HIS ACTION.
Publication of an Official Letter Calls Forth
Praise From Window.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-Secretary Win
dom, in a letter to the collector of customs
at Detroit regarding the case of Mrs. Nc
Callum, of indianapolis, Neb., arisingfrom
the unnecessary detention of herself and
baggage, says: THE department approves
of your method of communicating the re-
suits of inquiry of complaints as being sub
s%tantial in compliance with the instructions
of the department and quiteas satisfactory.
The early publication given to department
letters of which you make mention, was
in harmony with the custom to permit
members of the press to inspect copies
of official letters deemed of public
interest. and under this rule the commu-
nication addressed to you obtained publ
cation in advance of its receipt. But If
such practice were not existent its publ
carton prior to its receipt by you was JUS
tifable under particular circumstances of
the case, as an admonition to officers ofcus-
toms not only at your port but at other
ports throughout the country; that as SER
wants of the public. it is indispensable that
they shall at all times and in all places ex-
ercise their functions with patience, dis
cretion and courtesy"

GOSSIP OF THE CASE.
The Cronin Jury Bribers Will BE Prosecu-
ted With All Haste.

CHICAGO. Dec. 19.-Now that the Gro
min trial is out of the way the next move
is to push the case against the men indict-
ed for trying to pack the jury box with
brlbed and perJured jurors In the interest
of the defendants. The case will proba-
bly, be. brought to trial early next month.
The men under Indictment are
Mark Solomon and A. D. Hanks, the
ex-bailitfs; Joseph. Kowen, fruiterer; +.
w. Smith, manufacturers agent; Tom
Kavanaugh, plumber, and John Gra-
ham, law clerk. K%avanaugh has been
trying to make peace with the authorities,
but has not succeeded very well. Unless
he and Graham tell who were their en-
ployers they stand a good chance of land
ing In the penitentiary with the men
they tried to save.
Juror Culver called upon the state s
attorney yesterday morning and was very
rudely treated by that official. Among
other things Judge Longeneeker said to
him: Il used to have confidence in you,
but | wouldn' t trust you across the street
with q nickel. You are either corrupt or
crazy-and | don't believe you are crazy.
You followed to the letter the instructions
In the letter found by Juror Dix in his
pocket before the jury was completed.
That letter told him to stick out for ac-
%quittal, to throw doubt on the circum-
stantlal evidence, to vote for fourteen
years for Coughlin, O'Sullivan and Burke,
and finally TO prevent the death penalty
from being fixed. And that, Culver, is
what you have done. You said the Carl
son, the people who had less at stake than
anybody, were perjurors, and you mainly,
because you were protected by the sacred
ness of the %jury-room, tried to cast re-
Elections upon the character and honor of
as pure and chaste a woman as ever lived.
| need not mention her name to you. You
= but I'm forgetting myself"
The chances are that the case will never
reach the supreme court at all, for even if
Coughlin and his crew are given a new
trial they will run the risk of being hang
ed. Their friends claim they do not want
to run the risk. Lawyer Forrest called on
the prisoners yesterday and had them all
sign a mysterious paper, and then, after
cautiOning them not to talk toreporters, he
announced that he was going to leave town
for two weeks. He is going 70 Wisconsin
to fish. Judge Mcconnell is goingto Flor
ida to spend the holidays.
CHICAGO, Dec. 19.-Juror John Culver,
of the Cronin trial notoriety, began suit
today against the Chicago Herald for
s25, 900 damages, for an article published
Sunday intimating he had been influenced
by brides.

After the Frederiksens.

CHICAGO, Dec. 20.-Now that States
Attorney L~ongenecker has temporarily dis
posed of the Cronin case he proposes to
turn his attention for a brief period to the
Frederiksen land swindle. Today or to-
morrow he will go through the records of
the detectives that have been engaged on
the case, and give instructions as to the
course which should be persued, He says

bottom. The ~absconding land dealer has
not yet been located, but the Pinkerton
agents throughout the United States and
Canada have received special instructions
which will doubtless result in his arrest.

CHICAGO, Dec. I'm. S. Goodman. a

panlons got on a car with him

and began clubbing him, when Goodman
drew a revolver and Sred three shoes. one
taking effect on O'Connell. The two
toughs then fed, and Goodman, much
made his way to the nearest
police station and told his story. Officers
were put at work and today captured

neck. Aguard has been placed owe him,

Spoke a Few Words to the All Americans
in New York.

New YORK, Dec. 19.-The AIl-Ameri-
can delegates to-day %journeyed about in
the city In carriages, visited Brooklyn,
and afterward visited the chamber of com
merce, where President Smith delivered
an address. Gen. Sherman also spoke.
Referring to Brazil, he said that at the
centennial celebration of the declaration
of independence in 1876, he had
observed Dom Pedro reading a copy
Of that hostoric document. The emperor
had said to him that his father had said:
Read and study it." Gentlemen, con-

SUSTAINED THE DEMURRER.
Decision of Judge Brewer Involving Mill
Lions of Acres.

KANSAS CRY, Dec. 20.-By sustaining
the demurrer, Judge Brewer, of the United
States court today decided a point %involv-
ing the main issues in the famous Beales
land grant case, which involves sixty mil
lion acres of land In Colorado, New Mexi-
co and Texas. The title of the case pend
ing Is, The Interstate Land Company VS..
The Maxwell Land Grant Company; also
the Maxwell Land Grant company against
Vicente Puctea and others. The decision
is favorable to Maxwell in that it holds
that the grant to the Inter State Land com
pany cannot hold, for the reason that
the concessions made by Mexico
were never completed. Mr.. Beales
had no title to any land except what was
set off to him by the Mexican government
as IN enpresario. Judge Brewer holds
that the Mexican government limited the
quantity of land to be held by one person
to eleven leagues square; that in the
Beales grant there was a stipulation that
200 families should occupy it, which the
interstate land company claims to have a
right to grant by accession.

name as one of the contributors to the sup
port of the hospital would be excellent
help to that institution. Mr.. Cleveland
said that all other applicants used the
same argument. He would like
to assist all worthy institu-
tions but his finances would not allow
him to do so; he would consult
Mrs. Cleveland about this particular re-
quest. Then he added. significantly, The
truth of the matter is the demands which
are constantly made upon me for aid are
so numerous and come from so many diff
ferent quarters that I have about made up
my mind to leave New York in order to
get AWAY from these reauests.n

And evils from Pandora's box fly thick,
Instead of stopping 10 philosophize,

Boston, Dec. 21.-The spread of the in.
Auenza epidemic among all classes In Bos-

Forty-thres policemen are reported sick
with the influenza. Quite a number of
firemen are unable to attend fires from the
same cause. The malady is prevalent
among railroad and bank clerks, which is
by some theorists attributed to the hand
ling of infected tickets by the former and
infected money by the latter. Many post
office employees have also been attacked,
and foreign mails are looked upon with
suspicion. Both types of the disease known
to physicians seem to be prevalent in Bos-
ton.
