The New York Times is savage at the failure of the star-route jury to convict, and having heard threats of its prosecution for libel by Brady's and Dorsey's lawyers if it continued the warfare, declares: The Times does not acquiesce in the verdict and will continue its warfare. If this course should be unsatisfactory to Thomas J. Brady, Stephen W. Dorsey or any other star-route thief and they choose to attempt to vindicate themselves by libel suit, the Times will welcome the opportunity to do the Republican party and the country the grandest service of which it is capable, by proving in a Court of law that they are thieves and that it has told the truth in calling them such. The Times also says: The verdict is one that will comfort and encourage all who think it is no sin to steal from the Treasury of the United States. To the honest people of the nation it is a result unexpected and undesired. It is a grievous disappointment and a fresh revelation of the power of wealthy and unscrupulous graduates of the school of "practical politics," when confronted in the Courts at Washington by proofs of their villainy. She Hates a Bustle. CHICAGO, June 16. A young woman with a history was locked up at the Chicago avenue station last night. She was dressed in men's clothing and her disguise was the most deceiving the police had ever met with. She was arrested on the docks, where she mingled with the sailors without her sex being discovered by even her nearest associates for three years. She has acted as cook's mate aboard various lake vessels, always passing for a boy and mingling with the sailors as one of them. She would give no other name than Frank Chambers. She said she was born in Newark, O., seventeen years ago, and donned male attire the better to get along. She smoked with the ease of an old tar. Her conversation was plentiful interlarded with expressions characteristic of the sterner sex. "I care not how often they arrest me," she said, "I'll never wear women's clothes. I hate a bustle, and if I am not a man I am always going to dress as one." GAZETTE. JUNE 23, 1883. NO. 37 ENGINEER MELVILLE. A Letter to the Press Honored Down by Sensational Journalists. PHILADELPHIA (Pa.), June 2. Engineer Melville has carefully avoided writing any letters for publication as to the criticism of his course in connection with his family, and he would not have departed troon his course to write any at all had he not felt, as he says, that he was being "hounded down." The following, the first open letter on his domestic troubles, is made public today: OFFICE OF CHIEF ENGINEER. UNITED STATES NAVY YARD. LEAGUE ISLAND, JUNE 1, 1883. Editors of the Daily Herald, Reading, Pa. Heretofore I have avowed answering all attacks on my name and reputation, supposing that the courts alone would settle the question of family discord. Your paper, with others, without cause, apparently in ignorance, has attempted to hound me down, charging all sorts of rascality and meanness, when the evidence before the court showed that the head and front of my offending consisted in being a seafaring man who would not live with a drinking woman. Your main charge (issue of May 30th) is that "Engineer Melville's wife has been living on the charity of her friends." It is certainly strange that you should publish a statement of that kind in the face of the order of the court which allotted her $7.0 per month, and which has always been paid. It seems so singular to me that the press of the United States should so pervert the facts and distorting with disdain of my family. An American Opera. Dublin Irish Times. There being little in the way of graver news it will, perhaps, interest some of our readers to hear that we are soon to have on the London stage a veritable American opera. The work, which is called "Le Fili-busto," draws its inspiration from life in the wild West, the debatable land between the United States and Mexico. The beauties claimed for the opera are those of originality, melody, color, rhythm and rapid section. A specimen has been wired for publication. It is the song of Don Sancho's Three Cowboys. FIRST COWBOY I'm the howler from the prairies of the West; If you want to die with terror look at me. I'm chain lightning—if I can't may I be blessed. I'm the snatcher of the boundless peril. CHORUS—He's a killer and a hater, He's the great annihilator, He's the terror of the boundless Peril. SECOND COWBOY I'm the swinger from the upper Trail, I'm too frivolous in order and in gore, I can just move Palman rejoices on the rail. Than anyone who worked the job before. CHORUS—He's a shocker and a nooseer, He's the Great Frank Line abuser, He's the man who puts the sleeper on the rail. THIRD COWBOY I'm the double jawed hyena from the East, I'm the blazing bloody blizzard of the States; I'm the celebrated slagger, I'm the beast, I can snatch a man bald-headed while he waits. CHORUS—He's a double jawed hyena, He's the villain of the scene, He can match a man bald-headed while he waits. A Fearful Horror. A Pearful Horror. London, June 10 - A terrible calamity, involving the death of 178 children, occurred in Sunderland, County Durham, this evening. From details received it appears that an entertainment was given at Victoria Hall by a conjurer and was attended almost altogether by children, several thousand being in attendance. The accident occurred at the close of the performance. The body of the hall was entirely cleared of occupants, when some 1200 of the little ones came rushing down stairs from the gallery. At the top of the first flight of stairs was a door, which opened only twenty inches, and thus but one child at a time could get through. At this point, while the mass of children were pushing forward, one of them fell and was unable to rise, owing to others crowding. The result was that a great number were pushed down, trampled on and suffocated. The scene was terrible. No effort could stop the mad rush of the affrighted children. They came on pill-mell, though, strangely, without much shouting, and soon 178 were knocked down and suffocated to death by the others trampling on them. The most of the bodies, which were badly mangled from trampling, lay seven or eight deep. Many victims, not killed, had the clothing torn from their bodies, and this together with the bleeding bodies of the unfortunate, shows the terrible nature of the struggle. The ages of the 178 children known to have been killed, ranged from 4 to 14 years. The excitement in town when the news spread was very great. A large crowd rushed to the scene, until 20,000 persons surrounded the hall. The feeling was intense. The authorities ordered out the Sixty-eighth infantry to preserve order. The work of getting out the bodies was begun immediately. They were laid out in the hall and the parents of those killed were admitted to identify their children. There were heart-rending scenes while the identification was in progress. The mothers of dead children were constantly uttering piercing shrinks and many fainted on discovering the bodies of their little ones.

Jenkins, Jr., this morning killed Rev. J. Lane Borden, President of Mansfield College. Borden had seduced a young lady friend of Jenkins. Jenkins used a revolver and fired five or six shots. One of the shots took effect in Borden's leg, one in his heart and one in the forehead, just between the eyes. He lived about two hours, but never spoke. The greatest excitement prevails, but Jenkins has the sympathy of the community. Jenkins and his brother, C. E. Jenkins, who was present, surrendered to the Sheriff. The preliminary examination will be held on Monday. Jenkins is a man of 25 and was ordained as a minister at the last session of the Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. He is a son of the Hon. B. T. Jenkins of this place and has been preaching at Raibline station, on the New Orleans and Pacific road. B. T. Jenkins is a Trustee of the college. The Coroner's jury rendered a verdict that the deceased came to his death from a pistol shot fired by Benjamin T. Jenkins, Jr. They exonerated C. E. Jenkins.
