A BOLD ROBBERY
In a Washington street saloon,

A fisherman named J. G. Wilson, COM
planned to the police yesterday that he had
been robbed at Lindeman's saloon, corner
Centre alley and Washington street, of
twenty-five dollars. Captain O'Haver
Investigated the affair and arrested Sam
German, whom he found asleep in a room
over the saloon. About five dollars in
money were found in his pockets. The
case came up for hearing to-day
before the police court and the
testimony of several witnesses conclu-
sively proved the guilt of German, be-
sides throwing a considerable shadow over
the reputation of Lindeman's house. Oae
witness declared he saw German turn
Wilson's pockets inside out and transfer
his money to his own pockets, and that
afterward he went to the bar and boldly
threw down a silver piece; called for
drinks and said he didn't care about such a
small matter as robbing a mar Of a few
dollars. The barkeeper took the money
rendered him and returned the proper
change. Lindeman, who sat out.
side, was informed of the affair
by witness but took no measures to
right the wrong. To others Lindeman
stated that German was an ~eK-convict and
a thief, but when called N to-day declared
the fellow vas an honest, Woodworking
a President MADDEN took occasion to
administer a scathing rebuke to Linde-
man, whom he warned that he would cer-
tainly arrest if another complaint Of
thieyery was added to the numerous ones
already made against his house, German
was bound over.

ize the Public Printer to purchase inks, rollers,
lubricaing oils, tapes, and press blankets without
previous advertisement Cbe reason for the latter
being the necessity of having these articles Of the
best quality in order TO make good work. were re-
ported and passed.
Mr.. Cockrcll called up the House bill to relieve
certain soldiers of the late war from the charge of
dcsertion.
The practical effect OF the bill as developed by
the discussion which followed was stated as fol-
lows The first section contemplatcs the case OF q
soldier who served during the war, but failed,
through ill-health or other cause, to be present
when his regiment was mustered out, and removes
the effect of mere technical desertion. The Sec
ond section restricts the bill to those who did not
attempt to desert and who after their assumed
desertion, returned to their commands, and allows
to all such, If dead to their heirs, the pay and
bounty withheld on account of tho charge OF de-
sertion or of absence without leave. The last Sec
ton exempts from the benefits of the bill those
who served in the army period Of less than
twelve months, and who received local bounty
The details of the measure were discussed by
Messrs. Cockrell, HARRISON, Plumb, ,Hoar, Platt
aud Blair, when Mr.. Morrill, moved TO proceed
with the tax bill, and Mr.. Hale supplemented this
with motion to take up the naval appropriation
bill. A protracted rambling debate followed
upon the order Of business,
finished business of the morning hour hereafter,
and Mr. Morrills motion to lay aside all pending
orders to take up the tax bill prevailed-yeas So,
nays 90
Mr.. Farley moved to proceed with the naval ap-
propriation bill.
Mr.. Farley's motion was rejected on a division
16 to 39-and the tax bill was then further dis
cussed.
The pending amendment was TO strike out the
provision repeating the taxes on bank capital and
deposits, bank checks, drafts, &c. A long debate
ensued.
Mr.. salisbury moved an amendment repeating
the tax OH bank capital and retaining that on
deposits. Negatived, 5-45. The Affirmative vote
consisted Of Messrs. George, German, salisbury,
Vance, aud Williams.
The Senate committee amendment to the first
section us amended by a reduction OF the tax on
tobacco was then agreed to-39 to g-and the
question recurred on the remainder of the section
The portion adopted fixes tho tax on manufac-
tured tobacco after January l. 1885, at IL cents per
pound and provides that the repeal Of the taxes
on the capital and deposits of banks and bankers
shall affect such taxes are now due ana puya-
BILE, and that the repeal of the stamp tax on bank
checks, drafts, orders and vouchers shall not take
effect until october next. Pending an adjourn
ment, the bill went over until to-day without
further action.
The Senate then (at o'clock) adjourned until
to-day.

The new Republican State committee
of Illinois has reelected the faithful and
untiring chairman and secretary of the
preceding committee, Messrs. Jones and
Shepard, who made themselves conspicu-
Gus by honorable party service in the
campaign of 1880. They are the trusted
friends of General Logan, and their Sc
lection is really vote of renewed con-
tidence in him. Illinois will this year
choose United States Senator. In no
State in the Union have there been
tiercer struggles for the Senatorship than
in Illinois. AS Stephen A. Douglas was
the master-spirit in the politics of
that State before the war, and mighty
power for the Union after war came, so
John A. Logan, since the war, has been
the central political figure in that great
and powerful State. A Democrat when
Democrats were patriots, he burned with
indignationgwhen a faction of his party
assailed the flag, and was prompt in the
field as a soldier of the Union. At the
end of the war, with Maior-General's
stars upon his shoulders honestly won,
and place in the hearts of the soldiers
second to none, he was honored by sue
cessive elections to the House-once
by majority of $4,000 as men,
ber from the State at large-and
finally promoted to the Senate. De-
feated for reelection by treachery
within the party, he was two years after
ward again elected to the seat he now
honors. If he chose to put forth his
hand, no one can doubt that he would
exercise a controlling influence in the
election of successor to Judge Davis.
That he does not lack in one of the
highest qualities of leadership is shown
by his refusal to so interfere. He says it
is for Illinois Republicans to decide who
shall be his colleague, and that if he has
any choice among the aspirants no one
shall know it until Senator shall have
been elected. With all the acknowl-
edged power of John Logan in Illinois
there is no evidence of its exercise by
him during the present year, and only
the election of his staunch friends as
officers of the State Committee brought
to our attention the fact of the continued
confidence in which he is held by the
party. When the Republicans need his
voice against the common enemy he will
be there as usual There is no factional
disturbance in Illinois, and an old fash
ioned Republican victory is assured.
