CONKLING,

Whether COnkllng may have had at any
time since his resignation any different pur
pose or not there Is no doubt he Is now in
dead earnest in desiring a re election to the L
5. Senate by the prcsentleglsature at Albany
not only for himself but also his shadow and
colleague, Plat, whose election with himself
indeed he makes a .tnG qu0 nan, for unless
Plat is also reelected he declines pcremptor.

ny; and whatever may have been Conkling s
affected indifference at the start, there is no
doubt he has now taken off his coat and gone
in to win.
He returned to New York from Washington
on Saturday, and IN the evening with Plat,
Arthur, Sharp and other stalwart leaders held
q conference at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. 1t
was there reported that the number of rcpubli.
can members Of the legislature ready to vote
Tor his reelection was 90, to IS opposed to
HIM. Of course In this position there would
be no trouble if the 43 fcathcrheads" or
" halfbreeds,' as they are variously called,
were wiling to go into caucus and abide by
its decision; but this they point blank refuse
to do. The result is, either a compromise OF
some kind must be effected between the war;
ING republican factions themselves, or one or
the other of them must get enough democratic
votes to carry 1t through This, 1t may be
safely set down as settled business, neither
will be able to do, All the democrats are
fighting for IL to prevent any election now, but
to put it off until next winter. when new
legislature shall have been elected, which
there is now every reason to anticipate will be
democratic.
Meantime Conkling and Plat are both at
Albany and up to their arm.pits in the fight.
Gov. Cornell, who ought to be for Conkling,
is acting little otlish, evidently himself want
ing Platt's seat in the senate. Blame who is
too anxious about the result to be able to rest
in Washington has found business" to make
his presence necessary in New York. SO the
fight from day TO day goes on, Albany beng
just now the center Of the intensest political
activity perhaps ever before concentrated at
one point IN this country. No doubt the pres
ence of COnkllng is having powerful effect,
and It is possible that enough of the bucolIc
"festherheads," among whom some weakness
Is said already to be manifestlng itself, may
yet be scared into voting for his reelection to
make up the needed majority; but if such
turns out to be the case, 1t will be the master
achievement of his life and will establish his
supremacy in New York politics on such a
solid foundation as must forever crush his
opponents to which 1t is folly toiunagine they
will consent as long as there is fighting
'ieatherhead" or halfbrecd lett TO make a
kick.
The voting for senator by the legislature at
Albany will commence next Tuesday

\ NEW YORK TRAGEDY About May 18th
there was found, in the Guttenburg woods
near Hoboken, West New York, the body of a
young woman who had evidently been muir.
dered. The whole neIghborhood became
aroused, but the body lay week in She
morgue before any reliable clue to its identity
was found. Then it came to light that on
May Sd woman, evidently the same whose
body was in the morgue had been married in
West New York, by the Rev Mr. Maboa, of
the Dutch Reformed Church, to a man giving
his name as Louis Kettler the woman giving
her name az NINA Schmidt Next day the
man ketler and his new wife were seen 10
enter the Guttenburg woods, and afteg tha,
the woman WAS never again seen alive.
Subsequent investigation brought to high,
that the woman-Mina Schmidt-was the wife
OF Simon Mueller, a to- acconist in New York
City; that month or two ago q sister OF hers
had arrived from Germany, with whom heI
husband became so intimate that she quar-
relied with and finally left him; and AFTER
wards, about the LIST of May, meeting her sis
ter, she told her she had met and married an
other man, who was we'll off and would sail
with her on the 9TH Of May 10 Europe. and
that they intended to settle down with his
people in Alsace. The man was evidently
this Ket,ler, who had been occupying room:
with the woman in New York for week OIL
two, had married her in Hoboken as above
stated on May Sd, and agreed TO sail with hel
for Europe on the 4th; but on that day, The
woman having sold her furniture and convert
ed all she had into money-several hundred
dollars-the man, instead of embarklRg or
the steamer with her, had lured her into thu
woods and murdered her for her money. Blu
the name of the man, as subsequently discov
cred, was not Kettler, but Martin Kenkcusky

SMALL OX.

Our community have been much
exercised during the ten days last past
in consequences of the prevalence Of the
smallpox in our sister city and in
some other towns with which our reo-
pie are in almos daily communication.
So long as there was doubt Of the con-
tagion being the genuine smallpox,
most persons were disposed to treat the
matter with comparative indifference.
But since the most prominent physi-
clans have declared the disease to be
the smallpox, and numbers have died
with it, the anxiety is great thru ugh
out the city that the most stringent
methods be adopted to prevent the APP
prarance of the disease here in this
place. The first sep vas to warn all

SEVERAL LOADED TEAMS from Dayton en-
tered town last Sunday and Monday and dis
charged cargo at several # our stores.
Many complained of this since it was I'M
derstood that the health committee have
ordered quarantine against persons COM
ing from Dayton. We think prudence
should have dictated that before these per-
sons and goods should have been permitted
to enter the town, disinfecting agencies
should have been thoroughly employed both
upon the persons and the goods. II the
parties would not submit to this then they
should have been kept out Of town. If one
class is permitted to come so should another.
In such time of Peril to the health of the
