ton special to the st. Louis Republican:
Senators Edmunds, Conkling and Morton,
IN ohJecting to an investigating committee,
are striving to suppress some rich facts that
have since leaked from the New York Gus
tomhouse. One Of the partners in our Gus
tomhouse general order business had been
living for three years with lady who was
supposed to be his wife, but recently, think
ing that his position might be strengthened
by real matrimonial alliance, he deter
mined to be married to another woman. To
this the quasi wife ojected. contending that
she was by the laws of New York his lawful
spouse, yet he married the other woman,
and thereupon the deserted lady. following
the example set by Miss Josephine Mans,
held in her war with Colonel James Fisk,
Jr, put into the hands of some of the an
tagonists Of this enormously profitable stor-
age and carriage business a mass of testi-
mony establishing all sorts ofawkwar.l facts
which can not now possibly be suppressed.
One OF these facts is that the profits of
the general order and carriage business
IN New York have been distributed in four
shares, of which two have been regu-
iarly paid over to General Horace Porter.
