Michael 0'Sulliyan, of Memphis, Tennessee.
lie had paid his way 70 Cairo, and that
took all the money he had and all he ex-
pected to have for some time to come. The
chief marched him back to the boat and
told the captain of the Helena that MIR.
O'Sullivan was pauper, and he (the cap
tain) must take him back to Memphis or
some other port besides Cairo. The captain
protested that he did not know that OSul-
Ivan was pauper; that the man had paid
his passage to Cairo, saying that he lived
there. (Being questioned, O'Sullivan said
that he had lived here in 1861 But the
chief was not to be baked; he told the cap
tain that if he brought the man here under
a wrong impression, he should not be al
lowed to leave him here without knowing
what he was doing. That the state law of
Illinois imposed fine of one hundred dol
lars upon persons or companies for bring
ingn persons, known to them to be paupers,
to counties, where they (the paupers) do
not reside "and leaving" them there. The
chief informed the captain that oSulivan
was pauper whose claim to citizenship in
this county was not good, and that the cap
tain must take him away from here or
take law. The captain was willing to do
the fair thing, and promised to take 0'Sul-
Ivan back with. him on his way down from
St. Louis.

rested one Henry Kennerd yesterday after
noon, and confined him in jsil for trial as
vagrant to-day. He is hard looking
case, and his anxiety to get away from the
officers aud leave the itSimmediately may
be taken as an indication that he has an
accusing conscience and fear Of the law.
The chief is of the opinion that the fellow
is wanted somewhere for crime more seri-
Gus than vagrancy, and that his room is
much preferable to his presence.
During last week Anna Dean, wife of

In the Guiteau trial Monday the time
was wholly consumed by the lawyers in
the argument of technical questions, and
Mr.. Scoville, who has grown irritable and
hasty in speech since the chances of victory
for the defense have dwindled almost to
nothing, drew on himself needless con.
troyersy with Judge Porter, and of course
got the worst of it. Upon the opening of
court in the morning Guiteau announced
triumphantly the receipt of checks for
$1,000 from New York stalwarts to aid in
carrying on his defense, and laid great
stress on this striking proof Of change in
public sentiment in his favor. The utter
dishonesty and hopeless moral depravity
OF the wretch has never been more clearly
illustrated than in this pretensc of receiving
outside aid, for the fact was--and he and
everybody else knew it--that these checks
were bogus, and not worth SO much as the
paper ON which they were written.

States Attorney J. NJ. Damron return
ed yesterday from Sandusky, where he
went upon q summons on Monday to at
tend to the prosecution of woman, who
had attempted to poison her husband. The
woman's name is Mrs. Dunning, and living
about three miles from Sandusky. 1t is
said that for some time past she has been
enamored of another man in the neighbor-
hood, and she and he have been holding
clandestne meetings and exchanging let
tiers, etc. AS the ties between these two
strengthened those between husband and
wife sackened until Mrs. Dunning looked
upon her husband with degree of repug-
nance and as an obstacle in the way of her
happiness. She therefore resolved to get
rid of him aud determined upon poison as
the easiest and safest method But the
scheme failed, and Mr.. Dunning still lives
and will continue to live, to see his would
be murderess properly punished if she be
proven guilty. Whether the woman's para
more was party to the crime was not de-
veloped in the preliminary examination to
which Mrs. Dunning was subjected, and
which resulted in binding her over in q
sufficient bond to answer the charge of at
tempted man-slaughter. She was to have
been brought down and placed in the coun-
ty Jail here for safekeeping until the circuit
court can take cognizance Of her case.

and Columbus. The cause Of the
collision seems to nave been imperfect Or
ders to the engineers Of the engines. Both
engineers had orders to go to the same
tank for water, on the same track, at the
same time; and since it is well establish
ed law Of the universe, that two material
things, no matter how infinitismal in bulk,
cannot occupy the same space at the same
time, there was collision between the two
engines One engine had gotten water and
was running back at full speed when she
met the other coming up at full speed.
The tender of the foremost engine was
caught up and thrown on top OF the boiler
of the other. The engineer of the foremost
engine saw before it all occurred that
catastrophe was inevitable, he therefore re-
verscd his engine aud sprang off before the
collision occurred. Suddenly brought to a
stop by the collision and becoming detach

A DErERM1NED ELoPEMENr..
A Policeman Arrests His Enraged Father
in-Law fer Disorderly Conduct.

BALTIMORE, July lS.-Sunday night Mil
lard f. Watkins, policeman OF this city,
eloped with Miss Mary Catherine Fowner,
daughter of James l.. Fowner, liquor
dealer, living at No. Al Pennsylvania avenue.
The policeman, who bears an excellent
character for efficiency and steadiness, had
been paying attentions to the young lady
for several months unknown to the Fowner
family, and formally asked permission to
marry her, but was repulsed. Since July |
the two have been planning for marriage,
which was to have taken place at High Rock,
on the summit of the Blue Ridge mountains,
July 6. The license had been procured and
everything was in readiness, when Mrs.
Fowner, suspecting something, announced
her determination to accompany the couple
on the excursion, which had been arranged
as prelude to the wedding.
Finally, on Sunday last it was arranged
that the girl should leave her home after
dark and join her lover and fellow police
man, who awaited her in the vicinity. This
she did, and the party hurried to the par
sonage of Emory Church, where they were
married by the pastor, Rev. Samuel Shan
non. During the ceremony Mr.. FOwner
missed the girl aud Immediately hurried Il
the home of Watkins, where he suspected
they had taken refuge. Failing to find them
there, he was returning home when he
encountered the bridal party just coming
from the wedding.
