practically justified and sustained al the
| infinite rascality of the returning boards.
They not only refused to take voluntary
notice of the atrocious frauds perpetrated
| by them, but they excluded the proofs OF
their corruption which the Democratic
counsel held in, their hands and offered
to exhibit. These commission ners chok.edd k.d
off the evidence, and smothered it as re-
moclr,sely as Wells and his associates sup
| pressed Democratic returns. And this
they put on the express ground that, to
them it was all one whether the action of
these boards was fraudulent or not. They
would suffer no proof of corruption, to
invalidate the right claimed by Hayes
man to put in the vote Of 2 State TOR his
candidate. This monstrous and unenduf
rable outrage was resisted to the utmost.
| All of the seven implored and protested
against it. Judge Clifford, the President
Of the commission, laid it down as q
maxim of the common law, that fraud
yitiates whatever it touches, and proved
it undeniably. He might have proved
more. It is not merely q maxim of the
common law; it belongs to all countries
and all ages /; no code can claim it exclu-
siyely; it peryades all systems Of jpris-
prudence; it has its home in every hon,
est heart; it is the universal sentiment
fall just men it applies to all human
| dealings. Judge Field looked in the face
of the majority, and told them plainly
their disregard Of this great principle was
"as shocking in morals as it was unsound
in law" and. added; "It is elementary
knowledge that fraud yitiates all pro-
ceedings, even the most solemn; that no
form Of words; no amount of ceremony,
no solemnity of proceeding, can shield 1T
from exposure or protect its structure
from assault and destruction, But the
eight were as deaf as adders to the voice
of reason and justice. They would not
permit the fraud to be assaulted, much
less to be destroyed. They stood over il
to shield it, protect it, and save it. inter
posing the broad egis Of their authority
to cover it against every attack. lnal"
The eight persistently denied theil
1 power or that of Congress ! to do what
they were commanded BY the law to d.
THAT is, decide who were duly appoint

Kellogg's Ordeal.

Washington, Nov. 10.-At meeting
Of the Committee on Elections on Mon
day next, the following resolution will
he submitted by Senator Hoar:
RESOLVED, That after hearing such
evidence as the committee shall deem
competent, the committee will report
to the Senate its conclusion upon the
following questions: -t.
l. Whether the persons holding cer-
tificates from the returning board alone
were entitled to vote in the election of
Senator at the time Kellogg claims to
have been elected?
2. Can any subsequent events affect
the legality of the election held on the
10th of January, 1877?
3. Did the returning board act
fraudulently in determining the ques-
tion to whom they should issue certifi-
Gates?
4. Whether the persons who voted
in the election of Kellogg were such
persons as would in fact have been
found entitled to have seats by the
respective houses on fair and just
trial, and a decision of each case on
its merits?

THE PRESIDENT AND PoNcAS.


Washington Nov. 10.-The Ponca
Indians, at the Executive Mansion this
afternoon, heard the response of the
President to their statements. The
President said: my friends, l have
carefully considered what you have
said to me. know you have been good
friends to the white people. There is
none of their blood on your hands.
You have always listened to what the
Government of :the white people has
said to you, and you have done what
you were told to do, and / will do all l
can to help you. You were removed
from your old reservation to guard you
from collision with other Indians who
were unfriendly to you. desire you
should live in peace and security,
and for this reason you were taken
away from the Missouri river, and for
some reasons think it would not be
good for your own welfare that you
should travel back so great distance
to the same place. Your people are
now in tho Indian Territory together
with other Indian tribes who are friend
ly to you and with whom you can live
in peace and good neighborhood.
You are exposed to much annoyance
from bad men who steal your cattle
and ponies, and demoralize your people
with whisky. Mindful of your conduct
desire to consult your wishes. There
is much good land in the Indian Terri
tory, further away from white settle
ment, where you will not be exposed to
to such annoyances. For the land
which you left on the Missouri river
you shall nave a tract as large and fer
tile, with plenty of timber and plenty
Of water courses. 1 will permit you to
send out some of your chiefs to make
selection for your people of lands which
still belong to the government, in the
Indian Territory. The lands so Sc
lected you shall have to cultivate and
raise crops and cattle for yourselves and
children.

LYNCH LAW.
A Murderer in the Hands of Indignant
Citizens.

A Murderer in the Hands of Indignant
Citizens.
st. Louis, New. 10.-Carl Strahl,
alias Joe Engeler, who was arrested
here yesterday for numbering Mrs.
Goetz near Columbia, Illinois, was
lynched there to-day by mob of citi-
zens. Strahl made a confession to the
officers who took him from here last
night, the purport of which is that he
first shot and killed Henry Goetz, some
distance from his home. He then
went to the house and killed Mrs.
GoetZ, took Goetz' mules and wagon,
robbed the house and premises of every
thing of any value and started for st.
Louis. When these facts were made
known this morning, about one hun
dred citizens determined to lynch the
fiend, and after compelling him to show
them where he had secreted the body
of Goetz, they took him to the woods
and suspended him to a tree. Robbery
seems to have been the mans motive.

Progress of the Army Appro-
priation Bill

Washington, Nov. 10.-At 12:25 the
House went into committee of the
whole, Cox in the chair, on the Army
Appropriation bill, the pending amend
ment being that offered by Crittenden,
limiting recruiting in the cavalry and
infantry to the number in the service
on the 1st inst. ..-..
Crittenden's amendment was re-
jected by 1O4 to III.
Culberson offered the following
amendment: The four cavalry regi-
ments be recruited to 100 men for each
company, which force shall be employed
in defense of the Mexican. and Indian
frontier of Texas. adopted after being
amended thus: That the recruiting of
enlisted men shall be limited to $1,000,
of which four full regiments of cavalry
shall be kept upon the Mexican from
tier.
An amendment offered by Hooker
prohibiting the use of troops to suppress
insurrection or protect order, in any
state except on demand of the legisla-
ture or Executive, has given rise to an
animated discussion, Garfield. leading
the opposition and pointing out the
danger of having such law on the
statute books as would have in 1861
tied the hands of the President and
wrought the destruction of the govern
ment..
Hooker's amendment was rejected,
1877 to 3s.
The bill then passed through COM
mittee of the whole and is now before
the House for action.
Hooker asked unanimous consent to
have a vote taken on it in the House.
Shouts of ''agreed, agreed" came
from the Republican side of the Honse,
but objection was made on the Demo-
cratic side.

Bland's Silver Bill.

Washington, Nov. Bland's sill
yer bill gives any holder of silver bull
lion the right to take 1t to the mints
and have it coined free of expense. 1t
is now urged that the only persons who
will be benefited by such provisions
will be the holders of silver bullion at
the time it goes on the Statute books,
the producers of it and those people in
Europe or elsewhere who have large
quantities to sell. An amendment to
change this effect will likely be made
in the Senateand accepted by the House.
The Senate finance committee is so
evenly divided on the silver question
that prompt action is improbable.

The Coming Senate Close.

Washington, Nov. 10.-The proba-
bilities are that Kellogg and Eustis will
be seated by the Senate within three
weeks. The chances largely favor But
ler's admission from South Carolina
soon after Voorhees, admission on
Monday. This will make the Senate
stand, Republicans, 80; Democrats, "a,
and Davis of Illinois, Independent.
Patterson is liable to drop out any day
and then, if Davis votes with the Dem
ocrats and Democrat is elected in
Patterson's place it would be tie in
the Senate. This condition of affairs
will probably arise in three months.

The House Yesterday again defeated

THE House yesterday again defeated
all amendments for reducing the army,
the Republicans and Texas delegation
combining for that purpose, but finally
Clymer offered an amendment that four
full regiments of cavalry be stationed
on the Texas frontier, providing the
full army shall not exceed 20, 900 men.
The Texans then changed their tactics
and voted for the amendment and car
ried it, 121 to ia. They hesitated
about the vote, but yielded to the per-
suasions of their party associates.
Should the Senate agree, Texas will
have one-fifth of the army.

Republican Senatorial Caucus.

Washington, Nov. 10.-The Republi-
can members of the Senate held eau
Gus to-day, lasting five hours. 1t was
very fully attended. The topics dis
cussed were theso-called ssSouthern pol
icy'' and civil service policy, with spe-
cial reference to the Louisiana contest
and sundry nominations before the
committee. Opinions were freely in
terchanged by nearly all the Senators,
showing that the majority were not in
accord with the views and action of
the President on the subjects discussed,
and less than a majority were disposed
to make any formal issue with him.
Such course was not deemed .expedi-
ent in a party sense, nor called for by
the publicinterest under the present cir
cumstances.
The strictest secrecy was enjoined
upon each attendant on the Republican
Senatorial caucus to-day, which would
indicate that the session was violent
and inharmonious. Most of the sensa-
tional dispatches are being sent out to-
night on that supposition, and words
are being put into Conkling's mouth
similar to those of his alleged New
York interview. The. best authority
states as to the general result, the
caucus was harmonious. and there is
hope for perfect unity and less fear of
rupture than since last March, There
was unanimously good feeling at the
close. No hearty endorsement of the
President was made. One Senator said
the Republicans generally didn't seem
to approve anything the Administration
