Tho Indians turned westward, on being
followed by Lauton's and IlaUtead's com
mand;, and were near South Barbara and

AWAITING HEVZIjOPIIENTS.
The session of tLe cabinet today, which
was somewhat longer than usual, was
mainly devoted to tho consideration of tho
Canadian fishery troubles. Action was
postponed, it is understood, in order to
await the receipt of more definite and de
tailed information from Consul General

The house committee on tbo judiciary to
day decided to report adversely on various
amendments to ike consf'tution, proposing
that senator, postmasters and judges shall
bo elected by a vote of tbo people.
Senator ilandcrson, from the committee
on military affaire, reported favorably the
bill which recently passed tbo bouse, appro
priating S1GO,000 for the construction of
additional quarters at tho Soldiers' homes at
Hampton, Milwaukee and Leavenworth.
Senator Blair introduced & bill to restore
to officer j of the army and tbeir widows and
minor children, tho rato of pensions they re
ceived prior to July 25, 1880. at which dato
certain classes of pensions wero reduced.
The bouse committee on naval affairs to
day practically completed the naval appro
priation bill and it will probably be reported
to the bouse tomorrow. The bill appropri
ates about $11,750,000, while tho estimates
submitted by the navy department contem
plated an expenditure of $30,83G,357 the
appropriations for tbo current year is 1G,
OlO.TOu. Tho striking discrepancy apparent
b&twexn the appropriation for the next year
and the estimates of tho department is ex
plained by the fact that all of tbo items in
cluded in the. estimates for consummation,
aggregato $I-i,81G,36S, aro omitted from the
appropriation bill and form tho substanco
of lbs special bill for tbo now mail service
establishment already reported by tbe
bouse.
IJcprcsentitivo Payson, of Illinois, has
prrpired a report on tho bill preventing
nliei'S from acquiring real estate m tho
United States. The report says tho bill has
for its purpose tho proposition that Ameri
can soil tliall bo owned by Americans so
far as congress can control it.
Tbo committee on public lands in this
congress, as in tbo last, is thoroughly com
mitted to the policy of so administering
our public land system that tbe agricultural
lands of the nation shall not be parted with
without tlicy aro held by actual settlers.
1'ublisln'd statements show 20,747,000 acres
of land aro held by foreigners. Tho bill,
which the report accompanies, provides
that an alien foreigner who has declared his
intention to bi-como a citizen of tho United
Stales, nor any corporation, one-tenth of
whose stock is owned or controlled by aliens
or foreigners shall have tho right to acquire
real estate in any ol tho territories of tho
United States. Tbo bill has been agreed
upon by tho committee and will probably
be reported this week.
FORTY-NINTH CONGRESS
Senate.
Wamiinoto, Ma3" 20. In tbo senate to
day Mr. Mandersoa reported favorably lrom
tbo coinimttw on military affairs, a bill to
authorize tba Chejcnno Northern railway to
build a railway across tbo Ft. Kusscll and
Yu Lsrainiu reservation, l'assed.
Tbo StMtn Island bridro bill was then
laid before tho senate and Mr. Mcl'herson
resumed his speech agninst tho bill and in
support cf his amendment providing for a
tunnel instead of a bridge.
Mr. Fryo favored tho bridgo bill and said
of courto any bridge at tbe point indicated
would somewhat interfere with the water
route, but tho great advantage to the com
merce ol the whole country, especially of
tbo west, hi- the buildingofthe bridge would
mere than amply compensate for the loss to
commerce on the water route. Sailing ves
sels, he ssid, rarelj-used the stream which it
was propottM to bridge.
Mr. A est said the jieoplo of tho country
BCtmcJ not to appreciate tbo great change
that had taken place in tho transportation
business of tbo country. Tho strugglo in the
present case was intensified by a struggle
between the Pennsylvania and tbe llaltimore
and Ohio Railway companies. Tho Penn
sylvania company was anxious to keep the
11. V O. out of 2ow York city. It was tbe
old storv.
Mr. Mcl'herson remarked, that if other
companies in tba future wanted the sruo
privilege this would bo taken to be a prece
dent. Mr. Vest thought that was an argument
nsaiiist the building cf any bridges at all.
Would Mr. Mcl'herson "have no brieges
built at ait! The steamboat interests of tbe
Mississippi river had opposed the bnilding
of the Su Louis bridgo and prophesied the
destruction of tha commerce of that river.
Even the engineer had hold a convention
and declared the St. Louis bridgo would bo
'a failure as engineering work; yet It was
standing and n ould stand, apparently, as
long as the banks of the river.
At 2 o'clock tho bankruptcy bill was
placed before tbe senate and temporarily
laid aside to permit further consideration of
tho bridge Ml!.
Mr. Dolph spoke in support of tbe bridge.
Mr. Sewell and Mr. Edmunds opposed the
Mil. The latter said he hoped and believed
some of us would live to see tbe establish
ment of an internal water way that would
extend nil tho way to Xew Orleans, and he
believed this little stream, the' Arthurkill,
was the key to such a water way.
Mr. Gorman and Mr. Miller supported the
measure.
An amendment offered by Mr. Vest was
agreed to, authorizing the secretary of war.
if hu should deem any alteration of the
bridgo necessary, or the entire removal of
tbe bridgo necessary to avoid obstruction to
commerce, be may order its alteration or
removal at the expense of the owners, and
if the bridgo bo not commenced witbin two
years the ngbt to build shall cease and ter
minate. Mr. Mcl'herson's amendment (for a tun
nel insterd of n.bridRe) was rejected yeas
5, nays 40. The senators voting in the af
firmative were: Bowen, Hampton, McPhcr
son. Plumb and Sewell.
Mr. Vocrbees as a. western man could not
vote to shut out railroad competition from
the west to tbe ocean. lie thought the at
tempt of a railroad company to get to ew
York Citv a move which could only retail
in advantage to the west and east alike.
After further debate the voting down of
tomo amendments the bill was passed as
received from tho committee, with the sole
addition of Mr. Vest's amendment.
The roll call on one of tbe amendments
disclosed the fact that no quorum voted; bat
id there was clearly a quorum in the cham
ber (several senators who were paired bav
ins refrained from voting) the call for jea
and nays was by unanimous consent with
drawn. Tbe bankruptcy bill was then laid before
the senate and the senate aajourcea.
House.
Mr. Holman, of Indiana, from the com
mittee on appropriations, reported the exec
utive, lOglfJBllTa KUUjuuiu aiiuiwatuu
bill and it was referred to committee of tho
whole.
The house went into committee of the
hole en tbe senate amendment to tbe post
office appropriation bill. The amendment
sets apart $40,000 of the appropriation for
the free delivery service, for tho estab
lishment of the free delivery system in
cities where it is not now established. It
was concurred in. Tho amendment was re
jected which authorizes the postmaster gen
eral to contract for inland and foreign steam
boat service, where it can be continued in
one route; also an amendment to increase by
$80,000 the appropriation for railroad poEt-
omce service. Amendment concurred in to
increase by $40,000 the appropriation for
all necessary special facilities on trunk lines.
The foreign mail service amendment hav
ing been reached, Mr. Blount, of Georgia,
moved a non-concurrence in it.
Mr. Burrows, of Michigan, moved con
currence in the amendment with an amend
ment thereto, providing that not exceeding
$000,000 of the amount hero appropriated
shall be expended tn payment of American
steamship lines for tho transportation of
mails, that so much of the balance as may bo
required shall be expended in increasing the
frequency of the postal service by American
built steamships between tho United States
and foreign countries not now served by
American steamsnip lines.
After debate the committee of tho wholo
rejected 86 to 142 tho Burrows amend
ment. As this was regarded as a test vote.
The announcement of tho result was greeted
with cheers by tho Democratic side.
The committee then non-concurred in the
senate $80,000 amendment and reported its
action to the house. The house confirmed
by meie than two-tbirds vote, tho action of
the committee in rejecting lha so-called
subsidy amendment to tho postoffico bill in
serted by tbe senate.
Mr. GofT, of Virginia, said if ho were
postmaster general every mail of his coun
try would be carried in a ship floating tbe
American flag.
Mr. Dougherty, of Florida, offered an
amendment providing $200,000 shall bo ex
pended for the establishment of a mail lino
from a gulf port to ports in Central and
Southern America.
Mr. Taylor, of Tennessee, offered an
amendment pr-ividing that $100,000 shall
be applied to Jthe transportation of foreign
mails by existing lines running from gulf
ports to Central and South American ports.
Mr. Ilcwilt, of New York, moved to strike
out the appropriation for 8800,000 and in
sert ono of $400,000, and to add to the scn-
ato amendment tho following: Tbo post
master general shall, as far as possible, cause
tbo mails of the United States to be carried
to and from said places respectively, in
American built and registered steamships;
provided tho same can be carried for a rea
sonable compensation, to bo by him de
termined, but not exceeding tho rate of 00c
per nautical mile for tbo distance, usually
provided in the most direct and feasible
courso between terminal points hereinbefore
specined.
Mr. Barry of Mississipi, opposed tho sen
ate amendment on tho ground that it was a
subsidy.
Mr. Mills of Texas, characterized the
amendment as a donation of $700,000 to
American ship builders, chief of whom was
John Itoacb.
Mr. Price of Wisconsin, said that subsidy
was the theory that underlay every pro
gressive institution throughout tho land
everything subsidized down to tho salt
water and then congress became frightened
and stood still while tbo American snips
were driven from the sen.
Mr. Findlay, of Marylind, favored tho
amendment.
Mr. Morrison of Illinois, opposed the ro-
turn to tbe subsidy policy which was in
volved in the amendment ot tho senate.
Mr. llandall of Pennsylvania, called atten
tion to tho curious spcctaclo presented by
tbo senato amendment which involved an
expenditure of $400,000, but which had not
ono word ofexecutivo department or ap
proval to commend it. There was no esti
mate for tho appropriation. It emanated
from the senate, a body which had been
contending for years against putting any
general legislation on appropriation bills. In
voting upon this amendment be wanted
every member to range himself on tbo side
wbero ho expected to stay to tho end. (Ap
plause on Democratic side.)
Mr. Blount, of Georgia, cloacd tho debate
and strongly opposed tbo senate amendment.
Tho issuo was plain clear cut, and for one
he was willing as a Democrat to take tho re
sponsibility for his action.
Mr. Burrows' amendment was rejected
82 to 139.
Tho amendment offered by Mr. Taylor, of

Tho houso then adjourned.
Not Exactly.
New Haven, Conn., May 20. Walter
Blaine was in this citr a short time yester
day. To an inquiry if his father was getting
in trim for 1888, ho replied: 'Not exactly.
A presidential contest with which father has
nothing to do would be a novolty, wouldn't
it! But I don't supporo he thinks of being
a candidate, lie is, however, greatly inter
ested in tbo success of his party."

Refuse to Report.
Cmciiao, May 20. The Rock Island road
has refused to report its business lo tho com
missioners of the Livestock Freight associ
ation, following tho example of tho Missouri
Pacific and Omaha road. The pool has
been in existence a year and by the action
of the company in refusing to'pav its bal
ances on revenuo from drosod beef, the
transportation has been virtually inopera
tive, no settlement between members ever
having been made. Unless some compro
mise is reached there is no possibility of
rates going higher, through rales to Omiha
becoming completely paralyzed.

Ten Hours or Nothing
Chicago. May 20. I. D. Armour said last
night: "We will give our men notice soon,
before the ens! of the month, that we desire
to return to the old ten-hour svstem or shut
up."
When this statement was made to Presi
dent McElligar, ef tbe trades assembly, he
remarked: "That's just what I feared."
The men have decided to offer to work
eight hours tor eight hours par rather than
go back to the old system. The president
remarked that it the other packers accept
those terms ho was fearful for the eight
hoar movement, with 2,600 persons put
back.
The lumber shovers are whipped, the
moulder are discomfitted, and things look
bine, I would sot be surprised to see a
general backward movement.

The State Seems to be Making out a

THE SECOND DAY.
Of the New Famous Prellor-Max-well
Murder Case at St. Louis.
St. Louis. May 20. Tho first witness in
the Maxwell case this morning was a barber,
John A. Anno, doing business at o. 15,
North Broadway, near tho Southern hotel.
Maxwell came to his shop between C and 7
o'clock on tbo evening of April 6tb, 1886.
His hair and beard wero both very long. He
asked to havo the former trimmed and tbe
latter shaved off. The barber did this.
Maxwell them asked him if anyone could
recognize him if he had known him when
his hair and beard were long. The witness
told kim such a thing would be impossible
and Maxwell seemed pleased at the assur
ance. The prisoner bad talked like a par
rot ail the time ho wa in tho shop and told
lots of stories about hi.r.self. Ho said ho
was going into tbe country for a day or two
but would soon return.
Tho counsel for the prifoi.e r in the cross
examination tried to show that Maxwell had
evinced no uneasiness and seemed uncon
scious as to whether or not his having been
shaved had altered his appearance, but the
answers to his questions showed that tbe
contrary had been the caso. The prisoner
looked nervously round whenever anyone
entered the room. lie was continually
slipping down in the chair as if to not at
tract attention.
Samuel A. Hughes, ticket agent of tbo
Son Francisco railway, was the next witness.
lie identified tho prisoner as the man to
wl cm ho sold a ticket to San Frai.cisco on
April Ctb, 18S5. Ho identified the ticket
which bore bis own signature and that of H.
M. Brooks. The prisoner nad made no in
quiry as to price of ticket and when he paid
for it drow forth a large roll of bills of large
denominations.
Tho defenso waivercd cross-examination.
Geo. J. lless, pawnbroker: Had met tbe
prisoner on the 3rd or 4th of April, 18SS.
The prisoner wanted to borrow $25 on a
watch chain. The witness refused to loan
him so much. Tbe prisoner tried to tell
him some other articles, saying be must have
money. On Monday after Easter Sunday
the prisoner called again and purchased a
flute for $8 and a set of diamonds paying
for them with a $100 bill which he selected
from a roll of bills of tho same denomina
tions. The witness noticed nothing unusual
in tho prisoner's talk or action on the
second visit.
Albert Sales, an optician, testified that the
prisoner accompanied by some ono whom
be did not know, called at bis place of busi
ness and wished to sell a magic lantern out
fit Maxwell wore a black moustache and
be thought be would recognize him if bo
shouldseo him again. Ho identified a pho
tograph of Preller's friend. Some days af
terward tbe prisoner bought from the wit
ness a pair of field glasses and a manicure
set, tendering in payment for tbe same a
$100 bill. Ho drew a largo roll of money
from his pocket when he paid tbo bill.
Frederick Berger, a trunk maker, testified
that the prisoner had bought from him a
canvas covered trunk and packing case on
Monday, April Ctb, and in paying for them
he drew from his inner coat pocket a large
roll of bills composed mostly of those of
large denominations, come time later in
tho day be returned to tbe store and bought
two large trunk straps tho straps taken
from around tho trunk in which Preller's
body was found were brought in and identi
fied by witness as those sold to the prisoner.
Tbe witness was shown two trunk boards
found in tho packing caso and asked if they
were parts of the tray. He said they were
not, but said tbey were pieces off another
trunk, tbe packiug case had no tray. The
zinc trunk in which Preller's body was
found was bought before tbe witness who
was asked to tell as an expert whether the
tray had ever belonged in it.
Mr. Fountlcroy, counsel for tho defense,
objected to expert testimony on the point,
but his objection was overruled, and witness
answered it was. Exception was taken to
the ruling. The point was an important
one, as tbo tray and partition was found in
tbe packing case.
a William Frum, a Southern hotel porter,
recognized tbo truuks (bought from Berger)
as thoso he bad carried to the prisoner's
room on the same day they were bought.
When bo entered tbe room, the zink trunk
was in the middle of the floor, and clothes
were scattered about and heaped in piles.
Ho lifted one end of the zinc trunk to see if
it was packed, and thought it weighed 170
or ISO pounds a heavy weight for a trunk
of that size. The occupant of the room, the
prisoner, ordered him to take down tbe can
vass covered trunk and place jt on an omni
um wnicn was going 10 mo anaaiia uepou
Maxwell got into the 'bus and was driven
awav. That was the last time witness saw
the defendans.
Lewis F. Duff, dealer in hats, recognized
the defendant as tbe purchaser of a peculiar
kind of hat on E&stAr Monday, whieh hn
said he wanted, for it would make him look
like a Yankee; defendant was very nervous
at tbe time.
J. A. W. Fcrno, owner of tha drug store
on tbe comer ot 1 illn and Market streets,
one block from tbe Southern hotel, recog
nized defendant as Dr. Maxwell; saw him in
bis stere several times prior to and on Easter
Sunday. Ho purchased several little arti
cles; said ho was a doctor; thought cf locat
ing in St. Louis; said be expected a friend
from Canada, and a day or to before Sun
day he called and said his friend had arrived.
About 1 p. tn. on Easter Sunday he came
into the store and purchased four ounce of
chloroform and some carbolic acid. About
p. ro. he returned and asked for another
four ounce sot chloroform. Witness enly had
about that quantity left and gave him only
two ounces. Defendant object, but took the
two ounces, tearinr the wet label from the
bottle. He said ho had accidentally knocked
over tbe first bottle of chloroform, spilled
the contents, and wanted another supply as
quickly as possible. He did not appear to
be excited, only in a harry.

The Bloody Apaches
Kaksas Cnr, May 20. A Tombstone,
A. T., special says: The number of persons
murdered by the Apache within gunshot of
Xogales, Arizona, during tbo past lour
weeks now numbers forty-two. Tbe size of
the raiding bands and their boldness leaves
no doubt that they havo been recruited from
tbo discharged scouts.
There aro well founded reports of further
depredations from the San Corlas reserva
tion and old settlers bejievo that if this out
break is not quelled within thirty days
Arizona will witness some of tho bloodiest
depredations this summer from Apaches ever
known. There are strong fears hero if the
government should not let the frontiersmen
show what they can do by organizing a body
of volunteers.
ELECTED FOR TEN YEARS.
The New York Board of Alderman
a Training School for Sing
Sing.
Ukw York, May 20. Alderman Jaehne
was this morning sentenced by Judge Bur
nett to nine years and ten months imprison
ment at Sing Sing.
The court of oyer and terminer was filled
this morning with a .crowd anxious to hear
Judge Barnett pronounce the sentence upon
Alderman Henry W. Jaehne, convicted of
bibcry in connection with tho Broadway
railroad franchise. Tbe district attorney
moved for tbe sntnce to be passed on tbe
prisoner. General Prior, Jaehno's counsel
then made motions for tho arrests of judg
ment and a new trial, but both were denied.
Jaehne then stood up for sentence In reply
to a question 01 toe cierir, ne gave nis age as
tbirly-six. He was asked what he had to
say why iudirmcnt should not bo pro
nounced airainst him according to law. He
madono reply. Judge Bamett then sen
tenced tho prisoner to nine years and ten
months in tho state penitentiary. Ho said
the prisoner bad been convicted after a fair
trial; had had every advantage that a defend
ant could have, together with ablo counsel.
The case was a sad one. It was a humiliat
ing spectacle. But no man was over selected
to fill a public office in this city wbo bad so
heinously bctraved the trust a tho prisoner
had.
It was humiliating to the people of tho
city, state and country, that such a specta
cle should bo presented in a freo govern
ment of tho people. It was sad to SM a
man with the prisoner's advantages in tbe
position in which ho now is. "There wns
no doubt as to your guilt. It was unani
mously conceded when the evidence was in
that it was against vou. It was a clear con
viction, overwhelming. There was no
doubt of your guilt but there was a doubt
concerning the chances of convicting you."
The lir.t doubt seems to have arisen from
tbe lack of an efficiency of the jury system,
the zeal of our public prosecutor and the
efficiency of our police. Theso doubts will
be dispelled by your conviction. It teaches
an important lesson. Let rao say that your
offense was not technical bribory, but stu
pendous bribery fer tbe furtherance of a
stupendous transaction."
In conclusion Judge. Barnett said: 'It
only remains now for mo to pass the sentence
in your case. The maximum penalty will
not be imposed. Under the recent statute
where the maximum penalty is abridged,
tbe prisoner has this advactage, that in ad
dition to his commendation for good be
havior, ho can leave the state prison between
the months of March and May. Appeals
have been made to me to be merciful in your
case. I am not unmiudful of the sufferings
of your lamily. No undue severity will j
exercised towards vou. I have therefore in
structed the sheriff not to send you immedi
ately to the state prison. You will be con
veyed to the city prison, where you will
have an opportunity to consult your coun
sel in regard to tbe appeal in your case."
Lawyer Xewcombe. on affidavits made by
himself and Jaehne, containing tbe legal
points raised during the trial andexception
taken, arrived from Judge Daniels' court
with a stay of proceedings and an older to
show cause why astay of proceeding should
not be msde permanent pending the Inal.
The arguments will be beard this afternoon
at 3 o'clock.
Copies of the order were served on the
sheriff and granted by Dulrtct Attorney
Martyn.
Jaehne is in the custody of Warden Fean.
of the Tombs.
According to the remission made for pood
conduct, Jaehne will actually have to servo
six years four months and eleven days.
Tho annlirftiinn far a stay of execution of
judgment in the Jaehne bribery case was
argued before Judge Daniels in tbe supreme
court this afternoon.
General Prior argued for tbe nay, and
Assistant District Attorney Nichall oppoveJ
it for the people. Judge Daniels denied tbe
motion and Jaehne will be taken to Sicg
Sing in the morning.
