Array stnfe Scandal.

BosrCX, November "A serious social
scandal agitates the little town of Boxford,
in Essex county. 1t seems that in 1879,
young lady school teacher boarded at the
house of William r. Kimball, one of the
most prominent citizens of the town. and
il is alleged that one William jenkins
found abOut that time a letter addressed
TO Mr. Kimbsll which compromised his
character in the worst way. 1t was in a
lady's hand, and began, "Desr Old Dar.
ling" and ended Yours, Baby" The ad.
iectiye old was certainly appropriate for
Mr.. Kimball was then sixty years
Old. The letter is described as being
filled with the most licentious
language possible This matter never
leaked out until last week, when Mr.. Kim
ball was nominated for representative to
the legislature. Immediately the explosion
came and the towDSpeople were thrown
into excitement The church met and
called on Mr. Kimbsll to exonerste him
self or be expelled, ana last night the dele
gates from the represen entstive district met
and rsConsided their action in nominating
Mr.. Kimball, withdrew his name, and nom.
mated another candidate. The accused
citi zen, finding himself socially ostrscized,
to-day secured the arrest OF Jenkins, who
is a well.to-do farmer, on a suit for criminal
libel, and he was held in 5000 for exam
ination November l3. Mr.. Kimbalfs char
acier has always been untarnished and he
Indignantly denies into to the charges now
brought against him.

THE LATEST NEWS OF THE CAPITOL

WASHINGTON, November 2.-Hundreds OF

the past two days for their home Wnere
they go to vote. Treasurer Gilman wofe
q worried expression Of countenance 'n's
afternoon while signing the cheeks ana
drafts for the evening mail He said:
''orer forty of my clerks have left the city
to vote. One teller has done tne WorS Oh
three tellers, and the business OF the ounce
is demoralized. 1t is a dangerous thing
for so many Of the clerks in this office to S,iS be
absent from their posts at one time. MIS-.
takes are liable to occur that might result
in loss to the government Now, in the
Auditors office it would make no dlner-
ence how many of their clerks went away
at a time, because their work is always be-
hindhand, and can be resumed at any time.
In this office it is entirely different No Y.

A SLIPPERY COMPANY
which Has n Way Of Baking the Treas.
ury DeDaFtment.

WASHINGTON, November 2.-The govern
ment witnesses recently sent to Nashville
to testify in the suit of the United States
against the Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis railroad for $l53, ,600in coupons of the
road, and interest thereon, amounting in
all to about $500, 900, have just returned.
The government invested Indian trust
funds in the coupons prior to the late war,
and payment having gone by default, the
suit referred to is TO recover the amount
due with interest. The case has been
dOcketed several times, and was expected
to be tried in Nashville last week. AS has
been the result heretofore, the
case is again continued on the affi.
dayits of the officers of the road and couasel
of the company that proposition of COM
promise is pending before the Treasury. 1t
Is stated at the department that the propo
sition has not been filed in legal way,
and consequently there is no ground upon
which to cUnsider,it. The requirements in
such Cases are, first, that the persons offer.
ing a compromise deposit in the treasury
the fmoant offered, and second, that the
spproval Of the United States attorney be
obtaired. Neither of these requirements
have been complied with. Officers OF the
department are very indignant at the fur
ther postpnnement OF the case and insist
that it should have been tried on its merits
when reached.

WASHINGTON. November 2.-The trial of

fense, whose testimony was lmmaterlal.

her husbands safety, and asked him 70 pro-

self in case of an attack. She had an en-.
gapement with her husband to attend the
theatre on the night of the shooting.
Hon. Geo. C. CiOrham, editor of the Re-
publican. testified that Mr.. Tichenor, a
friend of Soteldo's, called with papers that
reflected on Barton, and desired him to
read them, but he declined. The object OF

order Barton TO cease attacking Soteldo.
After several unimportant witnesses were
examined, A. L. Soteldo was placed on the
stand. He testified that he accompanied
his brother to the Republican office, and
