Thomas A. Marvin, the bigamist, who was arrested in Lynn, Mass. a few days ago, and whose exploits asa bigamist and forger have recently been fully ventilated in Taz Star, was before the police court of Lynn, Mass., last Sat- urday, charged with being a fugitive from justice from Richmond, Va. The accused re- fused to plead tothe name of Marvin, claiming that his true name was Budlong A. Morton. Mr. Phillips, for the commonwealth, asked for a continuance to give time for the requisition from the Governor of Virginia to reach Governor Long. The judge stated that under the cir- cumstances he could not grant a continuance for that purpose, and stated that the counsel could introduce evidence. Mr. Phillips stated that he was not ready Son his wit- nesses were in Chicag6, asked fora contin- uance for the purpose of producing them. The judge consented to a continuance, and in ocon- Sultation betweeen counsel as to the of time, Mr. Hulburt said he wanted time enough to take out a writ of habeas corpus. Counsel finally agreed on Tuesday, August 23, which date was fixed by the court, and the ac- cused was committed to Jail in default of $5,000 ——___-e-______ The New Haven Mystery. JENNIE CRAMER DRUGGED TO ACCOMPLISH TER RUIN. It is beNeved that a chemical examination of the stomach of Jennie Cramer points towards the presence of cantharides, and this will strengthen the theory that the girl was drugged for the purposes of rain. Its presence would explain certain things discovered at the antopsy. Dr. R. H. Chittenden, who is conducting the chemical analysis, expects to finish it Sep- tember 5. The Malley cousins, Walter and James, were brought from jail to West Haven Movin morning, and C. K. Bush, attorney for the state, asked for a postponement of the case for murder against them, on the ground that they had not yet got the result of the analysis or all the evidence necessary to connect the accused with such result. After lengthy arguments, Justice Booth decided to grant the postpone- ment for two weeks. The counsel for the pris- oners asked that they be admitted ¢o bail. Justice Booth decided to consult State’s Attor- ney Doolittle on this cision. Point, and reserved his de- AT THE INQUEST, two of the witnesses testified that bard thought James Malley, who was pointed out to them, was the man they saw in the grove with Jennie Cramer Friday evening. The clerks in Malley’s store who keep the time-book testified that James Malley’s time was marked full on Wednes- day, Thursday and Friday, August 3, 4 and 5. James han, coachman for Edward Malley, testified that Malley had nine horses, three of which Edward and his son used for driving pur- poses. Michael Malley drove out with one on Friday afternoon, A 5, returning about 10:30. Walter drove out with his the same evening, returning about 11. Didn't know what time he left. The coachman denied having told Chas. J. Wilson on Saturday, A 6, that he was about sick, having been up the greater part of the previous night waiting for the return of the horses. ——__-______ A Wholesome Beverage. ‘From Food and Heaith. Watermelon contains about 95 per cent of the purest of water, and a trace of the purest of sugar, and nothing has yet been discovered that furnishes so fect and speedy a “cure” for summer complaint as watermelon, and nothing else.

A YOUNG ENGLISHMAN ARRESTED ON HIS ARRIVAL A Philadelphia prob eypin id U he pon the ar- rival —— oe Line steamship Pennsyl- vania morning a young Englishman, named Joseph , Satara was brought to shore in charge of a detective, who had arrested him in se toa t from England, re- ceived by the chiefof police, charging Bramp- ton, alias Henry Searle, with forgeries com- mitted in _Gramsby, Lincolnshire, England. He was traveling in company with a woman calling herself Harriet Clayton. When the yourg man was informed of his arrest he manifested little concern, but the woman looked upon the mat- ter more seriously, and was in tears during the remainder of her journey. The steamship reached her dock about 10 o'clock, when the baggage of the prisoners was found to consist of two well-packed tin tranks, two weighty boxes, four valises and a number of small pack- ages, the labels of some of them bearing the name Mr. A. Searle, and others Mr. H. Searle. Upon reaching the central station both man and woman were searched, in accordance with the telegraphic directions. Brampton had £36 in | gold, but the woman had nothing of value. In answer to a cablegram informing him of the ar- rest of the parties, the superintendent of police at Grameby, England, states that officers will the discharge of the woman and the holding of from’ cnstody. whose paseage was paid by Brampton, is at the Bingham House. He had but 19 cents in his possession. He and the female are said to be istant connections of Brampton. Brampton was arraigned at the central sta- tion. Philadelphia, Saturday afternoon. The prisoner had nothing to say in his defence, and was committed to await the arrival of extradi- tion papers. ——_——_+e-_____ The Sprague Troubles. A NEW VERSION OF THE SHOTGUN STORY. The Boston oo the following, tele- graphed from Providence, R. 1: Winchester Britton, Mrs. Sprague’s lawyer, in a recent in- terview on the shotgun affair at Canonchet said that from his own knowledge Mr. Conkling had been missey ited. The latter had made a statement to him which, until disproved, he was bound to consider asa correct version of the epigode. Mr. Conkling, he said, was in a sleep- ing apartment over the veranda when he heard creep one sane ig “He's got three charges he his gun,” and, glanciag out of the window, he saw the German tutor, Linke, going off ‘the mises by the back room, pursued by sy er, Conkling met Sprague. The latter had been’ down ‘towards the pier just returned. Conkling said: what makes you behave so. You act like a crazy man.” Sprague, so Mr. Brit- ton said, threw his arms in_the air and went off on a tangent about ‘ity and of his being incarcerated as a madman. Mr. Conk- ling was not menaced with a shotgun, and left Canonchet ina quiet, peaceable way. He did not know until afterward what made the gov- ernor so irascible when the words “insane man” were uttered, learning from some one that talk had been le about Trustee Chatlee causing Sprague to be shut up on the ground of innacy. 'r. Britton further averred that Conkling went to Canonchet on Sprague’s own business affairs, and that that alone was the reason of his being there. In regard to the divorce. Mr. Britton said that a large number of depositions had been taken, tending to support the allegations of adultery against the governor, which were of such a nature that Sprague could not refute them. They had not been filed as yet, nor would they be until the date of the trial had been as- signed; then they would become part of the records. Against these depositions the gov- ernor could make no defense. The evidence was as damning as it was undeniable. ——— Dvénedimmetomes The Dynamite Council. O'DONAVAN ROSSA’S MANIFESTO.
