New YORK, May 4tb.-The Times New
Haven special says: Mrs. Reid, widow Of
Colonel Reid, brother of Whitelaw Reid, of
the New York Tribune, was married in this
city yesterday to John M. Quackenbos, of
Brooklyn. It was reported tnat the groom
was gentleman of large wealth, much the
senior of the lady in age, and bearing an old
| and respected name. All this proved to be
true. Mrs. Reid is about thirty-eight years
old, while her husband is seventy. She re-
ceived the bridegroom this morning in the
hotel pa-lors, and later in the day they were
| quietly married, and then took the train for
| New York. It is supposed that it is a run
away match, and that Qlsckenbos had good
| reasons to evade certain relatives who bad
been anxiously awaiting the final disposition
Of his property. The sequel, it is thought,
| may not be unlike that of the famous Hick.

Derelict Policemen.
New YORK, May 4tb.-The Times says of
the presentment by the Grand Jury Of the
well. known Police Captain Williams, and
Allaire, for alleged dereliction Of duty in the
matter of suppressing or raidiDg gambling
houses and illegal drinking places in their
several precincts: The case looks very strong
against these officers. The Grand Jury recon-
mends that Williams and Allaire be reno we'd
from their positions and from the force, on
account of their manifest untitness. These
are grave indictments, and we may trust the
District Attorney. who has shown zeal and
discretion in his flee, to bring the offenders
to justice. The Times charges the guilty
knowledge of the haunts and practices of the
gamblers on the Police Commissioners, and
moves for their investigation.
