CHICAGO, Oct. 6.-United States commits
sioner of railroads, VIM. II. Armstrong
and family arrived yesterday, in this city,
in the palatial private car Sacramento, di-
rect from an examination of the Union
and Central Pacific and both sections of
the Northern Pacific railroads. The party
came from st. Paul over the Chicago, Mil.
& st. Paul road, after having Just made
an examination of the eastern portion of
the Northern Pacific. At 9:15 a. m. the
party visited the city of Pullman, and up
on their return, on special invitation, paid
q visit to the exposition. At 5:15 the party
left over the Lake Shore, for Cleveland.
Gen. Armstrong left Washington in July
to make an official examination of the
Union, Central & Northern Pacific rail-
ways. The general proceeded directly
over the lines of the two former, and found
them in excellent condition. The lines
were smooth, well ballasted, and supplied
with first class equipments. On the west
ern section of the Northern Pacific Gen.
Armstrong said he had most interesting
trip. He went over the entire road from
Portland to the scene of track laying, a
distance of $50 miles. The road was
being built in an excellent
manner. the ballasting being so
perfect that fast trains could even now
be run the whole length of the line. The
track was being put down at the rate of
about two miles per day, the labor being
principally performed by Chinese. At
Tacoma there is a splendid harbor, and
everything seemed especially favorably for
the new wtranscontinental route.
The country through which the road
passes was one of wonderful resources.
both from mineral and an agricultural
poin of view. Probably no strip of $50
miles in the world affords such splendid
showing in the way of diversified
resources. The road runs through
some of the finest agricultural
country in the world, while in places along
the Columbia river and on the Pen 'dOreille
division, there was some of the heaviest
forests Of. pine and fir to be seen any
where. On the eastern division, the re-
sources of the Yellowstone were especially
remarkable; At Bismarck there was one
of the finest iron bridges in the land.
Three years mad been spent in it's erection,
it being especially difficult to secure firm
foundations for the piers, owing to the un-
substantial nature of the river bottom,
which is here entirely composed of the
shifting clay from the Bad Lands, only
about fifty miles west from Bismarck. The
General was of the opinion that upon the
completion of the road it would command
an abundant business. There would be a
large freightage from interior points to
the Pacific to seek water transportation
and very large eastern business also.
Both sections of the road we've in excellent
condition. and credit to the country and
to the company that built it.

THE STUDDART AFFAIR.

Your committee, instructed to examine
into the causes relative to the escape of 1.
F. A. Studdart, charged with forgery, re-
prot: That while his arrest was within the
possibilities, its miscarriage SCENE to be in
measure resultant either from incompe-
tency OF disobedience, or unwilling
ness of those charged by
law with that duty, or, as plead
ed by one of them, that he could not afford
to incur any unusual expense, because, if
not approved, he would have to paw it him
self. This is very unfortunate condition
of affairs and plainly needs remedy. It
will not subserve any public interest to
cite names in this connection, nor for this
OF any after grand jury to endeavor to
maintain the secrecy of their proceedings
while the local press publish them with
such accuracy as to almost compel the
conclusion thaa the subordinate officials of
the court are the source of the newspapers
information. If there are no existing laws
that provide punishment for publishing
such information as will aid criminal to
make good his escape and thereby defeat
the ends of justice, then it wonld seem that
such legislation should be had as would eff
fectually compel their silence, when such
silence was necessary for the best interests
of law and order. It does not appear Oh
investigation that it is now or ever likely
to be an easy matter to fix the actual re-
sponsibility of the sources of the newspa-
pers' information, nor would.it be materi-
al, if the fact of publication of the grand
jury's proceedings were in itself an indict-
able offense. In addition to newspaper
publicity may be mentioned the easy ac-
cessibility of the court records, tampering
with witnesses and possible eaves-drop-
ping. The last named, however, could be
readily and inexpensively remedied. These,
though avenues of disclosures, and to be
regretted and if possible remedied, are Of
but little moment compared with the rude
defiance by the local press of the spirit, il
not the letter Of the law.

RECORDS AND ACCOUNTS.

ST. PAUL, Oct. 5, 1882.
Hon. Maurice Auerbach. Foreman of the Grand
Jury.
Sir: Your committee on public affairs
and accounts do respectfully report:
They have visited the sheriff's Office and
after examining the books of accounts
kept by him, the said officer, found them
to be as prescribed by law, and your COM
mittee has reason to believe said account
and books to be correct.
We next called at the Office of the coun-
ty treasurer, and found the books and ac-
counts apparently all right. The business
of this Office has of late increased very
much and the room now occupied is not
sufficient Your committee recommend
an increased compensation to his present
salary, which is largely absorbed in the
payment of salaries necessary for the
efficient performance of the duties of
the Office.
The Office of county auditor is admira
bly, conducted, but here too it appears that
more room is necessary to enable the Off
Ger to keep public documents in proper
order, and we most heartily recommend
an increased compensation of this officer,
and because, as is the case of the treas
urer, the salary is largely absorbed in the
payment OF clerk n1re.
The Office of clerk of court is in appar-
ent good order, but like the rest has suf-
fered for room, and your committee would
most earnestly suggest the necessity of
more facility to protect valuable public
documents.
The Office of the abstract clerk was duly
visited and the records pertaining thereto
examined and approved. It would appear
10 hot Of
allowed by law to this official must result
in either closing up the Office or such i'm
perfect service as to be of little use to the
public. This conclusion is arrived at by
the fact that the amount paid out for cler-
ical service exceeds the salary allowed by
law several hundred dollars.
In the register of deeds Office we would
recommend that proper person be sta
toned in the vault to guard the records,
which are daily handled by large num-
ber of persons known and unknown to the
register.
The Offices of
CITY TREASURER
and others were visited, and your commit
tee has no criticism to make of the con-
duct of these offices, as they are apparently
well conducted as far as the character of
tno ouAuluSS III WHICH Lne business Is done
will admit.
The rapid growth Of our city and county
causes the duties of our public officers to
become more and more voluminous. All
county and city officers should therefore
receive a liberal salary for their services,
such salary as the character and the re-
sponsibility of the Office demands and
justifes, and all fees as now charged and
collected by the Office, be paid into the
tr easury of the county or city.
This method has long since been adopted
by all large counties and cities, and your

POOR IARM.

POOH HARM.
To the grand jury of the county of
Ramsey: The undersigned, pursuant to
your order, proceeded to the poor farm
this morning to examine and report to
you, but we were unable to find the super
intendent of the farm, who was absent
from the city, or any other person who
could furnish the facts upon which to base
report. We ascertained, however, from
4he best information accessible, that there
36 inmates of the poor house who uniform
ly spoke highly of their good treatment
The produce raised on the farm this year
was about as follows: From 60 acres of
wheat, 1,OS1 bushels No. 1; from ~ acres
of oats, LOO bushels; from 20 acres of
of corn, 700 bushels; from II
acres Of potatoes, 1000 bushels; wild hay
for the use of the farm from 25
acres, and about thirteen hogs, which are
estimated to average, when killed, 200
pounds each. There are on the place thir-
ty. stock hogs, eight COWS, one bull, four
horses, and one sheep. Two hands are
employed the year around at $40 to $25
per month, and one extra hand to look af-
ter some insane prisoners, for whom it
was alleged there was no room in st. Pc
ter. Two persons are employed in the
kitchen at cost of about $500, and the
salary of the superintendent was said to
be $500. We were desirous of finding
some account of the receipts and expendi-
lures of the farm, to ascertain if it was
self-sustaining, but found no one who
could give us any information.
We report the above as the best we could
do under the circumstances. We reco m
mend that all insane persons on the poor
farm be sent to the insane asylum, and all
supernumary help employed to take care
of insane persons be discharged, as there
undoubtedly now plenty of room at the
insane asylum to accommodate all unfor-
tunates of this class.
