Especial Telegram to the Globe
MADISON, Wis, April 15.--Hon. J. G. Nc
Kinney, who prosecuted the Milwaukee
whisky crooks during the whisky raid, has
been quietly working up new points on the
old Middleton distillery, which was the first
distillery seized in the State. and, in fact, in
the West. BY the revised statutes of the
United States, owners of distilleries are held
personally liable for all fines assessed against
them, whether leased or not. Mr.. Mckinney

States district court, involving some ten to
forty thousand dollars, against the owner of
the Middleton distillery, being assessments

Some parties hereaboutB.
A queer case of an attempt to secure coun-
terfeit bills came to light in this city to-day.
8. Ozander, of Ashland, Wis, wrote to one
Finter, of st. Paul, Wishing the latter to
send o thousand dollars in queer for a hun
dred dollars in cash, intimating that Finter's
name had been given him as a dealer in the
stuff. Through blind penmanship in the
address, Mr.. Finley got the letter and an
swered that he wasn't in that
business, and advising the applicant
to keep quiet or he would get
himself in trouble. Ozander, however,
! thought this was blind and urged his
application, whereupon Finley placed the
matter in the hands of detective who ap-
pretended Ozander after correspondence
in which the latter more fully implicated
himself. Ozander was brought to this city
and will have an examination before Judge
BravlnV fO-rnOrrOw.

"Mr. Tilton's influence over his wife is
very great" this gentleman continued,
'.and she cannot resist it,
A gentleman living near Mrs. Morse and
Mrs. Tilton, and intimately acquainted with
the both, says: "The events Of the last few
months have led me to believe that arrange

Tilton and his wife have been completed.
He frequently sent q carriage to Mrs.
Morse's house for his sons, Meeting
them on Yates avenue two or
three blocks away, and after drive of sew
eral hours the boys would return alone. On
one occasion Mr.. Tilton drove back to the
house, but he did not alight. He has sent Mrs.
Tilton money on several occasions. Mrs. Tilton
went to Warwick, Notwithstanding Mrs.
Morse's denial, and the sons are my author

there for the summer, and that on Mr.. Til

Rev. Samuel B. Holiday, assistant pastor
of Plymouth church, said he was not The
least surprised at this development of the
scandal. He said some months
ago, when he heard that
Mr.. Tilton had gone to see his wife with
her consent, that now we might look for the
of the end. It is susceptible of
only one explanation, and one which natural
~ will be given to any act of such o
poor, crazy person, who is putty in
the hands of her husband, whenever he is
with her. Her course at the beginning at
least such as destroys her weight, is q wit
ness for either side, 1t proves that she is a
weak, insane woman. Her statement on
any subject is worthless, and that's all there
is about it.

Evening Session.

The House met this evening, Mr.. Covert
in the chair, for debate upon the tariff bill.
Mr.. McKenley, Ohio, opposed the bill from
high sense of duty, duty imposed by the
strong conviction he entertained after an exam
nation of it's several features, that should this
measure become law, it would be nothing
short of a public calamity. 1t might be of
temporary advantage to a very limited
number of people, but no one could
fail to discern that free trade, or tariff reform,
would produce still further business depression.
There was DO public necessity requiring it's
passage, no plethora of revenue justifying it.
Neither the producer nor consumer wanted it.,
but the almost universal sentiment of the
country was for defeat of the bill, without Con-
cession, compromise or amendment. The next
speeches in opposition to the bill were made by
Messrs. Bridges, Evans, Beacon and Brewer,
and then the House adjourned.

To be Married Uuder Duress.
Yesterday, Margaretha Beck, q woman of
the age of % years, and, according to her
story, entirely dependent upon her own
labor for her support, lodged complaint in
the municipal court against John HeckM, a
German employed in Bruggemann's brew
cry, wherein it appeared that Margaretha
had slowed not wisely, but too welr.'' The.
affair took nearly the whole day to arrange.
Hecktl pleaded guilty to the charge, but
wanted three weeks longer of bachelor life.
Neither of the parties could speak word of
English, and speculation was eager as to how
successfully and gracefully Judge Flint could
tie the wedding knot in Dutch. Finally,
Hecktl secured Mr.. Bruggemann, his en-
ployer, as his bondsman in the sum of $500
for his appearance at the next term of the
district court, before which time it is more
than likely that the now unready Hecktl
will be prepared to become Benedict.
