In the debate in the House on Wednesday
last some important facts were brought out
In discussing Mr.. Hoar's amendment to the
Post ONCE appropriation bill, which pro
hfbtts the Postmaster General from selling
stamped envelopes, newspaper wrappers, or
po6IN cards at less than cost. Mr.. Hoar
caused t. be printed as a part OF his remarks
. small pamphlet prepared by several OF the
largest stationery. printing and envelope
establishments In the country, showing that
the government actually loses annually
about O., 1000 On the manufacture, trans
por;ation and sale OF stamped envelopes,
newspaper wrappers and postal cards, and
thai IL would save by the sole use OF stamps
over g 5000 yearly. II Is unnecessary TO
give all the facts and figures used by the
stationers, printers, and envelope makers
but II Is proper to say that Mr.. Hoar and
others conceded the accuracy OF the deduc-
tons made. Mr.. Hoar finally omitted postal
cards from his amendment because OF the
diniculfy OF having for them The price of q
cent and the fraction of a cent. Mr.. Hoar's
amendment after immaterial modification
was adopted.

The Chicago Times, which seems to be

IL not improbable that there will be four
Presidential tickets In the field In the course
Of sixty days. 1t says:
The two old organizations, democratic

present theirs also, and as there Is not much

A fourth ticket may grow out of the reform
conference held In New York on Monday

sense 10 resolve not to nominate any ticker
until after the Cincinnati and ST. Louis con.
ventions had been held. But in case the ac-
ZION OF these conventions is not satisfactory
the reformers will almost certainly name
candidates of their own.

A case Of good deal of interest to street
car conductors was decided In Baltimore
Thursday. One Of the city lines requires all
conductors to deposit the sum of $50 with
fhe company as security for faithful per-
formance OF duty, the conductors signing a
written agreement that In case they fail to
return fares collected by them they shall for
felt the amount deposited. A conductor was
|discharged the other day on the report of a
detective that he was in the habit of "knock.
ling down." The company declined 10 restore
the deposit, and suit was brought to re.
cover. The court decided In favor of the
ex-conductor, Judge Pinkney holding that
The clause was void In the agreement max
Ing the detectives report the evidence of
delinquency. He said 1t was against the
policy OF the law to allow a party to a cause
70 divest himself OF the right secured to him
Dy the law to be confronted with the witness
ana 70 cross-examine him. Had this clause
been omitted, and proper proof given In open
court OF the failure to return fares, the agree
ment would have been valid and the $50
would have been forfeited as Iiquidated
damages.

In most OF the states II is considered un-
wise policy TO permit husband and wife TO
testify for or against each other In criminal
cases, and consequently the laws prohibit 1t.
Several states, however, have passed laws
iegalizing such testimony. An act has just
received the approval of Gov. Tilden, of New
York, allowing wife to testify in favor OF
her husband In criminal cases IL she desires
70 do 90. Laws prohibiting such evidence
are apparently based on the belief that wives
would perJure themselves to save their hus-
bands and vice versa. Many take the view
that the testimony Of husbands and wives In
criminal cases Is essential, and that from
the character Of the evidence preyiously
taken and under the skilfal examination
aud cross examination, the amount Of cred
enee to be attached TO such testimony could
be Pretty accurately ascertained.

of cavalry after them, when we reached
camp. After crossing Big Goose we
were nearly q dozen miles from our camp
on Little Goose creek, and you may
Judge how badly we were used up, when
it took four hours to make six miles.
The rocks had skinned our feet and
starvation had weakened our frames.
Only few were vigorous enough to
push on. At 5 o'clock we saw few
more Indians, but we took no pains to
conceal ourselves further. They evi-
IDENTIFY mistook us for camp outguard,
and, being only handful, kept away.
At o'clock we met some cavalry out
hunting, and we sent into camp for
horses, as most of the men could walk
no further. Capts. De Wees and Row
ellie, of the Second Cavalry, came out to
us with led horses, and we reached camp
at 10 o'clock Monday morning amid con-
gratulations from every side. The men
who remained at Goose creek were
brought in some hours later. Thus,
after passing through incredible danger
and great privation, every man out Of
thirty, unwounded as by a miracle, found
himself safe in Camp Cloud Peak, sur
rounded by comrades. For conducting
this retreat with such consummate sue
cess, Frank Grouard deserves the highest
place among the scouts of the American
continent.
The Oldest of our Indian fighters, in
Guiding Col. Royal, concur in saying
that escape from danger so imminent
and appalling in manner so successful
is unparalleled in the history of Indian
warfare.

The Bulgarian Massacre.

tConstantnople Cor. London Daily News
AS to the accuracy of all the plain
facts there can be no doubt. In Con-
stantinople nobody hesitates to believe
that many thousands of innocent men,
women, and children have been slaugh-
tered, that at least sixty villages have
been utterly destroyed, that the most
terrible scenes have been committed, and
that district among the most fertile in
the empire has been ruined for many
years to come. have never pretended
that the statistics of death and plunder
could be given with anything like accu-
racy. In an indiscriminate destruction
OF lives and property only the broad
facts are possible. In many cases, per-
toward exaggeration. But have taken
the lower number rather than the
higher, and have dismissed many stories
which are probably well founded, but
exaggerated. In the statements / have
made there is, believe, no exaggera-
ton. The allegations made in my last
letter of the villages destroyed were
definite. If any one is denied, the issue
becomes one of fact, and will prove it
or admit that / have been misinformed.
Till then it is idle to talk about exagger-
alton. l have spoken to
Turks who put the number of killed at
10000. have met with officials con-
nected with the various embassies which
have had special information, and have
heard virtually the same account from
all. Nowhere, to my knowledge, has
the estimate of the killed-the great
majority Of whom are on all hands be-
lieved to be innocent--been put lower
than $4,000. I have spoken with mer-
chants who have had private letters
telling the same tale. The Bulgarian
Exarch has made substantially the same
statements to the Porte in an official
paper. From all sources comes q COM
pact body of testimony showing that
crimes have been committed on scale
which Europe has not known for many
years. Turkey has been telling Europe
for years that she has arrived at state
of civilization where she ought to be
recognized as within the pale of inter
national laws, that the capitulations
ought to be abolished, and that she
ought no longer to be treated as semi
barbarous power. The facts / have
mentioned are sufficient comment on her

The Devastation OF Property.

The year 1857 witnessed failures in
this country to the amount Of 1921, ,750,-
600, which is larger than the failures OF
any one year in the present depression.
But counting the failures Of 1857 and of
the three following years we have to-
tai of $500, 600, 600, while, If we add the
failures of 1873-4-5-6, the sum total is
1886, 900, 900, or 1925, 600, 900 more than
in the period Of 1857. Again, the crisis
OF 1857 was spread over the whole coun-
try, North and South alike. In 1878,
the South had not recovered from the
destructive agencies of the war, and it
probably has not suffered from the crisis
itself as severely, in proportion, as in
1857. But the whole country has suf-
fered vastly lower deep OF financial
misfortune, from its long continuation.
If we reckon the past five years, the in
solvencies of the country amount to
more than one thousand millions, or
the equivalent of one-fourth OF the as-
sessed valuation of all the personal prop
erty in the country in 1870, and one
tenth of all the real estate. If we reckon
the total loss by bankruptcy to be $780,
600, 900, and the depreciation of other
property to he 20 per cent, one-fourth
of the valuation of the property of the
country in 1870 has been wiped out,
Some of this destruction of property
as in the case of all forms of credits
absolute. The notes gone to protest
and settled at % cents on the dollar, the
railroad bonds subscribed for at par, and
now in all degrees of depreciation, the
second and third mortgages, which have
been foreclosed out of existence, have
all been absolutely destroyed, so far as
they have become worthless. The loss
on mills, houses, lands, is merely des
truction by their depreciation, destruc
tion of values, not of things. Sprtng
