, THI CHICAGO ——ee e DON CARLOS. 8till Conspiring Against Alfonso, and Now Abetted by the King's Mother. The Many Scandals that Ted to tho Pretender’s Recent Expulsion from France. Mrrewondence New Tork World, Pams, Dec, 8L.—A few months ago Don Car- P quitted the scat of war,—Lthat is, the Russlan titadquarters,—and went back to Buchareat. 1 witl not.dwell upon his mode of lifo while In that place, but will mercly mention that when heleft ho took with him the wifo of & rich Wallachtan, Mme. Gradlatiano, who s described a8 being ono of the most besutiful women o that country. This elopement created a great sensatlon even n Roumania} the clite of Bucharcat itself, the “City of Pleasurc,” were shocked, The oxcito- ment became all the greater when, & few weeks afterwards, Mme. Gradistiano returned alone, secking the forgivencss of her husband. The 8panish Prince had abandoned her st Jassy to take up with another person, ons belonging to a less clevated sphere, and ;hou namo b needless _to mention. nving arrived I:z Vienns, Don Carlos thought it wiso to pay his.respccts to tho head of his IrmBy,—lho French Count de Chambord,— und so started for Frohsdorf. But whethor from political rcasons or because of the com- plaints of Madame the Duchess of Madrid, the Bealected wifo of Don Carlos, the titnlar King of Spaln found it impossiblo to obtaln an au- dlence of the titular King of France, Henri V. Maving made several Ineffectual attempts he returned to Paris, where his wifo and children are residing in a handsome villa near the Park of Parsy, Don Carlos was not. permitted to en- joy his home uninterruptediy. The French ‘Government made it known to the Protender that his room was preferable to his company,— n other words, he was ordered to leave the vountry at once, 'Tho reasous which led tothis T will briofiy relate. No sooncr had Don Carlos arrived than he was called upon by the ex-Queen Isabella of Spain, who walked out in public ond drove out with this avowed enemyof hierown son, Alfonso XII, 8he made a great show of cordiality in lier meetings with the Protender, and caused her attendants to kiss his hand in sign of homage when they took leave of him. Naturally cnourh the 8panfsh Ambassador, ths Count do Mollns, took umbrage at_this, made complaints to the French Forelrn Office, and Don Carlos was in- yited to *‘walk Spanish' and '*take French leave,” It is sald that Quecn Isabella in all she has done has been actuated partly by anger at the approaching marriage of her son with tho daughter of tho Duke of Mamgcnnler, and Eml y by other circumstances which I will make known 10 yo. Homa slx wecks ago Queen Tsabella passed a few daya at Ban Scbastlan. 8he tvas accompa- nled by her private secrotary M, Ramero Pucn- te, who, it Is well known, has‘a very marked in- fluence over the Queen. Il is cver with her, making himsclf yery useful, and mvln{z eyidonea ot rara dovotion. Ono evening, while walking with Isabella, who waa cscorted by one of her gard du corps, 0 young nobieman, the privato scuretary was 50 demonstrative fo his manifes- tations of regard for lsabella as quite to shock. the gard du corps, who, scting literatiy in that capoeity, inforned M. Ramero Puente that his conduct was intolerable. The noxt morning the guardsman was lsmissed by the Queen, who, in addition, ob- talned an order from the War Minlster that the ‘punctiilous young zentleman should be stricken arom tha rofl of the corps. Forty-eight hours ufter this the entiro force of tho guards sent in thelr resignation, having Icaroed tho state of things, ood been made acquainted with the cause which had led to the disgrace of tucle comrade. Becoming also acquainted with the clrcum- stances, Klog Alfonso, who, up to the present titme, has borno with exemplary filial paticace tho strange conduct of the Queen, was very mucn {ncensed. o refused to accept *he reig- hatlon of the body-guard, relnstated the young ofticer just mentfoned, and dirccted his way- ward mamma Instantly to dismiss her private sceretary and todeavo Spain, There was no dls- cusslog such an order, and the ex-Queen did Teavo the country, having appatently complied in full with tho wishes of her son by alao dle- misatng M. Ramero Puente. Alfonso appolnted a succeesor, and all scemed 1lkely to go on more peacefully, when most unfortunately the old ‘(emlumnu who had succeeded Puente suddenly bruke down and dled, and the Queen, being in Franco without any grlvnm secretary naturale 1y permitted M. Ramecro Puente to re- sumoc his duties. Ho bas slnce lost no opoortunity of polsoning the mind of thio ex-Qucen agatnst her son, and has managed to make her quarrel with all the members of the Spanish Royal family. More especially was this manifested in the Queen’s conduct towards the Marquis of Valearios, the King's cousin, who resides In Paris. - Unable to bear patiently the tmpertinence of M. Ramero Puente, the Marquis challenged him. Puente, however, did not **sce it," sothe Marquis published him §n the Paris press as n cowurd and a scoundrel. To this the nvutcmcrclnrzrcpuw bythethreat of a lawsul ty aud there the inatter rests, but meanwhile Puente hns not been idie. Heo has persuaded tho ex-Queen to make common causo with Don Carlos, the worst enumy of the King, Lerson, Tho thing began by viaits made to the Princess .\l-r‘xuerlw, the wife of Don Carlos, who at that time was amusiug hiimsclf, as I bave mentioned, at Bucharcst and Jassy, Tne mo- tnent he srrived In Panis Ramero Tuents saw him, and it was ngreed upon that lasbolln should make a public show of reconcitiation with the Pretender. I supposethey all thought that the Goverument hers would have euough to do minding its own offalrs,—the crisls was golug on then,—and that tho littlo thing they were Efluw up would huve a smuoth way be- foroit, But tho new Cabloct came In, and ns Lue new Foreign Ministor, M. Waddingtan, is an officlal yhose scisv of duty fs very awrong, and who s as intclligent o8 ho fa consclentious, lie soun saw through the Carlos and Pucnto plot. and put a peremptory cod to it, 50 far as its belng carried on in France s cuncerned, by sending tho Pretender across tho fronticr. 1 Kear that tho latter haa gono to Ita- Iy, and that o took a companion with bim—an« other lady friend, Hlo doca_not, probably, ke to tako I'rincess Margarct away trom tho cares of hier famtly, yet, an he dislikes to travel a o Rlways manages to fiud some charitablo sou) 1 nkurlu on him.

" ORIME. AN INDIANA SCANDAL, Boettal Disvatch to The Chicago Tribune. LA Ponte, Ind., Jan. 18.—Last spring W. B. McCartney, editor and propristor of the now defunct Jfieform Journal of Michlzan City, wrote an articlo for publication In which ho ae- cused John H. Winterbotham, State Benator, who fs a heavy contractor in tho Btate Prison North, together with J. J. Griffeth, an ex-con- viet whols employed by him as bookkeeper, with seducing Mrs. Nellie Gooawin, wife of G. P. Goodwin, and Mrs. Van Dusen, wife of Jay R. Van Dusen. Goodwin at tho time was under arrest for fllezal voting, and shrough Winter- botham’s ald was cleared. During his trial, which came off at Indlanapolls, ho was absent from homs considerable, and it was during this absence that the alleged crimo was committed. Winterbotham, through thno em- ployes in tho Journal offlce, learncd that tho article was coming out, and he procured sn fn- Junction to prevent bis publishing- tha article, Before tho injunction was scrved, Mr. McCart- ney had 700 or 800 of the papers printed, which ho ran off in the woods. A large numberof theso papers were circulated in spite of the vigl- lance of the officers. After this, an Inter-Ocean repurler came down from Chicago and rote up the affalr, giving both eides of tho story, Win- terbotham emphatically denfed the whole thing, claiming that it was written for tho burposo of blackmail, M. 8. Ragsdale, cx-Chaplain of the prison, s tne author of the artlcle, who wroto it out of rovenge, as he thought that Winterbotham had wmuhlul:{: b !;r do with his removal, and it was publish McCartney for the same purpose, as he was in artnership with Winterbothatn in the munu. acturs of carrioges in the prison, and owing to sone mlaundcuwndlur they dissolved partner- ship. Winterbotham is worth about $500,000, and he safd he would fight the thing to the bit- terend, Tho case was put off from one ferm to anather, until Winterbotham gat the partics who held n mortgazce on his oflico to forecloso 1t, and, McCartuey being unable to mect it, be was closed up. * Ragsdale confessed laving written the articlo out of revenze, but hiefore the_confession was made public Winterbotham paid his expenses to Florlda, whero ho still {s. On the other aidy, McCartney had the afllda. vitof o woman who sworo sho saw Winter- botham and Mrs. Goodwin in the act of crim- inal Intercourae by looking through o hole in the door_which she had made. Mrs, Goodwin and Mrs. Van Dusen, according to McCartney’s statement, acknowledged *‘the corn” ot _flrst, and sftersard Mrs.Van Dusen denfed 1t. When Wintcrbotham scovered that Griffeth was ““making frea’ with the woman, hie becama in- dignant, telling Goodiin to shoof. him (neaning Griffeth), which Goodwin declined to do. Win- terbotham soon cooled down, as Griffeth knew enough to make {t warm for him {f ho did not keep still. When Grilfeth was joterviowed by the reporter he frankly admitted having had eoxual intercoursc with Mra. Good- wln' and safd that **it ovcurred first at a hatel in Chicago, and alterwanls at her own house In Michlgan City, His statcment was looked upan by many as simply gotten up to_ shicld Winterbotham, and that lic got well paid for it. Mrs, Van Duscn, who boarded with Mrs, Goodwin, was fu o dellcato situation, and shortly afterwards gava birth, ller husband, when the facts beeamo publie, separated from hier, which was tho samo {n Goodwin’s casc, so that two happy homes wers broken up. Dunng this speclal term of court, Mrs. Good- win sued Winterbotham tor some furniture and personal effects which he had Jevled upon for n debt which her huasband owed him. The jury roturned a verdict In her favor, giving her tho furmiture and goods, Durfug the trinl Winter- hothan ottenipted to impeach her testimony, but the Court refuscd to allow it. Mr. Van Dusen has obtained a divoree from s wife, Guodwin will flle o blll for divorce and suo Winterbotham for damages. A CITATTER OF CRIMT. Soectal Diavatehto The Uilcazo Tridune, 8.

Benator Morrissey was unwell durlng the Albany Convention. Ife com- platned of hils throat. and coughied continually. The damp and disagrecable weather aggravated hiscomplaint. At first ho treated it as a slight cold, and said that it would soon wear off; Lus after the Convention the symptoms beeame eo distressing that he placed himeclf in the hands of his physician. lie was rapidly recovering when the fall political —campaizn opened, Then came the strurgle with * the lion, Augustus 8chell for the Btate Semate. Mr. Morrissey threw himsell fnto the fight with un- flagging energy. lle asssulted the Gibratar of the Tammany Domocracy. The ficht was des. perate, and attracted more attention than any Seuntorial contest ever waged In this city. Afl the details were arranged under Mr. Morris- personal supervision. Hain or shine he was at the front. Quarter was neither asked nor given. Despite the warnings of his doctor, the Senator visited each election rict, per- sonally conducted every movement, and did not cease his cxertions untll the polls wero closed and Tammany routed, horse, foot, and nrllucrfy. Ho had taken s lifo in his hand and won the fight. A relapse followed. Il llfe trembled in the scales, But with careful nursing his naturally-strong constitution asserted ftsclf and lic slowly recoyered. As soun: ns he wus able lni:o out, his doctor advised & trip to Flornda. e took the advice, ond teft on the first Bavaunah steamer, a col- ored attendant his sole companion. The trip was a pleasant une. ‘The weather was dellghi- {ul, and the soft, warm air proved highly bene- ficlal, - On Mr, Morrlssey's arrival in Savannat his friends soy that he put up at the Puluski House, an old and somewhat famous resurt for Southern chivalry. Ile had no particular ac- un(ntances in that city, and walked up to the clerk’s desk and wrote his name upon the reg- ister llke any other traveler. The proprictors rasizned him fine rooms, and did their best to make Mm comfortable, The news of his arrival wna announced In the dally ncwspapers, and ereated mueh {nterest, Naturally unubtrusive in his demneanor, he shunned pubficity, bus was affable and courteous to all who made his acquaintance. e took lis menls at a table re- moved from general observation, and had no company. The ladles cyed i somewhat cu- riously, and lie was slicntly lionized by all, but boyond this nothing wos said or donethat would lead him to supposc he was o wan of more than usual interest. One duv, howgver, the traditional Georgla biossom appearcd at the hotel. He came frun upcountry, near the Muscoeeo district, and was on_his annunl spree. Ile was six feet hizb, well bullt, and in his own country was o tman of conslderable consequenco. Away from home ho attracted peneral attention by ihe loudness of his volce, the violeuco of lis actlons, and his odd appearance, Il heard tho guests of the hotel commenting on Senator Morrissvy, and magined that his own light was eclipsed by the unobtrusive gentleman from New York. ™ ‘The Muacogeo blossom made 1o eifort to conceal his chagrin, He roarcd fn the corridors over the cotton crop, and ostentatiously alred himself in the ladics’ parlor. All in valn. No one gave him the slightest considuration, Disappointed and exasperated, e entercd the dining-hall and sat down at a prominent table, opparently de- termined to create s sensation. Scnator Mor- risscy was quictly cattng his dinner in his usual place. The Georglan, recognizing an acqualnt- ance across tho room, began a conversation with him, “eracker® fushion, inaloud volee. The talk drifted ubon politles, the recent eloction in New York servinge as a pivot. “New York City; ! sald tho Muscogec bl son, s the slum-hole of politiclans.” No Apcctabile man can hold office there.! Ralsin his volea: ** Why, no mau cau be elected Lo the Leglslature from New York City unless Licisa thlof or o gumbler." ‘Tho vbject ol his remarks was so palpable that every eye was turned upon Mr. Morrissey, Thu Senator did not ralse his cyes, but finfsbul his meal us thoigh totally unconscious of the conversation, Incounscd by his slicnce, the Mus- coueo blussom becamo 8o persoual in his allu- slons that several lndles left thedining-room. After dessort, Mr., Morrissey walked out to the oilice and lighted a clgar. One of the proprie- torsof the hotel began to apologizes for the scenaln the dinfuw-room, but the Senator nter- rupted him by saying, * Don't give yourself the shtest uneasing You vcertalnly are not respousiblo for the drivel of & blackguard, and [ hu{m you will say nothing more about it." Whils the &cnator was leaning upon the clgar-stand, the goutleman from Muscogee came down the corridor amd pi woly brushed sgainst hin In passing, Mr. Morrissey tapped Blm on the shoulder, sayinz, “1 bey your par- dom, sir; but 1 overlicard your remarks at the diuner-table concernlng Now York and New Yorkers. Probably you were not aware thas 1 um from New York Cley “40h, yus, I reckon [ was," sald the Muscogee blossom, #Llien," contlnued Senator Morrisscy, * when calling the city members of the Nuw York Legislaturo thicves aud mamblers, you were not awure that I was ono of those olliclala,” 4O, yes, I reckon T was,” repeated the Mus- coges biossom very unconcernedly. ** Probably you knuw wio I am, and your re- marls at tho table were meaut: for we," said tho Benator, ] reckon you'ro right.” replicd the blossom, with refreshing fnsolence. **Thoy wero just meant for you surc, and no oue cls¢,” o st with his dogers tn his platol-pocket, Morrissey nover ratsed his hauds.
