United States Cavalry and served as an enlisted
man until 1880. when he was romoted to be a
second lieutenant and assigned to the Ninth Cav
airy. Prior to his promotion he married a young
lady in West Philadelphia, and it is charged that
after his promotion he wrote to his wife inform
ing her that his promotion placed him so far
above her in the social scale that it would be bet
ter that they should be divorced, as he could not
introduce her into the society of his brother
officers and that of their families, and that finally
he obtained a divorce in a California court, a
State in which he never had a domicile.
His wife directed suit to be brought to set
aside the decree, on the ground that the divorce
was illegally obtained. Judge Kelley brought
the matter to the attention of General Logan
when McBlairs nomination was sent to the SEN
ate, a few days ago. Senator Logan agreed that
the charges should be looked into, but the COM
mittee. during the absence of General Logan,
aud not having been informed of the charges. re-
ported the nomination to the Senate and it was
confirmed. Upon ascertaining that fact Judge
Kelley called on Senator Logan, who imme-
diately took steps to have the nomination re-
called by the President, and the case is again
before the Senate.

loading rifles"
In view of this state of affairs. gthe committee
recommend the completion Of the monitors and
recommend the building of the vessels and tor
pedo boats discussed in the bill already pub
lished. The committee hopes that, in view
of the very considerable quantity Of
armor required for the vessels. that
responsible American firms may be induced to
enter upon the work of making the armor needed,
and the opinion is expressed that the needed
workshops will grow up along with the navy, and
that the arts Of forging heavy steel and building
guns andkhips of war willd develop in America side
by side. The report explains and defends the pro-
visions of the bill submitted by the naval COM
mittee. and concludes as follows:
w trust the bill may meet with the appro-
baton of both houses of Congress. and that its
enactment into law may, as an important step
toward the creating of an efficient navy. contrib
ute to a feeling of increased national security.
At present, such a feeling of security among
wellinformed people can only come from the be-
lief that no nation viii dare attack another when
it is helpless"
The report is signed by every member of the
committee.

The Killing of Captain Crawford.

NEW YORK, March 5.-The Army and Navy
journal tomorrow will publish a long letter,
dated at Fort Grant, A. T., in relation to the
killing of Captain Crawford and the wounding
of some of his men by Mexican soldiers on Jan.
IL. 1t gives the history of the hunt
through the mountains after Geronimo's
band, aud details the fight in which Captain
Crawford was killed very infinitely, insisting
that the Mexicans did not mistake the federal
soldiers for Indian; that it was their intention to
drive off Crawfords omman and rob his camp,
and that it was only when they found the force
too strong to be driven off that they ceased firing
and invented the excuse given. The following
editorial summary by the Journal gives the sa-
lient features of the letter:
1.-The correspondent reports, in the first place,
that the attack was made, not at night. or in the
dusk, but by daylight; next. that Crawford,
when he was shot, wore the uniform Of
his rank in the United States service,
as did also Lieutenat Maus. Further, it appears
that Captain Crawford was killed, and his inter-
prefer, Mr.. Horn, wounded by a musketry fire
after the cessation of a previous attack, and
while they were standing within twenty
five yards of the Mexican commander, and
holding a parley with them, the con-
versation being carried on in Spanish
by Mr.. Horn. TIL firing of this second attack
was continued for an hour and a half, and what
ever possibility there may be of explaining the
first attack, which lasted fifteen minutes, the
second was of such a nature as to exclude the
reasonable presumption of innocence which the
law Allows

A Horrible Murder Confessed.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March Bill Brown, col
ored. one of the five negroes concerned in the
brutal murder of Frank Arnold, who was shot
and stabbed, his head chopped off, and his body
cut into seven pieces and buried in a tanbark
pile, made a full confession yesterday in the
Criminal Court. He swore that Arnold was
dragged into a thicket and shot in the head by
Simon Fox, who afterward stabbed him twice in
the neck. Arnold uttered several cries, where
upon Ben Brown struck him on the head with a
band of iron. The body was carried some dis
tance and buried. On the following night it was
taken to a stable, where Simon cut off Arno!d's
head with a Ratchet, and. carrying it into the
house, cut three bullets out of it with a knife.
Ben Brown. Nelson Johnson and Foster cut off
the legs and arms, and conveyed the remains to
the city. The head was first placed in a creek
and afterward hidden, where it was discovered
by the officers. Arnold was killed that Ben
Brown might obtain some land on which Arnold
resided. An attempt was made by the defense
to prove that Ben Brown had once been a con-
Wet, but it failed. Bob McLin, who was ar
rested in connection with the crime, is to be
prosecuted for forging Arnold's name, and for
perjury. The trial will probably end on Satur-
day. TIL general impression is that Ben Brown
will be convicted of murder in the first degree.

A Strong Lobby Opposing the Proposed In

WASHINGTON, March 5.-During the past

readily be distinguished from the genuine article.
The manufacturers OF imitation butter, in their
various arguments before the on agri-
culture, went into an analysis of oleomargarine
and showed how and of what it was made, claim
ing that it was more clearly and wholesome than
butter from the cow, and that, as Secretary Bay

orally adopted for use as soon as the people un-
derstood its composition and get over their

imitation butter factories all over the country,
and the proprietors of them say the market for
their products in this and foreign countries has
SO greatly increased that it is a necessity; that
the cows cannot supply the demand for butter.
The fight has reached t he condition of the Ia
boring classes being arrayed against the farm

ter-makers expect to throttle the oleomargarine
interests they will have to organize and make a
firm opposition.

RiddIeberger VS.. Hutchins.

Washington Special.
The resolution offered by Senator Riddleberger,
this afternoon. for the investigation Of the
private secretaries roll of the Senate, was aimed
at Stilson Hutchins. Mr.. Hutchins is on the
list as the duly -accredited secretary OF Senator
Mat Ransom, of South Carolina, and as such he
draws Sc a day from the government. Not long
since Mr.. Hutchins's paper. the Post, contained
a column editorial reviling Riddleberger. and the
paper has since contained several unpleasant al
lusions to him. This is Mr.. Riddleberger's way
of getting even. OF course. Mr.. Hutchins does
not get the Sc. 1t stays in the Ransom family.
Mr.. Ransom has certified to the Sergeant at
arms, however, that Mr.. Hutchins performs the
duties of a private secretary for him. Seven or
eight newspaper correspondents are on the Sem
ate roll as private secretaries. most Of whom re-
ceive no emolument and perform no work.
They have the privileges of the Senate floor.

privileges.

Another Suspension rhreatened.

NEW YORK. March 5.-When the tie-up was de-
clared off. this afternoon, the men on. the
Blocker and Twenty-third-street lines refused
o presume work unless the superintendent of the
road. Thomas McLane, was at once discharged.
The officers of the road replied that they had
just recently met all the demands of the strikers
for more pay and less work, and they proposed
not to discharge a faithful man without cause.
The police were informed. and Superintendent
Murray kept the reserve of the Broadway squad
at headquarters in case of trouble. knights of
Labor delegates went into conference
with officers of the road at about
$50, and after midnight the committee
of the Knights of Labor came from
the conference-room and said that no terms Of
any kind had beer reached. Another conference
not accede to the mems demands, and discharge
Superintendent McLane, the road will remain
tied up. 1t is also probable. they said, that q
general strike on all the roads of the city will
again be ordered tomorrow unless their demands
are met.
LATER.-I:35 A. Mt has just been deter
mined by the Bleecker-street and Twenty third
street strikers to withdraw their demand for the
discharge of Superintendent McLane; but they
now demand twelve hours work and 81 % there
for. The officials of the road offered So for
twelve hours work, which was the basis Of set
tlement to day by the East Side strikers, but
this was refused, and the men say they will
have s.. 25 for twelve hours or tie up their cars
again.
