ANoted Kentucky Will Case Decided

hOulSNlLLE, APiiI u
The famous Newcomb will case was de-
cided Friday by Chancellor Bruce. New
comb was president of the Louisville,
Nashville & Great Southern railway. His
wife became insane, and was placed in an
asylum. The Legislature OF 1872 passed
an act making incurabla insanity, accom-
panied by hereditary faint, ground for
divorce. Under this act Newcomb Oh
taibed divorce, married again, and had
two children by the second wife. In 1874
Newcomb died, disposing of bis property
by will. At this junc'ure, The friends of
his first wife Instituted suit, claiming her
property rights to the estate on the ground
that she had never been legally divorced.
The case has been in court more than
year, and yesterday decision holding the
divorce to be absolutely void, and decree
ing to the first wife, Mrs. Corpelia W.
Newcomb, her property rights as the law
full widow of II. d. Newcomb, was rend-
cred. The result Of the decision is to
give the first Mrs. Newcomb one-tbird of
her late husbands personal property, and
dover in the lands. The magnitude of the
estate, which exceeds 81 800, 600, and the
prominence of the persons involved in the
litigation, have given it unusual interest
The will devses S400 coo 10 the children
of the second marriage and to their mother,
all of whom are now living. The decision
does not affect these provisions or inval-
date the will. An express Kentucky
statute removes all question of the legili-
macy of the children of the second mar
riage, and relieves them from any such
limitation

The Safe Burglary Invest cation.

WHAT BABcooK DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT IT.
WASHINGTON, April o.
Babcock appeared yesterday before the
house judiciary committee in relation to
the safe burglary case, to answer charges
made by Whitley, ex-cbief of the secret
service. lie testified that in the spring of
1874 Solicitor Ban1eld, at Whitley's re-
quest, asked him TO cndeavOr to prevent
his discharge from the secret service. Witt
ness saw the president and the secretary Of
the treasury, and finding no desire on their
part to remove him, requested BaDfeld to
telegraph Whitley to come and see him.
Whitley called on witness and expressed
gratitude for the favor rendered. Some
time after, when personal attack had
been made upon him regarding the meas-
urement of government improvements,
Babcock employed Whitley to find out his
assailants, telling him to report to MIR.
Gideon, now deceased, but the latter never
informed HIM that any report had ever
been made. Witness denied any knowl-
edge that the safe burglary was medltated /;
should have taken measures to prevent 1t.
The committee produced letter from Bah
cock to Whitley, without date and written
in pencil IN which Babcock said Whitley's
letter had been received he had attended
to the matter at once, and before this letter
reached Whitley he and his men would he
paid as "they" said they would send at
once 10 them. Bebc1ck concluded the
letter by saying something like the follow
ing "You can wait with confidence, that
10 the end your services will be fully ap-
preciated."
Babcock explained the letter by say
ing that Whitley wrote to him that he
and his men had been turned out Of office
and badly treated. and had not received
their arrearages of pay, and asking him to
interest himself in their behalf. BabcoclS
went TO the treasury and saw solicitor Ban
field, who said that whatever money was
due to these men should be paid The
word "they" in the letter meant the trea-
sury officers He did not know whether
the men had been paid or not, and stated
that there had been no money transactions
between him and Whitley

HORRIBLE ATROCITIES.

The Political correspondence (newspaper)
| publishes from reliable sources some ex-
traordnary details of atrocities committed
| by the bosnian insurgents upon Moham-
medan and christian inhabitants for refus-
| ing to take part in the instruction. 1t is
alleged that several villages in Chleona
have been destroyed by fire, and that two
gendarmes and Turkish hotel keeper and
his wife and four children were burnt alive.
1t also stated that christian who persist
emily refused to obey the injunctions of
the insurgents was massacred with his
whole family. After enumeratiRg other
instances of atrocities the paper proceeds
to state that a party of insurgents made a
raid on the Krampa districts, setting fire to
200 houses in Pasntza, and killing more
than 200 innocent persons. Christians suf-
fer equally with Mahommedans.
LATER. Politicals correspondence
corrects the assertion that the negotiations
with the insurgent leaders have fallen
through. It says they are still being car
ried on and it is hoped they will finally
lead to the desired result.
