The Government 1 lori Not Know of Any Philadelphia. Oct. 31.—The evidence yesterday lit the inquest in the case of the eccentric electroputhic physician, Ruth A. Ward, of 666 North Twelfth Street, who died on Monday, was that she fell out ot the bed six weeks ago, while intoxicated. She complained of pains in her side, but refused to have a physician. She instructed her nurse to put half a pound of ginger in two quart bottles of alcohol. She swallowed all this in twenty-four hours. "That was enough to kill a hundred jjersous," Coroner Janney said. It was shown i hat tiiree of Mrs. Ward's ribs were broken an ' had canted purulent inllainmation of the lungs.

FRESH NEWS FROM EVERYWHERE POLITICS, SOCIETY AND BUSINESS Washington, Oct. 31.—Publicity has boon given to a report that th» Tlepartrnant of Justice has discovered a deficit in the accounts of General James Longstrcet, Uriitod States Marshal for the Northern district of Georgia. It was also slated that Genera) Longs! rest's friends have offered to mako the deficit good. An inquiry at the Department of Justice today, however, elicited the fact that the report is at least premature. It probably arose from the fact that an agent has been sent to examine General Longstreet's accounts, but the result of the examination has not yet been reported. The fact that an agent has been sent out for that purpose is said to be lip indication that anything is wrong. These agents aro sent out to all the districts, as authorized by law, and the rumor about General Longstreet's accounts might apply to any of the others as well. If such is the caso it has not yet come to the knowledge of oither the Attorney General or Treasury officials, and it is but simple justice to General Longstreet to say this much. New Yoiik, Oct. 31.—Mrs. Seguin, aged 36, the wife of Dr. Edward 0. Seguin, a noted specialist on diseases of the brain, shot a.id killed her throe young children this afternoon, and then killed herself, at No. 41 Wost Twentieth street. There is no other cause known for the terrible tragody than insanity in the mother. The children were Edward D., aged 6 years; John Van Duyn, aged 5, and Jeaunette, aged 4 years. They were all shot through the head aud instantly killed. The mother's death was as sudden and probably as paiuless as theirs. A frig ilful feature of the tragedy is the manner of the murder. Mrs. Seguin took tbo children to an empty spare room at the top of tho live-story house, in tho absence of lier husband aud when the servants were ongaged in tho basement, and locked herself in with them. The servants believed that they had gone out for a walk. What happened in the room will never be known, but when Dr. Amidon, Mrs. Seguiu's brotlie., called at 5 o'clock, and with his suspicions aroused by the long absence of the family, made a search of the house, mother and children were found dead, all shot through the head. The children's hands were tied behind their backs with whip-cord ; tiioy wore blindfolded with handkerchiefs, and to all appearances they must liavo been shot whilo playing blind-man's buff with their destroyor. i hey had been dead for at least an hour and a half and were quite cold. Three pistols were found in the room, all of large calibre, aud all had been used.

The gentlemen of the committee, after a long conversation, told me they were eutirely satislied with my position, and agreed to support my candidacy. I supposed of cou.se that iu fairness to me the committee would so report ty the club of Independent Republicans; but I take it from your letter that they have failed to do so. It is not true that Mr. Cameron's money, or any other man's money, had anything to do with my nomination. The convention that nominated me was com-' posed of gentlemen who could not bfS bought, and it contained at least a score of Independent delegates.

The Government 1 lori Not Know of Any Philadelphia. Oct. 31.—The evidence yesterday lit the inquest in the case of the eccentric electroputhic physician, Ruth A. Ward, of 666 North Twelfth Street, who died on Monday, was that she fell out ot the bed six weeks ago, while intoxicated. She complained of pains in her side, but refused to have a physician. She instructed her nurse to put half a pound of ginger in two quart bottles of alcohol. She swallowed all this in twenty-four hours. "That was enough to kill a hundred jjersous," Coroner Janney said. It was shown i hat tiiree of Mrs. Ward's ribs were broken an ' had canted purulent inllainmation of the lungs.

FRESH NEWS FROM EVERYWHERE POLITICS, SOCIETY AND BUSINESS Washington, Oct. 31.—Publicity has boon given to a report that th» Tlepartrnant of Justice has discovered a deficit in the accounts of General James Longstrcet, Uriitod States Marshal for the Northern district of Georgia. It was also slated that Genera) Longs! rest's friends have offered to mako the deficit good. An inquiry at the Department of Justice today, however, elicited the fact that the report is at least premature. It probably arose from the fact that an agent has been sent to examine General Longstreet's accounts, but the result of the examination has not yet been reported. The fact that an agent has been sent out for that purpose is said to be lip indication that anything is wrong. These agents aro sent out to all the districts, as authorized by law, and the rumor about General Longstreet's accounts might apply to any of the others as well. If such is the caso it has not yet come to the knowledge of oither the Attorney General or Treasury officials, and it is but simple justice to General Longstreet to say this much. New Yoiik, Oct. 31.—Mrs. Seguin, aged 36, the wife of Dr. Edward 0. Seguin, a noted specialist on diseases of the brain, shot a.id killed her throe young children this afternoon, and then killed herself, at No. 41 Wost Twentieth street. There is no other cause known for the terrible tragody than insanity in the mother. The children were Edward D., aged 6 years; John Van Duyn, aged 5, and Jeaunette, aged 4 years. They were all shot through the head aud instantly killed. The mother's death was as sudden and probably as paiuless as theirs. A frig ilful feature of the tragedy is the manner of the murder. Mrs. Seguin took tbo children to an empty spare room at the top of tho live-story house, in tho absence of lier husband aud when the servants were ongaged in tho basement, and locked herself in with them. The servants believed that they had gone out for a walk. What happened in the room will never be known, but when Dr. Amidon, Mrs. Seguiu's brotlie., called at 5 o'clock, and with his suspicions aroused by the long absence of the family, made a search of the house, mother and children were found dead, all shot through the head. The children's hands were tied behind their backs with whip-cord ; tiioy wore blindfolded with handkerchiefs, and to all appearances they must liavo been shot whilo playing blind-man's buff with their destroyor. i hey had been dead for at least an hour and a half and were quite cold. Three pistols were found in the room, all of large calibre, aud all had been used.
