Sullivan, wife of Alexander Sullivan, who is spending a few days with friends in London, says while the is deeply pained at the falsehood of the imputation implied in associating her husband's name with lie Cronin mystery, her knowledge of her husband's absolute ignorance of the crime sustains her. As far as the sensation relates to her husband she says she sees in it Chicago newspaper rot, composed partly of antiquated calumnies whose untruth was shown years ago, and partly of malignant aspersions of personal or poetical enemies whose motives the Chicago editors do not appreciate. She deeply deplores Cronin's death, and says the presumption that her husband had personal interest in his death rests upon an error which for the time may seem to justify censure. This error will be perfectly shown hereafter. Those wbsaiow condemn her husband will be generous in acknowledging his patience and fortitude.at Johnstown. College Laid.

Up to 10 o'clock yesterday morning the authorities of the state's attorney and police departments were confident that in Moroney and McDonald, they had two of the principals to the crime, and no sooner, however, had the United Frees dispatches chronicled the fact that the Chicago witnesses had failed to identify the suspects, and that the court had ordered their unconditional release, than the lyre of the departments began upon another tune. It was boldly stated that the authorities had been playing a bluff game with the New Yorkers; that the picture identified by the real estate agent, expressman and others was not that of either of the New York prisoners, but of Burke, the Winnipeg suspect; that, In short, the extradition of Moroney and McDonald had been demanded, and the witnesses sent on to identify them all as a part of a bluff game, a detective being all the time on the track of Burke, and the fact that he was the mysterious Wllliatns being all the time patent to those in of the case. In the effort to justify this position it was stated with equal gravity that the steps referred to had been taken simply to satisfy Luke Dillon and the Pinkertons, both of whom, according to this ingenious theory, were just as satisfied that Moroney and McDonhld were the min wanted as the regular police officials, according to their present position, were satisfied that they were not THAT NEW YORK ASSEMBLY CEILING.

Y., June 18.—There Is no truth in the report that Sullivan has been spreeing. The facts that gave rise to the report are as follows: Last Fiiday evening when Muldoon, with his assistants, were putting Sullivan through his daily course ot exercises, and had nearly completed the u.-ual routine, Muldoon propo-ed more work for the champion, which he refused to do. Muldoon insisted upon it The champion then became angry and upon the impulse of the moment left the training quarters and proceeded to an adjacent hotel. Muldoon, fearing that he might indulge in drinking, requested the proprietor of the hotel and the saloons to close their bars, whioh they did. At the hotel Sullivan was sullen and stubborn, but his friends finally prevailed Upon him to return to Muldoon's place, ftullivan saw his folly and willingly apologized to Muldoon, and they immediately resumed training. In an interview Mr. Muldoon said Sullivan had not di unk anything and with the exception of the few words mentioned he had been very obedient in regard to all duties pertaining to his course of training.

The police, on the contrary, regard him as an unmitigated liar. He has full access to the newspapers, and is allowed to talk with whomever he may please.
