Colonel Ksough's company, and had been
taken a prisoner at the Little Big Horn

stantiatt his assertion, and the following
facts we're aseertsnsd. Ryau's lie had
been spared by Sitting Bull himself, who
adopted him into his own family. Ryan

. WAsHINGToN, February 2.-rhere
has been some misunderstanding abolI
the action of the senate committee on
Louisiana in reference to an attempt
to subpoena the returning board out Of
the custody of the sergeant-at-arms
of the House. This request has not
so far been made, but the senate COM
mittee has asked for the privilege of
seeing and examining the original
returns from the parish of Vernon,
now in possession of the house COM
mittee on powers and privileges. The
propriety of acceding to this request
was discussed in executive session by
the committee this afternoon, and they
decided to grant it, With the UNDER
standing that the paper In question
must not be retained by the senate
committee longer than a single day.
In regard to the alleged requisition
for the returning bosrd members, the
house committee will emphatically
resist any such attempt to rob them of
their prisoners, and their action will,
OF course, be sustained by the House
They argue that the Senate has no
more right than common individual
10 interfere with any regular process
of the representative body.

In the House, it was ordered that the
consideration of the Florida report should
