A BROTHER IN MARYLAND.
Sir William Ciordnn-Cumraing Has' a
Brother In This Country.
Baltimore, Md., June 4. Alestar
Penrose Gordon-Cumming, brother of
Sir William GOrdon-Cumming,'has lived
for the past twelve years in Carrol county,
forty miles from Baltimore. He has re
ceived letters from Sir William, in which
the lieutenant-colonel of the Scot's guard
declared his innocence of the alleged
baccarat cheating, and says he, Sir Will
iam, will fight the matter to the bitter
end, and Mr. George Cumming, referring
to his brother's alleged mode of play,'
says Sir William has since early youth
been affected with a slight touch of St.
Vitus' dance, inherited from his mother,
which caused Sir William to exhibit a
nervousness of hands when playing' at
cards. Sir -William would invariablv
toy with the chips. He thinks those
who accuse his brother of cheating, thus
deceived themselves. He speaks of the
Wilsons as extremely common people,
and of Berkeljr Lovett as a "cad.". Con
cerning the .signing of the famous con
tract by Sir William, his brother says
it was done solely that there would be
no exHse of the Prince of Wales' exor
bitant gambling.
BROKE OUT OF JAIL.
A .Burglar, After Making a Confession,
Makes His Escape.
Dayton, Wash.; June 4. Louis Mayer,
arrested some few weeks a so for burefarv
-confessed his guilt yesterday before the
superior court, and was to be sentenced
! today. This morning, when Jailer Mc-
L-auley took Mayer's breakfast to him in
the county jail he found the prisoner
gone, a bent iron rod showing the place
of Mayer's exit. Mayer had been locked
up since his last escape in one of the
Pauly steel cells, and how he escaped is
a mystery. The most plausibly theory,
and one generally credited now is that
when McCanlay went to gather up the
supper dishes, Mayer slipped out of the
cell and went into hiding-, then, under
cover of night, filed his way out to
liberty. He called on his wife and told
her a story which is about as above nar
rated in regard to his escape.
Modeled on the American Act.
London, June 4. In an interview o
day Louis J. Jennings, M. P. for Stock
port (formerly of the New York Times)
stated that he had framed a bill for in
troduction in parliament, intended to
exclude destitute foreigners from Great
tfritain on the same lines as followed by
the United States. Mr. Jennings, while
in America, studied the legislation on the
subject carefully, and thinks that Eng
land cannot do better than to adopt the
principles of the measures made neces
sary in the United States by the exper
ience of that country with pauper and
criminal aliens. He anticipates a great
deal of opposition to this measure. The
radicals will not assist him and : the
government will not take action in the
premises. The tories will not antagonize
the attitude of the government. Never
theless, Mr. Jennings believes that pub
lic feeling on the subject has reached
such a point that he is justified in pro
ceeding independently in the advocacy
of the bill, in the hope that the discus
sion it will arouse may lead to pressure
upon the government, so that they will
eventually lend their countenance,
more or less directly, to the proposed
enactment. -

CALLING ON THE NATIONAL BANKS.
Secretary Foster Uses This Method to"
Replenish the Treasury Surplus.
Washington, June 4. The net surplus
in the treasury today is $5,000,000, a
smaller surplus than has been in the
treasury in the 'memory of the oldest offi
cials. To increase this surplus, Secre
tary Foster has called in $3,000 ,000 of de
positories from national banks. The
call reads: "The secretary of the treas
ury has this day called upon a number
of national bank depositories to transfer
to the sub-treasury a portion of the
amount of public moneys held by them
and not needed tor the transaction of
public business." These banks, which
are mostly what is known as "surplus"
banks, had been notified by the late Sec
retary Windom and had previously trans
ferred the amount of two -calls made by
him. The amount to be transferred on
or before June 30, 1861, under "this call ,
is about $3,000,000. It is probable that
other calls will be made from time to
time on these national bank depositories
until tllnir hnlrlintra ulmll 1...,-. Iwun
. ..ftw '..v iv -
duced to about the amount needed to be
Kept therein tor the proper transaction of
current public business.
May Adopt the American Method.
Berlin, June 4. The Prussian minis
ter of justice, Dr. Schellingis interested
in the new American method of execu
tion by electricity, and has caused in
structions to be sent for full reports as
to its methods of working so far as ob
tainable. Many Russians are inclined
to consider decapitation as too bar
barious a method of execution, and the
consequence of this sentiment is favor
able to the criminal classes. Keindel,
the headsman, has been making personal
inquiries on the subject, of electrical
death ; whether for official reasons or to
satisfy his own curiosity is not known.
The conservative feeling'in Germany is
very strong, and there is little probabil
ity of such a serious change in,the crimi
nal laws as to do away with the existing
form of death penalty.
General 8chofleld to Marry.
Chicauo, June 4. The news of a social
event of the first magnitude was private
ly discussed tonight among many officers.
Although not yet formally made public,
the announcement is said to be authori
tative that Ma jor-General John M. Scho
field, senior officer of the United States
army, who is a widower, and who is now
in the West, will soon be married to
Miss Georgia N. Kil bourne, of Keokuk,
Iowa. The date has been fixed, but is
not given out. The, bride is quite youth
ful, being a schoolmate of General Scho
field's daughter. The Kilbourne family
is a prominent one in Iowa, and is also
well-known in the East.
Admiral McCann's Report.
Washington, June 4. Rear-Admiral
McCann, commanding the naval forces
of the South Atlantic and South Pacific
stations, sent a report to the secretary of
the navy in regard to affairs in Cliili.
The report is dated Valparaiso, April 29,
and says a German naval force of five
ships w'as ordered to Chilian waters, and
is due about June 20. The admiral says
the arrival of the United States steamer
Baltimore at Valparaiso attracted much
attention and had a good effect.
En-route to the Coast.
Chicago, June 4.General Russell A.
Alger left Chicago last night for the west.
He will visit the Pacific coast, spending
most of his time in Washington. The
trip, he says, is one purely lor health,
and has nothing to do with the scheme
by which, as rumor had it, he would be
connected with Leigh Hunt and Mr.
Clarkson in planning to stablii--h a
gigantic line of steamers from Washing
ton seaports to China.
The Grippe in Alaska.
San Francisco, June 4. The schooner
C. T. Hill arrived here from Kodiak.
Alaska, today. She brings news that
tlie grippe is creating great havoc among
the natives. Hundreds have died at the
rate of a doxen per day. There are no
doctors on the island" and no medical
stores. The natives are also suffering
hardships on account of the poor catch
of seal otters, on which they depend for
their living.
Keeping Iaiup Burners Clean.
The other d:iy a lady noted for her at
tainments in housekeeping showed me
some lamp burners that had been used for
many month.-:, yet were as bright as if just
purchased. In reone to my inquiries us
to the means used for keeping them so
bright, she told me that when she baked
beans she saved t lie water in which they
were boiled, and put the burners in that,
boiling them until clean; then they were
rinsed in boiling water and dried.
