WASHINGTON, Feb 9.-The air is full
Of rumors of the expected outbreak of
a great social scandal. in which the
names OF a prominent Senator and Il

There is a story of divorce proceedings
about to be instituted against the Sena-

which are likely to Gauss considerable
excitement. There is no evidence but
rumor OF it all, however, although
pretty circum5tantial story IS told.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
Attempted burglary.

Last night about midnight another at
tempt was made to break into the cellar OF
the residence Of E. J. Zahm, No. IA Last
Lemon street. This makes the fourth time
Mr.. Zahm's residence has been visited by
thieves since last spring. Twice they sue
cecded in getting in and stealing nearly all
the provisions in the cellar, and twice they
failed. Last night they did not get in
the outside cellar door being fastened Oh
the inside with a strong bar. The
thieves did not succeed in breaking
the bar, but they raised the door several
inches. 1t is well for them that they did
not get in, for these repeated attacks OH
his premises has compelled Mr.. Zahm to
make ample preparations to receive mid
night visitors, who will not only find it
difficult to get into his house, but far more
difficult to get ont.
There is reason to believe that women
as we'll as men have been engaged in these
depredatiOns. During one of their former
visits to the premises, in their hurry to get
away, few packages of goods were left
behind and these have the car-marks of
having been tied up by woman. Last
night two suspicious looking women were
seen outside tho premises just before the
attempted burglary. 1t is believed they
were the accompliccs Of 4 man who was
engaged in doing the heavy work and who
was at tho time secreted in the garden.

Of creditors. The foreclosures referred to
were in many instances in bankrupt and
other like cases where it was necessary to
perfect title, nor is the number of fore
closures at all remarkable when Mr.. Eng
lish's immense business is taken into con-
sideratiOn. The papers Of indianapolis
have not copied the Commercials stuff, nor
has the publication done Mr.. English the
least injury.
The second batch in the Commercial is
signed "JOhn u Smith. His Mark, ," car
ryinS on its face the evidence that it is the
work of a malicious Republican, who prob
ably deludcd this ignorant man into say
ing what he did not intend to say, and
which was in some respects certainly un'
true il he did say it. Mr.. English is the
last man to have used the language attrib.
utcd to him, and did not use it. The suit
referred 10 wan not with Mr.. English Mt
all, but with railroad company, Of which
MIR. English was neither president mol
owner Of u controlling amount Of the stock
AZ stated by the Commercinl. lie aided in
securing Smith ~, 200 in a compromise,
one half Of which, it seems, was golbleG

Our readers will bear us out i'm saying
that the Sun is not in the habit of trying
to encourage its friends with exaggerated
reports of the political situation cr with
false hopes of the future.
But we think that the prospect in Indi-
ana is now good. Mr.. Hendricks, Mr..
Mcdonald, Mr.. English, Mr.. Voorhees,
and all the other good men and true there
are doing their whole duty. There is a
mighty and an earnest crowd of them, and
we judge tina: in October the friends of
Hancock and English will carry the state
by a majority sufficient for every patriotic
purpose.
The business of the hour is work but
the harvest promises to bc glorious in

Cincinnati Enqui,cr, gust sn, 1880.
To tho Editor ofthc Enquirer.
One Of the campaign stories recently
published in the Cincinnati Commercial in
relation to purchases of property at tax
sales in Marion county, Ind, by Hon.
William II. English, is very ctlectually
squelched by the following card, volun-
tarily published by the two very respectable
Republican citizens of indianapolis who
made the purchases for Mr.. English
ITO tho Public.
''In reference to the publication recently
made in the Cincinnati Commercial in re-
lation to purchases Of property at tax sales
in Marion county, Ind, in the name of
William II. English, We know that said
publication is unjust to Mr.. English. We
were the agents that made all these pur-
chases and they arc all cases where Mr..
English owned or had an interest in the
property, and bought solely for the pur-
pose of saving himself from penalty, and
not for the purpose of speculation. We
had express instructions from Mr.. English
not to bid off any property on speculation.
We arc both Republicans and make this
statement purely as matter of justice.

The statement in the same article about
foreclosure of mortgages is Of like charac-
