VOICES FROM THE TOMBS, Interviews with James C. King and John Scannell. King Dying with the Spectre of the Gallows Before Him---A Heartrending Spectacle, WHAT JOHN SCANNELL SAYS. He Feels Innocent as a Babe and Very Happy—He Would Rather Hang Than Go to Prison. ‘A Heravp reporter saw James 0. King yester- day, He was in his cell in the Tombs, where he ‘will probably remain until he dies of consumption oris hanged. What @ sad fate! Young, happy, prosperous, beloved by his children, devoted to his wife, with the prospect of a long life before him, he is suddenly thrown into prison. He is shut out from the pure air of heaven, separated from those he loves, and a terrivle spectre rises up before bhim—the gallows! No happy evenings by the fire- side, no fond associations with his children, no honorable pursuits that would make him respected among his fellow men, but death—ignominious, shameful, disgraceful death. That isnotall, He pines in his cell—thoughts of his disgrace come over. him. He becomes sick; he has the consump- Tioy, and day by day his vigorous frame is wasted ‘away by the fever that consumes him. And no one near, No kind hand to smooth his pillow, no familiar voice to speak to him, no loving arm to C STEAL AROUND HIB NECK. - Alone, forsaken, forgotten, with but one hope which cannot fail—death. It is terrible to think of dying on the gallows; but die he must, and death willend his sufferings. The cell in which King is confined 1s cheerfully fittea up. A handsome carpet, a table covered with flowers, anumber of books and magazines, pictures on the wail, all these give it a comfortable ppearance. The light that steals through the chink in.the wall and slants on the bed is bright, and were it not for the heavy iron bars you would fancy yourself in some pleasant little room occu- pied by some modest young pachelor. King lay on is bed. His face was worn with sickness, It was white, his lips were pale and feverish, his sunken eyes had a wan look that was infinitely sad. He loeked thin, weary, heavy at heart. As he spoke his lips shook and his breast heaved, and every now and then he sighed. Never will the reporter forget those sighs of anguish, that must have struck deep at the heart of the most indifferent listener. King was so sick that he was scarcely able to Speak, His utterance was A FEVERISH, FAINT BREATHING, ‘and‘it was with tne greatest diMculty that the re- Porter could catch the sounds, As the reporter addressed him King raised himself slightly in bed. “How are you to-day ?’ the reporter inquired. “Very well, thank you,” King said, feebly, and casting a long wistful look at the reporter. What astrange glance! It had an imploring, grateful expression, as though he was thankful for the Blightest mark of kindness. “This is a cheerless place to be in,” the reporter observed, King looked at him with his wan eyes. “Yes, in- aeed,’’ he said with a sigh, which he in vain en- deavored to suppress, and he added, with a forced gmile, “I am, indeed, a warrior. Am I not ?” The last query was addressed to Warden John- Bon, Who stood inside the cell administering kindly, as i8 bis wont, to the needs of the prisoner. Mr, Johnson acquiesced, and asked, “Are you able to drink your beef tea }”” King’s head sunk wearily on the pillow. ‘Yes,’’ he = faintly, “I can drink a little.” And he sighed. “The fair sex have not yet forsaken you,” the re- porter observed, pointing TO THE FLOWERS ON THE LITTLE TABLE. “Yes,"" King replied, with the same forced smile, “they don't forsake me.’ Alter a pause and ina pitter tone, “They have done enough for me— enough." “These are luxurious quarters,” the reporter Baid, jocosely. “Yes,” King answered, trying to look a little more cheertul; ‘‘I lived three weeks at the Grand Hotel in Paris, and this is almost like it.” “The doctors say you are getting along a little ‘better?”’ the reporter asked. He answered in the same low, weary tone, “About the same as yesterday.” He raised his head and wrung his nands, “Oh, if I could only get up from this (pointing at the bed) how happy I cwould be!” RevorTeR—You will probably recover? Kino (sadly shaking his head)—Oh, if one only health! It’s terrible to be sick. What visitation this is (with a resigned air)! But, per- ‘haps, it is all for the best. It might be worse. REPoRTER—You are right. Kine (slowly, wearily)—Perhaps one of my chil- dren might aie—it might be worse. Providence is ‘inscrutable, REPORTER—YOu have not lost all hope? Kine—No, no. I don’t think much about my Case (casting his eyes upwards), I am in the HANDS OF THE ALMIGHTY. The last words seemed to relieve him a little; his erticulation became more distinct. REPORTER—You have good lawyers; they will do mor you all they can. King (turning to & colored boy in the cell)— lease to open the window. I want to breathe the sh air i ‘gee jt peende weed good law- ers ani ve Imighty, an ve @ gopd Heal of confidence in both. He became weak and could speak no more. “I hall be giad to see you again,” he said, courteons- QSy—his manner is that of a thoroughbred gentle- man—as the reporter parted from him. The deor closed and King was again alone with his misery, AN INTERVIEW WITH JOHN SCANNELL, { The reporter turned to Scannei’s cell. John Beannel! was in his shirt sleeves and just about to Bhave himself. He greeted the reporter ete a “T have been very well, thank you,” ne said, In this heartiest voice and with his jolliest laugh; “1 pave read so much about prisons ana prison itfe, ut I’m sure I can’t see anything here that would affect a man’s health. I have gained syenty pounds since I have come here. See how fleshy jam getting to be.” And he beat his chest. REPoRTER—Your wife takes your fate very much to heart, does she not ? SCANNELL (hanging up his coat)—Oh, my wifeis a heroine; she is no baby. They don’t want an; babies here. My wife isa heroine. As for myself don't think about my case—not so much as you 10, a RePORTER—ANA still it must be disagreeable to Bwing. SCANNELL (laughing heartily)—Weill, I don’t Know how that would feel; I have NOT GOT THAT FAR YET. REPoRTER—Did you read the account of Foster’s execution? SCANNELL—Yes; but it didn’t affect me much. I have no sympathy with murderers—men who ‘take life without justification. I have no sym- ec with criminals, with thieves and such ople. Do you suppose any man in the Tombs fared a snap whether Foster was hung or not? A thief only cares for himself: he wouldn't care ifevery man in the Tombs were hung—every man ut himself. Repo rtainly. SCANNELL (in the same jolly strain)—I think he expected a reprieve up to the last moment. You ‘ead in novels of such things, but that is not what go for. I don’t go for a reprieve in the last mo- ment. Ofcourse, you're right, I don’t suppose it ‘is very agreeable to swing, Dut the man never wame back to tell how it felt. ' REPORTER—| never thought of that. SCANNELL—Oh, there have been such cases as re- suscitating dead men—men who were hanged—but that’s only what you read in novels, e most horrible thing in regard to hanging I ever read ‘was the description of the Jew’s last night upon earth in “Oliver Twist.” Of course, ity men ‘mpust have such horrible thoughts; but iiave none, nd never shall have any, because Tt HAVE A OLBAR CONSCIENCE.

The Victory Nearly Won by the Com- pany—The Strikers Recoming Despond- enut—Some of Them Petitioning To be Taken Back—Will the Company Re- employ Them ? The inevitable result of the strike of the gaa- men, which was presaged from the beginning, ia about to be realized im the victory of the New York Gas Company over their former employés. This became apparent yesterday, when Captain Tynan, of the Eighteenth precinct, received from a delegation of the strikera a petition, to which was affixed a long string of names—sev- enty-eight in all—asking the officers of the... company to re-engage them, at the same rates of pay and with the same time as has been all along conceded by the other companies to their laborers. Captain Tynan tates that from his observations while ‘coming in contact with the strikers he thinks that the ma- jority of them are very anxious to get back into thelr old employment without insisting any further upon the exactions which they have all along claimed. In conversations which a HeRaLp reporter had with certain of the strikers he learned that some of them were almost in total ignorance of the pe- tition said to have been signed and sent in due form to the company through Captain Tynan. They seemed, however, to be in A VERY DEPRESSED STATE OF MIND and did not know what their future course would be. It was evident that they were almost, if not quite, on the verge of Fer: mf the battle, and probably would gladly do so if they were ured of being again given employmeat and their old Wages. But they seem now to be impressed with the idea that their restoration to their former positions is no longer optional with themselve: since the new workmen have been introduced an have proved themselves capable of soon meeting the needs of the public as well as the old, A VISIT T0 THR GASWORKS was made yesterday, and it was founda that very comfortable quarters are provided for the work- men when resting from their toil, and that the ac- commodations for supplying them with food are juite civilized and quite adequate to their wants. The sleeping apartments are well ventilated. Through the windows, when they are opened, the fresh air from the river blows Jreely, and they are kept clean and healthy. None of the bunks are situated over the boilers, The President of the New York Gas Company said yesterday that the new laborers were becom- ing very eficient, Some of them were discharged from the works of the other companies, as is ugually the case every year upon the recurrence of the longer days of Spring and Summer, and, therefore, were already weil skilled in their work. He said that the petition above referred to had been received at the office. When asked what would be the action of the company regarding it, whether they would take back the old men or not, he answered that it was very improbable, as there were now NO VACANCIRS IN THE WORKS which required to be filled, and it would be unjust to the new workmen to discharge them to make room for the strikers. He expressed the utmost confidence in their power to su; ply their customers with a (ull quota of gas without any further change in their arrangements. This probable retention of the new workmen produces a new phase of the dlfficulty, which may possibly culminate in attempts at violence, since the continual and forced idleness of the strikers may make them desperate in their measures. The question which will now be most bitterly presented to them to answer is, ‘How are we to support our wives and children without work?” The conviction now is gaining ground among all interested parties, except a few of the most stub- porn of the atrikers, that the movement was begun without sufficient forethought and without weigh- ing the trials which it would throw upon its par- ticipants. It may prove, therefore, a very whole- gone lesson to the class ef men who are engaged it. THE LABOR QUESTION. Renewed Agitation for the Eight Hour Reform—Meeting of a General Trades Delegation Last Night. A meeting of a General Committee, composed of some fifty delegates, representing sixteen or sev- enteen different trades’ unions, was held at the Germania Assembly Rooms last night, for the pur- pose of discussing certain arrangements for a con- ference with the Mayor, the Comptroller and other heads of the municipal government in regard to the enforcement of a certain State law, known as the Eight Hour law. Although the chances of a suc- cessful renewal of a general eight hour strike are few this Spring efforts will not de lacking on the partof the trades’ unions, influencd, as they are by the “Internationals,” to press their fa- vorite scheme of enforcing the eight hour labor system, and they look upon the municipal govern- ment as best suited to solve the problem by test- ing the matter. The committee, waich was pre- sided over by James Best, of the Stonemasons’ Union, was composed of delegations repre- senting the following trades and eran: tions ;—The masons, United Bricklayers, United Order of American Carpenters; stone masons, the paper hangers, stone cutters, the painters, the stair builders, marble polishers, the orkingmen’s Union, the Building Trades’ Council. Measures were also discussed te compel the Har- lem Railroad Company te comply with tke provi- sions of the above-mentioned State law, the strict enforcement of which, it is expected, will involve @ lasting salvatien and emancipation ef the work- ing classes. Several sub-committees were formed, and received directions to take further action in the matter. A VERY SAD OASE. ‘ Theodore Johnson, of 108 Orchard street, and Thomas Costamagna, of 152 Leonard street, were taken belore Justice Ledwith, at the Jefferson Mar- ket Police Court, yesterday, charged with stealing two volumes of engravings entitled “Wilkie’s Gal- lery,” valued at $60, from the bookstore of Apple- ton & Co.,on Broadway. Costamagna offered the Dooks for sale at the publishing house of G. W. Carlton, in Union square, very much below their Value. This circumstance aroused the suspicion of the clerk, and Costamagna was detained while a messenger went down to Appleton’s and ascertained that the books had been stolen. Johnson, who was waiting outside the store while Costamagna offered the books for sale, was also taken into cus- tody. Johnson, when asked the usual question as to his guilt or innocenee, answered, “I have noth- ing to say.” Costamagna declared emphatically that he was not guilty. The prisoners describe themselves as ‘‘journalists,”” ir, Johnson is & German by birth, but has been for many years @ resident of this country. He was one time editor of the Cincinnati Commercial, and has for nome years back been employed as @ magazine ter and translator. Recently Johnson has been writing some articles for 4; pleton’s Journal, and itis supposed that while passing through the store, after receiving @ check in payment for his work, he purloined the books, Costamagna, whe 18 said to be an ac- complished, but from his habits unfortunate liter- ary man, is believed by Mr. Appleton to be inno- cent of any knowledge that the books were stolen when he offered them for sale. Both prisoners were committed for trial by Justice Ledwith in de- fault of $1,000 bail each, NEW CATHOLIC PASTORS. Vicar General Quinn’s Successor at St. Peter's. The Rev. Michael J. O'Farrell, pastor at Rondout, has been appointed successor to the Very Rev. William Quinn in the administration of St. Peter's, Barclay street. The Very Rev. Father Quinn will enter on his du- ties as Rector of St. Patrick’s Cathedral this week. The Rev. Michael C. O'Farrell, assistant pastor at St. Peter's, is to succeed the Rev. Michael J. O'Far- rel] at Rondout. ANOTHER OF TRINITY'S LIBERAL AOTS, To THe Eprror OF THE HERALD:— At the annual meeting of the Vestry of AllSaints’ chureh, held on Easter Eve, a series of resolutions were passed, thanking the Rev. Dr. Dix and the corporation of Trinity church for the liberal aid extended to them during the passed year. Were it not for the munificence of the “mother church” the parish of All Saints would be in @ very poor condition; the church edifice was gradually crum- bling away, but, now, thanks to old Trinity, it is looming up again, having been newly painted and furnished. Not only ‘has ‘Trinity ares the church, but she has also built a rectory on one of pg Bee on romises further assist- a er asks that the “poor shall have the Gompel preash ante them.” In deference to her wishes all pew doors have been taken of, and eve ja made equal before the Lord.

Shearman, W. W. Goodric!, Judge Dowling and Superintendent Kelso. The Erie Investigating Commitee met yesterday Morning at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, a'l the mem- bers being present, The evidence, a8 will be seen from the report, was of au interesting nature and threw further light upon the dark chapters o¢ the Erie management. THOMAS, G. SHARMAN, of Field & Shearman, was firet eworn—Was as- Sociate counsel with David D, Field in the Erie directory previous to March, 1872: had a consuita- tion with John H, Comer in the council room, Erie oMices, January, 1872; he came in and stated that Mr. Gould had a claim against the estate of Mr. Fisk; he asked witness whether he was cog- nizant ofa written contract between them; wit- ness told Comer that there was such a contract and that it was just, inasmuch as the money had been paid by Gould; witmess had no personal knowledge that the money had been paid to Gen- eral Barlow only from secondary facts and circum- stances; was persuaded that the money had been paid Genera! Barlow, but would prefer not to state the grounds, The committee decided to PRRSS THE QUESTION, but Mr, Shearman demurred at answering the question when put by Mr. Stickney, inasmuch as that gentleman was so affiliated with General Barlow that it would substantially be replying to an examination by General Bariow in person. The committee -sustained the right of Mr. Stick- ney to condugt the examination. Mr. Shearman—Information as to the complicity of the Attorney General was derived from Messrs. Gould, Fisk, s#elden, Simon Stevens and several Parties, clients of witness, whose names have not been mentioned in this matter, and are therefore NOT AT THE COMMAND OF THE COMMITTEE; the information from Gould came up in this way: Just before the coup d'etat, the Attorney General was about to bring a suit against the Gould direc- tion, which witness was advised of; Gould had stated that he would be able to ix matters with the Attorney General; that he had been paying him the money contracted for, $35,000, at regular in- tervals; the suit was not brought at the time of the coup d@etat; Mr. Gould desired the Attorney General to institute a suit against the new direc. tion to compel an boahsrebay rt this was not pressed by aavice of witness, but the Attorney General’s consent to bring it was given; witness had ex- pressed great contempt both ior a suit brought b; the Attorney General and for that official himself; ANOTHER STATEMENT, which tended to confirm Mr. Goula’s, was made by Mr. Simon Stevens; at least Mr. D. D, Field had stated it to witness in presence of Mr. Stevens, who assented to the truth of tt; it was, in elfect, that General Barlow had demanded $100,000 of Gen- eral Sickles as compensation for his services in bringing about the overthrow and in procuring the repeal of the Classification act; he had lobbied very strenuously for certain measures ne at Albany; witness declined to give the conversation me Mr. Belden without the consent of that gen- leman. Mr. Stickney suggested that it was a well estab- lished rule that there was no tp of lawyer and client in legislative investigations. The wit- ness having volunteered to recount the features of the contract the question was not then pi . Mr, Shearman—One day in November or Decem- ber, 1871, Mr. Belden came into the council room, Erie Building, and stated that Mr. Fisk wanted to make a contract which would have to be very care- fully drawn; it was that Fisk and Gould were to find some business for Belden and Hayes wortn $35,000 a year, and that until such business was found the first-named were to pay the latter $3,000 monthly in advance ; the contract was drawn, and Mr. Belden had said that it was satisfactory to him, but that he would have to show it to a third part; who must be satisfied as to its binding force; witness had no knowledge then that that per- son was the unknown third party; Mr. Gould knew nothing of that part of the contract, and only Mr. Fisk had the management of it; Gould and Fisk both stated afterwards that this contract was really for tne benefit of General Barlow; Stevens aiterwards stated that he knew of mone: coming to General Barlow through Wheeler H. Peckham, whom the General employed; Stevens had sala precisely that, while foreman of the Grand Jury, a person had offered to furnish evi- dence that Peckham had divided the $10,000 fee for the Tweed prosecution with General Barlow; he (Stevens) had gone to look into the evidence, but when it became known that the Grand Jury were going to inquire into the matter they had been called into court and discharged. Stevens also stated that Barlow knew what dis- oe had been made of the $1,500 paid to aker Smith; Smith used that money to have Imself elected Speaker: the fight at that time was very warm; witness had also been informed by Peter H. Watson that a friend of General Barlow had been to Watson to suggest that in view of Barlow’s great services it wouid be Pro) Tr to give him (Barlow) a general retainer of $10,000; none of the corrupt practices of the old directers had ever been stated to witness before their consummation, hence he had never opposed them; when Gould had asked witness NOT TO STIR BARLOW UP, as he was friendly, witness had declined to be bound in such a way, and had continued attackti him on the ground of improper conduct in seve! Tespects; these cases had only come to the knowl- hes of witness by information. ‘itness haa the passage of the “‘Attor- ney General’s bill; Barlow was in favor of the of that bill—in public; would not have wo inference of improper conduct his action before the Legislature, uniess it it be deduced from his determination not to bring suit until the passage of the Attorney General’s bill—a measure which had no chance of p: , and which Crp became an easy way of escaping . a suit. Mr, Lincoln—There was no consideration for the contract between Fisk and Belden & Hayes; the only services rendered by them of which wit- ness was cognizant was Belden going to Albany to see the Attorney General and a jar visit in this city; has no personal knowledge ti any part of the money paid under the contract had gone to the Attorney General; nad been so informed by clients, but cannot say that they claimed to have personal knowledge of it aving so been paid; their statements had been sufficiently strong to convince witness that such was the t; Witness understood that Messrs. Bischoffsheim & Goldschmidt held 65,000 shares of Erie stock at the time of the coup d’état; witness professed quite intimate information as to the finances of the cempany, owing to being caile@ upon to defend suits brought by the faternal Revenue Department; very complete examina- tions of the books were made, and ne money was ever collected as tax on unpaid dividends if earned; if there was such a surplus ss has been pas they must have found some source of profit tha’ has not yet appeared in their accounts; witness, on the contrary, had received information that @ less business was done in 1872 than in 1871, while the road is not in as good a condition now.

Mr. Vanderbilt had been subpoenaed asa witness, but as he had not appeared at the conclusion of the last witness's testimony, the committee adjourned, QUARANTINE INVESTIGATED. burne’s Administrations—Some Ugly Revelations—Swinburne’s Real Estate and Other Speculations at the Expense of the State—Vanderpoel Compli- mented. Mr. Adams, of the Finance Committee of the State Senate, yesterday took testimony, at 50 and 52 Pine street, relative to Quarantine affairs, during which some ugly revelations relative to ex-Health Officer Swinburne were elicited. Mr. Peckham, of Albany, appeared for the committee and eross-ex- amined the witnesses. Henry E. Nesbitt testified that he is a shipping agent for shipowners; he had business with Quar- antine in 1866; had the steamship Peruvian in charge, which had cholera on board; she arrived in May and was kept in the Lower Bay over a month, the passengers being sent up to hospital ship; the bills were rendered for care and keeping by the Quarantine authorities; the bills were for $17,070 25, and one for provisions, vegetables, &c., was for $12,325; they were paid to the Quarantine Commissioners; Cyrus Curtis was one; there were cases of brandy at $60 @ case; of sherry at $45; claret at $25, &c.; the agent could not get the boat till the bills were paid; Dr. Swinburn was Health ee let the other expenses were from $6,000 0 $7,000. G. L. Sherlland testified that he was lighterman at Quarantine, under Dr. Swinburne’s appoint- ment; had a monopoly of the business; the rates were double the usual rates charged; it ought to be more than harbor rates, for the expenses are heavy: the men were paid high wages, because there is a risk from disease; he was there five years ; the rates were subsequently cut down about the third year by himself; they were then about one-half more than regular rates; he also carried on the coopering business to oblige Mr. Swinburne, not because he wanted it, at double the city rates; healso did towing at double the city rates; there was no reason for it; he paid all that was made by the Fletcner, which was used in towing, to Swinburne, whe pocketed it; she was the Quar- antine boat; it Was done by prAngement with the Doctor; he asked witness to run the boat as a fa- vor; had done work under Vanderpoel, but at city rates; it is now opeh to competition; witness owned a third interest in the property occupied by the Health OMer; Dr. Swinburne and another own the other two-thirds; there- are twenty-four acres, for which they paid $70,000 in cash and $150,000 on mortgage; Weiner, who keeps a gin-mill down there, has an interest in it; Weiner and witness paid for it with money furnished by Dr. Swinburne and the title was taken in our names; after that when Swinburne went ont of office we made over Swinburne’s third to Mrs. Swinburne; two- thirds of the property is now rented te the State to pay the interest on the mortgage; the rent paid by the State is $10,500; the rest isto be sold by auction; witness made over ali but one-sixth to Dr. Swinburne’s wife, who owns seven-twelfths; I own one-sixth and Wiener the balance ; the goods were principally stored with Robinson & Pinto; witness had no interest in the storing, and never received a dollar, as he was satisfied with his in- come; the taxes were paid by us in 1872 and 1873; the taxes on our part is about fve hundred dollars; we have 112 lots, worth $1,500a lot;I receive over four hundred dollars for my last quarter's Tent, deducting taxes, 3.
