WASHINGTON, May 2s
Heavy Fee for Defending FenIans-Mr.
Seward I'm Trouble.
It being announced that the counsel re-
tanned to defend the Fenian prisoners has sent
in bill for $50, 900, il has become a question
by what authority the State Department as
sumes to employ counsel in such cases. and a
distinguished Senator declares there will be
trouble about the matter in the Senate.
The Senator believes there is no authority
for such procedure, and says it will bring Mr..
Stewards Republican friends in the Senate
about his ears again. He also afirms that Mr..
Seward has no friends in the Senate ON the
Republican side, and remarks that could he
have been permitted to hear the debate in
executive session on the Russo-Amerioan
treaty, and the language therein applied to
him, he would certainly see and feel that he
had fallen far out of the way that leads to the
Republican heaven.
