Boston. Jan. 29.-''Butler's book
was issued today. In the preface the gen
eral gives as one reason FORTS publication,
Ito correct much wrong done to myself
by prejudi led misrepresentation OF facts
and circumstance as TO my W acts in
the service of my country" Gen. Butler
asserts Salmon p. Chase sent a friend to
him at Fortress Monroe to solicit him to
accept the vice presidential nomination of
the Republican party in case Chase Sc
cured the first place, and that Simon
Cameron made a similar proposition on
behalf of Lincoln less than three weeks
after.
He gives his reason for a refusal Of
both the offers He maintains his posi-
ton taken in the controversy over the
conduct of the late Admiral Porter at
New Orleans. He declares the latter
acted untruthfully and villainously. He
also charges Porter and his subordinates
with a failure of the powder boat plan at
Fort Fisher. He brands as utterly false
the charge of Gen. w. f. Smith that
Grant was drunk before Petersburg aud
c~riticses Smith severely. He closes his
work IA summary of things done by him
and says in all military movements he
never met with disaster nor uselessly
sacrificed the lives of his men.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The attention
of Dewitt Warner, a member of congress
from New York, was today called to GER
tain articles il the London Times and
Daily Telegraph critcisiDg President
Harrison for communicating the Chilean
message to congress after having been in
formed by Minister Montt that Chile was
to tender an apology. The Times and
Telegraph base their article on a purport-
ed interview with Warner, cabled to Lon
don by the Dalziei agency, in which the
New York congressman stated that he
had 1T from reputable authority that
Montt, the Chillan minister, informed
Secretary Blaine and President Harrison,
Saturday last, that an apology would be
rendered by Chile"
The Dalziel dispatch further stated
Minister Montt saw President Harrison
personally on the matter, as he feared the
information regarding Chile's message
which he had previously given to Blaine
would not reach the president. That is
not true" said Warner, decisively, after
reading the cable dispatch alluding to
the purported interview. Il have given
out no such an interview as that and so
far as | have stated or heard the facts are
not as suggested, though, of course, [ do
not know what NAV have occurred. This

LONDON, Jan. eft no change occurs
in the political situation it is serious
enough to cause the ministers to recon
slider a decision that parliament shall be
dissolved in May. A majority of the
cabinet agreed at the last cabinet council
to hasten elections. A highly placed
ministerialist states this determination is
largely due to the official calculation based
on the best attainable date that the gen.
eral elections, if taken o will
give Gladstone a majority of
about sixty, including the Irish,
while a postment is certain to increase the
liberal majority and consolidate the liberal
ranks, at the same time weakening the
Unfonists. For among the unexpected
results the Rosendale election impending
a rupture between the Dissid ents and
Conservatives is the most important. The
ministers propose to devote the whole
session until easter to estimates. The
Irish local government bill will be intro
duced on the verge of the easter recess
and the second reading will be had i'm
medlately after the recess.
MInisterialists rely upon obstruction to
the measure to afford them a reasonable
excuse for appeal TO the country. About
100 members will not seek a re-clectIon.
Others, especially Conservatives, knowing
the ministerial plans, will not take resi-
dences for the season. The Conservative
rural conference, in imitation OF the
the recent Liberal conference,
proved a burlesaue of a popular
gathering after prolonged footing
among laborers, chaplains and agents,
collected at Ely to scratch the body of 2l0
Pseudo delegates, composed of local cleo
ton managers, Publicans and hired rus
tics, seduced by free railway tickets and
quarters at the hotels, a smoking concert,
with free beer, opened the conference.
Much speech making ensued, but no res
o~lutions were passed.

Hanging Too Good for Them

VIENNA, Jan. 29.-The trial of SchneI-
der and his wife who enticed eight beau
tiful young girls to their rooms where the
husband ravished them all while his wife
looked on, closed today. They we're both
sentenced to lie hanged.
When the public prosecution complet j
his arraignment of the couple the coun-
eel Tor the defense made an attempt 10
palIiste the horrible crimes charged
against his clients. Schneider, at tie
conclusion of the speech, broke d a
completely. He buried his face i'll IS
hands, sobbed aloud, and in a voice bTo..a
with emotion exclaimed: My wife led
me on. She planned it all These
words sobbed out by the prisoner. who is
a large and very powerful man, struck
those present as very comicai and there
was a burst of laughter throughout the
crowd.
During the speech of the counsel he
tried to excuse the woman tor any com
plicity in the iendish acts of her husband.
His words also greatly affected the woman
and she burst into a food of tears. This
weeping gained her as little sympathy
from the spectators as did the sobbiug of
her husband. Eyey the women present
showed their detesta;ion OF her BY loud
and continued Kissing. When the result
of the jury deliberations was announced
Mrs. Schneider rose to her feet and
stretching her arms out imploringly
towards her husband, cried in a piteous
voice: Now let my husband tell the
truth"
When the words copdemning them to
death were pronounced the " prisoners
when the soldiers touched them and Or
dered them to go back to their cells both
arose in a dazed manner and complied.
Frau Schneider will be the first woman
executed In this country since the year
1903 owing to the imperial repugnance to
capital punishment in the case of female
offenders.

VICTORY FOR ST. JOHN s.
TgIeharts Brilliant Playing Against
the Delaware Field Club.

the Delaware Field Club.
A whlrling streak of orange and black
stockings, white foot ball jersey and
shocky blonde hair darted over the brown
sod of Riyerview Park, Wilmington, yes
terday afternoon. In occasional pauses,
when the .whirling stopped and the col
ors unravelled before the confused eyes
of the spectators the streak was found to
be Berkeley Tglehart. left half back of
the st Johns College team, of Annap-
oils, ND. The dashing little player weighs
only 1873 pounds, bur 10 the amazed elev-
en- OF the Delaware Field Club he look
ed TO be as big as Sampson. He was
backed up by the steadiness and skill of
Captain Bays and the enthusiastic sup
port of the other st. Johns men, and
after pluckly struggle Delaware lower
ed its colors to Maryland by the score of
u TO 6.
At the commencement of the game,
Delaware having won the toss and play
ing from the north goal, wedge was
formed and Constable headed for the ST.
Johns territory. He had gone three
Yards when the John l. Sullivan pro-
portions of Burlingame doomed up be-
fore him, and with big "whopn Con-
stable was hurled to the ground
The spectators satisfied themselves
that no bones were broken and then FIX
ed their eyes upon Cause, who tried to
get around the st. Johns end, but was
stopped by Latimer After little more
skirmishing st. Johns got the ball and
little Iglehart gained eight yards by
leaping through every opening which
presented itself. The players lined up
and Iglehart gained eight more. Two
more rushes by Waller and Iglehari, and
a swift motion of Capt. Biays's foot sent
the ball flying back of the Delaware line,
but outside of the goal posts The oval
was brought back to the twenty-five yard
line, aud for five minutes Iglehart, Wal
Ter and Keller made steady gains for st.
Johns, and Iglehart plunged through
the Delaware men for a touchdown
Biays kicked goal and succession OF
sounds like Indian war whoops startled
the watches In the stands. 1t was exr
planned that the noise was caused by the
St, Johns men giving their college yell.
Once more the ball was brought back
TO the centre and the game was resumed,
amid cheers from the spectators. For q
time the struggle was close. but Iglehart
and other Annapolis men finally forced
the ball toward the Delaware goal, in
spite of stout resistance. One of the
finest plays of the game gave st. Johns
its second goal. Bays eluded all the
Delaware men in 20-yard run and tai
lied touchdown, from which he made q
successful kick.
By poor playing by st. Johns. Pratt.
