GARFIEED'S AVENGER.

Severe Sentence Of Sergeant Mason for
Attempting to Shoot the Assassin
Guiteau.
New YORK, March IL Gen. Hancock ap-
proves and promulgates In general order the
sentence of Sergeant John A. Mason, who at.
tempted to shoot Guiteau. He Is condemned
by court martial to be dishonorably discharged
from the army, with the loss OF all wages and
allowances, and be confined at hard labor In q
penitentiary for eight years. and the peRiten
tiary at Albany is designated as the place. The
sentence is subject 10 the approval OF the Sec
rotary of war.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE sentence of
court martial upon Sergeant Mason for shoot
ing Guiteau was communicated to Mason this
afternoon. He received it with apparent in
difference. Already petitions have been pre-
pared asking pardon from the president.
Numerous signatures were obtained to one
this evening. One ground for asking it is
there is reason 10 believe Mason is insane.
The secretary of war telegraphs Gen. Han.
cock, approving the order in Sergeant Mason's
case, providing for Mason's imprison ment in
the penitentiary at Albany.
CINCINNATI, March ia petition for pre-
sentation to President Arthur, for the pardon
of Sergeant Mason, has been circulated to-
day, and is receiving a large number of signa-
lures of prominent business men. The grouncs
presented for executive clemency are the ex-
element under which the shooting was done
and that punishment enough has been suffered
for the demands of military discipline.

CHICAGO, March 1l,--Wheat to-day was
In perpetual fever, but prices continued
steadily advancing, and the highest price since
early last fall was recorded about noon. The
effect of the uew margin rule did not seem to
be in accord with the expressed belief on the
subject. 1t was generally regarded as bear
mover, but bulls are proftlng by it also. Sew
eral settlements were made to-day at 81 "a, the
price fixed by the clique. and the settling
price will probably be moved up few pegs
on Monday. The manipulators express the
belief that they will sell grain yet at $3.50,
and at present the outlook Is that they Will be
able to do so If they choose. The enhanced
values fail to call in receipts, and SO far as the
movement of wheat is concerned the market is
at standstill The clique appear to have an
endless purse, and readily meet all demands
for margins. The timfdity of operators who
fear to sell short will alone prevent the cor
ner from proving successful. New trade az
vanced full Sc above yesterdays close on call,
and closed at 3X above the close on change.
Nav and deferred futures were active, May
was u higher and the others 1@11Sc higher,
but reacted little The final close, however,
was C higher for May and June and &c for
July. Sales, 1.3l@1.34 March; 1.5l@1 .S5
April; 1.24H@l.a5X May and l.2OK @1.SSA

Corn was in good speculative request, and
there was a fair business, prices sympathizlng
with wheat, although there were. no signs
of unusual manipulation. The advance for
the day was 1s@xc, but the extreme figures
were not maintained. Sales were 6O@6Ox c

Oats were shade better early but closed

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE following is
related by prominent ex-Union general as q
piece OF the unwritten history in connection
with the revival OF the R9secrans- Garfield
letters. 1t bring to the surface hitherto for
gotten fact which will tend to strengthen the
we'll known friendship and affection which ex-
l.ted between the two. It will be remembered
that Garfield was delegate from Ohio In 1854
In the Baltimore convention and nominated
President Lincoln for his second term. After
Hncoin had been nominated Garfield tele-
graphed to Rosecrans, then in st. Louis,
as follows: "Vice presidency going
begging. VIII you accept" Gen. Rosen-
Grams, after consultation with well-known
gentleman now in Washington, consented and
sent an answer 10 Gen. Garfield, which 1t is
said was suppressed by Stanton in the war de-
partment, through whose hands all kilograms
at that time went. AS a consequence Andrew
johnson received nomination which General
Rosencrans would uuquestionably have Sc
cured, and the following events OF Lincoln's
death would have placed him In the presiden-
tial chair which subsequently was filled by
Johnson. The system of esponege in the
war department at that time brought with it
a train of disasters which followed under the
johnson regime and which might happily
have been aVerted by placing Gen. Garfleld's
riend In the presidential chair.

THE MORMON CRISIS.

Last Days of Mormon Legislation in Utah
The Saints Leave the Halls Of the Leg
isIature Never to Return.
SALT LAKE, March 1.-THE legislature ad-
iourned sine die last evening. In the closing
speeches there was tacit recognition of the
fact that the day of polygamousl legislation was
now forever past, and their final adieu to the
halls where for twenty five sessions they had
upheld the standard of theocracy legally, were
not without certain emotion and pathos.
Down to the passage by the senate of the Ed
munds bill the legislature was disposed to
treat lightly all attempts at interference either
by congress or by the governor. Since that
they have become aware that a crisis In their
history is upon them. The younger and
homogeneous element would probably have
met il by concession, if possible. The older
and polygamous element has had no thought
save 10 stand on what the deem their rights,
whatever the consequences.
In the address in reply to part Of the COVER
nor's message, which they resented In the me-
mortal to congress against legislation, and the
calling OF state convention 10 org.nize Utah
as a state and apply for admission iHiO the
Union the country has their ultiEiatum as
the last chance polygamy had to strike It's
colors. There is nothing left but for congress
to move Immediately upon its works. The
legislation of the session was uuim DOrtant.
Both sides agree that the governor exercised
HE absolute veto power with good Judgment.
In almost every instance his suggestions were
adopted and his approval thus secured.
On one point, the governor and legislature
could not agree, however, the governor held
it to tie his duty nader the United States
statute, to nominate certain territorial
executive officers whom the legislature as.
sumes to elect under territorial law passed
when Brigham Young was governor. The
Legislature refused to concede The power, de-
claring that there were no vacancies III such
Offices. The governor and the legislature,
no wever, parted with mutual exchange of
commitments

MILWAUKEE, March 1.-THE sensational
matter telegraphed from here at late hour
last night of the arrest at Waukesha Of bank
robbers, supposed to be part of Jesse James
gang, was huge canard, and it has proved
the sensation of the day. The Sentinel has
known for sometime past that the Republican,
WAS surreptiously obtaining a copy of the
farmers midnight edition, and stealing its
special dispatches. Last night d trap was set.
4 sensational special was written in the Serti-
mel office, purporting to have been sent from
Waukesha, detailing the arrest of notorious
gang Of bank robbers at that
place, and it was printed in a
dozen copies of the midnight edition of
the Sentinel and then suppressed. One of
these copies was stolen by the Republican. as
usual, and the bogus special flched and re.
produced it in its entirety, under flaming
head lines as special to the Republican. The
bogus dispatch was also wired to st. Paul,
Chicago, Cincinnati, and other cities as a
special, and was sent off by associated press
agent. The exposure of the hoax followed in
the afternoon papers. The matter is the talk
of the town.

Gratis cannot be depended upon to oppose the

Democratic members have been in consulta.
ton with the view OF calling another caucue
to procure change in the programme of op-
position, go as to suggest modification Of the
proposed amendment instead Of unconstitu-
tional opposition to them. 1t is evidentt0 all
that under the present rules scarcely any bill
calling for expenditure of money. outside OF
the regular appropriation bills, will stand any
show of passing. Members interested IN new
public buildings and the improvement OF the
Mississippi river are very lOath to go home
without something being done for their local
measures. Messrs. Robson and Rood are
very confident that the proposed amendments
will be adopted when their interest are more
fully understood.

The Attack o., Garfield.

The following is the letter in the Washing
ton Post supposed to have been written by
ChauncY l. FilleY:
To the Editor of the Post: l read with great
interest the Garfield Chase letter in your pa
per to day. will take an oath it is genuine
for | saw the original in Mr.. Chase's house
in 1867, when he resided on the corner Of
Sixth and Streets. What became of it and
how it turns up now do not know. To one
who knew Garfield well this letter is no sur
prise. He was treacherous, cowardly, o
hypacrltical man, selfish to the extreme, and
not Caring what happened so 1t did not happen
to himself. Gen. Rosecranz was and Is worth
Thousand Garfi.lds. When the fl citing that
Garfield was craving for came on he took good
care to keep out of danger.
1t is true, az the New Yoik Tribune pub
lished some time ago, that at Cbickamauga
he was behind q tree, but it is not true that a
white dove lit in the tree above him, for there
are no white doves In that part of the world
and never have been. There are q few domes-
tic pigeons, but they are not IN the habit OF
lighting in trees, or Of coming near the roar
OF battle.
It is high time for The sake of our national
common sense, the truth of history, and just
ice alike to the living and the dead that all
Tho gush over Garfield should end. Millions
of better men have lived and died. The writer

like spanked baby, and water was in his eyes.
He was nothing but professional office seek
er aud professional politician, a failure as a
preacher and a lawyer. He learned to string
WORDS together as child does beads, and that
was his stock in trade.
No one can point to all original thought he
ever uttered.
He betrayed John Sherman at Chicago as
treacLerously az Brutus did Cesar OF Judas
did Christ. While making his speech nornl-
mating Sherman twice,a clear, cultivated voice
from the gallery yelled out: "NOmi-
nate Garfield" | have 1t upon

ring had concocted, long before the conven-
ton met.
No one wants to do injustice to dead men,
but they are worth no more than living ones,
and living or dead the reputation of braye,
patriotic and useful soldier Ike Gen. Rose.
Grams should not suffer In the eyes or thoughts
Of our people by the words of such man as
Garfield, who knew nothing of the science OF
war, and who was such "jack at all trades"
he knew little of anything anyone need covet.

CHICAGO. March 11.-Mayor Harrison writes
to the Times that in 1854, being invited by
prominent gentlemen of this city TO be present
at private reception in honor of Gen. Gar
field, he was struck by the high praise ac-
corded by Gen. Garfield to Gen. Rosecrans
From conversation he had with Garfield lie
found that he regarded Rosecrans as one of the
most skillful of generals and one OF the most
worthy of men. His ommendation was earn
est, and left 10 ground for doubts as to its
sincerity. The mayor intimates that be re-

Garfield, and attacking Roeecrans as forgery.
