The vote was 5 to 11. "Call the roll," said Mr. Rdroimds, and the chair repeated the order to the clerk. N*w York, Aug. Mr. Tilden's shrewdness was not confined entirely to law and politics. He was thrifty and careful in business speculations, and his prescience in thesematters was almost marvelous. He frequently visited Wall street before he became governor of New York, and his dealings in railroad and other stocks were conducted with great judgment and skilL During the winter of 72-'78he -frequently made his  pearance there, warmly wrapped in a long naolalrin overcoat, which completely enveloped him from his shoulders to his ankles, and it was his habit at this time to have his coachman drive along Broadway within hailing distance while he walked along on foot, tolHng no great interest in the crowds whom he met, tat seeming absorbed in some thought of a far away subject When near Fourteenth street, on his return homo, he would invariably signal his coachman and ride the remainder of the distance. On Wednesday Sergeant William Kelaer, who had learned that young Pfister was seen on the evening of his death in company with Mrs. Barton, found that young woman at the house of her sister in West Fortieth street, New York, and to him she confessed that she had killed Pfister. She declared that she did it in defense of her honor. She met Pfister after 10 o'clock that evening, she said, and he asked her to take a walk with him. As she had known him for a long time she consented. She says Pfister attempted to abuse her, and in the struggle that followed palled a pistol from his pocket, firing one shot in the air and threatening if sbe did not stop screaming he would brain her. She seized the revolver and struck him on the head and face with it • "FATHER" SHERMAN'8 WOES. The Married I'rieet Cos fro a ted by Another Claimant. Brooklyn, Aug. ft.—Father Sherman, who married pretty Tillie McCoy, and who is now living with her in Brooklyn, is accused of having had another love affair before his wedding, and that he so far forgot himaelf as to marry the first girl, thereby making hknself a bigamist when Tillie became bis wife. Ellia Barns, a tall, slightly built girl of pleasing features, who said that she resided at No. 1,035 Fulton street, Brooklyn, yesterday evening appeared before Justice Walsh, in that,city, and charged Father Sherman with being the father of her unborn child. Eliza, who is but 18 years of age, felt her poeition so keenly that when asked by the justice to tell her story she at first burst into, tears. The girl declares she was lawfully married to Father Shennan. "Before that is done," interrupted Mr. Allison."But nothing else can be done," insisted Mr. Edmunds, and so the call was proceeded with, and showed the preaance of thirty-three senators—not a quorum. Mr. Allison uaieutod Ida previous statement by making the appropriations of the present current yfar exceed those of last year by C45,000,000 instead of $83,000,000. When the train .reached Bainbridge the alarm was given, and the whole community • turned out to catch the murderer. Winchester lives at New Albany. He was taken to Crawfordsville, where he is now' resting qoistly, and the surgeon gives some hope at his recovery. ■ .. Then Mr. Edmunds changed hi* motion tor a recess so as to make it extend to six minutes before 4, and itsted into • illMwrnlrm with the chair as to the parliamentary practice and rule in oase of the afasenca of a quorum, the chair holding that no motion but one to adjourn, or to compel the attendance of absent members, was in order. The question could not be decided by submitting it to the senate, as the asms difficulty about a quorum woold arise there; and so by general consent there was a sMpwwkm of any attempt at business until the hands on the clock dial indicated 8:45. There are many who express the belief that her confession is designed to save the guilty party. She is of medium height, slight in build, and in spite of the fact of her marriage in February last she is only t5 years old. It is thought that she would have bean physioally incapable of inflicting the fatal wounds. She was remanded foD a hewrlng. Last night there was grttt activity at the station house, and shortly before midnight three prisoners were brought in. Henry Stonewald was the first of the three. . Abraham Psalt, the husband of Florence, soon followed, and Lena Marshall, alias "Pits," came later. These three wore charged with being accessories to the crime. Coroner Hesse and Detective Ihne then went to Florence's cell. She, .when asked directly Whether her husband had tilled Pflster, said that she could not say whetiier be did or not, out admitted at least that the murder wm com mitted by a man who looked like him. She then admitted that she had Bed when she told the story about her defense of her virtue. Her husband declared that he had net seen his wife for months before the night of the murder. He met her last Friday, when she told him that she was Implicated in a murder r/aA would have to leave the city.

Mr. TOden had a peculiar genius for financial matters. Without being parsimonious, he was very close and economical in all his ventures, and calculated the value of every penny he received and expended. To this characteristic is attributed the accumulation of his vast fortune. No one of his political associates or even one of his opponent® charges him with haviqg acquired a dollar from the offices of trust the people imposed upon him. All concede that he was a shrewd operator in railway speculations, but that he conducted them legitimately and honestly. Close observers who enjoyed his confidence estimate the value of the property he has left at from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000. "1 wonder what he has done with itf' was a frequent question among his friends yesterday."I'll tell you what I think," salt a prominent Democratic politician, who had known him intimately. "Mr. Tilden had no desire to perpetuate his possessions by keeping them entire in his family. He was very fond of all his relatives and has no doubt serai to it that they are well provided for. I have often heard him speak of his wish to found some institution that would be of general good to the people of this city all who might visit it. He was a great admirer of the philanthropic spirit that animated Peter Cooper's life, and it would not surprise me if he has lfcft sufficient money to endow a college in Npw York or found a library, with his splemliCr collection of books as a fauis."

Father Sherman said last night, when informed of the woman's charge, that he had never heard of her before, and that her story was a lie absolutely from beginning to end.

Aug. 6.—There is war among the brewers and saloonkeepers of this city tyat has arisen over a quiet boycott instituted some Hn» ago against Sduaider's and Steifle beer, these two firms having antagonized the Beer Workers union.

The saloonkeepers in turn enlarged their glasses until they were selling a little more than a quart of beer for a nickel Thin has aroused the other saloonkeepers, and (yn organisation has been perfected with the intention of putting a stop to cheap beer.
