é ‘ os . THE WAR IN TURKEY. A GOVERNOR GENERAL TO BE APPOINTED FOR THE CHRISTIAN PROVINCES-—-THE GREAT POW- ERS UNLIKELY TO GUARANTEE THE REFORMS— THE CONSULS STILL AT WORK. Lonvon, Oct. 9, 1875, The Pall Mall Gazette this afternoon has a special tel- @gram from Berlin containing the following:— “It is now proposed in the execution of ‘the contem- Plated reforms that the administration of the disaffected Provinces be intrusted to a governor general enjoying the confidence of the Christian subjects of the Sublime Porte. The proposal seems likely to succeed, though it is not at all likely that the Great Powers will guarantee the reforms, notwRbstanding the insurgents still insist upon it, The consuls at Mostar are negotiating and endeavoring to pacify the insurgents through the me- dium of the clergy.” BVIDENCES OF A PEACEFUL FEELING IN SERVIA. } Beranane, Oct, 9, 1874, It is reported that the new Servian Ministry has been formed and that the members belong to the peace party. HOLLAND AND VENEZUELA. RELATIONS BROKEN OFF. ‘Tux Hacve, Oct, 9, 1875. Diplomatic relations between this country and Ven- ezuola have been broken off, because Holland refased to indemnify Venezuela for alleged intervention by Dutch subjects, at Curacoa, in Venezuelan internal affuirs. THE VENEZUELAN MINISTER LEAVES THE HAGUE—SPECULATIONS AS TO THE CAUSE, Loxnon, Oct. 9, 1875, A despatch received in this city from The Hague an- ‘mounces that the Venezuelan Minister Plenipotentiary, ‘with his secretary, left there on Saturday for Brussels, “The announcement derives its importance from the known relations between the two countries, and suggests tho inquiry whethor the movement noted in- dicates a rupture of diplomatic relations. Diplomatic circles say probably not, as in such cases, usuaily, there is no attempt at secrecy. HE ORIGIN OF THE DIFFICULTY—WHY THE RE- LATIONS WERE BROKEN OFF—THE DUTCH REP- RESENTATIVE AT CARACAS RECALLED. ’ Lonpox, Oct. 9, 1875, The following particulars in regard to the differences between Holland and Venezucla have transpired :. Venezuela asked to be indemnitied for expenses in- curred in suppressing a recent revolt in her dominions, which, as she alleged, was aided by the inhabitants of the island of Curacoa, Holland refused to enter into negotiations until Venezucla restored the Dutch ship ‘Midas, which she had seized, and agree to reopen her ports to Dutch commerce. Venezuela eventually agreed to restore the Midas, but desired the withdrawal by Holland of the second condi- tion. Holland not having acceded to these terms within three days, diplomatic relations between the two countries were ruptured. The Dutch repre- Sentative at Caracas has been recalled. GERMANY. INCREASE IN THE MILITARY ESTIMATES. Loxpow, Oct. 9, 1875. The Pall Mall Gazette's Berlin special to-day, says it 4s reported that Germany will demand this year tho addition of 6,000,000 marks to the military estimates. THE AMERICAN CARDINAL. Oe Se CARDINAL M’CLOSKEY RETURNING TO AMERICA. , Rome, Oct. 9, 1875. Cardinal McCloskey, who is about to depart for ‘America, bade farewell to-day to the Pope and Cardinal Antonelli, Much emotion was manifested at the leave taking. A VISIT TO THE STUDENTS OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE—THE CARDINAL'S FLUENCY IN ITALIAN. {From the London Morning Post, Sept. 28, 1875.] ALnano, Sept, 23, 1875, Yesterday morning Cardinal McCloskey honored our willeggiatura with his presence, The students of the American College are passing the summer here in a villa on the ascent to St. Paal’s, belonging to the Cesarini family, and His Eminence accepted the rec- tor’s invitation to dine with the collegians and spend the day in the country. The Cardinal accordingly drove out from Rome with Dr. Chatard and was met at din- | ner by about thirty persons, of whom half belonged to the college, the others being chiefly ecclesiastics, com prising Mgr. Angelini, Mgr. Callaghan, rector of the ‘English College; Dr. Smith, the learned Benedictine, ‘and only three lay guests—Messrs. Rogers and Hand: ley, sculptors, and Commendatore de Rossi, the great authority in ‘Christian archwology. ‘There was no ‘speech-making and the Cardinal's quiet and cordial tManuer was very pleasing. i118 KNOWLEDGE OF ITALIAN. Tt was also a matter for surprise and admiration that he should have retained such a fluent use of the Italian language, considering that he only came to Rome in 1835, and resided two years in the Propaganda Colloge, Bince when his visits have been few and far between, such as on the occasion of the Vatican Council and last year. The English and American ladies residing in ‘Albano were anxious to pay their respects to the Cardi- nal after the dinner, but they were doomed to be dis- appointed, for the letter written by Dr. Chatard before starting from Rome, announcing the pleasure which His Eminence would feel in receiving lady visitors in the afternoon, only reached Albano after the Cardinal had ‘had left this :own to return to the capital, having to de present at the consistory held by his Holiness this morning. It is to be hoped that the ladies will mot be disappointed next time, for His Eminence is to ‘dine atthe American College again on the 30th, after taking possession of his titular church of Santa Maria-sopra-Minerva, which he has selected out of the ‘vacant cardinalitian protectorates, regardless of the traditional objection to that church in the Sacred Col- Jego, upon the supposition that its titular Cardinal never lives long. 1 should mention that no fewer than five Roman marble workers came out to Albano yesterday in the hope of seeing Cardinal McCloskey more easily ‘than in Rome, in order to offer His Eimmence their services for bis new cathedral in New York.

THE RECEPTION YESTERDAY ON BOARD THE BELLEROPHON—DISTINGUISHED AND FASHION~ ABLE GUESTS—THE VESSEL ON HER WAY TO ‘HALIFAX. Newrorr, RL, Oct, 9, 1875, To-day was set apart by Admiral Wellesley for his reception, which was postponed from Thursday, on ac- count of the storm. ‘The auspicious event was favored to-day with pleasant weather. Tho steamer ‘Reliance, which had been tendered the Admiral by the American Steamboat Company, for the transpor- tation of his guests took her first load of passen- gers to the Bellerophon, at half-past three o'clock this afternoon, and continued to run from that hour until nine o'clock, thus an opportunity was offered for returning before the close of the entertain ment should any of the guests wish to do so. There were about five hundred who had accepted the Ad- miral’s invitation, and the party included nearly all of the summer residents who are still occupying their cot- tages here, and many were also present from different sections of this State. PROMINENT GUESTS. Among the promincnt guests were the following from New York:—General RK. B. Potter, William R. Travers, Russell Forsyth, Colonel G. R. Fearing, Dr. R. J, Ar. nold, Dr. E. N.

Randolph Breese, Dr. Flint, Lieu- tenant Randall, Lieutenant Commander Higginson, Pro- fessor Farmer and Lieutenant R. B. Bradford; Captain ‘D. P. Heap and General G, K, Warren, of the United States Engineer corps. Fort Adams was represented by General Hunt, Surgeon Campbell, Major Randolph, Captain Van Reed, Lieutenant Baldwin, Lieutenant Sage, Lieutenant Willard, Lieutenant Wood and Lieutenant Hills; Lieutenant Commander W, B, Hoff, in charge of torpedo boat Alarm, and Lieutenant Paine, of the same vessel. Admiral Porter and F, M. Barber, United Statos Navy, late in command of the Alarm; Colonel C. W. Lippitt, Colonel E, C. Ames, Captain F. §. Arnold and Captain J. Cushing, of Governor Lippitt’s staff, Council- man W. W. Douglass, Providence; (..N. Beach, Hart- ford; Colonel Prince, United States Army. Admiral Porter’s family were present, and Mrs. Ad- miral Wellesley and her daughter were on hand to bid all a welcome to the ship. The gdmiral took pains to see all his guests and bid them welcome, All the army and navy officers appeared in fuil uniform, and, in con- nection with their companions of the Bellerophon and Argus, presented a constellation of brilliancy seldom seen in this country or any other. THE DECORATIONS, ‘The decorations were as elegant as could be expected on board a man-of-war, and to the credit of the Belle- rophon, be it said, they were arranged by her officers and crew. The whole of the after deck, and poop deck ag well, was canopied with a donb awning, so that, in case it rained, the party would be protected, and it would not cause any interruption in the festivities. ‘This was canopied underneath with flags of all nations, prominent ataong which were the American and Kng lish in the contre. On the break of the poop was fastened a circle composed of cutlasses, bayonets and ramrods, and on the opposite side two semicircles, composed of the same material, were secon. These, when the lights were on,’ prosented a fine appearance. Alongside of the former was the Crown of England, with the following inscription underneath, ‘Deu et Mon Droit."’ Between the other two, on the opposite side, was the plume of the Prince of Wales, with the English and American flags on either side of it. Three handsome chandeliers, lighted with wax candles, which were placed inside of cut glass globes, attracted considerable attention. The capstan was decorated with flowers. AMERICA’S PAIR DAUGRTERS. ‘The ladies were elegantly dressed, and‘in fact it may be called a full dress affair. The mingling of America’s fair daughters with the British officers was a matter of favorable comment from the fact that our naval and army officers took special pains to introduce the for- eigners and to show them that it was the wish of the ladies to do their part in making the affair as social as possible. The British officers said that they had never, &t home or abroad, been so courteously recoived by the ladies and made to feel by them that it was a pleasure to assist ‘in the carrying out of the programme. Admiral Porter danced frequently and appeared greatly to enjoy the occasion. ‘There were twenty dances on the programme, and these were completed before the party broke up at nine o’closk. MRS. MISS WELLESLEY. Mrs. Wellesley and! her daughter attracted no little attention by the interest which they took in the affair, and it was a noticeable tact that Admiral Porter’s son was the first to dauce with Miss Wellesley. CLEARING THE DECKS. This evening the decks of the Bellerophon were cleared and ahe was quickly put in sailing order, Two of ber anchors were weighed. This afternoon she will start for Halifax, followed by the Argus at daylight to- morrow morning, and expects to arrive on Thursday. THE ADMIRAL’S ACKNOWLEDGMENTS, The Admiral desired to express through the Hzra.p his gratitude for the courtesies tendered him and his officers while in American waters, and he should officially notity the Queen of everything that had transpired. He could safely say that the courtesies would be reciprocated whenever an occasion presented itself, and that the day was not far distant when other British vessels would visit Newport or some other { American port, THE MISSISSIPPI TROUBLES.

Wasuinetor, Oct. 9, 1875, The Attorney General resumed his. official duties to-day and was called upon by a large number of visitors. Among the callers were ex-United States Senator Peaso and United States Attorney Wells, of Mississippi, and the State Attorney General of Mississippi, who desired to give their Views upon political matters there, A lengthy conversation resulted, in the course of which the dele- gation assured the Attorney General that any departure from the policy of the administration, already indicated by the Attorney General, would be disastrous to the interests of the State, and especially would its best cili- zons deplore the sending of troops, These gentlemen assured Judge Pierrepont that if matters were let as they now are, without any Inter- ference by the gynera! government, the result would be the redomption of the State from many serious diffi- culties now existing, notamong the least of which would bo the election ofa patriotic and law-abiding Legislature, The interview was very lengthy, and at the close the Attorney Generalrequested the visitors to remain in Washington antilthe return of the President, and ex- pd ing the tuation of affairs as viewed from their ne “Anowher telogran was received at the Department of Jastice to-day: Senator Alcorn, reiterating sub- stantially the statenents heretofore made by him, and GENERAL 62 | declaring that good men of all paxtiga | aL eeorent aac atiygaiae NSS CHARLEY ROSS. EFFORTS TO INDUCE WESTERVELT TO CONFESS— A PARDON OFFERED HIM TO TELL—HE KNOWS NOTHING, BUT ‘‘SEARCH THE CATH- OLIC INSTITUTIONS’—HE 18 SENTENCED TO SEVEN YEARS AT HARD LABOR. Purtapenrata, Oct. 9, 1875. After the conviction of William H. Westervelt for complicity in the concealment of Charley Ross, in not giving up Mosher and Douglass to justice when he knew that the police were after them, he was taken to Moyamensing Prison, in this city, where he has re- mained ever since. There was meester before he should be sentenced, his counsel Waving moved for a new trial, the arguments upon which question it was necessary to hear upon both sides, Since his trial he has been constantly visited by Mr. Ross and his agents, who have tried in every way to secure some further information from him—some clew, however vagne and slight, that may lead to the recovery of the child. He has been told that Mr. Ross will use his influence to obtain him a full pardon if he will tell what common reports crodit him with knowing of the whereabouts of the child, Officials of the State and city govern. ments have intimated to him that a pardon will surely be granted if he confesses, All has been of little avail, however. The prisoner always has the same answer to such offers, “I know nothing more than I have told, I do not know where the child is, and if my life depended on it I could not tell.” One day not long since, however, when the jailer was talking to him, he did let fall suggestion that may be worth following up, He did not speak from positive knowledge, he said, “but tell Mr. Ross to SHARCH THE CATHOLIC INSTITUTIONS.” Being asked what institutions he referred to, he said, “The orphan asylums and schools.”” Did he know of any such places in particular or any ity where this had best be done? No,’ he replied, arch them all. ‘The boy may be found in one,”” How did he know ?”? ‘Ido not_know,’? was his pettish answer, hope so, How should I know? have a theory; that’s all.” “What was his reason for suggesting this step?” His answer showed the shrewdness of the man, It was a thought worthy of the subtlest detective, “Charley Ross,” he said, “might be in one of those institutions in our most public streets in this very city, and be as far away as if he was on the other side of the globe, He would be as much out of the world as if he were dead. The sister or brother having charge of these places might innocently have possession of that child—he could’ be given into their hands ina thousand ways—and they be profoundly ignor- ant that the whole world is looking for him. Every newspaper proper in the land has published the story of the abduction and the description of the child, yot these religious ofders would not hear a word of it. Why? For the simple reason that a secular paper never enters their walls. Only religious papers are ever found there.” This sugggstion, which was mado in language substan- tially that given ‘above, was too yaluable to be pas unheeded. ‘The institutions for the reception of dren, both Catholic and Protestant, religious and secu- lar, were visited at the time the police made domiciliary visits to every house in this city last year; but not only was that search not a thorough one as far as it went, but it did not extend to any other city than Philadel phia, “f only I only advise it, I THE PLAN I8 ADOPTED, Tho plan proposed by Westervelt is so admira- ble that every one will naturally wonder why some- body elso did not think of it before, which is always the case when a bright idea 1s evolved in an emergence Perhaps some may claim that it has been broached be- fore, or even that it has been done in the police search before alluded to; but it cannot be disputed that any- thing approaching a thorough investigation in all the religious institutious of the United States has never been attempted. « Westervelt’s suggestion has been adopted. A leading |* Catholic journal which circulates in every Roman chari- table or religious institution in the United States and Canada is about to publish—perhaps by this time has published—a description of the missing child, Whether anything comes of it time will show, WESTERVELT’S IGNORANCE, Ofone thing I think the public may rest assured, Westervelt does not know the hiding place of Charley Ross Ifhe did he would have saved hinfself before. Only a day or two ago a rich man, a Western merchant and a man of influence in public’ affairs, asked to see Westervelt in his cell. Ho introduced himself and said, “If you wilt tell Mr. Ross or any person you choose to name where or how Charley Ross can be fouud I will not only pledge you my word that you shall have a free pardon, but I will give youa large sum of money, enough to take you away from-here and to make you comfortable.”” Is it likely that a man who has shown that he has affection for hts children would have refused such an offer as this when he sees the gates of a prison closing on him perhaps for life, and fus own little ones suflering a8 much ashe? It is unreasonable to hope that this man knows any more than he has told, His suggestion was merely that of an unusually acute ian who has thought much on the matter, WESTERVELT SENTENCED. Judge Elcock, who presided at the trial of Westervelt, was also the judge, by an absurd law of this State, be: fore whom the prisoner's counsei was obliged to make thegnotion for a new trial. It was not to be expected that an occupant of the Bench would do otherwise than pass favorably upon his own previous decisions, so that noboay was surprised this morning when Judge Elcock announced, after the opening of the Court, that in the case of the motion for a new trial in behalf of Westervelt he had carefully reviewed the reasons, found them the same that he had passed upon during the trial and therfore overruled the motion. ‘The prisoner, who was already in court with a batch of others awaiting trial, was then directed to stand up. He did so in what is called the little dock and Judge Elcock spoke to him as follows ‘THE SENTENCE, The sentence of the Court is that you pay a fine of $1, the costs of prosecution and that you undergo an im- prisonment at golitary confinement at hard labor in the | Eastern Penitentiary for the term of seven years and that you stand cominitted until that sentence be com- plied’ with. “SEVEN YEARS AT HARD LAnOR.”? The prisoner listened with apparently close intorest to the words of the Judge. When the severe sentence was announced, and the words “seven years at hard labor” pronounced, he bent his head forward and shook like a leaf. As the tipstatf removed him to tho large dock it was seen thi he was crying like a child, and when he took his seat he bowed his head in his hands and continued weeping. CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO RAILROAD, APPOINTMENT OF MR. HENRY TYSON AS RE- CEIVER OF THE ROAD—ENTERING UPON HIS OFFICE—PREPARING A REPORT. Ricumonn, Va., Oct. 9, 1875. Much to the surprise of the people here, an order was issued by Judge Bond, of the United States Circuit Court, to-day, appointing Mr. Henry Tyson, formerly Vice President of the Erie Railroad and recently Master of Transportation of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, receiver of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, with a bond of $50,000 in this State and the same amount in West Virginia, ‘The matter created still greater astonishment, owing tothe fict that the order was issued in advance, and without the hearing of counsel on both sides, which was sot down for the 22d inst., in the previous order of the Court, upon the application for the bill of fore- closure, on the part of certain bondholders, The action was taken, however, upon the further appli- cation of counsel of the first mortgage bond- holders, to the offect that seizures of prop- erty of the road by subordinate claimants and creditors had been made, and were about to be made, and that the appointment of the receiver was absolutely necessary for the protection of the prop- erty and the interests of complainants. The counsel ofthe Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company resi- dent in this State made an application to the Court for a suspension, or at least a modification of the order ap- pointing the’ receiver, which was refused. This even- ing that official took possession of the road, which was juietly surrendered by General Wickham, the Vice Presi- Gent and manager of the company, ‘who promptly issued the necessary order to his subordinates turning over the property and management to the receiver. The latter, who has partially examined the accounts of the company, found them in a much more procarious condition than was even anticipated, and he will make a report at an early day, which will’ inform the creditors as to the facts and the best means by which the road can be made to pay. : General Wickham has kindly congenged to assist the receiver in the management of the road for a brief period. The road to-night is in full operation, all the trai running on the regular schedule and all the em being at work as under the company’s management, OBLTUARY. M. DEZANNEAU.

Bostox, Mass., Oct, 9, 1875, To tHe Epiror or Tae Henaup:— ‘a I notice what Mr. Schurz says about good manners and I shall try to follow his advice, and not his exam- ple. It is an easy course, but wo have not asually thought It good manners to taunt an opponent with ignorance without reading bis articles, Mr. Schurz wastes half of his letter in charging us paper money men with ignorance of facts, which we not only know, bat have been the first to bring out in this discussion, and have been arguing on for two or three years. We can spare this exhibition of his uew learning. Tf he cannot auswer, I claim that he shall not misrepresont me, I never proposed to abolish the discount power of banks, only to forbid their issuing bills. They may continue to lend all they can at five or six per cent, which will be the general rate of interest wherever tho government gives only threo-sixty-five. I said, “fower checks and more greenbacks;”’ he argues as if I had said, “no checks and all greenbacks."’ Of course he easily knocks down the absurd image he had set up. Bankers met in one room, as in the New York Clearing House, may handle thousands of millions with checks. Greenbacks and introconyertible bonds are more convenient for business men scattered from the Atlantic to the Pacific. “Fewer checks and more greenbacks”’ means more money, and within reach of every class of business men, BANKING ACCOMMODATION. Everybody knows that it is not true, as Mr, Schurz asserts, that bank facilities are equally within the reach of tho “whole mass of the business men.”” When bankruptey opens bank ledgers to the public gaze, we see that five or six rich firms have borrowed all the bank lent, Witness tho Rhode Island banks, and tho Spragues. Two or three rich firms use the bank Smaller traders are pushed to the wall, and ba ruptcy, Our system will prevent this; more green- backs means a healthier system of business. ‘The war currency reduced a large share of sales from three and six months to thirty days and cash on delivery, As to the effect of currency on prices, Mr. Schurz and his school measure everything by gold. INFLATION OF PRICES, He repeats his assertion that our greenback system will ruinously inflate prices, His assertions are entitled toacertain respect. But Idid not say I proved, I did not assert, I demonstrated by a long extract from Carey, the ablest living economist, that our war currency was not the cause which made gold vary in price. Mr. Schurz does not attack those facts, because he cannot. He goes back a hundred years and cries out ‘“Assignats,”” “Continental money;” excollent jfooling. Very witty indeed, Meanwhile I must continue to put more faith in Henry Carey’s facts than m Schura’s jokes, His reference to Mill seems to mo a simplo evasion, If Bonamy Price ever inquires about my health because I brlieve in greonbacks secured by government bonds pay- able in gold, I will quiet Price by quoting his words on page 150. 1am not aware of any valid objection which can be urged against this method of guaranteeing con- vertibility.”” When we come so nearas that we can tolerate each other, Mr. Schurz has got new light since I criticised him and recants his emphatic assertion that no nation ever any where used paper money without ruin, Heallows there may be times demanding it. THE WATERLOO DEMONSTRATION. Though he cannot agree that paper notes actually gained the vietory at Waterloo, he is forced to confess that England flourished under paper, and has flourished ever since, which is all Tclaimed. said tho same of France, that paper money had not ruined her as he as- sorted it had always ruined every nation that tried it. | Mr. Schurz allows this, and kindly puts the climax on my argument by showing that go far from paper having ruined France, sho is now preparing to re- sume specie’ payment. That proves all I said. Prosperity instead of ruin — attended and followed immense amounts of irredeemable paper, and whenever our foreign commerce like that of France enables us to pay anecighbor one thousand mill- jons of coin ang have more than one thousand millions of gold left, we may also prudently resume specie pay- ment if we think it wise. Until then French expe- rience teaches us to wait. THE ALLUSION TO GERMANY. Mr. Schurz thinks my allusion to Germany ludicrous. He was asserting that specie basis secured contidence and stability of price, I denied it, and asked him to explain the state of Germany, a country full of coin, having just received one thousand million of it asa gift. He replies by explaining why Germany is in a crisis. 1 do not need his explanation why; but he does not and cannot deny that specie basis Germany, choked with coin, 1s yet actually in acrisis which upsets his claim that specie basis always saves nations from a crisis, Thatis all I asserted, and he confesses it, But his explanations lets the bottom out of his whole speech. He told us specie guaranteed us against pante, and inflation, and overtrading, and paper brought these on, But listen to Sehuri ‘in Germany the caus production, over trading, over speculation and over ining of the credit system which is always to be ted by an over abundance of money not the prod- uct of labor, industry,” &c, ‘The New York Tribune joins him in this; so it seems coin and paper, if in excess, are all the same, Too much coin in Germany works the same barm as too much paper here. "Where, then, is the Schurz philosophy? ‘Our greenback system’ has elements heretofore untried, which seem to promise more security against crises than we have had hitherto, 1 will’ tell him why Germany, with all her specie, trembles to her centre; and why, France, with ‘all her $600,000,000 of paper, docs not, Ger: many has just made gold her sole'legal tender, thus binding herself to the London mark France keeps free on silver as a basis, Our bankersare crazy to havo us put on British chains, make gold our only legal tender, and have an ague fit every time London feels cold. Mr, Schurz calls our greenbacks “‘irredeem- able.” Who made them so? Not we. Oncé they were redeemable in five-twenty bonds, which are as good as gold. Greedy capital outwitting the people ten years ‘ago broke that pledge and cut the currency loosa” We mean to make them again redeemable in national Donds bearing 3.65 interest, and payable finally in gold. A WARNING TO LARORERS. Mr. Schurz warns the laborer not to trust us” Let the working man listen.

Now the rich grow richer and the rest starve, WENDE PHILLIPS. THE LUMBER YARD MURDER. of the coll pse was that over CLEWS TO THE MURDERER—A LONG PLANNED AND CHERISHED CRIMINAL PURPOSE. ‘The murder of James Langdon has for weeks been shrouded in mystery, but at last information has been obtained which will in all probability lead to the arrest and conviction of the murderer. The police in their searches found a man named Lavery, and it is on the information given by him they are now at work. The information is as follows:—On the Thursday pre- coding the murder of young Langdon a man entered a liquor store in West Sixteenth street, near Tenth ave- noe, and told of having been robbed in the lumber yard at Ninth ayenue and Fourteenth street of a sum of money and a. German silver watch, At the time the man was telling this story Mr. Lavery, who was among the number i the saioon, asked him if he had reported the robbery to the police and the man informed him that he would not, but that he would mote out justice in his own way. Mr. Lavery tried to got him to go to the station house, but he refused to do so. He said he would come across the party that had robbed him; that he would know him again, as the man had a sear on his face which he could not conceal. ‘The descriptions given of the man that spoke to the stableman in the lumber yard, and who looked into the face of Connors, correspond with that given by Mr. Lavery, Langdon had a gcar on his face, and it ts known that the man whom Lavery describes passed Thursday and Friday and = Sat- urday morning previous to the murder, in visiting the haunts of ngdon, This proves that the murderer imbued his hands in blood willingly, that his criminal purpose was cherished in many hours of dark thought. The marderer is known to the police, and it ight that he will soon be arrested. He js said © been formerly employed as a train man on the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, bat that, atthe time of the murder, he resided with his mother in this city. It is now known that he re- mained at home two weeks after the murder was com- mitted. He then for atime left for parts unknown, but the police say they have now unearthed him, THE MURDER OF PL. ©.
