JOHN F1TZ PORTER.
Major Steels's 0,inion Of ths Celebrated
Case.
Hts Reasons for Presenting the Minor
ity Report Against the tseueraPs
Reinstatement.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l6. Representative
Steele, OF Indiana, who presented the mi.
nority report from the House Committee
on Military Affairs, opposing FiIz John
POrter's reinstatement to the army, said
to an interviewer that the case seemed too
important for him to scquiesce, through
COURTESY, IN the report OF the majority.
He believes that the court which convicted
Porter was composed OF too able and hon
orable men for their judgment, based on
fresh personal knowledge Of events, to be
cast aside 90 years after they considered the
question.
''Do you not find that their verdict and
sentence we're inconsistent was asked.

self in position similar to that OF the

pugnant. Ityou did not want your man to
go scot free, wouldn't you give him a SEN
tence that would be likely to be approved
rather than harsh one which might be
negatived through mercy. There was no
necessity for infcting the extreme penalty.
All this talk about i've to four court Is all
nonsense. No one knows but chat the

out Of employment. Senator Van Wyck's

tiers OF these roads provide when theft net
receipts shall exceed 10 per cent. Congress
shall have the authority to regulate charges
upon hese roads. The managers Of these
properties in their anxiety to unload
their stock upon the market, have
worked up the net receipts above
