Indignant Citizens of Westchester County
 Punish an Elopcr.
 NORTH SALEM, N. Y., Jan. 21.-In August last this town was very much agitated over an elopement. There had been great deal of scandalous talk floating about the place in reference to the pair before the elopement took place, and threats of tarring and feath- ering were freely made. The man has a family of two grown up daughters and son.
 Nothing more was seen or heard of the couple until Tuesday last, when they were seen together on a Harlem railroad train. On the arrival of the train at Purdys station the man got out and the woman went on to Brewster's, where she alighted and went to a hotel. She was soon joined by her compan- ion, who hired a sleigh and drove to the hotel. On Wednesday they drove to North Salem and went directly to the house of the mans wife, to the great astonishment of the neighbors
 On Thursday night raiding party was or ganized and the male offender was taken from the house, tarred and feathered and or dered to get out of town immediately. The woman, whose husband lives in the town, was also reprehended, and was told that unless she left also she, too, would be tarred and feathered In the interval between the elope- ment and the return of the recreant couple the woman's husband obtained an absolute divorce and married a young girl, with whom he is now living happily.

Brown, of Norristown, loaned at various times $50, 900, upon representations that Mrs. Hendricks had fortune of $5OO,OOC locked up in the hands of an agent ill New York. Mrs. Hendricks was not at home and her husband and son say they know nothing of herswhereabouts, further than that she went away saying that she could not bear to see her things sold. Both the husband and son say that the disclosures relative to Mrs. Hen dricks financial transactions were a great surprise to them, and that they had known absolutely nothing of her affairs.
 A number of additional creditors of Mrs Hendricks were found here yesterday. Among them is Miss Kaufmann, who has been Mrs. Hendricks hairdresser for over five years, and who has loaned her a large amount of money. A Mrs. Touch loaned her $500, and Jules Will lens, an importer of faces, holds her note for e5,OOO. Some of the creditors retain conf dence in Mrs. Hendricks and believe that she will yet return and liquidate her debt.

THE DUTY ON CARPET WOOLS.
Men in the Business Discuss Protection

Men in the Business Discuss Protection
 and Free Trade.
 BOSTON, Jan. 21.-The Commercial Bulle- tin gives to-day a special report on carpet wools and on the adyisability of removing the existing duty on that grade of fleeces. The opinions published are in letters from the largest carpet manufacturers in the country, the leading wool growers, including the presi- dent of the National association and the pres ident of the local associations ill that part ot the country where carpet wools are grown; the leading blanket, hosiery and woolen man ufacturers; the leading importers in Boston, New York and Philadelphia; the two recog- nized wool statisticians, and the chief dealers in Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago.
 From the replies it may be said that free carpet wool would be favored by the carpet and blanket manufacturers, the government statisticians, strong minority of the wool growers west and east of the Mississippi, practically the whole of the importers many of the large woolen manufacturers, and by many of the leading dealers in Boston. A duty on carpet wool is favored by the Philadelphia wool trade en masse, by dealers in the interior markets and by most of the wool grOWers

IT IS NOT A MONOPOLY.
So Says Dr. NOrvin Green of the Western
 Union Telegraph Company.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-Dr. Norv!n Green, president of the Western Union Telegraph company, addressed the senate postofice com mittee yesterday in opposition to the govern mental telegraph bills. He asserted that the Western Union was no more of monopoly than any great commercial business, and ii- sisted that if the government must take tho telegraph it should take existing properties, as no private enterprise could compete with the United States treasury.
 He was told that petition bearing 5OO, ,OOO signatures was to he sent to congress asking the establishment of lines in opposition to ex- isting companies These petitions were signed n accordance with an absolute command, emanating from headquarters and predicated OH animus and spite and bitterness toward one man with whom MT. Powderly had quarreled about another matter altogether.
 MT. Gardiner G. Hubbard addressed the committee in favor of the postal telegraph system proposed in the bill introduced by Seratcr Dawes. He gave it as his opinion that of the SS6, ,O0O,O 900 of capital of the Wes- tern Union about SS 900, GOO or s10, 900, 900 had been paid in cash by the stockholders, and probably as much more by stockholders of other telegraph companies which had become bankrupt and had then been bought up by the Western Union, and that the rest of it had been taken rom the puDllc Ill the shape or telegraph tolls
 Dr. Green had stated that the ;business aris- tug from family and social telegraping was very little in America-only per cent. of ths whole business-and that the telegraph was much more speedy, safe and correct here than abroad. But it was found that, although the telegraph was not so correct and speedy ill delivery abroad, yet it was used there by the people, while here it was not; and this was one of the great differences between a telegraph company working for the interests ot business men and telegraph operated by the government for the benefit of the people.

Arriving at the hotel Mir. O'Brien appeared on the balcony and addressed the people. He rejoiced, he said that in spite of Chief Secretary Balfour the Irish people were stronger than ever, and though the English were slow in joining them, they would be slow in deserting them after they had joined The Irish would not resort to outrage, but would follow Mr. Parnell and Mr. Gladstone, trusting in the democracy of Great Britain to make Ireland nation.

IT WAS PRIVATE
SECRETARY BAYARD EXPOSES SOME 1 NEWSPAPER YARNS.
The Presidents Offering to Pope Leo Was Not Sent by a Special Envoy, and the American Legation Did Not Boycott Cardinal Gibbons Messenger.

 American Legation Did Not Boycott
 Cardinal Gibbons Messenger.
 BALTIMORE, Jan 21.-The Sun prints to day the following special dispatch from Washington
 Secretary Bayard was shown the dispatch purporting to come from London concerning the alleged envoy of the president to the pope, his failure to present himself at the Vatican, and that he had been boycotted by members of the American legation at Rome on purely personal grounds ever since his ar rival in that city. When Secretary Bayard had finished reading the dispatch he said:
 ''It is all rubbish. The president sent no envoy to the pope. He could not do so The only government in Italy with which this country has political relations is the govern ment of King Humbert. The president sent his gift as a private individual. did not even know he had sent it until I saw the fact stated in the newspapers. understand it was sent through Cardinal Gibbons, who selected the person to whom he intrusted it's delivery in Rome. The state department was in no way concerned in the matter nor has any person been authorized to act as the presidents rep resentative at the Vatican
 Secretary Bayard was much amused Try the story about boycotting the gentleman who was credited with being the presidents envoy by the American legation
 "The American legation" said he, ''con- sists of one person, MT. Charles Dougherty, who is now in this country on leave, and con- sequently could not possibly have boycotted anybody. Judge Stallo, the American min- ister at Rome, is a gentleman of quiet tastes, who spends most of his time at his books and goes but little into society. He has been criticised for this by members of the Amer ican colony, accustomed to the lavish display of the former minister, the young millionaire, Astor, of New York. Efforts have been made to misrepresent Judge Stallo ill every possible way because he would not and could not en- certain these people as they wished, being 9 man of limited means. The ridicuously false stories about the presidents so called envoy are probably part of the same game to dis credit the administration and put it in false position, and it is quite likely proceeded from the same source."
