TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT.
Democrats Resident i'm the Territories
Call ON the President.

WASHINGTON, April 11.-A COM
mittee appointed at meeting OF
representative Democrats of the Ter
ritories. waited on the President to-
day and presented a series of reso]u-
tions earnestly requesting him at his
earliest convenience to look
into the political and admins
trative condition of the Territories.
The resolutions set forth that the peo-
pie of the Territories are not we'll
governed and the President is re-
quested to afford relief by placing
good men, citizens respectively
Of the Territories, in office. It is
said by some of the interested Demo-
Gratis that the rules of
choosing Governors from ac-
tual citizens will be adhered to in
every case, but in the selection ct
judiciary, customs and revenue and
land office appointments, the field
will not tie restricted for such posi-
tions. Citizens of the States as we'll
as Territories will be deemed eligible.

An Experimental Cattle Shipment.

CHICAGO, April ia drove Of
cattle from Walla Walla, w. T., ar
rived at the stock yards yesterday:
There were $50 in the drove, and
they averaged a trifle over 1924
pounds. The train was started from
Walla Walla on the 30th of March,
and reached Chicago on the 10th of
April, being eleven days on the road; a
They were rallied from 1900 to $500
miles, and were unloaded and rested
five times. The owners said they
were satisfied with the venture. The
only mistake was that the cattle
were rather larger and older than
was needed for trade in Chicago.
Although no great amount of profit
was realized, there was no great loss,
and as an experimental shipment,
taken altogether, it was a success.
The animals were carried over four
great railways, and the mortality was
only one animal. The cattle were
bought for the dressed beef trade

When se 1aLof Chaffee left the
house at 1890 this morning, he re-
marked that the pleasant weather
has not frightened Gen. Grant as
anticipated. His greatest regret,
when viewing the inevitable; is that
he is obliged to leave his family and
lifelong frie ends, and that the crown
ing work of his life, his war history,
will be left in an unfinished state.
Otherwise he feels his life-work and
mission fulfilled and he is prepared
to leave. At. 11:3O DR.. Shrady re-
turned. He said tonight he would
not leave the general too long alone.
Doctors Barker and Douglas would
come at 2 p. m., at which time the
Saturday consultation will take
place.

RESUME OF THE DAY.
Once during the day the General
arose from his chair and walked
firmly across his room and returned
without evidence of weakness, ex-
cept limp, which resulted from the
injury to the Generals limb. Later
in the day the General again left his
chair, walked into the hall and passed
along its entire length to Mrs.
Grants room. which is at the
extreme rear of the house. Having
reached the apartment the General
sat down in a chair and remained
some minutes, conversing briefly in
response to sallies upon his activity.
Then he returned unaided to the sick
room where he resumed his chair
without evident exhaustion. The
Generals ear is acute and he fire.
quently interjects remarks that prove
that he has been an intelligent and
appreciative Listener to the talk 60
ing on about him. A few days since
Gen. Grant received from the West
a remittance of 600 and interest for
several years. 1t came from q man
who lad borrowed the money from
Gen. Grant years ago and whom the
General believed to be dead.

FATHER BUTLER'S FLIGHT.
NOTHING PET HEARD FROM THE RUN
AWAY PRIEST.

Inquiries in DIOrrist0wO Bring No InfOrma-
ti0n Concerning Him.-AIiss Brady's
Family Still Ignorant of~eIer Where
abouts-Latest Gossip About the Affair.
The announcement in the TATTLER of
last Sunday morning, that Rev. Father.
Butler of st. Bridget's parish, had eloped
with Miss Mary Ellen Brady, of Jersey
Avenue, aroused widespread interest in
church circles, of every denomination
throughout the city. While there was no
disposition manifest anywhere to dispute
the TATTLER's facts, the public shared with
ourselves doubts Of the truth of the sus-
picion that the couple had indeed gone
away together. The discoveries made at
Easton, Penn, by an enterprising reporter
dispelled all reasonable doubts, and the
TATrLER is able to say positively this morn
ing that the young couple who attracted so
much attention at the United States Hotel
in that city, were no other than Rev.
Father Butler and Miss Brady. A portrait
of Father Butler, from which the picture
of BIN chat appears in this mornings
TATtf wac taken, was sent to Easton,
Penn. aL6d there identified by the clerk as
the guest who registered as Thomas
Boutillier. Fath6fBdt it is. noticeable,
made but very feeble attempt to disguise
his name on the hotel register Boutillier
is not very far from q French rendition of
the English name of Butler, while Thomas
is his given name Curiosity, has been
piqued, however, to know what became of
the sixteen bottles of beer ordered to the
apartments of the runaway couple. Six
teen bottles of beer represent thirty-two
ordinary glasses. Miss Brady probably
knew nothing OF the taste of beer up to the
time that she left home, and it is not pos
sible that she dispatched her half of it.
Gin fact" said friend of the family
day or two ago, & she had been always at
home, under the eye of parents or guardians
most. She received no gentlemen at
all. She was unsophisticated, perfectly
untutored in the ways of the world, and
the attention of young priest was fiat
terry that easily captivated her. The mere
fact that her house was not in Fathnr But
lers parish, but in st. Mary's, should not
have drawn attention to his visits, and
probably such comment as was aroused in
the neighborhood was due to the frequency
of his calls. Miss Brady's father was the
personal friend Of mos of the priests in
the city. His business, that of an under
taker, brought him necessarily into per-
sonal relations with them. They all liked
him, and he liked them. If any who had
known him here visited town, they would
never think of going away without calling
to see Mike Brady; while on the other
hand, he was fond of sending the priests,
unostentatiously, little gifts and remem-
ORANGES. He always sent them, however,
without his name, and it is likely that few
of the Fathers whom he thus remembered
knew that he was the donor. So the mere
fact of priest going out of his parish to
visit the Bradys could have no significance
whatever"

She is not pretty, but she has an intelligent
ana attractiye fsce. The scars, of which
so much has been said, DO pst disfgure her
countenance noticeably; and casual
glance at her face would not discover them
She has large grey eyes, and small and reg
ular features, and wears her hair in bangs
over her forehead. Hey family feel keenly
the notoriety which she has brought npon
them. SO much so that it is said her
sisters refuse to 60 to school, and one or
more of them is said to have donned
mourning, as though she had gone to her
grave. The feeling in the parish is very
bitter against Father Butler, but only pity
is felt and expressed for the inexperienced
girl he has taken With him.
A reporter for the TATTLER visited Nor
ristown on Friday afternoon, for the pur-
pose of ascertalning definitely whether or
not Father Butler had been there or sent
any explanation of his failure to put in an
appearance at the Church of the Assump-
ton there. Being unaeaaaipted with the
locality of the church, the reporter made
inquiry of several parties. The second man
directed him in Numerically opposite

The family of President DATE, of the

Beach all Summer. Before going they
notified the police that their house at 58S
Jersey avenue, would be vacant, and in
structed them to keep an eye on it.
Patrolman Smith had supervision of the
vacant houses, but early in the week he
saw Mr. DATES little children playing in

that the family had come home to stay,
relaxed his vigilance. AS matter of fact,
Mr.. DATE and his wife were home only to
see how the carpenters, who were putting
the house in order for the Winter, were
progre ssing with their work. and returned
at once to the seaside. Yesterday after
noon Mrs. Stevens, who resides across the
street saw man walk up the stoop of Mis-
Kline's house, No. $50 Jersey avenue, and
drop down behind gate that opens into
an alleyway between Mrs. Kline's and Presi-
dent Datz's houses The man with q con-
federate forced the rear kitchen door, and
after entering locked and chained the
front hall and basement doors, SO as to be
secluded while they were at work. Then
they went through the house gathering
what they could find. When they went
away they took handsome silver tea set, q
black silk dress and suit of gentlemens
clothing. In the evening Albert DATE, the
Commissioners brother, reported the mat
ter to the police, and Sergeant Smith and
Officer Hutton were put upon the case.
