MRS. JAMES @. BLAINE, JR.
Said She VIII Wed the Surgeon Who Re-
Gently Treated Her


Gently Treated Her.
NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-A dispatch to
The Herald from Washington says:
Mrs. James g. Blaine, Jr., it is said,
is again to be married. In view of the
numerous publications of late regarding
the alleged efforts at reconciliation
between James G.. Blaine, Jr., and his
divorced wife, nee Miss Marie Nevins,
this statement will be read with consid-
erable interest.
If it be true that the young Mrs.
Blaine intends to be again married,
the story that Father Ducey came here
as an intereessor from her would be dis
proved. The story that she anticipates
another matrimonial step has been pret-
ty freely circulated among her intimate
friends here. The gentleman who is
said to have won her affections is the
surgeon who attended her through her
last severe illness.
If the reconciliation story is true, it
is said that the engagement with the
physician must have been broken quite
recently.
Mrs. Blaine's friends refer to the fact
that the gentleman to whom she was
credited with being engaged could sup
port wife with ease. James q. Blaine,
Jr., on the contrary, is several years
younger than his former wife. His sal
ary in the Pennsylvania railroad Office
is merely the one paid to an ordinary
clerk and scarcely sufficient to support
family.
A reporter called at the New York
hotel to see Mrs. James G. Blaine, Jr.,
but was told that she is an invalid, and
could not be seen.

LITTLE Rock, Dec. 20.-For the past

convicts suddenly manifested symptoms
of arsenic poisoning. Drs. Linthicum
and Montague Fink were summoned by
Captain Dudley and administered to the
wants Of the sick, but without avail.
-Four Of the convicts died and several
others remain in a critical state. No
clew as to the perpetrator Of the awful

IMMIGRATION.
Shall 1t Be Suspended for a
Year?
Congressional Committee In
vestigating.

Agents of the Lending Steamship Lines
Appear Before the Committee aud I'm.
part Some Valuable Information--One
Way of ouarantining Against Conta-
gious Diseases.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The agents of
the principal steamship lines appeared
before the joint committee on immi-
grafton Friday in connection with the
proposition of Senator Chandler to
suspend immigration. Among those
present were: S. c. Neal, counsel for
the International Navigation company;
j. C. Wright, second vice president of
the same line, and W. G.. Atkinson and
H. G.. Hillken, of the North German
Lloyds. The International company
controls the Inman, Red Star and
American lines of steamships.
Gustav H. Schwab, representing the
various TRANSATLANTIC steamship COM
panies, made general statement on be-
half of these companies.
When Mr.. Schwab, in his address,
suggested that the examination of i'm
migrants to the European agents of the
steamship companies, these agents be-
ing placed under heavy bonds, Senator
Hill asked how the United States could
enforce these penalties on this side of
the Atlantic when they were opera
tive on the other side. The United
States could have no jurisdiction over
the European agents.
Mr.. Schwab said that the steamship
companies were willing to be held re-
sponsible for their foreign agents.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Schwab's
address Senator PETER asked if the COM
panies would be willing to allow the
United States officers to assist in the ex-
animation of immigrants before leaving
Europe.
Mr.. Schwab stated that the compa-
MES would not only permit but welcome
such assistance and supervision by
United States agents. In saying this,
he represented all the continental lines,
but not the English lines. After Jan.
they proposed of their own motion to
discontinue carrying steerage passen-
gers without any reference to legisla-
ton.
Mr.. Hale asked if this discontinuance
would last through the spring and sum
mer months, when there is danger Of
cholera.
Mr.. Schwab said he was not prepared
to say how long,it would last.
Mr.. Hale interrogated Mr.. Schwab re-
garding the medical force which would
be necessary to establish a foreign quar-
antine service.
Mr.. Schwab believed that but two
physicians would be sufficient to con-
duct an examination of passengers be-
fore sailing.
In reply to further questions Mr..
Schwab said that his company would be
willing to make such increase of medi-
cal force as might be desired.
In discussing the question of estab-
fishing the quarantine in this country
instead of Europe, Mr.. Schwab said that
the only means of establishing such
quarantine would be ON board the steam
ships. ALI vessels carrying steerage
passengers should be detained for per-
iod of not exceeding five days. He
thought that under this system the cab
in passengers would not take passage,
but remain at home.

An Intelligent (?) jury.

CHICAGO. Dec. -Aremarkable jury
was summarily dealt with by Judge
Brentano Monday. The mother of nine
year-old Mabel Angel was suing Brown
& Company, contractors, for $25, 900
damages in causing the death of the
child. The jurors petitioned to have
whisky and cigars sent into the jury
room, and, receiving no response from
the court, decided to have some fun
with the judge. The result was YER
dict finding the charge of negligence
true, and awarding the plaintiff one
cent damages. Judge Brentano instant
ly set aside the verdict, administered \
terrific tongue-lashing to the jurors, di
missed them in disgrace and fined the
nine chief culprits to an amount equal
to their fees.

BRUTAL OUTRAGE.
A Young Girl Assaulted by an UnInowp
Villain.


Villain.
COLUMBUS, o., Dec. 20.-The boldest
as well as the most brutal crime that
has disgraced the history of the city,
was enacted yesterday at noon. The
residence of Mr.. NJ. R. Jones, 246 South
Third street. was the scene of the out
rage. For some time Mary Donaldson,
a girl sixteen years old, has been max.
ing her home with Mr.. and Mrs. Jones
She has been an invalid for nearly three
months, being confined to her bed over
half of that time. While lying in bed
this noon man entered the room by
the doorway from the hall. She
dreamed of no harm, because she
thought it was a friend, possibly he1
pastor. The fellow, however, locked
the door behipj him, sprang quickly To
the second door in the room, locked it.
and then pulled the shutters close.
Miss Donaldson was too frightened to
scream for help. The fellow then went
to the bedside, picked up pillow case
that lay near, and making bandage of
it tied it around her head, closing the
jaws so firmly that she could not utter
sound. He then took another piece
of cloth and blinded her eyes. Then he
began to tear clothing from her person
and she became unconscious, when the
brute accomplished his fiendish purpose.
How long she lay in this senseless con-
dition there is no telling, but after a
time Mrs. Jones started for Miss Don
aldson's room and to her astonishment
she found the door locked. After q
time the door was forced open and Miss
Donaldson was found lying on the bed
in nude condition, and to all appear
ances dead. Help was called and after
long efforts the girl was restored to con-
seriousness, when she told what she
knew of the outrage. She could give
no description Of the villain. Miss
Donaldson is in very critical condi-
ti0n

Dana Appointed.
New YORK, Dec. 2O.-The Herald
Tuesday morning, following up its ed
itorial of Monday, in which it recon-
mended the appointment of Charles A.
Dana to England, said:
The mission to England is too import
ant to be given to a mere politician or
bestowed as a reward upon any party
worker without qualifications for the
duties. 1t is high position, which calls
for representative of the first rank-a
man well known for craftsmanship,
knowledge of public affairs and unim-
peachable character. No Democrat
combines these qualities in a greater de-
gree than Mr.. Charles A. Dana. More
over, he has rendered the party invalu-
able service. He can not fail to render
the country invaluable services at the
court of st. James. His appointment
would reflect credit upon both the adj
ministration of Mr.. Cleveland and the
nation. Make Mr.. Dana our next min
lister to England.

ing this fact, there are many friends of
the late millionaire who insist that he
had evolved gigantic scheme for the

death coming suddenly made it impos-

his scheme so that it could be fittingly
and legally mentioned in the will. The

they intend to carry out the scheme by

HERR MOST CoWHlDED.
The Lady Friend of Anarchist Bergman
Does the Job.

Docs the JOB.
NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-Emma' Gold
man, the friend of Bergman, the an
archist, who shot H. G. Frick, cow
hided John Most Sunday night, as he
was about to begin his lecture to the
German and Hebrew anarchist groups
in Odd Fellows hall. Most, it is said,
attacked Miss Goldman in his paper.
The quarrel is Of long standing and has
assumed increased bitterness since the
shooting of Frick, which Most dis
countenanced. The woman, together
with wing of the anarchist organiza-
ton, holds that Bergman is hero and
split has followed. The affair caused
considerable excitement and is likely to
develop further trouble.
