Hamlink in Anstralia—A Charge that He Raised a Loan on Worthless Secnrities and then Sailed Away—A Sequel to the Anglo-American Insur- ance Company's Failare. Just before the Anglo-American Insurance company closed its doors in this elty afew months ago and it was discovered that the company had no assets, except the office farni- ture, the secretary of the company, D. F. Ham- link, left the elty tor Australia, Advices re- celved here are to the effect that he has sailed from Australia and left behind him nothing but unpleasant memories. Hamlink was totro- duced Just before his departure from this city to Capt. J. W. Bradford, ot 628 Rhode Island avenue. Capt. Bradford left Ireland, his place of nativity, when a small boy and came to this country. "He had an older _ brother, who ‘some years before had gone to Australia, In the course of time the brothers i track of €: other. Last winter Captain rd wrote to Syduey, Australia, address the letter so thut it would fall intothe nands his brother or bis sons, it they were alive. letter resulted in discovering that his brother was dead, but that he had in Australia quail large colony of nephews and nieces, With these newly discovered relatives Captain Bradford opened correspondence, Hamlink was iutroduced to Capt, Bradford by a friend, In whom the latter had coufidence,for the purpose of obtaining letter of futroduction. Hamlin has been heard trom through a jeter just re- d by Capt. Bradford “trom his nephews, David and Robert Bradford, who are engaged in business in Syduey as iron founders, HOW THEY WERE TAKEN 1 ‘The letter says: “Colonel Hamlink, whom you introduced to us in such a nice way, bas simply run away from Sydney with £955 of our money, leaving us securities—bonds of the An- xlo-Atieriean insurance company, not worth one singie —; and we have every reason to believe that we are not the only unfortunates. ing was done 1s ating your letter this: The Cole of introduction to us, was received as. well. by el, alter pres us as we could, and, after many interchanges, he spoke to usin a confidential manner, olfer= ing us, and he actually did write out @ legal document giving us, a one-third interest in a newiy-discovered telephone. This, we find out now, was only @ sprat to catch a imackerel, as the telephone, if 1t was iu existence, was hot in bis power to treat for. After doing this “he said he wanted an advance, having paid so mueh money away, and asked Brother David if he could introduce him to some banker where he could get the required overdraft of £1,000, @ffering as security £2,000, (but whether it was genuiue or not, we cannot how say.) Sydney being in such a depressed state, the bagk iauager did not care about opening any new accounts. We then intro- duced him toour own bank manager, with a similar result, As w lust resource, he’ told us (confidentially) that_he was a man of means, and had all bis money on deposit in America to keep his wife and family, and that he knew BROUGHT GooD SECURITIES with him, und that he promised to send money home to Turnbull, the inventor of the telephone, as it was not completed when he left home. At the same time he handed us two newspapers, with a fuil account of the wonders of this inven tion. He toid us also that it was not the in- Suranee company that brought him out here, butit was wo work and introduce this wonder: ful telephone into the Australian colonies, thereby expecting to make £200,000. On the strength o: our believing such,'and we did. believe him aiter your speaking so highly of him, he asked us ‘if we could iend him the money, viz, £1,000, and as our name has always’ been good to that extent in commercial circles here, we had no difficulty in duding the cash for bim, (that is by our giv- yur own bills to others for the mouey,) and in return he gave us as security twelve of the | enclosed bonds, or coupons, said to be worth | £100cach, and payable in London, but worth | nota—, as you will see by the printed note namely £355, he got from us the day he left for Meibourne, telling us then that he bad to go to Melbourne’ on this telephone business “and would be back in 14 or 21 days, but he has not shown up to this date, (Sept. 3,) and it is now four weeks from the time he said he would show up. HE SAILS AWAY. The teller states that on further inquiry they had been informed that Hamlink bad ‘sailed two days alter reaching Melbourne for the Mauritius, and that the banks in Sydney had received a cabiegram from London that the insurance company was a complete swindle. ‘The writers also have reported the facts to Mr. Griffin, U.S. consul at Sydaey, who was about to come ‘to this country, aud who promised them to Investigate the Case. The enciosure is asample of one of the twelve bonds leit as security. It is a bond given by the Anglo- American insurance company for £100 at SIX per cent. interest, payable ut the banking house ‘of Messrs.

HE ALSO ACCEPTS IRVING HALL'S NOMINA- ‘Tio! Henry George replied yesterday to Mr. Hew- itt’s letter declining to join him in a public dis- cussion, Mr. George in his letter says he regrets Mr. Hewitt’s decision in the matter. He does not cgree with Mr. Hewitt that the questions at issue in the present campaign “are sufficiently understood by the people.” Mr. George charges Mr, Hewitt with deliberately misrepresenting his doctrines, und says Mr. Hewitt's course is “analogous to hitting foul in pugilisin.” Con- | cerning Mr. Hewitt’s suggestion tuut Mr. George should go to Congress to alr his opinions, Mr. George ‘says that he could no more aspire to become @ member of Congress trom the city of New York than he could be to become a mem- ber of the British house of lords, unless he were to sell his soul in advance to sume rich corpura- ton that would put up the money for his elec- Uon and clvim bis congressional vote as that of their bonded servant. He asks Mr. Hewitt whether it did not cst him a great deal of money to run, and adds: “Is it uot true, Mr. Hewitt, that you buve in this way, and every | time, bought the seat wuich you have held and that What you have thus reaily represented nas been your money und the political orguniza- tions that buy nd sell votes?” Mr. George mentions the alleged practi buying votes on election day, and says: Jaultin such cases we may say, with large de- gree of truth, is In the system ‘rather than in the man, But what shall we say of the man, | rich, educated, able, who, when a great vody of | his fellow citizens make an effort w break up such w system, permits himseli w be used as a figurehead by ‘banded prootoriaus, bent on put- Ung down such u revolt against their metuous, and who, refustug frank discussion upon issues he himscit has ‘raised, uppeuls to prejudice and passion, and invokes his guod reputation to cloak thelr real designs?” Inconclusion Mr. George says: “My friends have hired Chicker- ing hall for Friday evening next. If it suits you to come there I shail be buppy to give you one-bulf of my time. If not, I sail answer the objections which you have mude, and such otner objections as may be presented by those who shure your views und who may choose to appear In person and ask questious or make oujections on any matters ol principle regurd- ing the issue you have raised.” Messrs.

A special to the Baltimore American from Parkersburg, West Va., October 20th, says: Mt. Pleasant, a village in Ohio notmany miles trom here, was the scene Monday night of a inost ter- rible outrage. About midnight six masked armed men went to the house of a wealthy citizen named Parker, and with rails and axes beat down the door and gained an entrance. The only inmates of the house were Mr. Par ker, an old mun, and anelderly lady who keeps house for them. They nad both reuired when the muskers made thelr entrance. Ina mo- ment they were dragged from their beds, and partly bound with ropes. Then the robbers de- manded ot Parker where his money was, and when after various threats he refused to tell,the: applied lighted pteces of paper to the lands and feet of both Parker and the woman, with # flendishness that savored of the middle ages. They continued to torture these poor creatures until their hands, feet and limbs were terribly burned. Finding Parker immovable, they ransacked every part of the premises, and not discovering thé money, they bound the parties hand and toot, put gags in their mouths and then leit, taking with them a rifle and revolver beloning to Parker. About tweive hours atter elghbors passing saw the house with the door mashed in, and yoing lu un.oosed the victims, who were almost dead. Parker is so old and his wounds §0 serious that he Is not expected to re- cover. The woman {s not fataily injured, though her feet und hands are horribly burned, A band of indignant citizens stared ip pursult Of the robbers, but us yet they have not been ap- prehended. * —s00 Unity of the Churches. A MESSAGE FROM THE P. F. BISHOPS, In the house of deputies of the P. E. conven- tion at Chicago yesterday a mexs ge of asignifi- cant aature considering the conservative char acter of the Episcopal body was received from the house of bishops.

Schofield, To Contest Tiiden's Wi GEORGE H, TILDEN WILL BE THE PLAINTIFE IX THE suit. From the New York Son. When the heirs of Mr. Tilden first talked of contesting his will, soon after his death, the plan proposed was for George H. Tilden to ap- pear as sole plaintiff. This, uuder the will, would involve the loss of bis $75,000, but the other heirs were to agree to make it up to him In case the will was not overthrown. This jan was abandoned. Tnen the creditors of he Tilden boys made things so uncomtortable for them that they were compelled to do some- thing. ‘The creditors ‘said there was no chance of their getting their $240,000 unless the will was broken, and urged the boys to make the attempt. Various plans were talked. of, and finally it was agreed that the Tildens should confess judgment on their debts, that a Tecelver should, be appointed, and ttiat he, having acquired all the rights of the heirs, should contest the will. In pursuance of this plan judgments were entered up for the full amount. Then there was another change of front, and it was decided to go back to the original plan as the simplest and best. IL is now arranged that Geo. H. Tilden shall be the plainuiff. A gentleman famitiar with the case suid that the creditors have agreed to Dear the legal expenses of the sult, and the other heirs have ag: jo make orge’s $45,000 If the sult talls.

Samuel and George refurned to New Lebunon in tbe atternoon. It was the intention to have served a notice of contest on the executors yesterday, but for some reason the service was postponed. The notice will be served very soon, and the executors will be enjoined, if possible, from proceeding under the will of disposing of any property. “The ground of contest will be that the clause constituting the general trust is invalld because of indefiniteness. The heirs do not think George will lose his $75,000, as they believe the clause impusing this penalty for opposing the will is inoperative under the law. ——_—+-e+_____ Second Day at Pimlico.
