AN 1NFERNAL MACHINE.
It Turns Out to Be Very Harmless Burg
lar Alarm.

New YoRK, April 10.-A sensational story
in this afternoons papers that some fiend
had mailed an internal machine to Miss
Nellie Could daughter OF the great finan-
cier, proves. on investigation, to be untrue.
The package that exploded in the postofice
was burglar alarm, and intended for Miss
Fanny Gould, daughter of a Newark, N. J.,
merchant who is pupil in the private
school of Miss Comstock, on West Fortieth
street This young lady, few days ago,
wrote to a friend for one of these
alarms and he mailed it to her. 1t was of
simple nature, and exploded by conclusion.
Theforce was slight and harmless the inten-
ton being merely to awaken the household
should thief endeavor to gain entrance to
the residence. The young lady to whom it
was addressed was expecting it, and had in
euired for it this morning. Miss Nellie
Gould, daughter of Jay Gould. was a pupil
at Miss Comstock's school in 1877, but since
has pursued her studies at home. The affair
had nothing whatever to do with Mr.. Jay
Gould or any member of his family.

THE sTAR-RoUTE TRIAL.
Miners Poor Memory of His Expediting
Transactions.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-Miner continued
his testimony in the star-route trial to-day
He declared that after January, 1873, he had
never spoken word to Brady on business
matters. Three official papers addressed to
Brady in the spring of 1879, and purporting
to be signed by Miner, were shown witness
He supposed Rerdell had written the sigma
ture. Certainly he (witness) had not signed
them. Mr.. Mer rick then began the cross
examination.
Witness knew John Dorsey and Peck only
slightly when he was engaged in business
with them; but did know that they
were relatives of Senator Dorsey, if
that was what the counsel wanted.
The witness said rather defiantly that he had
been indicted for removing spirits from a
bonded warehouse, but was never within
seven miles of the warehouse, and was not
guilty. Paid 81, 800 to get out of the affair
''Wby did you compromised
The Witness cleaning toward Merrick and
speaking eliberately)-"Becau preferred
paying that amount to being dragged through
trial. and l would do the same in this
case"
Witness had had nothing to do with whisky
for fifteen months before his indictment, ex-
cept to take an occasional drink. 1t was
probable that Rerdell had been directed by
s. w. Dorsey to assist witness in preparing
bids. Boone was mistaken when he said the
proposal signed by Peck bad been spoiled
upon that occasion, and witness had re-
placed it with another bearing similar sig
nature.
Witness said the division was based upon
the value of the routes, as shown by the
profits, and not upon the number of routes.
He believed S. w. Dorsey received little
more than his fair share. No account was
taken OF probable expedition. at would
have made no difference if we did," said
witness, "for S. W. Dorsey got more expedi-
ton than we did" He could not recollect

Special to the Indianapolis Journal


WASHINGTON, April 10.-The Bureau of
Agriculture will issue a livestock circular
tomorrow, putting the loss of wild cattle on
the far Western ranges at between and
per cent. Two years ago the loss approx
mated Is per cent. The advance in the price
of beef made up the loss, however.
1t is reported that H. w. Howgate, ex-sig-
nal officer, who escaped from the custody of
a bailiff in this city, about year ago, while
awaiting trial on charge of embezzlement,
was seen on the street here to-day by an
officer of the signal service.
Representative Matson has for three or four
days been laboring with the Department of
Justice to secure pardon for VIM. II. Grow,
convicted OF violating the pension laws and
sentenced to nine months in the Danville
jail Grow has served four months OF his
sentence, and his friends believe he should
now be pardoned. District Attorney Hol-
stein and Judge Gresham have refused to
make q recommendation in the matter, and
the pardon will probably not be granted.

Report that One of the Prisoners Will
Plead Guilty.
DUBLIN, April 10.-The trial of Joe Brady
indicted Yesterday for the murder of Lord
Cavendish and Burke which was to have
begun to-day, has been postponed until to-
morrow, owing to DR.. Webb Adams, who was
assigned by Judge o. Brien to act as counsel
for Brady, declining to conduct the defense
of the prisoner. Adams gave as a reason that
he was not prepared. The court house was
strongly guarded again to-day. Judge
OBrien intimated to Sullivan that he would
be called on to cooperate with DR.. Webb
Adams in defending Brady. The judge also
expressed the belief that both gentlemen
were unbiased. The judge insisted strongly
that counsel should be ready to defend Brady
despite their protests. d. B. Sullivan is coun-
sci, not A. NJ Sullivan.
One of the men actually participating in
the murder OF Cavendsh and Burke has de-
clined to be defended, declaring his intention
to plead guilty. He has no hope of escaping
conviction. The name of the man is with
held. His statement regarding participation
in crime will be mace in the dock, where he
previously answered for a murderous offense
The man referred to is obviously Patrick
Delaney.

AN EXTRA SESSION.


A Memorial Requesting the President to Call
Congress Together.
WASHINGTON, April 1o.-A memorial has
been sent to the President by the president
and board of directors of the central COM
mittee on national labor legislation, petit
tioning for an extra session of Congress to be
called as early as practicable for the purpose
of considering the relations between labor
and capital The memorialists claim to rep
resent the wage workmen of the United
States in the matter of promoting certain
legislation promised by resolution of the
Senate adopted in 1882. They call the atten-
ton of the President to the fact that nearly
year has elapsed since the adoption of that
resolution to investigate the relations
between capital and labor, and yet
no report on the subject has been made by
the committee to which it was referred, nor
is there any sign of remedial legislation. A
form of investigation was gone through with,
they say, during single week of the last
session of Congress, but further time was
asked by the committee to enable them to
travel over the country land continue what
appears to be useless expenditure of time
and public money in collecting facts already
we'll known" They sdd ut now
appears to your memorialists an alb
surulty lor committee OF grave
senator's to go around the country
on junketing feast at the public expense to
gather cumulative testimony in support of
the evident facts, patent to all who read, and
it is trifing with the indignant feelings of in
telligent workmen, who are the aggrieved
party" They request the President, there
fore, if he feels hampered by the conflicting
opinions of his privy councillors" to cali
together the representatives of the people
elected last fall and submit to their adjudica-
ton this problem of remedial legislation in
the interest of the oppressed wage workmen.

STORMS AT SEA.
Terrible Experience of the Steamship Not
tinghill

HALIFAX, April 10.-The steamer Noting
hill, from New York April for London, put
in here after terrible experience at sea- On
Tuesday evening after sailing, gale began,
which ragged throughout the night, becoming
a cycloneW Wednesday morning, when the ship
was thrown on her beam ends. The two days
following a hurricane prevailed, and the boom
was torn away and dashed against the sky
light of the engine room, into which the
boom and glass fell, seriously injuring three
engineers. All the doors of the deck houses
were burst in, rooms gutted, galley
wrecked, and great part OF
the ships provisions carried away.
Thirty-th feet of solid steel bulwarks were
swept into the sea, and thirty feet more
damaged, and the stanchions torn from their
fastenings as if scartlinss. The heavy seas
drowned the fires and threatened to over
whelm the ship. For forty-eight hours, with
the ship still on her beam ends, and the
pumps choked the men kept bailing but
were only able to keep the water from gain
ing. The live stock in the hold were SWIM
ming about all this time, and having
no fodder Friday morning the men went
in body to Captain Bennett and demand
ed to be taken into port or have the ship
abandoned. The demand was impossible,
the water in the engine-room preventing
fires, and only two boats left. On Friday
night the weather moderated and on Satur-
day the storm subsided. The ship being
tight, the water was quickly reduced and
steam raised, and as soon as the ship got
under way she righted. Examination
showed thirty-four bullocks and six sheep
lost of the 1874 head of cattle and 199 sheep
on board. The remainder OF the cargo is in
good order, except about 100 tons washed
overheard. The cattle and sheep are likely
to be sold here and the ship repair the dam
ages

rEwKsBURY CHARITY.
GhastIy and Unheard-of Heartlessness and
Avarice Exposed.

BosToN, April 10. Governor Butler was
present at the Tewksbury almshouse investi-
CATION to-day Jas. A. Chase testified that
he had worked for Miss Manning, and with
her knowledge had taken bodies to the Har-
ward Medical School by order of the Marshes
The Governor then introduced a sermon
by Mr.. Sanborn, a minister of Lawrence
in which it was stated that Spaulding, one of
the trustees of the almshouse, had boasted
that while no emolument was attached to
the trusteeship he could make it pay, the
Governor intimating that this was done by
turning over contracts to outside parties
with whom Spaulding divided the profits.
The Governor then offered printed testi-
monial to the character of Sanborn, which,
after some discussion, was admitted.
John H. Chase said that since his first testi-
tective and unearthed coffin supposed to
contain the body of Joseph Clark. The
body had previously been sold and the coffin,
which was empty, brought to Boston.
Qnestion-Were other coffins in the same
eaplitioslo
Answer-Iwo poor women had offered
money to witness to put up slab over their
mothers grave, which he refused, but Marsh
said he ought to have taken it. The body
was afterward sent away in another case
The casket supplied by some ladies to put
the body into had been kept and sold by
Marsh, wooden case taking its place.
Detective Innes corroborated Chase's testi-
mony as to taking up Clark's empty coffin, and
the Governor said he would bring it before
the committee but the chairman said the
committee preferred to go and look at it.
Adjourned till tomorrow.

Dick Liddcll Goes Free.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April 10-A special to
the American from Huntsville, Ala, SAYS:
"The case against Dick Liddell, notorious
member of the James gang who was con-
victed at the last term of the United States
Court of conspiracy to rob, sentence being
then suspended was called up to-day, and
Judge Bruce released Liddell upon his per-
sonal recognizance. This is regarded as a
settlement of the case. Liddell is free, and
can now testify in the Frank James trial in
Missouri. All efforts to have Liddell par
doned by the President proved unavailing,
the Attorney general protesting against the
pardon, but his release under the circum-
stances virtually removes the probability of
has being sent up in the case upon which he
was convicted"
