FIBL.D COI'IIT MARTIAI, INTO THE PRESENT INQUIRY Am a Part of the Argument In the Leonlmater Case He Begun Read- Ing the Testimony Which Had Formerly lleoa Turned Down- Took Him Six Hoar*, bat Will Re. celve No Consideration. Col. Dv Vail had his Innings yesterday, and. having gotten the Leonhauser court of Inquiry in a corner, he talked every member including Col. Pennlngton, into the shadow of a standstill. The colonel was clever and finally accomplished that which he so eagerly tried to do many times before but has failed. He has suc ceeded in injecting into the records of the present inquiry the record of the field court-martial at Augusta. The court suffered him to read it, on the plea that time was no particular object to them, and told him they would not consider It in their findings, but as the colonel read the stenographer took it down, and it thus becomes part and parcel of the rec ords of Col. Pennington's high court of secrecy, and as such will probably be considered by the war department when it reviews the proceedings of this court, and that has been the end and aim of Col. Dv Vall's persistence. When he of fered it before it was turned down, so he used it as a part of his argument and thus got it hi. The colonel wins, but it was almost as rough on the court of inquiry as was Gen. Young's wholesale criticism. On the opening of court yesterday Mr. Catlin opened the argument on behalf of Col. Leonhauser. He spoke for an hour and paid his respects to Col. Dv Vail in a manner most emphatic. He opened with a statement of the case and referring to the report that Col. Dv Vail had made to Gen. Young he said that Col. Dv Vail, as Judge advocate of the Second army corps, had forgotten the characteristics of a man and a soldier and had taken occasion to abuse better men than himself. Re ferring to the telegram from the war de partment, saying an inquiry' ought to be had, he said he did not believe that Gen. Young would play the baby act and try to shift the responsibility of issuing the order criticising the officers to the war department. That he did not believe the order originated with Gen. Young, but emanated from Col. Dv Vail. The tele gram from the war department did not instruct Gen. Young to do as he had done, but instructed him to censure those officers who had themselves participated in the meeting, and instead of doing so he had slurred the whole forty-six officers of the regiment indiscriminately, and Col. Dv Vall's trying to get the court-martlal's proceedings before this court was an ef fort to show that, while he probably had no belief in Col. Leonhauser's culpability, Gen. Young had some excuse for issuing his order.. Col. Dv Vail had gotten Gen. Young into a bad scrape and must now get him out. Mr. Catlin then briefly re viewed the evidence and lri conclusion said there was no mutiny in the camp at Augusta on the night of Feb. 4, and thero was no ground to suppose that after the trouble quieted down there would be any mutiny and certainly not in the day time. Mr. Catlin finished his argument at 11:30, and Col. Dv Vail began, and with out any opening remarks commenced reading the report of the court-martial held at Augusta. He was stopped by the court, who would not stand for it and went into secret conference with the at torneys excluded .from the room. But the court gave in and said while they would not consider the report in their findings Col. Dv Vail might read it If he wished to, and he did wish to. There were only nine reports of the nine dif ferent trials, and as fast as he read one he began another. It was a splendid argument In favor of Gen. Young (?) He also wanted to read the arguments of the counsel in the court-martial, but that did not go. Nothing daunted, the col onel kept on reading. He read from 11:30 to 12:30. The court stopped for lunch, but Col. Dv Vail fortified himself as well- and he began reading again at 1:30; hour after hour passed and still he read court-martial reports. Six o'clock ar rived at last and Col. Dv Vail had to be informed it was time for him to stop, or he would probably be reading yet. re gardless of whether any one was lis tening to him or not. Reports of eight trials were read; the ninth was ruled out, being objected to by Col. Leonhau ser's counsel on the ground that the find ings had not been found when Gen. Young's order had been published. Col. Dv Vail will resume his unique argument this morning, and if he ever finishes Capt. Crossfleld will begin the closing ad dress. The end of the trial will depend somewhat on Col. Dv Vall's staying pow ers, which are. good at present. VITAL STATISTICS. MARRIAGE LICENSES. Henry R. McCollum, Laura M. Gillard. Wm. P. Hoy, Anna M.
