CITY AND DISTRICT. —__»__ DEPARTMENT DROMIOS. ‘Two Officials Who Are Often Mistaken One for the Other. ‘Thestriking similarity in the appearance of Attor- ney General Garland and First Controller Durham 4s the subject of much comment among their friends and has caused many laughable mistakes. Both officials are over six feet tall, have their faces cleanly shaven, are rugged tn feature, wear Diack slouch hats, and are beyond an insinuation of being dudish in appearance. The Kentucky controller is somewhat the larger of the two, but the difference in size 1s not noticed when they are ‘not together. Each 1s an admirer of the other, in the bottom of his heart,but the frequent mistakes ‘which have been made in taking one for the ‘other have offered opportunities for pretended in- digaation. One afternoon after Judge Durham's appolntment, Secretary Manning sent for him about some business, “When 1t was concluded, ‘Did you know Garland has resigned?” exclaimed the astonished —controtler, “what's the matter?” (this was before the Pan- electric developments.) “He said he wouldn't be insulted any more by Deing taken for you,” sald the Secretary. “So he wrote out his resignation and handed it to the President.” ‘The controler laughingly said he would get even with him. When Judge Durham was mar- wed to a Kentucky lady, some time ago, the Attor- ney General told him that he hoped Mrs. Durham ‘Wouldn't be making any mistakes around tow for it migut be embarrassing. ‘The controller sal he would see to it that nosuch mistakes were made. A few days afterwards Judge and Mrs. Durham met the Attorney General while out walk- ang. Look here, Mr. Garland,” sala Mra. Durham, “T understand that my husband fs frequently mis- Taken for you. I don’t see how it is possible,” Hooking him in the face); “it's am insult to Judge ane ‘The Attorney General hadn’t a word to say. Not long ago the Attorney General was riding in a street car for the second tme since he has been ip the cabinet. He was the only Tr. AS ‘Whe car swung around the corner at the Epbitt a handsomely dressed, middle-aged lady entered, and with a pleasant Smile exclaimed: “Why, C onel, how do you do? I haven't seen you for ever ‘80 long.” “Tain pretty well,” replied, the Attorney Gen- vera, “but T am not colonel.” “f beg your pardon,” interrupted the lady, “I thought it was Col. Dirham.” “1 know you Mid,” sald the Attorney General; “that’s the trouble.” “Well, you needn't beso offended; Col. Durham 1s.a mighty niceman.” “I won't stand It any longer,” muttered the At- ‘Yorney General, and,straightenihg up, heexclatmed Ym grandiloquent ‘tones: “Madam,’ have you a husband or a brother who will defend you? If so, ‘Yell him that my name is Garland, and that I lve at —, and that I will fight rather than be mis- Yaken for that man from Kentucky.” ‘The lady recognized the name, and enjoyed the ke hugely.

A man Jumped off the car the other day to ek the first controller about a matter pending tn ‘he Department of Justice, and the Attorney Gene~ Fal Was stopped on 15th Street and asked about a case awaiting action by the controller. SS ‘Wanted the Devil Driven from His ‘Heart. BUT AFTER PRAYING BE CUT HIS WIFE WITH A PEN- KNIFE. About a month ago Mra Elizabeth O'Connor came to this city from Culpeper, Va., and has stnce been living with her eight children on the Bla- Sensburg Toad, stating that on account of the treatment she received from her husband she re- fused to live with him. Thanksgiving day, she Bays, he called at the house, abused his wife, and Fan After her with a loadedrevolver. OfMicer Slack Uisarmed him, and his wife not wanting to prose- cute him he’ was not arrested. Last’ Friday afternoon he returned to the house, and said he had been told by the priest that his wife was wil- Ang for him to return. This Mrs. O'Connor dented, and after getting a cup of tea he wanted one of his little sons to pray with him that. the devil night be driven from his heart. The little fellow Fefused, and the father prayed alone. Then ‘Went up stairs and called his children up, as thi Yhought, to lock them up, but they refused to zo ‘up, and In a few minutes he came down stairs and found his wife at the sewing-machine. He made Plunge at her with an open penknife and stabbed er On the hip. She fell, and he again made for her, when his littie son went to his mother's res. €ue'and assisted her to eseape from him. Later im The evening Officer Slick arrested O'Connor, and he admitted doing the cutting. He sald he was only sorry he had not been let alone a few min- ‘Utes, So that he could have cut hisown throat, Saturday, in the Police Court, O'Connor was ar Taigned On a charge of assiult, to which he pleaded guilty.

Pennsylvania avenue had rather a strange ap- Pearance Saturday night, with the ¢abs, car- Mages and vehicles of every description forming an almost unbroken line up and down on the street car tracks. The light and dry snow which Was falling rendered travel dangerous upon the conerete pavement. Every little while the ears of pedestrians would be assailed by a rattling of fron, a “gee hawing” and “whoaing,” accompa- nied by amateur flashes of lightning as the 1ron- clad hoots of the horses assaulted the stones in ‘the track tn their endeavor to maintain their ¢quutbrium, then a moment's silence, followed by ‘the downfall of some poor overloaded horse. Fifteenth street, from the Avenue to New York avenue, Was an espectally fertile Neld for such ac eldents. Nor did the pedestrians escape the fate of many of the beasts of burd it became common to see ladies or gentlemen frantically waving thelr arms to prevent an ungraceful sit tng-down on the slippery sidewalks. ‘Old settlers as {hey passed tn front of Willard's hotel gave the building great leeway, sheering off as they ap- roached it, and elther walking close to the tree- oxes or else entirely in the street. This spot is especially jus in such weather, because the Pavement has such & smooth or glassy surface, and its decline from the hotel to the curb 4s so great that 1t would almost require the faculty’ of a ‘tight-rope performer to a distance of ten feet without “taking a tumble.” On 14th street, between New York avenue and if ‘street, a wagon load of hay collapsed in the mid- dle of'the car tracks, blockading the cars for some Uittie time. The spectacle of a horse a heavy load up one of these hills of glass, is legs pawing and sliding on the street as he essayed to maintain his foothold was, in many cases, truly pitiful; and several warm-hearted ladies, when looking at such a sight, would pityingly exclaim, {LOOK at tat poor horge's legst See how they are trembling? and. then they Indignantly asked of somebody of the masculine gender, “Where are the officers of the Humane society, and why ain't they here to stop the travel up this hill?” Around the many sliding plates improvised by the street gamin smnall knots of men. gathered to look on, and smiled at the sport. Many, too, of the older generation, as they 2pproached these “slides,” would trip mincingly along, halting a Iit- tie as they neared it, until getting up their cour age they would expand thetr legs and mouths and go sliding down, to the intense interest and amuse- ment of the le&s courageous lookers on. ‘There were dudes, with English great-coats and canes, who ‘would silde over the slippery ptaces With a Sort of a "Us-funny-don’t-cher-know expres sion of countenance. CLUVERIUS’ STATEMENTS. ASimple Detail of His Movements on the Day Miss Madison Died. Cluvertus, the condemned murderer of Fannie Lillian Madison, filed with Gov. Lee at Richmond Saturday by his brother, Wm. L. Cluverius, his statement regarding his movements on the day on Which his cousin met her death, ‘The prisoner describes his movements from the time he jeft the Davis House, at 9 o'clock in the morning of March 13, 1885, some time during the evening of that day ‘Miss Madison having met her death, until 2 o'clock in theafternoon. Between % and 2he was engaged with business affairs about town, but that time is not important as Miss Madison was alive, it 1s known, until late that afternoon, His statement from that hour 1s as follows: “At 2 o'clock went to the Dime Museum, where I saw T. B. Bagby; left there about 5 or half-past 5, at the elose of the performance and went up 7th street above Broad, to a barber shop and got shaved. Coming back ought a copy of the State on the street, Came to the Davis House and went in the dining room, read also the New York papers there, ‘went to iny room, brushed hafr, etc.; came down, ‘ot Supper, and lett at 8 o'clock; WeMt to Ford's jotel to see if Pollard was there.” I wanted to see him, as he was looking after some papers in the bankrupt court that TI wanted.

In addition to the statement he sent to the gov- ernor his personal review of the evidence in the case to show that there was not sufficient proof of | murder having been committed, but that the death of Miss Madison was the result of suicide; and he attributed his conviction largely to popular clamor. ‘The prisoner also flied with the governor several affidavits of jurors declaring that they did not Know that they could find a verdict of murder in the second degree; also affidavits that F. A. Howell, one of had declared before being summoned as a juror that he (the prisoner) should be hung. Accorpanying these papers was a letter from the father and the mother of the prisoner appealing in pathetic terms to the gov- ‘ernor to exercise executive clemency toward their son. ——s00—— Desperate Fight With a Cattle Thief. {HE ESCAPES WITH BOTH ARMS BROKEN AND IS FINALLY SHOT DEAD. Capt. Arrington, sheriff of Wheeler county, Tex., accompanied by C. B. Wellingham, superin- tendent of the Harsiord Land and Cattle Company, started November 28th to arrest John Leverton and James Wells fgr stealing cattle belonging to the Turkey Track ranch. Dec. Ist they arrived at the little cabin occu- pled by Leverton, 100 miles from Mobeetie. When they entered, Leverton, grabbing his gun, almed tt at the captain. Arrington was too quick for him and broke his arm with a shot from his revolver. In falling Leverton’s gun was discharged, and thé ball struck Mr. Wellingham three inciles above the Knee, inilicting a painful wound. ~ Leverton then grabbed lis gun with his left hand, and tired three more shots, one of which passed through the iKerchiet Capt. Arrington wore around his heck. ‘The captain thea broke Leverton’s other arm With a second shot from his revolver. Lever ton serambled to his feet and made his exit by a Tear door, and Was 100 yards from the cabin when the captain saw him, and thinking himto be Wells, shot and killed him almostinstantly. Wells was Captured afew les from there, near the Canadian river. Leverton was an old Chicago ¢rook, and Wells ts said to have come from New York. ‘The: Hawley’s Seat in Danger. KNIGHTS OF LABOK AND DEMOCRATS WILL UNITE ON BIGELOW. A prominent politician of Hartford is quoted by a New York Herald correspondent as saying that ‘twenty-two Knights of Labor elected to the Con- necticut legislature as republicans had pledged themselves to vote for ex-Governor H. B. Bigelow for Senator, and that Mr. Bigelow had consented to allow his name to be voted for whencalled upon by a committee of the knights, ‘This information will cause Intense political ex- citement throughout the state. ‘There ts no doubt Of its accuracy, and It portends the defeat of Mr. Hawley.

ANOTHER EFFORT TO SE MADE IN FAVOR OF THE MOVEMENT. ‘The eight-hour movement 1s not destined to rest, but will again agitate the labor world. ‘The place of beginning will again be the congress of fede- rated trades Which meets at Columbus, Ohio, this week, and the ball will be started by Edward Mulvaney, the delegate from the Chicago ‘Trades Assembly, Who Will introiuce a plan covering, as he thinks, most of the points which led to the fail- Ure of the last eight-hour movement. A Chicago dispatch says: Mis plan will be for all trades hav- ing national organizations to adopt the eight-hour day in thetr particular trade in all of the country at the same tims. The trades can either ‘act In Concert or one after another, as they see fit, the main point Detng that when’ eight hours 1S demanded in one city it shall be also demanded at all competing points. ‘The co-operation of the Knights of Labor, not as a whole, but in the dis- tinct trades orgahized as such in’ that order, will also be nequested in this plan. ‘The second portion of Mr. Mulvaney's plan is for the trades to keep thelr Wages exactly as they now are; that 1s, when the men work elght hours to ask but. eight hours’ pay, allowing the question of an advance to settle itselt by supply and demand. ‘This will be particularly insisted upon as one of the most important features of the movement. ‘Oansuns on Taxie WaY To Awxnica.—Wallace Ross and George Lee, the well-known sailed on the steamer ‘Alaska from London Satur. day for New York.

IPCLELLAN’S OWN STORY. McClellan and the Leaddrs—His Denun- . Ciation of Secretary Stahhton—How He Lest Command of the Army—Stories ‘Told by President Lincoln, ‘The following are extracts fromtGen. McClellan's memoirs, published to-day : “It 1s perhaps hardly worth whfle to notice here any of those unfounded slandets which some Papers uttered concerning me; tliat is, the state ment that at the outbreak of the war I entertained offers to enter the southern service; I need only say that there was not the shadow af a foundation for this, The leading men of the Southern side knew perfectly well of all men I woul be the last to waver in my allegiance to the general govern- ment and its flag. GEN. GRANT'S GOOD LUCK. Gen. McClellan was receiving a salary of $10,000 year asa railroad president at the gutbreak of the war, but he resigned to take his chances as a soldier. He began his career in the west, and it Was during his absence at Indianapolis that Grant came to Cincinnati to ask him, as an old acquaint. ance, to give im employment’ or @ plage on his staff, Marcy or Seth Williams saw him ‘and told him that if he would await McClellan's return doubtless he would do something for him, but be- fore he got back he was tel that ‘he could ent, in Iiinots, and at once returned thither, 30 that Meck fd not see him. “This good luck,” (eClellan. “For had I been there I would no doubt have given him a Place on my staff, and he would probably have re- mained with me and shared my fate.” HIS TROUBLE WITH “RADICAL” LEADERS. Gon. McClellan's troubles with party leaders Degan almost as soon as he took command of the Army of the Potomac, and he has a good deal to say concerning their interference, Hesays: “Ihave already stated in a general way what occurred be- Ewen’ myself and’some of the radical. Teallers shortly after I reached Washington. ‘They then saw clearly that {t would not be possible to make party tool of me, and soon concluded that it Was thetr policy to ruin me, if possible, * * * The Teal object of the radical leaders was not the re- Storation of the Union, but the permanent a} cendancy of their party, and to this they wweie ready to sacrifice the Union, if necessary. They. committed a grave error’ in. supposing me fo. be politically ambitious: and. iu think- ing that I looked forward to military Success as a means Of reaching the presidential chair. At the same time they knew that itl achieved marked success my influence would necessarily be very great throughout the country — an influence which should certainly have used. for the good of the ‘whole country, and not for that of any party at the nation’s expense. They, therefore, determined to ruin me tn any event and by any means; first by endeavoring to force me into premature movements, knowing that a fall ‘ure would probably end my military career, atter- wards by withholding the means necessary to achieve success, That they were not honest 1s proved by the fact that, having fatled to force me advance at a time when an advance would have been madness, they withheld the means of success when I was in contact with the enemy, and finally relieved me trom command when the game Wasinmy hands. ‘Taking both east and West and counting the losses also by disease I do not doubt that more than 500,000. of men were Sacrificed unnecessarfly for the sake of insuring ‘the success of a political party. do not base mny assertions as to the motives of the radical leaders upon mere surm! but upon facts that have frequently come to my knowledge during the war and since. For, instance, Major Charles Davies, once professor of mathematics at West Point, told me, and at a different time told Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, the following sto During the very early part of the peninsular cam- ign he was one of ‘a commission sent trom New Yorx to urge more vigorous action tn Repose me, They called upon the President, and fount Mr. Stanton with him, In reply to their statements of the purpose of their visit Mr. inton stated that the great end and aim of the war was to ab ish ery. To end the ir before the nation Ww: ready for that would be a failure. The war must be prolonged and conducted so as to achieve that that the people of the north were not yet ready to accept the view, and that it would not answer to permit me to succeed until the people had been worked up to the proper pitch on that question; that the war would not be finished tll that result wi ached, and that, therefore, {t was not. their policy to strengthen General McClellan so as Uo insure his success,” HIS ARRAIGNMENT OF STANTON. “From the light that has since been thrown on Stanton’s character I am satisfied that from an early date he was In the treasonable conspiracy, and that his course in ingratiating himself with me, and pretending to be my friend before he was tn oftice, only a part of his long system of treachery, I had never seen Mr. Stanton, and probably had not even heard of him before feach- ing Washington in 1861. Not many weeks after arriving I Was introduced to him as a safe adviser al points. Ft ‘hat moment he did his best to ingrattate hi ey professed the warmest friendship and devotion. son tO suspect hi 1 had sincerity, and. there- believed him to be what he professed. ‘The most disagreeable thing about him’ was the extreme virulence with which he abused the President, the administration and the republl- n party. He carried this to such an extent that I was often shocked by It. He never spoke of the President in any way than as the ‘Original Gorilla,’ and often sald that Du Chaillu was fool to. wan- der all the way to Afrtea in search of what he could so easily have found at Springtield, Il. Noth- ing could be more bitter than bis words and man- ner always were when speaking on the administ tion and the republican party. He never gave them credit for honesty or patriotism, and very seldom for any ability. “At some time during the autumn of 1861 Sec- retary Cameron made quite an abolition speech to some of the newly arrived regiment. Next day Stanton urged ine to arrest htm for inciting to in- subordination, He often advocated the propriety ofmy seizing the government and taking affairs into my own hands. “as he always expressed himself in favor of put- tng down the rebellion at any cost, I always re- garded these extreme views as the ebullitions of intense and patriotic nature, and sometimes sted more or less time In endeavoring to bring him to more moderate views, never dreaming that all the while this tan was in close communtca- tion with the very men whom he so violently abused. Hs purpose was to endeavor to climb upon my shoulders and then throw me down.” ‘Mr. Stanton’s action at the time of his ment is thus described: wed my tollet Mr, Stanton’s card came up, and as soon at possible I went down to see hin. “He told me that he had been appointed Secretary of War and thas his name had been sent to the Senate tor confi mation and that he had called to confer with me a8 to his acceptance, He sald that acceptance would involve very great personal Sacrifices on hts art. If 1 wished hiin to accept he would do so, mut Only On my account; that he had cometo know. ty Wishes and determine accordingly. I told him that hoped he would accept tie’ position. Before he was in office he constantly ran after me and professed the most ardent friendship; as soon as he became Secretary of War his Whole manner changed, and I could no longer find the opportunity “to transact even the ordinary current business of the oMce with him. It is now very clear to me that, far from being, as he had always represented himself to me, in direct and violent opposition to the radi- cal’, he was really in seeret alliance with. then and that he and they Were alike unwilling that { should be successful. No other theory can possl- bly account for his or thelr course, and on’ that theory everything becomes clear and easily ex- plained.” HIS RELATIONS WITH LINCOLN. Of his relations with the President, Gen. McClel- lan says: “My relations with Mr. Lincoln were generally very pleasant, and I seldom had trouble with him when we could meet face to face. dificulty always arose behind my back. I bell he Uked me personally, and certainly he was much influenced. by ‘me When we were together. During the. early part of my command in Washington he often consulted with me before taking important steps or appotnting general officers. * © * He sald that he knew Stanton to be a friend of mine and assumed that I would be glad to have in Secretary of War, and that he feured that it he had told me beforehand some of those fellows would say that I had dragooned him into it. Ofticially, my assoclation with the President was very close until the severe attack of fliness in De- cember, 1861. I was often sent for to attend formal and informal cabinet meetings, and at all hours when the President desired to consult with me on any subject, and he often came tomy house, frequently laté at night, to learn the last news before retiring. His fame as a narrator of ‘anecdotes was fully deserved, and he always had ‘something apropos on the spur of the moment.” SENDING M’DOWELL'S CORPS TO POPE. From McClellan's letter to his wife: “While Ustening this p. m. to the sound of the guns I re~ ceived an order detaching McDowell’s corps from my command. It is the most infamous thing that: bistery has recorded. I have made sueh repre- {ations as will probably induce a revocation of Ug order, or at least save Franklin to me. ‘The idea of dépriving a general of 35,000 troops when actually under fire!” wwTul row about April 8, $ a.m.—I have ratsed an.

"APTER THE SEVEN DAYS? FIGHT. After the seven days’ fight McClellan wrote to Stanton: “In addition to what I have already said, I only wish tosay to the President that I think he 1s wrong in regarding me.as TOUS When said that my force was took weak. f merely intimated a truth which to-day has been too plainly proved.

Ido not ‘secesh will catch me very badly.” AFTER ANTIETAM ‘MoClellan wrote to his wife: “Do you know that I have not heard one word from Halleck, the Presi- dent nor the Secretary of War about the last great Dattle? All, except fault-finding, that I have had since leaving Washington was one from the Prest- dent about the Sunday battle, in which he says: ‘God bless you and all with you.” That is all I avg; but plenty from Halleck, couched tn almost ins language and_prophes isaster. telographed im'last night that 1 regretted the uniformly faultfinding tone of his dispatches, and that he had not as yet found leisure to notice the recent achievements of my army. * * *” HIS LAST TALK WITH LINCOLN. Of his last conversation with Lincoin General McClellan gives this account: “On the first day of October his .excellency, the President, honored the Army of the Potomac with avisit, ahd remained several days, during which he went through the different encampments, re- viewed the troops and went over the Dattle-1elds of South Mountain and Antietam. Thad the o portunity during this visit to describe to nim the operations of the army since the time it left Wash- ington, and gave him my reasons for not following the enémy after he crossed the Potomac. He more than once assured me that, he was fully satisfied with my whole course from the beginning: that the only fault he could find was that Fas, perhaps, too prone to be, ‘sure that everything was rea acting, but that my’ actions were all right when I started. I said to him that I thought a few experiments with those who acted before they were ready would probably convince him that in the end I consumed less time than they did. He told me that he regarded meas the only general in the service capable of 01 ing and commanding a large army, and that he would stand by me. We parted on the fleld of South Mountain, whither [had accompanied him, He said there ‘that he did not see how we ever ained that field, and that he was sure that if I ad defended it Lée could never have carried it, He parted from me with the utmost cordiality, “We ‘ever met again on this earth.” E MCLELLAN'S REMOVAL, ‘These extracts may be fittingly brought to a. close with McClellan's account of his removal from command and its attending circumstances: “When we broke up the camps on the upper Potomac and moved in advance, the army was in fine order for another battle, the troops in the best of spirits, full of confidence tn me, and_I was then, I believe, capable of handling an army in the field as I had never been before, ‘felt that I could fght a great batéle, ‘The march was admirably conducted, and 1s worthy of study. In the course of the 7th of No- vember I heard incidentally that a special train had brought out from Washington Gen. Bucking- ham, who had left the railway very near our camp, and, without coming to see me, had proceéded “through a driving snow storm several miles to Burnside’s camp. Tat once suspected that he brought the order re- Meving. me from command, but I kept my own counsel, Late at night, I was sitting alone in my tent writing to my wife, All the staff were asleep, Suddenly some one knockd upon the tent pole, and upon my invitation to enter there appeared Burn- ide and Buckingham, both looking very solemn. I received them Kindly and commenced conversa- tion upoa general subjects in the most uncon- cerned manner possible. After a few moments Buckingham said to Burnside: ‘Well, General, I think that we had better tell General Meclellan the object of our visit.’ I very pleasantly sald that I should be glad to learn it. Whereupon Buckingham handed me the two orders of- which May saw that both. tally hi “T saw that ally Buekingham— were watching me most intently while opened and read the orders. I read the papers with a smile, immediately turned to Burnside, and sald: ‘well, Burnside, I turn the command over to you.” Lasssurcz & Bro.
