WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Mc-
Crary, Secretary of War, IN his an
nual report referring to the Ute out
break, takes the ground that the
Government should insist on its de-
mands for the surrender and pun
ishment of the Indians responsible
for the Meeker massacre and the
treacherous attack upon Major
Thornburgh's command. The Sec
retary recommends the sale and
abandonment of certain military
posts, and concurs in General Sher-
mans recommendation that the
army be fixed at 25,000 men, ex-
elusive of those on detached SER
vice. The Secretary has reduced
the Engineers estimates for river
and harbor improvements during
the next fiscal year from about
$4,000 to $1,000, 100000, and he has
also made reduction OF over
S3,OO0,000 from the estimates
(aggregating about $4,000. .O0o)
which were submitted for all other
public works under the War De-
partment.

CHEYENNE ivy. T.), Nov. 23.
The last official act of Judge
Fisher, Chief Justice of Wyoming,
prior to the termination OF his term
as presiding Judge in this Terri
tory, was to sentence ID. j. McCann
to Is months, imprisonment In the
penitentiary, to pay q fine of 5 ,O0O
and return the goods stolen from
the Government. McCann was, in
1875. a prominent candidate for
limited States Senator from Ne
braska, and for years has been an
extensive Government supply con-
tractor for different Indian agen-
eies. He has been tried several
times for appropriating Indian sup
niles, and was finally convicted
on a charge of stealing q
large quantity of sugar from the
Bannack Agency, for which he
had the transportation contracts.
When about to pronounce sentence,
tbe Court asked defendant If he
had anything to say why sentence
should not be passed upon him.
McCann arose, and In an extended
speech, protested that he was inno-
cent of any intention to commit
crime. He said that he thought
his course was in the interest of the
Goyernment; also that this was
the fret time in the history of his
family that any crime had been
charged against any one of them,
and hoped that after his sentence
had been served he would go live
that the stain of the charge oi
crime would be fully washed out.
