of Congress to count the vote, and
declare Tilden elected.

neighbors supposed he had gono to
a watering place in search of work.
On Saturday evening Mrs. Geistlach
and her two children were found
dead in the house, from the effects
of chloroform. A note was found
from the mother, bidding goodbye
to all, and intimating that she de-
signed killing herself and the chill

not write, it is supposed that it was
written by her son Charlie, aged
eleven years, at her dictation. The
note was found in hisIspelling-book.
AS the rear part of the house was
left open there is some suspicion
that the husband committed the
murders and then left to commit
the threatened suicide.
