because sho refused to marry him:
THOMAS D. CARR
was then brought in. There was q
death-likc stiffness in the Court room,
and the countenanCe of the entire au-
dicnce wore hal sad look as when at
tending a funeral. lie was dressed in
dark clothes, with n white handker-
chief around his neck; a short nous
tache; his hair cut quite short, and
brushed smooth. Ills face, though pale,
was full, and he looked quite hearty
Has a keen gray eye. There was more
solemnity about his general appearance
than during the trial, but received his
sentence with stoical Indifference, and
without a shudder. A motion for a new
trial had been filed and argued by his
counsel, Messrs. Swaney and Cowen,
which being disposed Of, he was direc-
ted to stand up, and BEING asked if he
Lad anything to say why the sentence
of the law should not be pronounced he
shook his head. The Court, with much
feeling, slowly pronounced the awful
penalty Of the law, as follows:
Thomas D. CARA jury of your fell
low citizens, almost selected by your
self, upon their oOths, have found you
guilty of the willful, deliberate, pre-
mCditated and malicious murder o
Louisa q. Fox, In our judgment thu
verdict is fully warranted by the evi
dence in the case, and accords with tn,
truth, The undisputod facts proven
presents a case of more than ordinar,
enormity-without being alleviated b,
a single mitigating circumstance,
Your victim, a child in years, becaus
she refused to marry you, was murder
cd in a most shocking manner, he
head being almost severed from he
body.
Your sole and only defense, that q
moral insanity, ally and eloquent
urged by your counsel upon this tria
failed to coavince the jury that 20
should not be acquitted. The testimC
ny upon this subject, with its most Fl
Vorahle construction, only tended
prove that you were petulent, ill-natu
ed, irritable, of a nervous temperance
and possessed of a heart fatally bent o
mischief.
The jury upon their oaths have COZ
scienciously discharged their duty. n
effort has been SPARED to obtain an a
quittaI, by the able and learned couns'
assigned for your defense.
The verdict of the jury imposes
painful duty upon the Court but,
the administration Of the law ii must |
performed.
Our law givers, those having it !
their power to direct and govern srci'
ty, have determined that justice n
guires that "whomsoever sheddet
mans blood, by nan shall his blood b
she'd" not in the spirit Of vengeance
but that others warned by the exampl
may DO afraid to commit crime.
Your unfortunate victim cannot b
restored TO life by any tears of repen
ancer Or by eOntritiOn of heart. Til
crime you have committed a only B
cxpiated by the judgment Of the Law
1t is; That you be taken from henc

T. G. KIBBBs, 8. Messenger.
1t will be seen that the messenger, In this
case, cost the Sergeant-at-Arms &3l 80, for
which, under the law, he cannot be allowed
but sls, leaving a loss of $3.50. Doub t.
less many such cases occur, which largely
reduce the net profits of the office from the
above figures. Taking the last or impeach-
ment year as basis, and 1t was probably
the best year Mr.. Ordway has had, his fees
and salary would not exceed $4,000, or just
about the same amount that the members of
the House receive, on an average, for salary
and mileage. Now, the question arises, Is
that sum too much for the care, RESPONSE
billty aud risk of receiving and dlsbursing In
small sums 81 ,5Oo, 900 per annumi Does any
private banker handle and become RESPONSE
BILE for funds for fye mills and four tenths on
the dollar, to say nothing ofthe loss ofintercst
incident to paying the bills Of committees,
and waiting for months for an appropriation,
and other duties incident to the object As to
the lnslnuation that Mr.. Ordway had charged
S42 per dozen for gloves which cost much
less, 1t Is found on examination that In one
or two instances that he was obliged to pur-
chase almost the entire stock of black gloves
In the city, and In order to get large sizes
enough had to pay an extra price for them,
and t42 per dozen was actually paid for
some, while smaller and regular sizes were
charged for In the same bill at from S37 to
$50 per dozen; and on two of tho three fu-
neral occasions on which gloves have been
furnished by him they have been delivered to
each member and employee who by custom
was entitled 10 receive them, and q record Of
each pair so delivered kept, showing that
the number of gloves charged for were ac-
tually furnished.
As 10 the charge that Mr.. Rollins, the
former chairman Of the Committee on Ac-
counts, passed improper bills for Mr.. Ord
way, 1t is found that Mr.. Rollins never passed
a single bill for Mr.. Ordway until 1t had
been examined and approved by the chair
man Of the committee for whom the Sergeant
alarms had performed the seryicei and not
then until q majority Of the Committee on
Accounts had passed upon the bill.
The concluding portion OF the article In
question buJo luC CuuhSeo thhb q bhOi-
ough investigation will be had" &c. It Is
presumed that the writer did not know that
two thorough Investigations have already
been made, which completely exonerated and
indicated Mr.. Ordway. The concluding
part of the report of the first investigation
says;
Upon the whole matter, the committee
find none Of the charges sustained by the |
evidence, as far as they impute fraud to the |
Sergeant at Arms. They therefore recon- |
mend the passage Of the following resolu-
tion
Resolved, That the committee be discharged
from the further consideration ofthe subject.

The bill of Mr.. Ella Is simply a transcript
Of that of Mr.. Latin, passed years ago, to
the end Of reducing the plan of obtaining
supplies of paper for the Government print
Ing office to honest principles. Previous to
its enactment the public were annually
startled with accounts of dishonest practices
In procuring these supplies. Since its enact
ment no such thing has been heard of. The
supplies have been regularly furnished with
out giving rise to single surmise that there
has been any unfairness In the bidding, In
awarding the contracts, or in their execu-
tion. With this result before them 1t will
be hard for those interested In perpetuatng
the current method Of obtaining and fur.
nishlng supplies of stationery, &C., for the
executive departments to induce them to
deprecate the application thereto Of Mr..
LaAIu's so successful and satisfactory plan
with reference to contracts for paper for the
public printing.
COMMRSDABLE.
The fact that the Senate continued In ses-
sion from 12 III. yesterday to ll;80 q. m.
to-day, and then went at their work again In
half an hour, shows that the majority of the
body mean to fairly dispose of as much ac-
tual business before the session ends as their
current rules will permit. The perseverance
Of Mr.. Stewart, of Nevada, had much 10 do
with this admirable Senatorial persistence.

February 8, 1900.
l certify that the above is true copy OF a
letter received at this room on the day of the
date thereof blythe chairman to whom 1t was
addressed. j. W. CLARK,
Clerk Committee on Accounts, II. r.
The above letter, which was sent to the
committee long before any competitor was
named for the position, shows an earnest de-
sire on the part of Mr.. Ordway to inaugu-
rate such reforms in the Office as that the
most captious must be satisfied that he was
willing to let the much-talked-of retrench-
ment about the Capitol commence while he
was in office.
Now, while we do not desire to disparage
or call in question the merits of other candl-
dates for the place, we frankly admit that
should the next Congress see it to make
change in a financial position, which ought
never TO be subject to too frequent changes,
we think the members would seriously miss
the commanding form and genial counte-
nance Of Colonel 0rdway, who seems to us
the very pattern ofa man that any one would
pick out for sergeant-at-Arms If they were to
have the whole country to select from, and
we really don't think the time he has served
in the position, (Which Is three years less
than the present sergeant-at-Arms Of the
Senate has served,) should be counted at all
against him; nor the fact that he was raised
In New Hampshire, since 80 many of the
members are Junior or senior carpet-baggers
from some Of the New England States.
