Calcasieu Pass arefound oysters, crabs,
shrimps and reddish.
The principal industries Of Calcasicu
parish, SO far, have been stock raising
and the lumber business. We have
heard native Texans say they have never
seen beef equal to that killed in our
markets at Lake Charles. The com
pletion Of the New Orleans and Texas
railroad, however, will open mp new
and permanent departure in sCalcasieu
from the old order Of business, and with
the introduction of scientific farming
and fruit raising here we predict that
in a few years Calcasieu will become
as famous for its fruits and farms as it
now is for its lumber and beeves.
All q. s. public lands in Calcasien,
including many hundred Thousand acres
of valuable pine timbered lands, are
for sale at the II s. Land Office at
New Orleans, at 1925 per acre, and
are also subject To homestead entry in
tracts not exceeding 100 aeres. III the
lumber business the mills pay for logs
from $3.50 to $6 per Thousand feet.
In the log business choppers get 49,

Pottar Committee

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Prof. Edward
S. Holden, of the naval observatory, was
sworn to translate, without divulging in
any way, the cipher kilograms which we're
handed to the committee by Gen. Butler.
Green, recalled, stated that he made
another search fof the dispatches between
Tyner and Chandler and burnt some of
them. There were seven or eight alto
gether. One was telegram from Tyner
about making two appointments 10 the
interior department at salaries OF $1,000
each, and asking Chandler to do this and
have the money deposited iu some national
bank, SO that it might be drawn in Indian
apolis by the Republican committee. The
kilograms also contained the names of the
persons to be appointed. He could not
remember what those names were, but be
believes one was Martin. Chandler tele
graphed that he had deposited the money
as requested.
A long discussion here ensued as to the
scope OF the investigation, and whether
the Tribune ciphers only were to be exam
ined into, or all cipher kilograms no matter
oy whom sent. 1t was finally decided that
the subject now under examination be pro-
ceeded with, but the committee adjourned
