KALLOCH'S KICK.
A VIGOROUS CARD.

VIGOROUS CARD.
SAN Francisco, April 29.-The Post this
Afternoon publishes the following card from
young Kalloch: editor Post: 1 have not q
word to say about the facts or merits of nv
case. wish it to be tried in the ordinary way.
Fair play, especially towards q man charged
with murder, is supposed to be characteristic
of American communities, but l expect
no falr play on or before the
trial If the fast men and corrupt
detectives who surround the Chronicle Office,
and assume to run this city. can prevent it. 1t
is Infamous that public officers, who are paid
by the community, should work illegitimately
for private individuals and convert what ought
to be an honorable prosecution into malignant
persecution. The article published in the ChrOR-
icLe of last Sunday shows how some
OF our detectives invade private
houses and try to brighten ignorant
people. As for the arrest of Clementshaw 1
have this to say: do not know the man, and
make no statement as to my version as to what
transpired. do not say whether his statement
was correct or incorrect, but do declare that
he had no motive, so far as can see to conceal
or prevent the truth, and that there ia
nothing In his evidence to indicate perjury. It
looks to me as if his arrest is intended by the
Chronicle and the detectives, to warn the citi-
zens of San Francisco that they must not tes-
tify to any facts that would even tend towards
my exculpation. Yours truly,
j. NJ. KALLoCH.
The Post in another column says However
improbable it may appear in the face of the
testimony given at the inquest on the body of
the late Charles De Young it is confidently as
serted by friends of J. NJ. KollOch that at
least dozen witnesses will support the testi-
mony of Clementshaw to the effect that De
Young did fire the first shot. The rumor is
given for what it is worth, but there is no
possible doubt that such evidence will
be offered and form part of the defense.
ARRESTED FOR PERJURY.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 29.-Clemetshaw, the
witness who testified before the coroners Jury
last evening that De Young fred the first shot
at Kallooh, was arrested this evening and
locked up on the charge of perjury.
HELD WITHOUT BAIL.
San FRANCISCO, April 29.-In the police court
| this afternoon ]. NJ. Kalloch had preliminary
examination on the charge of killing Charles
De Young. The prosecution offered the testi-
mony of eye witnesses of the shooting, the
| medical men who were in attendance and per-
formed the autopsy and the arresting officers.
| The defense offered no testimony and the
| prisoner was held without bail.

FORTY-sIXTH CONGRESS.
Second SESSION.
The Senate.

The Senate.
WASHINGTON, April 29.-Several petitions of
iron companies were presented asking the pas
sage of the Eaton tariff commission bill.
Bills were introduced and referred:
By Senator Teller-To grant titles to lands
patented by the United States.
BY Senator Ingalls-To facilitate the bust
ness of the treasury department.
The Joint resolution authorizing the Presi-
dent to call an international sanitary confer
ence at Washington was taken up and passed.
1t provides that the several powers having ju-
risdiction of ports likely to be infected with
yellow fever, be invited to send delegates for
the purpose of securing an
international system of notification as to
the actual sanitary condition of the ports and
places under Jurisdiction of such powers, and
vessels sailing therefrom.
The Senate then considered the calendar.
The pending question was on AllisOn's amend
ment to the bill establishing the retired list
for non-commissioned officers, namely, direct
ing the President to appoint two colored cadets
at large each year. After an embarrassing de-
bate the morning hour expired and the Indian
appropriation bill was taken up.
Senator Plumb offered an amendment re-
quiring bids for Indian supplies to be received
and opened, and contracts awarded, at some
suitable pOlnG IN bQ0 mississippi VI h16SOuli

Senator Coke offered an amendment author
izing the purchase of supplies manufactured at
Indian training schools whenever they can be
a1vantageously used in the Indian service.
Adopted.
The bill was then reported back to the Sem
ate the question being upon agreeing to the
amendments made in committee.
Senator Plumb demanded separate vote on
his amendment appropriating $5,O0O for seeds
and implements for the Cheyennes. After de-
bate the amendment was agreed to; yeas ~,
nays %.
Senator Ingalls, demanded a separate vote on
the amendment striking out the clause abolish
ing the Indian commission. The amendment
was agreed to; yeas 81, nays $50 the COM
mission is retained.
Senator Plumb demanded separate vote on
the amendment prescribing bids for supplies
shall be advertised for three instead of six
weeks. The amendment was agreed to. Other
amendments made in committee of the whole
were agreed to and the bill passed
The regular order being the Kellogg -SpoHord
resolution, was informally laid aside and
on motion of Senator Eaton the report OF
the conference committee on the immedi.
ate deficiency was taken up. 1t reduces the
amount appropriated as follows: for public
printing, $50, 1000; state. war and navy depart
ment building 1886. 500; extra clerk hire IN the
state department $1,000. Total $237, ZOO. The
report was agreed to. Adjourned.

TIE FRAUD ISSUE.

An anti-Tilden Democratic exchange OBJ
jects to the prominence given to the fraud
issue in the resolutions of the conventions
of the party thus far held. 1t regards these
resolutions as tacit endorsement of Mr..
Tilden's candidacy, and thinks they will
have large influence upon the Cincinnati
convention in determining its action. It is
very evident that the paper referred to is a
little over solioitous, and does not realize the
Importance of keeping before the people
the circumstances by which they were de-
frauded of their choice of President.
The pending Presidential campaign will
be fought largely upon the fraud issue, and
all the details of the Louisiana infamy will
be thoroughly exposed. No honest Repub-
lican now attempts to deny that Mr.. Hayes
occupies the Presidential chair as result of
fraud. 1t is a question whether Mr..
Hayes himself will deny it. 1t
is fortunate that the circumstances are still
fresh in the minds of the people. The entire
Democratic electoral ticket in Louisiana was
elected by good round majority. That was
the pivotal State upon which the election
turned. The returning board was in the
hands of gang of Republican scoundrels
who had previously shown their capacity for
all manner of dirty work for partisan ad-
vantage. They canvassed the votes and
found that the Hayes electors were defeated.
By advice of Sherman and other lights in
the party, who represented Mr.. Hayes inter-
est, they procured affdavits, many of them
forged and all of them perjured, testifying
to acts of intimidation practiced by the Dem
ocrats. On the strength of these false aft
davits, which were known to be false, the
returns from a score of y Demo-
cratic parishes were thrown out,
and majority manufactured for
the Hayes electors. It was regular bar
gain entered into between Mr.. Hayes conf
Dental advisers and these miscreants, and
duly ratified by Mr.. Hayes himself. Every
one of those who participated in the iniquity
has been rewarded for his work by MIR. Hayes
or Mr.. Sherman, and there are no less than
hundred of the rascals now drawing their
subsistence from the government. Each
member of the returning board has been al
lowed to choose the most lucrative offices in
the gift of the government in Louisiana,
while all the twisting statesmen were
given their pick of the foreign missions and
cabinet offices.
This fraud is without parallel in the his
tory of this or any other country. 1t cannot
be kept too prominently before the public.
It makes no difference whether Mr.. Tilden
is or is not the candidate of the party. The
outrage was perpetrated upon the country at
large and is therefore the public's concern.
Mr.. Tilden is simply an individual who was
aggrieyed by the fraud, but not more SO than
the four millions of Democratic voters who
were outraged. The issue is their issue, and
they will urge it in the pending campaign
with all the vigor Of which they are capable.

Tha Norther,n Pncitfc.

General Manager Sargent returned yesterday
from Bismarck. He reports that the contrac-
tors are rushing work all along the located line
beyond the Missouri and that track
laying is progressing at the rate of
a mile and quarter day. The engineers who
have been studying the important matter of
moking permanent crossing of the Missouri,
are now inclined to favor the project of tun-
neling instead of bridging. But further ex-
animation of the river bed and banks and fur
ther knowledge of the character of the clay or
sand through which the tunnel will have to be
built will be obtained before the final decision
is reached. Mr.. Sargent found that
the farmers OF northern Dakota had
seeded about half their wheat lands and that
they considered the opening of the growing
season as very favorable for wheat while the
delays they have had in seeding they think will
be compensated by their having longer har-
vest season than usual-the later sown wheat
not being likely to mature as early as that
soWn before the recent rains.

Sos to believe that the Edmunds delegates
will cast their votes at Chicago for the Maine
statesman in case of the withdrawal of the
Vermonter. A careful canvass of the prefer

The Republican conventions Of Arkansas

manner to vote for the ex-President on all
occasions when the opportunity offered. This

gates, and out of these he is morally certain
to secure the ninety-six necessary to secure
his nomination in June next.

Another. Northern Paoifn 1ailrond


If it was true, as said to have been lately
reported at Sioux City, that the st. Paul &
Manitoba company is backed by the Chicago &
Northwestern company, (Which would be equi-
valent to being backed by the whole Wander
bilt combination of railway and moneyed
interests, then the Crookston- Totten branch
now being constructed, might well be re-
garded as the beginning of new Northern
railroad to the Pacific. And we are not sure
but what it may be so regarded now, without
believing that the Manitoba company is in
fuenced byIanything more III n the foresight Of
its executive officers, who have
seen that north of the Northern Pacific
is very valuable country which will at an
early day need independent railway facilities
So far as the new line is yet located il is over
the rich plains of northern Dakota-through the
center of the new wheat belt. But beyond
DEVILS Lake, and directly west to the Rocky
Mountains, is a wide belt of the best country
of the extreme north. If the Crookston- Totten
road should develop into Pacific road. its line
will run north of the Missouri river. 1t would
have few or difficult river crossings. Il
would be shorter line than either the North
ern Pacific or Union Central Pacific. As the
mountains trend lower ut the north, it is pos
sible that favorable crossing could be found
without turning the road greatly from its direct
course. West of the mountains the way would
be nearly clear of difficulties to Puget Sound
Such line, besides having large local
traffic and being able to
compete for American transcontinental traffic.
would also be in the right latitude for sending
an important feeder to the Pacific coast in
British Columbia, and for drawing traffic from
Saskatchewan. Wait few years before you
say that the development of the Crookston
Totten branch into Pacific railway is thing
too improbable to be thought of. This is

The Genera, at The Front.

General Manager Merrill arrived here from
Milwaukee at 6 A NJ. yesterday, took an early
breakfast at the Merchants and Immediately
afterwards started for Ortonville, where he
probably arrived during the afternoon. As
his short stay gave no one an opportunity
to question him, railroad men here remained
in ignorance Of the object of the large move
ment of grading forces to Ortonville-the i'm
agined Importance of which is added to by Mr..
MerrilI's going there to direct his forces in
taking possession of the line selected for the
Hastings & Dakota extension. Under Mr..
Merrills management the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul company has become noted for los
ing no time after it has decided to move but
the rushing of SO large working force to Or
tonville, with the fact that the men are mostly
taken from other of the company's pending
works, indicates that Mr.. Merrill
and his company have some point to
grain or some danger to avert by putting dirt
beavers at once at work over a large portion of
the route selected for the Hastings q Dakota
extension. AS it is not yet known here whether
the graders are going out east or west of Big
Stone Lake, it is only surmised that the new
road is going northward, and that for some I'M
known reason it is desired by the Milwaukee
company to get ahead of the Manitoba COM
pany's graders and track layers either at
Browns Valley or somewhere in the vicinity of
old Fort Abercrombie. General Manager Hill
is not informed as to the purposes of the Mil
waukee company or as to the direction the
Hastings& Dakota extension will take but does
not anticipate a conflict for precedence or ter
ritory. But in railroad circles here
it is generally agreed that Mer-
rill means to get ahead
of somebody somewhere, or he wouldn't make
such rushing concentration of working
forces
