proposal to avail himself of the removal of the iron grating of his window, which was on the ground floor, and which would enable them both to escape. The whole matter was maiiged from the outside by associates of Bliss. The proposition had been at first laughed at by Tweed, but meeting his professional neighbor daily in the court yard of the jail, where they took exercise, the subject was more definitely discussed, and outside friends ol the professional being called in, Tweed was persuaded of the practicability of a plan which they presented, and for the execution of which he agreed to pay a stipulated sum. No member of the bar nor bis counsel, nor aay friend or person whatever of his previous connections knew of his proposed flight, or had any part in its execution; neither did they know of his whereabouts at any time until it had become necessary for him to communicate with them after his arrest in Cuba by the Spanish officials. Tweed understood he was to be taken in charge by a well organized body of men distributed throughout the country, having every facility, their connections and method being thoroughly tested and well established. He was furnished with a short key for telegraphic communication and one for postal facility. The latter included a system of enclosures through five different envelopes with addresses at removed points. He was to find occasion to visit his house and deliver himself over secretly and unattended at his own door. The execution of the agreement included his landing in Spain, or under the Spanish Hag and on Spanish territory, safely and secretly. He was given the name of John Secor, by which he was to be known to his new connections, and his personal identity and his own name was to be kept from all persons, without exception, fr.om the moment' he passed out of his own stoop. The exact minute of departure was fixed at 8 o'clock in the evening not more than one minute before to one minute after that hour. The exact time of his flight was left undetermined, but he was to visit his house on certain days, and when the whole train was ready a sign was to be given by a certain mark on the sijop which he could see as he ascended his steps. Accordingly Tweed took occasion to obtain from the sheriff and his keepers the usual privilege of the jail yard to visit his family and transact some business. Several such visits having been made to his house, at the usual hour after dark he secretly made some preparation of personal matters, and putting his business affairs in as good order as possible. Finally it reached the 4th of December, 1875, which proved the occasion of his departure. On the evening of that day he was driven in the customary hack, attended by two keepers, to his house. Ascending the steps he saw the sign. It was about half past 7 o'clock and a dreary December evening. The signal at once aroused him with a startling shock, and as he describes the occurrence his blood and his nerves were filled with an electrical excitement which thrilled every fiber ot his frame. Controlling himself with some effort he led his attendants to their wonted and welcome feast which, on this occasion, was amp'y provided in the dining room. The keepers ate and Tweed took rare also that they drank. At just the right moment one of the keepers rose and went to the wasii basin in the room to wash Lis hands and get ready for the usual cigar after dinner. Tweed took the opportunity, rose also, and saying he would wash in an adjoining room, parsed into the hall, closing the door as he left the room. He quickly took the tint bat and coat and .lipped ou; the frontdoor. He was a fugitive. He haw the hack before the door without the driver, who also took al vintage of the occasion in the kitchen. Not a person or sound appeared to respond to his appoin meitt. It was not quite one minute past 8 o'clock. He had stolen forth from Lome to place himself in the hands and guidance of a picked gang of desperadoes. As be shrunk back finder the shadow of the stoop, it deemed to him a long !eriod of doubt and selfexamination, until his attention was attracted by the noise f wheels and he saw a common tradesman's wagon, such as is used by grocers and express drivers. He . saw also a man's arm reach out from the over, which was a s gn that it was for him. As he decended the tfcwp he also saw a man passing slowly, which caused him to hesitate, but this raoti said, in a low tone, "all right, get in the wagon." So he scrambled into the covered wagon, which drove rapidly around the block into Madison avenue, but as they got there a car, having run off the track, some mounted police and passengers stood in the Way, and the fugitive was stopped for tw or three minutes. The wagon ioon started again and drove zigzag across the city toward North river, which was soon reached, and beside a big truck on the pier they stopped. The driver said, 'Get out on the riverside." Tweed got out, wein that ttie truck covered him from observation. As he alighted a man who stood near the truck also indicated that Tweed was to descend into a row boat, in which he quickly embarked and crossed to the Jersey side. There he was met by another vehicle in waiting for him on the höre road, when he was driven off into a region beyond the river an I p tlisadVs in a direction and to a termination where he never had been before, and could not now ascertain or indicate. At au old farm house Tweed was received by another of bis new found friends, and in this refuge, disguised, he continued from Pvreriiber 4 until the first VAfilr In f wi I a 1 11 ft 1 1 1 ika Ann t va! ff the two iih-ii who had managed his I escape and contracted for hit .
safety. He did implicitly what they directed, and they held him in hand like trainers. He slept, he rose, he walked, he rode, ate and drank only as they Instructed him, and it may be remarked here that this discipline and relation was maintained until he closed his engagement with them satisfactorily in Florida. On December 5 he left Jersey and took up a temporary abode on S taten Island, about half a mil from Fort Wadsworth, at the Narrows, in a fisherman's hut with his two companions. Here the party staid two weeks, making preparations. Mr. Tweed not only lived at this shad man's but for two weeks, but even made a visit across the channel and stopped a night in Brooklyn. During his stay on S taten Island a light and fast sailing little schooner was fitted out and manned by himself and two companions, with a negro boy. He started at last from he pier in front of the fort in a row boat, in the night, and slipped away upon a pleasant breeze. In due course, and without anything noticeable, they reached the lagoons on the coast of Florida. At one of the light house stations they made a definite stoppage again, Tweed taking board with the keeper of the light bouse as John Secor, an invalid gentleman, seeking restoration of health and the recreation of hunting and fishing. Here too he parted with his guides from New York, closing his contract with them at that place. Here Tweed was Joined by the person who is known as Hunt in the reports of his subsequent arrest. This man was a Florida guide, and with him Tweed spent a long time in the interior, camping out, hunting and fishing. Subsequently he returned to St. Augustine, which place he left in a fishing smack for Cuba, and he and his companion Hunt landed ten miles outside of the harbor of Santiago de Cuba. The remainder of the story is devoted to an account of Twepd's adventures in Cuba, his subsequent sailing for Spain, the arrest at Vigo and the return to the United States. Appended to the above story is the following letter: TWEED GIVLS UNDER. Ludlow Street Jail, Dec. 6, 1S7C To Charles O'Conor, Esq.: Sir I take the liberty of addressing you this letter In view of the fact that your position as the counsel designated by the state authorities in my matters has professed sole y the public good, regardless of any factions or personal Interest. Heretofore I have met mv troubles with every resource at my disposal. Possibly, ' In a mistaken sense, of duty, I have stood up too long to shield others as well as myself, bearing such losses and punishment as were meted out to my transgressions and my misfortunes, it was truly more In the interest of others than in my own that the litigation and resistance were prolonged. Viewing the manner of my returning to the wards of this prison, realizing the taunts in the city, state and nation which I am brought here to confront, It will not, I hope, seem to be a presumption or insincerity In me to say that I am indeed overwhelmed. All further resistance being hopeless, I have none now to make, and seek the shortest and most efficient manner in which I may mke an unqualified surrender. It is not my purpose to dispute or apjeal or further resist the suits which you have against me in the name of the state and people. I propose forthwith 'o place at your disposal a full surrender of all I have left of property or efT-ct, and respond at onceto sucn examination In this connection as may assure you of the good faith of this assignment as well as to show the entire amount und disposition of all 1 have possessed so far as you may wish It to be detailed. I am an old man. greatly broken in health, cast down in spirit, and can no longer bear my burden. To mitigate the prospect of a hopeless Imprisonment, which must speedily terminate my life, I should, It s-enis to me, maKo any sacrifice or effort. During the early stages of the suits and proceedings against me, I was ready to mike rest I' ut Ion and reparation as far as in my p iwer. Entanglement with the interest and counsels of other delayed and defeated tills. I regret Unit my means have now become so utterly inadequate. I would not make futile otter if 1 had not some assurance through your published statements that the vindication of principle and the prospect of permanently purifying public service are the objects you have In view as being more desirable than the recovery of the money. If in any manner you may see fit to use me in such connection I shall he only too glad to resond,trusting implicitly in your high reputation and character. I ask to make only a single observation, not as regards myself, but wherever others may be concerned. Leaving mr personal and;property Interests to be put to the fullest tests of examination and publicity, I would hope to have any matters affecting other persons restricted to your private knowledge and discretion knowing as you do every material fact already. It would be unavailing for me further to resist or withhold any details you may demand. I only ask in qualification of utmost frankness that jour more reliable Judgment shall take the responsibility of the publication and use of such matters only as may be necessary for the ends you wish to advance. ' I remain, yours very truly, Wm. M. Tweed.
SOUTH CAROLINA. IlayeVa Order to Withdraw the Troops from the State Honte. Washington, April 3. The following letter was written by the president, and sent to the secretary of war to-day: Executive Maxsiox, Washiwgtox, l. C, April 3, 1S77. Sir. Prior to my entering upon Ihe duties of the presidency, there had been stationed, by orlr .f ray prrdermor, in the srato house at loiumljia, SJ. (.'., a tletnchroent of I HUel States infantry. Finding them in thit place. I have thought proper to delay ft decision of the qiit-Hlioii of their removal until I coul l consider and determine whether the condition of affairs In that state Is now such as to either require or Justify the continued military Occupation of the sate house. In my opinion there does not now exis'. In that state such domestic violence as Is contemplated by the constitution as grounds upon which the military power of tiie national government may be invoked for the defense of the stale. There are, It Is true, grave and serious disputes as to the rights of certain claimants to the chief executive office, of that st -te, but these are to be wttied and determined, not by the executive of the United States, but by such orderly and peaceable methods as may be provided by the constUntiou and law of lle state. I feel assured no resort to violence is contemplated in this quarter, but that, on the contrary, the disputes In question are to be settled solely by such peaceful remedies as the constitution and law of the state provides. Under these circumstances and in Ihis confidence I now deem It proper to take action in accordance with the principles announced when I entered upon the i titles of the presidency and you ar therefore directed to see that the proper orders are 1-sued for the removal of the said troop Irom the state house to their previous place oi eno tmpment. (Signed) R. B Hates. To Hon. Geo. if. McCrary, Secretary of War: The following letter was sent to General Sherman by the secretary of war: War Depatment, Wufchlngton, April a, 1877. To General V. T. Sherman, Commanding United States Army; General I enclose herewith a ct py mt the communication from the president of the United Slates In which he directs that the detachment of United States troop now stationed in the state houte at Columbia, Koulh Carolina, be withdrawn and returned to their previous bar ack or camping ground. You are hereby charged with the execution of this order una will caue the wltudrawal to take place Tuesday next, the 1 th of April, at 12 meridian. Very respctf lly, your obedient servant, George W. McCkary, Hecretary of War. It has been popularly believed that the color of the green bearded oysters found near 8-tuthend. Essex, England, is due to copper imbibed from the soil of the water; but Mr. Frank Buckland declares it tobe owing o n-rules of the sea-weed called "crow-silk."
A GRAND AFFAIR.
A. T. OftKborn, Director General of the Centennial Exhibition, Given a dinner at 11 ncl natal. Cixcixxati, April 3. The dinner tendered A. T. Goshorn. director general of the Centennial exhibition, occurred at the Grand hotel to-night and was a superb affair. It was attended by some 125 prominent citizens of. this city. Among those present from abroad were T. 8. Harrison, Esq., chairman Citizens' centennial committee of Philadelphia, Colonel Myer Arche.assistant secretary of the United States centennial commission, and private secretary of the director general, and Robert Cox, of Philadelphia, Mayor Johnston, Hon. Wm. S. Groesbeck, ex Governor Noyes, Judge Force, M. Halstead, Esq., and others of this city. Ex-Attorney General Taft presided. After a bountiful repast Judge Taft made an eloquent address of welcome, claiming the origin of the expositions for ancient Greece in the Olympian, referring to the interest awakened in America by the expositions of later years and mentioning the interest surrounding the Cincinnati expositions and her musical festivals. He was frequently interrupted by applause. In reply Mr. Goshorn spoke as follows: Mr. Chairman and Gentleman. After an absence of almost four years, engaged in an important national work, I have returned to renew my interest in the affairs of my city. I dtd not expect, nor have I thought that I deserved the distinguished recognition which you have extended to me this evening. There is no compensation more valuable to the citizen than the Indorsement of hit public acts by his friends and neighbors. Your friendly words and earned expressions of approval of my public services have affected me most sensibly. I appreciate in the fullest measure your kindness, your friendship, aud this cordial and sincere welcome to my home. I thank you for the compliment of this occasion and for the distinction which It conveys to this community and to the country. I am indebted to the citizens of Cincinnati for their confidence and for the official positions I have held here and elsewhere. When I was appointed by Governor Noyes and commissioned by the president of the United States as Centennial commissioner from Ohio, and more especially when 1 was chosen director general of the international exhibition of 17, the public understood and I was glad to acknowledge that these positions of trust were offered me in recognition of my connection with the Cincinnati industrial exposition. To the experience I acquired in that enterprise am I indebted in a large degree for whatever of success and honor that have ensued from my labors in Philadelphia, and to that enterprise are we indebted this evening for this pleasant meeting. When I was solicited to assume the direction of the exhibition In Philadelphia, In the spring of 1S73, I had grave doubts (1 the expediency of acceding to the solicitation. The project was surrounded by embarrassments that seemed insurmountable. It had been authorized by congress and had been proclaimed to the world, but It was without means and wlthont governmental sympathy or8upport, but already the good name of the republic had been involved In the enterprise, and. realizing this, 1 determined to Join i.y labors with those who were struggling to tustain the honor of our country. It required courage and abiding faith in the ultimate success of the undertaking. There were found at Hiatal me citizens of Philadelphia ready to give generously ot their time and money. They supported the exhibition when it was rnost in need, and to them is due more than any other the great honor that resulted to- the country from the success of the exhibition. I am glad of an opportunity at my home to acknowledge their kindness and hospitality to me, a stranger In iheir midst, and to thank them and my associates of the United States Centennial commis sion and the Centennial board of finance, and my faithful officials fur their patient and unceasing co-operation with me in the administration of the duties confided to me. I need not pak to you of the trials of the administration, of the magnitude of the labors and of the happy results of the exhibition, Then- are now matters of record. I may be ptrn, it ted, however, to express the conviction that the exhibition promoted international comity, gave the representatives of all of the various nations an opportunity to study and appreciate our institutions and . resources. That it elevated the foreign estimate of American character aud of the pra tical ingenuity of our people, and that it gave the eop!e ot the United states a better knowledur of themselves, of the r opportunities, of the richness of their heritage and of the cultivation, taste and advancement of other nations. It was an appropriate ceremony, conducted by a free people, in commemoration of a most Important epoch in the history of our country. The nations of tbe world came t- Join us in a celebration that will be remembered for all time as an occasion of peace and good will. May the concord aud harmony of that assemblsge of the nations remain with us as an enduring monument of lnternatiot al fraternity, and of the happiness, prosperity and contentment of our united country. But, gentlemen, I arose to acknowledge your friendly greetlngs,and not to discuss the events of the past year with which my name was associated. I pray you, therefore, again to accept my sincere thanks and gratitude for your great courtesy and to ask you to Join me in wishing our city a brl liant fu'ure. May he succeed in every enterprise she undertakes and may there arise here for the enjoyment and cultivation of our people, and as a natural outgrowth of our own and international exhibition of 1S7Ö, a grand museum of science and art. The London exhibition of 1SÖ7 gave to Ixmdon the South Kensington museum. May our exhibition give to Cincinnati a similar institution as a permanent attraction and an honor to our city. a letter erom hvyes. The following letter from President Hayes wa3 read: Wakhikoto, D.

Walker, arrived at the Hughes house. Phoenixville. and registered from Bridgeport, Connecticut. She was poorly and strangely clad, but from her conversation appeared quite intelligent On Thursday last she returned to the hotel after a tramp through the town, during which she disposed of a number of stencil plates. This appeared to be her occupation. She was sufTering severely, and a physician being summoned, her disease was found to be congestion of the lungs. She continued to grow worse from that time till Saturday evening, when, while sitting on a chair, she fell forward with her face upon a bed. and being too weak to rise, she thus expired. Her clothing was found to be very scanty and filthy, and her person swarmed with vermin. In her two thin ragged skirts were sewed np nine b ink books, showing deposits in various Connecticut banks as well as a number of certificates of stock in the same. A document was also found showing that she had paid otT a judgment which had been a lien on a farm willed her ty her mother. These papers show her to have been worth at least 18,000. The public authorities of Bridgeport have been telegraphed to concerning the mysterious woman. - . . . . t
