render, but he rushed at the officer who
empted both barrels in his body, killing
him instantly, On striking q light The
body was found TO be that Of Gossols.

The Committee on Ways and Mean,

Coughlan, and collections made, through

MED all knowledge Of any connection
with the matter with any member Of
Congress or any Treasury Official.
Gen. Butler came before the COMMITTEES
and complained that Witnesses had been
examined 10 reference 10 his private at
tatrs, and that he had not been notified to
be present 10 hear the testimony. He
deemed 1t proper to cross-examine the
witnesses. He had much experience in
the committees, and 1t had been his uni
form practice whenever a witness made
q statement involving any. member of
either House to suspend the examination
and TO send for the member. He simply
asked for that measure Of courtesy to
himself.
The Chairman, Dawes, replied that the
illusions to Buffers name in the testimo-
ny had been incidental, and that when
witnesses were asked questions the Com.
mtttee could not know In advance that
their answer would refer to a member oil
Congress.
After a long colloquy, Beck informed
Butler that the examination Of Sanborn
would continue tomorrow, and It was
very probable that some inquiries might
be directed into the business and opera
ttons Of sanborn during the war, when
he held some commission under Butler,
who was then in command at Fortress
Monroe.
Mr.. Butler said he could not be present
tomorrow and the only government posi-.
tion held by Sanborn was that Of Provost
Messenger to keep order on the boats
running between Baltimore and Fortress
Monroe. =
Solicitor Bsnaeld made an additional
statement to the committee defining his
official acts in the matter Of the Sanborn
contracts, against the reflections on him,
which he supposed were made by Secre-
tary Richardson and Assistant Secretary
Sawyer.

but the women wisely concluded that II
wac right 70 obey the Mayors proclama-

church at prayers. Ia the afternoon some
gentlemen met and II ls said concluded

tlon Of liquor dealers. Il is asserted that
the women have witnesses enough 10

dealers, however, will be apt to have
their csseS carried before the Probate
Judge, where they fancy they will fare
best. II Is understood that David A.
Hank, one oi our ablest lawyers, has been
employed Tor the prosecution. ri
PTrTsBuRaH, April S.-The crusade
against the liquor dealers Of this city was
fully inaugurated to-day by the main
body ot the Women's Temperance Union.
A company OF twenty. Eve ladies, headed
by Rev. Mrs. Collins, President, visited
several OF the hotels and leading drinking
saloons, and with but one or two, excep-
tions were courteously received and al
lowed TO conduct singing and prayer in
the saloons. Great excitement was caused
by their proceedings and large crowds
followed them, in many instances thou
sands blocking the streets. They were
unsuccessful, however, in obtaining sig-
natures to the pledge, the proprietors re-
spectiully but firmly refusing to sign.
Several Of the auxiliary societies have
been visiting the saloons In Allegheny
City and in the South Side during the
past lew days, but so far have met with
but little success. Ii is expected the cru
sade will be continued tomorrow with q

A Union Temperance meeting, com.
posed Of delegates from Methodist, Pres
byterian, Baptist, and other Evangelical
churches, was held yesterday In ASsocia
tion Hall, and Ladies' Temperance
Union formed.
The vslue Of the lost steamship
Europe was about 81 $50, 600, and she was
insured in French insurance company
for about tWo-thirds Of her full value.
Her cargo was a very valuable one, con-
ststing chiefly Of silks, wines and aardines.
Her agents think she probably carried q
large quantity ol extra fine goods for the
spring trade, and that the value of her
cargo could not have been less than
81, 100000. The greater portion Of these
goods was probably insured, but their ex.
act value cannot be. ascertained until the
arrival OF her manifest. The Greece,
with the rescued passengers, is expected
TO arrive either tonight or Tomorrow,
and all that is now doubtful concerning
the disaster will be solved then.

The Western Rail Mil Association met
IN this city to-day. Representatives were
present from nine points. The Associa.
Lion comprises all the rail mills west oil
Pittsburgh, about thirty In number. As
no action would be conclusive without q
vote Of the majority oil the Association,
1t was decided TO adjourn without trans.
acting any formal business, to meet
In Chicago in June. All the mills
represented in the meeting to-day are
idle, and without orders, and reports
nom various sources show that nearly
tho entire set of mills In the Association
are without business. Parties with thirty
five years experience In the iron trade re.
ported that they had never known such
stagnation in the manufacture Of rails.
ltWas also stated at the meeting that the
receipts OF the western railroads during
the past month have fallen of more than
twenty-five per cent below those Of the
corresponding month last year, and as q
consequence the companies are or
dering very few rails for any purpose.

for. think he will win the race.
A NAG BY THE NAME OF TlPPETT.
It is hard to decide "at this stage Of the
game" which horse will win, out Of the
large number entered. Understand that
a horse has been entered recently, whose
pedigree shows him TO be a Maryland
pennyroyal scrub, In fact some think that
the stock has been at one time crossed
with the asa, but I am not sure that this
is true, His name is "Wash" Tlppett, and
he Is full Of "metal" and remarkable for
bottom. He wants to run before the time
and his groomsman has much trouble In
training him down. 1t Is thought that
"Wash" will make good time "on the
home stretch" although his former races
have all been confined to q thirty second
Of mile race. He, however, may deceive
his looks, and may surprise many, as he
has now strange feed and groomsman,
and Is on a aaelo turf. SwRLL.
