ABOLISH THESE SECRET SESSIONS
ALONG THE WHARVEs.
The Fish and Oyster Trade,

Now that the river is open and navigation re-
sumed, the oyster men are trying to make up for
the time lost during the freeze by flooding the
market with oysters; and as a result the Wharves
are blOekaded, and the channel filled with sloops,
all heavily laden with bivalves, for which the
owners are anxiOusly seeking customers. The re-
suit Of this has been TO somewhat reduce the
price, and Saturday good oysters ranged from
nifty to eighty cents per busheI while fair quail
ity could be obtained for thirty and forty cents.
The demand, however, was good, and business
looked brisk all day long. The coal and other
wharves are also occupied by schooners dlscharg.
ing their cargoes, ana as whole, the river pre-
sents a busy appearance. Among the arrivals
Saturday was sloop with fifteen hundred
punches OF fresh hsk-r0ek and pereh-for Jacob
d. Faunce which were sold at fair prices

THE MORROW CONTRACT.

Professor Marsh presses upon our attention the
subject of the Morrow contract not referred to in
his letter to the President and the alleged double
agency in November, 1870 to the amount Of SO O00
1t should be said that the fraud, II such IL were
occurred before the present Commissioner Of In
dian Affairs came into office.
1t appears that in November, 1870, Morrow de-
livered to Agent French, for that agency, about
100 head Of cattle, for Which French gave receipt
following; that the receipt was given by French
with the expectation that It would be held as q
memorandum5he having received the cattle at
tractor-and with the intention Of drawing from
the herd afterwards cattle as he might need them
for issue, giving vouchers as he should take them;
that in a few days French was superseded by the
present agent, Livingston, and that In turning
over to his successor he took receipt for these
that Livingston Afterwards took up cattle from
the herd as he needed them, giving orrow youch-
ers for them upon which Morrow Sc ond time was
and in 1873, when the final settlement Of his ac-
counts as an agent was reached, he found himself
in default for the amount Of his voucher given to
MORROW with the balance really due him from the
Government locked up in the Treasury. Morrow
denied that he ever received his pay twice, but
claimed that owing rd to personal dificulty be-
to receipt for the cattle, and that French left
them in the agency herd; and that white men and
Indians helpedfhemselves to them, and that they
were thus lost to the Government
There is evidence tending to show that in this
claim Morrow was correct. From the correspon-
dence found at the Department Of the Interior 1t
Is certain that large number OF these cattle
which were never issued to them were suffered TO
be killed by the Indians and others.
Morrow claimed that every subsequent receipt,
received after November, 1870, represented o sep
arate actual delivery, and 1t appears that no
duplicate receipt, or receipt representing similar
very certain that French or Livingston, one or
both, neglected their duty, and that from that
neglect the difficulty arose.
As soon as tie matter came to the attention of
the present Commissioner Of Indian Affairs he
Instituted q thorough investigation, and caused o
SUIT to be commenced against Morrow for the
recovery Of the price Of the CATTLE The case was
not without embarrassment-fort the neglect of the
agents was manifest, and Morrow claimed to be
able to show that he had only been once paid.
II was finally compromised, Morrow delivering
at the Crow Creek Agency the same number OF
pounds Of beef cattle as was represented

have recently got rid of an army of large
