To Relieve Gan. Grant.

Congress can we'll give its immediate
attention to the question of placing Gen.
Grant upon tho retired list. Tho bill for
this purpose. which passed the senate and

doubtedly open to the same objection as

IL Is an attempt on the part of congress to
interfere with the appointing power of
the executive. But congress has the
right 10 create the Office of an additional
general upon the retired list leaving to
tho President 10 select the occupant OF
that position. A bill Of this character,
substituted for the one sent down from
the-Asnate, II II should pass the house,

Of tho senate. There is no doubt that
President Arthur would meet the wishes

The proceedings before the Swain court
martial Saturday were eullvened by long
and acrimonious wranglc between counsel, In
which much ofthe unpleasantness that has been
developed at times US the case has progressed
was brought to the surface. This Jwrangle grew
out of the presentation by counsel for the
defense of a written motion to the court stating
that in view Of the unusual circumstances at
tending the trial of this case. II would be UNI
fair to the accused to compel counsel for the
defense to make the argument In this case in
the opening, without hearing any part OF the
argument OF the prosecution. (This in view
of the announcement made before the recess
by the Judge advocate that the prosecution
would close the argument and would not make
any opcning) The motion stated the request
of the accused that both sides be restricted to
one argument, or else that the prosecution be
directed to state their case In the opening and
be allowed the closing argument, thus giving
| counsel for the accused the opportunity to
| learn what points would be made by the
prosecution. The court decided that counsel
| for the accused may make their argument. or
arguments, at the termination of the evidence,
and may be followed by the associate counsel
for the government, and that the accused
| through either oihis counsel may make reply
| to the associate counsel, and tine Judge adyo-
| cate may present the closing argument.
