SENATOR PUGHs REPORT.
The Minority Report of the Judiciary Com
nittee Replies to the Majority.

ntttte ftepnes I'D the nAaJoTity
Mr.. Pugh, OF Alabama. submitted to the Sen
ate, on the LIST OF March, the report Of
the minority Of the Judiciary Commit
tee on the Senate papers relating to the
removal from Office OF United States Dis
trict Attorney Dustin of Alabama. It is
very long. and co ltains no resolutions. 1t says
that when President Cleveland came into office
% per cent. of the Offices were filled by Repub-
licans. Notwithstanding the great demand of
his supporters for Offices and the fact that good
reasons for the removal OF Republicans were
abundant, removals from Office have been SPAR
ingly made.
In the case of Dustin the report says that
Dustin has made no complaint that he was
wronged. The whole point at issue Is the
right TO the possession of a single document
relating exclusively to the removal of Dus-
tin. The decision of the President that this
report says, be accepted as conclusive. The
minority admits that all public documents
lating to any subject over which Congress has
power are subject To call, but denies the right
10 mand documents relating exclusively u re-
movas suspensions The only rightful Gus
todian of such papers is ths President
The minority expresses surprise st tho ap-
pearance in the majority report OF the reso-
luton relating to the preference OF appointing
honorably discharged soldiers and sailors,
and asks by what authority such resolution
was reported, and what IL has to do
with the Dustin case The information of the
minority is that Dustin never was Union
soldier but on the contrary was either
n Confederate soldier or synpathizer, and they
believe the intent of the resolution was 20
cure politlcal ana partisan advantage. In con-
cusion, the report denies the right OF the Senate
to try the President for an alleged violation
of his public pledges. 1t admits that the
President did declare that he would not
remove officials merely because they were
Republicans. but says he at the same
time declared that he would decaptate
oficeholders who had been guilty of offensive
partisanship. The President, it says, declines
TO submit voluntarily TO the decisions of trib-
unal having no jurisdiction over the question,
the sufficiency of such cause for suspensions,
especially when his fear is that such conduct in
tho officer might be regarded by the Republican
majority as n reason for the retention Of the in
cumbent in office.
In relation TO the reasons of the President for
removing officials the report says THAT the docu-
ments in nearly every case contain only par
tial statement Of the causes facts, and reasons,
while in a large majority OF the cases the
President relied on oral testimony, which
it would be impossible for him to re-
member or reproduce in every case, so os 30 put
the Senate in possession Of all the facts which
governed him in the suspension, even II the
Senate had the authority under the Constitu-
ton or laws Of the United States to call him to
IN account.

A MOST WONDERFUL FAMILY.

weighs an Eighth OF Ton, and Six
Healthy Sisters.
From the Chicago Tribunel
A very mild hammered man passes quietly
about his business each day, and as he goes
along the street no one would imagine that
he weighs $50 pounds, without raiment.
His name is Richard Pyne; he has no spare
flesh, but any one who would tdke second
look would be satisfied that he is there or
thereabout. Mr.. Pyne's residence is at
No. 3641 Marshield avenue, and he is a
railroader, 20 years of age, and formerly in
the employ of the Chicago and Alton.
Aside from its faithfulness, it can be
stated that the family history, so far as
records show, is of very remarkable char
acter, both as regards brain and sinews.
AT present the Pyne family consists OF
twenty three children, seventeen boys and
six girls, and of the brothers it may be stated
Richard, with his ne-eighth of ton, is the
lightest one of the seventeen.
OF this family it may be further said that
the old people are still vigorous and living
at the old homestead in Killrush, County
Glare, Ireland; two sisters are married and
living in Buffalo, N. Y, while John E.,
Ed, and Tim are on the police force of the
same city. Another sister is living Mt FL
mira, N. Y, and yet another brother, Pat
rick, is the proprietor of one of the most
prominent saloons in San Francisco.

A WONDERFUL GUN.
Tests of n New Piece of Ordnance That Is
Expected to Throw Ball Fifteen Miles.
kalamazoo (Mich.) special

A remarkable gun, one that renders
armor-plated ships of about as little pro-
lection as wood, has just been tested here.
The first trial was made with the smallest
gun, which burst. The second trial, with n
3d. aliber gun, was more successful, send
ing n 2b-inch steel ball through n solid
steel plate 1 3-16 inches thick, imbedding the
ball eighteen inches in very hard wood In
third trial a. Inch ball was used and the
target, composed of fourteen thiclxnesses of
boiler plate, Ct inches, firmly attached to
an oak log. was perforated, the bali pene-
trating the log distance of four feet. the
passage through the iron and steel being
perfectly smooth. There is but slight re-
coil. In this powerful gun the powder is
so well used that the entire power Is con-
centrated on the proiectile. Two pounds of
powder were used in the heaviest test. The
inventor claims this gun will send a ball if
teen miles.
