Horrible Deprayity.

A young man named William Ely, aged
about 10 years. and hailing from Auden-
ried, it is asserted, has committed a horrible
outrage on little boy named William Gal,
laGher, of Tresckow. 1t appears the assault
was made in the woods near the highway,
and the boy would have probably been
ki lied if the brute had not been frightened
away. The assault Is nameless inr its utter
beastiality. but fortunately the crime is COW
eren by a law passed in 1879 by the Penn.
sylvania Legislature, making the penalty
ten years imprisonment. Ely was arrested
on Monday afternoon, had hearing before
Justice Williams aud was committed To iail
on the charge of indecent assault to await
the action Of the Grand Jury -Hazleton
Bulletin.

In his opening address to the jury yesterday
Colonel Bliss made his charges OF fraud against

out reserve or equiyocation. lie declared that
through the action OF the defendants more than
$4,000 hid been frau iu.ently taken from the fed
eral treasury without any adequate return, or, In
palmer language, stolen He said the Increase
allowed 70 various star route contractors was so
excessive that it could not have been granted by
an honest public officer. In connection with this
feature OF the case he promised to show by evil
dence that some OF the favored contractors per-
formed the Service under their expedited contracts
with the same number OF employees and horses that
had bee. used under the original contracts. In
other words, these contractors who were given an
increase OF compensation amounting In some
cases to ten times the sum OF their original con-
tract, the plea that the expedited service would
require OF them an Increase OF expenditure IN that
proportion, did not in fact increase their eXpend-

which al increase of S30O10 was allowed con-

The members OF the Episcopal convention ex-
press their satisfaction with the bushes S-like,
harmonious session Uf the body. During the seS-
sion the convention dealt with several subjects
which have been rather avoided In previous years.
The question IN regard to the rights and powers OF
the stlE Ing committee was carried to an issue,
and the committee By their reelection was suS-
tanned the opposition claim, however, that the
vote shows taat a majority OF the clergy were OPP
posed 10 the policy OF that committee, and that
they were sustained by the lay vote. So both
sides able 10 mad something satisfactory In the
action taken. The amendment OF the committee
on canOn3, excluding clergymen from seats In the
convention wh$weTe under ecclesiastical cenSure,
was also another important issue in the conyen-
ton. The defeat Of the committee is regarded on
one side as triumph OF the rtu lists, but that in
Ference Is denied on the other. The latter say
that while all the ritU3liStS were opposed to the
standing committee and the amendment, there
were large number OF strong antl-ritualists that
took the same ground. Division lines were not
Strictly defined, 1t is maintained, except on the
first question, and then it was an issue between
the cons 'Tyatiyes and the liberals.
Altogether, it would seem there was no such de-
cided triumph on either SIDE as to leave ground
for bitterness OF feeling and the general results OF
the convention have undoubtedly been in the in
terests OF Cancellation.
