Some of the officials met them, and after much persuasion induced thorn to disperse, promising that Showers should receive full justice. Showers insists that the children were murdered by a man known as "Cowboy" Hoffnagle, who was married to Showers' daughter, tho mother of the children, after she had given birth to five illegitimate children, with as many different fathers. Hoffnagle has recently been in this neighborhood, and Showers says that Hoffnagle kidnapped and murdered them and buried them in the ditch. Hoffnagle may be arrested. by Their Stepfather.

McEvoy's saloon, corner of Jackson and Cherry streots, at 11:30 last night by Policeman Edward Hahn, of tho Delancoy street station. Both men were pretty well under the influenoo of liquor. It was Hahn's day off, and he had been on tlic policemen's excursion to Excelsior grove. Hussey had been at work all day at Castle Garden and returned to his home. No. 50 Jackson street, opposite McEvoy's place, pretty well tired out. He lay down for a nap aftor his supper and got up shortly after 9 o'clock, aud in his bare feet and with his 15-year-old daughter strolled out in Jackson street toward Grand. He crossed over Grand street and wont into Poet William Geoghegan's place. Hahn was there, and Hussey and he began drinking. Hussey's little daughter left her father in tho place. Hahn and Hussey remained In Mr. Geoghegan's place about an hour, and drinks were repeatedly called for and swallowed. As they drank, Hahn, who was in plain clothes, began to grow ugly and said a number of sharp things to Hussey. Hussey was disposed to be jovial, but at last he left the place, saying that he had got past his cjuarreling days. New York, June 3.—Thero was a little breeze yesterday to freshen up the Jake Sharp trial. Rumors flew around that efforts had been made to tamper with the jurymen. It was stated that several of them hail been approached, and that ifistrlct Attorney Martine had traced these attempts near enough to intimate friends of Mr. Sharp to warrant some serious proceedings in tho near future. These stories had an exciting effect upon tho defendant and his counsel, and they could hardly find words sufficiently strong to characterise them as malicious falsehoods. Rumor* of Bribery.

Mrs. Penseyres' Chances. Minneapolis, Minn., Jane a—Pat Killin's backers here and in Duluth are raising $5,000 to cover Richard K. Fox's forfeit on Jake Kilrain, and to arrange a fight between these two for the heavy weight championship of the world. Increasing tho Force In Order to Rnsh Buffalo, June 8.—In the trial of lira. Penseyres, the consensus of opinion seems to be that unless the defense prove the prisoner to have been insane at the time that the murder was committed the Jury will find a verdict of guilty. Only once before in Erie county has a woman been convicted of murder in the first degree, and in that case the governor commuted the sentence to life imprisonment In that case tho woman was convicted for the brutal murder of her little son. Washinoton, June 3.—Deputy Commi» sioner of Pensions McLean states that the pension oftico estimates that undor tho Mexican pension bill about 30,000 claims will bo filed. Congress estimated 40,000. So talis,100 claims have been filed, of which 3,000 were of soldiers' widows and the remainder by the survivors of tho Mexican war themsoiveB. Of tho number filed only 2,300 certificates of pension have been issued, owing, as he states, to the lack of clerical force. Beginning, however, with to-morrow, tho force of the old army and navy division of tho pension office, which has cognizance of this class of claims, will be greatly increased by details from other divisions, and from, that timo it is expected that the force will b» ablo to dispose of cases at tho rate of 200 per day, or about 5,000 per month. Most of th® claims are from tho and the age of claimants ranges botweon 75 and 80 years. Ono claimant's age is over 100 years. Because of the advanced age of the claimant* tho pension office is making every exertion in its power to quickly adjudicate these claims. the Claims Through. He went back to Jackson street, and Hahn followed him and continued to say ugly things and dared Hussey to fight him.

Boston, June 8.—The rogatta committee of the Eastern Yacht club has decided that the regatta of the club, which takes place on June 21 off Marblehead shall bo sailed over a triangular coarse of thirty-six miles, oacb leg being twelve miles. The steel schooner yacht Julia and the schooner Sachem will be among the starters. An invitation will be extended to the owners of New York yachts to take part in the races, end Lieut. Henn, of the Galatea, will also be asked to participate.Hussey became angry, and said to Hahn: "Go away; you are only a boy copper." This enraged Hahn, and he stepped up to Hussey to strike him. Hussey met him half way and said: "Every day that I spend in this great republic, I must say that I am more and more astonished at the extent to which American sympathy lias been stirred by the events of tho lafct four weeks in Canada. I tell you candidly I would feel pained and grieved at the gorgeous praises showered upon me, but I feel tliut I am only a humble agent. Lansdowne and his admirers in Toronto and Kingston, have been more successful apostles of the Irish cause than we could ever be. Our feeblo voices would have only told of Lansdowne's deeds to a New York audience, but Lord Lansdowne's mobs have published that tale the wide world over as loudly as if it were blazoned by the archangel's trumpet. The horrible moments I experienced in Canada will lie but lightly in my memory when I remember that the brutalities of Lansdowno's mob have illustrated more fully than 100,000 speeches of mine could have done the true charac.er of Lansdowne. There is not a man here to-night who loves liberty or justice who does not know that the forces we aro lighting against are those of landlord cruelty and oppression, and that its allies and defenders are the forces of darkness and intolerance. Lansdowne lias said everything for himself that he had got to say, but I believe that his most bitter partisan dare not stand up in Canada and deny that every charge wo have made against him has boon practically proved by his own confession. We have convicted him of laying waste a whole strip of country five miles in extent, stripping it bare of its whole population. We have convicted him of that terrible Crirno which he committed rather than abate a farthing of the terrible rack rents which his own arbitrator and every official arbitrator in the country acknowledged to be most unjust and severe." "Jimmy" Hope's Return. "If you don't go away I'll smack you, old mnn as I am." New Yohk, June 3.—"Jimmy" Hope, one of the Manhattan bank burglars, arrived last evening from California in charge of two detectives. Hope had just completed a term of imprisonment in California when bis extradition to this state was arranged for. He escaped from Auburn prison three years before he had served out his time there, and it is possible that he will complete his unfinished term there beforo he is tried for the Manhattan bank burglary. By thi3 timo they had edged toward tho door and, when just outside of it, Hahn pulled out his revolver and said: Tho following postofflces are discontinued: Derby, Conn.; West Marlborough Station, Mass.; Brick Church, Orovestend and Watsessing, N. J.; Grubtown, Cambria, Morrellville and Coopersdale, Pa.; Normal Park, Ills. New York, June 3.—The executive board of the National Association of Amateur Athletes, at its meeting last night, refused to reopen the case of Malcolm W. Ford. Ford therefore remains a professional. "I'll show you whother I am a boy copper." He fired one shot at Hussey. It did not hit Hussey, and as Hahn turned and walked along Jackson street, toward Grand, Hussey followed him. Half way up the block Hahn turned and fired three more shots at Hussey, one of which struck him in the abdomen and passed through his liver. THE PRISONER TESTIFIES. Baltimore, June &—William M*Moon, the champion wrestler, clearly demonstrated to a goodly sized audience at the Monumental theatre last night that Andro Delmars, the Frenchman, is no match for him. The matoh was for $100 a side and the gate receipts, best two in three, Grmoo-Roman. The first fall was won by Muldoon in four minutes, with a waist and neck hold. He threw Delmars squarely on the broad of his back, the back of his head striking first. The Frenchman lay for about three seconds as though dead. He finally struggled to his feet and staggered about blindly for a moment or two, when bo fell again like a stricken gladiator. He finally gained his seat, when it was found that his injuries were insignificant and that the staggers were duo to his having been stunned for the time being. In the second bout Muldoon played with Delmars, and finally rolled Him over on his back. Delmars then challenged the victor to wrestle a catch as catch can match. Muldoon said that he was disappointed in Delmars and that he would wrestle both Delmars and Antoine Pierre, the Greek, on the same night. It is probable that another match will be made. Barclay Peak Takes the Stand In De- fease of His Own Life. Mount Holly, June 8.—The evidence for the state in the Peak murder trial is all in. William Andbrson, father of the murdered girl, testified that some time before the shooting Peak had denied to him a yimor then current that ho was paying attention to Katie. He had never ordered her not to go with Peak, but had requested that she wouldn't. Two LItm Lost. Hahmsbubg, June 3,—Those in the best position to asoertain Gov. Bearer's views with regard to calling a special session of tho legislature say that he cannot be induced to do to under any circumstances. He will veto many appropriations which he might otherwise have approved. All efforts to trace the responsibility for the failure to have the bill signed in the Seaale have so far proved unavailing. All who had anything to do with handling the bill after it was finally passed have been quite successful in shitting any blame from themf* rjf w vh? geDeral opinion is settling down to the belief that it was a matter carelessness and not of intent. Ho Special Seealmu Policeman Deevey, of the Delanoey street station, ran up, collared Hahn, and took him before Hussey, who was still on his feet. Hussey walked with Deevey and Hahn to his home, at SO Jackson street, and sent up stairs for his coat He then walked with the officers to Gouvernew Street hospital, three bloclrs way. He identified Hahn as the man' who shot him, and Deejrey took Hahn to the station, where Sergeant Marrett locked him up. Dr. O'Hanlon did not probe Hussey's wound. The doctor said that Hussey would probably die, but that if laparotomy could save him that would be resorted to. Ebis, Pa., June 3.—Reports of the finding of wreckage near Northeast last evening ca tablish the fate of the sloop yacht Modjeska, of Rochester, N. Y. The owners, William Briggs, son of a Rochester florist, and William Jonas, his couidn, were inexperienced sailors, and notwithstanding the warning of the life saving crew and other lake mes left this port in the faoe of a storm. They had purchased the boat in Toledo, and were trying to reach homo for Decoration day. CAPT. EADS' SUCCESSOR, Col. Andrews, of Allegheny City, to Take Charge of the Canal. Pittsburg, June 8.—Col. James B. Andrews, of Allegheny City, will arrive homo from Mexico in three weeks. A meeting of all the stockholders of the Eads Ship railway, at Tehauntepec, will then be called, and. the result of that gathering will probably bethat Col. Androws will bo choson a3 the late- Cap t. Eads' successor as engineer of the gigantic project. This will be a step of the utmost, importance to Pittsburg capitalists. Thirty wealthy gentlemen, iron manufacturers, have. ♦15,000,000 invested in the scheme. To have, ono of their own number to personally manage their interests, it is thought, will bo an impetus to greater faith here in the matter, whilo the fact that Capt. Eads' close business associate takes hold of the work just where he left it will encourage the national foeling. as to the accomplishment of the task. Barclay W. Peak took the stand In his own defense. He said he kept company with Katie and visited her often. He had been instructing her to shoot with a revolver on the Sunday before tbe fatal Monday, and she took the revolver home with her. He did not shoot her, nor did he meet her that night. He was home all the evening. Columbia, S. C., June 8.—The wife of Wiley Moore, a colored tenant on the plantation of Col. S. Elmore, near Greenwood, S. C., locked her two children, aged respectively 1 and 2 years, in her house Wednesday morning and went to spend the day with a neighbor, about a mile distant. During her absence the house waa burned, and the two children perished in the flames. Children Burned to Death. Capt. Hussey is 59 years old, and has saved thirty-five persons from drowning. He has a wife and four children. Hahn has bee n on the force one year, and was formerly a barkeeper for Patrick Hickey. "The pistol that has been found is mine, but this is the first time I have seen it since that Sunday night when she took it from mo. I never asked her to have me or threatened to kill her if she refused." Ft it valuo for your money. Brown's Bee Hiye. Boys'pants 23e., boys' waists 15c.

Charges of Grand Larceny Against Fire Chief Nevins. To he Tried for Murder. Brooklyn, June 3.—Fire Chief Nevins has given $5,000 bonds to answer to the indictment of grand larceny brought in against him by the grand jury. The indictment charges Novins with having obtained through false pretenses the sum of $3,825 from Henry W. Pope, representing the Citisens' Electric Light company. Nevins, it is charged, told Pope that the money was necessary to procure a charter for the company. The chief says that he will be able to disprove the charges. Mr. Nevins has been connected with the fire department for more than twenty years, and has been the executive head of the force for over twelve years. So far ho has been the only sufferer by the legislative inquiry of the Bacon committee, and his indictment for grand larceny has caused some excitement in Brooklyn. Brooklyn, June 8.—Augustus and Townsend Johnson, who confessed to the firing of Palmer's cooperage on Saturday night last, are anxious to plead guilty of that crime, but District Attorney Ridgway has secured a postponement of their case in order that the men may be tried for the murder of Watchman Deery, whose body was found in the cooperage.  REBUKING A PASTOR, Brown's Bee Hivo. Straw hats at very low prioee. Mi-. O' i rien went on to say that they had convicted Lord Lansdowne by his own agents, and lie felt that it was his duty, and nothing more, to lull Lord Lansdowne to his face and in his owu camp of the crime that he had been guilty of. Lord Lansdowne's conduct had lieon so bitterly cruel that he should be turuoji iruiu the free soil of America. He bad added to his guilt the instigation of cowardly crinia. In Kingston there was a viio plot to murder him, and Lord Lansdowne knew it Four hundred volunteers, with their ski.1 arms on, aided the roughs in tht i: cowardly attempt upon tho lives of his party. Mr. O'Brien spoke of the four uews{DaiDer correspondents who accompanied Juui to Cacada as the representatives of 4iiJ,OUO,(XM froo American people, as being the jsavkirs of liis lite. It was owing to their prtfaeiico that ho and his friend were now again on American soil Lord Lansdowne, he said, now stands imprisoned in a small Orange preserve, and does not dare face three-fourths of the' people whom he is supposed to govern. He is trembling at the results of tho course he has pursued. In conclusion Mr. O'Brien denounced the Tory government of England, and said that the Irish jjoople were becoming more united every day, and Catholics and Protestants were now standing shoulder to shoulder in tho cause of justice.
