p4rti acquainted with the fact are nov
making an effort 10 d.. il will re-ult disas-
rrOu,ly for the social and political standing
Of the parties more prGmi ncntiy interested.
The outline Of the affair was placed in the
possession Of reporter of The Critic this
morning, who Sc out to secure All the facts
connected with the case, if possible aud sue

information was given were willing to TAKE
any responsibility
"One gentleman, who Is more than usu-
ally interes ted in the fate and good name y
one ot the ladies implicated, desired tnat
nothing Of the affair be published at all, in
