Sheridan Captured.

The sharpest thief in the country
is now in the hands of Pinkerton'l
detectives. There are eighty-twt
indictments over his heal, and ht
goes indifferently by the name o
Walter Sheridan, Walter Steward
and Charles Rslston. He is na.ivt
of New Osleans, and bis first appear
ance before the public in criminal
role was in Missouri, in 1850, when
he turned up ss horse thieT-heing
then about % years old. Soon after.
ward, Sheridan aud one Joe Moran
were arrested for robbing hotel al
Chicago, and Sheridan was sentenced
to five years Imprisonment at Alton,
Shortly after serving his time out
AS a man named Blanchard was car
rying tin case containing large
quantity Of bonds from one place tc
another in New York city, Sheridar
engaged him in conversation SO that
he laid down his tin case on one cor
ner OF an apple stand, and one OF
Sheridan's pals ran of with it. In
1868. Sheridan and Charles Hicks
robbed the First National Bank OF
Sprlngville, III, of $4,000. Sheri-
dan was arrested with $I2 600 of the
money, but on trial escaped convic-
ton through what every body belelv-
ed to be a purchased and packed
jury. Hicks went to Joliet for ten
years, Sheridan was partner in the
robbery of the Maryland Fire Insur.
ance Company, Baltimore, of 1920
900. Then, with George Gorson,
as pal, he stole S27 600 of bonds from
Hawley's bank, Scranton, Pa. He
was, aiterward engaged in he $4,000
robbery at Clzaveland, Ohio. ln 1872
be took $l02,7O0 of forged Buffalo
and Erie bonds to the New York
Guarantee and Idemu'ty Company,
aud so vel! was the work don, that
be obtained loan of $4,000 On
the same forged security he obtained
from the National Trust Company q
loan of $4,000. When these forger-
les were discovered Pinkerton was
put upon his track, and his detec.
lives followed him to Salt Lake City,
Omaha, and almost all other parts of
the United States, as well as to
Europe. Sheridan is married, and
has one child. He is man of good
and gentlamanly address, scrupulous
as to language and department, dress
es with plainness, avoiding every
thing fiashy in appearance, and is
the last man who would be suspect
ed from his appearance of any rascal
ity-which renders him all the more
dangerous.

THE TVEED VERDICT

The Jury in the Tweed case wasted little
time in making up their verdict. Indeed the
case was so clear that there was no reason to
imagine they could disagree, except perhaps
over some minor details of the account. and it
is not at all surprising that they should have
promptly come into court with an award to
the plaintiff of nearly the full amount of the
final claim. Deducting a certain sum for war
rants not proved to be fraudulent, the city
asked Judgment for $6,957 ,434, including in
terest, and the verdict is for Sc, 537, III. This
result is a striking confirmation of what the
press has so often declared, that Tweed had
no defense against the suit, and that the
maneuverings for delay by which his counsel
have prolonged the proceedings and diverted
to their own pockets so much of the stolen
estate were nothing less than a public scandal.
The next step will probably be an appeal.
And then the pertinent question will occur,
Under whose instructions are the counsel for
the defendant actingl Tweed has broken jail
and run away. He is really in contempt of the
court Yet his lawyers claim for him all the
privileges which the courts allow, and will 20
on contesting the city's righteous demands to
the last extremity. Who supplies them with
means Who pays their fees ! Mr.. Field de-
clares that he has not received cent since his
client went away. Mr.. Field intimates that he
does not know where to find Mr. Tweed and
is not in communication with him. In most
countries when a swindler has been beaten in
court, forfeited bail, escaped from prison, and
run away from his counsel, the fight is thought
to be about over. But we do things differently
from other people in this free country. Here
the great contest goes on automatically, so to
speak; and Mr.. Field may renew proceedings
with as much composure as if his client had a
standing in court.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Secretary Bristow and men of his caliber are
the only Presidential candidates whose stock appears to
be rising now.
Major Jonathan w. Gordon is an eccentric
sort OF Republican candidate He has been put the
state ticket In Indiana but refuses TO pay tho assess
ment for campaign purposes. He says they may take
his name of II they TO, but pay he won't Major
Gordon was good soldier, and ~ an honest man.
Signs of formidable third-party sentiment
apparent In all directions. Anything but rsclass
nominations by both the great parties Will develop
organization with suddenness that will astonish
the workers" The people are about mad enough TO
take politics into their own hands
Gen. James NJ. Comfy writes from Washing
ton: 81 am authorized by Gen Garfield 10 mako
peremptory and unconditional denial Of the report that
he Is endCavOring delegation adverse Hayes
from his District He is for Hayes SO all the Re
pubicans OF the Ohio delegation in both Houses Of
gress, and all Ohio Republicans have met In Washing
ton"
Perhaps il might be well for the jealous
organs which discaimng all party responsibility for
Bcknap because he Democrat till Grant lifted him
into the Cabinet 10 remember that the President
himself Democrat till he mado Republican Presi-
dent Or are the organ, preparing the way for dsclan-
ing all responsibility for tho Presidents acts few
months from nOw1
Here is good specimen of the sort of talk
which the Beknap explosion Is calling out from devoted
Republican journals. The Nec- BEDFORD Mercury. a
thoroughly orthodox party paper, says; "If the Re
publican party dreams OF success 1t must deserve II by
placing In nomination for the President man In whose
capacity and integrity tho whole people oonfidea
who needs absolutely defense and whose best euoy
the record OF his public life Three weeks since had
no rnth in tho nomination of BENJAMIN H. Rrstow To-
day IL seems VA. the Republican party has TO choose
between his nomination and defeat"
1t looks as if the President would not be
allowed in tho future TO stand by his friends" 40

despotisrn

"Let no guilty witness escape say Grant,
Pierrep0nt, and the Republicans who insist
that the notorious Safe-burglary Court shall be
enabled 10 clear Belknap and convict Marsh.
"Let no guilty Democrat DO exposed say
Mcssrs. Randall, Whitthorne. and others, who
make haste to proclaim that there is nothing
wrong in the Navy Department. Let justice
be done, without regard TO party; let crime of
all sorts be exposed and let guilty persons be
punished wherever their evidence is not needed
by the Government to convict more important
criminals, say tho honest voters throughout
the land. II will not fare well with either
party if it dlsrcgards this demand. lmmeasur-
ably more damaging to the Republican party
than anything else is the evidence that great
efforts have been made to suppress disclosures
and to ntimidate witnesses. Mr.. PierrcpOnt
has done all that he could to clear
lis own reputation, by showing that
the letter to Col. Dyer was silrreptitiousy
obtained and published by Gen. BabcOck
but he has not shown why he did not
Indignantly resign when ordered TO write
such a letter. With President Grant, he has
shown peculiar zeal in attempting to place all
evidence against Gen. Belknap at the disposal
appear that he was ignorant that such pro-
ceeding would insure Belknaps escape and
the conviction of Marsh, the guilty witness
VIGOROUSLY, the behavior of the President and
his law officer has been such ~ to deter par
Elephants in crime from giving evidence against
officials, and it will not he easy TO make the
people believe that the natural effect of such
behavior was not considered and intended.
AS for the Democrats, they are exceedingly
backward in coming forward about trans
actions in the Navy Department. No Con-
gressional Committee was needed to show
that there were very unpleasant secrets to be
disclosed in tho performances Of that depart
mcnt, nor will it be possible to convince the
average voter that there has not been foul
play, if Democratic House impeaches the
Secretary of War; and fin no. ground for
action respecting tho Secretary of tho Navy.
Members of Congress may as well understand
for information. II has learned by sad expert
ence that "a malignant press is pretty sure
TO anticipate Congressional disclosures by about
four years Democrats cannot bottle up the
facts, try IA much as they will. Mr.. Randalls
anxiety to save the Navy Department has been
limited, nor are his relations with League
Island forgotten. II Democratic House
shields any misconduct in the Navy Depart
ment, its motive will be understood.
"Whom the gods would destroy they first
"make mad" Both parties act as if they were
on the high road to destruction. II is mere
madness for Republicans 70 lend any aid what

ever to the effort to brighten witnesses. 1t Is
mere madness for Democrats to try to save
any member of their party who may nave
been participant in fraud. What the country
demands is not that cheapest conceivable dls-
play of virtue, the readiness of one party to
EXPOSE the crimes of the other. 1t finds In the
Republican party one man in high place VINO
has not hesItated to expose CRIMINALS OF MS
own political faith. 1t appreciates that sort OF
devotion to the public good and requires from
Democrats behavior not less honest and
patriotic. The people intrusted n share OF
power to the Democratic party because, IN
the main, they believed that the result
would be complete and impartial exposure
They want the whole truth, and for years
they have been permitted to see, except in
the columns Of "a malignant press" only SO
much as either party considered serviceable to
its ends. The swelling torrent of public lndig-
nation means destruction, not to one party or
the other, but to both, if both cOnspire to
conceal any part of the truth. Broad daylight
must shine into every neglected nook and
filthy corner about the Capitol. If the Demo-
Gratis dare not "take off the roof" the people
will find men who will. IL neither party Will
wage uncompromising war against corruption,
it is quite within the bounds of possibility
that a man may be elected who v IL owe
nothing to either party.

Something was squeezed out of Mr.. Wolf,
the recusant witness before the Committee on
Naval Affairs, at an early hour yesterday
which perhaps was fortunate, as he dropped in
fainting fit later in the day. The testimony
involves clerks in the Navy Department in

details to the dishonest practices in Post-Office
