The Esnira Tragedy.

lby telegraph 10 tue Dispa'cn.l
ELMIRA, January 12.-William Menken,
charged with the murder of Katie Brad
cho6, was this morning taken TO view the
remains of his victim. He bore the ordeal
very stolidly, examined the corpse very
critically. and said: II don't think
Katie's face was as long as that" A sister
of the murdered girl arrived here this
morning in company with Detective Koehl-
Ter. When she was shown the body she
fell TO sObbing violently, and otherwise
seemed very much affected. She identified
very infinitely all the articles OF apparel
worn by the murdered girl. When the
officials were taking Menken back to his
cell they met the sister. MenkeD recog-
nized her, and most cordially said, How
do you do?" He seems bound TO show
that he takes the matter coolly. This MORN
ing the prisoner, in irons. was put in cir.
Gle with five other men, all of whom were
dressed very much like him. Witnesses
who had seen Menken in this city were
then admitted to the room one by one, and
they all picked the prisoner out as the man
they had seen.

The Charge Against Mr.. Hewitt
what is Said AT the State Depart

The Washington Star of yesterday says ::
4 good deal Of excitement was caused in
political eli cles to-day over dispatches
which involved Representative Hewitts
name in q curious transaction. twas said
that Mr.. Hewitt, after offering and getting
the House to pass a resolution in behalf Of
O'DoDnell, went to the British Minister
and assured him that it was offered only to
head off more obnoxious resolutions on
the same subject. and that it meant moth
ing. Whereupon Mr.. West telegraphed to
the home office that the resolution, by adj
mission OF its author, was mere bum
combe performance, and deserved to have
no weight.
Mr.. Hewitt is in New York to-day, and
the Star is unable therefore to ascertain
from him what ground there is, il any, for
the story. At the State Department both
Secretary Frelinghuysen and Assistant
Secretary DAVIS said they had no news on
the subject. The general opinion on the
street Is that ii MIR. Hewitt did go to the
Minister to explain his resolution he COM
mitted an act OF great political folly, and
that it will iniure, IL not destroy. his influ-
ence as pubic man. The story linked
with the above that Mr.. Hewitt, offered q
Republican member $1,000 il he would
only object to the introduction OF the reso-
luton undoubtedly springs from iocular
remark OF Mr.. Hewitt to that effect.
