H. , Mitchell newly elected United . States Senatorfrom Oregon, as yet bat " ' little known lo fame, baa ' lately : been made the subject of a sensational story, tl wnica snows bun to nave bad quite a history, with incidents in. it redounding not wholly to bis credit.' When he was slain John H. Mitchell, his story pos f seised no interest for any one outside .f his .own " immediate., circle,,,, but " ' now ' that he 'has become a member of the august United States Senate, , , hia antecedents and past life become of public interest. In tbe position 01. a 1 ' Senator exposed to the thousands of - temptations incidental to that high place : it is highly important that 'each bena- tor should start out virtuous, at least. - as Hsnry .Wilson -did; when he went out of the shoe business . and into leg-' islative cobbling1." . . So, when the breezes gently whisper tl in Pittsburg that the new Senator " from Oregon was an old Pennsylvania il 3T, ssanV and that he waa present under an assumed name on account of an unfor .T " ; tunate past life, : the ' matter became at .v . once a proper one for investigation. 'Zl Qdffe ' '.''.A 8ENAT0B WITH AJT ALUS.' W'U ' The: object of the ' inquiry was not tt1 V. " y86'?? IPy P8 scandal against jut. Aiitcneu, out as an uniteap tares ' Senator with &a: alias is a suspicious - character, and if for no other reason than in-justice ' to1 the Senator himself, an. explanat'on , was sought. Then the 'charge, made against him of: being s defaulter to a large amounf was worthy " the most careful attention. Your cor ' respondent went to Butler, the, former home of Mr. Mitchell, yesterday; and there in conversation with the old law partner, received tbe history of the new 1 Senator's early life. -His Butler" expe- i rience waa a bitter one, 'J THE OLD, OLD STORY, 1 1 fi C T 2 wduiaW Wthe ter as a .promoter of misery, seems to l'have been ' his." In " Butler he was known as John Hippie. One: days his burden became too heavy for him, and he fled without .word of warning, tak . ing with him some $4,000 of his part ' oer's' money, for which he left what he ' said in a letter was to be used as an 13 3 2 ?jui7alent.r From ihis his partner real ized about, $2,500. The balance was afterward . made good to , him.;", jj Tor years, however, Hippie remained un known to his former Bntler friends. Occasionally, Mr. Thompson, his. old partner, heard from him,, but the letter was always enclosed to him througn-a third party, so that .the runaway's whereabouts remained unknown 'The real name of the new Senator is John: Mitchell Hippell. It appears that when he went to Oregon he dropped his sur name, or rather transposed his name, so that it etocd John H . Mitchell. This was for the purpose of more fcSfectually concealing his whereabouts. The uu--happy marriage which he contracted in J " Sutler, was the main cause ( his mis ' ortunes. Three children were had by " ''his wife,' one conceived outside of wedr' f Ti lock, and two bom after his marriage. The first he took with him in his flight. :-- 'The others he left in this county," and - has since supported. ; Further particu- jars 01 vuib Biury were given in an iu i J terview which your correspondent had , , with CoL" .Thompson, of the firm f of the preceptor, 01 young Hippie, as I shall now call him, and afterward took him into partnership. .. THOMPSON'S STOBY. . Tour correspondent . found Col. 'Thompson in fair office early last even ma and. nnon the announcement of his 1 . business, Mr.- Thompson ; at once .ex pressed his willingness to taije.. Mr. Thompson is a man in the prime of life, .r , of an T active, 5 enegetic type.7 is ' "well known in Pennsylvania1 politics, ,Zl having served' seYerat terms in the Hr- risburg Legislature, . and acted one or " two terms as Speaker of the House of !'i Representatives.1 -' The conversation be gan at once upon the subject of Mr; Hippie,' alias Mitchell." r nnrmnnondent You have heard. doubtless, of the stories concerning the - i f gentleraan- known - as Mr, Mitchell, ii'''i-IInited'Sutes Senator from .Oregon. First,! wish.to know.' from? you is Mr. , . your form or law partner in this place? Colonel Thompson Se is: " ' lo sf:2 ; O.-t-Then I should like 'from you a "'"true history : of ' MK ! Hippie's! .experi- fty encer hereii and whether the present- stories circulated, about Oregon s inew ' Senator are true or not ' ' .. '.. . r Gol. T. In part what has been con cerning him is true, but the stories hay", been highly eolered and- unless viewed rrrrm a standpoint of a fufl knowledge - of the case may lead to the prejudieeof jf, Mr. Mitchell or. Hippie,, just yon 'please. I jwiOl tell you his storyaa 1 know it, and trust yon will publish my Their parents owned . adjoining farnre, for you must know John was a farmer's son., . Iter family was a respectable one, bnt one not remarable, certainly, not in an intellectual way. : John and- this girl,. Sarah Hoom, were much together, and about this time 1 ; 1 i'5- r l tWPLE A S ANT GOSSIP Was'arousedv ' Whether John ever did any wrong to the girl I am unprepared to say.' At any rate, while yet unmar ried she became with child, and anetitu ted proceedings., against John ' upon a charge of -bastardy, claiming him as the father. The result of . this i was that J ohn married the girl. C.-r Would he have married her if he had not really been her seducer ? " Uol. 1 . 1 ou can Bettie that as you lik.e - You are asking me for facts that I know in the case. J ohn married the girl in 1857, I think ; this was upon the advice of his father. Of course the marriage that followed was a . MOST UNHAPPY ONE. - " " It cenld hardly have been different un der the circumstances. Two children were tbe result of this mairiage. The first child the cause of the action against John, was a girl named ' Jessie, t I really believe that my old partner tried to live with his ; wife," but her tastes were of such a nature that there was nothing in common between them. He was educated, studious, and possessed a ; vaulting amouion. - one could - not sympatizo with him, and there - was a perpetual discord. He said but little of this to me, and seemed .resolved to bear bis burden in silence. During tbe winters of 1859 and 1860, 1 was Speak er of the House ot Kepresentatives, and was away most of the time. . John looked after my business entirely. In April, I860, 1 returned to my office. A day or two after my arrival home, John left the Office to go to Pittsburg, mere ly saying that he was going away on business, t 1 mi HE NEVER KETUBNED, .... As my partner. A short time after his departure. I received a letter dated "The Wide World." ,.It had no post 1 mar ny wmcn j. couiu tea wuere ue ihi mark by which I could tell where he hehad gone away.' He said in it that he could not live with bis wile; that he was gojng .away where he would remain undiscovered, and begin Hie over again. He enclosed assignments ' to me of all his 'property here, in satisfaction of some $1,000 which be took, with'bim. he said if -this was not enough to make the $4,000 good he would make it so louthe .yalue of, jveryjent,.. I f ., 1 3 2 2 X POBSTHLp.DEFi.L.CATION. C- Colonel,; was that really in' the nature of a defalcation 1 ' Cot T. It might be. . . " C That is, if you had found Mr. Hippie at the time, and had wished to have an action, tor bim upon tbe ground of defalcation, there might have, been a. case made but - t , Col. T. There might have been, if I had so desired. But 1 am well satis fied there was no intention to defraud: Mr, Hippie has since made good to me the discrepancy Of 81,500.. . Right here I - want to- - make", one-- point clear. There was never-any compromise made by me with creditors occasioned by my partner's flighl The creditors '. of Thompson Se.Hipplo were paid in full all their claims against the- firm. r r- WHY? OH, WHY 1 ( ViifV -i': V c'm i Why 'was it, if Mr. Hippie had confidence in you, he did not reveal his plans to yqo, instead of running away as he did. without giving you any warn ing of his intent t J :4 , . -1 C!1. T. He was young and inexpe rienced. He was made morbid by- his unhappy marriage, and 1 doubtless was afraid of . some obstacle being laid in the way of hia leaving. - THE PITTSBURG INTERVIEW. C. About that interview you had with him in Pittsburg last month 1 "': t Col. T-I went to Pittsburg at his request. . T took'dinner with him at the Union depot hotel on Sunday the 20th of April last.' ' I had been; in corres- Eondence with him for some time, and ad seen him several times since 1867. There was no money difference, be tween ns then A-All that was settled in 1867., Hippie felt that the one great indiscretion of bis life, was the assumpi tion of a. false, name. Probably he Vffehd to talk'with -me'about Jit. At "any. rate we did lalkWer his position, and the certainty Jof his s(ory finally coming out now that he had arisen, to a position of 'public trust.-- I . advised him to meet the story . boldly, and tell the real truth of tbe case. I saw him bnt a brief time, as after dinner he went on his journey. , f , , . - s j-For years you never knew where he was 11 - ". "J - j - . Col. T. No this Was doubtless only another , one- of the - many-precautions that Jobn took to prevent his ! wifp - fol lowing kim,;"8 Bttbjeci upon which he is ; perfectly morbid. Hia wifo remained at home part of the time. . She worked also about "ia 'families." J She was at one lime a charge upon 'this township. Tbe occasion of this Was her being with child, as was '-alleged, by some one on- known to me.. The two children, left rej)laced in the care - of John's "ojrves jn ''larly any fear of hw t wife, , who procured, a divorce from, him (not he from, her, as has been stated), some , three or ..four (-years ago, from Mr, . B- P, Scott, .the which' the divorce was granted was de sertiou. '. The Oregon Senator has sipce contributed at intervals, money for her support, as well as before her divorce. This seems to be the real facts in : the case so' &r as they can be elicited here. That John Hippel. JttitcheU committed grave indiscretions in his youth, and has since ' been severely puniebedv - quite certain. He stands in tbe anoma lous position in the United States Sen ate as a Senator with an alias. Wheth er this will redound to his credit, in connection with the cause that led him to assume it, will hardly be asserted by . t i . . 1 .- f 1- n 1 . tuv muet emuuBiHHuu ot nis inenas.
