1878. A DANGEROUS DOSE. The Son a Wealthy Resident of tbe Ninth Ward Takes a Quantity of Laudanam iu his Beer at Cast ft iv Tork. Yesterday aftsmoon Edward Jlaguire, nged 20, the son of one of th9 wealthiest residents or tha Ninth Ward, residing on tha corner of Washington avenue and Pacific street, and also the brother In law of Sergeant Lamb, of tiro Tenth Precinct, entorod tho saloon of John Steel, corner of Alabama and Atlantic avenuos, Eaat New York, and called for a glass of beer. It was given to him and ho emptied the contents of a small phial into It and drank it.

It seemed to take an instantaneous effect upon his system, causing him to fall helplessly on the floor. Ofilcsr Naoger wss oallod, and, with the assistance of several bystanders, auc ceeded in removing the young man to the station house. Dr. Furgang was summoned. Oa hlB arrival be administered an emetic and had him walked up nnd down bstweon two policomen.

Three emstlcs wero administered before the desired effect was produced. Ho was then walked for soveral hours. Ho is now out of danger. He informed the doctor this morning that OBITUARY, lsabelliowber. The telegraph brings intelligence of the death of Miss Isabel Lowber, oldest daughter of ox Wator Commissioner B.

J. Lowber, at Richfield Springs. Miss Lowber returned from Europe last Spring and early In the Summer, with tha other members of the family, want to the Davenport House at Richfield Springs, where aho remained up to the time of her death. About ten days ago she was attacked by typhoid fever. Mr.

Lowber, who waa at his home in this city was notified of her sickness and hastened to her bedaide. Miss Lowber passe 1 away early yesterday morning after the most intense saffor ing. The remains were brought to this city to day. Deceased was a native of tho Oity of New York, but lived In Brooklyn noarly all her life. She was well known in society, and was generally osteomed for her amlablo manners and her generally excollent qualities.

For aevoral years the deceased lady had been a painstaking and enthusiastic amateur artist. Some of her works in oil possessed considerable merit and her friends balleved that a brilliant future waa before hor In hor career at tho easel. Several of her best works were displayed in recen exhibitions of the Brooklyn Art Association, all of which reoaived favorablo criticism. Miss Lowber was a pupil of Professor John B. Whittaker.

The Professor spoka regretfully the death of his pupil this morning and paid a high trlo ute to her character. Sne was educated ot Professor West'aJBrooklyn Heights Seminary and tho Paokor Institute! Miss Lowber's two younger slaters survive hor. No arraugements have yet been made for the funeral, tentiary upon any proceedings, either by habeas corpux or otherwise, and that ha had stoppod a practice which had been quite general heretofore. I Bald I would see Judge Moore about it, and atarted to tho Brooklyn Club to And htm, but was unable to do so. That afternoon or the noxt mornlne I saw Mr.

Ridgway, and he was clamorous about my taking bail. He suggested at loast halt a dozon bondsmen, all of whom I refused I slid "l'ou must get me flrat class bondsmen, oaly." When bail was accepted Mr. Wernberg was here and approved of it whilo I was absent. While conversing with Mr. Ridgway about the ball I asked him what kind of a person tho woman was what she had attempted to steal and if she was a professional thief.

He said ehe was not a professional thief and that she had sttemptad to a shawl worth $30. It was not until I talked with Judge Moore, the next day, that I learned that she was a professional thief. While I bolieve everything has been regular, so far as the Bteps taken to release her are concerned, and whils I propose to press the ojso before the next General Term, I am frank to admit that it was a groat mistake to allow the woman to leave tho Penitentiary, and she would not have done so had 1 understood bar character aud antecedents. If the judgment is affirmed. rearrest her if hor capture is possible, and I Ibink thero will be no difficulty in finding hor.

I desire to throw no blame on my assistants in this inattor. I have no doubt that my assistants acted in good faith, as I have done. MARIA L. IICBRARU'S WILL. The will of tha late Maria L.

From the year 1803 to tho year 1873, the net imports Into the United States largely exceeded the value of the exports of domestio merchandiae from the United States, tho excess of importa ranging from thirty nine millions of dollars to one hundred aud eighty two millions.

Work (hat Cost $70,000 Slowly but Surely Destroyed. In 180!) tho Legislature passed a law regard log a suivey of Gravosend, Flatbush, Lots and New Utrecht, tho laying out of street lino tho towns namod and tho protection of surveyor' marks, etc The act provided for six commissionors to be tho Supervisors of tho five jwaa, witn tho Chairman of the Hoard of Supervisors. This Commission cousistod of Messrs. W. J.

Ofboruo, J. L. Ityder, P. s. Crook, W.

J. Cropsey, J. J. StiUwell and G. Sclicnck.

Bamuel McElroy was given charge of tho survoy, which was known as tiio Kings Courtly Towu Survey, and iu the July following tbo passago of the legislative act work was commence 1, and it waa not until November. 1871, that th survey was completed. Engineer McElroy and his assistant laid out a perfect network of streets and avenues throughout the country towns, extending their rsurvey eron to Coney Island. Tho principal street or baae linos iro marked with what surveyors call street monuments, which are of granite, thresonl a half feet Ion? and aavon inches square on top. Thisc stones ware Banx where street lines intersected each othsr and tha Unas wore sunk in the face of tbo monument.

Altogether thro wera 2,300 monuments set, and they were all in position a few years ago, bu! now MANY nAVE BEEN KEMOVED, and the cost of resetting them will amount to a considerable sum. When Eighty ixth streot, which runs through tho towns of Now Utrechet aud Gravasend, was opened, no less than seventy monuments wera dug out, and in many eases wre burled. To reset the monuments on this street alono, an experienced aurvoyor says, would cost $500, aud thts is ouly a sample oiso of whero tho surveyor's work wis destroyed. Tha total amiunt of" money spout on tha survey was $73,118, doduoting from this tho cost of atreiot monuments and tho salaries of members of the commission, who received $500 par annum each, thero remained over $50,000 which was the actual cost of the work performed by the different eugineers employed and their assistants. Doside the street monuments destroyed on Eighiy slxth streot a number were dug out whan Twenty second avonue was made, a like loss was sustained by the opening of Sixtieth street, and quite a number wero doslroycd on Lefleris place, in Flatbush.

Mr. Harry McElroy who was assistant engfaoar on ths work, says that at least 200 of tho street monuments have baon dug buried or disturbed, so that thy are wor.o than useless. WhilB the survey was being mads a law waa pissed making It a misdemeanor for any parson to romove aurroyor's mark, and impoiliis a heavy fine on any person who should ba found guilty of tha offonsj. Tho law, it seems, has become a doad letter, for never sine the first monumont was sunk ha; a person becu arrested for transgreisiug this rule. When, iu November, 187, the survey was complete 1 the core of the street moaumeats anl other mirks bj.

came the duty of the offl. ialB of the different towns. But it would seem that the paiple of tho country towns are, as a rule, supreni dy Indifferent as to whothor tho street lines are destroyed or not. In ploughing aud other work, tho fsr.Ti?rs disturb the street monuments, much to thy annoyancs of (surveyors. Thesa monuments are supposed to oa a tiiliJo to surveyors who may ba engaged in opening the streets or avenues the county, aud ale for those woo havo private work to do iu the towns.

Mr. lioren was engaged working on Twenty second avemitf, and was unable to flud an important mark of whioh he was in search.

After a deal ot measuring he did find It, and on tbe monument was built a lire, ovr which hunjf a pot containing the dinner ot savoral German Hold hands. Uncle Tunc, who hail long searched unsuccessfully for the atnue, was so enrage! upon finding the (laid hands lining It for a hearch stone, that lie kicked the pot sod its contents from over tho flro, much to tho consternation of the persons who wero awaiting dinner. An LtoLE reporter conversed with a we'd known surveyor to day, and speaking of th niannor to which monuments had buu dostroyod, tho Utter said that if no preciutlons were taken to protocr. tho stonos, that within a very few years a re survi'y will havo to bo mad and the cost will be alnmst as great as that of tho original survey.

Shooting for a Fox Giro and a Thousand Cartridges A Fine Day with Good Birds Dr. Wynn the Winner Splendid Shooting. Yesterday afternoon about ono o'clock a Jelly party of pleotj shooters members of tho Brooklyn Gn Club might hare bson seen wending their way to the Club grounds at Dexter's, for the purpose of inaugurating the shooting in tho new prize match of the Club. The day was lovely for tho sport, and the oocasion was ono of more than ordinary interest, as the intrinsic value of tho prize to be contended for was calculated to develop unusual efforts on the part of contesting members to win it. In fact it was a prize worth fighting for, and the "craok shota" of the Cluo had primed themselves ready for tha occasion, and they one and all had entered upon the oouteit with a spirit of earnestness for tha work not always evinced In the ordinary club medal or oup priae matches.

THE PBIZE in this oontost is a valuable Fox make double barreled breech loading gun, of the finest workmanship and combining tho latest improvements. It cost one nun dred and fifty dollars, and it is to becomo the property of the member of the olub who is the first to win it three times during tho season's shooting, commencing on August 27. ''She's a beauty I tell you," remarked ouo of the nnmbars, ss he hold the gun up and took sigot at an imaginary "blue rock driver," and that opinion was iodorBed by all tho ambitious aspirants for the coveted prize. Tho majority of the mcmbs took the rapid transit train at 1 P. with tha ide of ODanectiag with the Cypress Hills road train; but the latter left a minute bptore the transit train arrived, so tho party had to wait lor tho next steam oar.

Ia tho tims tho one horee car whiob runs to Jamaica, arrived, aad ao the party jumped into that, and with a retaining fee to cho driver to ''hurry up and boat the rapid transit car" they urged him to win and he did it too. It was ttftor two o'clock before there were a sufficient number of members present to BEGIN THE SIATCII, but at 2:35 Mr. Martiu, as roforae, called Dr. Bri Iges to tho Bland, and five good birds having been placed in tho traps, tho Doctor's "Are you ready?" was duly answered, and at tho word "pull" up flew a driving bird, which the Doctor grassed neitly with his first barrel, aud then the ooatest went on without interruption The rules required each contestant to Bhoot at ten birds, at twenty six yards rise and from five trap3, aud in case of a tie to shoot at three additional birds. "What kind of birds have you got for us to day, Dexter inquire .1 Dr.

Wynn, as he came ou tho ground and tjoH look at things, he being in charge of the match in the temporary absinoj of tha President of tho club. Dexter assured him that ho had soma first rate birds and that he had picked out a lot of hard drivers especially to test the Doctor's skill. "All right," replied the Jolly disciple of Esculapius, "I'll knock thorn over just as fast as you can trap them, old boy, you bet," and that is just what he did do. THE FIRST BOUND brought to the soore no leas than thlrteau lontastan's, aud they includod nearly the whole shooting strength of the Club, no less than five doctors being on hand in the match to enjoy "the slaughter of tha innocents," the killing prooasB of the day being, of course, in their special lino of business. Following Dr.

Bridges cam 3 another doctor who is recorded under an assumed name, and after him followed that old sport of the Club Gildorsloeve, the genial host of tha Bank, Blank lay. Madison, tha gun maker, "Doc." Wynn, Young Wood with the only muzzle loader In the matoh ind the veteran Robinson, all but tha latter dropping their birds in good style, Robinson being the first to miss a bud in the round, an easy lnoomer getting away from him. Then oame Messrs. West, Elmendorf, Dr. Akin, Williams in his velvot jaokat and Dr.

Zellner, all but Williams "grassing" their birds, a strong driver getting away from both barrels of the latter's gun. Now commenced the match iu earnest, and tho result of THE FTBST FIVE BOTJHB3 was looked forward to with interest. Only two birds missed In the first round of thirteen contestants was decidedly good shooting, the birds proving to ba very strong on tho wing after they got up, and soma of them very lively drivers, able to carry away considerable shot. The seoond round ended similarly to tho first as regards tha number of birds killed, elovjn being dropped out of the thirteen shot at, West and Eimen dorf thfa time recording mtssjd birds, both bding strong drivers. In the third round the birds proved to be more than ordinarily aotlve and strong on tho wing, five of them getting away, Messrs.

Steel, Blankley and Akin scoring their first misses, alia Robinson aud Williams added one eaoh to their fall urea. Dr. Akin's bird fell dead Just outside the boundary line, but all tha others got to the woods. Only four birds were killed by the first barrel in this round, it boinj the poorest display of the ten rounds. The shooting In tha ensuing round, howofer, compensated for it, for EVEBY BIRD WAS KILLED In the round, six boing dropped by tho flr.it barral, and the birds were good ones, too, half of them being either drivers or lively quartering birds.

Dr. Bridges and Blankley made beautiful shots In tbis round and "old man Robinson" dropped his bird neatly. In the next round ten out of the thlrtoen klllod their birds, and the majority in the bast style of the art. It was now time to take observations as to the position of the contestants in the match, as half of the ten rounds had been shot. Oa tho list of those who had QBASSED EVEBT BIRD were Dr.

Bridges, Madison, Dr. Wynn, Wood, and Dr. Zellner. five out of the thirteen, and five others only had ouo miss charged to eaoh of them, a record fully showing the excellence of the shooting. In the five rounds, too, no less than twenty one of the sixty five birds shot at had baon killed with the first barrel, and of those at which the second barrel had been used not more than half may bo said to have been necessary to the killing.

Some of the second barral shots, too, were regular beauties. After flvo rounds had been shot there was AN INTERMISSION, to discuss tho pork and beans lunch and to "smile" at Dr. Wyun'a expense, as acting President. Whon the second five rounds were commenced the club ohaffers gathered on tho seats at tho house and kept up a running fire at each of the contestants as he stood up at the score. Somo of them wero indifferent to It, but it had ita effect on others, in diverting their attention from their work, and it would be best io this special match to drop il in uturo, as it not exaotly tho square thing to do.

The sixth, sevonth and eighth rounds saw some excellent shooting done. Ths birds ran much auova the average iu strength aud aotivjty, and all the akill of tjjo members was require! to bring them down, It) tRJ sixth round, Dr. Bridget Joined the crowd who had talBsed birds, and in the seventh Madison follosred suit, but ths close of the eighth saw Messrs. Wynn, Wood and Zillner with every bird shot at reoorded as killed. In the ninth, however, Dr.

Zellner missed bis first bird, and then Wynn and Wood were left alone in their glory. THE TENTH P.OTJND. was now watohed with eager interest. Dr. Bridges la off with a well killed driver, and all the others, sxoopt Elmendorf and Williams, dropped their birds, the majority being incomers.

This left Messrs. Wynn and Wood as the only shooters to enter the tie series, and ndw came the climax of the match. Dr. Wynn led off and fl lively quarterer got up from the trap, and though nit by tha flrJt he waa getting away when the second dropped him In splendid style, a round ot applause gteeting the shot. It was now Wood's turn, and he getting aa Incomer grassed his bii'fl easily.

THE SCOBS. 2 4 5 6 7 B9M From Yesterday's Four O'clock Edition. BLACK LENA. Judge Gilbert's of how he was Imposed on. His Honor Tells Startling Story to an Enle Reporter A Full and Circura stantial Review of the Extraordinnry Escape of Mary Morris from the Penitentiary.

After dark on the evening of Wednesday laat, Mary Morris, otborwlss Blank Lena, a notor ioua shoplifter, was rolensod from tho Peuiteutlary, and conveyed away by Warden Ed. Crummey and Mr. James Rldgway, her altornoy. Ic April, 1875, Black Lena and Catharine Martin were arreated for stealing in Journey Burnham's store on Atlantic aveuua. Taoy wero identified as thietea of a most dan9roua and successful clasa.

They were known to hare been attached to tho gang run by Mrs. Mendelbaum, a notorious fence, formerly residing on. Water streot, but now occupying a dft'olllng on jitreetj between Second and Third avenues. Kew York. Detectives familiar with the character of Blaok rjfla deserlDo her as one of tho most exparl shopiTfters fn tho country, and hold in high estimation by Mother Mendelbauui and the fraternity.

It was said that, doductia? her corummissions, she was worth from twenty to thirty thousand dollars a year to her employers, AT THE TIME OF HEB CAPTURE la Brooklyn, sua was believod to be no longer em ployed by Mother Meodslboun, but a male firm of rocoiverB of stolan goods. Imnieiiately after the ar rest of Black Lena and her oompanioD, gentlemen of suave manners and apparent respoctability came from Now i'ork and offered bail. District Attornoy Britton, tnoiring that ho had in his power two oxpjrt crlmi nnls who had long prjyod on respectable merchants, refused bail, although it wis offered as bigtyia $20,000, Assistant District Attorney Tnoiuas Moora was stopped on Montague street and offered a largo bribe simply to use his influoaoa to gat the woman bailed, Of course he indignantly rcpjlled the offer and gave thopartj making it to understand that if he mida any further proposition of such a nature he would arrest him. Having failed to gt tb.3 woman admitted to ball, arrangements wero mada to socura their freedom in an other way. By the uae of money and tho aid of con feJerates, they escaped from jail, breaking the iroa bars, 6cilmg the walls, and getting olear between sunset and sunrise.

At the time Aras J. Williams was Sheriff. Ho used every eflort to capture the UBltives, but over a year passed without any succoss. They wore heard of in Canada, and at length in December, 1870, were captured in Bjston and forwarded to Brooklyn. On December 21, 187(5, thoy were tried in the Court of Sessions before Judge Henry A.

Moore and Justices of Sessions Wolfert and McKibban. They wero convictd and sentenced to the Penitentiary for four years and six months. black Lena's second escape. Lat week a reporter of the Egle diicoverel on file in the ofhcj of the County Clerk a bail bond in which it was recited that a bill of exceptions had boon al lowed aod a writ of error, with a stay, in tho case of Mjry Morris. Tho writ of error and tlie bill of eicop ibns ware not on file.

Mr. Ridgway said they were at the printer's, with the Distrkt Attorney'8 consent. An hour or two afLor thy imiuiry tho writ of error was li.ed. The next day tho bill of exceptions was filed. Mr.

Anthjny Barrr tt dofoudol the women on tbolr trial and ex Judg.i Troy was cailea in at the close of tha ciEe to sum up. Thoir connection with the caso closed with the trial. Mr. Justice Odhort, who granted the stay and al lowed tho bail bjnd, iold an Eagle reportor that Mr. lV ltfway appeared before him at his residence, on Ilomseu street, and an oihjer from tho District Attorney's oiliof! came with Mr.

Ridgway and said that ha was directed to say that the District Attjrnoy consented to tho ftay. Judge Moore said that tha bill of ex was ailiwed within tho last to weeks. It was not dated. Tha District Attornoy did not eervo any amendments. Judge Mooro's signature was in ono kind of ink, ex Wolferi's iu another, and ex JiUgo McXibben's in still another.

Above tho sigua tur'B, Judge Moore's name was signed in the samo handwriting as that in the papors, but it had been af terwarda crossed oat. Judge McICibben told tho ro porter that ho signed the bill in Mr. Itidgway'a oflico, before it was eigne! by Judge Wolfert in another placd, aud after it was eiguod by Judge Moore. No one of the three was present when the other signed. Both of the Justices of Sessions had been out or ofQca, ono tor ono year, and the other tor noarly two years, Mr.

Wolfert having gone out on 31, 1876, and Mr, MeKibbcn on December 31, 1877. Tho dates iu tha bill of exceptions seemed to have been LEPr BLANK PUBPOSELY by tho attorney who prepared the case. It would ap pear from a careful examination of the facts and the law, that thn pretended bill ot exceptions is no bill of exceptions at all, for the reason thit the right to make and file a bill of exceptions must be exeroised within ten days of tho trial, the same as in a civil case, there being no other or different rule in criminal matters, The Court, however, can extend the time by an order just 08 long as it pleases. If the bill is not made with iu ton days, and the time is not extendod by the Court, the right to make a bill of exceptions is gone. In this case no bill of exceptions was made within eighteen months, and at no time has an order extending the time been male by the Court, eltbor before or after tho expiration of the ten days allowing tho defendants to make or file a bill of exceptions.

It is also to be noted that the term of all the judges who held court on the trial has slnoe expired. Judge Moore has been re elected, and the justices of Sessions are both out of office, as already Btated, Under the circumstances, it is alleged, the signature of Judge Moore to the bill of exceptions amounts to no more than a mere certificate that the minutes of the stenographer are correct and the signatures of tho justices of Sessions, who, by the way, describe themaelves on the bill of exceptions, as "justices of sessions," is aa absolute nuiiity. If an order of tho Court had been regularly made, even at this iate day, allowing the defendant's application to make and file a bill of exceptions, such order would have to bo made by the Court as now constituted, and those judgos who constituted the Court at the time of tho trial could then oertify the bill. Without such an order thoir signature amounts to precisely nothing. If this view is correct THEEE IS IN BEAI.ITT NO BILL OF EXCEPTIONS in the cast, and the stay on the writ of error was improperly obtained on the representation ol a Supreme Court Judge, that there was a bill of exesptions in the case, and on the consent of the District Attorney that a stay should bo granted on such pretense of a bill of exceptions.

Now that tho attention of Mr. Justice Gilbert is called to the alleged imposition practiced on him, he may regard it as his duty to revoke the stay and direct a bench warrant to issue for the capture of the escaped criminal. There is little probability of finding; her. Still it would be a satisfaction to eoo this remarkable proceeding corrected, and such action by Justice Gilbert as indicated would be viewed as a preliminary step to tho calluig on persons ooncemed iu this outrage on justice to account for their doiugs. Justice Gilbert's atlontion might he also called to the fact that ono of tho boodsmen is an officer of tb.3 Supreme Court, and that it is not denied that the persona bailing hare oecn iuJemuined.

People are Beldoin indemnified, except in anticipation of a losa, and it is thought that it was fully contemplated to railroad the woman not only out of prison but out ot the reach of justios. In this aspect there are persons who characterise the proceeding as a conspiracy. Before trial, and at a time when guilt was not established and the presumption was of innocence, hail was refused, though offered to any amount, and BACKED BT A BBIBE TO BOOT. After trial before the court and jury, and after tha guilt of the party has been fully established, an 1 the hishest penalty Inflicted, and after she has undergone nearly two yoars of the punishment, it is oonsiderod very extraordinary that she should be bailed at all. She is bailed, however, iu Sl.SOQ, and the trifliug amount of bail is accounted for, by the pnblio, on one ground and one only A certain amount of money was undoubtedly put up to secure Black Lena's, escape from prison by prostituting the forms of law.

It was calculated that the woman was to escape, that the bail was to bo forfeited and the indemnitors were to pay the sum. As this had to come out of the whole sum put up, the smaller tha amount of bail ths mora there would be left to be divided among outsiders. One feature of the case ii striking, and that Is tho element of Becresy. If the proceeding had been regular the attorney would have followed his custom and given to the press for publication a case so fraught with interest aud full or credit to himself. On the other hand, howeveT, when he was asked about the truth of the report that proceedings were pending to get the woman out on ball, ha denied all about It and said that no Buch action was contemplated.

WHAT JUSTICE GILBERT BATS. The reporter spoke with Mr. Justice Gilbert this afternoon. He was very indignant at having been imposed ou. In anstver to questions hi feiated the oir cumstances attending the allowing of the ball bonds and the granting of the stay by him.

"Mr, Rldgway came into my study with the clerk from the District Attorney'i office, the same who usually appears before mo on behalf of tho District Attorney. Mr. Kidgway gave ma to understand that it the case of some poor woman, a domestic, who had been guilty of grand larceny, and that it was desired to release her. I asked for the bill of exceptions, and Mr. Ridgway aid that it was all right, and gave some excuse, which I forget, for not having it there.

I expressed unwillingness to grant the stay, but the olerk from the District Attorney's office assured me that il was all right, and that the Distriot Attorney consented. Thereupon I allowed the stay. The sureties did not come before me. as the clerk Bald they were acceptable. The woman, Mary Morris, was not before me, and there was no writ of habeni corput in the case.

I signed no order to discharge the woman, and I am not awaro how she got out of prison. I depended entirely On the representations made by Mr. Ridgway, and indorsed aud consented to by the representative of tho DiBtrlo Attorney. GENEBAl. OATMN'S EXT LANATIOS.

Id regard to the release of Mary Morris, Black Lena, the notorious shoplifter, from the Penitentiary, District Attorney Catlin thia afternoon made the following statement to an JIaqle reporter All I have to say is that I knew nothing about the bill of exceptions, the writ of erroi or the stay of proceedings until after they had all been grantod. How It bapened that Mr. Wernberg dlracted Colonel Oikey to go op and consent to a stay of proceedings I don't know, because I haven't soon Mr. Wernbarg. Mr.

Kidgway informed Colonel Oakey that Mt. Wernberg hat a stay should be consented to The flrBt I knew of it was when Mr. Wernberg informed me of the existence of a bill of exceptions, a writ of error and a stay of proceedings. Mr. Wernberg understood that it was a matter of right that hail should bo granted and wante to know if I would consent to it.

I said no that I had always been opposed to tin jase of people who were ncvint terms in tUo Pai Tlio Charges Made Against Two Officers who Took Fire Women to Chicago to ProTlde Them with Homes The Shocking: Immorality Prevalent in Suffolk County The Almshouso at Yaphank. There appeared in a Now York paper yesterday morning a telogram from Chicago which charged the Superintendent of tbe Poor of Suffolk County, L. Stephen It. Williams, and John Loudeo, keeper of the model Almshouse at Yaphank, with having been criminally Intimate with five young girls who had been inmates of the Almshouso, and that these officers had shipped tho girls to Chicago, insinuating that it was done to cover uo a scandal. The namos of these girls aro Lucy Downs, agod 23 Maggie O'Neil, aged 22 Sarah Uickotta, aged 24 Ellen Seeley, agrd 25, and Annie Elennen, aged 17.

The telegram from Chicago conclaled a8 follows According to Lucy's story, tne rottenness of the Yap. hank inatitution exesods anything over before heard of. Sho says adultery Is tho rule, aud is praciiced openly and without rebuke. WHO LTOY DOWNS IS. She is the daughter of Nathaniel Downs, River head.

Lucy was first ssen in Yaphank at four o'clock, one morning In March laat. She was poorly olad and famishing, having to make a hood ot her shawl. She very much resembled a person who had decamped in a hurry. Sho awoke the keeper of the little hotel at tho railroad dopp'ot, Sidney Newtown, and refused to tell where she had oome from. She rofused to go to bed because it wae near morning, and ho permlttol bar to 'J Z'' I ait by the fire, but, being appreuensive of her mental condition, he sat up to watch ner.

Nowton sent to the Almshouse for Keeper Louden in the afternoon, saying that he thought Lucy was a lunatic. J. Malison Wells, ono of tho being at the Almshouse, went and saw the woman, and, after half an hour's questioning, reported to Mr. Loudeu that ha could not understand her case. He b3d the impression that he had seen har and two othors in Greonport a few days prior on a bonder.

Dr. Baker, of the Almshouse, saw her, but could not learn a aingle faot. Louden did not go to sea her. Next day, Louden and Newton both wont lo New York, and Mrs. Newton bnujht the girl to tha Almshouse, and Mise Carso matron of ths lusaus department, placed them in a room because thiro was plenty of them unoccupied there, an addition having been made to the building.

People who had sean hor were unanimous in the opinion that she was a lunatic, and told Loudeu so. On tha following day Louden saw her, and when he questioned har sharply she demanded to be released. It was storming, and he said that it was not fit for a person to go. but if sho knew any peraon in the violnlty he wiuld Bend her there in a wagon. There being' Borne doubt about hsr sanity, ho would not take the responsibility of releasing her, as sho might freeza to death.

The noxt day, by shrewd questioning, he learned from her her name, place of residence, aud that she had given birth to a child, which she said was doad, but she refused to loll who the father was. She WENT ON HEB KNEES AND BEOOED not to be Bent home. She bad a stepmother with whom ahe had quarreled, and she upset the table, broke tha dlBhes and ran away to escape punlthmeut at her fathor's hands. She said he would have to take her borne a corpse if at all. She contended that Bhe would never speak to, or see, hor father again.

She had 32.50 in her dress pocket and wanted to travel. Mr. Louden learned that her child had been born some years before, and from that time until she rpade hr appearance in Yaphank, Bhe had bean kept a prisoner io a room in her father's house. The roason ia ot vious. Louden sent for Mr.

Downs, who brought with him Dr. and Mrs. Luco, to havo his daughter's mental condition inquired into. Dr. Baker, the county physician, met Dr.

Luca by appointment. Downs ha 1 live children, and all but Lucy were dead. Tje physicians disagrood. Dr. Luce said sho was insane before the examination bogan.

Dr. Baker did not think so after tha examination. Mrs. Luce disagreed with herhmband. Mr.

Downs said he naver saw any indication of insanity in his diugator but once, and then she threw som explosive sub itaiici into the stove and blew it into Go Bhe said to hor father, I want to sea you." He had brought her some clothing and she refused to racaive it. He said he could not take her home if he did ha would have to put her iu jail. Ho expreiaod himsalf as willing to pay her bord in the Almshouse, but never did. Mr. Louden found a place for her to work, caring for two children, but she refiisoj to do it.

She work. well, howovor, overseeing six msana womeu the institution. At this time THE OTHER FOUR OIRLi bad baon in the Almshouse for some time. Th bad given birth to one or mora chlldron, though uumar ried, and the children wero old enough ti weao. Those four girls were orpuaiiB.

who had bean taken from asylums in New York or Brooklyn. The evil in the past two years had increased so frightfully that something had to bs done to relieve the poorhousea and reduce the burden of the taxpayers Many of tbo girls were intelligent onough to appreciate thoir deplorable situation, and to seo that there was no chance for them to reform where they were known They were all willing to work. The question arose where to placo them.and it was thought that tho West would be the best field. Tho girlB had matrimonial aspirations. The matter was canvassed in June.

The Town Overseers indorsed it, and subsequently the Hoard of Supervisors. When Mr. Louden laid the sohemo before the girls they said they would be only too glad to go. Two of their children had been adopted out and two remained in tho Almshouse. Mr.

Louden promised the girls that it they became ABLE TO 8UPPOBT THEIK CH1LDBBN be would incur tho responsibility of forwarding them. The Overseers appropriated $50 for the oxpeosei of each gir), and Mr, and Mrs. Louden, at their own expense, furnished them with changes of olothing. The Downs girl had never been considered a pauper, and wbb not to be included in the party, but she bogged to bo taken along, saying that Loudan could pay hor expenses out of ths $32 50 bo held for her. She was treated like the others by Mr.

Louden the matter of clothing, and he paid har traveling expenses. It was dotorminod to take them to Omiha, aud the etart waa made on July 29, Mr. Louden and Superintendent Williams accompanying thorn. Tlckots were purchased for Omaha, uarofui inquiry having been made beforehand as to whore female labor was most in domand. Tlie party stopped over at Cnicago because Mr.

Loudeu was prostratsd by ono of Job's comforters, and for two days be was Beriousiy 111 with fever. They put up at the Oalt House. Four of tha girls secured situations in Cuieago within two days, one in a private family and throe In a hotel, as pastry cook, chambermaid and scrub woman. Miss. Downs was not 111 for either of those positions, and would not taie one of them, but she was promised a position aa linen girl, or In charge of the silver in a diy or two in tha same hotel.

In the meantime ahe waa to have her board for making herself generally useful. Each girl was given what remained of the $50 appropriated tor expanses. Mlsa had her $33.50. There was no trouble finding placss for them. Fearing that th girls might need a iriend to aivis) with.

Mr. Williams went to one of the charitable bureaus and arranged for that. The people who employed the girls were not deceived as to their charaoter. After placing tho girls, Mr. Louden and Mr.

Williams wont to Omaha prospecting, knowing that there wero many other women to be provided for. Yesterday a letter was recoived from Aonls Elennen, in wbloh she said that they wero al) well and happy, and contonted with their positions. Mr. Loudeu thinks that Miss Downs haB fallen into trouble. All the people employed in tbo Almshouse say that Mia Downs is not truthful.

Sho has frequently male charges of immorality against some of the best oltizens of Riverhead, inoluding two cl ergymen, and investigation proved them to bo false THE YAPHANK ALMSHOUSE is as woll managed as any Institution of its kind In this State. John Louden has been keeper for live years. Lately an insane department has beon added. There is an exclusive female department, and males are not allowed there unattended by the matron or her assistants. Mr.

Louden lives iu the Almshouse with his wito aud four ohlldren. There are three matrons and several servants. Tnire is a farm oonneoted with it of 170 acres, part of which has been cloared by the paupers. It wos part ot the barrens, and Is now yielding flue crops. Tae produce raised on the farm maintains the institution.

State paupers are kept here. There are now 200 pauper and insane Inmates. One of the man is a negro aged 101 years, and bis wife is over 90. They have been paupers tor 25 years. The Institution has oost over $70,000.

It costs a little over $16,000 a year to run It. Tbe average number of personB maintained throughout the year fa 270. The State Board of Charities and Local Yjslt lng Committee have frequently Indorsed Mr. Lou denrs management. The Board of Supervisors investigated charges ot oruelty and found them groundless oniy last week.

There are persons who desire the position of keeper, and they are ever busy exaggerating the slightest rumor. The strongest Indorsement Mr. Louden hog Is in the faot that he is a ipublican, and is sustained by a Democratic Board ot Supervisors. Tae Superintendents of the Poor have requested the Board of Supervisors to investigate the charges made by illas Dowua. UP AT THOBPhO.VS.

John Roach on the Decline of American Commerce. The Congressional Labor Investigation Committee, composed of Messrs. Hewitt. Rico and Thompson, lutend making stremious efforts to wind up their sessions in New York, this afternoon. It Beems scarcely possible, however, that thoy will be able to gel through with the several witnesses whom they have yet to oxamlne.

Among these witnesses is Mr. John Roach, who is expectad to give some important testimony rogarding a protective tariff. Mr. Moore, a well known tariff writer, under tbe nom de plume of "Tha Pardee Merchant, will also give his views. The Committoe wUl adjourn to moot in Pittsburg, some ten days banc and after toey finish thvir labors there, they will proceed to Chioagc to take iro evidence.

It waa after 11 o'clook to day before tbo Committee got to work. Mr. Hewitt announced that Mr. Itlco was called home owing to business engigem'nt8. The first witneis oailed to d.iy waa Mr.

C. W. Elliott, (Mr. Hewitt announced that the Committee were daily receiving many letters containing valuable all of which would be published in the book of ricord. The Committee were glad to receive sound suggoitiouH.

Cue letter to day iggested that the atatute of limitations was too long, auo lei to tho presont distress in a great measure. Another was from a man in Woburu, giving the of provisions for the past iiinhteeii years aud tho rates of It showed that provisions were cheap3r to day than in 18S0, aud wages wero hiahdr. and that he believed the waut of eniployuiout was the cause of distress, and not the rate of wages.) MB. ELLIOTT testified that formerly he was an imp: to. In Boston and now ho was an RgrioulturiBt in NebraskB.

He had studied the question of the pres mt depression. It is not always easy to trace effects to the main causes. Ho said that ono of tho chief causes was tha: since the eud of tho past 10J years, steam and machinery has beon inventod to such an extent that moro artlclos are manufactured and produced than can possibly be consumed by tho world's inhabitants. Tho question arises how ean this mass of people be fed If they cannot dlspoae of their products? Mr. Hewitt But tbe London hkonomitt shows clearly that the export trido of England is increasing and 6tocks decreasing.

A. Woll, that was so a yoar ago. When 1 was there, Mnnchester merchants assured mo that they had millions of dollars In stocks which thoy could not dispose of. Wae never there is a glut of labor in any oountry, wiigos must gu down. Steam und machinery have tended to rodtice wages, and now, he believed, that the wairsfor able bodied men in MassaiihusottH was but 70 oents a (lay.

Mr. Howitt said that the testimony of every manu facurer exatumod show ad that s'aws ranged from $1,215 to bo that your atalamjnt in this regard is entirely erroneous.

No, sir but in some places thrr, are too many China for instance. Witness continuing said he behoved machinery bad increased the power or production from 100 to per oant.

Ho would reduce the hours of labor bo that over production would be stopped. Tho witness road a lot of theories which he believed to be new but nearly every one of which havo been placed before tha Cimmittoo already. believed that England was accumulating and had accumulated a large proportion of the surplus earnings of the world. Q. Now, air, do you know what the surplus earnings of th'; United States are yearly, or England or Franco? A.

No, sir. Mr. Hewitt Well, let me tell you. The surplus earnings of the Unite 1 States amount to six hundred million dollars, and France is said to have earned a similar amount, whoreas the annual surplus or accumulated earnings of England amount to about $350, 000,000. Ths whole country, said Mr.

E.liott, is left plastered with mortgages, aud pooplo with sift hands live by thoir wits instead of by their hands. This state of affairs ha said woe bton iht anont by the railroads and by the credit system. The river of English gold stopped In 1673, and peoplo were fouun living in a state of cxtiavagaoco and thoy could not accommodate themselves to the present state of affalra. He did not bolieve that the people who settled on our lands benefited the country. Q.

Witness Bald ho beliovel they would bo as well off without Milch production; he would not encourage the importation of pauper labor from other countries.

When tha war commenced every thing went up, up, up wagea, values aud every thing etss an era of extravagance eusued, improvements went on, and when the shrinkage came at last states, cities and villages were found burdened with debt between 1889 and 1876 over 48,000 miles of railroads ware built in this country, at a cost of $398.000 the three great industries on whioh labor depends for employment are, agriculture, manufactures and commeroe take agriculture first to day it is flourishing and la the moat important ot the oountry before the mowing, threshing and reaping machines were Invented the farm laborer only got about eight dollars a month, and to lay he receives moro than double that amount England has nnm up by protective laws aha has always proteo'trdTercom: 'D'0' in he aald, is latter to Ja?

THE PISTOL. A Despondent Oerniau's Remedy for Trowfole. 'fts, He Shoots Himself Because Busi iness was Bad. At 1 o'olock this afternoon, Ludwig Wan stein, of 806 Park avenue, shot bitnBclf iu tho right temple, and is now dying in tho Long IslaDd College Hospital. Wansteln had been seen wandering around Prospeot Park thts morning, in the vicinity of the Fifteenth street entrance, near the city line.

One of the Eark policemen mot him several times, and noticed that he waa acting In a nervous manDer. Ho walked up and down one of the paths leading from tho entrance, and glanced around him in a mysterious manner. The officer watohed him for a while, whereupon Wanstein walked out of the Park. At 1 o'clock tho Park policeman heard a pistol shot, and ran toward the Fifteenth street antranoe, from which place the sound proceeded. There ho found the man ha had been previously watching.

He was lying on the green sward near the path. In his hand was a oheap pistol, and iu his right templa A BULLET HOLE, from which tho blood was oozing. Ha was alive but unconscious. The polioeman called for assistance and had tha wounded man conveyed to a bench near by and than telegraphod for the ambulance. It arrived soon after with Dr.

Coohran, who saw at once that there was no hope of Wanstein'e recovery. He was removed to th8 Loug Ialand College Hospital and at a late hour waa in a very loir condition. Before he was removed the polioe atProBpect Park searched his clothing and found a letter written by him, explaining the reason whioh led him to attempt hiB life. He had beon unfortunate In business, and was entirely out of money, and seeing no prospect of bettering his circumstances became despondent and resolved on euioide. Tha letter is now in tho hands of tho Prospeot Park police and was applied for by the police of the Eighth Precinct, but tho Prospeot Park men refused to give it up.

It was addressed to Wonstoin's wife. It is not known whother he has a family or not. The bullet entered the brain and lodged there, and the physicians stato that it is not esfo to proba the wound and ovou if thoy could oxtract the bullet it would not save the suicide's lifek U.NEUPlOIED.

A meeting of the workmen recently employed on the Bridge was called for last night iu tha hall, corner of York and Main streets, but as the gathering had not been advertised the attendance was email and tho time waa devoted to preparing for a meeting, to be held this evening in tho plaoe.

The meetlug was called to order by Jlr, John Larklns, who said he waa unaware what they dejired to do. Ho would nominate Mi. Patrick J. Kelly as Chairman. Carried.

Mr. John Conway was choaou Secretary. The Chairman said ho was glad to see so many present. The objoct of the gathering was to make arrangements for the meeting to night. HON.

PATRICK BURNS was called upon to atate the objeoc of the meeting. Ho said it was an object that interested every man iu tho city, as well as tbo mon who hod been employed on the Bridge. Tho owners of property in the oity were interested, lor ths reason that the workmen employed ou the Bridge oocupied their tenement houssB, and if they could not got employment the owners could not pay their taxes. He bad called upon the directors, on Dehalf of the workmen, to see whether they persisted in employing men from New York upon tho work. He had called upon the Editor ot the Eaole nnd that gon tleman had promised to aeslst them in every way that lay In his power.

At the Bridge office, the speaker said be met Controller Burrell, and that gentleman expressed himself aa strongly in favor of employing only Brooklyn men ou the work, so long as Brooklyn paid the money, and he said la effect that he should be in favor of not paying any more monoy until the New York men were sent from this side of ths river. MB. MUBPHY said at that lime that every New York man should be sent back to the other si le of tho river.but for some reason it had not been done. The workmen in this city owed it to themselves and to us that their representatives in the oity government insisted upon the money that is paid by Brooklyn Bhould go to help Brooklyn workmen, and not go Into the pocket, of New York men. It might be claimed that there were men on the work In New York who wero not appointed by John Kelly.

But these were there through tho instrumentality uf the satellites of John Kelly, for there is not a man in pjl ltics in New York who did not LIVE BX THE 8DFFEBANCB or John Kelly. The speaker said further that bs bo lleved the majority of ths Boarl of Directors sympathized with the workman, aud they would not fail to do what they could for them. They were under obligation to do so, and the Prosidsnt of tha Board should see that tha men of Brooklyn were not the sufferers from tho act of John Kelly. Applause.

Another man said the workmen who wore employed Deed not fesr any adverse action jm the TrusteDB. They could attend the meeting if they ohose without fear. The meetiDg then adjourned uatil this evoniag at half past seven, at the same hall. MUNICIPAL.

Mr. needier on (lie Late Professor Rarinoadi Mr. Beecher in a private letter written from Virginia City to a friend In this city, pays the following tribute to tho memory of the lata Professor Raymond, who was President of Yasaar College, and wsll known is this oity I was much moved, yesterday, at ths tidings of the death of John II. Raymond. I had been riding night and day across the grert deeert plains and had Just reached this city of mountains, and sat in the hotel office looking over a newspaper, when the telegraphic paragraph met my eye.

Well, another thoroughly good and wholly useful man has Bsceuded. There are few whose lives will yield so much wheat and so little atraw and chaff. He was a man of Btroxtg con fictions, which ha carried without continual explosions a man ol atrentgtb, whose way was that of gentleness. He bad a sound conscience for himself, with great tenderness for the consioncss of other people a rare combination. He was a cautious man, with advanosd and progressiva views in regard to every department of human life.

His forte, in public life, was organization and conduot His work aa an educator will constitute a part of the life of four great institutions, two of which were born ot him, and were the Incarnation of his spirit and wisdom. Ho was a considerate and tender friend without alous or exacting moods. His honor was without spot. Hia religion was large, generous, fruitful in all personal loveliness. The few faults he bad were of great advantage to the general effect of his character, as the shadows of a pioture help all the light.

I loved him. Ho was one whoBe friendship made you riob. Now that he Is bidden with excess of light, 1 wonder that I did not make more out of him. In communion, friendship, religion every thing How many hearts will thank God in bis behalf for rescue and rolease. Dying was his appropriate culmination dying, too, In the foil strength of mind and body, in the very midst of great endeavors, without long and weary waiting old age.

Ho has been wrapt in light. He knows. Ho Is satisfied. Ood bless him 1 The dear old fellow, now young again with uuwaating and eternal youtb A HOSEBY IM COURT.
