in fcrreting out the culprits guilty OF dropping
cut the effective clauses Of the Hot Springs pro-
visions in the Sundry Civil bill. 1t will be re-
membered that the bill was enrolled the last
night 81 the session, ana il was claimed by the
Clerk Of the House that the two pages were
omitted By accident in the rush to get the bill
enrolled So that Congress might adjourn.

TINT the omission WAS the result II con-
sliiacy that the Secret Service agents Of the

The general impression that the actor

likely - hc removed. His executors find that
inter the expenses for en- haming and for the fu-
neral and incoming drafts are paid. there will
be- but $1,000 or 10000 to transmit to his
mother. The claims on this side the water are
not great. but on the other side thero is said to
be n considerable amount duo. Tho chief crcd-
itor. however is ono Of Montague's warmcst
friends. ana it is believed he may not press his
claims.
When Montague started for California, al
though he had boon very in AMI was even then
travelling against the protest Of his physician.
he hal not made formal Will. With Mr. Louis
Smons and Mr.. T. II. Edwards he took n cur
riago for tho cars. On his way to Cor,landt
street he suddenly asked Simons for piece Of
paper. ANYTHING will do he said. simons
hastily tore Jagged leaf from Il poke, diary.
and Montague hurricdly wrote on It with
pencil. Then turning 1t over he said: Sign
your names boys; This is my Will" They did
So. on the lmek, IF tho paper. which Montague
thcn handed 60 Mr.. Simons to retain.
