miles, as our hard litters did not answer

in making a full supply of them. On
the evening of the 29th We started again,

were brought down to the de pot on the

AFTER HENDRICKS.
Damaging Revelations Concern
ing Him.
RumOr That He Will be Struck
OF tie Ticket.
Special to the Boston Herald.)

Special to the Boston Herald)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-Revelations affecting
the reputation of Gov. Hendricks of Indiana
most unfavorably have resulted from the ex-
animation of records of q mule claim which he
induced the War Department. to pay in 1870,
and the case is a much worse one than that
which has given George FL. Pendleton SO much
disrepute. The claim itself was bad one, but
Governor Hendricks connection with it lie
worse. A citizen of Indianapolis named Hall
failed to complete a contract for supplying
mules to the government. after having fur.
uished 80 of them. The government refused,
under the terms of the contract, to pay for
them, and Hall assigned the claim, amounting
to 81, 800. to man named Henderson, who is a
cousin of Hendricks. Hall was tried by court
martial for having bribed government officers
and dsfrauding the government on another con-
tract aud was sentenced to pay fine of $10-
900 and be imprisoned for six months. Hen
bricks, while a Senator, took mp the claim for
his cousin, made an effort and failed to get it
paid at the War Department He than tried
to lobby it through the Senate committee on
claims, writing the petition himself while still
Senator, and again failed. He ceased to be
Senator in 1869. but continued to prosecute
the claim, finally getting favorable opinion
from Mckee Duren, the Judge Advocate of the
War Department., who approved the Ken
lucky Central Railroad claim for Pendleton.
The two claims come close together on the
books of the War Department. The claim was
paid in 1870, and the papers and records show
Hendricks connection with it throughout. The
payment of the claim was fraud on the gov
ernment. A further important fact is that
Hendricks secured pardon for the culprit,
Hall, and aflerward got him a place in the
New York custom house Ii is not at all I'M
likely that Hendrl cks will be compelled to re-
tire from the Democratic ticket.
