Branch in June to spend the summer.
The president to-day suspended the
| United States district attorney for the
eastern district of Wisconsin. This
will doubtless be followed by the re-
| movul of the collector of internal reve-
nue. at Milwaukee. The successor of
the district attorney will not probably
be appointed till the meeting of con-
gress.
1t has finally been decided that Mat
thews will succeed Mum, as supervi-
sor of internal revenue in Illinois,
Wisconsin and Michigan. Munn's
resignation was accepted to-day after
having been considered in cabinet
meeting.
The Indian Office is having consider
able trouble with the Indian delegation
now here. The chiefs are much dis
satisfied with their quarters, because
they say instead of the large rooms
they had before, where they could
gather and consult freely, they have
been crowded into small rooms, where
they can not counsel with each other.
To-day Red Cloud and Spotted Tail
had made arrangem snts for call, with
their own interpreter, upon Professor
Marsh, who is here, but Agent Saville
and Commissioner Smith, hearing OF
it, prevented the call. General Cowen,
however, hearing of the matter, gave
directions that Professor Marsh should
have his interview tomorrow.
The case of Lawrence, SILK SNUG
gler, was considered in cabinet to-day.
Two of his attorneys have asked for an
order to the district attorney, that he
may not be tried for defrauding the
revenue, but for forgery, on the ground
that he could not have been eXtradited
for the first oiiense. AS Attorney Cen
eral Pierrepont had been one of Law
rence's attorneys before he entered the
cabinet, it was to-day agreed that the
case should be investigated aud report
ed upon by the solicitor general, as
Judge Pierrepont did not, under the
circumstances, desire to act. The hope
of Lawrence's lawyer is that the charge
of forgery will fail, and then he cannot,
under treaty, be tried for swindling the
government but if the charge of for
gerry fails, it will he necessary to send
him back to Europe.
Colonel a. G. Matthews, at present
collector of the ninth Illinois district,
has been appointed internal revenue
supervisor for the district comprised OF
the states of Illinois, Michigan and
Wisconsin, vice Mum.
