ticularly to kill two moulders named Laf.
leure and Sessions, who were pouring mol
ten iron into moulds when they discovered a
mould that had apparently been tempered
with. They were Just ready to raise the
handle and fill this particular mold when they
decided to make a closer examination. This
they did by scraping away the sand from the
inside of the mould; this process revealed
paper bag which contain ed about two pounds
of gunpowder.
The hellish plot is believed to have been
gotten up by number of indictments who
are now on a strike They desired particu-
larry 70 wreak vengence upon Sessions, who
after joining strike which was inaugurated
at the works in February last soon left the
strikers and resumed work. The effects of
the explosion would have been frightful, as a
large number of men were standing near
waiting an opportunity to fill their moulds
and the white hot iron would have been
thrown In every direction. Sessions was as
sauIted near his home one night few weeks
ago and it was thought at the time that t he
outrage was the work of strikers but it could
not be proved. The police have taken the
matter In hand and are pushing the inyesti

Grant With the ex-Senators.
CHICAGO, June 12.-General Grant in an
interview said he had obtained all he wanted
IN Mexico for his railroad, that four survey
parties are already at work, and that he
should very likely return there next week
General, the situation of affairs at Albany
Is OF great interest to us just now; have you
any objection to giving your opinion on it ?''
If you want to know what think of the
manner in which Conkling has been treated
by the President and his colleagues in the
Senate will tell you without any hesitation.
L think it is outrageous, and if you want to
know where stand in the present contest
will tell you thatfI am with Conkling and
Platt Conkling is my friend. He has
been a warm supporter of mine, but for all
that do not owe him near much to-day
as Garfield. It is true Conkling did not sup
port Garfield in the Chicago convention, but
he saved him in November. Without New
York State Garfield could not have been
elected, and without Conkling New York
State would not have gone Republican.

Remembering the Heroes.


The beautiful ceremony of decorating the
soldiers graves in the cemetery at North
Haven was appropriately observed on last
Saturday. At o'clock in the afternoon there
were services in the Congregational church,
which commenced with the hymn finely
rendered, 'Jesus lover of my soul" This
was followed by reading of the Scriptures,
and prayer by Rev. Mr.. Tenney, of Walling
ford. The roll honor of those who are buried
in the cemetery was then read by the presi-
dent of the day, Albert A. Hyde. The Grafton
was delivered by Rev. I. G. Meserve of this
city, and was worthy of the distinguished
clergymen. The address, which was delivered
in the church, lasted over an hour. Follow
ing the whole congregation gathered in the
cemetery, where an address was delivered by
Charles A. Baldwin, of this city. The graves
were then decorated. there was more singing
by male quartette and the closing prayer
and benediction were made by Rev. Mr.
Meserve. The decorations of the church
were very fine. Many national flags were
hung around the sides of the church and
flag was wound around the pulpit.

The special committee appointed to inves-
tigate charges of bribery held short session
yesterday morning. A long controversy took
place between the counsel employed to repre-
| sent Bradley, the aeeuser, and Sessions, the
accused, and the committee itself over the
| proposition for adjournment The committee
finally adjourned until Monday morning
The only witness examined was Assemblyman
Tremble, of New York city, who testified
| that Lobbyist Edwards had approached him ;
that he visited his room and indirectly stated
| that if he would change his vote from Conk-
| ling to Depew, Depew's friends would pay
| the expenses of his re election and his expen-
ses in Albany during the winter.
| In the Senate Mr.. Foster offered resolu-
ton that the next manual contain the portrait
of Edwards the alleged lobbyist, briber, etc,
together with personal description in order
that unsophisticated country members might
be fully informed regarding him.
There are many who believe the prese Mt
week will make the election of Rogers and
Depew, or if not final adjournment will per-
haps be effected. While all Republicans as
sert they are prepared and determ ined to re
main until December, yet the most casual
observer can note the growing belief that
the issue had best be left with the people for
final settlement. Already the public press
have commenced advising an adjournment,
and marked papers of such advice
are received daily and freely distributed.
There is no excitement at the hotels to-day
During the past week an evening paper pub
lished the fact that a number of bills of a
large denomination had been drawn from one
of the city banks. It also said with |
equal truth that State Treasurer Wendell was |
an officer of the bank and John F. Smyth a |
member of the board of directors. Investi- |
cation reveals the fact that the money was |
drawn by broker of this city for the use of |
aparty engaged in mercantile pursuits. This |
fact will settle any wrong differences which |
might be drawn from the article in question. |
Senators Conkling and Platt passed quiet |
Sabbath, receiving callers and holding no
political conferences. Their policy appeared
cusing and to let matters at Albany develop
without any outside aid The latest phase
of the situation from a stalwart standpoint is
that in case Depew should be elect
ed, which they seem greatly to
fear, a special committee will be raised |
in the United States Senate to investigate the
charges of alleged bribery in the hope that
the Democrats, being in the majority, will
expel him and will thus create a vacancy for
the next Legislature to fill. Conkling and
Platt and Vice President Arthur will return
to Albany tomorrow evening by boat and
will be on hand to superintend the balloting
trains tonight carried back to Albany most
of the Senators and members Depew was
on the train. He declined to converse with
reporters except to say that he had sixty sure
votes and expected to be elected before the
week is OUT.

William Harcourt promptly denounced in the
Commons the earlier reports of the Skibber-
cen riot, which was much less serious than it
was said to be, and which was quelled as
soon as the police arrived on the scene. Mr..
Shaw went to London to day, and means to
deny on Monday in the House of Commons
the exaggerated accounts of the riot at Cork
the other night. He assured me that if the
riot would never have been transferred to
the streets of Cork, and I can testify that the
chief participants were small boys of ages
ranging from ten to twelve. Most of those
who were arrested were youths. The condi-
ton of the country is too serious to allow OF
