Just before the Atlantic City and Philadelphia accommodation train arrived at this Village two young men purchased tickets for Atco, about miles distant (toward Philadelphia. After Purchasing the tickets one of the young men entered into a oonversation with Maurice Niepling, a 17-vear-old son of Agent L. W. Niepling, to whom he made the statement that he and his friend had been arrested for the Vaters murder at Vineland, but had subsequently got away. He further stated that he had walked from Cedar Lake, an out-of-the-way placo in the midst of a pine forest, about four miles from Winslow, to the latter place, where they had taken the Camden and Atlantic railroad to this place. The young man then told a ' very exciting tale about the Vaters mystery. After they had taken the train young Niepling conveyed the information which he had obtained to Assistant Agent Georgs R Bowers, who immediately telegraphed to Atco and learned that the young men had not left the train at that plaoe. No dispatch was sent further than Atco; consequently the young men's chanoes for escape were .favorable. Since the capture of Jones, who is confined in the Hay's Landing jail* and the escape of his brother Frank, all available efforts have been made to capture the latter. It is now Inferred that in all probability the young man who was talking to Niepling is the notorious Frank Jones, for whom a reward is offered by the township of Landis. Before purchasing tickets for A too the young men counted their money, and said that if they purchased tickets for Philadelphia they wonld have but one cent remaining. The young men were between 21 and 28 years of ago. about five feet six cf seven inches in height, and neatly dressed. Where they left the train has not yet been asoertafcied. tfR.

Cincinnati, March 85.—William Bsrnor, who, by bis own confession participated with the negro, Joe Palmer, in murdering and robbing William H. Kirk in bis own stable just before Christmas, and then hauling his body out and dumping it in Mill reek, has been found guilty of simple manslaughter by the Jury. No event in the local history of the city has created such excitement. The jury were hissed and hooted, and they had to run away from the courthouse to escape the rage of the bystanders and .prevent their being transformed into a mob for the execution of vengeance on the jury. Intense indignation pervade all clasnss. Men of high stdhding, and women, too, are unreserved in expressions favoring the trying of Berner and the other three murderers in jail by Judge Lyneb's quick methods.

All manner of rumors are afloat. It is asserted in some quarters that a split is inevitable. Bandall's friends show a bold front They are angry over Watterson's threats, which they think were inspired liy Carlisle and Morrison. "No compromise," seems to be their motto. They will make the issue squarely in the caucus. A resolution will be offered deolaring, first, that it is inexpedient, unwise at'd impracticable to attempt tariff revision at this time; second, that if the conditions were otherwise, the Morrison bill is no cure for the evil of unequal tariff duties; and that, to preserve harinbny in the party, which is of the u'most importance, owing to the close proximity of the presidential campaign, tariff agitation is to be avoided, and that the wisest plan would be to adopt the Oblo platform upon which all shades of opinion in the party can unite. The Morrison men mean to contest this proposal with all their power. They claim that the minority of the party i.re in faver of honest tariff. They claim that the sentiment of the people ae indicated by the last elections, mid further evidence by the election of Carlisle as speaker of the houssustains Mr. Morrison. Carlisle, it is said, will lead the r'form movement in caucus. Of course he will have a majority at bis back, but there will undoubtedly be a sharp and bitter fight between the two factions. What Randall wi:l do in the event of defeat is a problem. His friends claim for him fifty-eight vote* in the caucus Some think he will regard this as provocation strong enough to disregard caucus discipline. If the Hani all men drclare hostility there will be a lively time That such a declaration will b3 made ii a gi owing opinion. All kinds of speculation can be heard.

Washington, March 25.—Senator Vance, from the committee on foreign relations, submitted a minority statement in opp sition to the bill reported by the committee designated to remedy the exclusion of hog pre ducts from Germany. She has been leading lady at the Wednesday club here for the past three seasons,and ias taken prominent parts in "Two Mights in Rome," "Our Boys," "Orange Blossoms" and "A Scrap of Paper." Her acting is very much like Modjeska's. She took part in several amateur performances in New York last summer, and it was there that her acting won her the renown which led to her engagement.

Mr. Vai.pe thinks Germany has the righl to exclude American hog products If the deems it prODer, and that we are not justified in impeaching the motives of the German government in so doing. He says if it be true that our pork is $o any extent unwholesome, we should endeavor by a rigid system of inspect on to remove tlo cause of complaint; but if fear of trichinosis is only a pretext and the real reason for excluding our hog products is a desire to protect their own produoers, then we are the last people on earth who ought to complain. After surrounding ourselves for tnrenty years with a protective tariff so high as to exclude all products of Germany which compete with ours, it is rather late, he says, for us to advocate retaliation against a government which follows our example. The bill reported by the committee, he continues, does not prepare the true remedy which is to remove as far as possible all festrictions from trade, and enlarge the markets for agricultural products all ovi r the world by liberal treaties and tariff laws. Mr. Vance objects especially to the last section of the bill to arm the president, while congress is i.i session, with the same arbitary power over oom.neroe now exercised by a piime minister of a federal European despotism, in order that on equal terms they may inflict mutual injury on their people until one or the other gives in. This section, hi thinks, is in effect an abrogation of the powers and duties of congress and a delegation of them to the judgment of the president In closing for the prosecution, Assistant District Attorney Parrij said that he bad gone into the case mere for the purpose of an investigation than to obtain a conviction, and that he was satisfied from the evidence that the indlotmetit for  against ths prisoner was h*ra!y justifiable.
