Eastern Dispatches.

New YORK, June 10.
When Stokes was informed of the de-
cision of the Court Of Appeals, granting
him new trial, he expressed himself
well pleased; but added quickly and
somewhat sadly, the report might posi-
bly, be untrue, and the disappointment
would be all the greater if it should
prove to be the case. His counsel, Mr..
Dos Pasos, with his relatives and friends
soon arrived at the Tombs, and there
was good deal of rejoicing among those
interested at the favorable decision Of
the Appellate Court. Dos Pasos says,
ON the next trial. We will prove to the
satisfaction of the New York public that
there has been a gross misapprehension
of the case, from the day of the tragedy,
and we will be we'll able to establish the
fact of his innocence by evidence of an
overwhelming character.
WASHINGTON, June 10.
The massacre of the Modoc captives
at Lost River crossing is denounced by
every one here. Both General Sheridan
with the military and Attorney General
Williams, with the Judicial Authorities,
will exercise every possible means to
capture and punish the culprits. The
Attorney General expresses his opinion
that the murder was committed by
rufians and outlaws who infest that To-
cality, and will be almost impossible to
catch them. The War Department re-
ceived no dispatches on the subject to-
day.
New YORK, June TO-
The opinion of the Court of Appeals
in the Stokes case, inferentially declared
the constitutionality of the New Jersey

preston of an opinion, shall not operate
to the exclusion of juror who takes the
oath, that he believed he could render an
impartial verdict on the evidence.

WASHINGTON June 10.
TWAS recently stated that two dele.
gates from the Government of Guate-
mala, accompanied by the Minister from
that country, called on President Grant,
urging the annexation of that Republic
to the United States. There is the best
authority for saying that the Minister
from Guatemala and San Salvador, know
nothing of any Central Americans, who
may have seen the President with the
alleged, or any other object. He has not
been in Washington since the 10th OF
April last, and to his knowledge, not q
single prominent native of Central
America is dreaming Of the annexation
of his country to the United States.
