MARTIAL Law IN CHICAGO.
A Dangerous Usurpation OF Authority

CHICAGO, November 4.
Governor Palmer has written letter to the
Attorney. General directing him to present the
facts In regard to the killing OF General Gros-
venor to the grand jury of Cook County.
Governor Palmer after alludlng to the circum-
concludes: ~ think you will perceive 1t Is now
the duty of the Governor and Attorney-Gene-
raj and all other officers to see that laws are
enforced against all parties concerned In these
illegal, dangerous acts. 1t is not necessary In
determining upon the line OF duty to De
adopted to inquire whether the Mayor OF Chi
cago, Lieutenant General Sherman and Frank
T. Sherman and his associates and sup
posed subordinates, who were the agents
BY which the death of Thomas Gros-
venor was produced, In assuming powers
they did not possess, and which cannot be con-
terred upon them, were Influenced by proper
or improper motives or purposes. They as
sumed to suspend the operation OF the consti-
tuition and the laws of the State, and substitute
In their stead laws and military force to be de-
fined and applied BY themselves. They, 6y
their lawless acts, attacked and insulted the
dignity and authority of the State, and have,
by their dangerous example, weakened puollc
confidence In the constitution and laws, and IN
their attempt to enforce usurped ana laWless
peaceabie citizen. Animated by the conf
dence have thus expressed, and confident IN
the belief that the Stale Of Illinois, acting
through the proper departments OF its govern
ment, is capable of protecting its own people
and of enforcing the dignity and authority of
its own laws, I have to request that you, IN
conjunction with the States attorney OF the
seventh circuit. will bring all the facts before
the grand jury of Cook County, In order that
all persons concerned in the unlawful killing
of. Thomas W. Grosvenor may be brought to
speedy trial."

A Plain Statement Of the Truth-The
Business Men OF Columbia Ask for the
Removal OF Military Rule.

The following resolutions were adopted BY
the Columbia Board Of Trade, at meeting
held November 3, with reference to the effect
upon the business interests of city and State,
produced by President Grants military pro-
ceedngs in South Carolina:
Whereas, This board, organized for the pur-
pose of fostering the trade OF this city, and OF
developing Its business interests In general,
cannot but consider with concern the blow
which these interests have received in the
recent Federal. military Intervention set on
foot in this State; and whereas, we feel salts.
fed that said Intervention was the result Of
exaggerated representations made at Wash
ington Of condition of things which had ex-
istence mostly In the minds of designing per-
sons, and was not called for by the facts OF the
case; and whereas, as citizens anxious for the
preservation of peace and the supremacy Of
order, we firmly hold that the civil process In
South Carolina Is and was fully adequate to
the enforcement OF the laws, county, State
and Federal. Be it, therefore,
Resolved, by the Board Of Trade OF Column
bla, s. c., That this board, addr, sslng itself
with due respect TO the chief magistrate OF the
United States, calls his attention to the serl-
GUS damage inflicted upon the industry of Co.
lumbia and the whole State by his military pro-
ceedings under the enforcement act OF Con.
gress.
RESOLVED, That the loss and suffering entail
ed upon the citizens OF South Carolina, in re.
gard to their agricultural, mechanical and
mercantile interess, require of President
Grant that he should, as an act of public JUS
tice, promptly remove from our State the re-
strictions which bis military intervention
places upon the business pursuits of a strug.
Cling community.
Resolved, That iu the absence OF vindlcation
and protection at the hands Of the State gov
ernment, we place our case before the Presl-
dent of the country of which We claim to be
law abiding citizens, maintaining that we have
a right to expect that the power OF the gov.
ernment will not be causelessly welded against
our interests.
RESOLVED, That these proceedings be publish
ed In the New York World, Journal Of Com.
merce, Washington Patriot and the Columbia
papers, and that the President OF this board
send a copy to the President of the United
States. R. ONEALE, Jr., President.

Il TELEGRAPRfC SPINDLE.
Two Sharp Operators Fleece q New
Company.

sSrom the Savannah Advertiser Of yesterday
The Southern and Atlantic Telegraph Com
paRy, but recently established In our city. was
last night the victim of pair of adventurous
operators who, with consummate b0ldness
and NO small amount of skill, accomplished q
feat not altogether confined to the neatness OF
telegraphy. The circumstance alluded to Is as
follows Two young men, named Mccormack
and Niehols, hailing ifom New York., have
been for some time engaged as telegraph ope-
rators In this city on the Southern and Attain
tic line. Nothing Ia known of their antece-
dents; they were simply employed, we are
told, as telegraphie operators, though the &C.
quel shows they did not conane their opesa-
tlons to manipulating only one key.
Yesterday, it appears, the company had two
drafts OF five hundred dollars each to meet.
The money was put In the hands of one OF
these professionals. and the presumption was
that the drafts were settled. In the afternoon
these two gentlemen hustled around, diligent-
ly endeavortng to collect bills due or nearly
due for specials, DC. Calling at the Adverti-
ser Office, one OF them Insisted very excitedly
more messages would be received over that
line. The money was not paid. He also
called on the News, and, we learn, received
seventy.hve dollars. An unsuccessful effort
was made to borrow from different parties.
Altogether these adventurous gentlemen
raised from twelve hundred to fifteen hum
dred dollars. One OF them was fortunate
enough to have on new pair of shoes belong.

to stretch, and no doubt will before he returns
them. About dark, the younger Of the TWO
was seen hurrying down Bull street. Later,
as they did not put In an appearance at the Of
flee, an examination Of the till revealed the
fact that only fifteen cents was left
of the weeks earning, and close
investigation elicted the very suspicious
Information that they were at the Central
Railroad depot just about the time for the train
10 leave. Considerable excitement was per-
ceptible about the office, and at latest accounts,
one o'clock A. NJ, the authorities are Of the
opinion that somebody has lost from $1,000 to
$500, and somebody else pair of boots, and
that there are two less operators Of telegraph
and finance In this city. Vdde ye votaries Of
Franklin and Morse, we commend you to the
kind consideration of the frat detective you
may meet.

state that the prosecution of the polygamists

are leaving; and that the Mormons are leaving,
and that the Gentiles are curtaillng their ousi.
ness operations and sending their wives and
children to places of safety. 1t is added that
the government has recently sold to these
very Mormons old muskets for dollar apiece,
and that If war comes the Mormons will pre-

probable that they may all emigrate to Mexico

New YORK, November S.
The cotton movement was large In receipts,
the total being in excess Of any previous week
this season. The exports for the week were
less than one-half the amount OF those for the
week OF last year, and the total
movement for the expired portion OF the cot
ton year shows considerable falling of as
compared with the same time last year. This
is que, In part, to the scarcity Of money in the
South to make the crop. The receipts at all
OF the ports for the week were 96,078 bales
against 81, 800 last week, s2,53S the previous
week, and 64,OS7 three weeks since. The
total receipts since September have been 49,
Ill bales against 542,745 for the correspond
Ing period of the previous year, showing a
decrease since September lst, this year, OF
50, ,634 bales. The exports from all OF the ports
for the week were 36,344 bales, against 73, l24
for the same week last year. The total ex-
ports for the expired portion of the cotton
year are i89,247 bales, against 22s,553 for the
