ascertained that money order was

master at New York City has been
informed by telegraph Of the mon
ey order from that city, and steps
will be taken there at once to hunt
up Bryan, and ascertain what re-
lation he had with Gitteau, and how
he came to send him $25.

here, said this morning that Git
teau is so egotistical he would not
have confded in any body had he
known of persons who were will
ing to join with him, that he inn
agined he was going to commit q
heroic deed and wanted all the no.
toriety.
