Russell was the commander Of the United States

1t was not the lot OF this part Of the army to
reap much from the field Of glory. The Indians
had the prudence to keep out Of the way. The
most that was accomplished was the destruction
OF some Indian villages aud their stores OF pro-

modorc Perry gained his celebrated victory on
Lake Eric, and soon after the American furces
crossed tho lake and landed at Maiden, which
had been deserted by the British army. On the
nth Harrison arrived at Sandwich, and Gen
Macarthur took possession ut Detroit, as the
British army had done more than rear before,
without firing gun. Thus was the Northwest
restored again to the possession Of the Ameri-
cans. Soon after, at the battle Of the Thames,
Tecumthe was killed, aud the Indians were
completely subdued.
Mi. Kinzie and his family, who have had
leading place In the interest OF the reader
through this sketch, were removed from St.
Joseph to Detroit, and, MIR. knzie being sur
rendered to the commander as a prisoner of
war, his family were permitted to reside there.
For much Of the time he was separated from his
family, kept In confinement in the eastern part
Of Canada with view Of sending him to En-
gland. When the British were conquered he
was released.
OF what was passing at Chicago during the
war We know little: The Indians had de-
stroYcd all the buildings that were previously
erected here, excepting Mr.. kinzic's house.
This was occupied BY Frcnchman, who kept
up the Indian trade at this point. When Alr.
kinzic returned in 1916, he re-entcred upon
possession of his homestead and re-openel his
trade with the Indians. It was not until four
years after the massacre, when the troops re-
turned to this post, that the bones Of those who
had fallen on Aug. Is, l8I2, were collected and
buried.

THE GRAND JURY AND THE COUNTY HOS
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
CHICAGO. Aug. 1.-Two or three items which
have appeared in your issues Of tho last week
having set me in somewhat unsatisfactory
light, beg that you will allow me . little spaca
to explain.
Early last week Was visited partly in a pro
fessional aud partly in 4 friendly way By gen
tlcman whom had never before seen or known
OF. Our conversation turning upon Hospital
matters, I did not attempt to con-
ceal my disgust for much that was
going on about me, but which I was
powerless to remedy. After I had so expressed
myself Twas made aware Of his semtoficiM
position as Grand Juror. Not to repeat the
whole conversation, the subject Of Grand Jury
Investigations in general, and the difficulty Of
obtaining legal evidence to convict was
trips. which have consisted principally of sa,np-
ling the liquor supplies and Of free lunch.
Our interview closed BY my agreeing, If SO de-
sired, to meet select few OF the jury privately,
since disliked the notoriety which such ingcs-
legations usually confer.
Imagine, then, my surprise at being called
before the whole jury and sworn- I at once
saw that tho hummer element was present in
sufficient numbers to protect its own, anu the
sequel has only justified mY conclusion. How
all questions to the best Of my knowledge
knowledge which they knew to be sufficiently
exact. The burden Of my testimony was, that
the cl,ict source OF oil the trouble ewas to be
recognized In the power thar corrupt
olttical and similar influence was al
lowed to exert; that just so long as
the present system of administration prevailed
the best interests Of the institution would
suffer; that while a single employe could secure
or maintain his position by political influence
aud not by merit, most serious blot OH the
reputation Of the institution existed; that this
species Of nepotism was rather the rule than
the exception; and TINT all OF the present
abuses we're not to be charged to the Warden.
since, in my humble estimation, he Tas often
powerlcss to effect that which, under other
I also stated that when nurse coul ID boast
that neither tile doctors nor the Warden could
put him out, complaint was simply farcical
While adducing a few illustrations from the 1
present condition OF the place, without referring
to the past, did not, Us reported complain that
the patients were neglected. But I will say
now, in this connection, that passive attention
to the welfare Of the suffering may assume the
proportions Of an active neglect, and that With
in nv memory more than one protest has been
entered against the former, and without avail.
And, finally, wish to protest against the
summary disposition Of the whole matter, since
mY evidence stands, and must stand, uniin-
pcached, Dan 0'Hara and Col. Cleary to the
contrary notwithstanding. Il a calm, dispas-
sionate statement of facts Is ever worth any
thing, especially when devoid OF any personal
prejudice against those whom 1t concerns,
think such statement worthy Of attention by
the body which chose to call for 1t.
