Stationery and office expenses, $2,919,133 81 We have had, Mr. Speaker. several over-expenditures in the present year, some of them pretty large, especially that in connection with our public institutions maintenance. It was owing to the large increase among that portion of our people who are becoming insane that that in- creased expenditure was incurred. We were obliged to lease a building in the town of Orillia, and we were obliged to remove our idiots from Hamilton Asylum to the number of 70 in order to increase the room for insane patients at Hamilton. This was something over which the Government had no control, and the result has been that not only at Hamilton, but at Orillia, there has been increased expenditure. ASSETS OF THE PBOVINOE.

Wood, Young-53. Finding of the Bodies- Horrid Sights. A late Milwaukee telegram says : The body supposed to be Miss Chalis was found in the ruins of the Newhall House this forenocn charred beyond recognition. The news of the finding of the body attracted thousands to the scene. Afterwards two more bodies. charred beyond identification, and part of a human trunk were found. It is now settled that the loss of life will not be below seventy. The action of the Council caused such general condemnati that another meeting is called for t afternoon to employ a large force and get electrical appliances for working at night. W A. Hall died this morning. He jumped from the fifth storey. Six bodies Were buried this morning, there being a large attendance. 0! two coats found in the ruins of the hotel, one belonged to a guest who escaped. There is nothing left to tell to whom the other coat belonged. The photograph of a young man was found. On its back was written Mr. E. Leland. The photograph was taken 1n New York. A. memorandum book, a large number of bundles and business papers were also unearthed. The workmen have now dug in about sixteen feet from the sidewalk. Up to this evening five additional bodies have been found in the ruins of the New- hall House. As the men worked into and opened up the ruins odors of burned flesh became more apparent, and there is scarcely room to doubt that by to-morrow night a scene willbe presented before which the most stout heart will quail. A human foot has been found partially burned, with no traces of the body. Two little heaps of remains found near personal effects recognized as belonging to Robert Howieand David Martel, Wisconsin Cen- tral conductors, leave little doubt that both perished. The body indentified in the morgue is not Miss Uhellis, but Mrs. L. W. Brown, of Alleghney, Pa. The last body found was recognized as Emma Hagar, a domestic. James H. Earnest, whose name appears among the missing, was a prominent Democratic politician of Southwestern Wisconsin. A THRILLle BEOITAL. S. A. Dixon, 0: Chicago, who occupied a room in Michigan street front, gives a thrilling account of the fire. He was awakened by the crashing of some glass, and opened the door to ascertain the cause. The hall was filled with an impenetrable volume of smoke, which immediately filled his room, forcing him to close the door. He then gathered up his clothes and went into the hall, groping about until he found the way leading to the bank building. Con- tinuing, he s_ai : . “I looked back upon the Newhall, a dark-looking mass of smoke enveloping it, with now and then lurid gleams lighting up the opaque cloud. The scene was a fright- ful one. After a moment’s hesitation I decided to re-enter the building, in the hope of saving some poor creature. The few clothes I had recovered I hastily put on and crawled back. I met a girl, one of the help, with a bundle of clothes in her arms. The moment I saw her she fell back exhausted, and I carried her out into the bank building. The rear portion of the hotel where I was was not then in flames, but from the other side great sheets of fire leaped up whirling and flashing. I went back a second time and met another girl. I do not know her name, but she was a dining-room girl, and waited on the table at which I sat. She recognized me, but I did not know her. She was burned very badly. Her hands were hanging by her side, cut open by fire, and the flesh hanging loose upon them. Her arms and her face, too, were scarred and black with soot. Her scanty clothing had just caught fire, and rushing into one of the rooms I seized a sheet in which I enveloped her and carried her through the bank to a sleigh upon which she was placed and taken to her sister at the Axtell House. By that time the hotel was a mass of flame and entrance to it would have been death. A STAIBWAY 131.00st was DEAD BODIES. The servants’ stairway was in the north- west corner of the building. It was a narrow, spiral, wood staircase, and of course, very inflammable. Before the flames reached this part of the hotel there is reason to believe that this narrow stair- way was literally glutted with the bodies of the dead servants. The story told by a guest, Mr. Samuel Martin, .of Denver, bears out this theory. He had a room on the fourth floor. When he realized that the hotel was on fire he sprang into the hall, which was black with smoke, and, running wildly about, found himself at a narrow stairway. Nor knowing where it led, he plunged down. At the bottom of the first landing he fell over a stack of bodies of women. A little further on he encountered agirl who was crazed with terror. He asked her to follow him, but she refused. Without further words he swung her on his back and hurried down another flight. The smoke was stifling and the flames were growing hot. Almost de- spairing of ever reaching the outside, Mr. Martin, still carrying the girl on his back, again stumbled over some dead bodies, he knows not how many, and being unable to recover himself, he and his burden fell headlong to the foot of the stairs. In another mo- ment they were taken out in safety. It is known that it was the servants' stairway that Mr. Martin descended. and so far as now known he is the only person who got out of the house in that way. If that narrow passageway was thus blocked on the lower stories, people now ask what must it have been on the fifth and sixth floors. As near as can be ascertained, no effort was made by anybody to waken the servants, and only a few of the guests had any warning of their danger until their transoms fell in by reason of the heat of the flames which swept up and down the long corridors. ran wnrrs mos AT rnn meow. “ I stood by then and watched the hor- rible incineration. I saw the five girls leap to their death down in the alley, but the most awful view. was one displayed soon after. Miss Chellis stood by a window of the fourth floor in her night clothes, her face pale as death. All round her were tongues of fire, darting in circles from great sheets which waved skyward, and she seemed like a ghost looking out upon the snow on the adjoining house-tops. Hun- dreds of men and women looked upthrough the gyrating sparks horror-stricken at the awful sacrifice about to be offered. It was not long before the fire leaped upon her and shrouded her from view in a wind- , ing sheet of red, devouring her senseless form. Reason had doubtless fled before the fire reached her.” i THBOWN BACK BY THE WIND. Nicholas Moran, of Beloit, Wis, occupied THE MILWAUKEE GATASTEOPEE. DRAMATIC BEOITALS. 1 1mm No. 211 on the second floor, and was I awakened by the cry of “Murder!” He sprang to his feet. went to the door of his room, opened it, and was thrown on his back by a. violent concussion, caused by the rush of wind and flame. He . grabbed his clothing and started for the lower floor; a man went rushing through the hall,’shouting, “ All those who want to be saved follow me 1" He started toward the end of the hall and met several women rushing wildly about, and found others lying on the floor crying hel lessly for their husbands. One of these s outed out many times, “Oh, God! save my child 1" She rushed frantically into the flames with her child and was never seen again. Moran made his way out upon the balcony, and, after throwing his clothes to the ground, jumped upon them himself and escaped unhurt. THE WORTH 01“ EACH LADDER ROUND. Gen. Tom Thumb and wife are at the Plankinton House, feeling grateful for their escape. “ I never had such a flurry in all my life,” said the little General to a re- porter. “ I was awakened by my wife, who said some one was knocking at the door of our room. I was dazed for a moment, then got up and admitted a police oflieer, who yelled fire at me. The hall was full of smoke andI was almost suffocated. The first thingl did was to look around for a chance to get out.” - “Did you find it? ” “"Well,” smiling and rubbing his chubby hands, “I came very near not doing it, butl did. The policeman opened the nearelst window, and I found a ladder raise .” ' ‘ I - “ Rather'Welcome, wasn‘t it ? " asked the repfigtegl ,.; ‘ ' ‘ ‘ ‘ "a ““ " My dear boy. at that moment mm a million. in money wouldn’t oome anywhere near buyiimg a. single round of that ladder. I descenaed the ladder, followed by Police- mdn O’Brien with my wife in his arms.” INCIDENTS. A realization forces itself upon the people that the hotel was not suflioiently watched, there beingI but one man to act as night watchman, elevator man, bell boy and gageral utility men._ _ One man swung himself down on the window-sills from the fifth story. His perilous descent was cheated and cheered again. As his feet touched the second story window he lost his balance, and with a. terrible shriek of despair he fell, a. quivering heap, in the very midst. of the wild crowd that was stiil cheering. “ My wife," remarked Fitzdoodle, "is fairly crazy over the winter fashions. She‘s got the delirium trimmim.” Allan Johnson, the millionaire. who won carried with his wife into the office of the American Express 00., where the two were laid side by side, turned over and imprinted a kiss on the lips of his wife. A. moment later he died. Mrs. Johnson also died within a. quarter of an hour. When Miss Garrison‘s abduction was announced yesterday all business was stopped on ’Ghange. Resolutions were adopted denouncing the crime. In ten minutes $20,000 was subscribed as a. reward for the girl dead or alive, and every mem- ber on ’Change shouted his willingness to drop business and turn detective. flow to Make Home Happy Practi- cally Illustrated. The other night J ones went home in one of those heavenly moods which seem to fit a man for a. better world, and after sup- per was over and the children had gone to bed,he set down to spend an evening of unalloyed bliss with Mrs. J. The fact was a. pretty book agent had sold him a. new work that day, “ How to Make Heme Happy,” and though he thought it best at present to leave it at the oflice and grad- ually introduce it into the family circle, he gee inspired by a slight perusal of it to do etter. ‘ Lamaâ€"Oliver Garrison states that Miss Garrison is now in the house of her uncle. He doesn’t think she suflered any violence at the hands of her abductora, other than being ohloroformed on Saturday, when the ruflians obtained possession of her person. The young lady was returned this evening by one of the ruflians, who probably became alarmed at the great excitement of the public and the probability of punish- ment. A St. Louis telegram says: There is great excitement here over the disappear- ance of Zerelde Garrison, aged 17, one of the belles of the city. Last Saturday she left the residence of her uncle, accompanied by her sister, and took a street-car for Wild Hunter‘s,the terminus of the car line in the extreme southern part of the city. The conductor remarked her getting off the car at Wild Hunter’s, when she asked to be directed to the Convent '_of the Sacred Heart, half a. dozen blocks away. Since then she has not been heard of. The conductor noticed on the ear platform tour rough men, who commented on Miss Garrison’s handsome appearance, and it is supposed they had something to do with her disappearance: So he drew the most comfortable chair in front of the blazing coal fire in the par- lor grate and seated himself for the even- ing, while Mrs. J. filled a rocker on his right. Mr. Jones took his hat and said there was a. manâ€"a. customer of hisâ€"that was in town stopping at the Royal, and he had nearly forgotten he had an appointment with him on business, and Mrs. J. skipped out and ran over to Sawyers and tried the new sealskin on, and the next day Jones gave that copy of “How to Make Home Happy " to his office boy, and told him to sell it at a second-hand bookstore and keep the money.

You know the sitting-room stove-" “To keep him home nights, Ia’pos'e,” suggested Mrs. Jones. “Well, it will take a. club, and a. good strong one to do it, though for my part1 should be glad to have him out of the way if he was my husband.

Extraordinary Revelations of New York High Life. AN HEIRESS GETS $75,000, Because he Was Deceived and Deserted by a Gay Young Swell. A New York telegram of last (Thursday) night’s date says: The Brooklyn jury in the sails of Mary A. Livingstone rs. Henry ‘ Fleming, for breach of promise of marriage ‘ and seduction, returned a verdict of $75,000 for the plaintiff, the full amount claimed. The verdict was received with a storm of applause by the spectators. The suit was an extraordinary one. Miss Mary Alice Almont Livingstone, of slender figure, lustrous black eyes and modest demeanor, wasiplaintiif. Henry Fleming, President of the Petroleum Exchange, Was defendant. The plaintiff was accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Evelina Bliss. Both ‘ were richlydressed in black silk, and they had withlthem a‘pretty infant boy, the plaintifl’s son. ‘ Miss Livingstone .was dressed very becomingly. Her hair, which fell in ringlets about her face, was covered with a bit of millinery from which drooped a pink feather. Her mother, who retains a youthful appearance, was painted and pen- cilled. Miss Livingstone is the daughter of the late Judge Robert S. Livingstone, of Dutchess county, who died owning much property in this city. In July last, when she became of age, she inherited a large fortune: She is related to ear-Surrogate Livingstone, of Brooklyn. She was edu- cated at_Mount St. Vincent Academy. BREACH OF PROMISE. Mt. Fleming is about 33 years old, is tall and athletic, and has chestnut hair and light moustache. Recently he inherited a. half million dollars. Miss Livingstone blushed to the temples when called as a witness. Her motherhad put the baby to sleep in her lap, and cast- ing a motherly glance at it, the plaintiff made her way to the stand. She spoke so low that she could scarcely be heard, and her face seemed to grow hot and cold by turns. She testified that she was 21 years old, and that she first met the plaintiff in November, 1879, at her home in Tom’s River; that he came to see her at times when she was home from school, and that on June 12th, 1881, he proposed to marry her. He sat upon a sofa in the hall of her home one day, and told her of his love. He asked her to become his wife, and she, confessing her love, told him to ask her mother. The latter said that .she had no objection provided he loved her honestly. He said to her: ” Alice, you are now my own little girl, and must not love any one else.” He came to see‘ her often, and in a few days her mother and she removed to the Grand Boulevard Hotel in this city. On the evening of June 22nd he called, sent up his card, and, after talking some time, proposed a walk. Then he asked her to ride down the ele- vated road. They got out at Twenty-third street, and she supposed that he was going to take her to Booth’s Theatre. He complained of being hungry and wanted to go to a restaurant, refusing to go back to the hotel for the meal. He opened a door and went into a house, and a waiter 1 brought some oysters and wine. She refused to eat or drink and arose to go. ‘ He looked the door and _ pocketed the key. He said that he want her no harm, than he was going to make her his little wife, that he intended to be honorable with her. She begged him to let her go home, but he kept her there all night. He took her a part of the way home. Her mother had gone to Philadelphia the night before and had not yet returned. She met her step- father, Henry Bliss, since divorced from her mother. He had been in her room and had discovered Mr. Fleming‘s card. He accused her of having remained away all night with Fleming, but she refused to speak to him and went to her bed.’ When her mother came back she told her what had happened, but did so reluctantly, as she had promised Fleming to be silent, and he had promised her to inform her mother himself and to tell her that he would marry her. At 11 o’clock that day, June 23rd, she wrote to Fleming as follows : You won’t catch this chicken staying home waiting for people much longer. It's going to fledge its feathers and travel to New York on the new and blooming route. We got a new beau connected with railwaysâ€"a stunner, I tell you, who thinks nothing of runnin a. mile to catch a lady, and if you and. Hen thin you are going to lant me down here and expect me to grow, you Both are very much mistaken. * * * Flor- ence, Harry, Mrs. Long and I went for awalk Friday, and Mrs. L. luckily chose a way that led to where “ two paths met.’_’ It was near the B R., and who should I spy flying along the railroad track, with satchel in_ha.nd and the speed of a. locomotive, but Porgie D.?

She says in this letter, "So help me heaven, I will never give you up, and if you do so to me God forgive you,fer you would have more to answer for than you are aware of." The following letter was intro- duced, dated Oct. 15, 1881, addressed to her mother as “ Naughty Mamma;” Miss Livingstone conducted herself with great modesty on the stand. At times she broke into tears,and then she hung her head and for a. short time would not look 119;. -.... ...‘-_ On June, the 23rd, he celled, but she did not see him. She was then sent to the country. After she came back he met her in the street, but she refused to speak to him. He asked her whether she was angry, and she told him that she felt a good right to be angry. That evening he called, and said that he had acted like a. loafer, and that he had come to his better senses and would make her his wife and marry her soon, but he did not specify any time. He expressed much sorrow for what he had done, and said that he would make every- thing right. He celled frequently after that, and treated her lovingly. When she urged him to marry her and save her from disgrace, he begged for time, saying that he bad business troubles and had to com- munieste with his parents. He gave her 830 a. week to pay her expenses. He continued to go to see her until May, 1882, delaying the marriage for business reasons, as he said. At length he flstly refused to marry her, and said that he would tekefihe consequences._ _ Be true, Hen, don't put all the blame on a young girl’s shoulders-the b urden is too heavy. * 4' * My Whole future lies in your hands to make it or mar it as you choose, and God forgive you it you mar it. Your feelings toward me I can only judge of from your words ; mine toward on are as true as heaven, which I have almost ortelted. Mr. Fleming did not come as he had pro- mised thetnight. The next day she wrote to him at 9 rWeet Twenty-fourth street, where she had called, only to find him absent. Of a. scene that she had with her mother she wrote, saying that it would break her heart if he were not faithful, and would. she thought, make her desperately wicked. She adds: clinging to it ? Don’t be unkind. Stand by me alittle, and remember all I' have glven up for you, my only darling. Do I not love you better than honor, virtue, mother; all? This is the truth. so help me God. '16 rest! with you whether my heart is broken or not. ' DARLING Hemâ€"Oh, God! how shall I tell y on I am utterly, entirely hopeless? Bliss, devil that he is, has discovered it all. * " * He is going to meet memma immediately and tell her all. I would rather die than say one word ; but, oh, I feel as it my heart was breaking. Do ou think it will kill me? I trust all to you. on know what would be right. Are you man enough to stand by me now that I am disgraced forever ‘? Will you have the heart to go back on me and see me suffer? I am in misery. If you were only here to take my part a little. Mamma will never want to be friends with vou again.

He says he also has other confirm- atory evidence which he does not now wish to give, and says he did not make the story of the confession public before because he was at a less what to do. He corresronded with the British consul in new York and received descriptions of the men seen in the cab, some of whom resembled O'Donnell in some respects, but not in others. He had no means of determining the truth or falsity of the statements of O‘Donnell, and thought he should not be let go under the circumstances. 0): Monday night he said he should send a. copy of the confession to the British consul at once.
