SoME or THE CAUSES OF DEgEAT. -
The Washington Star Of last evening
gives some Of the causes which may
be attributed to Mr.. Blaine's defeat.
The Star says ct is no Longer q Sc
cret that one cause Of Mr.. Blaine's de
feat ia New York State was the jeal-
ousy and lack Of cooperation between
the state and national committees and
the bed blood that was stirred up by
these differences among tbs active
politicians Of the party. Now that
the election is over this bitter feeling
il coming to the surface, John |.
Davenport, for instance, in letter to
the New York Herald to-day, openly
accuses Mr.. EIkins Of being "constitu-
tionally so lacking 10 ability and SO
deficient in executive capacity that
serious blunders we're unaypidably
committed. Il is pretty well anthem
ticated that Mr.. Blaine one called the
national committee puck of fools, ;
and he may have had some ground
for SO tart as expression"

JAMAICA, L. l., July 81. Surrogate
Townsend fled q decision to-day in q
contest which has attracted widespread
attention. The story is a pathetic one Of
love and death, and the mandate OF the
law has prevented the carrying out Of the
last wishes of one of the principals in the
story. Id the year 1876 Gardiner q. VOL
cott wealthy young man whose family
has large estate in Astoria, met and fell
in love with Nina Varian, pretty actress.
He took her to Europe, and on the I'd Of
October in that year they were married in
Paris. The young wife's health began TO fail
a year or two later, and in 1880, thinking
she was about to die, desired to see the land
of her birth once more. The young couple
sailed on September II, 1880, from Liver
pool, on the steamer Abyssinia for New
York; but when the vessel was but few
days out the wife died. The body was kept
and on the steamers arrival was taken to
Greendale Cemetery, at Meadville, Pa,
where it was inferred Here the grief
stricken husband erected monument with
the inscription nina Varian Wolcott"
The husband then went to Long Island City
to live. Grief for the loss of his wife so
affected his already poor health that he died
November 2, 1881. His body was placed
in the family plot at Greenwood. The fol
lowing were parts Of the provisions Of

1t is my special command that my re-
mains be buried beside those Of my darling
Nina in Greendale Cemetery in lot par
tally owned by Rev. A. A. hvermore,
Meadville, Pa. Any expense in carrying
out this will shall be paid from my estate.
In compliance with these provisions the
executors Mr.. William Z. Leavitt and Mr..
Edward f. Williams, recently applied to
Surro gate Townsend 10 allow them the nee
essary money to remove the body Of Mr..
Woleott to Meadville. In opposition to the
application come counsel for the dead mans
brother, Frederick A. Woleott, and his sis
ters, Miss Alice Wolcott and Mrs. Eliza
beth II. Merchant, who claimed that Nina
Varian never was the wife Of the dead man.
To the contrary an affidavit BY the Rev. A.
A. Livernore was offered by the executors.
Mrs. Charlotte Varian, the mother Of Nina,
died in the Hahnemsnn Hospital in New
York last April. She had only Q Life inter
est in Woleott's property. In compliance
with the Surrogates decision the young
husbands remains must lie in Greenwood
