NEW York, April 16sh.-The Herald says
George W. Conkling did not leavs the city
one week sgc, as his counsel believed he had.
He took his departure Saturday evening at
O'clock, taking the train on the New York
Central Railroad, en- route for Reno, New.
Conkiing was accompanied by Mrs. Uhler.
It seer1s Coukling expected TO get away on
the 9Th instant, the day on which counsel
thought he had left, but Mrs. Uhler proved
atumbling-5lock, for che delayed the de-
parsure from day TO day upon ore ground and
another, and to the last she protested against
being taken from the city. The scene where
the encounter between her brother and
lover took place appeared to have fascina-
ton for her, and she frequently, on one
pretext or another, visited the flats in which
Hayerstick was killed.
SECURING DELAY.
She would appear resigned and express her
Willingness to start by the evening train, but
as the time to make the final preparations for
starting approached, she would declare that
she was too i'll to undertake the journey, and
postpone her departure till next day. On
two occasions che left the house where she
has been residing with her maid since the
tragedy, and did not return until the next
day, passing the right at enc of the hotels.
Her brother was greatly depressed at these
repeated failures to get started for home. At

edly on the nsme of her dead lover, end de-
clari2g that she would not leave for the West
before seeing her children. Mr.. Conkliue's
COUNSEL, Coloael King, erauestly urged her
TO accompany her brother, and she was
finally prevailed to enter close carriage with
Conkling and gentleman who has been his
warn friend throughout the trouble, and the
carriage was driven to the Grand Central
depot. After getting aboard The train Mrs.
Uhler bscame almost bysterical, and cried
out that she would not go. At timeu force
became necessary to restrain her from leaving
the car.
EFFORTS TO SEE HER CHILDREN.
Despite her DISCRIMINATION to do SO, Mrs.
Uhler WAS unable % 9fast her little children
before going away with her brother, but she
certainly made desperate effort to accom-
plish her desires, for, accompanied by her
msid, on the 4th instant, she went to Leba.
non, Pa, where her husband and children
ara residing with Mr.. Uhlar's parents. Upon
ringing the bell of the Uhler mansion, the
door was opened By servant girl whe had
been in the employ of Mr.. and Mrs. Uhler
bafore their separation. The girl at once
recognized Mrs. Uhler, and acting probably
ployer, she shut the door in Mrs. Uhler's
face. The unfortunate woman became al
most frantic, and striding up and down the
piazza she gave vent to her anguish in heart
and threatening TO break down the door and
windows if she ere not allowed TO see her
children. No attention was paid to her cries
by those within the house, and finally her
maid succeeded in calming her.
SHE SEES HER CHILDREN WITH THEIR FATHER
Just before leaving the place, Mrs. Uhler
saw her little ones driving past with their
father. She held out her arms imploringly
to them, and cried out for them TO step but
either the father and children did not zee or
hear her, or pretended they did not, and they
were soon cut of sight of the heart-broken
mother, probably forever. It was with no
little effort tho maid was enabled to get her
mistress to leave the spot and come to the
city. Those who have been intimately assc-
cieted with Mrs. Uhler for the past week are
under the impression that tae poor woman's
mind hiss been unsettled by the shock she re-
ceivad the night Of the tragedy. and her suf-
ferings and remorse which have followed.
