A Sensation SpOiIed,

The New York Times says:-We found some
time ago, In the New Orleans Times an heroic,
pathetic, and tragic tale OF q young. beautiful,
and wealthy Cuoan damsel (Senorita Aldama),
who, while waving the American flag from her
fathers bex in q Havana theatre. was shot
dead by q bloodthirsty SpaDiard, VINO In turn
had his head instantly shot off by a brave Anne
rican who happened to be standing near the
Senorita when the Spanish bullet pierced her
heart. II was one OF the finest and most dra.
matte stories We have read for long time;
and as the name of the proud and patriotic
Havana family TO which the young lady be-
longed is known to great numbers of Ameri-

rable feeling in this country. Our Havana COR
respondent, however, has taken the trouble to
write us a note on the subject, and Ia behalf Of
the truth of history" where the SsnoriLa will
doubtless figure, we feel compelled to take her
down from the heroic elevation. "Quasimodo"
says that, on the night OF the Havana riot, when
the affair was alleged to have taken place, the
SenOrita was not In her fathers box at the the-
aiTe; that her father has no box at the theatre;
that there are no boxes in the theatre where
the riot occurred; that the SenOrita was not in
Havana the night of the riot; that no woman
was shot at the aforesaid theatre nor was any
Spaniard shot by any American for shooting
any woman. "Quasimodo" adds some 9th 70 {

npseitipg of the romance over which We wept a
few days ago.

Another Nail in Curtin's Coz.
Denials by Judges Williams
and Agnew.

Following close upon the despatch from
Governor Geary denying that he has written
any letter to influence General Grant in the
selection Of his Cabinet, as alleged by Colonel
Mcclure, we are authorized to state that neither
Judge Williams nor Judge Agnew has written
the letters fastened upon them by the same
authority.
Both of them, and Judge Read as well, were
az piled to several days ago by influential
friends of Governor Curtin to commit them
selves in this manner to his support. At
repeated interviews they were urged to take
this action. Judge Read yielded to the pressure,
and wrote letter urging upon General Grant
the appointment of Curtin TO Cabinet position.
But both the other judges declined to accede
to the request from first to last not deeming it
consistent with their positions on the bench.
In conversation Judge Williams said emphat-
caIy:-

Special Desp0toh TO The Evening Telegraph
WAsHIN GToN, Feb. 27.-In the majority report
of the committee investigating these alleged
trauos, the following conclusion is reached:-
AFTER the most critical examination of the
testimony the committee have been able to
make, they md no evidence whatever to sustain
tue charge OF fraud or collision in either of the
purchases at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. For
aUgbt that has appeared in the course of this
inv estIg alton, the purchases we're fairly and
honestly made, but not with that accurate care
which should be used by Government officers;
and, although the committee do not hesita'e to
say that no such large expenditure should be
made upon the Judgment OF any bureau officer,
yet that was matter Tor which neither Zeller
nor the parties of whom he purchased should
be held accountable"
The minority report, signed by M3ssrs,
Kelley. Stevens and Ferry, presented with the
majority report last evening, ends as folio WIS.,
1.-The undersigned, believing that the future
welfare of the service requires that official con-
demDation shall follow reckless disregard aliks
OF the proprieties of business and proper con.

ment, recommend that measures be taken to

The skiff in which the five persons left Nor
gantown for Generava on Friday night, tor the
purpose of meeting the boat at that point,
has been found floating in the river, bottom
upwards. There are all sorts of rumors adoat
Foul play is suspected by many, but the most
probable solution OF the sad affair is that some
accident was met with, which caused the up
setting of the skitf, the swift current and dau-
gerous nature OF the river between these two
points making the escape of any of the party
highly difficult There is no doubt bat all were
drowned, as more than sufficient time has
elapsed for the discovery of the parties, If any
were saved.
