A ROYAL ROASTING.

The American people are as
eager to read the details of that bac-
carat SANDER trial now going on in
the English courts as the ENGLISH
people themselves; whether from
the Anglo-maniac ambition to an
pear as well versed in English So
clal scandals as their brethren across
the sea among which they occur.

Once upon a time when y certain

the suggestion that such doom

pansion of heart and mind which
fits them for the reception of the

thought that prosperity had not yet
brought about either the sentiment
or the confidence required among
the people, to demand to the list OF
investments the addition of that in
intellectual treasure. He thinks the
time has come when he might tempt

arouse it with an appeal for its

ORATORIO

OF the Redemption TO-Nfght-P u bile
Rehearsal 1880 p. m.
An immense audience will be present
at the Hyperion tonight on the occasion of
the production of Gounod's sacred trilogy
"The Redemption" by the Gounod society.
The very notable array of soloists, in
Guiding Mrs. Jennie Patrick Walker,
soprano; Miss Emily Winant, contralto;
Mr.. Charles Herbert Clarke, tenor; Mr.
Gardner S. Lamson, bass; and Mr.. Myron
w. Whitney, bass, will at once attract
attention. With Mr.. Harry Rowe Shelley
at the vocation and the renowned Ger
mania band of Boston it would appear as
if the arrangements for brilliant success
were complete.
The rehearsal last night under Mr..
Agramonte gave assurance that the choral
forces would be worthy the occasion and
the admission price to the family circle
tonight has been placed at the very
reasonable price of fifty cents, thus max
ing it r'ssible for every one to hear this
notab4- work.
The public rehearsal at $50 this after
noon will draw another very large audi
ence, several hundred coming in from the
of the soloists, orchestra and chorus, will
be present. The admission to this will
be fifty cents; reserved seats, seventy-fve
cents.
Those who will attend these perform
ances are reminded that the ibrettos now
on sale at the music stores, contain all
the words of the oratorio with interesting
comments on the music and will be found
quite indispensable to an appreciation of
the oIatorio.

THE GRAHAM HEARING,
The Senate Committee Postpone the
Hearing of the Petition of General
Graham Until Next Week.


HARTFORD, Feb 26.-The committee,
consisting of Senators Seymour, Garvan
and Houllihan, appointed by the senate to
inquire into the discharge of General G. P.
Graham, met in the supreme court room
this afternoon. Attorney Frank E. Hyde,
acting as attorney for General Graham,
explained how the commandments of the G.
N. G. were appointed and how they should
be removed from Office Section 3,125,
Revised Statutes, provides that officers
can be removed only by action of the SEN
ate, although the governor may remove
said officers, and said removal may be
valid until further acted on by the senate,
The only court which can remove such Off
GERS is that body which appointed him.
and that is the senate.
No charges were made against General
Graham and no cause shown why he
should be renewed and consequently the
commander-in-chiefh had no power to re-
move him and If there was cause such re-
moval was only temporary until acted on
by the senate Unless the commandtr-in-
chief shall show some cause why General
Graham should have been removed it is
your duty, gentlemen, to reinstate him.
Until some cause is shown for the removal
it is not necessary for us to introduce a
defense. An appointment, that of Gen
eral Watson, came before yon when there
was no vacancy and. until there is a
vacancy no one can properly be appointed.
General Graham asks as q simple matter
of Justice that some definite cause be
shown why he was discharged and that the
governor be made to show such cause, if
any, by request of the committee
The committee then, voted Ito adjourn
until 5 p. NJ Tuesday to give Mr.. Hyde
time 10 prepare request to the adjutant
generals office, asking them to show why
General Graham was removed, which re-
quest will be signed by the committee, as
they intend to thoroughly investigate the
late military tToahlss.

HE EmprIRD THE SAFE.

Thomas Ackril Robs Philander
Ferry, His Employer, of $125 and
Departs SuddenIy-Not His First
Ofense-Captnred at a Late Hour
Last Night.
Another case of misplaced confidence
has come to light and the victim is Philan-
der Ferry, the well known Church street
baker. The amount taken was about $125.
Thomas G.. Ackrill, who has been Mr.. Fer
RVS trusted clerk for the past four or five
years, robbed his employer of that amount
yesterday and skipped the town for short
time. Ackrin was at the store about 2
o'clock in the afternoon when Mr.. Ferry
came in and asked him if he had been to
his dinner and was answered in the affirm
alive. Ackrill had his coat on and on 60
ing out said he would be back in a few
minutes. Mr.. Ferry suspected nothing and
went about his usual work, and soon his
son came in to see about purchase which
he wished to make, and the father went to
the safe to get the necessary money. He
was surprised to find the outer door
locked, as we'll as the inner drawer,
and the surprise developed into larger
proportions when the interior of the
money drawer showed as much of an emp
tiness as Mother Hubbard's cupboard.
The amount in the safe he figured to be
pretty near $125. Mr.. Perry soon went
over to make complaint to Chief Boil
mann, and Detective Brewer was put on
the criminals track.
Mr. Perry stated that his clerks dis
honesty was total surprise to him, and
was something he would have never antici-
pated. Ackriu had always been attentive
and interested in his business, and had at
times the whole control of it for periods
sometimes as long as three or four weeks.
A few days ago he heard reports of his
| drinking heavily, and when he told Ack-
rill of this was pleased to hear him deny
| them stoutly. Mr.,l,Perry himself never
saw any indications Of it, and was ready
to believe the clerks word in the matter.
Ackrill is a son-in-law of David R. Ben
ton of Orange street. He has wife and
two small children. He had a similar diff
iculty some years ago when manager OF
| the Dwight skating rink, but was told
everything would be made all right if he
would return, his abilities being valued sc
highly.
Mrs. Ackrill called upon Mr.. Ferry late
in the afternoon to see if the rumors were
true, and her feelings are easily imagined
when the truth of the situation was made
| only too clear.
Ackrill was apprehended by Chief Boil
| mann about half past II o'clock, last eve
ming, at the Union depot, and had just re-
| turned to town. He was taken to the
| police station and locked up for the time
| being Nearly all of the stolen money was
| recovered.
