HAYT AND TERRY.
The Commissioner Gives His Version of
the Origin of the Controversy in Rela-
ton to Half Breeds at Indian Agencies.

The Commissioner Gives His Version of
the Origin of the Controversy in Rela-
ton to Half Breeds at Indian Agencies.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-Indian Commissioner
Hayt publishes paper on the recent endorse
ments received by Gems. Sheridan and Terry of
report made by Col. Carlin regarding half
breeds born at Indian agencies, and says the
paper would have appeared sooner but the sec
rotary of the interior regarded it needless.
The commissioner addressed his communica-
tlon to whom it may concern, and gives this
origin of the trouble: Early in December
last there was conference at the White
House, intended to enable the civil and mill
tary branches of the government to act in har-
mony and promptly ascertain the work to be
done on the Missouri river. After the business
had been disposed of some conversation passed
between Gen. Sherman and myself about the
Generalization caused by proximity of soldiers
camps to Indian agencies. Gen. Terry, sitting
at some distance made remark he believed
the Sioux women to be exceptionally virtuuus,
and asked me if it were not 30. / said in
reply, that 1t 1T were SO those at Standing
Rock Agency must be an exception, resi-
dents from the agency had been in the Indian
bureau aehort time previously, and had stated
that nearly one half of the children born at
that agency were half-breeds. This was all
that has passed between Gen. Terry and myself
on the subject and was the only reference made
to Standing Rock Agency. 1t would seem that
If there was anything said by me
on that occasion that would justify
Gen. Terry's subsequent letters, that was the
time and place to make the issue, as there were
present the President, Secretary Schurz, Gen.
Sherman, Gen. Terry, Supt. Hammond and
myself. Commissioner Hayt thus closes his
paper: Zone effect of the publication of these
endorsements will be to surprise the public
that officers in HIGH positiOna shOu III ind lpe
in style of remark that at best closely re-
sembles the Chinese method of warfare, and
has only to be persevered in to bring honorable
names into disrepute'.

LABOR PHILOSOPHERS.

New YORK, Aug. 26.The Congress labor

mechanics. YOU are fraud, bad counterfeit
and every intelligent person can see your

Charles 81. Marshall. ship owner, told the
story of the decline in the American shipping
trade, attributing it to England getting ahead in
the use of iron, construction of vessels, and
to the navigation laws which crushed
out the remaining vitality in the
shipping interests. There was absolutely no
return to capitalists in the ship owning trade
at present. Our profit is a negative one, as we
only save ourselves by running our ships at a
loss from the greater loss we would sustain by
letting them remain idle. He believed that a
sound currency and abolition of the navigation
laws would ultimately bring good times
around, through economy in national State
and municipal governments was vital neces-
sity.
Vice President Walker, of the gold and stool,
telegraph, held that the economical crisis was
caused by over absorption of ready capital into
hxed or permanent Investments thus drawing
Oft from the daily commercial business capital
necessary for its proper continuance of a set
tied currency sound coin basis Govern
mental supervision of all corporations, tenta-
tive financial and. fiscal legislation, and a
slight protective tariff, he believed, would
bring about another of prosperity and ac-
tivity.

The small houses on Watson street, be-

street, are inhabited by negroes who have
been intensely excited for several days past
by the nefarious practices of so-called
zens of Watson street believe the conjurer
has laid his spell is q young colored woman
named Julia Green, who was born in st.
Mary's county, Maryland. When the BUk
letan reporter met her yesterday she certainly
had the appearance of being woman who
had suffered terribly from some mysterious
cause. Thin, even to emaciation, her hands
were long and skeleton-like in their wanness,
while her eyes wore an anxious, restless
expression, as if she felt the
presence of some terrible malady.
While speaking she seemed deeply
affected, and talked in way that showed she
had no hope save from some superhuman
source. She says she came to Baltimore
about twelve years ago, and up to within
four months past had been living witha man
named Henry Clayton, by whom she had two

ed Julia, and commenced going with wom-
an named Maggie Mitchell. This created
ill-feeling between them, and one day the
woman Mitchell came to her house, No. rs
Weston street, and, pushing open the door,
came in and began to fight her. In the
melee which ensued Maggie pulled out a
handful of Julia's hair. After they were
separated Maggie stopped down, dipped it in
some of Julia's blood, which had been spilled
upon the floor, and going out remarked: 81
will fix her YETI Soon after this Clayton
went TO live with the woman Mitchell, who
continued to make threats against her.
One day, about four months ago, while
Julia was sitting in the kitchen with Clay
toms mother, she was suddenly seized with
intense pains all through her body; her mind
wandered, and her left arm became paralyzed.
Since then she has had similar sensations
repeatedly, while her body, which was strong
and feshy when the attacks commenced
has wasted away to shadow. Last Friday
while the children were playing in the yard
one of them dug up bottle. In it was 8

TOLEDO, Aug. 26.-The political campaign in
Northwestern Ohio was tonight opened on the
part of the Republicans by Secretary Sherman,
who addressed largely attended meeting at
Wheelers Opera House. The secretary devoted
himself mainly to consideration of the finan-
cial question. Mr.. Sherman during his speech
read letter from correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer of to-day. in which the fol-
lowing questions were asked about the trade
dollar: First-What is the matter with the
trade dollar? [ expect you to say it is not
legal tender, nor is it for ninety cents. Sec
ond-Dld the government receive dollar for
dollar when she put the trade dollar out? and,
Ihlrd-Did the person on receiving the trade
dollar from the government do so with the un-
Outstanding that he had to take it to China to
spend 1T! Ii anybody is to blame who is it?
He said that the trade dollar was not legal
tender but it is worth 80 cents as bullion The
standard dollar is a legal tender and therefore
worth par. This is the difference. To the
| second question he answered that the govern
ment did not receive dollar for dollar for the
trade dollar, but received IL cents for coming
| each dollar for private bullion owners. That
was all. 1t was the miller that ground the grist
for small percentage. To the third question
he replied that the bullion owner did receive
the trade dollar for expectation to China a de.
vice made to give him market for his bullion
and upon the fall of silver it was perverted by
MN as means of cheating our own people
