The whereabouts OF Ex.CnnsIrss-
man Vance.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 10TH
1t will be remembe red that some
days ago the overland dispatches
stated that telegram had been re-
ceived by the wife of Congressman
Vance, of Ohio, to the effect that
he was at the Lick House, in this
city. The Lick House managers
then stated that he was not there
and the matter was dropped as a
baseless rumor. 1t is now, howev-
er, certain that Vance is either in
this city or suburbs. A prominent
of this city has received
a letter from Vance's home, CALI
polls, Ohio, enclosing the following
dated San Francisco 9th
inst, and addressed to Mrs. Vance:
"Your husband is here, insane,
bat harmless. Have you instruc
tions" (Signed) w. II. LAMB.
The letter requested the mer-
chant to inquire into the matter.
A reporter of the Bulletin to.
day learned at the Lick House
that Vance was not stopping there,
but that letters and kilograms
were addressed to him at the house,
care of w. H. Lamb, who called
there for them. Lamb is unknown
to the people at the house, and is
10 be stranger in the
city.
