NEW YoRK,s sENsATIoN.
Arraignment of DIR. Kenney Before the
COrOner-Mrs. DavidsOn's Critical Con-

ditiOn.
New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE finding at Pier
No. 1, in New York, of cigar-box contain
ing fetus of five months, with a heavy
soap-dish and matchbox placed in the pack
age to sink it, has caused unusual excite
ment here, owing to the high social stand
ing of the parties implicated.
The box and contents were taken to In
spector Byrnes, who found written on the
paper with which it was wrapped the name
of G. L. Davidson, Room 121, Fifth Avenue
Hotel. Mr.. Davidson was arrested, and i'm
plicated DIR. Theodore Y. Kenney, of Pater-
son, N. j., where all the parties resided.
Mrs Davidson had been married but six
weeks, and it was at her request that Dr.
Kenney performed the operation which was
so soon discovered.
To-day Mr.. Davidson made a confession,
in which he said 81 reside at No. 172
Broadway, Paterson, N. j. On the 9th of
July last was married to Miss Mamie Bald
win at the residence of her parents at the
above address. On Friday, September l.,
after a five weeks tour through the upper
portion of this State and Canada,we reached
New York, and, my wife, feeling too ill to
go home, we put up at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel and we were assigned to room 121,
My wife feeling no better, / telegraphed to
DIR. T. Y. Kenney, of No. 70 Fair street,
Paterson, N. j., to come at once. He
responded that night, at about s
o'clock. He said she was not strong
enough to give birth to a child, and left
some medicine. He attended her on Satur-
day and on Monday, and gave medicine. On
Tuesday night telegraphed for him. On
Wednesday morning between 5 and $40
o'clock, she was delivered. The doctor and
myself consulted as to what TO do with the
| body. The doctor proposed getting a cigar
box to put 1t in, and for me to throw it over
board from the stern of a ferry boat which
left the foot of West Twenty-thrd street
| put the soap-dish and match box in the
cigar box at the DOCTORS suggestion. Aftel
disposing of the box told my wife what
had DONE"
| Mrs. DaVidson's statement corroborate
that of her husband. DR.. Kenney hat
| known both parties from earliest childhood
and was their most intimate friend. Mrs
Davidson is a daughter of ex-Chief Justice
Baldwin of New Jersey, and is 20 years o
age. Mr.. Davidson is %, and possesses
large fortune. DIR. Kenney's fee for TIN
operation was to be 81, 500. Mrs. Davidson
condition is critical, as she is heart-brokei
with shame over the exposure, and is likely
to die from grief.
DIR. Kenney and Mr. Davidson were ar
raigned before Coroner Brady this evening
Counsellor Howe appeared for them, anc
demanded that his clients be discharged
Coroner Brady decided to take evidence il
the case, and to hold the accused to bail
Mr.. Davidson was held in $4,000 and DIR
Kenney in S., 900 bail to answer. Counse
for the prisoner made a strong protes
against this action.

A Case of Asiatlc Cholera in Newport.

NEWPORT, R. l., Sept. 7.-This morning
Mayor Franklin received from DR.. Francis
II. Rankin of this city an official notifica.
tion that Cabell Auchincloss, the seven
year-old son of Mr.. Henry B.
Auchincloss of Orange, New Jersey,
and New York, who is occupying the
Maher cottage, had died of malignant Ash
attic cholera, and requested that the Board
of Health (the Board of Aldermen, ex-
officio) be called together forthwith. DIR.
Rankin says that at II O'Clock last night he
was called to the child, and at first thought
1t was suffering from diarrhea; but the
later symptoms left no doubt as to the true
nature of the disease, and two physicians
who were called coincided in his opinion.
The Board of Health met this afternoon,
and the physicians attended and declared
that the condition of the public thorough
fares was filthy in the extreme. There was
great deal of loud talk, and finally an
adjournment was had with the view to
taking steps for forming new Board Of
Health.

A strange Fact Of Local History.

In the year 1855 a number OF young men
organized In this city musical organization
known as the Apollo Glee Club. On May
1S, 1857, the club numbered IA, all of whom
were present at the wedding of one of their
number, Edwin Hirst. That was the last time
the Apollo Glee Club met with full attend
ance, although the organization was kept
up for some years. But the strange part of
the matter is that to-day, in spite of the
vicissitudes ofwar, the changes in the aver
age life, and the natural order of things, all
of the IA members are still living, II of them
being residents of Wilmington yet. The
Apollo Musical Society, but recently organ
lied can not flatter itself with having adopted
a new title for their body, and the old asser-
ton that 4" history repeats itself is again
verified.

turbance that was over the West Indies dur

the Gulf of Mexico toward the coast of
Texas, where it is likely to develop consid-

the line of least resistance, which is parallel

ELIND AND CRAZY.
A Blind Man Fatally Injured by Jumping


From a Second Story Window.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 7.-Andrew Meal
lister, blind man of about 60 years, made
two desperate attempts to-day to commit
suicide, and will probably die. About half
past ten o'clock yesterday morning, McAllis-
ter, who lives over the saloon OIL the south
west corner of Eighth and cambridge
streets, was detected in the act of climbing
out the second story window of his home.
He was pulled in from his perilous position.
When asked his purpose he simply said he
wanted drink, and his wife would not give
it to him.
About half an hour afterward, as Thomas
McCloskey, who lives opposite, was stand
ing in front of his saloon he saw the old
blind man again climbing out of the same
window. He ran over and reached the spot
just as the old man dropped. McCloskey held
out his hands and caught the other, who was
coming down head first McAllister was
caught and turned completely around,
landing on his feet, but being blind he
staggered around until at last he fell on his
head against the wall. His jaw was broken
and his head SO badly hurt that his life is
despaired of by the physicians at the Penn
sylvania Hospital, where he was taken.

Esquire r. B. Miller is engaged in
writing a drama in five acts entitled
"The Pedigree; or, the Admiral's
Daughter" So beautiful and thrill
ing a title prefaces a plot of enhancing
interest. The author has submitted
the manuscript Of the first four acts TO
several actors and Others, among them
a lady Of culture of this city, who,
after examination, sent the manuscript
back with the Endorsement that she
thought Fanny Davenport might por-
tray the leading role, but that
Mary Anderson's genius was not
equal to it Esquire Miller
intended at first to write it for two,
leading parts to beItaken by actors Of
the ability Of Oouldock and Daven-
port, but has changed his mind and
thrown all the heavy work on the.
shoulders Of the agonized heroine.
Though founded on fact, the author
says the body Of it was conceived
during the summer Of 1878, and IL the

by having the manuscript submitted
to them are prepared to submit to this

A down town young lady with
romantic turn Of mind has Just played
hockey with a fresh husband.
The lady referred to figured CON,
spicuously five or six months ago in
bogus marriage with barber named
Wilcox or some similar appellatiOn
The barber cleared out rather soor
after the marriage and left his wife, a
grass widow.
For soms time afterward the LADY
was disconsolate aud lonely. Then
she began to receive letters from
various quarters and they seemed to
cheer her spirits.
Recently a proposal or two of fresh
marriage was made to her. She
considered the subject, and finally
wrete a letter to the person making il
that if he'd send ten dollars she'd 60
to st. Louis and marry him. This
the man did, and the young widow
prepared for her journey.
A week or so ago, while active in
these preparations, a lame peddlel
who lodged near her quarters got into
a conversation with the lady, and in q
few hours he turned her course by
persuading her to abandon the trip to
St. Louis, and use the ten dollars tC
marry him.
The wedding came of and the
couple started on q ton. The groom
had a home up the coU try a couple OIL
hundred miles. They yisited that To-
cality and prepared to settle down
there. A couple of days age the
newly-married wife. not liking the
surroundings, quit without saying a
word about it, and leaving her lord in
his lonely misery, she HE'D away,
reaching this city yesterday, pitching
her tent in the same neighborhood
from which she took her departure a
week or SO since.
The sudden coming back ofthe bride
naturally supplies a fund of gossip
among the neigbbors. At first they
we're inclined to believe that she had
devoured her husband, or lost him in
the overflow. Now, however, all
hands are satisfied that it is all correct
aud that the wife off week is merely
desirous of resuming her position Of
grass widow.
