WASHINGTON, June l2.-It is a fact that
is beginning TO cause considerable comment
here that while General Logan has been
warmly congratulated by his fellow Scna-
tors and by prominent Union soldiers, he
has not as far as can be discovered had
any words Of grace from members of the
administration. President Arthur tele-
graphed to Btaine congratulations that
could scarcely be said to congratulate, but
no one has heard that he or any Of his near
official friends have done even somuch as
that to Logan. Ask anyone the reason and
he answers that the administration look
upon Logan as having played the traitor
and that they are not vet enthusiastic
enough for the grand old party to forget his

4 Woman Who says She Committed u
Murder.
PIrr<BuRGH, June l2-On the 18th Of
last Nav the Coroner held an inquest on
the body of an unknown female infant child
which was found in the MonOngahela river
near the bridge over Turtle creek, close by
BcsSemer Station. The Coroner ordered Il
post mOrtem examination to be held, which
was done. On the 5th Of June the inquest
was resumed and when the doctors were
called to testify they stated that tho child
had died before being put into the river and
the Jury rendered verdict that the child
died of natural causes before being put in
the river Nothing was heard of the case
until Yesterday evening when the mother OF
the child was found in Braddock. She was
reported at Squire J. H. Hughes office as
having said that the child was not dead
when put in the river, and that 1t
was alive for she put it in her
self Accordingly, an information was made
against Iona Chindosch, the mother of the
child, for murder She is q Hungarian
and can speak very little English. A man
named Androseh, who is in some way aSsoci
arrested on the charge of being accessory to
the murder The two had hearing before
Squire Hughes this morning and in default
| of bail were sent to the county Jail to await
| trial at court The doctors who made the
! post mOrtem examination still maintain
| that the child was certainly dead before it
was put in the river, and say besides that
| there were no marks of violence on II.
| Should this tnrn out TO be the case the
| charges against these people may not be SO
| bad. In the light Of the fact that the mother
of the child, Mrs ChindoSch, cannot speak
very much English, those who believe they
understood her to say that she put the child
in the river when alive, might have been
mistaken.
