fever appeared, has been dismissed
from the navy by court-martial. He
had recently been honored by promo.

Seaton, superintendent of the CEN
sus, says that the compendium will
probably be ready for issue December
LIST. 1t will be vast improvement
upon the compendium of 1870, and
will contain many more figures and
tables, the statistics of mortality and
age, and treat of a number of new
subjects. The superintendent expects
to finish the work of compilation and
preparation within the present fiscal
year, and no additional appropriations
will be required.
The annual report of Fourth Audi
tor, Beardsley. favors the application
of civil service rules in all the depart
ments as now applied to the treasury
department. The report of Inspector
general of steam vessels, Dumont,
states that 354, 100000 passengers
were carried in the last fiscal year.
The number of accidents was al, and
as the result, 205 persons lost
their lives, of whom 56 were passen-
gers. The Inspector general renews
the recommendation that the rule re-
quiring boat and fire drill Cd lake, bay

In the Jeanette inquiry, Melville
said that while he and Collins were
bantering each other, Collins took Of
fence at Melville's retort, but the
affair was afterwards smoothed over.
Collins subsequently complained to
belong that Melville hurt his feel
ings by singing Irish songs and max
ing Irish jokes. At belongs sug-
gestion the witness desisted thereafter
from such songs and jokes in Collins
presence. The witness told Collins
that there was no occasion to COM
plain to the captain, and his course
was unmanly. The witness afterwards
had no intercourse with Collins, save
as official relations required. Witness
remembered no reason for giving any
order to bring Danenhower back to
camp dead or alive, but would not
have hesitated to give such an Older if
he had believed it necessary. The
president of the court asked if such
an order had been produced or offered
in evidence. The judge advocate re-
piled in the negative. The witness
said he had given up all the letters
found on Collins. The crucifix found
on Collins was buried with the body,
as the witness thought it might be
part of Collins religion. Witness
stated that he was not present when
the bodies were searched by Bartlett
and Ninderman.

Walter Barney, boy of IA years, and
son of Mart Barney of Swanton, was
arrested Saturday night by Officer R..
D. Marvin, charged with the recent
burglary. He has confessed to break
ing into the store of H. G. Barnes,

store about two weeks ago. 1t is sus-
pected that the boy was engaged in
the numerous other burglaries that
have taken place here recently. both
the railroad depots, and Fletcher Tar
ble's residence having been entered.
The boy maintains that he was alone
in the work; but it is expected that
others will he implicated, as the oili-
GERS are working up suspicious clews.
The affair has created quite a sensa-
ton as the boys parents are highly
respectable, and much sympathy is
expressed for them.
