(u the other hand it is said that the friends of Truman willoppose the confirmation of Fair- man by the Senate in the hopes of having the latter rejected and their candidate appointed.

THE CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH IED TO THR SHOOTING OF ANTHONY P. O'NEIL BY JAMES ©. KING ON MONDAY Last. A brief account of the shooting of Mr. An- thony F. O'Neil mm New York on Monday last by James C. King, has appeared in Tag Star. From the Tribune we gather the following ad- ditional partienlars: As stated, Mrs. Anna T. King, wite of King, some time ago brought a suit for divorce against her husband. She al- leges that her husband has beaten her without provocation, thrown articles at her while seated at the table, and in other ways maltreated and abused her. On one occasion, in the presence ofa number of persons, be THREW A CUP OF TEA IN HER PACE. The wite claims that her husband has been causelessly jealous of ber, and this morbid feel- ing bas involved serieus consequences on sey- eral occasions, owing to his violent temper and abusive manner. Several years ago, as she al- leges, he quarreled with @ man in California, and subsequently he shot a man in the Sand- wich Islands. Mrs. King lett her busband on one Or more occasions on account of his tll- treatment, but on his promising to do better, re- turned to bim, only to experience the same harsh treatment as before. ORIGIN OF DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS. Last summer Mr. and Mrs King and their family of three children occupied a cottage in Orange county, New York. Among their visitors were Anthony O'Neil, freight agent of the railway, and his wife. Mr. and Mrs. O'Neil boarded near by, and the gentlemen often went hunting and fishing together. It is alleged by King thatO"Neil and Mrs. King became unduly intimate, and that be at length became come vinced that they had criminal intercourse. King began a suit against O'N with Mrs. King, and O'Neil was arrested held to bail in =10.000. Kin, for divorce trom his wif ts. King also insti- tuted proceedings against her husband for divorce. MRS. KING LEAVES HER HUSBAND. Previous to the beginning of these suits, Mrs. King left the house et her husband while he was absent. She took the children with her, and, going to New York, stayed with friends. ‘The case was referred to ex-Judge Sutherland, aud pending bis decision on the testimony the children were entrusted to the father. At the examination before the referee on Monday the testimony was very strong as to King’s cruelty to his wife. King was present, and seemed cool and self-possessed. There was nothing in his demeanor to indicate that he meditated the shooting of O'Neil. The testi- mony baving been given, the referee announced that he would adjourn the further hearing until next week, TRAGEDY. Mr. and Mrs. (Netti and Mrs. Foulk left the office together, and had reached the foot of the stairs leading to the third duor, O'Neill being behind the women, when they were startled by the sound ot a pistol shot fired from the floor abov The ball passed through the rim ot O’Neil’s hat. He turned and saw King at the head of the stairs, still pointing a pistol at him. Before be could make an eflort to escape a second shot was fired. The ball passed through the lappel of his coat, bis vest and shirt, entered the body just below the shoulder- blade between the first and second ribs, penetrated the right jung, and continuing downward lodged in one ot the internai organs. A THIRD SHOT WAS FIRED by King, but missed O'Neil, lodging in the wall a short distance away. Those in the office heard the firing, and ran out, Mr. Adamsand the = Long in time to see the third shot tired. O'Neill staggered into the office of Dennis D. Quick, a broker, and claimed, * I am sho’ AFRAID OF JUDGE LYNCH. No attempt was made to seize King, who turned, walked into ex-Judge Sutherland's ot- fice, laid the pistolon a table in front of that gentleman, and then running into an inner office bolted the door. The alarm mmean- while been given, and Patrolman Gibpey was informed of the hiding-place of King, and, pro ceeding thither, demanded admittance. No response was given, aud the officer(a power- ful man) threw himself against the door, and in a short time nearly burst it from its ‘hinges. Before this was fairly accomplished, King un- bolted the door and surrendered himseit. An immense throng had gathered in front of the building, and there were loud cries of “ Lynch the murderer.” King was taken out by a back way, however, and was safely lodged in the station-house. When asked the usual questions at the station, he answered those relative to his name and age, but quietly and courteously re- fused to say anything about the shooting, al- lJeging Ubat he wished to see his counsel before saying anything that might be construed as criminating himself. THE WOUNDED MAN ind died from interna! hemorrhage twenty minutes after be was shot. Police Sur- geon Dalrymple made a superficial examination of the body. He probed the wound, and found — % ball had taken the course already de- scribed. inking into a chair ex- sank rapidly, KING'S STATEMENT. King, when questioned as to the relations which had existed between himself and the deceased, stated that up to the time of his dis- covery of the intimacy between O'Neil and his wile he had been on the most friendly terms with him. He made the acqua‘ntanceof O'Neil when he moved to Turner's, and the latter had enjoyed his hospitality on many occasions. O'Neil and his wife were cordially welcomed whenever they chose to come. RETICENCE OF THE PRISONER. He was anxious to give every particular of bis case to the press, but he did not feel at liberty to do so until he bad consulted with his counsel He claimed that there had been no serious trouble between his wife and himself until July lsst; but when asked whether or not he had quarreled with a man in the Sandwich Islands declined to answer. He had been married te: years; had been in business in California under the name of James C. King & Co., bankers. and Was subsequently in the same business in New York, at Exchange place and Broadway. He was subsequently a law partner of Eawin James, but dissolved partnership about one Fear ago. Since he removed trom Turner's he ad stopped with bis children at No. 14 east ai op ae . a rhe deceased was about 35 years of age, and boarded at No. 50 west 32d street.
