cidedly of granger habits. One OF the men
was in an excited frame of mind, and i'm
mediately introduced himself by saying that
he was "the felcrthat telegraped to the po-
lice to look out for blind fiddler, and a
woman"
He then proceeded to inform the officers
that the "wom an" was his wife and that her
name was Mary Evans and the fddlers
VIM. Hamilton; that the fiddler and his wife
had 'loped and, as he had learned, had
started for Des MoineS He further ex-
planned that he was farmer and had a
home near Glenwood, Mo. His excitement
while telling his story scarcely knew bounds
and he swOre eternal vengeance upon the
fiddler when he caught him. He was i'm
mediately offered The assistance of the force
in the hunt although first informed that
requisitiOn papers from the Governor of
Missouri would be necessary before the run
aways could be taken back These papers
we're Immediately teleGraphed for and the

that Colonel Bliss in his position OF counsel
was influenced by political motives; but he
would not say so directly. One of the most
important corrections made by the witness
in regard TO Colonel Bliss testimony was in
regard to the charges made BY Colonel Bliss
agaias, }. B. Price. Mr.. Ker defended
Nr. Price and said that as his character

fishes the following: l take the opportunity
of announcing to my friends of the Demo
cratic party, in West Virginia that ! have
withdrawn from the contest for the nomi-
nation for State Auditor ON the Democratic
ticket. The reasons which impel me to this
step are that business engagements will not
permit me to canvass the State, and the
fear that it will impair the prospects OF
friends who are candidates for positions on
the State ticket,
return my sincere thanks to my many
friends in the State who have given me
hearty assurances Of support for the office
to which Iaspired, in convention and by
private letter, and will only say that the
ticket nominated by the Democracy at
Wheeling shall receive my hearty support,
and that | trust it will be elected by a
larger majority than ever before, in spite oi
