NEW YORK. TWEEDS TESTIMONY REGARDING THE BINGS. New York, September, G.—The Al- dermanio Committee, on investigation of the King FraudB met to-day. Wm. M. Tweed was present with oounsel and gave his story of the various offices he held under the City.

In 18G3 Henry Smith was added to it; In 18G5 Jno. Fox and 18G6 James Hayes; In 18G9, Isaao J Oliver and AndrewJ. Blakely were add ed, but the last two did not know all that was going on, but got their rake in 1870. The Board of Supervisors of the Tweed King had nothing to do with the Supervisor’s King.

Oakey Hall, Comptroller Connally, Street Conimision- er McLean and himself. Adjourned to Wednesday next. THE TURKO RUSSIAN WAR. TUE TURKS ARE WINNING.

CALIFORNIA. DEMOCRATS CARRY THE STATE, HAVE A MAJORITY IN LEGISLATURE This Insures u lleaiovralic Senator. San Francisco, September G.—The re turns are Blow. Thus far they indicate Republican gains in the interior, but they may be modified by later advioeB. It is believed Bryant, Democrat, beats Ash bury, Tax Payer, for Mayor, in tbis oity. San Francisco, Sept. G.—The present indications favor the belief that the Dem ocrats will have a majority in the Legisla ture, but the result is still in doubt. Counting is very slow, especially in tbis oity. DEMOCRATIC VICTORY ASSURED. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] San Francisco, Sept.

Notional Hoard or Steam Naviga tion. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Pittsburg, Sept. G.—In the conven< lion of tho National Board of Steam Nav igation, the Recording Secretary submit ted his report for 187G, whioh was ac cepted. Gapt. Sherlock, from the Executive Committee, in his report submitted, states no progross has been wade toward obtaining the legislation required for the relief of the steam navigation interests of the United States, and the committee earnestly recommend a vigorous effort to be made at the coming session of Con-* gross, with all the influence of those composing the National Board to secure amendments to the steamboat law, whioh has been sought for for the past six years. Au amendment was offered to Mr. Gould’s resolutions of yesterday, whioh ter quires matter of local interest, though general in character, when brought before the Board to be referred to a spec ial committee of five members, selected by course of their familiarity, with all faots and conditions surrounding the mat~ ter. The amendment also provides for a general committee of five to consider the report of the special committee. The amendment was adopted. Gapt. Brown submitted a report of the Committee on the propriety of moving rocks and widening the channel at Louis ville, Ky. The committee consider it practicable, and in every way advantage ous to the marine interests of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers and thetr tributa ries by giving an aggregate depth of water, and offering a more speedy and safe transit through tbe dangerous portion of the river between northern and south ern points. The cost of the improve ment, the committee estimated, would not exceed fifty thousand dollars. Gapt. Varble, of Lonisville, stated the committee had a draft prepared showing the improvement suggested to tho falls. He referred to the fact that pilots had, at their own expense, ordered the chancel to 48 feet. It is proposed to remove the side ledges at the falls, thus widening the channel 130 feet, giving a greater depth also of two feet. He called atten* tioa to the fact that frequently on a run, boats are detained at the falls 48 to GO hours, at great expense. This improve^ mont made, boats can pass over the falls without tho slightest delay. Gapt. U. H. Woolfolk offered a resolu tion for the appointment of a committee of five to take into consideration the question of the improvement of the Mis sissippi river from the mouth of the Mis* qouri river to New Orleans. The resolu tion was adopted aud the chairman ap pointed the committee. The following resolution was adopted: Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed to consider the practicability and probable expense of removing the bars in the Ohio river, which interfere with the navigation, and report to the Board at tho next annual meeting. The following resolution was adopted: It is the judgment of the National Board of Steam Navigation that the pres ent charges for licences to officers of steam vessols are unfair and onerous, aud that the exeoutive committee be instructed to use their best efforts for their reduc tion. i Recess. MEHEMET ALI GAINS A STRATEGICAL POINT. London, Sept. G.—The Times' Vienna dispatch says the Russians abandoned the upper Lorn line and have withdrawn their right wing on that side, whioh was at Peepskoi to a line where they can be in contact with the forces guarding the road from Osman Pasha’s rear. Mehemet Ali has thus gained an undoubted strategical success by his victory at Kaisau. All de - pends on how he will use it. TURKISH ADVANTAGES. The Daily Hews' correspondent tele graphing from Gagova, Sept. 1, shows the Turks, as the result of the viotory at Gar- azan, occupied the largo mountain form* ing the key of the Rasgrad position and commanding almost equally the Lorn and the Kara, the Lorn and Russian positions at Obaka and Gogava. The oorrespon dent says the acting is solely on the de fensive. The Gzarowitz will have little difficulty in keeping his present line in tact with the possible exooption of loss of the Gogava position, Ou tho other baud the Turks are much too strong to lie in active in tho face of an inferior Russian force and the chauoeB are groat that the the Valley of Kara Low will soon be the Beat of a decisive battle of large propor tions. RUSSIANS RETREAT. A subsequent telegram shows the Rus sians evacuated Gogavo and retired to Palomanka. The Times' Bucharest correspondent says the TurkB and Egyptians pursued them thither. AUTUMNAL RAINS. The Times' Bucharest dispatoli, Sep tember nth, says the autumnal rains have begun. It has been raining here contin ually since last night. TIMES URGES INTERVENTION. The Times' leader urges very strongly that England should offor mediation with tho concurrence of other nentral powers, Offers of mediation could be based ou the recommendations by the Constant! nople conference. NO PEACE UNTIL TURKEY IS CRUSHED. In tbis connection the Daily News Bucharest correspondent says peace is impossible until the Turks are completely crushed. Tho war has become a dynastio one for the Romanoffs, as muoh as the Franoo-Prussiau war was for the Napole< one. If tho Czar entered Moscow after concluding an unsatisfactory peace, it would have to bo at the point of the bay onet. This should be as well kuown abroad sb it is iu Russia. WHICH POSITION IS BEST ? London, September G.—The Russian successes at Lovatz plaoes Osman Pasha in an awkward position of having a hos< tile force on both flanks. Either a defeat at Plevna or attempted withdrawal might result in tbe destruction of his army un less tho Russians are compelled to weaken their forces on that side in order to meet Mehemet’s advance from Rasgrad. This seems to place the Czarowitz army in position very similar to Osman Pasha’s, if the Turkish accounts may be trusted, and they seem to be confirmed in these particulars by the Russian admissions, Tbe Turkish force has crossed the Lorn aud reached tbe neighborhood of Abe* teni, while another force has orossed the Kara Lorn to Poalarka. These oorps are understood to be operating against Biela, but they jeapordize the whole Russian campaign east of Yautra, as well as com munications with Pornova. BOMBARDMENT AT RUSTOHUK. Bucharest, Sept. 6.—An important en gagement was fought near Rustchuk yes* terday morning. Soon afterwards the Russians commenced the bombardment of that city from Stobashia and was re plied to by the Turks. The oannonade lasted all yesterday aud continues to-day. The Turks from Widden attempted, last night, to reach Chupercheni near Kalafat but was drived back by a Roumanian bat tery, which was quickly brought up. The garrison of Widdon has been raised to the strength of 8,000 men in consequence of the threatening attitude iu Servia. MONTENEGRIN MISTAKE —700 KILLED. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] London, Sept. G.—A special edition of the Standard has a dispatch from Gon- stantinople which says the Turkish com- ranudor in Herzegovina reports a band of 2,000 Montenegrins surrounded a village near Presika intending to get oattle and corn during the night. A fresh band of Montenegrins arrived when the first band was supposed to be Turks. A fierce combat ensued and 700 were killed and a great number wounded. The mistake was not discovered until morning. EYOUB PASHA DEFEATS RUSSIANS AT KECH- LOWA. Special lo Enquirer-Sun.] Constantinople, September G.—Me- , hemet Ali telegraphs under data of to-day, THE ROPE.

G.—Orazv Horse died at midnight from the effects of inju ries received while attempting to escape from tho guardhouse here last night, liis people took charge of his body. All is quiet this morning. PRINCIPAL AGITATORS TO BE SENT TO FLORIDA. Chicago, Sept. G.—Orders are issued for the apprehension of some of tho prin cipal agitators among the Indians in tho disturbed regions of the West, with a view of plaoing them in confinement in Flori da, a practioe whioh has proved effective in quelling disorders among the Indians in Indian Territory aud elsewhere. Army officers here do not anticipate any com motion on account of the death of Crazy Horse. FRANCE. CHARGES AGAINST OAMBETTA—THIERS* FU NERAL. London, September G.—A dispatch from Paris to tho Daily News says thero are three counts in the indictment against Gambetta whioh charge offences against tho person of the President, and against the Republic, including one for the pas- ssge iu his Lille speoch, ending with the words: Le sournettre ou se demote re. [Sounds like cursing.—-Night Ed. | Thero are six counts for publio insults to the ministers. Tho government will not per mit tho trial to be reported. THIERS* FUNERAL. Paris, September G.—Madame Thiers, having accepted au offioial funeral for her husband only on condition of being her self allowed to arrange the order of tho oortege, the Government has decided to annul the decree published yesterday or* dering a State funeral, as it cannot dis pense with the execution of existing en actments regulating the order of tho pro cession in official ceremonies. Tho Gov ernment will, therefore, toko no part in the funeral beyond paying to the decoased the military honor to which ho is entitled as baviDg been a dignitary and former ohief of State. (UrilctDg Kallroftil Minoru and ■■resident. New York, Sept. G.—A delegation of ten striking miners for tbe collieries of the Delaware, Lackawaua and Western Railroad, situated at Hyde Park, Scran ton, Pa., had an interview with President Sloan, of the company, this morning. The delegation stated their grievances, and asked an increase of wages of 25 per cent, Sloan replied that he would not negotiate with any of his men who were on a strike. When work was resumed ho would be prepared to treat with tho men, and when the price of coal would warrant it, they would make au increase of wages, or if the men so desired, would pay them upon the principal of a sliding scale. Mr. Sloan reduced his remarks to writing, and gave the delegation a copy. Tho men will return to Scranton this evening, and report to a largo mass meeting of strik ers. Ohio Comity Robbed oft' «4»,ooO. Special to the Enquirer-Sun.] Cincinnati, Sept. G.—At Wapakoneta, Ohio, last night, the county treasurer was seized, gagged, taken to the court house, where a fire was placed between his feet as he lay upon the floor, and com pelled to divulge tho combination of the county safe, and $10,000 taken there from. Mr. Myers) the treasnrer, was dis covered this morning in a helpless condi tion. His wrists, feet, mouth and face bear witness of bis suffering. Myers was the outgoing treasurer, and should have delivered up the office on the 1st of Sep tember, but owing to some delay in the settlement of accounts was still in posses sion. Idler Win* the Ynelit Race. Sandy Hook, Sept. G.—Tho yacht raco for the Hounott challenge cup, from Sandy Hook light ship to Gape May and return, was won by Idlor.

Many planters stato that their fields look ah if (iro hail swept through them. It is believed serious damage will result to the crop m this district. Special Dispatch to tho Courier-Journal.] New Castle, via Eminence, Soptember 4.—Tbis community was startled this moruing by the aunounoement that about one o’clock last night a body of men, armed aud masked took possession of this town, and demanded tho bodies of the four men confied in jail here, aooused of the numerous murders, etc., that have been ho extensively written about. Their unmos were Robert Goodrich, James Goodrich, Sam Goodrich and Jim Sim mons. The lynchers are said to have come from four difforeut counties,and are unknown. The Sheriff was powerless to resist. The four men were taken to a bridge in the outskirts of the town, and two of tho men hung on each side. The bodies have been cut down and an inquest held. I will send full particulars by mail. Special Correspondence of the Courier-Jour nal.] Eminence, Ky., Sept. 4.—At oue o'clock last night (or rather this morning) our county seat, New Castle, was visited by a company of disguised men, nurnber- eriug from 150 to 240,as nearly as I oould learn, who went immediately to the house of tho Jailer, Mr. Jones, who lives aoross tho stroet from the jail, and, after knock ing at the door and gaining admission, commanded him to go with them to the jail nud let them into it. Mr. Jones is a feeble old man, but a very clever aud honorable one, who finding bin house filled with armed men aud himself help less, begged them uot to disgrace him by forcing him to do an act wholly unjustifi able and against the law, and contrary to his duty aud wishos; but they told him quietly that it was no use to talk; they meaut business, aud oould not be trifled with; they did not mean to harm him, but he must do au they desired. So, with guus cocked and ready, they forced the old man to go with them and nnlook the jail doors, when they at onoe entered and took possession of the jail. The first man they met after the inner cell doors wore unlocked was H. M. Roberts, who lmtfcbeeu arrested in Louisville and sent up and committed to jail on yesterday evening, oharged with a different offense. This man was Bleeping in one of the cells, aud was quickly awakened and tied. He told them who he was, and they at onoe left him and proceeded to bind securely James Simmons, Robert, Samuel and Joseph Goodrich, three brothers, the first a son-in-law to Simmons. They had sent a part of their company to tho residence of Mr. O’Brien, a grocery merchant, and requested him to get up nud go with them to his busiuess house, and let them have what they wanted out of his stock, WHIOH HE FOUND TO BE ROPE. Obtaining this they repaired to tho jail, and plaoing a rope around tbe neck of each of tho above named four men, led them out of the jail, aud wero proceed ing with thorn through tho street when Sheriff Ricketts aud his three deputies met them and commanded them to give up the prisoners and to disperse. The mob, without any noise or confusion, drew down upon them their guns, and thooliok of the looks could be hoard ns the loader COMMANDED TUE OFFICERS OF TUE LAW TO GET OUT OF TUE WAY or they would be immediately shot down; telling tho Sheriff also that they meant business, and would not be disturbed or delayed in their proceedings by man or rnortul. The officers, finding themselves powerless to contend agaiust such num bers, were obliged to get out of the way or lose their lives. The mob then pro ceeded quietly through tho streets to the western edge of tho town, where a stone bridge about fourteen feet higb, with a single arch, spans a small streum. On top of the bridge on either side are wooden banisters or railingH for the publio safety. To this woodwork they tied the ropes, two upon either side, and from the top of tho bridge dropped the unfortunate men into eternity. The rope to which Robert Goodrich was attached broke, giving him a terrible fall, cutting bis head and bruin ing his face considerably, but be was QUICKLY GATHERED UP AND SUSPENDED TUE SECOND TIME, leaving tho rocks in the bed of tho stream and tho bridge wall disfigured with his blood. James Simmons, tho oldest and the supposed leader of the gang, a very muscular am! powerful man, doubtless struggled desperatoly, as a strong water- gate under the arch of the bridge was broken down iu his efforts to secure re lief. After all was over, the perpetrators of this dark deed dispersed as quickly and as quietly as they had entered tho place. They did not return through the town, and as almost the entire populace were asleep, it is only surmised that they left iu different directions. Your correspond out learned from the prisoners in the jail (Mr. Roberts, mentioned above, and two negro men), neither of whom wore re leased, as well as from the Jailor, that tho men were disguised, and that under their examining trial, during whioh great exoitement prevailed, caused by the erroneous belief that they would be released by the court. During this excitement the jail had beeu guard ed, and every precaution tAken to protect the prisoners. But the magistrates of the law had been firm in the discharge of their duty, and they all had been held over without bail, and were lodged in a jail too secure to admit of doubt an , to their ability to break out. Under these circumstances the exoitomeut had subside ed, and it was the opinion of the officers of the law that no one desired or would attempt to arrest the regular proceedings in the court to punish these men. This mob, therefore, came UPON A BLEEPING TOWN IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT, like a great tidal wave, executed its pur pose aud left it sleeping. TIXK 1'UAHTEK OAK. RAILROADS. Mobile & Girard R. R.

Special Dispatch to the Now York Times.] Hartford, Conn., September 3.—The Special Insurance Commission, after a recess of a month, will resume its investi gations of life companies to-morrow, and will secure at ouce a copy of the contract made between Ueury J. Furber aud tho Gharter Oak Company, uuder whioh the former received compousation for tho cancellation of his olaimn upon the com pany.

It is thought that he would take $50,000 and be satisfied, though he will olaim muoh more if there is delay. The Pope and Scotland. Manchester, Sept.

ONE OF TIIE SADDEST CIRCUMSTANCES connected with this dark picture is the fact that Robert Goodrich had a wife and six children and Jot.oph Goodrich a wife and seven cbildreu. Samuel Goodrich was a Hingle man. James Simmons had a wife aud family of grown-up children, but was not living with his wife when this happened.
