WASHINGTON, March 22-This evenings Star
says: 1.-THE Democrats Of the Indiana delega-
tion called upon the President last Saturday, to
urge the appointment of John b. Stoll to sue
seed Mr. Rounds as Public Printer. They urged
that it was necessary, to save the State of In
diana to the party, that something should be
done, ard that the appointment of Mr.. Stoll was
the thing. Mr.. Cleveland, it is reported, did
not seem to appreciate the necessity for making
the appointment to save Indiana to the Demo
crets. thinking that the Democrats there ought
TO DO able to take care Of that, and he assured
them that he did not intend to make any change
in the Office of Public Printer during this session
Of Congress. He said that the position was a
very important one, and that Mr.. Rounds was
conducting the work with efficiency. and he
bould see no reason why change should be
made at this time at the risk Of causing con-
gusion and interfering with the work Of Con-
gress. The delegation went away very wrath
ful, some Of them predicting that the Democrats
would lose everything In the State this fall, and
that Republican Senator would be elected to

ORDINANCE COMMISSIONS.

They Are Always Failures. and the Present
Body Is No Exception to the Rule.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, March 22-The three or four
months that have been spent by the special ord
nance commission created by the House of Rep
resentatives, in determining upon its report,
demonstrates the wisdom of remark recently
made by one of the old members, when he said
that ordnance commissions always had been and
always would be failures. During the history
Of the efforts of Congress to provide ample ord
nance for the United States. there have been at
least four or five distinct commissions appointed.
In each instance there has been minority re-
port submitted. 1t was strongly Endorsed by
almost as many of the members as the majority
report Like the tariff the work of ordnance
commissions has many local features The COM
mission which has just submitted it's report
worked for three months in investigating the
capacities of tho iron and steel foundres of this
country and then spent three times that much
time in determining upon the report The in
formation given by each of these commissions
is never alike and since nothing like a unan-
nous agreement can be had among members of
the commission or among members of Congress-
although written statements may make 1t appear
that there is something like unanimity, this
work will continue to be failure. There is no
probability that this Congress will act upon the
suggestions of this commission.

he said and quite a number left out which
should have been inserted, for some reason he
could not discover.
Mr. Randall seemed to imagine he could see
motives in the bill personal to its author. The
provision relating to all kinds of metals he
thought very unjust Many of the tariff protec-
tionists estimating that the bill will fall
short of at least thirty votes in the House below
the securing of majority.

THE MACK1N-GALLAGHER CASE.

The Supreme Court Says Their Crime Was
.Infamous," and the Trial Illegal.
WASHINGTON. March 22.-The Supreme Court
Of the United States to-day rendered its decision
on the questions submitted to it by the Circuit
Court in the Mackin- Gallagher election con-
spiracy case. Justice Gray delivered the opin-
ION of the court. He said:
sIn ex parte Nelson it was held by this court,
upon full consideration, that crime punisha-
bic by Imprisonment for term of years at hard
labor Is an infamous crime within the meaning
of the fifth amendment to the Constitution of
the Uni ted States. which declares that mo per-
sons shall be hold to answer for capital or
otherwise infamous crime unless on a present
ment or indictment by grand jury and, there
fore, could not be prosecuted by information in
any court of the United States. The argument
by which the soundness of these conclusions has
been now impugned is, in substance, the same
as the one submitted In that case. and has not
convinced US that there was any error in that
kecision.n

Congress upon this subject, the court stgs, Is to

Casey Young Continues His Testimony-Gar-
land Refused to Bring Suit.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-Casey Young con-
tinued his testimony before the telephone inves-
tigation committee to day. He said that Gen.
Atkins was not member of Congress at the
time the Pan-electric contract was drawn. The
witness was Congressman elect, but General
Atkins went out on the 4th of March, 1883. while
the contract was entered into on March Is. The
witness never offered to sell or give share of
the stock to any ms Der of Congress. No mem
Der offered to buy dollars worth of stock from
him, nor did ne offer to give it to any. Mr..
Dunn, of Arkansas, had talked with the witness
about the stock, and asked what he thought
about exchanging house for it, to which the
witness had replied, advising him to keep the
house and let the stock go. Mr.. Ranney asked
if the witness could tell what members of Con-
gress he had conversed with about the Pan
electric. He replied that he had talked with
Messrs Dunn. McMillin, Taylor Hopkins and
Stockslager. There were fifty or more. at least
and the witness could not mention all of them.

gress would ever have anything to do with the
telephone-that legislation would ever result.

the counsel stated what they came for, and Gar
land said he was interested in telephone COM
pany and could not talk to them about 1t. The
counsel insisted, and Mr.. Garland said "Gen-
