KINGSTON, n Y, Oct. 5.-As was ex-
pected, the city IS rapidly filling up with
people from all over the country who are
depoSltors in the three city savings banks.
Business is at standstill and crowds stand
all over the city discussing the wreck of
the Ulster county savings institution.
The Kingston savings bank and Roundout
savings bank have each posted notices on
their banking house doors notifying deposit
tors that the sixty DAYS notice required by
law must be given. Large crowds of de-
positOrS with bank books in hand stand in
front Of the institutions. II is said the
SaungcrtieS and New PeltZ saving banks
Will demand sixty da%s notice should there
be any indication OF ii run.
The robbery and wreck of the Ulster
county savings bank continues TO be the all
absorbing topic in the city and county.
While TO certain extent city depostors
and their friends have been somewhat
calmer, the depositors i'll the country towns

WASHINGTON, Oct 5-There are indica-

fore the fight for ;he speakerShip is really

narrowed down TO one between Mills and
Crisp. II is not because of any lack of up
probation of the Democratic qualities OF

about the reasons for which tina
speaker is TO be elected has brought u large
proportion of the Democratic members
around TO the advocacy of Mills election.
The tendency IS so strong that
some of the supporters Of other
candidates than Mills have endeavored
to stop the drift by suggesting
reasons of the opposition without asserting
them and one of these, though Il puerile
one, is that there was some sort of IN alliA
ance between eX-PreSident Cleveland and
Mills. Presently there VIII come from

The Chorus GIRLS Death.

LONDON, Oct. 5.-ConSiderable interest is
being taken in the echoes of the inquest Of
Saturday last on the body of Lydia Miller,
or Manlona, which was her stage name, a
| chorus girl of the Gaiety theater, who re-
Gently committed suicide by drinking half a
Saturday, it will be remembered, Lord
Charles Montague, u brother of the Duke
of Manchester, testified to having been on
very intimate terms with the deceased, and
to have been late in keeping an appoint
ment to lunch with her on the day OF her
death. The failure to keep the appoint
ment promptly is said to have greatly an
noyed the chorus girl.
Since the inquest mysterious illusions
have been made in the newspapers to a GER
tain high parsonage, understood to be
Prince Albert Victor, the eldest son Of the
Prince of Wales, who Is also said TO have
had intimate relations with the dead girl.
As in the case of the death of the Duke of
Bedford, who shot himself in Il fit of tenn
porary insanity on January l4th last and
whose death for a considerable period after
wards was said to be from natural causes,
attempts have been made by the coroner,
who is the same official who acted in the
case of the suicide of the Duke of Bedford,
to hush up the real facts in connection with
the death of the Gaiety girl, whose portrait
has been displayed among those of the fash
ionable beauties of the day.
This anxiety to conceal the facts in the
case Is said to be on account of the Gead ac-
tresseS' noble and royal protectors, but is
only serving to attract further attention to
the case. The coroner to-day still refuses
access to the dispositions taken, and it is
openly stated that members of the coroner's
jury We're called upon to sign blank paper
instead of the usual record of proceedings
The Star to-day commenting upon the
affairs says:
That the truth as to the mystery will
never be known, and that it is obvious that
another inquest has been hushed up without
good cause -

with Salvador Rodriguez, Salvadoran
charge d'affairs here, about the rumored
difficulties in Central America, he
said all reports received state that
everything is quiet, and there are no
probabilities of any difficulties
between Guatemala and Salvador which
counties are in the most perfect accord and
which 1t is to the interest of Ezeta and
Barilias to preserve, and those who are

Referring to Ayalas' death in Guatemala
he produced the Guatemalan official account
of his death, which showed it resulted from
an accident. He was shown the ex-
tract from Brannon's letter giving
an account of Ayalas' death
and laughed and said Brannon made a bid
for railway concession which the govern
ment had not accepted, as it had received
more favorable bid. that Brannon left Sal
vador with his own free will, vowing venge-
ance against Ezeta through the American
press, which he claimed he could control,
and his letter to the Scranton paper is part
of bis revenge.
