into great excitement this mornoin by the report -
port that Governor Cleveland had beennssault
od while on his way from the executive man
slon to tlio capitol- Some reports said ho hat
been assassinated , and others that ho had boot :
fatally wounded. The reports spreadi quickh
and hundreds gathered at the capitol , nnd
sought out the governor's room to inntnro , at
to the foundation for tha rumors nud tha con <
ditiou of the governor. The following fact !
TUB ASSAULT.
HA wan assaulted in front of the medlcnl
college this morning , by Samuel Boano ol
Chomnng county , who was ejected from the
executive chamber last week for creating n
disturbance while seeking n pardon.
Boone struck nt the governor with bis tight
hand , but the blow wns wnrded off. Ho repealed -
pealed the striking several times but failed to
hit the governor in the face. Ho then darted
towards n pile of cobble stones , but wns inter
I cepted by Dr. Geo. H. Houghton before ho
he'obtaincd n missile. Boone returned to the
attack on the governor , when Houghton
seized aud hold him and tbo governor deliber
ately walked on.
Boone was released and wont quickly
to his boarding bouse , where ho was arrested
shortly afterwards. Ir. Houghton overtook
the Governor and conversed briefly with him
about the nseault. The governor proceeded
to the capitol. Ho nlluded only cnusually
about the matter to attaches of hid office. In
the police court Boone pleaded not guilty and
asked two days to prepare his case , as ho
wanted to telegraph to Judge Boardman Smith
of the Eiiprcma court to defend him , Tha case
was put down for Wednesday. Boone was seek
ing pjrdon for his brother-iu-lawwho was sen
tenced to two years nt Auburn for shooting
into a crowd , assembled near his house on hal-
lowecn night , and seriously injuring a boy.
Boone aud his wife requested the governor at
JClmyrn , to pardon him , and the governor said
that he would look over the matter. When
ho returned to Albany the governor spoke to
Distiict Attorney Stanchfleld , % vho was strong
ly cpposcd to granting the application , as he
did not think there were any grounds for
clemency.
THE ANTECEDENTS Or THE CASK.
Last evening Boone reappeared with his
wife. She went into the executive chamber
while her husband remained in the anto-room.
She became excited and violent in her
language and the governor's attendants say
aho struck at him , hut he seized bar arm ,
asked her to bo seated and be calm. He rose ,
she sat down , and then fo 1 to the floor In
-violent hysterics. Two orderlies hon removed
her to a house across the street , where she was
treated. She has been hysterical mott of the
time since. Boone rays when ho heard hii wife
scream he rushed into tbo room and
found the governor just letting go of her. Ho
was put aside by orderlies who removed the
woniin. He claims the treatment was so
severe that she is in a dying condition and he ,
overcome by his feelings , attacked the gov-
ornor. A reporter of the Albany Journal ,
who cilledvlicra Mrs. Boone is , saw her , nnd
the brnisos on her arm , where it ia alleged the
governor seized her. Attendants said that
she -K : n n Cumatoza condition and apparently
dying.
ANOTHEll ACCOUNT.
Boouo , who nssUiltf < J _ the governor unsuc-
sossfully , solicited for his brother-in-law , who
is confined in Auburn prison for shooting a
man : n Chemung county a year ago. Booao
met the governor as ho was walking over
lEaglo street from the ox cutivo mansion to
the caplt 1 , about U this morning , and struck
nt him , nt the sumo time uttering an oath.
Governor Cleveland throw up hU arm nnd
warded off tno blow. Several persons near
by , who had seen the ufTair , ran after the man
nnd captured him. Governor Cleveland ut
once proceeded to the executive chamber.
BOOUP oamo horj about two weeks ago to press
an application nnd the governor then
mid to him that ho would take up
his papers at his earliest convenience and
would dici o It ns soon as possible. His im
pression was that the prosecuting officers of
the county were unfavorable to the pardon ,
and if so lie could not grant it , unless they
saw tit from further reflection , to modify their
statements as no pardons were granted in op
position to local authorities. Boone , at this ,
demanded immediate answer , yes or nc , and
said to Cleveland if the district attorney bad
reported ngainst the pardon ho would slap his
face , and if nut ho would como bask and slap
the governor's fuco. In a few days Boone
telegraphed the governor that tha district at
torney nud saved him a fuco slapping by ac
knowledging that Cleveland's statement was
true. Lust week , ono morning , Boone and
his wife appeared at tha executive
chamber , and the governor granted
them an audience. The woman was
in a state of great nervous excitement and at
tempted to strike the governor , Ho caupht
her by the wrist and said to liar , "my dear
women , you arn beside yourself , sit down and
let us talk the matter over reasonably , " At
that she throw herself on the floor and scream
ed and shouted until she was retLOve i from
the building , Boone and his wife remained
hero over since and Boone his followed the
governor back and forth from his houeo to the
Capitol , He has uttered all manner of threats
to shoot Cleveland , OiC , and was regarded asa
"crank. " Ills has had several
a . wife tits of
8" " " hysteria and her attending physician urged
Boone to t iko her home , but ho has refused ,
* ' Boone Is in jail and will be examined as to his
sanity , Wednesday.

In Ohio nnd West Virginia Imvo put a now

[ "Never , never , is ii n dream ! " ] And that

ilaceil under the control of that section. It
neans that the constitutional amendments to
which they t > ro BO bitterly opposed shall bo
inforcod only so far as they nmy believe in
horn ; th t the national credit as puar-
antccd in the fourteenth amendment ;
hat the payment of pensions to soldiers of
he union as guaranteed in the same amend-
nent , shall be under their control , nnd what
hat control might moan can bo measured by
ho bitterness with which Uuuo amendments
were resisted by the democrats cf the south ,

article Hays : The news of the morning was all
in favor of depression of prices. It it be'
liovod the West Shore contracted to tnkt
grain from Chicago nt seven cents per biuhol.
There teems no prospect of immediate im
mediate improvement In the wnr on rates. It
seems coupled with n purpose to brcnk down
nit prices , in order to got possession of cortnin
stocks. The Jersey Central Is ono that being -
ing the key to the coal trade From n Now

ing cannot hold control of the Jersey Central
owing to its own financial embarrassment.
