Eu.Klux Committee - witnesses
Ordered 90 Remain at Home.
WASHINGTON, August 2.-Refore the
Ku-Klnx Committee went away yester-
day, Mr.. French, Sergeantat-Arms, was
instructed to telegraph to all witnesses
who had been summoned, and who had
not to his knowledge left their homes
to come here, that their presence was
not wanted at present. This was done
in pursuance Of the desire of a majority
Of the committee to have the taking OF
the evidence closed as soon as possible.
Gen. Blair is understood TO have re-
marked that this action is likely to pre-
vent the attendance of the witnesses
called by him to come here, as they
will see notice of what has been done
in the papers and return. They have
not been oyer-anxious to appear, and
would seize any possible chance to es-
cape altogether Mr. Poole and Mr.
Blair both desire to have the investiga'
ton 90 on, but as they have not authority
to summon witnesses the end is at hand
till September.

1EeALrzED SLAUGHTER.

The ferryboat disaster at New Yorl
was as fatal as the great riot. Seventy
FIVE are known to have been killed, anC
one hundred and fifty wounded. The
owner or owners of that boat probably
knew the boiler was defective. They
should be hanged for murder. A vessel
that carries daily thousands of people
should be absolutely safe in oil its de-
partments. To place the lives OF people
at the mercy of an old patched boiler is
an atrocity unsurpassed And so with
railroads and all mesns of transporta-
ton that take the money of the people
in consideration Of carrying them safely.
One of these days, when Wholesale waste
of human life becomes little more fre-
ouent a storm viii come and sweep
hundreds Of careless common carriers
from the earth. The Legislature does
not charter a railroad or steamboat
company to kill people. When the man
ayers do so, they should be dealt with as
other criminals. Steamboat and railroad
disasters, such as we have in America,
are unknown in Engldnd and on the
Continent of Europe. There, transpcr-
tation companies have q wholesome
dread of the law, for it will not allow
them TO escape its vengeance if they
break its provisions. There, machinery
must be as perfect as human skill can
make it. There, no rotten bridges are
allowed to stand until they fall of their
own rottenness. The waste of human
life in this country is enormous. Yet
in our hurry for the everlasting and
eternal dollar, we scarcely pause in our
fight until plunged through some rickety
structure called a bridge, or are blown
into the air by an iron tube miscalled a
boiler. The people are becoming accus-
toned to horrors. As the population OF
Rome hocked to the Coliseum to witness
the dying struggles of the gladiators, so
tens Of thousands Of eur American popu-
lation would desire no better sport than
to stand on the banks Of a stream and wit
ness a train of cars crowded with people
plunged through bridge to the bottom
Of watery hell. The governments that
have control Of great thoroughfares OF
travel are either inefficient or do not
care at all about accidents. Really, the
disasters that are depopulating the coun-
try are not accidents at all. 1t is no ae-
eident that rotten bridge breaks down
or a rotten old boiler explodes. 1t is
one of the physical laws thst they shall
do So If those who run trains and
steamboats, are ignorant of this law, lei
them be sent to a school of justice.

the POISONING Of Panenbereer.

CoLUMBUs, ONO, August 1.-The facts
in the case Of the Paffenberger poison
ing remain beyond doubt as previously
stated, notwithstanding the Associated
Press dispatch from New York last
night pronouncing it fabrication. The
stomach was analysed and quantities Of
arsenic found; also, traces Of poison in
the liver. Evidence is strong, throwing
suspicion on the wife of Paffenberger,
who subsequent to the death Of Paffen-
berger married Colburn, then cattle
market reporter for the New York Tri
bune, and now banker in Nassau street
New York.

| Of the Sunday Disaster.
The f EaseHn shot by a Gambler. !,
INV YoRK August 1.-The extent OF
the great odisaster on Sunday is begin
ming to be apparent. The list of the
victims fatally hurt and those already
dead Is now swelled to eighty-four, with
every prospect of its reaching one hum
dred. Bellyue Hospital contains twenty
six, with whom life and death hangs
evenly balanced. Four or five persons
are still missing The Coroner will to-
day swear in jury and enter upon the
work of investigation, with the view to
determine the responsibility Of this
frightful affair. The Government is also
disposed to hold somebody account
able, and has directed the Board
Of Steamboat Inspectors to institute
rigid investigation. Messrs. Belknap
and Lowe, the Government officers, are
busily making arrangements for q
thorough investigation of the causes
which led to the explosion. They are
determined to make a full and search
ing inquiry and to elicit such facts as
will disclose where the neglect existed.
For this purpose numerous witnesses
have been summoned to testify, and the
probability is that the investigation will
begin to-day before the Commissioners.
About three o clock this morning Joe
Coburn, the pugilist, and man named
George McCloud became engaged in Q
quarrel in saloon in the Bowery, when
MeCloud drew revolver and pointed it
at Coburn. Coburn jumped for him and
grasped the revolver, when a lively tussle
ensued, during which the revolver went
of, the ball striking Coburn on the tenn
pie but inficting only slight scalp
wound. A man named John Clark was
less fortunate, as he was struck in the
left thigh while passing the saloon. Co
burn and McCloud were both arrested.

A BAD MAN.

Senator Morton, Of Indiana, has been
figuring in a speech at Louisville for the
benefit of the Radicals Of Kentucky. In
allusion to this able demagogue the Gin
cinnati Enquirer remarks that :" he is,
morally, one Of the worst men this ma
ton has produced There is really moth
ing that goes to justify or mitigate the
supreme rottenness Of the Indiana Sen
ator. Of at distance, where he is not
known, he might establish some reputa-
ton for general purity, but it cannot be
done here, in the immediate vicinity Of
his residence. For his violations of the
laws of the decalogue he has not escaped
a severe punishment, and, looking hale,
hearty and vigorous, he has been prema-
turely physically blighted and ruined. We
do not deny that he is a man Of consid-
cradle talent, but his want Of principle
is his great distinguishment. During
the war, when everything was violent,
and when he had great and supreme
power, he exercised an influence upon
the political destiniss of the country
that was unhappy in the extreme, but al
time recedes and we reach the norma
condition. he is finding his level as I
politician, and is not only appreciated
but his character as a man is discussed
after fashion that was not possible
few years ago. Like Simon Cameron
he is the particular friend and apologies
of General Grant, and there is a fra
GRANGE in the association Of names
which has not escaped general atten
ton"
