C1xctxAAT1, January a7.
The Military Commission, before whom the
Chicago conspirato1s arc arraigncd, assem-
bled this morning in the 1otunda of the Court
House In this city, pursuant to adjournment.
All the members Of the Court were present,
also the Judge Advocate, the prisoners and
their counsel.
The Court came to order at abaut quarter
past eleven O'Clock.
The record Of yesterdays proceedings were
read by the Recorder and approved. ..
Mr.. Asay said that he was unpreparcd on
two questions Of material Importance to the
defense In the first place lie proposed to
bring into Court the two daughters Of Walsh,
70 confront the witness Langhorne, as they
did not kuow@khat they have ever seen him.
He might have seen them in Camp Douglas
after the arrests, but he was not certain Of
the fact. He therefore requested that the
witness be held BY the Court until the de-
he had Fearned from u reliable source that
nr. Ianshornc Ind informed a gentleman in
the Burnett House, In this city, that he might.
be persuaded to leave the town and decline
to give evidence for the prosecution. This
gentleman was now out Of Cincinnati, aud
would not return for some days.
The Judge Advocate thought 1t would be q
great hardship to the witness to compel him
to remain here so long, especially when he
vas only allowed for expenses s. day, and
had to cxpend $3.50 or 81.
Mr. Assay said that if the Court would de-
tain the witness for short time 1t would be
sufficient. The young ladies were now In
Chicago, but he would undertake to see them
tomorrow.
The Judge Advocate consented that 11r:
langhorne should ac retained ia Cincinnati
until the return Of the counsel from Chicago.
The cross-examination Of the wi.nsss VII
liam c.. Walsh was then continued as follows,
by Mr.. Asay:
