sCHURZ DEFENDs THE INDIAN
SERVICE.

Washington, Dec. 5.-secretary sohurz is emil
nently able to "hoe his own row" in the discus.
sion about transferring the Indian Bureau to the
War Department. Talking to the Heral cores
pondent to-day, he said that the army officers
were bringing up all the old rascalites Of the In.
dian service as If they were fresh occurrences un
der his administration Of the Interior Depart
ment, and we're not candid enough to give him
credit for the reforms he had instituted and for
the present economical and efficient management
OF the service. he thought the present movement
OF the army officers arose from desire to have
additional employment so as to show that they
were busy and could not stand a reduction Of
their force and to have an opening for getting re-
tired officers back into service on full pay. As
specimen Of the unjust changes made against the
bureau, he said that 1t had been accused Of gorg-
ing the Sioux with a buperabundanCe of food
and starving the Cheyennes, while the fact was
that the ration per head issued to each of these
tribes was precisely the same in quantity and
quality. Secretary SChurZ said he did not believe
the army could administer the Indian service
economically. II the beef aud flour bought the
past year for the Indians by the Bureau had been
bought by the army officers at the prices paid for
those articles by the army the cost to the Govern
| ment would have been 100000 more than II act.
| ually was, He called attention 10 the fact thai
| since he went into the Interior Department q
| number OF thieving agents and contractors had
| been convicted and imprisoned circumstance
unparalleled In the history OF the Indian service

"Do you want me to tell you who ought to be
the Democratic candidate for Governor next

Yes SIR" said the man with lead pencil.
well, who do you think" asked the Judge,
turning the tables on the interviewer.
II am after your opinion, Judge"
"Well, sir we ought to nominate Allen @.
Thurman"
why Thurman
because he can get more votes than any other
Democrat in Ohio Because he has more at Stake

Hamburg, Dec 7-Captain schwenzen Of the

city statement Of the events relating to the catas

sucked down into the vortex. did not have on

desperate struggle where most fortunately en-.

Captain schwenzen details the events following
the collision which occurred while he left the
bridge Tor few moments to visit the chart house,
In order 10 examine the course.
Respecting the conduct Of the officers and crew
after the collision, the Captain continues, II can
only speak in terms Of the highest praise. Ny
orders were carried out calmly and effectually.
The report that some OF the crew attempted to
save their personal property and neglected to at
tend to the proper equipment OF the boats or the
safety OF the passengers, is according to my obser
Vation, utterly unfOuBded. Into the lastboat that
pulled away saw passenger hurl an iron cor

few seconds OF the sinking of the PoumeFania.

The words OF praise which the Captain speaks
In behalf of his officers In the moment OF trial are
touching and generous, coming az they do from
the lips Of commander who lives to hear II said
OF him that he went down with his ship, and WO'd
not leave her while she hoated. In conclusion,
Captain 9chWeDzen rays:
II do not wish TO be understood as singing any
one man out for mora praise than another. do
not know q man who did not do his duty. The

A TERRIBLE MISTAKE.
Shooting Her Brother Because She Took Him for
q Tramp.

Tramp
Pittsburgh, December IA terrible and dis.
tres ing affair occurred last night at Hillside Sta
ton, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, about 50
miles from this city. young lady named
Hotham, the daughter Of John HOtham well
known resident Of Hillside, had been left at home
with two younger sisters, aged 9 and IL respec'
lively. About $3.50 o'clock her brother, Joseph
Hotham, returned from q spelling bee which had
been given in the neighborhood,snd was mis-
taken by the young lady for tramp and shot
dead as he stood ON the porch in front Of the
door. The whole charge from the shot gun which
she Rred at him entered his right breast, AMI the
only words he uttered were my dear sister" It
seems that Joseph tried to scare the girls by pass
ing himself off as tramp, and succeeded 80 well
that they did not recognize him at all. The poor
girl who did the shooting has become almost in.
sane with grief and doubts are entertained of her
recovering her mind.
