Little Specks THE BEST I rro Olulni* tlic Administration Gave III in No Support. The Attorney General Says Ttejr Should Be Suppressed. A Reformed Thief Onoe More Held to Answer for His Deeds. Petersburg, Va., Nov. 9.—A reporter had an interview with Gen. Mahone in regard to Tuesday's election. Oen. Mahone was found to be somewhat dispirited over the defeat of his party and at what he termed the "deceit and hypocrisy" of certain professed friends, who betrayed him at the last moment. "There never was a party," said- he, "which had to fight against such odds as t&oee who confronted the readjusters of Virginia at the last election." Upon being asked if his course did not reoeive substantial ment from the administration, Gen. Mahone answered: "No, sir; we got the cold shoulder from everybody. I received no recognition from President Arthur, and asked him for none. So far as his actions were concerned, he did not seem to know that the fiercest fight ever waged against bourbonism was in progress in Virginia. Furloughs were even refused Virginia clerks in Washington who wasted te g5 home and vote the readjuster ticket." Washington, D. C., Nov. 9.—Attorney Genera] Brewster has replied to Secretary Teller's recent letter respecting the appointment of a pension office clerk to aid District Attorney Corkhill in examining cases against pension attorneys which the district attorney may wish to present to the grand jury. In his reply the attorney general says: "I agree with you that such an appointment cannot be made to examine jrases where the offenses charged are not offehses against the United States, but the district attorney in hii letter to you includes cases whero these pe nsion agents make formal applications to the pension office, well knowing the claims they presont are fraudulent. This is an offense against the United States. So far as the district attorney makes charges of crimes against the United States, he should be aided in the examination of such cases by an officer of the pension bureau, specially detailed for that purpose by the commissioner. The evil set forth by the district attorney is a growing evil, and all means that can be legally employed to suppress it ought, in my opinion, to be put in motion for that end." The attorney general closes by referring to portions of the second auditor's annual report, which he says "disclose a frightful condition of organized fraud against the poor and holpless wno have either served their country themselves and lived maimed and broken down in health, or who have left destitute widows and children, all of whom are now the victims of these designing, bad men, who rob them of their little savings and earnings under color of gains they ore never to have, and overload the public departments with work that hinders the necessary progress of their proper business. If this can be ended by the intervention of the officers of the United States— if this can be punished—it ought to be." A Wing of Wisconsin's State House Collapses With Fatal Results.

Va., Nov. 9.—Robert V. Evans, now under arrest in this city, has evaded punishment for eighteen yean. The records of the circuit court of Borkley county show that on April 17, 1866, Evans was indicted, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to the penitentiary for three years for horse stealing. John W. Pitzer, who was sheriff at the time, started with the prisoner for Moundsville. After passing Grafton it was found that the bird bad token flight and was nowhere to be found.

In February, 1866, becoming tired of evading arrest, he started for Ohio,taking the cars at Hagerstown, Md., and went to London, Richland county, Ohio, where he made his home. In the following January he married his coasin, Miss Mary V. Evans, who knew nothing of his past adventures. In April, this year, he concluded to return with his family to his old home, in Berkley county. He arrived here early In the summer, and settled with his wife and seven children, the latter ranging in age from four months to fifteen years. He has been leading a steady, industrious life, trying to make a comfortable living for his bright, bappy family, but it was not long before neighbors began to talk about their new friends, and it was discovered that the head of the family was the same person who eighteen years ago made his eeoape and had neVer been heard of. Chicago, Dl., Nov. 9.—A dispatch from Madison, Wis., says: -'The iron roof, inside walls and stone col lmns of the south and of the new wing of the state capital fell with a tremendous crash.

She was sentenced to be hanged on December 16. The following is hm- aQt'lavit on which her pardon was granted: "I was born in Dublin, Ireland, eighteen years ago. My mother died when I was six years of age. Following quickly on my mother's death, my father, a blacksmith, became blind by pieces of iron flying into his eyes. I first went out to service as a nurse girl in Ireland. Along with a number of other girls, assisted by some sisterhood, I emigrated to this country, arriving on September 8, 1880. I was employed in rainy places as a servant, and left each situation on various pretexts. Over a year ago I was led astray. I afterward became a mother. Since then I have been cruelly chided by acquaintances for my fault. The unwelcome remarks were so numerous and persistent that I yielded to a sudden impulse and threw my baby into a cistern. After my child was born I found great difficulty in sustaining it aild myself. I am very sorry for what I have done, and sincerely repent my rash act." GOV.

Styles and Sizes. St. Louis, Nov. 0.—Gov. Crittenden publishes an alleged interview which is principally a tirade of abusive allegation and insinuation against the late grand jury, whom he accuses of deliberate perjury in signing a report they knew to be false, and of consummating withiu the grand jury room a conspiracy hatched outside to defame and persecute innocent men, himself among the number. He charges also that some of the federal officials in St. Louis have had an active hand in manipulating if not drawing up the indictments, having been conversant with the inner working of the grand jury room, through its inquisitorial progress, which he characterized as an outrage which should be resented by every lover of state government in and outside of St Louis, and which he calls upon the department at Washington to investigate. The subject of this allusion is United States District Attorney Bliss, who has been employed by the Law and Order league to assist in the prosecution of the ringleaders and who characterizes the governor's statement as a bid to catch the sympathy of the advocates of state's rights. Tha animus of the interview was strongly condemned on 'change. The grand jury are to publish a card refuting the governor's allegations against their integrity. of Perjnry.

Little Specks THE BEST I rro Olulni* tlic Administration Gave III in No Support. The Attorney General Says Ttejr Should Be Suppressed. A Reformed Thief Onoe More Held to Answer for His Deeds. Petersburg, Va., Nov. 9.—A reporter had an interview with Gen. Mahone in regard to Tuesday's election. Oen. Mahone was found to be somewhat dispirited over the defeat of his party and at what he termed the "deceit and hypocrisy" of certain professed friends, who betrayed him at the last moment. "There never was a party," said- he, "which had to fight against such odds as t&oee who confronted the readjusters of Virginia at the last election." Upon being asked if his course did not reoeive substantial ment from the administration, Gen. Mahone answered: "No, sir; we got the cold shoulder from everybody. I received no recognition from President Arthur, and asked him for none. So far as his actions were concerned, he did not seem to know that the fiercest fight ever waged against bourbonism was in progress in Virginia. Furloughs were even refused Virginia clerks in Washington who wasted te g5 home and vote the readjuster ticket." Washington, D. C., Nov. 9.—Attorney Genera] Brewster has replied to Secretary Teller's recent letter respecting the appointment of a pension office clerk to aid District Attorney Corkhill in examining cases against pension attorneys which the district attorney may wish to present to the grand jury. In his reply the attorney general says: "I agree with you that such an appointment cannot be made to examine jrases where the offenses charged are not offehses against the United States, but the district attorney in hii letter to you includes cases whero these pe nsion agents make formal applications to the pension office, well knowing the claims they presont are fraudulent. This is an offense against the United States. So far as the district attorney makes charges of crimes against the United States, he should be aided in the examination of such cases by an officer of the pension bureau, specially detailed for that purpose by the commissioner. The evil set forth by the district attorney is a growing evil, and all means that can be legally employed to suppress it ought, in my opinion, to be put in motion for that end." The attorney general closes by referring to portions of the second auditor's annual report, which he says "disclose a frightful condition of organized fraud against the poor and holpless wno have either served their country themselves and lived maimed and broken down in health, or who have left destitute widows and children, all of whom are now the victims of these designing, bad men, who rob them of their little savings and earnings under color of gains they ore never to have, and overload the public departments with work that hinders the necessary progress of their proper business.

Va., Nov. 9.—Robert V. Evans, now under arrest in this city, has evaded punishment for eighteen yean. The records of the circuit court of Borkley county show that on April 17, 1866, Evans was indicted, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to the penitentiary for three years for horse stealing. John W. Pitzer, who was sheriff at the time, started with the prisoner for Moundsville. After passing Grafton it was found that the bird bad token flight and was nowhere to be found. Nothing was heard of him until this summer, when he returned to Berkley county, and was arrested and placed in the county jell Evans says that after passing through Grafton the train on whioh Sheriff Pitser had Evans stopped at some foint not known to the prisoner, and seeing an opportunity he gave the sheriff the slip, and gradually made his way back to his home in this county. In February, 1866, becoming tired of evading arrest, he started for Ohio,taking the cars at Hagerstown, Md., and went to London, Richland county, Ohio, where he made his home. In the following January he married his coasin, Miss Mary V. Evans, who knew nothing of his past adventures. In April, this year, he concluded to return with his family to his old home, in Berkley county. He arrived here early In the summer, and settled with his wife and seven children, the latter ranging in age from four months to fifteen years. He has been leading a steady, industrious life, trying to make a comfortable living for his bright, bappy family, but it was not long before neighbors began to talk about their new friends, and it was discovered that the head of the family was the same person who eighteen years ago made his eeoape and had neVer been heard of. Chicago, Dl., Nov. 9.—A dispatch from Madison, Wis., says: -'The iron roof, inside walls and stone col lmns of the south and of the new wing of the state capital fell with a tremendous crash.

My mother died when I was six years of age. Following quickly on my mother's death, my father, a blacksmith, became blind by pieces of iron flying into his eyes. I first went out to service as a nurse girl in Ireland. Along with a number of other girls, assisted by some sisterhood, I emigrated to this country, arriving on September 8, 1880. I was employed in rainy places as a servant, and left each situation on various pretexts. Over a year ago I was led astray. I afterward became a mother. Since then I have been cruelly chided by acquaintances for my fault. The unwelcome remarks were so numerous and persistent that I yielded to a sudden impulse and threw my baby into a cistern. After my child was born I found great difficulty in sustaining it aild myself. I am very sorry for what I have done, and sincerely repent my rash act." GOV.

Styles and Sizes. St. Louis, Nov. 0.—Gov. Crittenden publishes an alleged interview which is principally a tirade of abusive allegation and insinuation against the late grand jury, whom he accuses of deliberate perjury in signing a report they knew to be false, and of consummating withiu the grand jury room a conspiracy hatched outside to defame and persecute innocent men, himself among the number. He charges also that some of the federal officials in St. Louis have had an active hand in manipulating if not drawing up the indictments, having been conversant with the inner working of the grand jury room, through its inquisitorial progress, which he characterized as an outrage which should be resented by every lover of state government in and outside of St Louis, and which he calls upon the department at Washington to investigate. The subject of this allusion is United States District Attorney Bliss, who has been employed by the Law and Order league to assist in the prosecution of the ringleaders and who characterizes the governor's statement as a bid to catch the sympathy of the advocates of state's rights.
