slstently 10 make Kansas free State. In 1861

OF duty, and I'm promoting the pleasure OF

Mr.. Augustus II. Voss, formerly q men,
ber of the detective corps, aud who was in
dicted yesterday on the charge of COM
pounding felony, came into court this
morning and gave bail in the sum of 81 900
for his appearance. A popularity about
this indictment is the fact of it being re-
turned without the name of single wit
ness upon it, but it is pretty well known
that the witnesses are James Skivington
and John Henry Murphy, both well-known
bunko men. OF all the indictments that
have been brought in this is conceded to be
the weakest and most trihing of the lot.
