a THE STATE CAPITAL. | TRE ABBOTT-MADDEN CASE. | ~+ Presence of a Lobby to Secure the Seat for Madden. _—_—— ABBOTT DEPRIVED OF HIS SEAT. —_-—_——— ‘Bergh’s New Cruelty Bill—The Late:t Scheme for Rapid Transit~ Bill to Protect Italian Children — Compliment to Thurlow Weed—The Pneumatic Transit Company— Health Officer ot New York. ALBANY, Peb. 4, 1874, ‘Ivory de that the reputation of this place for ali sorts of corrupt and eccentric methods of legis- Jation Las banished any curiosity in the extraor- “@inary attempt now being made to give the seat mm the Senate for the Tenth district, now ‘Milled by Mr. Frank Abbott, to the notorious Mad- den. The debate in the Senate has developed mothing beyond the fact that the case presented by Abbott is to all unprejudiced minds unassail- ‘@bdle. Senator Woodin, who leads the assault on ‘Abvott’s position, spoke to-day for over ‘@n hour, and, using as his pivotal point the -argument that the law was violatea by the county voamvaseers in rejecting the returns of the Second election district in Forestburg, grouped together ® series of citations to justily the surrender of the seat to Mr. Madden. Senator Ganson, of whom ‘tne Senate so iar has heard littie, replied to Mr. ‘Woodin, as did also Senator Johnson, and, though they spoke with more feeling and venemence than Ordinary questions might appear to demand, they were persuasive to a suificient degree to alter the sentiment and the predictions of many who stood outside the railing in the capacity of listeners. A few days ago the general opinion seemed to be that Madden would get the seat. The fact was the case had obtaineu no attention, no investigation into its. real merits. Now, however, that it is being more {uily ventilated and the injamy of depriving this man Abbott of his seat becomes so @pparent, the current of feeling, as lar as it is uninfluenced by politics or self- imterest, and as far as it can be judged withia the bampered !imits of the Capitol, turns in favor of the democratic member. Mr. Madden’s case must rest on a rotten oundation when it becomes neces- Bary that a lobby should be bronght here from New York city to push him through. It looks suspi- cious when George Van Nort, Sheridan Shook, Dan Conover and Hank Smith present themselves bere at this particular moment. The lobby- jets whose schemes in the railroad line Mr. Madden championed last year in the Senate were also on hand, and the necessity seemed very ur- genewith all these people that Mr. Madden, at all is, Should be put in the place of Mr. Abbott. There happens to be another case just now on the = of trial—that of Yeomans vs. Thompson. latter is arepubiican and holds the seat for the Twenty-third district. He was elected by one majority, and by throwing out the votes of fourteen persons who fell into the simple informality of writing their ballots and meglecting to add the distinctive aMx of “Jr.” atter the name of their candidate. Justice, of course, ‘Would award the seat to Mr. Yeomans, the demo- rat, and it is in the programme of a sapient re- publican policy to do so, provided Mr. Madden is installed in Abbott’s seat. It will look well in the papers to slaughter a republican in return for a democrat. It will look impartial and disinterested. The republican majority must at any risk be P peg pies even if it be necessary to go Yo New York and procure testimony w show that Mr. Pinckney (republican) is properly entitled to ‘the seat of Mr. Moore, the democratic Senator trom She Eigith distric. Mr. Yeomans, given the seat ‘that rightfully belongs to him, will be supposed to act aS a set-off to the wrong perpetrated in the Geposition of Mr. Abbott. THE CASE ig very simple, and may be stated again in afew lines. The county canvassers refused to receive the returns of Sullivan county, because on their face they were a Jorgery, and the tigures were so Naimly altered that anybody could detect the ud. The champions o/ Mr. Madden in the Senate | nd in the local press contend that in refusing to | receive the returns, whether regular or otherwise, | they violated the law, and consequently Abbott was not entitled to the benefit of their action. The true meaning of the course of the county canvassers Was that they felt so thoroughly convinced that the returns were tampered with, they instinctively declined to have anything to do with them, 1t i880 piain that he who rugs may read, and the refusal of the canvassers to take the returns, If a violation of the letter, was in abso- tute harmony with the spirit of the law. Senator Johnson spoke up boldly in reference to the out- wide pressure that Was being brought to bear on the republican part of the Senate to vote in Mad- den. He alludea, of course, to the lopby, whose representatives were within hear: ing of his voice, and who wanted Mr. Madden because they lad experience of his usefulness in his previous career as Senator. The debate went over to an evening session at hali- past seven. BERGH’S NEW BILL.

Mrs. Long’s Version of the Hamilton-Montague Affair—The Official Report of the Defaleation. ‘The story of Miss Montague published in yester- day’s HERALD, tn regard to Hamilton, was not cal- culated to allay the excitement in Jersey City on account of the defalcation, statement was doubted in many quarters, aHERALD reporter called upon Mrs. Long, whose history of the case will be found Interesting. It will be seen that she contradicts Miss Montague in several ma- terial points, and she feels most indignant that such misstatements—gross falsehoods, she called them— should have been made regarding her. Mrs. Long isa very pleasant, affable lady, of agreeable man- ners and was altogether straightforward and free {rom anything savoring of embarrassment in her narrative. Without any preface or preamble she proceeded as follows:—Much as I regret the publicity my name is to receive in connection with this case, I am bound to vindicate myself when misstatements concerning me have been so recklessly made. When I read in the HERALD this morning the interview with Miss Montague, and especially her allusions to me, I could hardly believe my eyes. Now, please hear me, and I will be as brief as pos- sible. It was on the afternoon of Monday, Octo- ber 27, that Miss Montague first came into my res- taurant, incompany with a Miss Hattie Arnold. They called for toast and tea. While they were sitting at table there came in Aleck Hamilton, ac- compauied by—— [Here she mentioned the names of three male companions They sat down at a table directly enind the two ladies, After a while Miss Montague went to the back room and Hamilton started up and asked me who those ladies were. I told him one of them (describing the particular one) was Miss Montague, who was to p! ind the Jersey City Theatre that night. He replied that she was a splendid looking woman, and that if [ would introduce him to her he would pay for all the dinners. When Miss Montague returned I asked her if she would like to be introduced to that gentleman. She asked who they were, and I replied that Hamilton was the City Treasurer. “Is he all right?’ she asked. “Well,” 1 answered, “I have always found him to be @ perfect gentieman; as far as I know he 1s all right.” She then turned to Miss Arnold and asked her what she thought about it. Miss Arnold re- plied that she could see no harm in it, and that they might as weil go up stairs (where the large dining room is situated). I nodded to Aleck to go up, ana he knew what it meant, They all pro- ceeded up stairs, and as I had to attend to tne place below, I cailed on a young lady who assists me occasionally, to go up and introduce them. “Never mind,’ satd Aleck, “1 will intro- duce myseil.”’ The gentlemen all called for wine. Aleck sat at the table at one side anu Miss Montague sat on the other side. One of the gentle- men chaffed him about becoming so soft over a lady at such short acquaintance, They remained up Stairs from half-past one till five o’clock. When Aleck called a few days alter to pay a bill he said he nad a note from Miss Montague stating that she accepted the invitation to ride, and fixed on Friday ; but he could not go on that day. A few days afterwards she cailed and inquired if the gen- tleman had been there. She told me to tell Aleck that she would meet him there for dinner on Sat- urday afternoon, after the matinée. I don’t remem- ber whether ethey came. Observe that al- thongh Miss Montague’s engagement at the Jersey City theatre lasted only one week, she remained in Jersey City as long as two weeks, or nearly 60, aiterwards. One day Aleck was up stairs dining, In rege, emf with a lady, when Miss Montague came in. I told her that Aleck was up stairs, and she at once desired to see him. He asked that she be sent up, and when she went up the other lady left. Aleck and Miss Montague had Scotch ales and cigars and BOTH SMOKED. I had to go up stairs and caution them against speaking too loud, as Mr. Moreland, tne actor, and his wile were in the next room. Aleck went out lor a short time, and she said to me, “What @ pity itis that Aleck is married; if he were not I shouid be infatuated with him; he does not live happily at home; if1 had met him before he was married I would have made a man Oo! him.” When Aleck came back @ coach soon followed him tothe door. I gave hera shawl, and they both went off in a coach. Next morning, Mr. Moreland called me and asked me if 1 knew that Miss Montague had not played at Newark last ties and that she got another lady to take her place. Wheh she came pack after filling an engagement in Boston she showed me a magnificent pair of bracelets so wide (measuring her wrist) and a cluster diamond ring, which she said sbe had got as wedding prevents (from her brother, I believe she said), and sie asked me for some paper to send a note to Aleck at the City Hall. She wrote the note and sent it and then went out, When she came back | remarked to her that Aleck was gone to New York, and she said, ‘Oh, that’s so; I forgot; he had an engagementto MEET ME THIS EVENING at the Coleman House. Aleck showed me a de- Spatch at one time that she sent to him at the City Hali from the Coleman House. As he was not in at the time tne despatch was sent to his house, and his wife read it, he seemed very angry about it, Miss Montague had signed her name iv full to the despatch. On the day she arrivea irom Boston she appeared fatigued, and asked for some gin and sugar. I gave it to her, and she wanted to pay for it, but I would not receive payment. I would here remark that I never received one dollar nor evep, one cent from Miss Montague from the first day L saw her till the last. The last time I saw Aleck wos on the 23d of January, just one week beiore ne vb- sconded., He was greatly excited and pulled outa pal saying he was going to shoot a s—— in New ork, He left with a young lady in a coactjabout half-past two in the aiternoon, Among the falsehoods that most annoy me in Miss Montague’s statement ts thatin which she Says that on introducing Hamilton to her I said he Was hot married; another that I addressec her as “Oh, mny lady,’’ just as uf I had assumed tuat 1 was her inferior, THE EXPERT'S WORK. The examination of Hamuton’s Outwater has been concluded. Tue ounts by Mr. detalcations amount to $47,000 in bonds and $35,825 in cash. Hamilton made his haul from both the tax and assessment accounts. Mr. Outwater will next examine the water account, alter which he will tuin his attention to the City Collector's otice, SHIPPING NEWS. OCEAN STEAMSHIPS.
