chapter is devoted to the subject of
armament of fortiGcations , in whisli
General Bunnntt says ; With the very
pressing need for sna coast armament
constantly before us. it ehould suem
oxpadiont to take advantage of our
own roaouroea to help provide for our
wania. It will dou lleeaha practicable
for us to produce guns of moderate
power , even from cast iron , provided
cast iron ba suitably strengthened
with steel hoops , or hotter , with hoopa
on exterior and steel tubes on the in

For the defense of thn country our

cided to appeal to ' dgo Snoll to
have the amount reduced , Pnyno's
case will come up for hearing Tucs

Falls' case.
Judg ) Stool accepted a bond of
$2,500 nnd Fall wan retained , to ap
pear biforo the police court from duy

so.
TUB STAR ROUTE JURY.
The department of justice to-day
made public the first part of the re
port of special counsel , II. II. Wolla ,
appointed to aid in the trial of certain
criminal ofiunaoa alleged to have been
committed in the progress of the re-
cunt trial of the otar route cases BO
cjllud. Wolh aaya : The ntlidavits
show , if they uro to bo believed , that
membcra of the jury were offered
bribes in money for their votes , which
thny listened to nnd considered with
the persons thus attempting to do-
biuch them , and these solicitations ,
it is alleged , proceeded as well from
agents of the government as from
agents of persona on tml ; but I as
sume it can make no difference whose
agents made the disgraceful proposa1 ? ,
nnd that condign punishment uhcmld
Fall upon all guilty parties.
The case ot Juror Edwin A.
Doniphau is first considered ,
[ t appeara before tbo jury was sworn
ono Frederick E Shaw , member of
, ho regular panel , aaid to Duniphan
ie would like to got "on this caoe , "
ind having bctm peremptorily olul-
onged by Merrick foe the United
S rates , ho abused Morrick. From the
iffidavit of James Leonard it appears
mmodiatoly after Shaw had toatilidd
.hat ho waa an impartial juror and had
30011 rejected , ho said , "Oh , well ,
damn it , they will never convict them
anyhow. If I was on there
[ would hang out until hell
iroza over before they should
bo convicted. " At another time later
10 said he "would do anythinij in the
world to aavo Doraoy. " Shiw said to
Domphan , "Look here , I'vo got a
damned good thing for you , and I
will make a little mysolftao. I have
got money in my pocket to give you
i you will favor S. W. Doraoy. I
[ lave two or three hundred dollars I
can give you now and will make it a
thousand within ton days. "
Juror Wm. K. Brown makes aQi
lavit ho was approached on the part
of the government and off rid $2,600.
"Tho man , " aaya Brown , "was a
member of my lodge. I believe he
did not know what he waa doing.
His nnmo was Arthur Payne ( colored )
He brought mo an agreement. Ho
must have thought I was a damned
fool , I said , who sent you to me I
would like to ECU the man. Ho aaid
his name was Fall , As eoon as ho
said that I was confident they did not
intend to give mo any money but just
to see what I would say. I drove
him away. Ho said he wan to i to
convict Brady and Dorsey , any of
them It was my opinion ho was
putting up a job on me.
When Brown road the agreement
ho was to oign ho said to Payne , "I
am going according to the 'evidence.
Full is a damned rascal , and you can
both go to hell. "
\Vojla sa > a it is apparent from the
whole history of the alleged attumpt
upon Brown's virtue , it was not done
with the knowledge , in bahalf or in
the interest of the prosecution ; that
its guilty authors were neither agents
nor acted with the knowledge or ap
proval of any officer of the department
of justioa , and it was a carefully pre
pared conspiracy against the adminis
tration of justice. The prosecution
of Fall , Ptiyno , Thomas and Foote
and others not named , is recommend
ed for attempting to corrupt Brown.
The originals of the aflidavits pub
lished by Col , Ingersoll uro asked to
iuauro Rucce sful prosecution ,
DANKNUOWKH'H MTOUY.
In the Jtannetto board of inquiry
to-day Lieutcmant D-inonhower told
the story of the wanderings and perils
and sufferings of the men in the jour
ney from Bennett Island , August 0 ,
till September 12 , when thu party
left Stjmeonovflln Island in their boata
for a voyage ucross the open water ,
as it was believed that but little more

lias in effect boun told before in the

AI10UT CHINAMEN ,
The treasury department decides

UOMEHTEAI ) ENTRIES ON LAND OHANTfl ,
The secretary of the interior haa
made a decision in the case of Winzoll
vs. the St. Paul , Minneapolis & Man
itoba railway company , construing the
third section of the act of April 21 ,
1870 , which declared valid the homo
stoAil and prc-ointion entries witliit
the limits of ex .roJ r.-ulroai grant ?
that may have been made at n tlnu
subsequent to the expiration cf the
cranls. The secretary holda that the
language tucd in the net : "at any time
subsequent to the expiration of snch
grant1' refers to dates nnmed in the
various granting acts to railroads na
the dates which roads njiould bo com
pleted nnd not to the time when
by legislative or judicial notion for
feiture might bo declared. Uu nho
holds that settlement and filing cin-
atitutes an entry within the moaning
of the act as wuli as under the gen
eral practice of thu Innd department ;
ns Wenzoll made hi * settlement nnd
Tiling in nccordanco with the preemption
tion law , his entry should cornu within
the confirmatory provisions of the
statute.
