? * _ " ' Colliding was absent during the con
sideration of Gov. Fenton's name , and
when he returned he learned that his
former colleague had been rejected.
He became very much annoyed at this
action and pronounced it a snap judg
ment. The name of Judge Lawrence
was then up for consideration , but
there was very little prospect of his
confirmation. The further considera
tion of his name was stopped by an ob
jecting , only one being ncc-
cssaiy to carry Jiim over .to the
next session. The Senate then
went into legislative session , and then
immediately back again to secret ses
sion. Several votes followed , and Mr.
Conkling's friends , the friends of the
administration , and the friends of
Gov. Fenton united for the first time.
Senators Merrill , Burnside , Hoar and
other gentlemen sought the Presi
dent's room and urged the withdrawal
of Judge Lawrence. Mr. Conkling
was open in his advocacy of this
course , and so many seemed to bo in
favor of it that the President acceded ,
and Gov. Fenton's name was returned.
A dozen mil-calls for as many differ
ent objects followed. Speeches for
and against Gov. Fonton were made ,
and finally , to the Buqirise of every
body , and in silence the most pro
found ,
MR. CONKUNO TOOK THE FLOOR.
A more powerful speech was never
made in the executive session. Con
sidering the previous relations existing
between Mr. Gonklingand Gov..Fen
ton , tha speech" was especially aston
ishing. Ho not only advocated the
confirmation of Gov. Fenton , but ho
.tlirew himself > \itlisall his power and
eloquence into 'tho personal defense of
the nominee , and said he sfionld not j
be strnck down as a distinguished cit
izen of .New York without his honest
Ijrotest. He appealed1 to the Senators
calling their attention to Gov. Fen-
ron's services to the state and the na
tion _ . , and _ said . _ _ ho _ wouldfallshort _ _ . . _ _ - of

At half-past 12 a vote was , taken , and

A motion was subsequently made to
reconsider , but this was promptly ta
bled. ' _
- THE RAILRO S. '
MOKE CHANGES ON T1IU C. , B. AND Q ,
Chicago Tirbune ,
Some excitement prevailed at the
gcneral.oflicc of Ihe 0. , B. & Q. rail
road yesterday owing to rumors that
some further important -changes
among the general olKcers of4 0 road
were to be made in a day or two.
These rumors were caused by .the sudden - -
den arrival in this city of Mr. George
Tj'son , General Auditor of the road at
Boston , who , it is claimed , came herewith
with the mission to reorganize the
Treasurers' and Auditors' departments
of the road. Mr. Tyson -was in con-
bultation a great part of the day with
Mr. C. E. Perkins , Vice-President
and Geiicral Manager , and Mr. J. L.
Lathrop , late Auditor of the Hanni
bal & Sh Joe railroad , was also with
them part of the time. . . It is said that
Mr. Tyson will bo made Treasurer of
the road in place of Mr. A. T. Hall ,
and the headquarters of this depart
ment will be removed to Boston. Mr.
A. T..JIall is to , remain in this city as
local Treasurer. JSIr. J. L. Lathrop is
mentionpd'fer Iho position of Auditor
and ( jpriund Supervisor of Accounts ,
with headquarters in this city. Mr.
friwucl 1'owull , General Ticket Agent , .
has liocn oifcrcd the position of Ticket
Auditor , but he lias not yet
jiwde up his mind whether to
act-cut , it , * or not. From this
it-wtmhrscwu.that a new man is to be
apiKiintcd as general ticket and pas
senger -.igcnt. For this position iho ,
name of Mr. E. A. Tonzelin , at pres
ent land commissions of the Burlington
and Missouri Hiver railroad , is men
tioned , It is claimed , however , that
Mr. Tonzelin docs not want the posi
tion. Yet ho may bo prevailed upon
bj' Mr. Perkins , who has great confi
dence in his abilities , to accept If he
Tloes , it is very likely that Mr. Arthur
-Gorham , late assistant landcommis-
sioncr of thu Atdusoii , Tyj > cka & San-
tarForailroad , will bo Mr. Tonzcliii's
suoccssor.

Copies of the instructions justissucd
by Gen. Terry to the different com
manders in his department , have been
received at military liadquarters in this

. fan try , and companies D and G of thi
llth infantry , which havoalready been
detached to establish a summer camp
and depot of supplies in the neighbor
hood of Bear Butte , in Dakota. From
this camp the supplies of the entire
command will bo drawn , and upon it
as a base , will the operations of tin
cavalry depend. Gen. S. is instructed
j * o establish liis own headquarters al
this camp. Supplies for the camp
will bo , ' drawn from Forfc Abraham
Lincoln , -where the proper officers of
'the staff departments are instructed to
place stores to meet this demand.
Gen. Sturgis will bo expected to for
ward to the proper officers at Lincoln "
timely requisitions for the supplies
for the field depot. As tha cost of
transporting grain to the depot will
be great , ho wilLre'duce the issuesand
the allowance to animals to the small
est amounts tliat niay i > o .consistent
with -Seeping them in good order for

INDICTMENT OF TWO 1'EKSONS AS THE

CmdftnU Specbl , 17th.v
and which was inteueified by
thrilllngly 'draniaic > ' 1cene of a son
Ending the Iwdy of Jhis own father-in'
Lho shuto of an Ohio medical college ,
was reached to-day in the burial of
Devin's body at North Bend , and in
the indictment by the grand jury of
Charles 0. Morton , the noted resur
rectionist , andJ. Q. Martin , the Jani
tor of the Ohio Medical College.
Dcviii's body arrived this monu'njj ,
in charge of a brother and George C.
Eaton , from Ann Arbor , having been
delayed at Toledo twenty-four hours. ,
Great excitement existed among the
residents at North Bend when the
body arrived , and a crowd o.f several
hundred people gathered around the
grave. Tlio coflin was thrown open ,
and the neighbors who had known
Devin well flocked eagerly to see if
they could recognize in the cadaver
the.features of their dead friend.
From everyone came the exclamation ,
"tliat's Augustus. " There was neb a
shadow of doubt as to his identity.
Decomposition has so far done the
work that there is no reasonable fear
that the grave robbers will again dis
turb the remains.
The grand jury to-day closed its la
bors and disappointed the Harrisons ,
by failing to indict any member of the
faculty of the Ohio Medical college.
The indictments were only against the
janitoroftho college and Morton , the
noted resurrectionist. Two were found
against , liim , one for the Harrison rob
bery arid ono for taking Devin's body. ?
European Grain Trade.

LONDON , June 18. The Mark Lane
Express says : "The ptandirig crops arc
all suffering from continued wet and
cold. It is admitted on all hands
that the excessive humidity of the
[ > ast.sixweeks has scrjously compro
mised agricultural prospects. Until
within Iho post few days the growing
crops in Scotland did not suffer to the
same extent as in England. Now ,
however , matters have changed for
the worse. Floods have occurred in §
many of the low-land districts , doing ©
vast damage. Deprived by the holi-
lays of the principal market day , the
London corn trade has been very
quiet. Transactions mainly retail.
Any elements of strength , wliich , un
der ordinary circumstances , would
have been apparent , have been totally
eliminated from 'the tradu by the
exceedingly heavy arrivals from
abroad , and the values have
consequently evinced a declining ten
dency. Indeed all classes of foreign
wheat have only been salable at a re
duction of fully a shilling on the fort
night ; nor has the concession attract
ed any improvement in the demand ,
as buyers do not appear to think the
lowest point is yet reached , and con
sequently have abstained from.pur
chasing , except in such quantities as
immediate needs dictated. The ne
cessity of rapidly clearing the grain-
laden ships in port has , therefore ,
caused most of the corn to be put in
granaries , which are rapidly filling up.
The increase of stocks will probably bo
great , as enormous shipments of wheat
and maize from America are flooding
iho market just at the time when buy
ers seem least disposed to operate.
Political influences having ceased to
affect trade , an index as to the future
course of prices must be looked for in
the legitimate action of supply and de
mand ; , and although at the moment
great depression prevails , and values
may possibly recede , yet further in-I
creased activity and healthier trade no !
doubt a lower range of values , may b
confidently expected when the bulk o
the Aiuericanshipnients is received a
peace is settled. "With largo arrival
at'ports , of call , the floating cargo trad
for wheat has been duU at about ,
shilling decline. Maize has given wa
fully sixpence. Barley fairly steady.

rNVESTIOATION INCIDENTS.
Associated Press Dispatch. * ,
WASHINGTON , Juno 21. Messrs.
Heed and McMahon had a spirited
passage in th6 Potter committee this
afternoon , Reed charging that the de
mocrats excluded competant evidence
offered by thoRepublicans. McMahon
said Reed must either retract that
charge or prove it. He declared it
was wholly false ; and defied proof of
such action by the Dumocrats in a
ssnglo inctancc. Both gentlemen
reterated their assertion in strong
language.
In the Matthews committco Senator
Allison , just before the final refusal of
Anderson to testify , asked Matthews
if he had any suggestion to make.
Matthews saiJl ho disliked to advise
the committee , but was ready to go on
with the investigation at the conve
nience of the committee. This com
mittee had the courses open , either to
wait until it had power of the Senate
to compel the attendance of Anderson ,
or to get trom the House committee a
copy of the testimony , delivered before
it by Anderson. Ho wished the com
mittee to decide whether it ought to
take that latter course.

A Bemarkablo Case.
Mrs. MaGinnis , a widowlady living
south of the railroad track , had been
sick for nearly a year with chronic in
flammation of the stomach. A month
ago her pF.ysicians gave up all hopes
of her recovery. A neighbor learning
of the critical condition of the widow
called for the purpose of ministering to
her wants. Finding her children
hungry , and nothing in the house 'to
eat , she went home and returned with
a loaf of fresh , light bread , with
which she soon supplied their wants.
One Of the little ones , while
eating a slice , went to the bfld-
side of the invalid , and , breaking off
a piece of the beautiful white bread ,
put it to the mother's lips , and re
quested her to eat. With an effort
the mother swallowed a morsel of the
bread. It tasted so good she request
ed more , which the child gave her.
Next day she was very much better ,
and asked for more of that delicious
bread , and it was given her. She con
tinued to improve on a diet of bread
alone , and strange as it may appear ,
has fully recovered. We met her on
the street to-day , and she requested us
to say that the flour from which that
bread was made is the famous "Red
H. " sold only by J. B. Frenclf&Co. ,
the reliable grocers. Jp -
