GOVERNOR WATERWAYS LETTER.
SACRAMENTO, CAL, Aug. 24.-Gov-
ernor Waterman has written the follow
ing letter to the attorney general of this
state:
Hon. G. a. johnson, Attorney General,
DEAR SIR-The arrest Of Hon. S. J.
Field, justice of the supreme court of
the United States, on the unsupported
oath of a woman, who, the day the oath
was taken, ana often before, threatened
his life, will be a burning dis
grace to this state unless disa-
vowed. [ therefore urge upon you
the propriety Of ut once instructing the
district attorney Of San Juan county to
dismiss the unwarranted proceedings
against him. The question of jurisdIc-
ton of state courts over the United
States marshall is one for argument, but
the unprecedented indignity on Justice
Field does not admit of argument.

The Authorities of st. Peters Asylum, st.
Paul, Charged with Wrong Doing.
ST. PAUL, MINI, Aug. 24.-Another
story of inhuman treatment Is being told
which, If true, VIII draw considerable
attention to the management of ST. Pc
ter's asylum and may possibly end in an
investigation The story has been told
by Rev. S. D. Kemerer, Methodist pas
tor at OrtonvilIe. Several weeks ago he
wrote Secretary Hart, making complaint
that a young lady of Big Stone county
had been most fOuIly dealt with by
citizen of Minneapolis, who, in addition
to his shameful treatment Of the girl had
her finally placed in st. PETERS asylum.
Mr.. Kemerer charges that the Young
lady was not sent to st. Peter as q luna
tie, but that the authorities knew the
facts and took charge of her to hide the
wrong done by the Minneapolis man. It
is related that her father wrote to Super
inteudent Bartlett, but did not
receive satisfactory re-
ply, whereupon William Campbell,
probate Judge, wrote but received no
answer. LatterIy the girl has been re-
leased and she makes the charge that her
treatment there was very immoral. She
has signified her willingness to testify to
their acts before the board of corrections
and charities, but she has not vet been
called to do so. This is the story and it
is now being Investigated by the state
board OF charities and corrections.

An Old Act Found Authorizing the CherOkees
to Sell at Any Time.
VNITA, I. T., Aug. 24.-Judge A. NJ.
Wilson of the Cherokee commission was
in the city to-day en- route to Fayette-
vile, Ark. He stated to reporter that
when looking over the records of the
Cherokee legislature for 1873 he found
an act authorizing the sale of Cherokee
lands west of the Arkansas river. The
act was approved by the governing chief
at the time The discovery of
this act will probably hasten nego-
tiattons with the Indians considerably
inasmuch as there is no necessity now of
submitting the matter to tho peo-
pie for vote or calling a session
Of the Legislature to authorize
Chief Mayes to make the sale. Mr.
Wilson s visit to the ChIckasaws and
Arapahoes developed the fact that those
Indians are quite willing to- sell their
lands at fair price.
