THE POTTER LAW.
DETERMINED OPPOSITION TO THE LAW?A DISCRIMINATION
IN RATES AGAINST WISCONSIN.
Milwadrkn, Feb. 11, 1870.
Very strong opposition is organising against the proposed
modifications of the famous, or infamous, Potter
law, with me expectation of securing favors for this
tcity and other principal potDts In Wisconsin, now said
to be discriminated against in favor ot Chicago by the
Northwestern and St Paul railroads. The Northwestern
is engaged in engineering a bill through tbo Legislature
granting it TOO ffeet of land to be taken from
Lake Michigan, along the entire water front of
this city, for the sum of $40,000, and the Milwaukee
agitators cry out that unless both
the Northwestern and St Paul roads reduce
their rales at least $10 per car on all freight from
nninta in triors Wisconsin and Minnesota to Milwaukee
and Eastern Wisconsin points below the rates to Chicago,
they will torm a strong lobby, not only to defeat
this lako front bill, but to prevent the proposed modifications
of the Potter law being carried into effect. As
the men controlling this movement are accustomed to
lobbying work of this kind, and probably bave personal
ends to serve in the matter, it cannot be denied
that the improvement in the railroad laws of Wisconsin,
so anxiously looked for and so nearly accomplished,
is once more In grave peril.

Important Indictments in Chicago

Sr. Louis, Mo., Fob. It, 1876.
The proceedings to-day wore tor the first Ume spiced
with humor and bauter. The evidence was tho strongest
yet given against the defendant, and it required no
great physiognomist to seo that the Jury were impressed
with its gravity. Uobcock bore himself with
greater nonchalance than on any provlons day, and at
one point burst even into a isugb, quickly concealing,
however, the facial contortion behind his hand. Tho
first witness, Major Grimos, of the Quartermaster's
Department, was a living and eloquent witness to the
excellence of its provisions. His taco is so fat and red
that it would scorn about to burst with the good viands
stulTod within. His testimony as to
THH TURKS 8bckkt lkttkrs
from Babeock, which ho handed to McDonald alter the
letter's Indictment, was evidoutiy unwillingly given,
for, as ho confossed on tho staud, he Is a friend and
crony of the defendant. The prosecution in the closing
argument will make a great point on this testimony,
and claim that this secret correspondence between

conclusively proved the deiondant's complicity.
Thoy will also argue that these throe lettors should be

Innocent Ktorrs' question, whether McDonald had
not Infbrmed Grimes that Babcock was not in tho
Ring, produced a titter, which broadonod tnto
laughter when Dyer asked the witness whether
McDonald had not also informed him that he
(McDonald) was also not in the Ring, and Major
Grimes answered this question affirmatively.
DINING AND WINING AND BSIUINO.
The next important witness formed the most striking
contrast to the rotund and blooming Major.
Deputy Commissioner Rogers is a little, dry man, with
a pule, weaxeued ftice, of a dead complexion and
sunken, tiny optics. He gave his testimony standing
and with olasped hands, as though he were in a do
vottonal attitude. Colonel Brodhead all the morning
kept an unlighted cigar in his mouth, the end of which
he chewed with great apparent gusto. After Rogers
cumo ax-Commissioner Douglass, a heavy, largo man,
with a frosh, ruddy and decidedly good-natured face,
and scant hair streaked with silver covering a very
largo head. When Douglass testified that Draslxar,
one of the revenue agents whom he had sont to St.
Louis to Investigate the frauds, complained of Joyce's
excessivo attention in dining and wining him, as having
Interfered with bis duties, Babcock gave a broad
smile, and it was when Storrs asked Douglass on the
cross-examination whether Brashier also complained
.t.. i.-iyw, ~r rxm o.-ith uiIhaK Ii,,j
bim off, ibat tho defendant laughed outright.
It AYS or Pl.KASANTRT.
The roading of tho numerous offlcial and private despatches
between McDonald and Joyce and Babcock
and Douglass and Rogers gave rise to a good dual of
bantor between the counsel. Uofore Colonel Dyer
could read them he had to pass them to the defendant's
counsel for Inspection. Some of Joyce's sycophantic
and pompous desi>atchos to Douglass?as, for Instance,
where he says he "will be pleased to serve tne honorable
Commissioner anywhere," meaning he was ready
to go to San Francisco as orderod?and his and McDonald's
serio-comical resignations when they found that
their villany had been dragged to the light, called a
smile even to the grove faces of the Judges and kept
the audience, jury and lawyers in good humor. Storrs
declared, with dry satire, that llie prosecution was
making out a very strong case against McDonald. Tho
threat which Babcock wanted to send West with a revenue
agent also caused amusement.
TUB SJK.'RKT OORKBHrONDBBCB.
The first wilnoss called was Major E. B. Grimes, Depot
Quartermaster in the United Slates army stationed
at St. Louis. Major Grimes was introduced by the
prosecution to show that General Babcock carried on a
correspondence with McDonald last fall whilo tbc latter
was under Indictment for complicity in the whiskey
frauds.
Major Grimet said:?I have been in the army
since September, 18tK, 1 know General Babcock, '
having met him first in 1802 in Utah when
1 was District Quartermaster; I saw General Babcock
when bo was here last fall, probably in Sep
teniber, Just boforo fair lime, with the 1'resideniial
partv; ho said to mo that he would probably want to '
send some letters or packages through me to other
parlies; he did not say to whom; after that he sent 1
tbreo letters to me, and I recollect?that is, I suppose?he
sent them; I got s letter addressed to myself,
with another letter in it; that was a short time alter l j '
saw General Babcock here; tho letter enclosed in mine
was in a white envelope, sealed and
marked "McDonald;" tho note to me In the
first letter was simply, "Fleaso dollvor tho |
enclosed letter to MeDouald, 'and it was signed "O.
K. Babcock;" I gave the enclosed to McDonald, 1 think '
at my office; a week or ten days later I received
another letter through tho post office directed tome;
thoro was no note in it, but un envelope, addressed in !
a different hand Irorn that of the first, to McDonald; | <
there was no note to me, but there was a piece of paper
wrapped around the envelope; the third letter was Just
like the second; I dclivored all throe of these letters to I
McDonald; wb' ii one of them raiuo lie was not here, I 1
and In trying to find him 1 met his brother in-law, Tom
Walsh, and told him, but 1 don't know what Walsh !
did.
n'n/i?ii n fi* RtnfVirr !
On the cross-examination Major Grimes said he had
known General Babcuck personally and intimately,
anil that the latter bad been a good friend to hint.
On one occasion when McDonald and McKce were reported
to be using tlietr influence to hava him re- i
moved because he would not put a man in the place
tbut ibey wanted, Babcock promised bia Influence to
preveut the removal. Witncaa in tbe course ot bis
cross-examination said, ' Once when I delivered these 1
letters to McDonald I asked him (McDonald), Did Babcock
have anything to do with this Whiskey Ring?
and ho said, 'Grimes, I don't know; don't believe lie
knows any more about it tban you do, and you know
you don't know anything about it.' "
On tbe redirect examination. Major Grimes was
asked, "Did McDonald in thai conversation say that ho,
himself, didn't know anything about tbe Whiskey
King ?"
Witness?Yos, he did. (Laughter.)
District Attorney?How did you come to ask If Babcock
had anything to do with the Whiskey King?
Witness?I asked lor tho simple reason thai If Bab- |
cock, who bad been my friend, had had anything to do
with It I was going to drop bini.
District Attorney?Wbst reason had you to inspect
the gentleman?
Witness?Nothing but tbe fact of tbe letlors sent
through trie.
Ma|or Grimes was followed bv B H. Engelke, tho
rectifier, who gave an account of bis operations, referring
particularly to amounts of money raised by the
distillers and rectifiers lor revenue agents to keep ibem
still and to obtain information from thant, all ol which
has been repeatedly told. Tbe witness also testified to
having seen, in whole or parts, telegrams, or what purported
to be telegram*. In the hands ot Joyce, Informing
him of contemplated visits ot revonuo officer*,
Witness always straightened up his house on such occasions.
and it almost always happened that agents
came out after information of their coming had been
rocoived.
Tilt nttPCTT mtvgmr* commissiomkr.
H. C. Bogers, Deputy Commissioner of Internal i
Revenue, was then called, and testified that In August,
1874, Mr. Douglass, at that lime Commissioner, asked
him to correspond with Revenue Agent Brooks in re
gurd to making an Investigation of ariuirs at inn ago
and St. l.oma, witness wrote to Brooks, who cam. 10
Washington for oon?ultation; hr. Brooks wished Revenue
Agent Hogs to asslet bim; be wan written to, and j
alter considerable delay be came to Washington,
then wont to Philadelphia to cooler with Brooks; tbty
returned to Washington together and alter several
days left again; witness aald about the Tlh of December
General McDonald came to bla room and
stayed but a few minuton; the next day he
came in and said, "Kogers, I don't want you to tell me
anything, but I want to tall you something, Brooks and
lloge are going to 8t. Louis on special business, and I
protest ugainet such secret investigations; if the officers
there are lit to be in office tbey need no invesligaIton;
If they are not they ought to be removed;" 1 then
telegraphed to Brooke to delay the investigation , W. 0.
Avery was at that time chiel elerk of the Internal Revenue
Bureau; I received letters about that time from
Mr. Brooka, all the letters were addressed to me per- j
tonally, as I intended to deetroy the onrre- ,

KCTARY 12, 1876.?WITH g
November I received a lett?r from Brooka; It referred
to the oout?jnplato<1 Investigations Wont, end said t
something about tho delays being profitable to the government
and satisfactory to ourselves; Mr. Douglass,
the Commissioner, showed me a copy of the letter In
his own baud writing; I think Mr. Douglass said his at- T
lentloo had been called to certain objectiouable expressions
in the letter, and be was cautioned to beware a
ol" persons who used such expressions; shortly afl'-r : 1'
this Mr. pouglssg inlortuod me that wo would abandon I
the investigation. fl
Witness was briefly cross examined, but notbtng new a
brought out.

was next put on tho stand and said:?During 1873, 1874
and 1876 there were efforts constantly made to ferret T
out the frauds thai were being purpetrated; several
revenue agonts were sent to St. Louie in 1872, but 1
recoived uo definite information from them; later
Brooks and Hoge were sent out, especially to look into
Bevis and t'razler's afi'atrs, and that firm paid the T
government (40,000 as a compromise; when I sent
Joyce to California it was to get him out of the wajr 01
of the agents whom I nenl here and who complained di
at an excessive attention on his part, wlniug and
dining them, so they could not do any work; McDon- r?
aid and Joyce never came to see me much whon they
were In Washington; 1 had a conversation with Mr. Ti
Rogers in regard to the Investigations iu tho West.
kaiicock's 1ntkufkrknxx. d
I remember showing him a copy of a letter received ri
between the loth and 15th ol December, written by ei
Brooks, saying that tho delay would prove equally g
profitable to the government and gratifying to our- s<
selves, or something of that kind; the copy of tbe
letter was shown to me at the White House by General
Babcock; ho said a gentloman had Bhown it to him J
and ha was atraid I was being deceived by those men; ]
he said be would hold me responsible for tueir conduct; 1
I told him that 1 bad great confluence In the men; ho s
said, "What might a sensitive man like Logan say if he
saw that letter f" Babcock told me that tho letter
had been given to him confidentially, and requested
me not to aay whero 1 received It from; after the visit u
ot McDonald to Washington I romember coming out of ci
my house one day, whon 1 met Babcock, and wo talked it
about St. Louis matters; 1 cannot Bay exactly what was ci
said; we talked about revenue agents coming here:
once, in 1874, Dabcock came to my office, and wo talked g;
about the supposed charges against Kurd, who was b
dead at tho tlmo; 1 told htm there were no charges
against Ford, that the charges I was getting up were |(
against tho living; he asked what examination had 0
been made, and said something about blackening tho t,
memory of Ford, tho only way a man's memory could
be blackened who was dead was by un examination; o
afterward Babcock came to sec me about sending a
bird?a thrush, I think?out West; ho only camo to my pj
office one* or twico altogether that I remember; ()
some two or threo months before Richardson went ti
out of office I had a talk with ths President and told
him things were crooked In St. Louis, and I thought if y,
a proper investigation was mado it would result largely *
to the benefit of ths Treasury ; he concurred with me,
and asked when I was going to begin; on tho 25th of
January, ,1875, I addressed a loiter to the Secretary of
the Treasury in regard to the change of supervisors;
the rumors of Irauds, beginning In 1872, caused me to
write this letter; afterward .Secretary Bnstow came t'
into the oifice, and wo talked tho matter over, conclud- j.
Ing to wall until the toll elections were over; we u
waited, and then thero were a number of Senatorial
elections, aud ws had to wait until tlioy wero over;
then we louud that we were in the midst of the l*resi- ..
dential election, and that was unother obstacle; alter b
that we arranged to make the transfers.
Letters were then produced and read In regard to
the chaugo of officers of internal revenue, including
General McDonald to Philadelphia and Mr. Tutlon to t
St. Louis.

The witness then proceeded:?After 1 addressed the ?
letter to the Secretary and tho transfers ot the super- L
visors were made 1 had a conversation with ths defendant;
the conversation commenced by his calling j,
my attention to the subject; he told mo it was un un- \
wise measurs and would result in briticimr such a
strong pressure ou tbo I'resident that tho order would j
have to bo recalled, which would be unpleasant for

room In the White .House; the President was not pres- a
ent; 1 don't ge'svober to have had any other conversation
withyuo defendant about the matter; this trans- ^

Mr. Storrs?Do you know that in many cases whero

Witness?Yes. sir; ho lavs the matter before the Preslent

Mr. Storrs?Have you not known of the best of your

BABOOCK'S 80I.ICITUD* SDR A FR1RNO.
Mr. Storrs?Something was said of an interview be- ,
seen you and (ioncral Babcock In which the name of
ord was used. Was it not as regards Void, and him
lone, that Babcock asked?
Witness?1 believe it was.
Mr. Storrs?l)id you understand that BabcoMc do- ^
ired to iniluonce your action as regards your plans to
reuk up the lrauds?
Witness?1 only understood it as 1 hare explained
he cirruuistauco. T
Mr. Storrs?Did you understand him to be anxious
o protect a man whose reputation ho believed to be
mro and who was the President's friend ? o
Witness?Yes, sir; I told liitn thore wero no charges c
gainst Mr. Voni; my suspicions were against other 1
ifliciats in 8t. Louis. u
Mr. Storrs?I desire to call your attention to the
otter which General Uabcock. you say, showed you. I
Vas not Hogo's name in that letter? '
Witness?Yes, sir; the letter spoke of a western trip;
don't think It mentioned St. Louis. >
Mr. Storrs?Did (Jeneral Babcock mention St. Louis?
Witness?I think not; ho spoke oi Senator Logan
s likely to feel sensitive over the charges.
Mr. Storrs?Spoakiug of this letter, do you remember
lis saying to you that It looked a little like addition,
ivision and silence 1 f
Wituess?I ought to do that; it originated in my J
tale. t
Mr. Storrs?In Pennsylvania. Oh. I ain glad to learn fi
rhcre that idea came from. Was not that a lime when c
, was deemed Important to coDcillale the Saoutor?
Witness?Well, my experience is that Is a continuous 0
line In Washington. I
Mr. Storrs?Now I come to the transfer of Superiors.
Tho Idea, I understand you to say, was concivod
belore Mr. Brlstow came into ofllco?
Witness?My first conversation on the subject was
'ith tbe President; It was, 1 think, two or threo j
lonths Deloro Mr. Brlstow came Intoofllco; the order ci
as issued on tho 27th of February, 1 believe; it was. *
orhaps, two days alter tbe issue of the order Uini I '
ad tbe conversation with General Babcock ; ho said a
9od deal of pressure woula be brought to bear npon
ie, and It was so; tho political pressure brought to
ear was very great.
At tbis point Mr. Storrs said there were Rome docu- *
lents he wished to look over boforu be went on with ie
cross-examination, and it being late au adjournlent
was taken until to-morrow morning.

THE BABOOCK-LUCKET CIPHER. I
The Babcock Luckey cipher, a fac-slmile of which
as published in the Hbuai.d of Thursday, haa at.
'acted great attention. By referring to this curious
ncumcnt it will be seen that not only was It so sr
mged that lha words nboald be sent In a peculiar or- 1
Br, but even the spelling was by a peculiar system. 1
he word "Arkansas" is given as a specimen of tho a
rtiiography, thus:?
Arkansas
12346076 I
btnosyha u
According to this system the first letter of the alphaid
arter tho letter beginning tho word is used; that is 1
i say, A in "Arkansas" would be indicated by the let- 1
sr h. In the sumo way tho second letter is indicated by
le second loiter of tho nlphabot after the second letter
I tho word, the third after tho third, and so on. When
is reached tho count begins again at a. Lot us lllus- *
ate:?btnosvba spells "Arkansas." B is the first let- ,
>r of the alphabet, alter a, with which the word heIns;
t the second letter after r; n tho lbiru letter > 1
itcrk; o the fourth letter afters; a tho fifth letter 1
Hern; y, the sixth letter after a, and h the seventh
itter after a As there are only seven letters after the . j

ipher goes hack to tho beginning, and thus wo huvo
