( Now York Herald Cable Special to THE BKK. ] I tun nblo to glvo you the following sworn statement of M. Uuu- nmnn , secretary of the Splondldo hotel , made to the Judge d'lnstructlon , who Is Investi gating the Dcacon-Aholllo tragedy : "On the night of the crime Mr. and Mrs. Deacon dined'together In their own apartment with their children. 1 nm not nwnro when Deacon left the hotel , but nt midnight precisely ho came into my ofllco. Ho was apparently calm , and asked mo to go up sinus with him. Ho had noth ing In his hands. I could not Imagine what ho wnntod. On reaching the threshold ho stopped In front of his wife's door. After knocking twice , ho said quietly , 'open the door. ' Fully three minutes passed be fore Mrs. Deacon opened the door , which gave admission to * her bedroom. Than Deacon said to mo , 'stand Ib ono side , but do not go nwny. ' By this tlmo I thor oughly understood tbo situation. I had caught ngllmpso of Mrs. Doucon by the light ot the candle hurtling on the mnntol piece. She was in her night dross : . .Deacon entered the room nlono and closed tbo door. After n lapse of two minutes I heard three reports , which , however , did not In the least rosom- blopistol shots. To corroborate this J may say that people sleeping in the adjoining rooms heard nothing , and none of the visi tors in the hotel know what had happened until the next morning , Wlutt Actually Touli I'liico. "Immediately nftcr the reports , Deacon opened the door to tbo bedroom nnd came Into the corridor holding n candle In his baud. Ho said , 'Como In , ' aud-loadlng the way wo crossed the bedroom. "I saw Mrs. Deacon rapidly crossing the room clad in a peignor , but otherwise in her nightdress. She blowout the light held oy Deacon , but when I struck n match nnd re lighted the candle she snid that she- wished it known that Monsieur Abeillo was In the salon. Deacon conducted mo into the salon and wont up to tno sofa. Pointing behind It , bo said : " 'I wish you to note that man lying there. ' He then told mo that h'o had leaned ever the sofa and itrod down on the man whom ho saw was Abellle. "At that tlmo Aboillo was lying crouched up behind the sofa. I thought ho was dead , ns ho neither moved nor spoke. H-J was dressed In a silk night shirt , ever which he were trousers , coat and vest. He pave mo the Impression of a man who bad hastily pulled on bis clothos. "Deacon then retired to his wife's bed room and called my attention to the fact that two persons had evidently occupied the berth , nnd then said : 'Send for the police. ' "During the whole of this , time Mrs. Dea con did not show the least emotion. " A remarkable fact is that though the room Aboillo occupied ut the hotel communicated with Mrs. Deacon's room , the door was fastened - toned on the side of Abeillo's room. It Is still more extraordinary why Abeillo did not escape through the door into the corridor , as ho could have done easily. .

After saying that it was consoling to ro- ccivo in tbo midst of affairs occupy ing his whole time to warm n rec ognition of his efforts for the people's" welfare , ho proceeded r "Untortunntely it has now bceoruo the fashion to criticise and nag at every stop taken by the government.

Lady Blandford is porsonn-grala with the queen , nnd society was also on her sldo when she divorced her hudband , although unwill ingly , after writing the most patholloletters , ottering to condone everything for her chil dren's sake. Since then she has openly ro- grettcd that she did not suffer In silence , for her children's position is naturally nffccted by the divorce. But on the other hand , the present duchess of Marlborough - borough wus never cordially received , nnd only on great pressure did the queen allow her to bo presented on her raarrlago.

This was the second day's session of the Trnnsmls- slsslppl Cjinmorcial congress. The early part of the session wns connumod by the In troduction of the following resolutions : To urovldo for moans to send delegates to Washington to urge these measures. By Mr. Shlrmor of Missouri Referring to the notion ot the Board of Trade In favor of establishing n United States naval reserve and petitioning congress to make such ap propriations ns may bo necessary for iKo use of naval militia In the several states ; recom mending the transfer of revenue marliio ser vice to tlio Navy department ; the inprovo- montot the great lakes , improving the Mis sissippi river nnd tributary streams Indo- pohdant of other river and harbor appropria tions. By Mr. Hardy of Utah Recommending liberality on the part of the government In making appropriations for public buildings , ospec\ally \ in Ogden nnd Salt Lnko City , and to establish a land oflleo nt Ogdon. By the chair Demanding Immediate ad mission of Now Mexico as a state. Resolutions were also submitted by the Now Orleans Board of Trade ns follows : Favoring Increased facilities at the mouth of the Mississippi rlvor ; for the Improve ment of navigation of tlio Mississippi river ; favoring protection by the national govern ment of levees of the Mississippi rlvor and it-R tributaries. Governor Hubbnrd of Texas delivered nn address on thu subject of water ways. Apdrossos on the , same subject were also made tiv Mr. W. T. Grnsua nnd Mr. Craw ford of Texas. At the afternoon session the following pro gram for Thursday was adopted : "Morning session : Mississippi river im- provoniont nnd protection ; nddressos by Senators Gibson and While. Afternoon session : Silver coinage ; ad dresses , by Governor T. E. Anthony of Kan sas , Mr. A. C. Fisk of Colorado and Hon. Thomas.Pattlson of Colorado. Hon. Warner Miller , ox-sotmtor from Now York , and now president of the Nlcftragun Canal Construction company , was I lion In troduced and delivered an interesting ad dress oti the plans and progress of the canal. Senator Miller gave u brief historical ac count of tbo various efforts that have been mndo to construct nu Intcrocoanlc cannl nnd an account of tbo various surveys that hnvo been mndo by the United States government and private purtios , tbo results ot winch havogono to prove that the only feasible route for a canal across the American isth mus is by way of Nicaragua. The gov ernment has demonstrated this most con clusively by several extended surveys which it has made of the entire isthmus fiom Mexico ice down to South America. This opinion loparding the Nicaragua canal has been con curred in by all the American nnd foreign olitdnoprs who hnvo ever examined the country. Gonorbls Grant , Sherman nud McClelland all approved the route and were desirous of seeing the work undertaken. It Is a well known fact that Generals Grant nnd MrClollnnd were ooth interested in former concessions and would have been the ono president , the ulhor chief engineer of the enterprise if they had lived. Americans have always believed In the feasibility of this route nnd never had any faith in the ill-fated enterprise of DoLossops , and the ro- suit proved th'o soundness of their Judemont. Mr. Miller then gave a description of the physical conditions of Nicaragua and of the route as now located , ever which ho had passed with a parly of engineers and other gentlemen , who all pronounced thp work entirely feasible. 1'ho distance ncross the country from Groytnwn on the Atlantic to Brito on the Pacific is 170 miles , of which there nro only twenty-seven miles of artificial canal , the rest being river and lake naviga tion , amply providing for the speedy nnd safe transit of the largest vessels now nav igating both oceans. Lnko Nicaragua furnishes - nishes more than ten times the volume of water necessary for the operation of the locks of the canal , nnd for the artificial basins lo bo crealod , while back water nav- icatlon of the river Is obtained by the con struction of a largo dam. Tbo value of this canal to the commerce of the United Stales is best illustrated by stat ing that tbo distance between San Francisco and Now York nnd New Oilo.tns Is btiortoned a little more than 10,001) ) miles from the dis tance going'nround the Horn , or nearly one- half the1 circumference of the globe. The Pacific states nro bcnollted not only by being brought nearer to the gulf and eastern ports , but they nro also brought proportion ately ncuror the whole of Europe. The experts - ports of wheat mid ir-ost of the raw products of the Pacific coast go lo Iho markets of Europe at the present time , where they are brought into competition with the wuent coming from India , through the Suez canal. The con struction of the 'Nicaragua cannl might easily double the output of the Pneifio states in wneaj. . and other agricultural products and find for them a more profitable market than now because tbo cost of transportation , which is * i largo item of expense In com merce , would bo reduced by the reduction of tbo dlstanto. Mr , Fiak-of Colorado asked how th ° con ross would act. in the matter. Mr. Millar replied thai the company Is u private corpo- ration'chartered by the government. It is authorized to Issue bonds , but has not done so , owing Jo the closeness of tbo home and foreign markets. It is Intended to soil the bonds In America , but ho had no recom mendations to make to thn congress. ISx-Govornor Anthony asked how long it would take to Jinish tbo work with the funds on hand , and Mr. Miller replied that it would take about live years. Hon. J , . L. Torroy of St. Louis was next inJrQiiucd , and , delivered nn address upon the bankruptcy bill. " tiK.Vfi'fOHs o 'iiiK v.iiti'ir.
