Testimony Of DID. FOIey-A 500, 900, 900
Job, in which BrOther-in-LaW
Casey Had an Interest

WASHINGTON, May Cd. D. Foley,
Of Washington, testified before the Lou
isisns investigating committee to day
that, as lawyer, ne was engaged in
the prosecution Of large claim for Pc
Tuvian gusnO, involving one hundred
million dollars, During the prosecution
OF that claim he learned that James Ca
sey, p. Il. Herwig and Nicholas Casey
were interested in the claim, having
paid DR.. J. I. LSndTesu, owner OF the
claim, two hundred dollars, and PROM
ised to aid in the prosecution of the case.
Mr.. Thomas, the minister to Peru, re
signed, and Casey used his infiu-
ence TO have Gibbs appointed in
his place. The Caseys and HerWig
were 10 receive thirty per cent. of the
proceeds Of this claim; witness had a
conversation with Casey after Thomas
resigned, and Casey told witness that
Gibbs would be appointed, but that the
appointment would not be made until
after the executive session Of the senSte
had adjourned; this was in March, 1875,
aud about 8 week after the senate ad-
journed, Gibbs was appointed; Casey
told witness thst Secretary Fish opposed
the appointment OF Gibbs; witness was
lawyer for DR.. LsndTesu, and the latter
WdDlcu Nllu6ss 70 BO W L CIT oo s6Cic-
tary to Gibbs, so that he could better
prosecute the case, and that was why he
held conversation with Casey; the
United States were prosecuting this case
in diplomatic way, but had no pecu-
mary interest in the matter; wit
ness said that Casey's being an Of
fcer violated the statute in
buying an interest in a claim in which
the United States was party; the wit
ness worked nine months for LSndreau,
and then Lsndreau sold out his claim to
Henry D. and Jay Cooke, without pay
ing the witness for his services, and the
statute was huntCd up aud read, and
the committee told Foley that the law
had not been violated at all, as the gov
eminent Wss only acting ss s negOta-
tor, without. having a CENTS worth Of
interest ia the proceeds; this witness
had told the committee, about ten days
ago, that he had some infOTmstiOn to
give and the COMMITTEES had him sum-
moued, and he has been waiting till to-
day to testify. After he had testified
motion was made tbst it be stricken
from the record as having no bearing on
the matter before the committee, but it
was fiuslly allowed to remain for u few
days to see if anything else came out

FRANCE.
Amnesty Defeated in the French Sen.
ate-VicIOr HugO's Speech in Favor
of 1.-THE Coup d'Etat.

PARIS, May 22,-The debate on the
amnesty question was opened in the
senate Today. The floor and galleries
were crowded with members and spec
tators. Victor Hugo introduced a mo-
Jion for complete amnesty, and ad-
dressed the senate. He urged that un-
der the republic the right Of pardon was
q prerogstive Of the assembly; this
right should not be abrogated, and
could only be exercised in the form Of
an amnesty. He drew an elaborate COM
psrisOn between the cummune and the
coup d'etdt. NapOleon's crime, he de-
clsred, was greater than that OF the
commune; yet the magistracy swore al
legisnce to the crime of the second Of
December, while it decreed transporta-
ton, the galleys and shooting against
the commune. The boGr had come to
stigmatize the coup d'etat by voting an
amnesty full and complete. Mr.. Hugo
was listened TO with deep attention, and
at the conclusion OF bis speech was con-
graduated even by the opponents Of am
nesty. The B0napartists remained
silent. NJ. TOlsin said the government
finds there is nothing to reply to in M.
HugO's speech. The motion was then
rejscted almost unanimously, about
eight radical senators voting for it.

WINSLOW.
The Clerical Thief not Yet ReIensed-A
bare Chance that he Will Yet be
Extradited.

LONDON, May 22.-Tt is understood
that the government will ask that Wins
low be further remanded tomorrow, and
as Baron Pollock is not likely to make
any difficulty, there is little probability
OF the prisoners, immediate discharge.
Indeed, a feeling is growing up here
among those interested in the case, that
the government will not adhere 10 its
position, but wiz seek some other solu.
ton OF the question than g refusal on its
own responsibility TO comply with the
requirements Of the treaty. The Pail
Mall Gazette which has hitherto strong.
ly indOrsed the position Of the govern
ment, in leading editorial to-day on
Secretary Fish's letter OF March 3lst,
still maintains that the government is
obliged to obey municipal law in pref
erence to treaty stipulatious, but says
that the government ought to take steps
to refer to the courts the question
whether the AshburtOn treaty is except
ed from the operation Of the act Of 1870.
In last res OCt, says the Pail Mall Gazette,
Il is q question not for the law officers,
but for the law courts, and there are re-
cOgniZed mesns Of raising it In the lat
ter for their decision. Oar government
will not be wholly free from responsible.

ton has been so raised and decided,

Cabinet CbRnEes-DOn Cameron, the
Son OF his Father, Appointed
Secretary of War-Etc.

WASHINGTON, May 22-The Presi-
dent to-day Gent 10 the senate the fol-
lowing nominations: Edward Pierre
pont, OF New York, minister to Eng
land; AlfOnZO Taft, OF OHIO (uOw secre-
tary of war;, attorney genera; J. Don
aid Cameron, Of Pennsylvania, secre-
tsry Of war; John Pratt, secretary Of the

supreme court Of New Mexico; B. z.
Chsmbers, register Of the land Cfhce st
ElObrara, Minnesota, and George NJ.
Miller, postmaster at Appleton, Wiscon-
ain. As soon as the senate went into
executive session the nomination Of
Pierrepont, was referred to the com nit
tse on foreign relations; that Of Taft to
the committee on judiciary, and that OF
Cameron 10 the committee on military
sffsirs. Seusln!s Cameron, Edmunds
aud Logan, the respective chaiTmen
of those committees, soon after made
favorable report on the nominations,
which were confirmed by the senate
without debate. The reception Of the
nominations from the President, their
reference, the reports thereon, and the
final action, occupying less than an
hour. The nominations were a surprise
To nearly every one, especially that Of
Don Cameron, son OF Senator Cameron.
The csbinst changes and the nomina.
ton OF Judge PieITepont IS minister to
England, were the occasion Of great sur
prise in all quarters. 80 carefully had
the intsntioGs Of the President in this
regard been concealed, that with the ex-
csption Of Mr.. Fish and gentlemen di-
rectly and personally interested, the
other members Of the cabinet were not
sware ofthe arrangement until The nom.
nations had besn sent to the senate.
Judge Pierrepont will take immediate
steps to depart for England and Judge
Taft will, sithOut delay, take charge OF
the department Of Justice. Judge Pier
repout will probably arrive in England
before the termination OF the CORE
spondence with the British government
