WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, August 9.-Hallet
Kilbourne has entered suit against
the Speaker of the House, Sergeant
alarms and members Of the Real
Estate Pool Committee, claiming
100000 damages for injuries sus-
tanned by reason of Imprisonment
without cause.
W. B. Moore, special agent of the
United States Treasury, published
a letter addressed to the chairman
of the subcommittee on the whisky
frauds, in which he says that Blu
ford Wilson's derogatory testimony
in relation to him is drawn from
imagination; that he never left his
post at Baltimore without author
ity had never sworn or stated that
he saw General Babcock open a
letter from Joyce, nor was he dis
missed for leaving his post and 60
ing to st. Louis as a witness in the
Babcock case.

SARATOGA, August 9.-The fine
racing yesterday and Monday
brought together to-day much the
largest attendance. Soon after IL
am. a gun signalled for a senior
single Scull race, and the Yates,
Union Springs, Alderman, Atlanta,
Kennedy, Yale, Riley and Neptune
responded. A start was effected at
Ills. AT the half mile Riley led;
Yates second, Kennedy third. Riley
was going at thirty-two strokes,
which kept him ahead at the mile
turn; the others as before. AT a
half mile from home the order was:
Riley, Yates and Kennedy, the diff
ference being very small. Riley
still keeping his thirty-two strokes,
won in l3:2Ot; Kennedy second,
1884; Yates gave out. Winning
time last year, 1899.

CHICAGO, August 9.-The fu-

principal Of the North Side public
school, who was shot by Alexander
Sullivan, Secretary of the Board Of
Public Works, took place to-day
and was largely attended. The
coroner's inquest is still in prog.
ress, but the testimony taken thus
far does not differ essentially from
the published accounts Of the affair.

Special Telegrapbic Correspondence to tho
Courier Journal
WASHINGTON, August DE
spite the extreme heat of the day
the feeling and conversation among
Democratic members to-day were
exceedingly cheerful. They got
news from all quarters, and from
the West especially. They are en-
thuSiastic over the letters of Tilden
and Hendricks, the passage Of the
school amendment, which the Re-
pnblicans are already beginning to
oppose, and the act repeating the
the resumption clause.
The investigating reports will all
be made in two or three days, and
the appropriation bills can be ar
ranged in the same time. The
prominent Democrats want to adj
iourn in two or three days. The
Republicans do not like the pros
peet, and are seeking to prolong
the session for a bloody shirt de,
bate, hoping that the old dodge
will win again. To that end they
are ready to sacrifice the steamboat
bill, the bill repeating the resump-
ton clause, and the act to make
the Union Pacific and Central Pa
citic railways provide a sinking
fund. There is now little hope of
passing these measures.
The minority report of the com
mittee on Louisiana Affairs pro-
poses to stand up to the Federal
officers. 1t viii deny that Packard
and Casey have Distracted the in
vestigation, as asserted by the ma
iority, or that Casey had personal
knowledge of the fraudulent pay
rolls, and was responsible for them.
1t will further deny that Packard
is censurable for the appointment
of deputies for election purposes or
the discOunting Of witness fees, and
will say that he had legal authority
to appoint every one under the law.
1t will also deny that Kinseller was
responsible for the fraudulent pay
rolls. Darrall will file a minority
report touching West F%eliciana.
The majority report will be signed
and will be severe on
Colonel Casey and Marshal Packard.

BERLIN, August 9.-Mediation
by the powers is considered imposi-
bic until the Montenegrins are
driven off of Turkish soil. Accord
ing to private information; Prince
Charles is greatly discounted at the
change in the cabinet, increasing
the power of the radicals. His
abdication is feared.
LONDON, August a.--The Times,
considering the capture Of Gurgu-
zoratz a severe, if not fatal blow to
the Servians, says that the Turkish
ministers must be solemnly warned
that they will not be allowed to
make wantOn use of their victory,
or if they think hal on the soil of
Seryia their troops may commit the
One-hundredth part Of the atrocities
perpetrated in Bulgaria, they are
victims Of a false infatuation. Nor
will Turkey be allowed to make
such use Of her victory as to cancel
Servian freedom. Servia is under
the protection of great powers, and
with them will be the duty of i'm
posing any needful restraint on the
impetuous spirit of her people.
In the House Of Commons this
afternoon, Under Secretary Bourke
said that several representations
had been made to the Porte regard
ing the cruel and atrocious scenes
in Bulgaria. The Porte has also
been informed hat the recital of
those deeds has created in the Eng
lish mind a feeling Of the greatest
Indignation and horror. l have
reason to believe that these occur
ences ceased some little time
ago, and that due punishment is
being inflicted by the Porte upon
the perpetrators.
A British Consular agent has
been appointed at Phillippopolis
with special Instructions on the
subject of these atrocities.

A nee INDIANS.

A learned writer who resides in
the East, several thousand mile:
from the Bad Lands on the Yellow
stone, where Sitting Bull and his
painted braves eat up Uncle Sans
boys in blue by the score, daily,
solves the great issue by advocating
the disarmament of the Indians and
passing a law making it a felony to
sell an Indian a gun. He says
indians hardly ever have enough
to eat. They are almost always IL
a state of starvation. In summe
they fish, hunt, and fight, buckle
their belts a little tighter when
game is scarce, eat when they can
get anything, save nothing for to-
morrow, and die without hinching
when the time comes. With their
stocism, alertness, cunning, and
familiarity with horse and gun,
they will ordinarily, on their own
grounds, Outright twice their num-
Der Of disciplined soldiers. And
every spring they become suppliant
beggars, lying around Indian agen-
cies and appealing for food. There
is only one way to prevent them
from being dangerous to them
selves and others-depriye them
Of their guns and thereby traus-
form them from Arabs TO ciii-
zeBs- Nomads are always sayages. +"
The writer docs not state the
method by which the Indian can
be disarmed. General Custer
failed in the undertaking, and Gen
eral Crook found it difficult to per-
form the task on the banks Of the
Rosebud, and General Terry finds
it difficult along the Yellowstone.
We can imagine the answer Sitting
Bull would give to the philosopher
who would walk up to him and de.
mand his gun. The philosopher
would soon cease to exist and til,
subsequent proceedings would trou.
bic him no more, even though hi
CORY scalp would dangle at the belt
Of some squaw or warrior. Before
the Indians are disarmed it might
be advisable to give them a sount
whipping, and when either prison
er8 or dead, then take away thei
guns. General Harvey used to sar
that the only good Indian was
dead Indian, and if any nits ar,
lett You may expect to find lice-ol
the plains.
