now say that he had seen Senator Sherman's
signature in autograph albums. Witness
then told of the opposition to Packard IN

prominent republicans during the canvass,

been excrtcd to secure his nomination. In
conversation with republican speakers, wit.

ness is not Hayes republican. We were

Mr.. Potter asked whether the allegations
Of fraud and intimidation were not made at
the election, and witness replied affirmative.
ly that charges Of intimidation were made
by the republicans in the parishes where
their vote had fallen off. Wit.
ness said that the democrats conciliated the
colored people by buying their votes. In

A DRAMATIC SUICIDE.

Chicago, July Pa Times special from
Capron, Illinois, says: A dramatic suicide
occurred there Tuesday night. Early last
May, Geo. w. Burleigh, who is an old resi-
dent Of Ohio, having lived in various parts
Of that state, came to that town ostensibly to
start tonsorial establishment. Burleigh
was man Of varied accomplishments, fine
education and versatile in conversation.
While at Csrron he was often in depressed
spirits. Last Sunday he published card
informing the citizens that in order to graft
fy an often expressed curiosity, on the part
of the townsmen, to witness some such trag-
edy as the hanging of Sherry and Connolly,
in Chicago, he would. on the evening of the
23d inst, deliver lecture in Thornton hall,
and at its conclusion, crafty them by shoot
ing himself through the forehead. The
price Of admission would he one dollar, and
the amount realized should be used in his
funeral expenses. and the remainder to be
invested in the works Of Huxley, Tindall
and Darwin, for town library. His idea
in ending his life was to secure eternal
peace by annihilation. AT the appointed
time the hall was crowded, and after deliv.
ering an iniidel lecture of wonderful power
in manner and tone, which marked him a
an adept, he suddenly drew derringer
placed it to his forehead, and despite the at.
tempts to prevent the rash deed, fired, and
fell into the arms of two friends who were
on the wing of the stage, for the purpose o.
hindering the execution of the design. The
large sized ball literally tore his brain t.
pieces. He left a request that his body bt
forwarded to Cincinnati friends.

THE POTTER INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE.
Atlantic City, N. J., July Secretary
Sherman resumed his testimony this morn
ing before the Potter committee. The Sec
retary was INTERCEPTED by Representative
Hiscock, and said that on the 18th Of No
vember visiting republicans called ON the
returning board 70 pay their respects, hav-
ing understood that the visiting democrats
had paid similar respect of courtesy the
day before. The republicans stated that
they came to New Orleans at the request of
President Grant, to witness the count, and
not to interfere with the official duties
Of the board and they expressed
the hope that the proceedings
would be conducted openly. The board
adopted a resolution inviting five gentlemen
on each side to be present as witnesses Of
the proceedings. His conversation on the
subject of crimes committed in Louisiana,
were similar to the remarks he had uttered
| in the senate, and he would make them in
New Orleans to-day. Applauded by the
audience.l There never could be peace and
quiet while these things occurred. He
could not think of these occurrences, even
now, without feelings of resentment and
without exciting his anger. The testimony
was overwhelming.
Secretary Sherman 10 reply to question
handed in q memorandum, detailing the
circumstances of Anderson's visit to him q,
the treasury department. in March last, and
giving an account of the conversation al
noted at the time by the secretary's steno-
grapher. In the course of the colloquy
Secretary Sherman in reply to Anderson
said that he did not remember certain con
versation, to which Anderson replied, II
you don't, then there is no use in my recall
ing 1t.

chan, who killed Micheal B. Dalthier,
in April last, was hanged today.
Washington, July 26.-It il expected at

New York, July 26.-Twenty.two tons of

Portland, Oregon, July 2G.-Wm. B. Tay-
lor was arrested to-day by Sheriff Bolton, of
Iowa county, Iowa, on q requisition. Tay-
lor was under heavy bonds to answer TO the
charge of embezzlement Of the county funds,
when he left Iowa, about year ago.
Quincy, July 26.-This city was visited
last night by heavy rain storm, which did
great damage in the city and vicinity. The
injury to the street amounts to nearly $10.-
600, and the damage to private property is
much greater. Bridges over streams in and
near the city, were washed away; cellars
we're flooded, and in some instances stocks Of
goods in store were greatly injured by the
water. One family who were surrounded by
the flood were rescued at late hour las,
night in boats. The rain is believed to be
the most severe that has ever visited thi.
section.
Chicago, July 20.-Thc signal service
observer here, reports the rain fall las,
night, according to guage. at over four
inches-the greatest on record here at any
one night. Elsewhere in the northwest
except at Quincy, there seems to have beer
very much less rain. The damage in the
city on account Of flooded Easements can
not be calculated. Among the heavies
losers are, Carson, Pierre 81 Co., west sid,
dry goods house. Thei. basement va
flooded. and the goods reported damaged
$4,000. Of this amount, $4,000 was il
carpets. The postoffice building which il
undergoing repairs, suffered to the extenl
of many thousand dollars, rain coming il
from the roof, drenching the feors and
ceilings and damaging stock of posta
cards, blanks, ETC., The military head
quarters in the same building, suffered con
siderably. On Milwaukee avenue, abou
thirty Easements are filled with water. Tn
principal loss then falls on Clement, Say
er s Co., clothiers. The Tribune's edition
was delayed two hours by water, and base
ments on tie lake, and south Of the waite
streets, we're overdowed to the great dan
age of poultry and culinary. On Indian
street water was several feet deep. A stron
east wind was blowing during the entir
time of the storm, from 0 p. m. to 4 a. m
and the water in the lake being forced u
high on the west shore, gave no chance 70
sewers and drains to dischare their contents
In consequence the water in many case
sought an outlet in the Easements.
