thirty-three years Oh entered the East
Twent=second street police STATEN accom-
panied by gentlemsa somewhat older, who
was apparently in delicate health. Both
were very much excited, the lady, however,
being ealmer than her companion. She
spoke 10 the Sergeant on duty, and asked
for Desectye Mccarthy. He Was sent for,
and on entering the house addressed her as
Mrs. Dunham. She at once said to him :
my husband has mn away with this gentle
mans wife, and We want them found. The
gentleman Was then introduced as
Mr.. Charies Mekelvie, druggist OF
Garden CITY. and a brother-in-law Of
Mrs. Durham. The Dunhams lived in
a handsome brown-stone house at No.
24O West Fifty first street, and were appar-
emily verv happy and con'ented until about
sx months ago A short time ago he be-
gan 10 absent himself from home on the
plea of business. This aroused the sus
picions Of his wife, who called upon De
ucufe mCNdrtuy huu nducsarx niu W
watch her husbands movements. Nothing
apparently came from this, and matters
went on as usual until last Monday, when
Durham. afier an absence of day or two,
returned home and, packing his trunk, dis
appeared. On the same day Mrs. Kelvie
also left home. - =
On Wednesday Mr. McKelvie came to the
city, and on visiting Mrs. Dunham and
learning Of Dunhams disappeaanee be
came convinced that the couple had eloped.
Dunham's trunk is said to have been traced
to the St. George Hotel, but j. was stated
there last night that this was incorrect
Mrs. Durham 1eft the city yesterday, taking
her two little girls with her. At her hoase

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Mr Hale offered
a resolution in the Senate directing the
Committee on tho Expenditures of Public
Money to investigate the recent defalcations
of discussing officers in all Of the depart
ments in Washingtrn and the alleged fraud
on the government By means Of false
vouchers in the Navy Department The
Senator explained that the investigation
would extend into all the departments, and
was designed to find out whether there
are sufficient safeguards in departmental
purchases in Washington, An evil un-
doubtedly existed which ought to be cor
rected. Mr. Ingalls, said there must be
some radical defect in the system of keeping
departmental accounts which permitted pc
cuiations and Interpretations OF public
funds to 90 undetected for years. He trnst-
ed the investigation would be broad and
thorough enough to find out all the defects
and suggest etfectual remedies. Mr.. Hale
said such an inquiry would be e nbraeed M
der the resolution, which was then adopted.
