ALLEGED BIGAMY.

arrest of the Former Editor of the "Drd-
matte Ne,cs" Charged Vith HaUinD II o
Manu Wires.
New York Special, Feb. H.
Charles A. Byrne, executor of the Dramat
&c Ne,os, and Alta Merrill were this morn
ing arraigned in the Jefferson Market police
court. charged with bigamy by Laura A.
Byrne, who claimed to be his wife. Mrs.
Byrne says in her affidavit;
/ am the lawful wife of Charles A. Byrne,
and was married to him on the OH of SEP
TENDER, 1873, in the city of New York, and
continued to live with him as his wife unit
the 9Th day of November, 1873, when he de-
serted me, as l am informed, for one Alta
Merrill, since known as Alta Humphrey,who
was divorced from her husband for adultery
with my husband. The marriage between
me and my husband has never been set aside
by court, bat still remains undisturbed.
With full knowledge Of the fact that was
still his wife, and with felonious intent.
Charles A. Byrne married Alta Humphrey,
at Drummondyile, Canada, on the 2Cth day
of January, 1880.
Mr. Byrne's defense is that former hus-
band of the plaintiff, named II. L. Trinian,
is still living. and that the woman claiming
to be Mrs. Byrne has never been legally sep
arated from him. She, on the other hand,
says she has heard nothing of Trinian for
over four years, and believes, from informa-
tion received, that he died in Germany be-
fore she married Byrne. Considerable testi-
mony was taken, and the court held the
prisoners in bail of 81 800 each, which was
furnished by Theodore Moss. treasurer OF
Walach's theatar.

be imposed upon the speaker, but if standing

Tho previous question was moved and Sec

Mr. Frost then withdrew his substitute and

WINDOW GETS OFF EASY.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-Thc Senate exodus
committee resumed the examination OF wit
nesses yesterday, the committee room being
filled with spectators in anticipation of
the evidence of John B. Syphax, prominent
colored politician of Virginia, who on Monday
had stated he would accuse Senator Window,
a member of the committee, of originating the
movement. SyphaX, in his testimony, recited
the action of Window in the appointment of
the committee and his speech on that occasi n,
which he said was the only ground he had for
making his charge beyond the statement of j
man who sweeps out the Senate chamber that
Window had come to him and re-

the South. Upon the conclusion of his testi-
mony Senator Voorhees,, without asking wit
ness any questions, turned him over to Senator
Window for cross-examination, which was
manly taken up with badinage, nothing at all
important being elected. The witness was
then discharged.
Hon. Z. C. Badger, of North Carolina, Re

and that he didn't believe there was any good
reason for the exodus from that State, and
that in going to Indiana they were counting
starvation, as they could not compete with the
white laborers. The blacks in North Carolina,

vote in the Chicago ccnvention!'
"By no means. The Southern Repubii-
cans are naturally for him. but many of
them are under personal obligations to Sher
man, and will work for him earnestly. Sher-
man will have votes from Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana
and Texas. He may not have an entire del
egation, but he will pick up good many
votes here and there throughout the South.
evil Blaine get any Southern votes?"
"a few, but not nearly so many as Sher-
man.
"How will the New England States go?'
81 am not certain of Massachusetts. Yer
mont is for Edmunds on the first ballot. All
the rest will be for Blaine
"Have you sampled New Jersey?"
60, yes know oil about New jersey.
1t is Grant State, through and through"
"What about Indiana?'
"There will be divided delegation.
Since Morton died there is no Republican in
the State strong enough to solidlfy the party
and manage it. I think rather more than
half the delegation will be for Blaine, and
the rest for Grant"
$40 you count Illinois as solid for Grant?''
''No; don't believe he can get the whole
delegation. Blaine will divide it with him.
AS to Michigan. Wisconsin, Iowa, and the
States further west, Grant can't touch them.
They are all for Blaine.''
"What, then, is your estimate of Grants
probable strength in the convention?''
"Four fifths of New York and Pennsylva-
MIA, all of New Jersey, part of Indiana and
Illinois, and the greater part Of the Southern
vote"
"That would not be enough to nominate
him?''
"WelI, one thing you can depend on. By
the 18th of May Grant will know exactly how
many votes he has in the convention, and if
he has not enough to win he will withdraw.

The elections committee will tomorrow
make report in the D1nnelly Washburn
case, the majority recommending that the
latter be unseated. There will be a severe
fight over the case in the House, as tho Re-
publicans hope to be able to defeat the ma
jority report. The Republicans reason that
as the Democrats have but two or three ma
jority over all, one or two Democrats might,
as has been the fact heretofore in like cases,
be prevailed upon to vote with the Republ-
cans. The Greenbackers are at present much
vexed with the Democrats for their course in
the Yocum- Curtin case, by which the former,
who is Greenbacker, will no doubt lose his
seat. The notorious Bill King, of Mime
sofa, former member, is here III Mr.. Wash
burns interest Wash5urn is wealthy, and,
with sech lieutenant as King, every re-
source will be resorted to to keep the seat,
especially as the losing Of it will lose to tue

nesota in the event of tho election of the
President is thrown into the House.
