Since the day following the nOminattsa
OF John Z. Loge for Postmaster OF Cir
cinnati, there nave been vague rums1s
Of charges Of some Kind against his bass-
ness character. 1t was knowR UsA
enough from whom these charges
came, but Just what shape they woala
take and what tools would be employed
could not be surmised. Mr. l. lge was
regarded by all his friends as one OF tho
most upright OF men, and no one pTR-
Vious to this had ever heard ToTa
against his good name.
These rumors assumed definite shAps
Yesterday by the announcement that
one Samuel Thorner had placed IN the
hauds Of the Postal COMMITTEE an atd-
davit, making serious charges assihst
Mr. Logc as Il business man. The BdS-
stance Of these charges were alleged To
be, that In 1851, when Mr.. Loge WAS ia
the dry-goods business at Lawreace-
burg, Indiana, he purchased goods nf
The Messrs. Heidelbach, SeasongoOd a.
Co., for which firm the affiant, ThorAeT.
was salesman; that Loge repeatedly re-
ported the packages Of goods sent ban
'short," and that the frm allowed
him for tho missing goods; That
this happened 80 frequently az to
arouse suspicion, and ndaily, the Goa
tents Of a package being carefully hoteds
when it was reported snort BY Mr.. L'xe.
an Investigation followed, and not 8nay
the missing piece OF goods found on hts
shelves, but several others which he baa
reported as missiug,and .or which he And
been duly allowed in his settlsments.
Mr.. Loge was called upon BY his
friends and by newspaper representa-
lives, to all of whom he, in a most un-
quallhed manner, proved the charges
false in every particular.
A STAR reporter was detailed TO LOOK
up the facts.
Mr.rhorner, the first gentleman caiiea q
upon, stated that the rum0r that he haG
forwarded an affidavit 10 Senator Ferry
making charges against MIR. LoSe Sas
utterly false.
| He stated that the firm OF Heidelbacb,
Seasongood h Company had met in IN
Informal way this morning 10 talk ovsr
the matter, and tnat tue firm can reeael
no dishonorable dealings OF any sGriUus
nature on the part OF MI. Loge oonntetcd
with their business.
MIR. Tnorner claims that there is note-
ing In the charges, aud that the WhSls
thing is a misrepresentation.

Commons yesterday afternoon Sir STAFF
ford Northcote,in reply to interrogatory
respecting the statement that the Queen
had personally interoeded with the
Czar in beoalf Of Turkey and pleaded
tue absence OF the usual notice for an
inquiry into the matter refused to

SOMETHING OF HITCH IN NEGOTIATIONS
LONDON, Jan. 22.--NegOtiatiDns for an
arnistice began yesterday, but no intor-
NATION as to what progress has been
made can be had. All reports from that
quarter are mere guesswork. The most
that oau be said Is tnat some unforeseen
delay in reaching nn agreement has oc-
CURED, either through lack Of authority
on the part OF the Turkish Plenipoten-
taries, or through the extreme severity
OF Lne huSSlIn Ielm', Nnlle hlsSla IL
accused OF q desire lor delay 10 enable
her armies 70 advance on Constantine
| pie.
Turkey 10 similarly charged witt
treAcAerou5 intentions to retard tht
Russian advance by diplomacy which is
not really Intended 10 produce peace
| 1t is now believed that nothing can pre-
vent general Russian advance on Con.
stantinople except absolute surrender
by the Turks OF every condition that
Russia may consider necessary. With
out taking the ultra a'armist view, ii
may be safely said that the next week
or ten days will develop facts which
| will either bring about immediate cessa'
ion of hostIitties, or widen the area Of
| war indefinitely.
LONDON, Jan. % "A dis spatch from

| manded of the Car an explanation re-
sp2cting the delays in the armistice ne

server on the summit OF Mount WASH
iDgton. Sergeant Cone had been or
dered to Washington for medical treat
ment, and chose Sunday as the first day
suitable TO attempt the descent. The
party, consisting Of three, descended the
railroad track on a sled as far as jacobs
Ladder with no mishap.
At that point it was decided to light.
en- the load, and Sergeant Cone at
tempted to slide to the base oil
the mountain aioue. His compan-
ion got of, and the sled, with its solita-
~ occupant, began it's perilOus journey.
rhe rate OF speed thus far had been
twelve miles an hour, butnow, owing to
the st. eper grade and light load, The
sled struck o gait OF forty miles per
Aour. The sudden increase in momen-
tum caused Sergeant Cone to lose his
balance, and he was hurled heaalong
one hundred feet into the deep snow.
His companions on arriving found him
insenslble, and fastened TO the Faby'
ians House for help, returning two
hours later with a surgeon. The Ser
yeant was removed to Lytleton, where
1t was found the injuries consisted o.
several bruises on the head, face and
shoulders. No internal injuries are
thought to exist. The depth OF the
snow where he fell only prevented
instant death,
