?Mr. New?? Resignation.
Washington, Jan. '25. ?The,letter which
Relator Lutn^r wrote tb^~Cominonwea5tfc
c!u*> of Philadelphia regreft?6jj his inabflity
to attend the Carlisle.reception, is now for
the first time made p^'btid concluding
paragraph is as followsi "The paramount
jst?ue before the cohntrJ:jp still the refona ol
the national government from its sectionaiUsurpation
and corruption. The great want
of the country is peace ajjd administrative
reform. T? accomplish this great end oJ
admistrative reform all true democrats, all
patriots, -whether of democratic 01
rcjjublican antecedents, who are willing tc
co-operate, should, whatever may bs thair
| differences on other questions, unite to elect
a democratic president. The union of the
democracy for the good of th& Union is the
first step to a crowning victory that will inaugnrate
an administration under which
local self-government, a fro? and harmonl
? oas play of economic forces, the just rights
of states and individuals, of labor and capital,
mil be secured, and at the same time
the American, republic shall have opened tc
it a career of grandeur and beneficenct
transcending even the glories of the past."
The official announcement of the resignation
of John C. Now as assistant secretary oi
the treasury now made is not unexpected.
Mr. New accepted the position under wha<
he supposed to be an assurance that he-wouk
be expected to boM the position only a short
time, after which he might be appointed sec
retary. At that time it was thought that
Secretary Folger would be either promoted
to me other position or would retire froir
thy cabinet. Mr. New has since, at differenl
times, when it was evident that the supposed
arrangement would not be made, notified th<
president of his desire to retire; but the president
last fall urged him to remain. It ii
now believed that Mr. New is not in favor ol
President Arthur's renomination. His pressing
business interests are given as the cause
of his retirement.
A fewdays since ex-Speaker Keifer said the
resignation of Mr. CW. Tyson, a committet
stenographer of the forty seventh congress,
was volunteered and showed the communication
containing the resignation, which wa<
dated March 3, ISSo. Mr. Tyson was exam
it :od by Messrs. Dockery, Brewer-^ and Mulkr,
of the house committee on accounts, una
lie said that, the resignation had been demanded
by Mr. Keifer. who expressed a de
sire to appoint in his stead bis nephew. Mr.
Tyson further said that he had not contemplated
resigning until asked to do so by the
ci -speaker.

was crowded at Palmer's cross-examination.
He testified : hat once he came into their office
a- -1 fouml Rowel!.crying and saving to
himself, ''She was such a pretty woman."
Rowell was a kind and loving man to his
family; he took great pains in erecti:i^ tho
now iurfise and accepted his wife's su^estious
regarding the plan. Palmer said that
he sup^ested to Rowell that the letter box
be watched, and that Lynch that night visited
the new house. He was a powerful
man. and unless Rowell was armed he might
crush him. Palmer also explained to the
prisoner how to make a slungshot out of
stone a ad a stocking, saying it was more
than a. elnb. Rowell sold bis share
in tho paper box factory for $1,200. He
bad r,o other property ercept his house, I
which lie partly purchased with money realized
from the sale.
He testified that many of Roweli's actions
before the time of the shooting led him to
regard him as insane. Mr. Thomas, the reporter
who found the bullet on the pillow
the day after the shooting, and Mr. Turmer,
the undertaker who laid out Lynch's remains,
were the iast witnesses for the prosecution.
District Attorney North then announced
that the case for the stats was
dosed. Some excitement is caused by an
alleged interview with Mrs. Rowell, in The
Spirit of The Times, a weekly paper of BataTrin
Tt- rhAnr?s Palmer with havine made
improper advances to Mrs. RowelL These
she repulsed, and she regarded Palmer as
only being-jealous because she thought more
of Lynch than she did of him. The strongest
possible language is quoted as having been
used by Mrs. Rowell, and contemptible epithets
areapplied to Palmer. Mrs. Rowell
was completely overcome whenshe heard of .
it and denounced it as absolutely and unqualifiedly
false in every respect. The interview
is said to have been written by a
former neighbor of the Rowells, who a few
days ago made a friendly call on her and
with whom she talked somewhat freely., but

?nc. Mr. Newberry opened in support of the
measures and made a fierce onslaught upon
Mahone, whom he termed a vile slanderer
of Virginia. He arraigned him for leaving
his-seat ia the last, congress and taking up
abode fn Richmond for the purpose of dictating
to the legislature; for assuming to
himself an air of authority foreign to the
customs of a free people, and for making the
legislature pass laws to advance his own interest
and gratify his insasiated greed for
plunder,: place and power. * 'Think of it for
a moment," Mr. President apd senators," said
the speaker, "and then bite your lips and
hang your beads in shame, and with uplifted
band and a firm resolve let us swear that the
c4>nH nmrawha oooirv m fWc <Srir
house. Let the seal of our condemnation be
placed upon it. It-is abHghtontha fair name
of Virginia, an insuit to the manhood of ber
people, and such conduct is 'without'a parallel
in her history, and, so far as I know, is
without a parallel in this great nation. It is
an insult to the virtue and intelligence of a
free people, and a usurpation of a power not
to be tolerated under any circumstances.
Every instinct of-our nature and every emotion
of our souls revolts" at the thought of a
petty tyrant and puny boss advertising us tc

of voice; 'Virginia for sale! Who'll buy,
who'll buy? Yes, Mr. President, Virginia
was offered for sale and was sold. But thank
God sto was not delivered. Though fettered
and. bound as she was, she is still free. She
has broken the withes of stalwartisms with
which she was bound, and her brave and
noble people are free. And, sir, permit me
fco say here, that they have been down to the
bands of the leprous taint of bossism and
have consecrated their hearts anew to the
cause of human freedom and mean to strike
for a higher and a purer Anglo-Saxon civilization.
"
The speaker at some length argued to
show that Mahone, while he was being elected
to the United States senate as a democrat,
was intriguing with Grant and Cam-,
eron and giving assurances that he would
cast the readjcster influence for Grant. He
charged further that, being elected as a
democrat to represent a democratic ueupie,
ilalione had now gone over to the republicans,
if they would have him. He has
made Virginia a mere pocket borough in
the bauds of a trading politician whose vanity
has outgrown his discretion and whose
patriotism is measured by his purse. The
speaker bitterly anathematized Mahone as a
traitor and traducer, who had spread abroad
lies about bloodshed in Virginia. Mr. Newberry
said this was one of the most peaceful
and law-abiding states in the Union. He insisted
that the people of Virginia had the
right to demand Mahone's resignation.
His Story Xot Credited.

Havana, Jan. 25.?Advices from H^yti
give the prrticulars oZ the manner in which
the capitulation of Jeremie and Jacmel was
effected with the assistance of representatives
of foreign powers. On December
21 President Salomon informed the foreign
representatives and consuls that Jerexnie had
surrendered, and that one of the clauses
of capitulation was that several of the
'oreign dipplomats or consuls should assist in
the execution of the treaty of surrender.
The president at the same time asked tho
representatives to assist him in the consolidation
of peace, and to accede to the fulfillment
of the clause of stipulation. Tho
foreign ministers and consuls after considering
the request agreed to- send three men of
war of different nationalities to Jercmie, carrying
as many commissioners, one of each

tha minister of the United States and the consals
of Spain and England as said commissioners.
These parties left Port au Prin ee for
their destination on the evening of Dec. 2G,
on the Amer/can corvette Swatara, English
schooner Fo&ro, and Spanish gunboat Jorge
Juan, arriving the following morning at
Jeremie. They landed immediately, and after
conferring with the revolutionaiy committee
in the town and the general commanding
the government troops, who assured
them that their presence had been especially
desifed in order to prevent disturbance, witnessed
at three o'clock in the afternoon the
entry of the government troops into the city
and forts. Tho arrival of the troops caused
no commotion whatever, and next day the
rfrtaivnAii to Port au Prince in
their respective vessels.'
Before Jeremie surrendered the govjernmenttr
oops had taken by assault the villages
of Corail and Pestel. Jacmel was driven to
capitulation for want of provisions. The
revolutionary committee of this town know- '
ing'tbat President Salomon had excluded its
members from the amnesty whiqh be had
accorded to the rest of the insurgents, took
refuge at the vico consulate's and left to
ineir military caiei m? uuh <jl

The expedition landed at Tenom. in the

The rajah of Tenom, |whose tribe liad

and refused all proffers of ransom which
were made by the Dutch authorities for the
release of the captives. The expedition effected
a landing at Tenom on the 7th inst,,

and burned the rajah's capital. The resistance
made by the natives was desperate.

HUNTING A DESPERADO
^Long Island the Sceno of Another
Rural Murder.
Farmer Spra^ne Stricken Down In
His Barn?His Wife Assaulted and
Bobbed?Chase and Capture
of the Criminal.
Brooklyn, Jan. ?.-jur. tseaiy oprague,
who, with his wife Sarah, resides at East
Meadow, L. I., on a farm on the line of the
Stewart Central railroad, abont five miles
from the village of Hempstead, was tho
victims of a terrible crime yesterday. The
nearest house is Mr. Peter Pettit's, which
is one quarter of a miie cast, and Mrs.
Sprague's brother's, about the same distance
to the west. About seven o'clock in tho
morning Mr. Sprague, after starting tho
kitchen fire, went out to the barn, 100 feet
from the house, to take care of his stock,
leaving Mrs. Sprague in the kitchen preparing
the breakfast. He had not been gone
from the house more than twenty minutes
when Mrs. Sprague was surprised by the
entrance into the kitchen of a negro wearing
a heavy plush cap and light eolored overcoat
The latter was covered with blood.
She at once asked him what he wanted.
"I want money. I will kill you," be shouti
d, and seizing her by the hair, struck her a
stinging blow in the moutb, catting her lip
and loosening her teeth. When he entered
the house he bad in his hand a flat iron bar
(fish plate, used to join railroad rails) about
1 wo fret in length. This piece of iron, which
tvas covered with blood, he laid down on tho
mat by the kitchen door.
Mrs. Sprague said to him: "Have you
killed my husband?^ and he replied, "No;
but I will kill you if you do not get me tbe
money."
Mrs. Sprague then started to get' the money,
going through the- dining room to the
parlor, at the southwest corner of the house.
She took her pocketbook, which contained
'$33 in gold, silver and bills, from the bureau
and laid it on the table. The negro at once
picked it up, and while he was trying to
open it she ran out of tbe front door and
across the fields to Mr. Petfit's. whom she
alarmed, -and then to her brother's. -Mr,
Pettit with Mr. Carnian and others went immediately
to Sprague's, and on going to the
barn found -the-door closcd. Outsida and near
the barn were two bundles of cornstalks,
where they bad been laid by Mr. Sprague.
?0n opening the barn door a terrible sight
met their gazo. Lying on the barn floor
near the door lay Mr. Sprague covered with
blood and unconscious. Close by the'door
was a large pool of blood, and blood was
spattered on the maager and feed bags. He ,
was at once taken to the house and Drs.
Searing and Ludlow, of Hempstead village,
were hastily summoned. They dressed his
wounds, but were not able to restore him to
consciousness. He has ten terrible gashes in
tne front part of the head and his skull is
fractured. The wounds were mad* wi th the j
narrow edge of a fishplate.
Mr. Sprague bad upon his person 5130,
which was upon him in an.inside vest pocket
All the-other pockets of his clothing had j
been searched, as was evidenced bv the
blood marks upon them.
The murderer, as'soon as*Mrs. Sprague
ran out-of the bouse shouting for help, must
have immediately left, as he was not seen by
Pettit or Carman. Fifty men and boys
armed with guns, pistols and clubs are m
pursuit of the fugitive, tracking him toward
Westbury. In a dirt pile about two hundred
yards from the house, on the line of
Stewart's Central road, his cap that he had
thrown away was found and further on his
nwpiwmt. At the-store of Edward Kelsev.
in Westbury, he purchased a hat, coat and
pair of boots, and also a pocketbook, a *
said ho was about to go to Syossett. When
the train arrived Mr. Kelsey told him ''that
the train went to Greonport, and for him
to wait for the next one," which
he did. Officer Robert Pratt-, of Hiefesviile,
who was on the next train^ was informed
-of it and ho stopped off and- arrested
him. Officers Ayres and Buckler soon after
arrived, ana ine tare? juicers, wim tuxficnlty,
prevented the excited crowd from
lynching him. He was finally-taken to
Hicksville before Justice Edgar Davis, and
at noon driven over to Mr. Sprague's house.
Mr. William -Sprague, a brother of the
wounded man, struck tha prisoner a powerful
blow in the face, and would have ' killed
him had r.ot wiser counsels prevailed. Mrs.
Sprague fully identified- him as the man who
struck her in the morning and to whom she
gave the money. He was then taken back
to Hicksville, where the greatest excitement
prevailed last evening, and renewed threats
of lynching were freely made. He was
strongly guarded, and taken to the Queens
county jail at Long Island City on a late
train.
It is supposed he tried to enter the house
during the night, as marks were found upon
one of the side windows, showing that the
attempt had been made to pry it open. He
then, it appears, went- into the barn. When
Mr. Sprague came out he knocked him
down as soon as he got on the barn fl;or.
Mr. Sprague is forty-tbreo years of age and
a strong, athletic mao. Mrs. Sprague is a
small lady and is about the same age as her
husband. The arrested, man gives his name
as Cbarles A. Smith, and says that he resides
in Poverty HoHow, in tbe: town of
Rj?-c Wo ic ?bf>nfc tiiirtv ve?rs fit
ageT light build, very dark and bas a heavy
moustache and side whiskers. At a late
hour he was folly identified as Charles A.
Bug?, of Oyster Bay. Mr. Sprague is still
alive- and his physicians have some hope of
his recovers1. , ,
A Bloody Tragedy.
Chicago, Jan. 26.?A United Press special
from Elgin, I1L, reports a bloody tragedy
which occurred on the "Wetmore farm, four
miles west of Elgin. Wm. Coombs and his'
wife have for .months past quarrelled over
vKyf+one -fir/1 W T?AW
UUUICOUV; JiiUVVbi tMJW vwuw W v.s^.
and his-wife dying. The corpse of the husband
was found just as it fell, with a gash ib
the throat large enough to put an open hand
in. The bed clothing, walls and fioor were
saturated with blood, giving evidence of an
awful struggle. Mrs. Coombs, with knife in
band and bleeding to death, bad managed to
reach a neighbor's house, leaving a trail of
blood in the snow. Coombs was an Englishman,
well known, in Elgin. His first wife
died in England, his second wife was divorced,
and the third and last is the one who
killed him. "When the woman learned her
husband was dead, she exclaimed. "Thank
God." -The neighbors think, from the facts
known, that Coombs in a frenzy attempted
to kill his wife, and that she killed him. The
-coroner's inquest may throw some light upon
tho case.
Milwaukee's Sensation.
'. Milwaukee, Jan. 20.?The suit of Daniel
Wells, jr.,, against Peter McGeoch for an accounting
of the great land deal of last July
is the sensation of the day in Milwaukee.
McGeoch's answer to'Wells' charges is a very
full expose of the great land deal. The-complaint
is exceedingly long. Among other
-tfiiflgsffsffows that there was a regularly
im nnrnTiflflt knhwoAn MftGfiooh And
Wells and that both woro to ba equally liable
for all losses and to cqualJy divide the
profits. McOeoch says that Wells was
worth $5,000,000 at the time of the land
collapse, and that when he was called upon
to "whack up" his part he made representation
that he was not worth $1,000,000 and
that all kinds of fraudulent claims and misrepresentations
were made to get rid of
paying one-half of the losses. The compact
shows that the parties made and lost many
millions of dollars in the three years they
were dwiling together. The case is one of
the most important ever tried in the local
courts, and about all the prominent lawyers
in the city are engaged on either one side or
the other. McGeoch concludes by demanding
$1,000,000 damages to his business and cliaricter.
ban rRAXClSCO, Jan. Zi.?IE was annouuced
yesterday that the case of the
wMnw Colton aeainst the Central Pacific
Railroad company, had, at the instance of
the defence, been postponed for a week. It
is believed that this is only preliminary to
an annoncement that the defendants have
concluded to accede to the demands of Mrs.
Colton, and that a settlement will be made
with her on a more equitable basis than that
which she accepted immediately after hsr
husband's death. It is understood that the
recent publication in full of the Huntington*
Colton letters has alarmed the defense, and
that they fear the books of the Western
