The Rathbbone Tragedy.
Further Particulars Concerning the Sad
Affair The Colonel Likely to Recover.

An Albany, N. Y, despatch says the Rath-
bone tragedy in Hanover, Germany, has been
the absorbing topic of conversation in socia |
circles OF that city, where all the parties are
well known, being connected with leading
families Of the city. It is said that Col. Rath
bone was mau subject to violent outbursts of
temper He was devoted to his wife, and in
recent years exhibited spirit of jealousy
which manifested itself whenever any gentle
man, even relative, approached her. This
trait has been growing on him, and had deyel-
oped to such sn extant that some of his
friends considered him 3 monomaniac on the
subject.
Col. aud Mrs. Rathbone, accompanied by
Miss Harris, sailed for Europe last fall and in
tandei to spend some time abroad educating
their children--two sons, the older 10 years of
age, and daughter aged Z. Col. Rathbone
and Miss Harris were in the box with Presi-
dent Lincoln at Ford's Theatre, in Washing
ton, on the memorable night in 1868 when
Booth assassnated the President. He was the
oDly gentleman besides Mr.. Lincoln in the
party. AS soon as Booth fred the fatal shot
Col. Rathbone comprehended the true sisua-
tion, and tried to seize the assassin, but Booth
struck at him with a dagger, inficting a
wound in his arm and side, and escaped. Col
Rathbone is AS years of age. Mrs. Rathbone
was sister of VIM n. Harris of Cleveland,
and Major Ira Harris of the navy.
A London despatch of Friday says COL Rsth-
bone has shown signs of melanchoiia for the
past two months On the night of the tragedy
he went to the room where his three children
and their nurse we're sleeping and asked to sec
his children. His wife appeared Immediately
afterward, and, ordering the maid to lock the
door, led her husband back to their bedroom.
Directly afterward shots were heard, followed
by cries for help. Mrs. Rathbone'ssster and a
servant rushed to the bedroom door, and, find-

To The Editor Of the Press;
In the PRESS of the oath inst, is long state
ment by the counsel of Rufus Fl. Waite, as
understand, the purpose of which is to afford
some sort of justification to the G overnor for
granting pardon to this man who has been
constant aud persistent violator of the Maine
Law for many years. Since the statement al
luded to contains my name in connection with
this matter, ask that my reioinder 10 it may
be admitted to your columns.
Since 1876. this Waite has been convicted
forty six times including three OF four convict
ions of his brother-in-law and his brother in
the same shop, Immediately after the last
prosecution OF Rufus The ground and the
chief one on which his pardon is asked for is
that he has the asthma and that the Jail is an
unsuitable place for him. To this affect, they
have the opinion of doctor, not the physician
OF the jail. Why not apply to DIR. Fost er, ons
oil our most respectable physicians, who in re-
ply to my question, said this man is no worse
now than he was when he entered the Jail, and
there is no reason to suppose that his dis
ease would be in any way improved by his re-
: lease" He is not confined to b cell, but has
the FREQ range of a broad, lofty coaridor, we'll
ventilated and warmed by steam, whose tenn
pesature is always suitable aud equable. No
pri7ate house in the city has more comiorta-
Portable atmosphere. DIR, Foster is now and
mas UeoO lor twenty years tno regular DnySl-
clan Of the jsil, employed by the County au-
thorities.
TITS Waite is not the only person convicted
as persistent vioator of law, who has EN-
ployed counsel 10 obtain pardon. Such peo-
Pile do not mind fine TOR liquor selling, they
say so, but they do not like the jail, and so pay
counsel very round fee for obtaining a par
don.
We work very hard TO convict these Offend
ers; we spend good deal OF time and money
30 protect our children and other peoples chill
dren from tho droadfal in haenoes of she whis-
key and beer shops, and when we get one OF
these men in tight place whom John Wesley
called "poisnoners generals, who drive the pee
pie to hell like Sheep we do not like il to
have the State step in and unto all our work.
When the Governor shall pardon notorious
and persistent robbers, house. breakers, and in
dendiaries because they have little difficulty
in breathing, l for one will cease to prot est
against the pardon of hardened, persistent liq-
uor sellers who support their families by de-
stroying the families of other people.
JOB T. SANFORD
The Portland daily press., 1883-12-31

BIDDEFoRD, Dec. 29.-This morning large
quantity of human blood and hair was found
near the corner of Summer and Birch streets,
tramp'ed into the snow giving evidence that
q struggle had during the night taken place
OF very grave character, and many believe
that murder was committed. A family in
that vicinity heard team drive up there
about 10 o'clock in the evening and not long
after groans were heard. Al little past 10 a
man considerably bruised called at house on
Prospect street, short distance from the
scene of the supposed crime and inquired the
way to Dayton, and afterward two men called
ata house on Hill street, evidently bewil.
dered, inauiring for Saco. Traces OF blood
could be followed several rods upon Summer
street. The police are retcent but it is said
that they have in their possession swcman's
hat picked up near the spot where the blood
was found. Physicians say blood enough was
visible to have caused the death of any human
being More than 800 persons have visited
the locality and there is great excitement over
the affair. The police have been out in var-
Gus directions but as yet have made no arrests.
