Gen. Crooks Return.

Gen. Crook has successfully
routed the Apaches, capturing 1888
prisoners, including number Of
prominent chiefs, together with a
lot of plumber which they hare
gathered in their raids. Its value
is estimated at upwards Of $4,000
Although the command had hard
campaign they have come out of it
without the loss Of a single man.
After the battle General Crook
retraced his march to the American
side and is now safely in camp at
Silver Creek awaiting orders from
the War Department.
AS an illustration of Crook s
modesty and total absence of fuss
and feathers in his makeup, it may
be stated that, although the fight
aud capture occurred the 18th of
last month, he laisurely retraced
his steps to Camp Supply, at Silver
Creek, not sending courier ahead
to signal his movements. The
first inti'nation had of Crooks
return was the arrival CT a lieuten-
ant at Col. Blddles headquarters at
s A. NJ. Sunday, June 18Th, with
dispatches for Camp Bowie, the
nearest. army telegraph station.
Upon making inquiry for General
Crook, who was supposed to be a
hundred miles in the Sierra Madres,
one can imagine the surprise that
awaited the camp when informed
that Crook was only two hours be-
hind with the captured Apaches.
About 10 o'clock Uen. Crook rode
in with his escort, and greeted Col.
Biddle with "A nice morning,
Colonel,' and straightway struck
out for washbasin, which he had
spied, and was soon engaged in per.
forming his additions, after which
he threw himself into IL camp stool
aud engaged in conversation about
his campaign in an oH:.hand way
as if hunting the cruelest and ferc-
est foe on the continent in the
widest and most inaccessible coun-
try to be found was matter of
everyday occurrence. A lieuten-
ant was the Only person injured in
Crooks command, and he but
slightly. Despite criticism Of some
wise newspaper men and croak-
ers and regardless of diplomatic
red tape the general has fully re-
deemed his reputation as an Indian
hunter and terminated a successful
campaign.

Quite a number of counties have
already elected their delegates to
the Republican state convent ion
which will convene in St. Paul one
week from to-day. All the dele
gates 50 far elected are unanimous
and enthusiastic for Gov. Hubbard s
denomination, and when the con-
vention meets every delegate will
be found in the Hubbard column.
This is as it should be. Gov. Hub
bard has made an able executive
and his every duty has been con-
scientiously discharged. He may
have made mistakes, but no ex-
ecutive has been more earnest IN
behalf of the peoples welfare.

It is reported that Queen Victor.

failing health and inability to per-
form the duties incident to govern

London by the ambassador Of a great
power to his sovereign recently that
the abdication of the Queen of

probably occur very soon. The
breakdown in her health has been
followed by melancholy of the most
pronounced type. It seems not to

Gus charges.
Justice Weeps.

On Thursday. June 14th, the
jury in the star.route case returned
a verdict Of not guilty as to the rob-
bers Brady, Dorsey 8 Co. The YER
dict was q surprise, as it was gen
orally believed that the jury would
not be able to agree on verdict in
case in which so much had been
alleged on both sides. The acquit,
ted star-routers and their friends
were wild with joy, and for a few
minutes after the verdict was an
nounced the nose and confusion in
the court room was so great as to
render orderly proceedings impos.
sible, and Judge Wylie sat dignified
but apparently dazed by the an
nouncement. Dorsey set 'em up"
to the boys, his wife, after having
yelled herself hoarse, fell to kissing,
Ingersoll cried, and Vale fairly
blubbered. Attorney General
Brewster shut himself up and the
lawyers for the Government we're
nowhere to be seen. Altogether
these viotous proceedings were d fit
closing to one of the most disgracc-
ful and farcical trials in the worlds
history.
Not content with being acquit-
ted, it is now stated that Dorsey
intends commencing legal crus-
adeagainst the newspapers who have
flattered him with such epithets as
"thief,'' ringstsr,'' ''conspirator'
and "robber,' and will commence
by suing the New York Times, Her.
aid and Sun, and the Washington
Star for libel. ...
The record Of proceedings is the
largest ever made in criminal trial
in this country; printed in small
type it comprises over 5000 pages,
or about 4, 250,0 900 words. Such
trials will continue to come up as

There are thee points in the con-
troyersy between Germany and the
Vatican. The first is that the
Vatican or its representatives shall
notify the German Government of
all candidates for acceptance or re-
lection. The second is that The
Vatican shall have no disciplinary
power over the priesthood, that
prerogative to belong to the Gov
eminent. The third is that 10 one
shall occupy an ecclesiastical post
in Germany who has not been
educated in a German school or IN
iversity and passed a State exam

to effect a compromise have failed.

New YORK, June IA, 1888.

As was expected dark horse was
nominated for the Goyernership of
Ohio. The selection of Judge
Foraker is undoubtedly a good one.
In the first place he is young man,
and therefore it is fair to presume
that he will bring to his post new
ideas and vigorous policy. He
has been brought up in a good
school, and is therefore practical,
and last, but by no means least, he
will unite the factions. Ohio may
therefore be looked upon as a per-
fectly safe state, not alone at pres
ent, but more particularly in 1883.
| was talking with a promin ent
New York Republican senator to-
day about the prospect Of harmony
in the state. Said he: ''There are
no breaches between the factions as
some meddling New York papers
are trying to make out. In fact the
differences Of opinion are nearly all
on the surface only and between
the smaller men. If the papers
would only let things alone the
| problem Of harmony would soon be
solved. AS it is every picayune
