Senator Vim. Pitt. Kellogg Indicted
in Washington.

Washington Special: Ex-senator Will
liam Pitt Kellogg was quite confident up
to Wednesday afternoon that none of the
persentn,ents made against him by the
grand jury OF the district a few weeks ago
would ever bear fruit in indictments.
Nevertheless, the grand jnryy-eame into
our tins atterrS3M- and reported an in
dictnleiat against Kellogg and another against
fofady. Kello e is charged with having re-
celved five instalments of 81, 500 each in
awfal money as a consideration for using
bis influence, while in the United States
senate, with Brady, to secure the
expedition OF certain routes,
he following is a statement of what the gov
ernment's counsels believe to be the facts in
he case:
Price had attempted without succ IS to
get an allowance for an expedition in con-
nection with these two routes. He then took
he papers to Kellogg and promised to give
BIN $40, 900 if he would procure expedition
OF the routes. Kellogg told him to leave
the papers ami to call in two days. At the
appointed time he returned and kellogg
told him it was all right; that expedition
would be gra ted. Price thereupon sat
dow. and drew five drafts upon the auditor
Of the treasury tor a total of $4,000,
against his pay for service ON the San An
manning $1,000 he gave a note, in
dorsed by another mail contractor which
was paid at maturity. The drafts were to
be paid on April 10. July IA, Oct. 18, 1880,
and Jan. Il, and April 81, 1881. Kellogg
gave him to Walsh, and requested him to
collect them, pay him (kellogg). $1,000 Tor
zach draft, ard credit Brady, who owed
money to Walsh, with the same amount.
Walsh collected the drafts as they matured,
and; upon the collection of each draft, paid
81, 500.

to the interest of every citizen Ct Dakota to jeal-
ously scrutinize any MEASURE calculated to injure
or check immigration in any way or manner: tina,
the public defamation ard scanda!izing of any Of
our citizens by the public press is calculated tc

that We are in favor of giving the said commission

Cooper Institute, New York, is n fine
and enduring monument to the memory
Of the latoQK~ssr Cooper. Thousands
now living and yet to come will always
bear in grateful remembrance the name
of the benefactor who helped them to
educate themselves and lay the founda-
ton of their success and happiness.
Early in life Mr.. Cooper felt the difficult
ties that young people meet in seeking
education in art and science. He de-
termined to aid those who should come
after him by placing within the reach of
any one in his native city the mean of
getting such education as each person
might nost need. The building for the
Cooper union was begun in 1855, on its
present site at the junction Of Third and
Fourth avenues and Eighth street. The
Inrst cost amounting to more than $780,
0J0-and all the expenses of the Union,
have been betrayed by Mr.. Cooper.
The plan of the Union is based largely
upon the working of the Polytechnic
school of Paris. There are free schools
for instruction in the aesthetic and in
\ dustrtal arts and in scientific depart
0ents beyond the teaching given in the
tic schools. There are regular
c~oufses~ef lectures on subjects of art,
science, political and social economy.
