DctTALO , N. Y. , Aug. 15. Tlio Kvcning
Telegraph says : A citizen of Buffalo gained
anaudlenco xvith Maria Halpin as tha bearer
of n message from n friend , and received from
her this statement : ' 'I xx-as employed nt Flint
& Kintz xvhen Cleveland persistently sought
jno and finally made my acquaintance. I xx-as
uot as ttout as I look now , being tall and
slender , aud it is a xvondor I endured all I
suffered in the years from 187-1 to 1877. My
child , Oscar I'olsom Cleveland , xx-as born
Sept. M , 1S74. Grover Cleveland is his father
aud to say otherwise is an infamous attempt
to connect tha dead Oscar Folsom xvith mo or
my boyof xvhich I hoar.is cruel aud coxvardiy.
It docs not seem possible after all I Buffered
for 'Cleveland ' and my boy's sake that the
attempt should bo made to blacken mo in
the eyes of the xvorld. No ono knoxvs
the extent of my sufferings. After my child
was taken from me , I begged Cleveland on
my knees to luc me have a eight of my baby
Ho xx-as immovable. I found xvhero the hey
was , and ono day Ijrushed in before his keep
er , snatched him up and ran nxvay before they
could stop me. My suffering subsequently ,
my fruitless efforts to have him fulfill his
promise of marriage , his neglect of myself and
child , my abductions nnd violent troatmout
of his hired tools , are trulhfully but only par
tially told in Tha Buffalo Telegraph of July
21. It would be impossible to cover the events
tli.it made up these yoaw of shame , suffering
and degrodation forcad upon mo by Governor
Cleveland. " The Telegraph says it has her
attested statement to tlib effect. When told
it xvas reported she had mudo or was about to
make a statement exonerating Cleveland from
thochargo.MarU Halpin acted as if preparing
for supr < jmeeirortnnd replijd in an impressive
and earnest manner : "Mo make a statement
exhonerating Grox'cr Cleveland ? Never ; I
would ruthor put a bullut through my heart. '
She said sna could not triuhfuliy make any
such statement , .and Cleveland xvould ntdaro
to. She xvould not humiliitto herself again
that ho uiijrht enjoy hoiiois and wealth , x"hilo
on his account she was exiled from kindred
and friends , and patiently mx-.iilod for death
to end her misery. Slio than xvout iutn the
details of xvhat sha had eulfcred from ISrl to
1877 at the hands of Cleveland und

the committee about sending n big supply of

the feeling In the state is most intense. The

has aroutod everyone. At public meetings
xvhero ho has sjiukon ho says ho has met old
man xvh < > tell him that they have not attended

of the republican managers in

tlio feeling against Klkius is HO great that it

tion of possible corruption that stnto xx-ould go

tenant Kislingbtiry , of the Arctic exposition ,
xvho died amid the Arctic snow last Juno , It
is established beyond all question that canni
balism was resorted to by the starving men ol
thoOreely expedition , nnd shoxvs that the
lives of those saved wore preserved only by
eating the dead bodies of their companions.
Lieutenant Kl-dingbury's relatives hero XVOM
tilled with horrible doubts as BOOH as they
learned that disclosures had been made in
Noxv York regarding cannibalism ninoiig the
members of the oxpeditton , and they deter
mined to learn tlio trutlj by exhuming the remains -
mains and have them examined by competent
physicians. Tlio services of nn undertaker
xvero secured , and , witii the assistance ol five
men , ha accomplished the work of taking up
the casket from its roiling plnco. Tlio cuskoC
wan ope.ned in the presence of Frank W. Kis-
liugbury and John P. Klslingbury , brothers
of the deceased. Dr. Charles Jiuclc-

in lii.s stbmacti'aud 'n'tho iuteutliies xr&s n
lump of Indigestible material. Tliero xx-ero no
indications of rupture , mid tlio story that ho
injured himself is discredited. W. H. Kis-
lingbary opposed exhuming the remains of his
brother up to Wednesday night , in the belief
that his brutho : could not luvo been preyed
upon by the survivors because of the leiiort
that ho had helped to kill a polar b.nr ; three
days before ho died. Tim party were rescued
thrcn weeks after his brother H death , and
Kislingbury held that the hear would furnish
the necessary food for n tow survivors that
length of time , fairly distributed and hus
banded , but as there ara no indications that
Lieutenant Kislingbury partook of the boar
and the fact that the lleshy jiarts of the lieu-
tuiiaivs body xvero cut elf in a careful and
scientific manner , slioxvn the bear story might
liavo been invented by noino ono to conceal
cannibalism Instead of eating bear the sur
vivors subsisted on tlio bodies of their dead
companions. | In tho'upininn of Kialing'oury ,
