furnish the committee every assistance and ac-
commodation possible to further the examina,
tlon.. For obvious reasons the business trans
acted in committee is for the present withheld.
Last evening, Mr.. Thomas M. Barlow, Select
Councilman from the First Ward, and member
of the committee, stated that the discussion of
last Thursday in Select Council had created an
impression that he was interested in contracts
with the Trust. Neither directly nor indirectly,
Mr.. Barlow stated had he been or is he con-
nected in any interest or contract with the
Trust. Another impression arising from the
discussion in the Chamber, he stated, was that
he was opposed to the examination. This he
also disclaimed. From the beginning he had
favored the investigation, and would heartily
cooperate with the Chairman in furthering the
examination

A CASE OF DEsRRTIoN.--Last evening a
man, apparently fifty years old, accompanied by
a woman about thirty, who had a child eighteen
months old With her, called at the Farmers
Union Hotel, and at the request of the man,
separate rooms were provided, to which they
repaired. Ten minutes afterwards the woman
went down stairs and said she was going out to
get something for the child. She left without
exciting any suspicion. and about the same time
the old man was seen to leave also. 1t was not
long before the child began to cry, and some of
the inma es Of the house went into the room to
see to It. They found a paper pinned to the
that the mother wife of Daniel s, Winters, and
deserted by him last November was going to
the bottom of the river if the weights in her
G dress were heavy enough TO carry her down.
