TRE QUINLANS ON TIE RACK Husband and Wife Subjected to
 a Rigid Examination. TIE MAN WEPT LIKE ACHILD He k4mfS That He Knows Hatch, the Con-

TIE MAN WEPT LIKE A CHILD
: JlNLAN'S INTERVIEW SENSATIONAL

Chicago, July 31.--That Mrs. Quinlan, the wife of the janiter who is supposed to know so much about the misdeeds of II. II. Hemes made a partial confession to the police this morning is almost certain, although Chief Badenoch and In- spector Fitzpatrick refuse to say wheth- 1T or not this was the case.
 At an early hour this morning the two principal investigators of the case gave the reporters the slip and instead of coming to the Central station, as is their daily custom. went to the Harrison Street station, where MT. and Mrs. Quinlan have been confined ever since they were suspected of knowing more than they cared to tell taking with them stenographer. They first devoted themselves to the man. About an hour was consumed in his examination, and when the interview was over it was no- ticed that the stenographer carried un- der his arm voluminous notes of the in- terVew.
 Chief Badenoch declared that nothing had transpired which he could give to the press without injuring the police status of the case lie admitted that Quinlan broke down completely and wept like a child but denied that he had
 
 either himself or Holmes in the various murders which have been laid at their doors. He was confronted With the new information given by Lawyer Capps in regard to the identity of the man Allan or Hatch, now in jail at Little Rock, but while admitting that he knew Hatch, which is in itself considered very im- portant by the police, he refused to ac- knowledge him either as an accompllce or friend.
 The interview with Mrs. Quinlan, which followed was sensational in the extreme, and the police are very reticent about it.
 Mrs Quinlan was very much affect ed" said Chief Badenoch.
 She not only wept throughout the whole Interview which I need not say was unusually severe, but she said: I call on God to witness that know noth- ing more of the murders than 1 have al- ready told If Pat says I know any thing more about 1t he simply lies, that's all.'"
 This remark was called out by the de- coy statement made to her that her hus- band had confessed everything.
 Attorney Capps was present at both interviews, but refused to say what had taken place. He says he will remain in to Little Rock to further look into the case of the man Allan.
 "We shall not go to Little Rock at all, said Inspector Fitzpatrick. We are going to bring Allen here if possible. No, we cannot bring him on a requisltion, as he is already confined on an offense of which he has been convicted, but think we can get him here all right on a parole"

ABOUT THE BOUNTY.
Comptroller Bowler Is Unshaken by Argument.
 A Threatened Flop.

Washington, July 31.-Senator Caffery, Representative Meyer, John Semmes. the latter counsel for the sugar bounty claimants of Louisiana, had an audience today with Comptroller Bowler of the treasury department regarding the un- paid sugar bounty for the fiscal year 1894. The three gentlemen repeated the arguments they had previously made, but the comptroller Insisted that he saw no reason to change the position pre- viously taken by him. It is said that Comptroller Bowler may, if he chooses reserve his ultimate decision one year, but it is not believed he will do so. It is thought his decision after the formal hearing next week will be rendered as speedily as is consistent with the im- portance of the case. Should it remain longer congress will be asked to amend the law under which he was appointed, so that his duties will be of a purely min- iSterial character.
 Secretary Carlisle has been informed by the Louisiana gentlemen that the con tlnued withholding of the money will re- suit in defeat of the democratic party in Louisiana, and that nothing can pre- vent the state from swinging into the republican column next year unless the money shall be paid within short period. It is feared by the Louisiana peo- ple if the money be not paid before the meeting of congress next winter bill will be introduced to repeal the law un- der which the bounty is to be paid
 Secretary Carlisle has changed the plans for his trip through the great lakes. Recommended by Mrs. Carlisle the secre- tary will leave Washington Friday and 20 direct to Chicago, where they will be joined by Mrs w. K. Carlisle and chil- dren. The party will board the light house tender Amaranth probably Satur- day, and make the tour of the lakes to Buffalo. The time consumed will be about thirty days.

THE CHASE OF RAILROAD BILL.
The Dogs Nose Him Out of Watermelon
 Patch--StI on the Trail.

Brewton, July S0.-Oelayed Specially T. J. Kenrick, Jackson, Moore and Pot ter, posse of our men, struck Railroad Bills track near Hammack, Ala, Mon day morning and trailed to within two miles of Brewton by o'clock yesterday afternoon. He was supposed to have been in Brewton last night. This morn ing a number of our men from Brewton Kirkland and Evergreen, with dogs from Speigners, Ala. joined the Kenrick party and struck Railroad Bill's trail two miles south of Kirkland, near Downing's tank in Padgett's field, where he had been eating watermelons and ground peas. The dogs ran him to Muder creek, and he waded the creek quite a distance. The dogs took up his trail on the east side of the creek and followed it, leaving the men behind, when they were three-fourths of a mile away.
 Railroad Bill shot twice at the dogs, which made the dogs run back to the men. They then trailed him through big swamp and supposed they had him surrounded, but found he had gone on through the swamp The hot weather has interferred with the dogs seriously. The dogs struck Railroad Bills trail again about sunset and trailed him un- till dark. The men will camp on his trail tonight. He is going towards Wild Fork, on Cedar creek, in the direction of Brooklyn and Andalusia. He has eighty five rounds of ammunition on his person. We may overtake him tomorrow.

 of Maryland. ONE BALLOT DID TIE WORK State Senator Thomas Hayes Was Deserted on
 the Roll Call,
HE CHARGES GoRMAN WITH DUPLICiTY
It May Be Pyrrhian Victory fer tho Silent Senator--The Platform Indorses the Administration, Especially Its
 Financial Policy.

Baltimore, July 9l.--Jchn r. Hurst, senior member of the weli-known Hop kins place dry gods firm of Hurst, Puf- nell & Co. was this afternoon nominated for governor by the democratic state convention on the first ballot Senator German and I. Fireman Itasin thereby scored q decisive victory over their op- ponents, the Cleveland democrats. The ticket was completed by the nomna- ton of Marion DeKalb Smith of Kent county to succeed himself as comptroller of the treasury and of State Senator Charles C. Crethers of Creit county for attorney-general.
 The surprise of the convention was the almost total desertion of the reassess- ment advocates, State Senator Thomas c. Hayes. He received but two votes on the roll call A stormy scene is said to have taken place between MT. Hayes and Senator German just before the con- vention met, which undoubtedly accounts for MT. Hayes defeat. It is creditably stated that MT. Hayes accused Mir. Cor man of base deceit and double dealing, and ended up his tirade by charging the senior senator with having sold him out.
