It has been dearly demon
strated that local agents tor tbe press asso

by local prejudice to tend anything but
garbled and distorted reports of the com
mittee's work. The sub-ooinrolttee
charged with the Investigation of the Dan

doesn't gel tbo convention Ctloago will, he
ssys. Cincinnati was not talked of. He

suicide in the presence of bis wife, whose
efforts to prev nt the rasb deed provud

with the St. Louis llrldge oompauy for a

HKRNIA AND TNDIOaSTION.
"My husband has been for two yean
troubled with indigestion which oaused
him great annoyance. Ruoently he became
effected with hernia, and, as be was very
proud of bU physical strength, these tilings,
combined bad a very depressing effect upon
btm. He was under tbe cure of Dr.
Thomas O'Reilly, who gave him great re
lief and assured him be would pull through
all right, but my husband seemed to think
otherwise and often, of late, told me that
be intended to tako bis life. I have watched
blm closely on this aooouot. Some
nights before going to bed be
would kiss me, and tbe two
girls and the boys, and then I would stay
up all night watching him. Last night,
however, I had no misgivings. He had
goue out during the day and returned in
good spirits. During the evening he was
quite joyful aud this change In his
demeanor made us all happy. At 4 o'clock
this morning I woke up aud found Thomas
standing In the room fully dressed. I ask
ed blm what he had dressed for, and he
told ma that he bad got up to cover tbe
children and attend to the fire. He was a
very g od man in that way, but I felt that
there was some other reason for bis rising
and dressing ut thai early hour. I asked
blm to come back to bed, and be finally
consented ami undressed hlmtelf. He was
all ready to come back to bed when I saw
blm go to bis pantaloons and, take some
thing out of one of the pockets. I Jumped
from tbe bed and sddi 'What Is that,
Thomas?" In a moment I saw
THB FLAIH OF A BLADK
as bis hand was lifted towards his neck.
He moved quickly over to the bureau and
ttood opposite the mirror. I flung my
arms around his neck and clutohad at his
wrlsU. He was stronger than I, however,
and I saw hi n draw the blade of his raior
aoross bis throat. I grabbed for the weap
on and another struggle followed, In which
my right hand was severely out. He re
tained tbe razor and drew It again across
his throat. I tried again to get tbe raior
from him. His hold erew weaker, and at
his band relaxed and I gained possession of
it, be sank to tbe Boor, Um blood pouring
from his throat. I rusbed to tbe window
and gave tbe alarm. The neighbor opened
their windows aud looked out, but refused
to come to my atslstanoe. It was fully half
an hour before a doctor was brought, and
by tbat time my husband was breathing hit
last."

Niw York, Feb. 13. Tbe report was
circulated Monday tbat though Oen. Grant
bad nearly reoovered from the effect ef bis
recent Injuries, yet new and serious com
plications had been discovered that im
paired the ex-President's ohanoet of ulti

tbat bs father was much better, and tbat

The Bt. Louis PostolBee.
St. Louis, Feb. 13. Tbe whisky ring
and Silk Stocking outfit, Inoladlng tbe
creditors of Sam Hays of bar, ohurch and
state were represented at the White House
last week, aud left confident tbat they had
made a postmaster for St. Louis. Great
was their disappointment, as tbe Repub
lican this morning represent, to discover
tbat tbey bad not done to. Van Horn It
represented as running around the post
office department, frantic at the significant
overturning of the well-laid loheme.
Hitoboock's lengthy speech, as well as
Stanard's, District Attorney Bliss' and
Preacher Snyder's, goes for naught.
Houser, who lias given his support to both
Wells and Flsbbaok, and Is on both of
their papers to beat Fllley, wu advised by
Mrs. MoKee that his support of Flshbaok
or any one engaged in tbe support of tbe
prosecution of tbe whisky ring frauds
would not be tolerated.
Hon. Jas. H. MoLean was at tbo White
House on Thursday and on Saturday, and
as tbe postofflce Is in hit district, he can
probably give the Inside situation of the
postolBua mnddle better than any one else.
It Is pretty oertam that he does not propose
that Van Horn, or any other oitiien shall
interfere in his distrlot over his head. If
there hat been any one oourtety that the
President has himself made an Invariable
custom, it is that the Congressman ef the
district shall be consulted before
making appointments. There It no proba
bility of an appointment upon therecommen
datioo of Van Horn, Henderson,
Hitchcock, Bliss and others. Geo. Bain,
like the others, Is too much mixed np with
the Silk Stocking movement. Ha presided
at tbe first Silk Stocking meeting and by bit
unfair ruling created great dlssatltfaotlon.
Then he la too olosely allied to ths O-D
orowd, and altogether too bitter and pro
nounced an Antl-Fllley man to receive
soy consideration ia these days of Joint ae
tion and harmony. It may be considered
settled tbat neither Weill, Fishhook,
Rogers or Patrick will be appointed.
