THE NUMBER of men who have escaped death at the hands of Mur- derer Birchell, and advertise themselves to that effect, is so large that we suspect the census-takers will not be able to catch up to it. REPORTER of the Herald found that Henry S. Ives was an expert in poker while in Ludlow-street jail; but what a greater expert he is to be able to settle with his creditors for a nickel on the dollar.
