Discharged From Custody l)y Order of Judge Bradley. &ENEEAL SCHOHELD SCORED Action of the Latter In Ordering the Arrest of Arincs Characterized as Unlawful, Tyrannical and Capricious Appeal Will Be Taken. Washington, Oct. 10. Judge Brad ley, of the District supreme court, today ordered the discharge from custody of Captain George A. Armes, who was ar rested on the order of lieutenant Gen eral Schofield just prior to the latter's retirement from command of the army for having -written him an insulting let ter. Judge Bradley scored the action of the latejjeneral of the. army, character izing it as unlawful, tyrannical and ca pricious. In discharging Captain Armes, whose arrest and confinement General Scho field had ordered by virtue of his posi "Ttiorijas acting secretary of war, Jdge Bradley says: "No charge waspre f erred against Armes at the time' "of his CAPTAIN GEORGE A. ARMES, RETIRED. arrest, no crime has been filed since, and no confinement since his arrest was nec essary. The aires t and confinement were unnecessary and oppressive. As theioffense charged would, upon sub stantiation, result only in reprimand, suspensiou or dismissal, the possession of tlie body of the accused was not nec essary to carry out the charges, as would have been the case if imprisonment or death was to be the sentence." Speaking of the president's power in army matters, tho judge said: "Tho preadent of tho United States is com-mador-iu-chief of tho officers of the army on the retired list. This function of the. chief executive, however, is unac companied by harrowing career and weighty responsibility. His title of com-maader-in-chief , so far as it relates to retired officers, is shorn of all power to impose duties, and appears to be an emrky name." Tke judge advocate general .of the warf department has determined to take- an appeal from the decision of Judge Bradley. This will carry tho matter to the court of anneals of tho GOOD SHOWING IS 31 ABE. Work on the Missouri Presents an Unsur passed Example of Engineering. Washington, Oct. 10. General Oraighill, chief of engineers, has re turned to Washington from a tour of in spection of the river and harbor works in the upper Mississippi and Missouri valleys. He found the government pro jects there in a most gratifying state of progress, and the result of Ms observa tions doubtless will serve to strengthen the hands of tho western people in their application to congress for liberal appro priations to improve their great water ways. Tho works on the Missouri in particular have been pushed forward with remarkable speed by Colonel Suter, and in General Craighill's estimation present an unsurpassed example of suc cessful engineering. In one stretch of 18 miles in tho neighborheod of St. Joseph, as a result of the improvements, 55,000 -acres of new land were deposited by the river, thus adding not only to tho agricultural resources of that section, but by narrowing the river, greatly im- proving navigation. In addition to this the works have protected 13,000 acres of farm land from erosion. COVKRNJIENT ItErORT OX COTTO Decline of Over Five Points From the Sep tember Condition. Washington, Oct. 10.

She hoped the present ifeeeting would be the means of the outgrowth of many warm permanent friendships. She said and tne true aim of clubs should be to love and know each other, and with that as their aspiration, she again bid the dele gates welcome. Mrs. Condee re sponded. Reports of officers and standing com mittees being called for, those of the latter were reported to have been made at a preliminary meeting yesterday in order to save time, so the officers' re ports were taken up. ETISCOrAI, CONVENTION. Opponents of Revision Show Their Hand In the IIpu.se of Deputies. Minneapolis, Oct. 10. The opponents of constitution revision in the Episcopal church showed their hand in the house of deputies tcday, when Stephen Nash offered a resolution calling for the com mitment of the constitution to a new" rc visioual commit tee. It was ruled out of order. A motion to strikeout section 3,which provides for tho office of "primate," to bo held by tho senior bishop, was de feated 178 to 120. When section 4 was taken up, Judge Fairbanks of Florida moved to amend by restoring tho number of clerical and lay deputies from each diocese to the present number of four. This was- ac cepted with practical unanimity. Buch anan Winthrop was re-elected treasurer of the convention. The house of bishops took up the pro posal for tho erection of the dicceso of Marquette, north Michigan, which was favorably voted on by the deputies yes terday. Tho bishops voted in favor of the division. ILLINOIS FEDERATION- OF LATCOR. Warm DiscnsrJon Over a Resolution of Sympathy With Debs. Peoria, Oct. 10. At the meeting of the State Federation of Labor a resolu tion was reported that E. V. Debs was unjustly condemned to imprisonment, being sent there without trial by jury, extending sympathy to him so far as the methods employed by judge Woods had caused his incarceration, but "not in dorsing the warfare being waged by Mr. Debs against trades unionism generally, and the Various railroad brotherhoods in particular, and calling upon him to ceaso his unholy stab at the only means that can be used by tho wage workers to better their condition." This resolution drew out a red hot, protracted discussion, during . whioh Debs was both highly and warmly eulo gized and violently criticised and de nounced. Finally Jhe -.resolution- was sliehtlv modified and adopted. NO arONEY FOR MISSIONARIES. Conjp"0ntional Society In Unusual S trait o Financially. New York, Oct. 10. The Congrega tional Home 2Iisriouary society is in un usual straits financially. It is in debt to the banks $179,000. its treasury is empty and, :nasnmch as only $100,000 of the indebtedness is-seenred by collat eral, the banks have refused further un secured leans. The salaries of the home missionaries were due Oct. 1. Failure to receive them, means in many cases borroving of local banks at liigh rates of interest. The society is absolutely dependent for the time being upon tho gifts of churches and individuals. The present situation is due not only to tho hard times, but tho chronic omission of tho Congregational churches to take the missionary collections in the sum mer and early fall. Tho sevority of tho crisis is but temporary. WHEAT MARKET DEPRESSED. Shorts Have Recovered From Their Scare. Frovlsions Easy. Chicago. Ost. 10.

During thefuneral of an army veteran at Port Huron Father Spath, the Catholic priest who officiated, forbade the pallbearers to en ter his church while wearing G. A.

Bishop Fdley was seen hero and asked about tho matter. He said that no rulo prevailed which would prohibit tho wealing of Grand Amiybadges in the, churches and that the Port Huron priest had committed an egregious, blunder if he excluded the pallbearers as stated.

MADE IN CONGRESS. CAT CHY PHRASES THAT HAVE COME INTO COMMON USE. Tho First Buncombe Speech "Was Delivered In 1820 liialno and ConklJns: In Debate. Famona Sentences Pronounced by States men When Not In Congress. Many of tho host known and most quoted phrases with which tho Amer ican people are familiar originate in congress. There is no reason why, if a good thing is said upon tho floor of the senate or house, tho country should not know it in 24 hours. With a press gallery thronged with correspondents who are always ready and eager to pick up the novel phrase or the apt description, with tho great press associations distributing the debates from one end of the country to the other, and with newspapers only too anxious to give currency to the lat est expression, a man who says a good thing in congress one afternoon may wako up tho next morning and find his saying in everybody's mouth. There is something in tho atmosphere of con gress, too, that develops the latent wit, and inspires to repartee. If a senator or a representative has anything in him at all, it is bound to come out in a rough and tumble debate with a political op ponent. Many of the congressmen have already had their genius in this direc tion tested upon the stump and know how to hold their own in the face of all comers. It does not always follow, how ever, that a statesman who is good in debate will achieve f amo by uttering a phrase that becomes popular. To go back to tho beginning of con gressional history is to discover many phrases uttered in congress which are still current. It was as far back as 1820, for instance, that Felix Walker, a mem ber of the North Carolina district which included Buncombe county, apologized for tho emptiness of his remarks by stating that he had to make a speech "just for Bniieombe. " This is a saying which has como down through the years as a byword. "Liberty and union, ono and inseparable, now and forever, " was uttered by Webster in his famous reply to Hayne. Lincoln's "with malice to ward nono and charity toward all" was first, heard in the halls of congress when his second inaugural address was read to tho assembled representatives. In later years Senator Ingalls contributed a number of epigrammatic sentences, tho best known of which perhaps was utter ed in his wordy duel with Senator Brown of Georgia. Tho latter had a habit of rubbing his hands together as he talked, and Ihgalls, with bitter em phasis, described him as "washing his hands with -invisible soap in impercept ible water. r' Another remark by In gaTJ's waH much bvbWd at tho tim& He Bottle Ax Plug TTLE fk$ JUMPED INTO PUBLIC FAVOR ON account jdf its size and qualrots a Great Big Piece OF HIGH GRAtm 'TOBACCO FOR IF AMD Gi? ATN. Order by telephone from was discussing tho-oleomargarine bill and said regarding certain dairy prod ucts that ho stood "in awo at their strength and reverence for their antiq uity. " In Proctor KnorVswidoly copied Duluth speech occurs that phraso, "tho zenith city of the unsalted seas," a titlo which Dniuth has always proudly kept. Blamo and Conkhug, with all their greatness, left no singlo phrase as a leg acy of their participation in congres sional debates. "Burn these letters" was often quoted after the Mulligan af fair, but this sentence was not first ut tered in congress. The famous debate between tho two men, which estranged their whole lives, occurred in April, i860, over a very trivial matter the continuanco of the bureau of tho provost marshal general. It gavo Blaine, how ever, a chanco to satirize Conkhug in a singlo sontence. An article written by Theodore Tilton had appeared in which inkling had been likened to Winter Davis. "Th"(Tresem bianco is great," ox- claimed Blaine, with trancent satire. 'It is striking ! Hyperion to a satyr, Thersites to Hercules, mud to marble, a dunghill to a diamond, a singed cat to Bengal tiger, a whining puppy to a roaring lien. " Another debate in which Conkling, then in tho senate, wa3 a conspicuous figure, resulted in a" sentence which has not been forcotten. Senator Lamar of Mississippi had resented as a falsehood a charge of broken faith made by Mr. Conkling, and the latter retorted that Lamar was a coward, a blackguard and a liar. Tho Mississippi senator, who had never been accused of cowardice, looked over to, his opponent and. sarcastically apologized for his firstremark. "It was one," ho said, "snch as no good man would deserve and no bravo man would wear." Then he waited for Conkling to reply, but the New York senator was si- ent , Many of tho sharp things said in con gress are left out of The Becord. Cobb's Where was I at?" does not appear in official print, and Senator Wolcott's quotation of tho Spanish proverb to Senator Carey, "It is a waste of lather :o shavo an ass," has also been cutout. A few famous sentences came very near having their origin in congress. Davy Crockett, the author of "Be sure you'ro right, then go ahead" was a member of the house of representatives for two years, but it does not appear that this oft quoted advice was originated with him there. Henry Clay's "I would rath er be right than president" was said to tome friends at the capitol, but not in public debate. Senator Sherman, too, is the author of tho "mending fences" phrase, although he waited until he was at his home in Mansfield beforo he ut tered it. Whilo Hayes was still presi dent and Mr. Sherman was secretary of the treasury he entertained hopes of a presidential nomination. Just before the Republican national convention met he went to Mansfield, and while there was called upon for a speech. In the course ox nis remarks JHf- boernian denied nav- ing traveled to Ohio to promote his pres idential aspirations. "I have simply come, lie saia, to menu myiences, which are greatly in need of repair. " Washington Post in the lead Newton's Book Store. R. D. THOMSON, tatractor and Builder. 127 Sixth SI.
