rejoinder thereto).
I have read Mr. Bohnef eld’s reply and indorse
tvjry line of the same. His recital of the inci
dents connected with toe cowhldln* Is entirely
correct. There Is not a tinge of mlsrepreacma
lion ln it. The motives he escribes as'actuating
him to the part he took In toe affair also moved

I win, however, add to Mr. Bohnefe’d’a state
ments the following: Logan received hia flog
ging without aur protest except ln words
although his manner justified the belief that be
wss armed. No threat even of any violence on
ras made by me, nor by Mr. Bohnefcld, so
fares 1 heard Mr. Boh2efeld was entirely on
armed, and I had only a small pocket-knife.
From Logan's conduct I am inclined to believe
that toe mother, if she had been entirely alone,
could have given him the cowhiding as effect
ually as if na man had been present. 1 make
this statement because I have learned that Lo
gan has stated that pistols were presented toward
him while he received the cow hiding.

The foregoing is a plain and correct

Wabhibqton, June 24.—A profound
eensation w. a made in social and polit
ical circles by tbe publication of th j
following paragraph in tbe Star: “Last
Wednesday night several gentlemen
were dining at Welcker’s. While at
tbe table they were staitled by tha
scream* of a woman in an adjo ning
room. They rushed to the d or and
demanded that it be opened. This not
being complied with tbe door waa
(orced open. The discovery was then
made that a.certain congretsman, lately
admitted to hia seat trom one oi the
southern states, was attempting to out
rage a lady whom he had invited to
dine with him. One of the gentlemen,
an ex-confederate officer, unceremoni
ously kicked the member from the
south out of the room.” 4 •
caairuL lavraTKunmfi
into the basia of tbia story above, shows
that it has enough back of it to warrant
the expulsion of the member in ques
tion, and the creation of a great social
scandal. Last Wednesday evening,
Gen. T. L. Rosser, chiei engineer of the
Northern Pacific railroad, railed at
Welcker’a with a lady friend, to obtain
a light lunch. Tbe time waa 11 o’clock
in the Evening. He entered the public
dining-room and passed to the lower
end ot the apartment. As no servant
waa in sight, and none appearing, he
lelt his friend and went out after a s r-
vant. When he returned he found his
ladv friend very much agitated. She
exclaimed that there waa
BOHRHIitO WRONG GOING ON
in the next room; that ahe bful heard
sounds of sobbing, begging, and groan
ing from tome lady in distress. CoL
Posser went to the door in question
and knocked. There was no answer.
He knocked again and there being no
answer he poshed hia way into the
room, where he discovered a lunch ta
ble covered with empty wine glasses
and bottles and the remains of a lunch.

at one side oi the room was reclining a

WHAT ACKLIN FRIENDS BAY.
The friends of Congressman Acklin,
of Louisiana, publish a card in this
morning's Poet regarding the affair
which occurred in this city last week,
involving the name and good repnte of
that of a gentleman and lady of prom^
inence in the society of New York and
Washington. The circumstances, they
remark, have been
MISREPRESENTED AND DISTORTED,
and, without going into details, it is
sufficient to say there was nothing in
the conduct of Mr. Acklin to warrant
the inferences which have been dr^wu
by the pnblic and countenanced by the
press. Acklin’s conduct has not been
such as to withdraw from him the con*
fldence or esteem of
THE LADY IN THE CASE.
The card continues: There has been
and is now but one issue in the prem
ises, and that is an issue of a personal
and private character between Mr.
Acklin and Gen. Rosser, who have
both left the city for their respective
homes, to arrange their affairs for such
a determination of the issue between
them as their views of the responsibil

He then token hia leave of Mr. Thurman, went
over to Mr. Burma's, near a halt mile distance,
obtained Us intended instrument of death from
Mr. Williams, who is ln the employ of - Mr. Bur
ras. He then returned to Mr. Thurman’s (that
gentleman and family ln the meantime having
retired) pulled off his shoes outside of the gate,
committed the rash act, threw the razor
against the boose about ten steps from toe gate
opened toe gate, went In, knd commenced
knocking at the door. Mr. T. got up, (squired
i tiuu,” receiving no answer,
but a continued knocking at his door. Bur*
glarlsm and murder having become so preva
lent, together with toe unusual manner of the
party outside, caused Mx. T.’s hesitation about
presenting hi Altera minute or so, how
ever, be opened the door, and upon seeing a
stream of blooi flowing from Mx. B.'e neck be
soon took in the eiWation. He obtained help
and a physician as soon aa possible, and hss
cared Ior Mr. B. the very beet he could up to
this time.
It is not definitely known what prompted Mr.
Borne to attempt relf-dcstructlon, and he has
ven several diflerent reasons tor doing so, to-
wit: Tho parents of Mins Thurman disliked
him and his wooing of their daughter. An*
other reason is that scandalous report* had been
circulated in to* community about him. An
other also, and which t • gave the writer, wa
that he had a good home and friend with Mr
luokclt, yet hia lot in U'e wm a hard one out
side of that, which had greatly troubled his
mind, and he supposed caused the act.
I think Mr Barns’s mind wm greatly nabal-
lanced at toe time. I also think that mental
deficiency has manifested itself ln his case be
fore aud since toe occurrence. 1 believe it, and
say lt as much In behalf of MlssT.u anybody
else, for lt must be really annoying to a young
lady to kcow or feel that a man hat attempted
a destruction of hla life oa her account.
Mr. B Is doing well, and we hops will soon
recover, never to attempt such a thing again.
