TERRIBLE CRIME.
A Lady in New York Found Blind
folded, Gagged and Dead.

New YORK, June 11.-Mrs. j. L.
D. Hull, aged ifty-eight years, wife of
DIR. Alonzo j. Hull, was found dead
in her bed at No. 1860 West Forty
second street, this morning. Her
hands and feet were tied, She was
blindfolded, aud the gag was in her
mouth. The trunk at the bedside
was open and riaed of its contents.
An examination of the premises
showed that an entrance had been
effected through the front door, which
was open, and all other parts of the
house secure. The fingers were badly
torn, and her friends say that one
large diamond ring and one emerald
has been taken therefrom. The
neighborhood is in a state of wild ex-
citement, and the police are without a
clue.
The colOred servant girl who discov-
cred the body said that about Z o'clock
this morning she went to her mistress
room to receive her instructions for
the day. She found the door open.
which was something unusual. On
entering the apartment she saw the
body Of Mrs. Hull firmly bound
to the bed by strings Of sheeting.
Another piece was tied across her eyes,
a gag was firmly tied IN her mouth and
a piece of shawl was strapped around
her neck. 1t was evident the lady's
death resulted from strangulation, for
the shawl was tightly drawn around
her neck. On her body we're found
several COMMISSIONS and slight wounds
which had been received in the scufle
with her assassins. The lock on the
door leading to her bedroom was found
to have been tempered with, and the
front door leading to the house had
been found open at six o'clock,
a short time before the murder of
Mrs. Hull was brought to light by the
servant girl. There were no marks
found on the massive door, and on
that account the police suppose that
an entrance was effected by means Of
false keys. The murder and robbery
was done, it is thought, some time
during the night, for when the body
was found it was quite cold. One Of
the chambermaids who passed the
night in a room near the one N
which Mrs, Hull was murdered says

GRESSlO
Consideration Resumed of the Bill
Authorizing Troops in Certain
Cases--0ther Proceedings.

WASHINGTON, June ll.-SENATE-
Consideration was resumed ofthc Nc
Donald bill to authorize troops in ccr-
rtain cases and repeal certain election
laws.
Mr.. Hill began his speech on the
bill by saying he intended to reply to
personal illusions, but not to retaliate
nor to make a personal attack on any
senator.
Mr.. Hill said his vote in the Gcor-
gia convention was against the ordi-
nance Of secession and was adopted by
the convention, and after that it was
only a question Of whether the people
of the State should uphold its solemn
action in convention. He therefore
signed the ordinance of secession after
its passage, as did all his colleagues,
though one-third of the members
voted with him against it.
HoUsE.-Mr. Stephens, of the coin
age committee, reported the bill for
the adoption of the metric system of
weights and measures and coinage.
Ordered printed and recommitted.
Mr.. Carlisle, from the committee Of
ways and means, reported the senate
bill allowing vinegar factories which
were established and operated be-
fore the first of March, 1879, to CON
tinue their business by the use of alco-
holic yapor, even when within six
hundred feet off distillery or rectify-
ing house, was prohibited by the exist
ing law under regulations to be pre-
scribed. The bill was passed.
The morning hour was dispensed
with, and pending the business Of that
hour the bill relative to the removal
of causes from State to Federal courts
having been referred to a committee
of the whole, was not to be brought
up at the present session.
Mr.. Knott, Of the judiciary com
mittee, submitted a report that the
committee on the veto of the message
of the President be printed and re-
committed.
The house then proceeded to a con-
sideration of the army appropriation

glcbules in which its virtue has
hitherto been supposed to be resi-
dents; aud It may be stated. as a gen
eral proposition applicable to all dis
eases distinguished by the develop
ment Of minute organisms in the cir
culation or elsewhere, that wherever
a thorough investigation has been IN
stituted it has been found that the
organisms themselves are not con-
cerned in the propagation of the dis
ease. 1t is, in the present state of
microscopic Investigation, falacious
and absurd to keep on repeating the
confused and confusing jargon current
in medical publications about small
pox, %soarlatina, yellow fever, typhoid.
anthrax, malarial germs, etc, since in
every instance where the germ theory
has been fairly tested, and the in
stances are now very numerous, Prof.
Tyndalps pretty little fiction has
broken down.
What, then, is the poisonous agent
concerned in the propagation of dis
eases? Without discussing this ques-
ton i'll a general way, | shall frankly
say that, both from the symptoms and
the phenomena of the disease in gem
eral, a well as from the study of
in healthy and diseased ami
mails, | have been slowly but inevita-
bly, driven toward the conclusion that
OF rabies belongs to that subtle
and potent class known as animal al
kaloids. Its effects on the nervous
are distinctively those of an
alkaloid poison, aud with this view all
my recent Investigations in the labo-
of the college have been d.
rected in tracing out the chemical
in saliva produced by rabies
and other nervous affections.
