This ia the aecond act iv a tragedy which begun last fall in thia city, where Johnaou and his family then resided. On Nov. 30th, 1883, Mrs. Johnson committed suicide. Alter her death rumors were circulated to the effect that the cruelty of her husband was the Inspiring cause of taking her life, aud Johnson, to exculpate himself, gave to the public a number of letters written by Mrs. Johnson to her hus- band, in one of which she admitted that Improper relations hod existed between hei self and Henry. Theae letters were written In a atyle at ouce graphic and powerful, and their publication attracted wide attention. Johnsuu is a well- known lawyer and political speaker, but for some time past has held a post* tion in the Penalou Department ofthe government, the duties of whioh required bia preaenue in Tennessee.

He Thinks Blalae'a Defeat a Pahlle Beeeeelty. ft II Sept. 23 ?Carl Sohurz spoke to-night in the People's Theatre on tbe issues of the campaign. He spoke in German Schurz said to-day, in an interview: "Iexpect to make a very thorough tour of Ohio, makiug apeechea in every section of tha State. The cam- paign is growing more spirited and tbe attendance at public meetinga ia very large. Thia shows that the people are aroused and are thinking, and I am iv great hopes that their better judgment will prevail. No; I am not making the temperance question a prominent feature of my apeechea to tbe Germans, but merely press nt ingthe attitude of two csndidstea on that question. I think the Germans will be largely iufluenced in tneir votes by the question of the official Integrity of the candidates. The German people bave very fixed views infavor of honesty, aud cannot be deceived by explanations or excuses. If tbe election was held to- day Wiseonsiu, Illinois snd Miohigaa would rote for Cleveland. Seventy per oeut of the Illinois Germans would vots far him. I think the defeat of Blame a public necessity- For that reaaon I think every man whodesires an honest national administration should vote for Newman for Secretary of State. The Ohio vote in October will be taken ss a declaration of tbe sentiment of the State on national issues, by other sections of the country. If Newman ahould be elected in October it wotild practically settle the contest, as I think Wi cousin, Illinois and Michigan would then oast their electoral votes against Biaiue." Mr. Schurz was aaked if he had seen the statement that he is receiving $250 a speech from the Democratic managers. "Yes," waa his reply. "I hays noticed that such a story is being circulated. The facts are that 1 am not receiving one oent from any eource for my speech- ea in thia oontest aud that I am paying all my awn traveling expenses." BLAIBB IX PHILADELPHIA. Ma la Kxteaalvely (slabbered Over by the I nlon Leaajae, Philadelphia, Sept. 23.?At about 3 A. m. Blame and party returned from s drive to the park. After luncheon Blsine proceeded to the Union League club bonae for *? public reception. This took place in the large assembly roam. Blame waa attended hy a committee of thirty of the young members of the League in evening dreas. Thousands of people streamed through the room until naif past 4, when the reception termi- nated and Blame drove back to the Con- tinental Hotel for dinner. While the party was -till at dinner, Senator Don Cameron came to bid Blame good bye. As soon as it was known in the hotol that Blame had returned from the Union League, guests began to gatherin groupea ia the corridor leading to hia room, and just ss dinner ended some Udies cashed open the door far enough to see the distinguished gusat and asndidats, and stood gszing at him. When Blame's attention was called to them he turned from tho gentlemen with whom he was talking and shook bands with tbe lubes. At about 7:30, Blame, protected on one side by Klkins.ond on the other by Presi- dent Baker, of theLeague, made his way through ths uaual crowd to hia csrriage anal was driven to the private entrance of the Club House, where again the po- lice hod to hold the people in check while he made his way into the build- ing. Tho Club House was relslively move crowded than the atreet and Blame Was again compelled to uudergo a hand shaking ordeal. At a few minutes past eight Mr. Sanson, the first President of the League, requested all but Blame and his party to withdraw from the room, which waa becoming very close. Tbis request was complied with slowly and while the gentlemen in tbe room were leaving there were others begging to be allowed "a word withBlame," bnt Benson was oompelled to be inexorable. Blame was then escorted to a platform erected In front of the building where he reviewed a parade led by General Hartranft as Chief Marshal. The procession passed the stand and was enthusiastically ap- E landed. From the Union League club ouse one could see about a mile and a half down tbe broad atreet. The pro- oeeslon filled the whole of this space and daring the whole time Biaiue re- mained on the stand tbe torches appear* Ing in the distance were like a solid mass of moving tire and oould be seen filing into tha broad street at the tower end, AH tbs clubs wore neat uniforms and moved In military order and the marching of each club was admire* bio. As ths procession passed the stand it J;ave three cheers for James G. Blame or or "Jsme* O. Blame, our next Presi- dent," and Mr. Blame In each instance removed his hat and bowed. The Youog Republican Club af Philadelphia, a body of unite young gentlemen, were espe- cially demonstrative. Tbey cheered fa college boy style as tbey passed, aod wars in turn loudly cheered by the orowds. The Mayor of the oity expressed the opiuion that there were mors than .10,000 men marching, and he believed that half of the population of were out looking at them. 11 was understood that there was to be no speaking, ao no demand waa made fur a speech. At 9:15, while the procession was still iv full force, Blame bowed repeatedly aud left the atand. Upuu entering tbe club house he took some refreshments, after which he passed out amid the moat euthuaiaatlo cheeriog. He entered a carriage and waa driven rapidly to the depot and left for Now York at 9:33 on a apecial train. THK WIIIMKYFA 11.1 HK. Neweouiu. Buchanan a('o. Kuan cially Wrecked. Loumvilli, Ky., Bept. 23.?The de- velopmeuts thia afternoon iv the assign* mental Newoomb, Buchanan A Company were of a sonsational nature. Hereto- fore ibe assignments of the company were considered as formal petitions for an ex- tension of time in which to take up their paper. This time the assignment was made general, snd Mr. Geo. W. Norrls was namsd as assignee to make a nasi disposition of ail tbe property of the partners for the benefit oi their creditors. Very Rtlte sensation was occasioned, the predominant feeling being one of regret that the firm had gone under. George C. and Andrew Buchanan left the oity on Sunday, leasing no olue to their where- abouts. It was then that the suspicion of crookedness was first aroused, and ru- mors were set afloat. The tumors to-day say that the firm has made an improper use of money sent tbem by customers to pay taxes on whisky which they sold. Another Is that they have hypothecated receipts for whisky out of bond which did not represent tbe goods described upon the face of these receipts. The rumors firat took a .augible form this afternoon when Mr. George W. Noma, the assignee of the company, resigned aud turned the entire affairs over lo tbe Fidelity Trust Company. Tbe cause of this step, it Is said, on the part of Mr. Norris, was the finding of the affairs in such a oompli- etted condition as to oauae great trouble in straightening them out. It is aaid that the affairs of ths linn are in a much worse condi- tion than the most despondent creditors ever supposed The holders of receipts immediately rushed to the collector's office to see if duplicate had been made aud it is positively stated, but not by the Internal Revenue department, that $10,000 bonded warehoese receipts have been discovered which have been dupli- cated. Agenilkinau who has had inti- mate business aud personal relations with both members of tbe firm und is in a position to know positively what he asserts to be true, said to an Associated Press reporter: "Yon may safely say that the indications are that George aud Andrew have joined Payne, Viley and Euo and tbe rest of them in Cauads. The tbory of suicide will not do, for surely both partners did not Income insane at the same momeat. There is no explans tion except crookedness and flight from the laws." The asselsof the Bucbanaua are immeuae but cannot be made immediately available. Liabili- ties unknown. The first aasignment in March, 1878, amounted to only a sus- pension. At that time the liabilities were $1,630,000, and included ia the assignment about 1500,000 of personal property which was exempt from cred- itors. Anextension was granted until 1882. Tbe company was successful in itaoperations and discharged about one- fifth of tbe liabilities when another assignment was made. This time the debts of the firm aggregate 91,000,000, wilha total value of assets of $330,000. POLITICAL AMHKMSMKVTN. Aa Kxprenelen From a Member ef the Civil Nervier CosslmKi Washington, Sept. 23.?Professor Gregory, of the Civil Service Commis- sion, has written a long letter upon the subject of political assessments. The chief points are contained in the follow- ing extracts: The grand interest of those sections of tbe Civil Service act which relate to contributing for political purposes were two fold. First, to pre- vent the nee of government places and government funds as forces tocontrol elections. Second, to protect govern- ment employes from compulsory contri- butions to political funds. A clerk is employed to work for the people and not for a party, and hie pay oomee from the people and not from hia party. What he earns is, therefore, hit own and tt ia gross tyranny to extort from him any part of his earnings bya threat of removal or by a promise of promotion. The clerk, outside of his clerkship, is stilt a citizen and aa a citi- zen haa the common interest of sll good citizens tn the progress and welfare of his country, and the common right to vote and express opinions, to form asso- ciations with those of like opinion and to use his money in all lawful ways to propagate his opinions, but as an officer or employe of the government he is strictly under the authority of Congress ivsll his official work and relation and must not violate any of the four prohibitions of the Civil Service Act, bnt outside of his official life aud relations, beyond the realm of his duties lo the government and be- yond his connection with government people and places, be becomes a simple citizen and has all the duties, intercuts and rights of his fellow citizens not in public employ. The Interpretation of tbe civil service law Is easy and the path of duty required by it ia plain to all' who honestly regard as Its grand aims tbe abeotute defenss of the ballot box from all corrupt or corrupting offi- cial influence and the protection of gov- ernment officials from political assess ments, for these two great public de- mands of the law must and will be fully and fairly enforced. Railway AsTalra. Chicaoo, Sept. 23.?The Transoonti- nsntal Railway Association met to-day. The principal subject under discussion wss ths apportionment of territory smong tbe various lines. The Northern Pacific was conceded all the territory north of Portland, Oregon, bat whether the road will be admitted as a competi- tor on California business proper was not decided. The catting of passenger rates by the Sunset Route was referred to a committee of general passenger sgents, with Instructions to report to- morrow. The relative position of the parties lo the great struggle was sharply defined to-day by a state- ment from both sides. General Man- ager Robinson of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fa said he had not changed his position regarding tbe tripartite alliance, and will antsr into no agree- ment regarding the Colorado and Utah business so long as tha tripartite com- pact is an forded. General Manager Cable says that tha Directors of the Rock Island have voted that tbe tri- partita must stand and intend to see it carried oat. Important Land Traaaiar.

Those iuaide observed the masonry vault gradually sinking. The robbers beneath worked on, ignorant of their danger. At one o'clock a Mexioan vol- unteered to go down into the cellar and investigate. He had taken a few steps on the stairs when be saw some one corn- ing up. The Mexican fired without a word and Ihe man fell dead. The body was brought out The watchmen began tearing up the floor of the bank and the adjoinlur building with the evident in- tention of shooting the robbers on Bight. The work is alow, tbe men fearing to get hi range of those below, who at times are seen rushing from oue shadow to another. Up to thia time nothing more than a hide and seek game has beon done. The dead robber was recognized as one of the masons who built ths vault. The excitement is intense. James Searson, tbe dead rob- ber, was welt known and respect- ed and leaves considerable prop- erty. He died before divulging hia confederates A close inspection of the tunnel this evening hy the police failed to find the other robbers. The supposition is that they were outside. The officers claim to have possession ofa olue and hope to apprehend the re- mainder of the gang. A trip through the tunnel showa long and patient work on the part of the robbers, the tunnel being sixtyfeet in length and construct- ed on actentific principles; containing provisions, water and a full outfit of mining tools. It must hare been three months in construction. Bob Ford and Dick Llddell, formerly members of ttie James gang in Missouri, have been ordered by tbe vigilantes to leave town on aaspiciou of connection with the projected bank robbery. Pier- son, the dead fobber, it is thought was employed by others who planued the scheme. ATrauElf; Death. Chetenxk.

The Times-Courier has the following items: "The Pomona Democratic Club has procured a large flag, and it now floats gracefully in the breezes from the Cleveland and Hendricks pole on the corner of Second and Main streets. /Etna Lodge No. 107, K. of P., con- ferred tbe firat and second ranks on four strangers last Monday evening, and will confer tbe third rank upon four Esqmres next Monday evening.

Tbe well is ou tbe side of Indian Hill, and the pipe will be cut twenty feet below the present surface, thereby giving a large The official count of the number of school children in Santa Anaand Pomo- na, wherein tbe former was beaten by tbe Utter, eight to seven, must have acted aa a first class opiate upon its fighting proclivitiea; but it haa spoken again, and the burden of the speech is that that town will poll more votes than Pomona. We sincerely hope SanU Ana will poll 500 votes as tbe Herald of that place claims it will. Of one thing wa are sure, if Santa Asa hod enjoyed a moiety of the prosperity aud settlement that Pomona has enjoyed, and is now enjoying", she would be able to poll 2500 votes without an effort. But we do not believe it will poll 500 votes. It only voted 456 two years ago, since which time that voting precinct has been largely curtailed and is left now with a ? redact only about four by six miles, o our knowledge, no one has ever claimed that Pomona would at the com- ing election out-vote SanU Ana. We expect here to poll between four and five hundred votes, but there are at least two hundred new-comers, actual settlers of voting age who cannot vote on ac- count of not having resided one year in the State. Postmaster French is puzzled. The other day there came a package through the office rolled up in a newapsper and addressed to Santa Ana. An examina- tion of the singular package broke him up. It is a cotton garment branded in Urge letters double X, domestic queen, wsrrsnted Ac. It ia about three feet long and a foot and a half wide, has a low top to it with a lacing around the neck and opens in front and is adorned with edging, is flounced at the bottom, and has awfully short arms, with crochet work around the sleevee.

The article oAmo from Pomona, ? Santa Ana Standard. We were shown yesterday a few twigs from olive trees 'grown'en Rev. C. F. Loop's place. They were literally loaded with fruit, which is of extra Urge sise. Agentleman just down from SanU Barbara and who had just visited Ell wood Cooper's olive orchard before coming here, says that the trees there do not bear so heavily and the fruit is much smaller than that from Mr. Loop's grove. The cultivation of the olive promises to be one of tbe most profita- ble industries of Southern California, and from what information we are able to gather, the lands along the Sierra Madre range are proving the very beat for this kind of fruit. ? Pomona Timet- Courier. Ayoung man by the name of Proudy, who has been at work in Bear Valley, was r«turning yesterday, packing a Urge navy six-shooter aud, in endeavoring to extract the cartridges, by some slip tbe pistol was discharged, the ball striking one of hie legs below the knee, ranging down through the flesh and passing out through tbe bottom of his foot. For- Innately no bones were broken, and a mere flesh wound of tbe kind is likely to soon heal. The accident ooeurred near Forsee'a place, and Proudy was brought iute town on a buokboard wagon and placed In tha hospital. --San Bernardino index.

Mrs. Mary Stlllwell Kdisou, wife of the inventor, Thomas Alva Edison, died suddenly at 2a. m. yesterday at her late residence at Menlo Park, N. J. She was 29 years of oge and leaves three children. The story of her marrisge to Mr. Edison is a aisgularly atrauge and romantic one. When he firat formed her acquaintance he was about 25 years of age. He had juat uiveuted the chemical telegraph, by means of which oould be transmitted, he claimed, on a eiugle wire, 3,000 words a minute. The telegraph, notwithstanding thia, how- ever, became euhservieut tv the Morse syatem. While working on tbe chem- ical telegraph heemployed several young women to puuch the hotea in the paper. Among them was Mies Mary Stillwell. One day he was ataudlng behind her chair examining a telegraphic instru- ment. "Mr. Edison," remarked Miss Still- well, suddenly turning arouud, "I can always tell wheu you are bchiud me or near me." '.How do you account for that?" me- chanically asked Mr. Edison, still ab- sorbed inhia work, "I don't know, lam sure," ahe quietly answered; "but 1 seem tofeel when you are near me." "Miaa Stillwell," aaid Mr. Kdiaon.turn* lag round now in his turn and looking his interlocutor in tha face, "I've been thinking considerably of you of late, and if you are willingtohave me, I'd like to marry you." "You astonish me!" exoUhned Miss Stillwell. "I?l never?". "I know you never thought I would be your wooer," iuterrupUd Mr. Ediaon, "but think over my proposal, Miss Still- well, aud talk it over with your mother." Then he added, in the same off-hand, business-like way, as though he might be experimenting upon a uew mode of courtship: "Let me know as early as possible, aa if you consent to marry tne, aud your mother ia willing, we can be married by next Taeaday." This was the extent of Mr. Edison's courtship. It ia hardly ueoeesary to add that the highly-favored ladr laid the ab- rupt proposal before ber mother. "Ma has consented," aha tjldMr. Edi- son the next day. "That's all right," said Mr. Kdiaoa ia reply. "We wilt be married a week from to-day." And so it waa. The two were married ina week and a day from the beginning of Mr. Ediaou'a novel and preciptUte courtship. In connection with hia mar- riage, however, a atory ia told quite as singular, but fully in keeping with the one already given touching his court- ship. It is said that directly following the marriage, he entered his laboratory in his wedding suit, and hastily throwing bis coat on a bench began work. "Why, surely, you are not going to work on your wedding night?remon- ,r- strated bis chief assistant. "Suppose itia!"he quickly answered, setting to work with renewed zeal; "the Gold k Stock Company don't care for that. They want their instruments to- morrow, and they've got to have them, marriage or no msrriage; so here goes." The weddiug trip of Mr. Edison ran into the mysteries of inventions. His wedded life, however, is said to have been a singularly happy one.? iVew York Herald. Upon the reliable authority of the Hon. Wm. H. Jessup, member of the State Board of Horticulture, we learn that thirty-sixof his oherry trees, cov- ering one-third of an acre, yielded 2,523 pounds of cherries, which sold on the ground for $186.61. Between these aame trees were gjoseberry plants, which also yielded the aame year 7,534 pounda of fruit, which sold on the ground for $925 30, thus making the total yield for that year of one-thi id of an acre the sum of $1,101.91.

[Special to the Herald byAnsociated Pretn]Indianapolis, Sept. 23 ?A special
reports thekilling of Edwin Henry byCop tain Johnson at Hsyesville, Term.,to-day. This ia the aecond act iv atragedy which begun last fall in thiacity, where Johnaou and his family thenresided. On Nov. 30th, 1883, Mrs.Johnson committed suicide. Alter herdeath rumors were circulated to theeffect that the cruelty of her husbandwas the Inspiring cause of taking herlife,aud Johnson, to exculpate himself,gave to the public a number of letterswritten by Mrs. Johnson to her hus-band, in one of which she admitted thatImproper relations hod existed betweenheiself and Henry. Theae letters werewritten In a atyle at ouce graphic andpowerful, and theirpublication attractedwide attention. Johnsuu is a well-known lawyer and political speaker, butfor some time past has held a post*tion in the Penalou Departmentofthe government, the duties of whiohrequired bia preaenue in Tennessee. Hethreatened, after the death of his wife,that he would kiltHenry.
Knoxviu.k, T*an Sept. 23.? A spe-cial from Greenville, 75 miles east ofKnoxviUa, says: Major Edwin Henrywas shot and instautly killed about 11o'clock this morning, by Captain K. J.Johnson, at Haysville, Greene county.Johnson left Greenville last night,armed with a double barrelled shotgun,In a buggy in company with a negro.They rode twelve milea into the couutryand spent the remainder of the night ina atabie. Learning that Henry was lv astore near by, Jobnaon rushed out, tookHenry by surprise and abot himtwice.The first shot took effect in the bodyand the second iv the temple, kiltingHenry Instantly, Officers who hadstarted in pursuit ef Jobnsen met himreturning. He had already surrenderedto a local officer. Capt. Johnson badbeen in pursuit of Major Henry for sev-eral weeks, but the latter had been hid-ing in the mountains. Johnson sworethat he would killHenry on sight, butHenry eluded him till to-day. CaptainJohnson held the office of United StateaClaims Commissioner, and he aud hiswife boarded at tbe same hotel in Green-villewhere Henry also boarded. Henrywas about 50 years old and bad a wifeand children in New York.
HiHI BK IN OHIO.
He Thinks Blalae'a Defeat aPahlle Beeeeelty.
ft II Sept. 23 ?Carl Sohurzspoke to-night in the People's Theatreon tbe issues of the campaign. He spokeinGerman Schurz said to-day, in aninterview: "Iexpect to make a verythorough tour of Ohio, makiug apeecheain every section of thaState. The cam-paign is growing more spirited and tbeattendance at public meetinga ia verylarge. Thia shows that the people arearoused and are thinking, andI am iv great hopes thattheir better judgment will prevail.No; I am not making the temperancequestion a prominent feature of myapeechea to tbe Germans, but merelypress nt ingthe attitude of two csndidsteaon that question. I think the Germanswill be largely iufluenced in tneir votesby the question of the official Integrityof the candidates. The German peoplebave very fixed views infavor of honesty,
aud cannot be deceived by explanationsor excuses. If tbe election was held to-day Wiseonsiu, Illinois snd Miohigaawould rote for Cleveland. Seventy peroeut of the Illinois Germans would votsfar him. I think the defeat of Blame apublic necessity- For that reaaon Ithink every man whodesires an honestnational administration should vote forNewman for Secretary of State. TheOhio vote in October will be taken ss adeclaration of tbe sentiment of the Stateon national issues, by other sections ofthe country. If Newman ahould beelected in October it wotild practicallysettle the contest, as I think Wi cousin,Illinoisand Michigan would then oasttheir electoral votes against Biaiue."
Mr. Schurz was aaked if he had seenthe statement that he is receiving $250 aspeech from the Democratic managers."Yes," waa his reply. "I hays noticedthat such a story is being circulated.Thefacts are that 1 am not receivingone oent from any eource for my speech-ea in thia oontest aud that I am payingall my awn traveling expenses."
BLAIBBIXPHILADELPHIA.
Ma laKxteaalvely (slabbered Overby the Inlon Leaajae,
Philadelphia, Sept. 23.?At about 3A. m. Blame and party returned from sdrive to the park. After luncheonBlsine proceeded to the Union Leagueclub bonae for *? public reception. Thistook place in the large assembly roam.
Blame waa attended hy a committee ofthirty of the young members of theLeague inevening dreas. Thousands ofpeople streamed through the room untilnaif past 4, when the reception termi-nated and Blame drove back to the Con-tinental Hotel for dinner. While theparty was -till at dinner, Senator DonCameron came to bid Blame good bye.As soon as it was known in the hotolthat Blame had returned from the UnionLeague, guests began to gatherin groupeaia the corridor leading to hia room,and just ss dinner ended some Udiescashed open the door far enough to seethe distinguished gusat and asndidats,and stood gszing at him. When Blame'sattention was called to them he turnedfrom tho gentlemen with whom he wastalking and shook bands withtbe lubes.
Atabout 7:30, Blame, protected on oneside by Klkins.ond on the other by Presi-dent Baker, of theLeague, made his waythrough ths uaual crowd to hia csrriageanal was driven to the private entranceof the Club House, where again the po-lice hod to hold the people incheckwhile he made his way into the build-ing. Tho Club House was relslivelymove crowded than the atreet and BlameWas again compelled to uudergo a handshaking ordeal. Ata few minutes pasteight Mr. Sanson, the first President ofthe League, requested all but Blame andhis party to withdraw from the room,which waa becoming very close.Tbis request was complied withslowly and while the gentlemenin tbe room were leaving there wereothers begging to be allowed "a wordwithBlame," bnt Benson was oompelledto be inexorable. Blame was thenescorted to a platform erected In frontof the building where he reviewed aparade led by General Hartranft asChief Marshal. The procession passedthe stand and was enthusiastically ap-
Elanded. From the Union League clubouse one could see about a mile and a
half down tbe broad atreet. The pro-oeeslon filled the whole of this spaceand daring the whole time Biaiue re-mained on the stand tbe torches appear*Ing in the distance were like a solid massof moving tire and oould be seen filinginto tha broad street at the tower end,AH tbs clubs wore neat uniformsand moved In military order andthe marching of each club was admire*bio. As ths procession passed the stand it
J;ave three cheers for James G. Blame oror "Jsme* O. Blame, our next Presi-
dent," and Mr. Blame In each instanceremoved his hat and bowed. The YouogRepublican Club af Philadelphia, a bodyof unite young gentlemen, were espe-cially demonstrative. Tbey cheered facollege boy style as tbey passed, aodwars in turn loudly cheered by the
orowds. The Mayor of the oity expressedthe opiuion that there were morsthan .10,000 men marching, and hebelieved that half of the populationof were out looking atthem. 11 was understood that there wasto be no speaking, ao no demand waamade fur a speech. At 9:15, while theprocession was still iv full force, Blamebowed repeatedly aud left the atand.Upuu entering tbe club house he tooksome refreshments, after which hepassed out amid the moat euthuaiaatlocheeriog. He entered a carriage andwaa driven rapidly to the depot and left
for Now Yorkat 9:33 on a apecial train.

Neweouiu. Buchanan a('o. Kuancially Wrecked.
Loumvilli,Ky., Bept. 23.?The de-velopmeuts thia afternoon iv the assign*mental Newoomb, Buchanan A Companywere of a sonsational nature. Hereto-fore ibe assignments of the company wereconsidered as formal petitions for an ex-tension of time in which to take up theirpaper. This time the assignment wasmade general, snd Mr. Geo. W. Norrlswas namsd as assignee to make a nasidisposition of ail tbe property of thepartners for the benefit oi theircreditors.Very Rtlte sensation was occasioned, thepredominant feeling being one of regretthat the firm had gone under. GeorgeC. and Andrew Buchanan left the oity onSunday, leasing no olue to their where-abouts. It was then that the suspicionof crookedness was first aroused, and ru-mors were set afloat. The tumorsto-day say that the firm hasmade an improper use of moneysent tbem by customers topay taxes onwhisky which they sold. Another Isthat they have hypothecated receiptsfor whisky out of bond which did notrepresent tbe goods described upon theface of these receipts. The rumors firattook a .augible form this afternoon whenMr. George W. Noma, the assignee ofthe company, resigned aud turned theentire affairs over lo tbe Fidelity TrustCompany. Tbe cause of this step, itIssaid, on the part of Mr. Norris, was thefinding of the affairs in such a oompli-etted condition as to oauae greattrouble in straightening them out.It is aaid that the affairs ofths linn are in a much worse condi-tion than the most despondent creditorsever supposed The holders of receiptsimmediately rushed to the collector'soffice to see if duplicate had been madeaud it is positively stated, but not bythe Internal Revenue department, that$10,000 bonded warehoese receipts havebeen discovered which have been dupli-cated. Agenilkinau who has had inti-mate business aud personal relationswith both members of tbe firm und is ina position to know positively what heasserts to be true, said to an AssociatedPress reporter: "Yon may safely saythat the indications are that George audAndrew have joined Payne, Viley andEuo and tbe rest of them in Cauads.The tbory of suicide will not do,for surely both partners did not Incomeinsane at the same momeat.

At that time the liabilitieswere $1,630,000, and included ia theassignment about 1500,000 of personalproperty which was exempt from cred-itors. Anextension was granted until1882. Tbe company was successful initaoperations and discharged about one-
fifth of tbe liabilities when anotherassignment was made. This time thedebts of the firm aggregate 91,000,000,wilha total value of assets of $330,000.
POLITICAL AMHKMSMKVTN.
Aa Kxprenelen From a Member efthe CivilNervier CosslmKi
Washington, Sept. 23.?ProfessorGregory, of the Civil Service Commis-sion, has written a long letter upon thesubject of political assessments. Thechief points are contained in the follow-ing extracts: The grand interest ofthose sections of tbe Civil Service actwhich relate to contributing for politicalpurposes were two fold. First, to pre-vent the nee of government places andgovernment funds as forces tocontrolelections. Second, to protect govern-ment employes from compulsory contri-butions to political funds. A clerk isemployed to work for the people and notfor a party, and hie pay oomee from thepeople and not from hia party.What he earns is, therefore, hitown and tt ia gross tyranny to extortfrom him any part of his earnings byathreat of removal or by a promise ofpromotion. The clerk, outside of hisclerkship, is stilt a citizen and aa a citi-zen haa the common interest of sll goodcitizens tn the progress and welfare ofhis country, and the common right tovote and express opinions, to form asso-ciations with those of like opinion andto use his money in all lawful ways topropagate his opinions, butas an officeror employe of the government he isstrictly under the authority of Congressivsll his official work and relation andmust not violate any of the fourprohibitions of the Civil ServiceAct, bnt outside of his officiallife aud relations, beyond the realmof his duties lo the government and be-yond his connection with governmentpeople and places, be becomes a simplecitizen and has all the duties, intercutsand rights of his fellow citizens not inpublic employ. The Interpretation oftbe civil service law Is easy and thepath of duty required by it ia plain toall' who honestly regard as Its grandaims tbe abeotute defenss of the ballotbox from all corrupt or corrupting offi-cial influence and the protection of gov-ernment officials from political assessments, for these two great public de-mands of the law must and willbe fully
and fairly enforced.

]Bpecial to the Herald byAxnociated Press]Demvcb, Col., Sept. 23.?Yesterday
morning the Cashier of the First Nation,al Bank of Las Vegas, New Mexico, be-came convinced that robbers were tun*nelllng from thead joiningbuilding to thevault of the bank, and guards were im-mediately placed In and around thebank. Those iuaide observed the masonryvault gradually sinking. The robbersbeneath worked on, ignorant of theirdanger. At one o'clock a Mexioan vol-unteered to go down into the cellar andinvestigate. He had taken a few stepson the stairs when be saw some one corn-ing up. The Mexican fired without aword and Ihe man fell dead. The bodywas brought out The watchmen begantearing up the floor of the bank and theadjoinlur building with the evident in-tention of shooting the robbers on Bight.The work is alow, tbe men fearing to gethirange of those below, who at timesare seen rushing from oue shadow toanother. Up to thia time nothing morethan a hide and seek game has beon done.The dead robber was recognized as oneof the masons who built ths vault. Theexcitement is intense.
James Searson, tbe dead rob-ber, was welt known and respect-ed and leaves considerable prop-erty. He died before divulginghia confederates A close inspection ofthe tunnel this evening hy the policefailed to find the other robbers. Thesupposition is that they were outside.The officers claim to have possession ofaolue and hope to apprehend the re-mainder of the gang. A trip throughthe tunnel showa long and patient workon the part of the robbers, the tunnelbeing sixtyfeet in length and construct-ed on actentific principles; containingprovisions, water and a full outfit ofmining tools.

The official count of the number ofschool children in Santa Anaand Pomo-na, wherein tbe former was beaten bytbe Utter, eight to seven, must have
acted aa a first class opiate upon itsfighting proclivitiea; but it haa spokenagain, and the burden of the speech isthat that town will poll more votes thanPomona. We sincerely hope SanU Anawill poll 500 votes as tbe Herald of thatplace claims it will. Of one thing waare sure, if Santa Asa hod enjoyed amoiety of the prosperity aud settlementthat Pomona has enjoyed, and is nowenjoying", she would be able to poll 2500votes without an effort. But we do notbelieve it willpoll 500 votes. Itonlyvoted 456 two years ago, since whichtime that voting precinct has beenlargely curtailed and is left now with a
?redact only about four by six miles,o our knowledge, no one has ever
claimed that Pomona would at the com-ing election out-vote SanU Ana. Weexpect here to poll between four andfive hundred votes, but there are at leasttwo hundred new-comers, actual settlersof voting age who cannot vote on ac-count of not having resided one year inthe State.

Mrs. Edison.
Mrs. Mary Stlllwell Kdisou, wife ofthe inventor, Thomas Alva Edison, diedsuddenly at 2a. m. yesterday at her lateresidence at Menlo Park, N. J. Shewas 29 years of oge and leaves threechildren. The story of her marrisge toMr. Edison is a aisgularly atrauge andromantic one. When he firat formedher acquaintance he was about 25 yearsof age. He had juat uiveuted thechemical telegraph, by means of whichoould be transmitted, he claimed, on aeiugle wire, 3,000 words a minute. Thetelegraph, notwithstanding thia, how-ever, became euhservieut tv the Morsesyatem. While working on tbe chem-ical telegraph heemployed several youngwomen to puuch the hotea in the paper.Among them was Mies Mary Stillwell.One day he was ataudlng behind herchair examining a telegraphic instru-ment.
"Mr. Edison," remarked Miss Still-well, suddenly turning arouud, "I canalways tell wheu you are bchiud me ornear me."
'.How do you account for that?" me-chanically asked Mr. Edison, still ab-sorbed inhia work,
"I don't know, lam sure," ahe quietlyanswered; "but 1 seem tofeel when youare near me."
"Miaa Stillwell,"aaid Mr. Kdiaon.turn*lag round now in his turn and lookinghis interlocutor in tha face, "I've beenthinking considerably of you of late, andifyou are willingtohave me, I'd like tomarry you."
"You astonish me!" exoUhned MissStillwell. "I?l never?".
"I know you never thought I wouldbe your wooer," iuterrupUd Mr. Ediaon,"but think over my proposal, Miss Still-well,aud talk itover withyour mother."Then he added, in the same off-hand,business-like way, as though he mightbe experimenting upon a uew mode ofcourtship: "Let me know as early aspossible, aa if you consent to marry tne,
aud your mother ia willing, we can bemarried by next Taeaday."
This was the extent of Mr. Edison'scourtship. It ia hardly ueoeesary toaddthat the highly-favored ladr laid the ab-rupt proposal before ber mother.
"Ma has consented," aha tjldMr. Edi-son the next day.
"That's all right," said Mr. Kdiaoa iareply. "We wilt be married a weekfrom to-day."
And so itwaa. The two were marriedina week and a day from the beginningof Mr. Ediaou'a novel and preciptUtecourtship.
