Gov. Hendricks Talks.
Indianapolis dispatch.l


The indianapolis Ne,cs contains an interview
with Vice President Hendricks about the story
put INTO circulation bv Chauncey NJ. Depew to
the effect that President Andrew Johnson con-
templated the establishment OF a congress- com
posed entirely of rebel sympathizers.
That story won't do, said Mr.. Hendricks,
and public opinion will not sustain any such
charges made twenty years after the alleged
events happened. and after all the persons who
were directly connected with them are dead.
Personally L know nothing of Mr.. Johnson's
opinions or intentions further than the inf6fma-
ton that came to me in the position that
held i was in the United States Senate. and
both spoke and voted against the impeachment
OF Johnson. While never had any CONVERSE
ton with him on the subject referred TO by De-
pew, i am sure that Johnson had no such
intentions. He believed in restoring, and
not IN reconstructing, States, and that
the Federal Government had no right to
change abrogate their constitutions
think Mr. Lincoln had this view ALSO
removed, but IL was on personal grounds, for
they were not friends. l cannot believe he had
any such purpose as that attributed TO him,
and have never heard it charged before the
last few DAYS. IL is not likely that such an i'm
portant political matter could have remained
silent for twenty years. | have read the vari-
Gus statements about IL in the papers, and am
inclined To give the greatest credence TO that of
Judge Goodin, of Greenfield, whose recollec-
ton about shch matters Is always accurate,
and who was then in position to know what
President Johnson wanted TO do.

Ben Butter Interviewed.
boston special

Gen. Butler said to- day that there were many
reasons why the Grant-Johnson matter was not
brought into the Impeachment trial Johnson
was not charged with the offense of which
Grant mistrusted him. and the evidence they
could have produced would have been ncom-
petent. There was no legal evidence by which
1t could have been proven. Gen. Grant
could not have disclosed it. There was
another project of PRESIDENT Johnson's, as to
revolutioniZing the Government. which was
not brought INTO the impeachment proceed
ings. Il had some very strong moral evidence,
said Gen. Butler, which did not care to make
known in the impeachment proceedings. The
facts. however, were not so conclusive that
deemed IL proper TO exhibit an article OF i'm
parchment. founded on them, against the Pres
ident. still retain some of the instruments of
evidence that strongly tend to support my be-
lief The proposition of Mr. Johnson 20 con-
troll the Government, differing from that of
Gen. Grant, IL now seems TO me. for the first
time, must have been made after Gen. Grant
had refused TO accede to it. What was known
TO me was not In shape TO be brought before the
public"

WASHINGTON telegram. ]

lWaSn1ngtOn telegraiu.J
The Washington Star prints interviews with
w. Warden. who was Assistant Private Secre-
tary TO President Johnson, and A. III. Evans,
Washington correspondent of the Boston Post
during President Johnson's administration, TO-
garding the Presidents policy during the re-
construction period. Mr.. Warden SAYS that
there was not the shadow of n reason for be-
leving that President Johnson ever had an idea
of an armed conflict arising from his disagree
ment with Congress, and through his intimate
relations with the President had satisfied him
self that no extreme measures
would be employed. Mr.. Evans
says he enjoyed the confidence OF President
Johnson, who related to him In detail the causes
leading up 10 the quarrel with Gen. Grant.
President Johnson told Mr.. Evans that Gen.
Grant had caused the suspension of Secretary
Stanton by his repeated complaints agains that
official. Gen. Grant agreed to assume the Office
OF Secretary of War until 1t should please the
President TO relieve him, and that agreement
was made before the full Cabinet. When Pres
ident johnson was informed that Gen. Grant
had abandoned the office to Mr.. Stanton aud
had returned TO his headquarters he charged
him with treachery at a Cabinet meeting.

The Raineys in Jail.

GAINESVILLE, March 15.-LSpecial.l l.
The Raineys were brought in to-day
and were met at tho depot by an i'm.
mense crowd, who were anxious TO get
glimpse of the prisoners. They were
heavily guarded, and as soon as taken
from the train, were placed in q bus
and hurriedly driven to the Jail, fol-
lowed by an eager crowd. When the
excitement had subsidized, the HERALD
correspondents terviewed the prisoners
and found them rather retioent, but
elected the following information: j.
II. Rainey positively denies having had
any hand in the shooting of Constable
johnson and Deputy Constable Floyd,
and for information as to who did it, re-
ierred to his son, Jim. The latter did
not deny having killed Johnson and
wounded Floyd, and in reply to the
question, if it was done in self
defense, replied: "Time will prove
that" Both stated that all they
wanted was justice, and that they had
i attended to surrender themselves as
soon as the excitement had died away.
When asked if they had any fear of The
crowd at the depot, they said not the
least, though apparently they exhibited
considerable trepidation. In the adj
joining cell is another son of j. Ii. Raj
ney, who was arrested just previous to
the killing Of Johnson, on the charge of
carrying a pistol. They realize that
public sentiment is against them, and
are aucasy lest justice be denied them.

Sheriff Douglas interviewed.

SHERMAN, March l5,-.Special,l-
Sheriff Ed. Douglas and posse returned
from Denison last night.
Your reporter attempted to interview
him then, but no wouldn't he inter-
viewed until morning. This morning
we learn that he went 10 D6nlson atre-
quest Of railroad authorities and city
officials Of Denison. The arrangement
previous to starting with the parties
representing the city of Denison, and
Douglas, after learning from him that
he would take sufficient force TO pre-
serve the poace and permit the railroad
to move the freight, was that he
stop his men at the city limits, and that
the city authorities would assist him II
necessary, but that it would not DO nee
essary. According TO this arrangement
he had the mon who were on the tram
with him iget Off about one mile south
of Denison, where others under his dep
uties, were already and proceeded to Dem
ison accompanied by his deputy, Bob
May. He ut once proceeded TO the may.
or's office, and with him and some OF
the city council, repaired to the depot,
and after consultation with Messrs.
Vandine and Woodford, representing
tie railroads, it was agreed that
an attempt would be made to
move the freight. Douglas informed
them that he would arrest the first per,
son who, in any way, intertered, and
that if the force of police of Denison,
there on hand, were not sufficient, he
would bring his men up. An engine OF
a passenger train from the north came
down tho track until it came to dis
abled locomotive that had been crippled
some days previous while ED Douglas
was on it, to couple to it and move 1t
from the track. When it was reached the
engineer stepped off of the loco Motive
and refused to go on. The railroad Off
Gals then saw That they were powerless
and it agreed that the sheriff
could withdraw. Douglas re-
ports that the strikers all
behaved quiet and gentlemanl}, and
only one attempted to argue with him
the propriety of his coming to Denison,
but he was quickly caused to shut up by
his brother strikers. He was out
among them alone, and talked to them,
and not the least intimation of anything
bordering on disorderly conduct or ruf-
fan ism came under his observation.
Previous to his arrival there was a feel
ing against him for the course he had
taken, but on his arrival all seemed to
understand the situation, and that he
was only performing a disagreeable
duty, imposed on him by virtue OF his
office.

The oxtradition of F. Baum, tho well.
known cotton swindler, who is pris-
oner at Chatham, Ontario, has grown,
by reason of his stubborn resistance, to
be an international item, so to speak,
and his case is being watched with
much interest by both gOvernm nts.
Judge Bell, at Chatham, presid-
ing in the case, is no
doubt convinced of Baum's gueil
for he appears to have a regard for the
spirit of the law in his rulings.
Monday the forgery case against
Baum was continued until the 10th inst.
The following was introduced on
Baum's trial for arson, and is taken
from the Chatham Banner: 1t is

same day and endorsed with the return
of Constable g. FL. Miller; the original
verdict of the jury impaneled to
inquire into the lire alluded to, dated
March II, 1882, three days subsequent to
the fire; the certificate of Mr.. L.
