Waiting for the Verdict at the Ballston Sprins. The Jury Still Oat Cnrlous Rumors oj to How It Stands It Is First Eight to Four for Con viction, then Ten to Two and Finally Eleven to One The Prisoner Said to be Anxious. Ballston, N.

Octobor 12. The jury in tho Billings oasD have remained looked in the Court room sinoa Friday evening, with a guard at tno aoors, ana during tho night a guard about the premises. The Jury retired about twelve o'clock, but awoke at 2:30 A. and, for two hours, recommenced an animated disoussion, the noise of which could be heard in tho street by thoso who bad remained up till that hour. A rumor early this morning was circulated that tne first vose stood 8 to for conviction tbat another vote changed it to 10 io 2, the latest rumor making it 11 to z.

There are numberB of strangers still remaining In town awaiting the verdlot, aud at thia hour Boots of people are gathered wktiiug hearing of tbe Court House bell still discussing and waiting. A communication was received by tho Judge after dinner to day whioh the Judge said needed no re ply. Another message waa received from the jury te which he replied by telling the officers to give the jury a Are, and added he would reoelve a ver dlot at any time before eleven o'clock to night or on Sunday, and tbat ho should remain here as long as the jury decided to stay. Counsel for the defense have gone home, whllo the Judge and District Attorney await tbe verdict at Medoergs Hotel. About nlueo'clook tho Judge receivod a third mes sage, askiDg for blankets and apples.

Ho replied, granting them all tho blankets Bnd apples requued. A truck load of bedding has just been sent up to tho court room from tho American Hotel, whioh indicatos that no verdict is likely to be reached to night. Tho jury went to supper in the basement just before nlno o'clock. While they wero absent from tho room it wa3 noticed by an observing one tbat the closod blinds on the three windows facing tho American Hotel presented an indication coincident with the latest rumor that tho jury stood eleven to Tbe slats in eleven panels in tbo two easterly windows were turned so as to show tbe light through thorn, while one panel In tho west window was in the same oondltlon. ThiB coincidence was generally noticed and remarked upon as a probable sign.

Before the Jury returned to the Court room form supper the combination was scattered. Billings anxiously awaits the decision in his cell, underneath the room ocoupied by the jury, and has been surrounded by his friends all day, including his father and the Rev. Mr. Ford. The downcast looks ot Billings' friends and tho anxiety displayed by his counsel apparently Indicate that the rumors afloat hare Borne foundation.

Jurors Burr and WisweJl were seen this aftornoon in front of the large window faoing the railroad engaged In an animated discussion; also In studying the map of Billings' premises. The District Attorney Ormsby, and his associate, Mr. Monk, have, since the close of tbe case, received about twenty letters from parties offering to furnish Important evidence in the case, three of the writers admitting that they committed the murder themselves.

Ten years ago last May two Sisters of Charity from tho Mount St. Vincent Institute, near Yonkors, wore Bent to this city to take charge of a hospital for sick women and children, situated at No. 247 Clinton street. Previous to this time Biahon Loughliu and several members of tbe clergy in this oity had realized the necessity of founding such a hospital, and, after consideration, they determined to seoure the co operation of promlnont citUons, and with their aid toko tho initial steps in ths mattor of organizing ono. Among the gentlemen residents of this oity who.

first camo forward to aid Bishop Lough lin in bis exertions were Dr. Byrne, Mr. Lamarche, Mr. Denver, Mr. MoCabo, Mr.

Toben and Mr. O'Brien. Meotings wore held, tho question of tho new hospital was thoroughly discuased and it was finally dooidod to purchase the three story and basement brick house at No. 217 Clinton street, lo bo used ss tho hospital. Beforo doing this, howovor, the gentlemon Beoured the services of two Sisters of Charity, who were willing to davob their timo and labors to the good of suffering humanity.

It was then a now feature for the BiBtora to give their services in this manner, but the consont of Iho superiors having bean obtained, the two Suters catne to this city and commoncod their hospital work. Sister Emiliana was tho name of tho lady placed In charge of tho hospital. She and her colaborer put everything in crder, and a few days after the opening of the hospital tho first patient was received. In two or threo mouths tho hospital had a large numoerof pationts, and, as tho work progressed, it was found necessary to procure the services of mora sisters. This was done, tha numbsr of pationts was largely increased and tho enorgics of the 8isterB wero now fully taxed.

Thus things progressed until tho year 1871, when, in ordor to accommodate patientB, it was iound necessary to Becare a larger building. At this time a number of ladle3 In the diocaso interested themaolves In the hospital, and formed a society among themselves with the object of doiug all in their power to assist tho noble work. Mrs. Louis Lowe, wife of the ox Governor of Maryland, waa placod at tho head of the society. Under her efficient management the organization prospered.

Regular meetings wero hold and business in ths interest of the hotpital was transacted. A projeoli originating with the iadio3' society, and afterward by it success! ully carried out, was tbe means of establishing A MORE COMMODIOUS HOSPITAL, i which the Sisters could perform their labors. This project was a grand fair, given by the society In the Academy ot Mueic, by which the sum of $30,000 was realized. With this money the largo throe story brown stone front and basement building, on tha corner ot Hoyt and Dean atreots, known as tho Polhemus mansion was purchased, and soon after tbe Sisters there established themselves and continuod their hospitable work. Thore were in all five Sisters whan this building waa first ontered, Sister Emiliana being the Superior.

Tho number of patients was largely increased when the now quarters wero lokon, but for the time being there was room onough to accommodate thorn. In 1S72, however, it waa found necessary to turn the coaoh house in tho rear of tho Hospital into a maternity for children. This was done, and the lower part of tbe maternity waa usod as a ais pousary, whero medicines wore dispensed three times a week, free of charge, to those who needed them and who were not in a poiltion to pay for tbem. From '72 to '70 tho work of administering to tho alck and dying progressed uninterruptedly without sny changes being mado. Durli.g this porlod large amounts of mediciuo wore given to tho poor, the number of patients waB increasing, and the noble efforts of tho Sisters wero recognized.

The ladies' society bad not gone out of exiatence. The membors of it labored and zealously for the Hospital, devoted much of their time in collecting subscriptions and contributions to it, and deserve tho highest praise and credit for their exertions in the cause ot charity. In'1870, Mrs. Thomas M. Riley, Mrs.

Maurice Fitzgerald and Mrs. Hugh McLar.ghlm arraugod a concort, which was given in the Academy of Music, aud from wbloh over $2,300 was realized. Tbis money waa devoted to the erection of a baby ward in tho roar of the hospital, it being found neoes.3ary to provide more spacious accommodation for the chillren. Notblng of importance has occurred from thon until the present time, when it is now proposed to erect A NEW HOSPITAL AT A COST OF $200,000, under the namo of St. Mary, situated on St.

Marks avenue, and covering tho emiro block b. tween Roches. ter and Buffalo aveuuee. This ground has already boen purchased and is now almost paid for. It was sold for $18,500, but Is said to bo worth no loss than $30,000.

The pnrcbaso was made about a year bro. The plans havo boen finished aud preparations are now on foot for tbo successful carrying ont of the enterprise. It is expected that tho fltBt sod lor tho new hospital will bo turned about Octobor 30, on which day Bishop Loughlin will celobrate bis Episcopal Jubilee, having on that day been tWButy flvo yoars a Bishop. If tbe first sod is turned on that day it wil in itself bo a fitting celebration of the event. How ever Ibe case may be, It Is certain that tbo ladies of tho diocese are now actively at work to make the coming fair in aid of this great object a grand success.

A large amount of money in aid of the now hospital Is expected to ba realized by this fair It will commence on tho 21st of November, and continuo for two woeks, and it is expected that it will he held in tho Thirteenth Regiment Armory, on the corner of Flat bush and Atlantic avenues. It Is gotten up by promi nent ladios of tho dioce3o, and will be under tho supervision of the Catholic clergy of the city, with Bishop Lougblin at their head. It was proposed to call It the Bishop's fair, but tho reverend gentleman, with his usual modesty; declined to have it eo named. It is supposed that every Catholic ohurch in the city will be represented by a table, and, from present indications, the fair will be the grandest ovont of the klad ever given in this city. The hearty co operation and support of every person in tho city is requested, and tnere is no doubt but that it will be given, when con sidering the noble object for which it is give.

The highest oredlt is deserved by the ladios who havo so kindly interested themselves in the movement, and if they labor as earnestly in the future as thoy have dono in the past, the success of tho fair is iusured.

The Pall meeting of the American Jockey Club closed yesterday at Jerome Pari, bringing to a conclusion tbo season of running raoing in this vioin ity. A raw northwest wind, wnloh raised clouds of dust from tho heavy track and rattled showers of dead leaveB down from the trees in the failed to cool the ardor of the turfmen threatening skies, almost ob souring the sunlight, did not rob the gronndB or tneir Autumnal beauty and tbo ohill carried in the gusts that swept almost florcely across the oourso was insufficient to keep tbo beauty and fashion of tho Metropolis and vicinity Indoors. The boulevards leading from the Central Park wore thronged in the early afternoon by fashionable equipages on their way to the races. The long and numer ous trains on tbe Harlem Railroad were crowded to re pletion. By two o'clook about 5,000 persons were in Jerome Park.

Two or three thousand moro blackened the crest of Deadhead Hill, where they obtained a viow of tho contests, freo of expense. A large compa ny made brilliant the sloping lawn before the Club house. The fair sex were fully represented and a bewildering display of Autumnal costumes was made. Most of the ladios wore heavy wrapB, whioh were found quite welcome in the chilly atmosphere. Drawn up in line in front of tho club house, were five stylish drags of the Coaching Club, comprising (he vehicles of Messrs.

James Gordon Bennett, Hugo Fritsch, Pierre Lorillard, H. A. Vaqdoine and Leonard Jerome, which had ontered the course in procosBion, amid a merry chorus from the horns. Tho grand stand was comfortably crowded. On tho quarter atretoh thero waa a bustling throng.

The book uakers were very humorous and betting was very active. The racing throughout was exciting and afforded a great deal of sport, A large number of Brooklynitos were present, among whom were Mr. Charles S. Biggins, W. B.

Davenport, Loftus Wood, Assessors Roche and Ennis, City Works Commissioner Bennett, Supervisor Cullen, Police Captain Ned Riley, ex Alderman William O. Mc Kinney, Deputy City Auditor Frank Howard, Keener Shevliu, George Howard, Mr. Robert Furey, ex Fire Commissioner Hugh McLaughlin, Mr. Samuel Bartow, Isaao Daiton, P. Koenan and others.

THE ANNUAL SWEEPSTAKES. The first race, ana an event which excited deep interest, was the annual sweepstakes for 8 year olds, a two mile dash. There were thirty three nominations, but the only starters were G. L. LorllUrd's bay oolt, Duke oi Magenta, and Pierre Lorillard's bay colts, Spartan and Garrick.

There were few ot tho old turf men who believed that either Spartan or Garrick had a chance against the Duke, nevertheless tbore was con siderable betting on tbe contest. It was all, however, extremely onesided, the bookkmakers laying 100 to 40 against Piorre Lorillard's atables. Tho start was a beautiful one, the horses getting off without the slight est delay, well together, with the Duke not moro than a noBO in advance. Around the turn the Duke led slightly, but Spartan was close upon him, with Garrick a length in the rear. The trio made a spurt going down the hill toward the club house at a very sharp pace, with the Duke still the lead.

Spartan was close up as tbe flyers passed from view behind tbe hill. When they came in sight, the horses were relatively in tbe same position, all doing their level best. Garrick made a noble effort as tboy ncared the extremity of tho homestretch, coming up to second place. He soon fell back to his old position. Spartan's rider plisd tho whip vigorously on the Uomoalretch.

As the horses approached the stand, they made aoothor spurt. The Duko passed leading by a longtb, with Garrick lour lengths behind Spartan. Around the turn and at the quarter tbo Duko was half a length in front of Spartan, Gurick two lengths behind. Rounding the bill tho Duke increased his lead to one and a quarter lengths, Garrick being about the Batuo distance behind Spartan. The second time thoy passed from sight tho Duko led Garrick and Spartan, who were nock and nock by one length, which he maiuiained until they entered the.

homestretoh. Then there was a sharp struggle, Garrick'e rider applied the whip vigorously and made an effort to overtake the Duke, but it was uusucc ssiul, the favorite coming In winner by two lengths, with fiarrick second and Spartan three lengths in the rear. The raoe was run in 3:43.

Morris, Remorseless and Regardless colts were the favorites, ton to four laid against them. Tbe other horses annouuc3d to start were August Belmont's Flddlestring, McGratb's Mary Ann, WitherB' Bettina, Pierre Lorillard's Csdrio and Stearnes' Farley. When the horses upon tho track it was noticed that Cedrio, a handsome coal black colt, waB very restless. Suddenly ho started with the spd of an arrow and was soon in full oa reer around the course running away. His jockey, who wai an exceedingly plucky fellow, endeavored to Btop bim, but all to no purpose.

The colt soon made the circuit of the track, and swept by the grand stand like a whirlwind amid the sbouts of tbe spectators. Cedric ran over tbe course a second time with undi minished speed, and waB only stopped when he had run two and a half miles. He was, of course, withdrawn from the race. All agreed tbat he bad made wonderful lime in his Involuntary flight. The plucky ridor was loudly cheered.

Much difficulty was experienced in effecting a etart, tbe horses only getting off after eight attempts. The Regardless colt, Mary Anu and Fiddlesttiug were nearly abreast at the commencement. Going out lo sight Fiddlestring led by half a length, Mary Ann being second aud tbe Regardless colt third. The borses were running well when they came into view, Fiddlestring being only tbrec quavters of a length in the van, tho RogardbsB colt pushing bim very hard. Bcltina showed in the third place, Mary Ann fourtb nd the Remorseless colt fifth.

The latter made a Jtre meudous spurt as the homestretch was neared and gained first place, with the colt second and Fiddlestring third, the other two being several length intberear. The Morria colts ran up the stretch together apparently at their oase, with Mary Ann and Fiddlestring endeavoring to regain tbeir lost ground. Regardless colt won by half a length, bis partner coming in second by bait a length. Mary Ann won third place, two lengths behind. The time of tbe race was 20.

The hoiees go', off without difficulty, starting well together. Danicheff quickly took the lead. He was three lengths in advance when they passod the stand, and malutained the ad vantage until they wont around the turn past tho club house and out of sight.

Danicheff kept the lead by a length into the stretch. again, and around the track until they disappeared behind the bluff. Parole gained steadily when tho horses reappeared. In a few seconds ho had closod up the gap aud came into tho homestretch with gigantic strides, a neck In the advance. Danicheff made a brave fight his jockey, Douobue, whipped bim unsparingly, and forced him into a great gait.

But tho great Parole increased hiB speed commensuratcly, and kept hiB pace to the close. Ho came in an easy winner by a length and a half, finishing tho race in 4:03.

Programme of tbe Races and Names of tbe Horses Entered. The trotting season of the Prospect Park Fair GroundB Association winds up this week with on extra grand Fall meeting, lasting four days, commencing on Tuesday, and continuing Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The prospect for sport Is exceptionally flue, and the programme prepared for the races is a very brilliant one, and, If the weather proves favorable, should insure a very successful meeting. The purses offered are exceedingly liberal, the classes very desirable, and the fields quite large, eplendid lot ot borseB have been entered, and among tbem many celebrated flyers, who have earned for themselves fresh laurels and enviable reputations during the Summer by their numerous triumphs at Ibe different oircuits throughout the country. More than boll the starters have already airived at the track, where they are stabled, aud the rest will probably arrive before tbe meeting opens.

Those now at tbe track are daily exeroised by their trainers, getting them in trim for tho coming contests for which they are entered. Beside many well known trotters down on tho bill, thera are quite a number of green horses who have never been speeded in public, but who may derolop some extraordinary qualities before the meeting is over, These latter will furnish additional speculation for the bookmakers and greater Interest to tbe betting. Among the borses better known, Aiden Goldsmith's Powers and tho Simmons brothers' Kansas Chief are both booked for tho "twenty" race, shioh will doubtless be the most interesting of the moating. Both horses are said to be pretty evenly matched, and it is probable that tbe betting on this race will be quite spirited and tbe sport very exoiting. The probabilities are tbat pools, as usual, will be Bold at the track during the meeting.

TLe Canadian preBs speak highly of his labors. Rev. Mr. Kennoy has given his 6orvlces gratuitously to this work duriug the past year.

Early, oi Lynchburg, Va. In tbe campaign in question bo commanded a brigade of Ewell's Division of 8tonewall Jackson's army. He testified as to tuo evontB of August 29, 18G2, that his troops were in the morning fired upon by tho ITnlou artillery near Groveton and afterward had severe skirmishing beyond the Wairenton Turnpike. About 11 A. M.

the advanco of Longetreet'd forces under Hood appeared on tbe road and was iollowo'l by other troop3 and tho witness, knowing that they were between him and ally forco of the enemy that might come up on the right, withdrew his brigade and went to the left. He heard artillery firing during the day at intervals and at 1 P. M. engaged tbo Federal troops in tbe woods near tho crossing of the Sudley road and the railroad. Of his own knowledge be knew nothing of Longstreet that day.

His impression at the time was that Jack eon's oporatlona were made with the design of misleading Pope. On tbe night of the 27th Jackson's army was at and near Manassas and the witness was waked np by the word of tbe destruction of Federal ammunition. Jackson's movement wa9 tho result of the capture of Federal dispatches. Taoro was nothiug in tho nature of a retreat by Jackson between August 27 and SI, nor was any such purpose entortamcd. At the conclusion of his examination, General Early made a statement outside of nils evidence, which ho said was in justice to the memory of Generals Jackson and Gregg, The former's official report contains an error of statement, which was to be explained by the fact that it was written by a BtafI officer who had not received military training.

The other witnesses of tho day were General Oilman MarstoD. of New Hampshire Gauor.il Duval, oi West Virginia Gonoral Gorstom Mott, of New JoiBey, and five others, whoso testimony did not vary in any ossan. tial point from that which has preceded tbem.

They ran down the hill and past the club bouse in the same position, and were soon lost to sight in tho southern field. When they reappeared Bay Rum was missing. His jockey, Cooney, had received a Bevere fall by tho breaking of a stirrup, and the horse had lost bis head and wandered about tbe field. Coming down tbe green Deadhead led Problem by a length, with Lord Zjtland third and Lizzie D. fourth.

Deadhead oleared the water jump, but little in advance of Problem. Both horses wont over lightly and gracefully. Lord Zetland came next. He cleared the jump, but stumbled before he could regain his footing and threw Brown, his jockey, over bis head. He then hurried on with empty saddle after the other horses and crossed several hurdles before he bolted off to tho stables.

Brown, the jockey, was severely bruised and cut about the face. The only horses, remaining in the raoe ware Deadhead, Problem and Lizzie the latter being way behind. By the time tbe flyers had ran off into the south again Problem had inoreased his speed and he crossed tbe last hurdle' one length ahead of Deadhead, Lizzie D. being far in the rear.

Fine Row In tbe Bendersod Camp Last Nlffut The Convention Broke Up In a Hand to Hand FlUt The Henderson clique of the Greenbackers met last night in Mechanics' Exchange to indorse the nominations made last Thursday by the United Con ference Committee representing (he Labor League Socialists and bJth wings of the Greenbackers. Tho proceedings of the Conference Committee were submitted the delegates and proved to be tbe cause of an Interesting sesBion. It bad boen circulated by the delegates present that Dr. Henderson had been boasting that because of the Indorsement he received from the O'Flahertyltes be would turn his wing of the party in favor of the O'Flahertyltes. It also leaked out tbat McCannls' party, In behalf of the Republicans, was to indorse such men as bad been prominent Republicans, as Bnbb and others.

This created much dissatisfaction and disorder, so tbat it was Impossible for O. B. Burton keep order. The noise, oat calls and stamping drowned the sound of the gavel. Bnrton was hustled from the chair in the disorder, and finally a young man, named Duzendorf, brought session to a closo by hitting Secretary Gallagher on aide of the head with a chair.

Tbe fight on this became general aud was continued down the stairs until sidewalk was reached, when a pom of policemen dispersed the gang THE RIFLE. A Shooting; Contest at canarsle.

It was between Conrad Ladger, a member of the Rip Van Winkle of this city, and Philip Sulier, a member ol Company Fifteenth Battalion. The distance waa 500 yards, each competitor having 115 shots, without sighting Bhots.

A high wind prevailed, and the scores were, therefore, unsatisfactory, especially in tbe case of Mr. Sulzer, wno only made 5 points out of a possible 76, to Ladger's 23. As Mr. Sulzer was the challenging party, he and bis friends wero muoh chagrined at the result. I i I A gr.

MASTERS OF THE CUE. Ull(loli Ocfeattnir Sexton aitor Warm contest. In the Union Square Billiard Rooms, New York last night a game of 500 points for a gold medal was played by Sexton and Rudolph, and from first to last the battle was hotly contested, Rudolph had scored 51 points against his adversary's 28, and beta were freely offered that tho formor would carry off the prize. On his 28th score Sexton got the balls evidently just where he wantod thorn, for he scored 218 ooints before making a miss. As the gamekeeper calleloff every flf tho player was vociferously ap ninnded.

and now the bets turned the other way. In scorinc 87. 11, 21, 8, 17, 21, 65 and so on, Ru dolph crept up to 303, while his adversary bad slowly crept up to 408 points bis largest score after the hun hoint, sit Points 1. 2, 9, 16 now the luck of Sexton, but ho steadily fought his way up to 438. Then Mr.

Rudolph scored 21 and 61, and finally his came was announced at 331. Here he sol the ta ble attain, sooring 100 in succession and onougU moro to carry biin out, when he was loudly choired. SHERIFF. The Race Between Worth and Stegman. Eoyv they Figure on the Ward Delegations.

Neither Nowhere According to the Reports of the Other. The contest for the Republican nomination for Sheriff waxes hotter and hotter. It really lies be tween Colonel Lewis R. Stegman, the present Undor Sheriff, and Assemblyman Jacob Worth. The friends of each claim that their man is sure to be nominated but it is noticeable tbat while the adherents of Mr.

Worth are demonstrative, those of Col. Stegman have little to say bojond pointing to the wards which tboy expect to carry, and whiob, if they do carry, will nominate the Colonel. There will be 165 delegates in the County Convention, and not one them haB yet been eleoted. Nevertheless, Mr. Worth's friends, more than a week ago, figured that he would have a hundred or more of them, including those from several of tbo country towns, and boastel that they had Stoginan boa ten already.

Tbe politicians, who are taking unusual interest this contest, are anxious to know just what strength each of the candidates counts upon, and, from all tho gossip on the subject, a reporter of the Eagle has ascertained the warJs which each side claims as good as won already. Mr. Worth and his friends appear to figure the case out as follows WOETH'3 FIGTJBE8. First Ward Stegman. Second Ward Worth, Third Ward Depends on the reBUlt of the primary.

Fourth Ward Worth. Fifth Ward Worth. Sixth Ward Half Worth and half Stegman. Seventh Ward Captain Steers first, Worth afterward. Eighth Ward Half Worth and half Stegman, probably.

Ninth Ward Worth. Tenth Ward Worth. Eleventh Ward Stegman. Twelfth Ward Worth, Thirteenth Ward Half and half, probably. Fourteenth Ward Worth.

Fifteenth Ward Worth. Sixteenth Ward Worth. Seventeenth Ward Worth. Eighteenth Ward Worth. Nineteenth Ward Stegman.

Twontioth Ward BiEsell first, Worth afterward. Twenty first Ward Worth. Twenty seoond Ward Half and half. Twenty third Ward Worth. Twenty fourth Ward Worth.

Twenty fiftn Ward Worth. The friends of Stegman must wonder, on tbe fao3 of this formidable list, whether there is such a man as the Colonel really in tho race. They admire the cheok of Worth p3rty, but from th.ir standpoint, they claim that bo is far out oi the way. For instance, they hold that he has no chance whatevor of securing the Second Third, Sixth, Twentieth and Twenty second and that he might aB well claim the Nineteenth (Steff man'a ward) delegates, as either of tbem. They admit tbat be will have two oi tuo towns, the $3,500 Commissioner Bennett having used the patronage of tho Department of City Works to help him there.

In cuvious contrast with the figures given on behalf Woitb is tho following llet made out by Stegman's friends. WHAT STEGMAN COUNTS ON. Wards. 1 Stegman. 2 Stegman.

3 Stegman, 4 Stegman. 6 Stegman. 6 Siegman. 7 Steers, afterward Socman. 8 Half and half.

9 Worth. 10 Worth. 11 Stegman. 12 Worth (doubtful). The friends of Worth, in 13 Stegman.

14 Worth. 15 Stegman. 16 Worth, 17 Hoi and half. 18 Worth. 19 Stegman.

20 Bisseli, afterward Stegman. 21 Stegman. 22 Hlegiaan. 23 Worth. 24 Stegman.

25 Stegman. tho face of this liBt, are asking whether the Honorable Jacob is in the race or with as much merriment ae those of Stegman exhibit in regard to the Assemblyman's figures. The Bum and substance of tbe wbole matter ib that while each car.didato may eafely count on several wards, neither is sure of a majority, Afttr the primaries, however, the result can be more eaBily foreshadowed. Opinion among tho politicians though is that Colonel Stegman is now slightly ahead in tho raoe. A fortnight auo the chances seemed to be in favor of Worth.

Steers and Bissell will receive a complimentary vote from tbeir respective wards, the Seventh and Twentieth. There is some talk of either one or the other of them possibly becoming a comprotulso candidate, but present indications are that neither has tbo slight chance of success that Worth and his friends would rather see Stegman win than oltber Steers or Bissoil, and vice versa. No, tho fight is between Lewis Jacob, and between them it will be settled. WAS SHE MURDERED 1 tJravcsoud Tlynery That May Puz zle the Police. At a late hour last night a dispatch was received at Police Headquarters from the depot of Prospeot Park Coney Island Railroad that body of a woman about 50 yoars of age bad boen found at Garritson's mill, Gravesend, and had been taken to Mr.
