him. His parents protested and disowned
him. but the couple lived happily, and came
to Chicago eventually, where her beauty and
his wealth and their decent behavior gained
for them social recognition. A few days
since they deemed it wise for her to get o
divorce from her former husband HALL,
which she did at her former country home in
this State, and the parties were remarked
yesterday, when the facts became generally
known, greatly to the chagrin of some of the
hau ton, who have lionizsd them. AS Gruen
Baum's parents have relented and urged the
couple to return. it is probable that they will
leave for more cogenial locality than
Chicsgo is likely to be.

The Ohio seRa;orship-secreta of
the Treasury.
WASHINGTON, November 17th.-The Ohio
Senatorial question is likely to give the Re-
publicans much trouble and may lose them
~ of he
person who succeeds to Garfeld's place in
the Senate must have his claims passed upon
before he takes his seat, and it is now prob.
able that the Democrats will compel him to
wait a long time. The hitch consists in the
legal question as to whether Gar6eld's place
in the Senate is vacant whenever he chooses
to withdraw, or whether he must first become
actually Senator before he can resign.
Garfield will be here shortly, and it is ex-
pected that he will then tender Sherman the
Secretaryship of the Treasury.
Given for What IL is Worth.
WASHINGTON, November 17th-A report
has gained circulation here that some of the
Presidential Electors of California and Ne.
vada claim that inasmuch as the people of
| these States undoubtedly chose them through
a misapprehension, being deceived by the
forged Chinese letter. they are in duty bound
to vote for Garfield. As neither State is
needed by General Garfield, not much i'm
portance is attached to the report, except so
far as it shows revolution of popular feeling
against the Democratic plotters.

Rumored Purchase of n Railroad.
DENVER Coll November 17th.-The
Times this afternoon announces that tele.
gram received from New York states that
Jay Gould has purchased the Denver and
South Park Railroad. the purchase money,
something near two and one-half millions,
having been paid over yesterday. Jay
Gould has been endeavoriDg to get control OF
the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, but
has failed, through the opposition Of General
Palmer, President of the road, and it is
thought the purchase of the South Park road
is made with view to dictate the policy Of
the Rio Grande, The two roads will have
parallel lines to the Gunnison country, and
Gould hopes to bring the Rio Grande &c
terms through the fundamentally of the
South Park road.

ing turned over to Jay Gould, and these
| moves are under his inspiration.

window he was Mortified to find the whole
family lying senseless, powerful odor of gas
from q base.burner stove pervading the air.
The little daughter who last kissed him was
dead. The mother and 11-year-old daughter
were in bed and the infant on the floor un.

Bull Butter at Chicago Fifteen OleO.
margarine Factories in Full Blast.
CHICAGO, November 17th.-The papers are
filed with evidence of the manufacture of
vast quantities of oleomargarine in this city,
equaling 10000 pounds per day. A Tribune
representative went on an inves tigatipg tour
yesterday, and discovered fifteen butter fac
tories in full working order. Butter made
in these concerns is composed of various in.
gradients, soap.stone, lard, tallow and fatty
substances. The disgusting business is SO
profitable thai it fiads numerous people who
embark in it. In some cases the material
employed is vile beyond belief, and most I'M
wholesome in others. Although the taste re-
volts at the ingredients used, they are not
necessarily deleterious. Cheese is also adul-
terated with some villainous matter, and
commission men complain that they are much
injured by this growing element in the dairy
business.
