PHILADELPHIA July 81, 1873
Excitement ran high yesterday afternoon when
1t was announced that the committee appointed
to investigate the charge OF fraud in the O'Nel
ovens contested election case for the Assembly
would give in their decision. Knots of politicians
from almost every quarter of the city were scat
tered In and around independence Hall, all OF
whom eagerly discussed the subject and bolstered
up their tavorltes with words of encouragement
Ovens was early on the street and appeared conf
dent Of being sustained by the committee, but
their subsequent report dashed his hopes to the
ground and he departed Chagrined and with
tight In his eye. O'Neill, his adversary. "laid
his friends. who were watching and waiting for the
verdict with painful impotence At halfpast four
O'Clock the committee slowly filed down the stair
way leading from the club room, corner Broad and
Race streets, where they had held their meeting
and the result was instantly communicated to a
friends OF both parties, wi scattered the news
broadcast that ovens had been counted out and

tellieence fell like . tnunderbolt among the
adherents of ovens, who had received every

this respect, however, they were destined TO be
wofuly deceived, as at q secret caucus held yes.
terday morning ex-Speaker Elliott and others,
although frm friends OF ovens, decided that, To
allow him to run for the Assembly in the face OF
such glaring frauds as were proven to have been
committed at the primary election, would invite
pubic censure and do irreparable injury to the
general ticket at the Fall election. Here is the
committees report, and II 1t doesn't create o

Democracy rises from her ashes as proud as ever

turned to their warm wigwains disguised. Both
people and politicians will rest easy for few days,
as they have to the conclusion that there are
more sours than sweets In the Cocktail Conven-

Heenan's Last Hours.

The remains of John C. Heenan ar
rived in New York, Friday, New. 31st.
They were in charge of James Cusick,
his trainer in his fight with Sayers.
From Cusick was learned the partieu-
lars of Heenan's death. 1t appears
that, few days before his decease, Hee-
nan, while on his way west, felt so much
better that he went out shooting. The
effort was apparently too great, and he
rapidly grew worse-still, however,
passing on towards California, hoping
that the air would improve his condi-
tion. On the morning of his death,
while near Green River Station, on the
Pacific Railroad, Cusick asked him if
he would not take a cup of tea. Hee-
nan said "Yes,' and it was procured
for him. After swallowing it he was
seized with hemorrhage. Cusick gave
him some salt, and Heenan fell back in
his arms, as if to sleep. Shortly after
wards one Of the passengers said to Gu
sick, "He is not asleep; he is dead"
and on examination this proved to be
the fact. The body was placed in a
coffin at Ogden and arrived in New
Y ork on the Both ultimo, as above stated.
