About the worst case OF red tape We ever
heard OF occurred during the examination
OF Master Conway, Of the wrecked Man-of-
War Huron before the Naval Court OF
Inquiry, in Washington, lew DAYS ago,
and is thus stated by the Washington cor
respondent Of the New York iriJa'e:
IN order that he might swim ashore with
oGr encumh.aucc, Master Conway stripped
hiuIssl II naked. Leaving the Huron" he was
east upon the beach in thai condition, and
dragged from The suIf by the fishermen.

The Importance Of the victory achieved
by the Russian army in the capture OF
Pievna cannot be over estimated. Ii virtu-
ally " breaks the back" of Turkey, and SETS
all Europe in state of feyerish anxiety as
10 the final result Of the war. There is but
little doubt now that the ultimate purpose
OF Russia is not TO capture COnstantinOple,
but 10 secure complete freedom for her
naval forces upon the Black Sea, and an
open passage for herself through the Oar
dauelles to the Mediterranean. In such a
purpose she can not but have
the sympathy OF other powers whose own
pre-eminence is not Immediately concerned.

territory, land-locked on both sides, and
iettered 10y ice three-fourths of the year on

a. =. MARSHAL MILLER.

We rcpublish letter from the Washing
ION correspondent OF MiIIer's organ here.
While Miller is making these charges
against Wilson and Keller, which, when the
truth Is known, amount TO nothing, and are
made only Tor the purPoseo of throwing dust
and diver;ing attention from himself, there
are some charges against Miller which he
takes particular pains 10 conceal.
The first charge is that the Marshal
charged up nearly 500, Tor The services OF
one Ayers As guard in bringing Dunlap
from Washington 10 Kansas. Ayers swears
be did not act As guard and that he was not
paid for such services and vet his name APP
pears ON the pay roll. Keller told us yes
sorday that Ayers, nor no one else came
from Washington as guard with him,
Again il l. charged that the Marshal re-
turned pay roll or receipt for guard to
escort the Gefaulting Wichita postmaster
Mr. West, TO i.eavgnworth, when in fact no
such guard was employed.
And vet again :, Is charged that a vouch-
er or vouchers have been signed by his dep
uyies or others in blank, and that such
voucher or vouchers were afterwards flied
with sum much greater ,haH the amount
paid such deputy.
Other EumoTs are in circulation OF dam
aging nature. There are old accounts Of
ihe GovDfnusatagsinst the party or parties
who have bsen L. 5. Marshal, in this
state.
Ii is very common to hear our citizens
condemn ext. ). Marshal Houston and
Tough, and commend Miller DO they for
get that Miller va, deputy under both these
gentlemen, and that ii Houston aud Tough
were guilty OF wrong doing in their official
capacity, that Deputy Miller, must have
been cognizant OF such.
