imburse him for his great expenses incurred
in the vindication of his character and conduct
as an officer and soldier from the disgrace and
obliquy now shown TO have been unjustly cast
upon him by the Government.
II Is hard to conceive Of more insolont as
sault upon the action of the commission which
tried General Porter than this clause of Mr..
Bragg's bill, and the Republicans would be
lost to all sense of justice II they did not treat
this assumption of the committee as direct
insult, justifying tlom in handling General
Porter and his case with that severity which
the facts in the case amply warrant.
Tho Senate subcommittee having General
Portor's case in charge also met on Saturday
and agreed substantially TO report the bill
adopted by the House Committee. Their ac-
tion will be reported to the full committee on
Tuesday. the programme being to Introduce
the two bills multaneously in both Houses.
In other words the friends of General
Porter are endeavoring to make his case II par.
tisan question and to create enthusiasm in his
behalf so as to quiet any division in the Dem
ocratic ranks.

FR1NK LESLTE'S WIZ.
Prospective Harvest for the Lawye


NEW York, January 1S.-rhere is every
prospect of long and bitter litigation over the
will of the late Frank Leslie. The deceased
bequeathed most of his estate to his wife, in
Guiding especially the trademark Frank
Leslie"
His eldest son will contest the giving away
of this name on the grounds that he had been
baptized in later years by that name, and that
his fathers name was not Frank Leslie, but
Henry Carter. In addition to the contest of
the will and the other suits, counsel for the
Leslie boys have served notice on Isaac w.
Eugland, assignee of Frank Leslie that they
will not permit the use of the name Frank
Leslie on any of the publications of the late
Frank Leslie for tho reason that his eldest son
now rightfully assumes that title. When the
citations for the probate Of the will are return.
able the contestants will file an extensive bill
Of objections. Counsel decline to outline the
basis of their objections to the probate, but
there is little doubt that a charge of undue in.
lluonce on the part of the present Mrs. Leslie
will be part Of tho contest. Mr. Lesie's first
wilo, from whom he was divorced, aud who is
now living, will be a witness in the case. Sho
is in Colorado.

THE STAR-SERTICE INQUIRY.
General Brady Before tho Committee ON A p-
prOpriatiOna.

General Brady spent Saturday morning bo-
fore the subcommittee Of tho House Commit.
tee on Appropriations engaged in the Star
Service" inquiry. Whatever hopes the COM
mitteemen entertained Of eliciting develop
ments damaging TO General Brady, they were
sadly disappointed in them, for all that was
simple and plain statement to the effect that
deficiency appropriation was necessary to
maintain the Star Service" in its present
efficiency; that the condition Of affairs had
been brought about by the unusual demands
for increased services ; that he had extended
the service, implicitly relying upon Congress
to sustain him. and that the deficiency OF ST.
100000 was prospective and not actual.
He stated that the Star Service could be
run to tho end OF the year, Keeping intact
the 300 new routes and all others where
the cost of expedition has not exceeded 5000,
and cutting down all others TO the point ut
which increased pay for expedition was begun
for the sum of $64lG,5l0 for the entire year.
which would still necessitato deficiency Sp.
preparation of $5l65l0, This reduction, how
ever, would seriously cripple the service
throughout the West, Louisiana and Texas.
lie emphatically reiterated his former state
ment that he had not exceeded tho authority
aud discretion vested in him by law, and
was perfectly confident Congress would sus.
tain him. When General Brady was eX.

Tho Ute Inyestigntion.

The House Committee on Indian Affairs had
an exceedingly interesting session on Satur-
day, during which there was some very plain
talk in reference to tho management Of the
Indian Bureau by Mr.. Leeds, late chief clerk
of that office. Newspaper men We're excluded
from tho committee meeting, but few facts
in relation to Mr. Leeds testimony have
leaked out. He was asked in relation to the
causes of the Ute outbreak and gave it as his
Judgment that it WAS on account of the policy
adopted by Commissioner Hayt, forbidding
the sale of arms Mt the agency; in tho failure
of tho Indian Bureau to keep faith with the
indians us to the delivery OF supplies and pay
ment of annuities; their being coerced
into changing reservation of $4,000 900
acres for a 100000 tract against their protest
ana their arbitrary management generally.
The structures upon Commissioner Hayt.
who was present with his counsel, were exceed.
ugly severe. When asked IL he was friendly
to tho Commissioner lie said that when ho re.
signed and left tho Department he had written
u lottor to Secretary Schurs saying that he
thought Mr.. Hayt meant to be honest, but sew
eral things had trdnspired since to convince
him that his judgment was at fault, aud That
ho was rascal who deserved the peni

Titz.John Porter,s Case.

The House Committee on Military Affairs
on saturday adopted the report of the sub
committee OF that body, to which was referred
the Fitz.John Porter case. The bill prepared
by Representative Bragg, completely oxOrerat-
ing General Porter and restoring him to tho
Army with the rank Of Colonel and allowing
him $40, 900 in lieu of the pay duo him from
tho time of his dismissal up to the date of his
restoration, was adopted by the majority.
Tho Republicans disagree with the majority,
and will present a substitute prepared by
General MoCOok, of New York, which simply
provides for remission of that portion Of Gen
oral Porters sentence which destroys his
citizenship aud dsqualiaes him from holding
any office Of trust or honor under the United
States Government, The minority will, with
General McCook's bill, present report declar-
ing the justice Of General Portors sentence at
the time it was passed, aud the majority will
embody the report of the Schofeld court of
inquiry as the basis Of their action.
The bill Of General Bragg seems TO have
been framed In a spirit Of bunoombo, and Is
likely to got pretty roughly handled when 1t
comes to the House, as the section which pro,
vidcs for paying him the $4,000 stipulates
that 1t Ia awarded him by the Government as
a measure of amend in a0knOwledgm Of the
