The smith Court.Martial.


SOMETHING OF SENSATION CAUSED BY COR
REsPoNDENCE IN REFERENCE 10 EXTENSION
OF CONTRACTS.
In the court-martial trial of Paymaster Gen.
eral Smith, OF the navy, to-day, the cross.
examination OF the accused - q witness In his
own behalf was continued. The witness testi.
fed that he awarded the mattress contr,ct I'm
accordance with an order Of the Secretary OF
the navy. One of the principal charges against
Seneral Smith is that he extended q contract
In the course Of this trial the defense learned
Lnat commodore Schley, who IL now acting In
General Smiths place, had extended contracts.
sn1 tney calico for the correspondence Il was
ilken, contractor for flannel, and another con-
tractor for silk handkerchiefs, asked F6r extern.
within the time specified in their c %
Inc bureau, as managed by General Smiths
successor, refused to actually extend the time
ny order, but notified the contractors that IL
they would deliver the goods within thirty
Gays AFTER the expiration Of the contract they
would be received Something Of q sensation
showing an extension Of contract was sent up
In response to the call Of the defense, but
reyoking the order or permission of extension.
, The correspondence which somewhat upset
the prosecution consisted OF a letter from Mr..
tract for flannel The present acting head OF
the bureau, Commodore Schley, replied to the
pay inspector at New York as follows:
WASHINGTON, July 25th, 1885.
Your letter Of the oath instant inclosinp
copy of letter from Mr.. Seth NJ. Millihen, In
contract Of April 2sd, 1885, which expired on
the 23d instant, and stating but 1881 yards
had been delivered, has been received.
The bureau declines to extend the contract but
under the circumstances you are authorized 70
accept deliveries Of the flannel to August 3lst,
Inclusive provided 1t is Of navy standard. In
case the contract is not completed at that date,
the flannel, as required. will be purchased In
open market at the cost Of the contractor.
This was an actual extension of the contrac
Tor 30 days. and when the defense called for the
correspondence and developed the fact the let
tiers were sent to the court with an order re-
voking the extension which Commodore Schley
had granted.

RESTRICTING THE LAND GRANT RAILROADS.
The acting commissioner of the general land
Office, Mr.. Walker, has issued circular to reg
listers and receivers of land offices which re-
stricts the powers Of land grant railroads in
making selectio ms of indemnity lands
and requires specified list of
the lands for which indemnity Is
asked. In cases where indemnity has been
granted and there is no record of the losses the
registers and receivers are required to demand
granted. The object OF this circular is to pre-
vent the road from selecting the choicest 10
cation and holding them for years exempt
from public entry.
