THE SWAIN TRIAL AGAIN.
a Hypercritical Lawyer Objects to De-
eignating a Negro witness.

a Hypercritical Lawyer Objects to De-
signatinG Negro Witness.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Upon reading
the record of yesterdays proceedings in
the Swain court martial this morning.
Mr.. Boutwell,, of counsel for the accused,
called the attention of the court to the
fact that witness Rrown, who was called
for the defense yesterday, was described
in the record as Orchard Brown, col
ored." He objected to such description
of the witness. He said that Brown was
citizen of the United States, equal with
any other citizen, and should be described
in the record simply as other citizens who
were witnesses are described. He said
that ne would like to have the court re-
cOgniZe here and now in this matter the
fundamental law of the land which has
placed all citizens upon one equality. SIT
is due to the witness and to the character
of the government" said the counsel.
"that there should be no statement on the
record as to whether or not this man is a
colored man."
The Judge Advocate said that the word
'cOlored' had been placed after the name
of the witness by The reporter without
any instruction from him, as it was placed
after the names of all cOlored men who
were witnesses for the prosecution. He
said he did not think there was any neces-
sity for changing the record.
Maj. Gen. Schofeld, President of the
court, said that the court would take the
matter under consideration. He added:
''It is certainly not necessary to raise the
question OF equal rights of witnesses be-
fore this court. Nobody would entertain
the possibility of any such distinction"

A FRANK OPEN LETTER.
A SimOn-Pure COlored Democrat Ad
dresses the President Elect

n SlulOn-I uE6 OOlOTeu democrat AL
dresses the President Elect.
CHICAGO, Feb. 19.-The ConserUator,
colOred journal of this city, will publish
tomorrow an open letter to President
elect Cleveland from Andrew f. Bradley.
who claims to be the first Simon-pure
colOred Democrat Of the North. He is
the accepted leader among colored Demo-
crats, and stumped the State for Cleve-
land. The letter pleads for the promotion
of fraternal feelings between the
cOlored people and Democrats.
for in that he sees a division
of the cOlored vote and the consequent ad-
Yancement of the race. He reminds
President-elect Cleveland that there is a
change in the ranks of the cOlOred voters.
I'VE now weigh and measure with a
knowledge gained by experience. Our
sight is less distorted by prejudice; our
reason less yitiated by mistaken graft
tude." He recognizes the late election
to be a national admission that recon-
struction was failure. He says that the
cOlored people have had a political his
tory which has neither precedent nor
parallel. The slaves of yesterday are
freedmen to-day, and citizens Tomorrow
This was unnatural. Acts, however
humane, cannot subvert nature. Men
make freedmen. GOD makes freemen.
Legislation cannot change this law"
The colored people accept the situation.
We neither expect nor ask preferment on
account of our color. We beg no favOrs.
We ask only justice. This granted, we
are willing to work out our own saliva
ton. This sentiment the colored Dem
Ocrats desire to make universal. The
cOlOred people cannot afford to spurn the
friendship of half the white people of this
nation. The friendship of the DemOa
cratic party is just as desirable as the
friendship of the Republican party.
and it is equally so since
we look to your administration for an
energetic Endorsement of the equitable
principles of the Democratic platform.
We believe you will prove to the colored
man that the Democratic party is his
friend and thus revoIutionize the vote of
100000 people" He wants no
nall way men nor measures.
He wants cOlOred men to become
part of pure Democracy. There can be
but two great parties. There iFSS , mid
die ground. In reference to Inde-
pendents he says: ''The colof 7ce-
pendent is an aimless, undefinat til
cal factor, too intelligent to be u
can, but too cowardly to say g
changes with the winds; he is ;
as a friend and harmless as s
principle is policy and his pq = is
spOils. We want no converts Of this

A later dispatch says the British

Ruatan for Mobile, with cargo of fruit,
was wrecked on Dixie Island last night
during a heavy nOrtherly gale. She was
discovered at an early hour this morning,
and the pilot boat Ida Lowe proceeded to
the wreck. When the Olive was
reached only one of her crew was found,
and he was taken from the rigging in an
unconscious condition and lived only a
short time after being rescued. The
pilot boat cruised for some time in the
Vicinity of the wreck in the hope of saw

but none of them were found, and all are
supposed TO have been lost. The vessel

An Important Witness in the Mackin
Case Fatally Assaulted.
CHICAGO, Feb. 19.-John N. Cameron,
the witness subpG Gnaed to testify on be-
half of Joseph G. Mackin and other de-
PENDANTS in the election fraud case now
on trial before Judge BlOdgett, is very
low and will probably die. Cameron was
so badly injured in an assault in a saloon
few days ago, that he was unable to ap-
pear at the trial. Mackin said soon after
the atfray that Cameron was assaulted
at the instance of the prosecution. On
the other hand, it has been stated
that the assault was made at the instiga-
tion OF some of Mackin's friends because
Cameron had intimated that if he went
on the witness stand he might not testify
exactly as they wished. The two women
with whom Cameron was drinking beer at
the time of assault are under arrest, to-
gether with Edward Sullivan and Albert
Martin, to await the result of Cameron's
injuries. Sullivan is an active politician
and Martin is a commission merchant
