The Republicans in the House did not
care to discuss the bill to-day, for the
reas pn that it is believed by many that 1t
does not seriously interfere with existing
laws in reference to elections, and for
the additional reasons that there is a
feeling among Republicans that it will
be approved by the President. In the
Senate it will not be permitted to pass
withou protracted discussion, as Sena-

From the ENQUIRER. Rep,

The question of the army at the polls
is to be fought all over again in Congress
on the bill presented by the Democrats
providing that troops shall not be part of
the election machinery of the country.
There is no use whatever in wasting
more time over this matter; the friends
of it are strong enough to pass it in both
char hbers, as they have already passed it
in the House, and the chances are q
thou sand to one that the President will
appr owe it when presented to him as a
distinct and independent measure.

Immediately after the Criminal Court con-
vencd yesterday morning Joseph II. Tall,
James Edwards, aud John Graham wore pre-
scntol as talcsmcn for filing tho panel of the
petit jury, sworn, examined, and accepted.
Tho first case called WAS that OF Stephen
Power, indicted for grand larceny At the re-
quest Of the court Mr.. j. S. Bldnkman argued
and conducted the defense, the prisoner being
too poor TO retain n lawyer. When the jury
was called these three talcsmGn were found
upon the panel, and while the gentlemen were
tax ing their seats Mr. Blankman objected to
them.
lie called the courts attention to the fact
that on the day previous he had made state
mcnt to the effect that no professional Jurors
should be allowed TO sit in trials. Now, ono
of the men about TO go into the panel was on
the ,pancl of the last jury in this court, one
was on the panel Of the last term of the Cir
cult Court, and the third had served on pre-
vious term of the grand jury. He certainly
| should object to these men serving in the case
| Justice lIagncr said that there was nothing
prohibiting the jurors serving, but there was q
great impropriety in their doing so, more cs.
| pocially as there were plenty Of good citizens
| to be found iu the District capable aud able TO
perform the duty and who should DO called
| upon TO perform their share of service to the
| Government.
Mr.. Bankman then peremptorily chal
longed Mcssrs. Tall and Edwards, and theil
places were filed in the panel and the cau5,
| prosecuted.
