A YEAR ago 'the Swedish count" was
a familiar parsonage in Milwaukee. He
resided in the country, coming to the
city almost weekly, when he would be
come intoxicated and spend hundreds of
dollars nightly. He was frequently
arrested, and finally became so accus-
toned to spending his time in the pc
lice station that he would surrender
himself frequently when he became
drunk. A year ago he was arrested by
two eastern detectives and was spirited
away. Later it became known that
"the count" was wanted in his native
city of Stockholm for bank robbery and
murder, and that the eastern detectives
were from Scotland Yard, London, and
earned reward of $1,000 by his arrest.
Recently he was tried, convicted and
sentenced to penal servitude for life
While living in Wisconsin ''the count"
squandered fully $50, 200 of his i'll gotten

WASHINGTON, March 16.-Fitz-J ohm
Porter will not be able to get upon the
retired list of the army without overcom-
ing very serious obstacle in his way in
the War department. The slight differ
ence between the senate and house upon
the subject of his retirement can be easily
adjusted. Neither is there very much
doubt of the president signing the bill,
although he may delay little on account
of the numerous protests daily received
at the White house from old soldiers
tn oughout the country, who do not
believe that Porter should be reinstated,
but if the bill is signed the President
will have to appoint him through the
secretary of war. The appointment
would not be complete without an order
issued by the secretary. Mr.. Lincoln
has said, since the passage of the bill,
that he would resign his seat in the cab
met before he would issue an order re-
storing Porter to the army.
