Especial Telegram to the Globe.
PHILADELPHIA, June 8.-The statement that
Mrs. Alice Oates, the actress, had been married
in this city is confirmed. On Saturday even
ing, May Gath, she was Joined in wedlock to
Samuel P. Watkins, at the residence of his
father, No 724 North Twentieth street. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. Joseph Neill,
who is at present acting as preacher to the
German Lutheran CONVERSATION Mie az Mlne.esnin
the city for few days, and afterwards proceed
ed to Louisville. where Mrs. Oates-Titus-Wat-
kins is at present.
Louisville Courier-J ouynal, June g.: Mrs.
Alice Oates declines to favor the public with a
vindication, and she has envelored herself with
such an atmosphere of mystery that she lays
herself open to the most unpleasant surmises.
The Cour4er-J Journalist who called upon
her Wednesday evening, and who was as
assured that she would grant him an audience
and statement yesterday afternoon, visited her
residence at the hour appointed. She again
pleaded illness and refused to appear. On
entering the parlor the first person the news
gentleman, who had been figuring all along so
in the background of the affair, is
no less an individual than Mr.. Samuel Watkins
of Philadelphia. This fact is known, beyond
any dispute. He was married to Mrs. Oates.
at the residence of his father. Mr.. William
Watkins, in Philadelphia, May 16. The bride
groom is a nephew Of the late Mr.. Sim Wat
kins, who, in his day, was prominent local
politician, and one of the best fremen Louis
vile ever had, and for whom the
Watkins engine house was named,
Mr.. Watkins has made himself known
to relative in this city whom he accidentally
met upon the street. The reason MI. and Mrs.
Watkins have been endeavorlng to conceal the
fact of their marriage from the public is en-
tirely owing to their fear that its knowledge
would interfere with Mrs. Watkins engage
Eient next year. MIR. Watkins has been separ-
ated from his first wife for some time. As to
the Laurent letters, Mrs. Watkins denies their
in toto, and still persists that the
whole thing is blackmailing conspiracy to in
jure her. 1t is needless to say that the public
is waiting for her to take such action as shall
set her right in the popular regard. This is
particularly desired by her friends in Louisville.
Mr.. Watkins is, at home, condected in busi-
ness with his father, Mr.. William Watkins.
They are engaged in the notion business, and
are accounted prosperous, well-to-do people.
They are scarcely to be considered wealthy, but
are in com Portable circumstances. ~

Tobacco killing HIATT. Carpenter,
New York SUM-

MILWAUKEE. June 2.-Senator Matt. Car
penter's physician has ordered him off to
Florida for his health It is given out that
the trouble is rheumatism, but every one
who knows tie Senator's habits understands
it is tobacco. He smokes from twenty to
thirty choice segars day, and fills in the
spare time with pulls at his pipes. He may
go to Florida, but unless he gives up tobacco
he will not improve. He is slave to it, and
it is killing him His arms and legs are as
little as pipe-stems, and the flesh is gone
from his body. Yet he is as cheerful and as
lively as of old, and does not indicate by his
manner that anything is the matter with
him.

CHICAGO, June Tn The custom house con-
struction cases to-day Judge Dyer occupied
three hours in delivering his charge to the jury.
He reviewed the evidence as offered and the
authorities referred to relating to conspiracy to
defraud. Shortly after 8 o'clock the jury en-
tered the court room with a verdict of .acquit-
tai Of all the accused. This result was expected
and has been suggested in these dispatches.
1t would seem that as all of the points charged
in the Indictment of fraud upon the govern
ment to, the extent of over eight hundred
thousand dollars, that the jury accepted the
theory of defense that the responsibility did
not rest upon the contractors but upon the
hundreds Of laborers employed on the work.
This was the theory set up by Assistant Score
tary French in extenuation and apology upon
a preliminary report made by government
officers here. Chicago has for public build
ing pile of rotten stone and the feeling is not

The most singular feature ct this table IS
the falling off in production of the State

be inferred that only seven barrels Of beer

reputation Of being q cold man, still pos
sesses debonair and mild demeanor, and
is always gentlemanly and refined. Though
of nervous organization, his gentility en-
ables him to exercise his power with due
complaisance, and to possess his strength
in repose.. There is never any buster about
Mr.. Sherman, and in this respect he is un-
like almost every public man In Washington,
especially in Congress. The present cabinet

Crealock asking him to send a European to dis
cuss terms of peace. John Dun accordingly

turned, the negotiations having failed because
surrender. Cetexayo's good faith is doubted.
It is thought he will probably shortly throw
his whole strength against the lower Turgela
columns. The contemplated rapid march
against Cetewayo's kraal at Ulundi has been
abandoned. Transport difficulties are increas-
ing owing to the scarcity Of grass. The health
of the troops is improving. It is reported
Major Chard, who distinguished himself at
Rorks drift, has died of fever. It is rumored
the Zulu commander Danbol Manzi, while on
the way to surrender to the British was inter-
cepted and killed.
A dispatch from Lanaman's department,
dated May 18th, says spies report there are four
Tulu armies in the eastern angle Of Zululand
designing to enter the colony.

THREA TENED CONTRADICTIONS
1t would appear that we have had
enough contraction from Legitimate
causes, but it seems likely enough
that we will have temporary con
traction from the very unexpected
lump the 4 per cents took the other
dav. There is still $18,000,000 OF
unredeemed ten-forties held in the
Treasury Department to secure cir
culation of National Banks caught in
the sudden rise in the price of tours.
Notwithstanding the assertion that
some of the banks will permit these
bonds to remain here, it is not be-
lieved that they can afford to do it.
Six months interest is due on the
bonds, and cannot be collected until
they are surrendered for redemption.
The banks, therefore, will not only
be out the interest on the capital in
vested in the bonds, but will also be
deprived of the use of the accrued
interest, which amounts to $3.50, 900.
When it is considered that the banks
have loag complained that the ex
penses of maintaining circulation
makes the profit on it only some
thing like two per cent, it will be
realized that it is not probable that
they will permit this large amount
of bonds and accrued interest money
to lie idle in the vaults Of the Treas
nry. Neither, say they, can they
afford to pay the existing peremium
on fours for the purpose Of replacing
ten-forties. This being The situation,
there are some fears expressed that
the result will be an important con-
traction Of the currency. Since the
1st Of July 100000 of ciroula-
ton have been surrendered by Ma
tionaI banks. aud it is expected that
more of the banks owning the unre.
deemed ten.forties will order them
redeemed and send in greenbacks to
be held to take up their own bills as
they come in. This will lock up at
once temporarily justso many green,
backs, and in the end will retire
from circulation an equal amount of
bank notes. The amount of circu-
lation secured by the unredeemed
bonds is $16. 200 900. and if large
per centage of that should be retired
in consequence of the predicament
in which the banks find themselves,
it will make an important difference
in the currency of the country.

It is stated that Gen. Ewing, in
his Democratic canvass for Cover
nor of Ohio. is making a strong point
on the fact that his party, since hav-
ing the majority in the House OF
Representatives, has effected great
economies in the administration OF
tho Government. The notorious
fact, however, is pointedly made,
that since the Democrats obtained
the mastery of the House the lobby
has utterly disappeared from Wash
ington, which is an argument every
farmer and mechanic in Ohio can
understand. 1t means that huge
and wasteful leaks in the Treasury
have been stopped.
