the said accounts, and ] therefore have
made q new trial ledger, which I submit
70 you, and from which ! make the fol.
lowing report.
I find that for the year 1887 the &C.
counts between the auditor and the
treasurer do not materially disagree, en-
cept that the auditor did, not give the
treasurer credit for the delinquent rolls
Of 1856 and 1886 turned over and some
tfeasureT's percentage.
AZ the August term, 1883, Of your court
the treasurer claimed q credit Of t707 as
error on the duplicate tax roll Of 1857,
which was allowed by your court and
which ! end should not have been allow
Cd, Il being . mere clerical error on du-
plicate roll and he should not have claimed
itas 1t that time the tax roll wasnot In his
possession, be having turned It back TO
the audltor and received credit for the
same in March previous, therefore said
amount should be refunded to the county.
He also received credit for 500 on the
special school district No. 20 Troll Of 1887,
the same being the tax Of J. N. Baxter
he claiming Il as an error and We finding
nothing incorrect about said tax In schod-
uls ''B" reported the same delinquent,
which said tar has not been collected and
Is still due said school district. In No
Vember, 1883, the treasurer was not
charged with the tax roll for that year
neither was the $4,000 belngmoney derived
from county bonds charged to him northat
received from leasing school lands during
February, 1850. I find that the amount
Of cash turned over TO the present treas
urer, in November, ,lsss, was $40, 0lS.so
and from my balance I find the amount
Is s1l ,0l2.75. q difference Of tl,OsI.s6 still
due the county,
Ihave in the new trial ledger balanced
the accounts Of the auditor and treasurer
up 10 March LIST, 1850, when the present
officers took their seats.
The accounts Of the sheriff I have bal
anced up TO date aud given him credit for
all the delinquent rolls which he was
charged with and bad in his possession,
a ordered By you at your February term,
1859. An amounts due the county BY
the sheriff, as shown by the foregoing
report have been paid into the treasury.

In the House.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l4,-Not more
than two dozen members were present
when the house met in continuation Of
Thursdays session. Stewart and Barnes
of Georgia and Reilly of Pennsylvania
entered emphatic protests against the
adoption Of the proposed code, and the
action of Speaker Reed was defended by
Baines of New York. Thursdays ses-
sion was her ended and the session OF
Friday opened. The journal vas APP
proved, the speaker counting a quorum.
The committee on the worlds lair sub
mitted a report which was ordered printed
and recommitted.
Consideration of the rules then pro-
ceeded. Bynum of Indiana offered an
amendment providing that when any bill
for the increase of a pension or for grant
ing pensions not formerly provided for
was pending it shall be in order to offer
an amendment providing by taxation for
the payment thereof.
Thomas of Wisconsin opposed the
amendment, declaring its object was to
bury all pension legislation in the house.
Spinola of New York controverted the
proposition and asserted the Democratic
side of the house would be found true
as steel to the real interest of veterans of
the country, but believed a tax should
be placed especially for paying pensions.
Allen of Michigan was glad this hien-
Gus amendment sprang from the brain of
a gentleman trained in Indiana politics
and belonging to that class of men who
we're peace men in war and war men in
peace. This proposition, disguised as it
might be, was intended to thwart any
attempt to alleviate the condition of
soldiers by any further pension legisla-
ton.
The amendment was rejected. &c to
l64.
Outhwaite's motion striking out the
clause constituting 100 members a quorum
in committee of the whole was rejected.
He pointed out that rule %, which reads:
Motions or propositions originating in
the house or senate, etc would by i'm
plication and against the constitution
acknowledge the right of the senate to
originate revenue bills. He moved an
amendment of this, which was adopted,
the speaker stating there had been no in
tention on the part of the committee to
make such acknowledgements,
The motions by Irish to strike out the
clause comforting upon the speaker power
to count a quorum and by Mills to strike
out the clause, no dilatory motions will be
entertained by the speaker, were lost.
Five o'clock having arrived the speaker
stated the previous question was ordered.
On the adoption of rules Springer in
CURED whether a motion to Iecommit
With instructions was in order and re-
ceived a negative reply.
The rules were then adopted by a strict
party vote. Yeas l6l, nays las. Ad-

A HORRIBLE MURDER.
Hiram Sawtille's Body Found
Buried in the Woods.
Suspicion that His Brother
Murdered Him
Chinese Capitalists Invest in a
Stamp Mill.
A Terrible Crime.

EAST ROCHESTER, n. H., Feb, IA
The!body of Hiram Sawtelle of Rox-
bury, Mass, was found to-day horribly
mutilated and with a bullet in his heart,
buried in the woods near Lebanon, Me.
Isaac Sawtelle, a brother Of the dead man,
is under arrest, charged with the killing
The case is one of the most interesting in
the criminal history OF New England.
Last December Isaac was pardoned for
rape, since then he boarded with his
brother Hiram. in Roxbury, Mass, where
the latter kept a fruit store. The Saw
tells property was worth $4,000 to
to $40, 900 and Isaac deceived his mother
and induced her to transfer it to him,
Hiram, however, put an injunction on it
SO that Isaac couldn't sell it.
This caused hard feelings and it is now
believed Isaac plotted to remove his
brother and his entire fauiily, consisting
of wife aud three children. Last Sat
urday Isaac took the little daughter, aged
s, to Rochester. n. II. There he gave
her medicine it is believed with the inten-
ton of kIlling her, but only succeeded in
making her sick. He telegraphed Hiram
that the little girl had the grippe and for
him to come Immediately. This was Feb.
4. The next morning another telegram
came urging the mother to come. Finally
Hiram left for Rochester on Feb. 5, and
was never again seen alive by his
friends.
Next day Isaac and the little girl ar
rived home. and the former denied hay
ing seen Hiram at all. The following
Sunday he disappeared, and Monday the
police began an investigation, and the
detectives discovered traces of suspicious
actions on the part of Isaac. He hired a
team at Rochester and met a man at the
depot Undoubtedly HIram), with whom
he drove away. Late in the afternoon
he returned, bought a pickaxe and spade
and drove away again, not returning until
late at night. He then went to Portland
and registered at a hotel under a fictitious
name~ Yesterday officers traced him
down and arrested him this morning.
His clothing was carefully examined
and blood stains were discovered on his
shirt and pants, showing evidence OF hav-
ing been washed. A searching party of
400 men secuted the woods to day and
found a shoe believed to have been worn
by Hiram. a bloodstained handkerchief
aud a piece of his coat. Soon after .
poorly made grave was discovered and the
body found, minus both arms and head.
Near by was found a paper which had
been wrapped around the axe bought ty
Isaac, The case appears to be a clear one
against him and he is supposed to have a
confederate. who is believed to be Charles
Blood, who was in prison with him.

Mime. PATHS sudden transformation
from brunette to blonde may be taken as
an indication of the coming hair dressing
fashions. Dark hair has been declared
impossible by the Messrs. Toupet, who
arrange the modes of the seasons colt
fures, and it therefore behooves all who
are possessed of dark tresses and desire
to be sin the fashion" to follow Nine.
PATHS example and convert themselves
without further delay into possession of
fair hair. Natural blondes will have the
advantage, so far as expense and COM
fort are c~oncerned; but in the matter of
appearance they will be no better off
than those who have changed color to
suit the requirements Of the hour, for
wig making has been brought to such
perfection as to defy the closest inspec-
ton. Consequently artificial hair will
be very much adopted this season, and
if we desire to follow in the train of the
exacting goddess of fashion we shall have
to submit to the uncomfortable, unpleas-
ant and unnatural arrangement of load

For The workingman.

BERLIN, Feb. l4.-The council of state
summoned in pursuance of an imperial
rescript, opened to-day. The emperor in
opening address said:
This council should endeavor to frame a
scheme for the protection of w~orkingmen
from the arbitrary systems and operations
Of employers by which gross advantage is
taken of their needs and their inability to
help themselves by any other means than
the desperate remedy of strikes. 1t should
also attempt to protect women and chill
dren against protracted hours of labor and
at the same time due regard should be
given as to how far German industry will
bear the increase of burdens thus placed
on the cost of production without jeopar-
dizing Germany's position as a competitor
in the markets of the world.
mot less important is the insuring of
peaceful relations between masters and
men are the forms Of guarantees to be Of
fered wofkmen to secure them the right
to express through representatives enjoy
ing their confidence their own statement
OF their interests in any difference. The
closest technical study should be given to
making state directed industries patterns
and examples of effective solicitude for
the ~workingman's wide field OF action in
helpful support and aid of what the law
shall ordain."

CHICAGO, Feb. IA conference of
great importance was held to-day between
two Chinese dignitaries and represent
atives of the big mining machinery firm
of Fraser & Chalmers in this city. The
result was that negotiations were formally
entered into looking to the construction of
a 300 stamp mill in the mountains of
China. The magnitude of the deal may
be understood when this mill is set up
complete; it will cost near 81, 900, 900.
This includes transportation, erection,
skilled labor, etc. The Chinese informed
them there had been discovered the rich
est and most extensive gold-bearing lead
in the world. The Chinese have known
for many years that in the mountains of
al Shan, IN the province of Shan Tung,
there has been gold, but not until a year
ago did they realize the extent of it, when
some one who had worked In mines and
mills in California began prospecting and
discovered a bonanza.
They erected a rude mill and from the
outset the product of gold was enormous.
They claim no ton of ore taken out has
yielded less than 500, while much of it
has gone into the thousand. The matter
was kent quiet and a stock company
claimed control of about eighty miles Of
land in the vicinity and the two Cinnamon
nov here were sent to this country to
make preliminary arrangement for the
purchase of machinery and also to float a
certain portion of the stock. Chu Ling
Klan and Tong Sing Kon landed in San
francisco two months ago and had no
difficulty in disposing of stock 10 wealthy
Cinnamon of that city.
From here they have gone to Wash
ington. In an interview one of them
said the gold property is on a peninsula
across the Corea sea from the peninsula
of Cnrea and directly west. 1t is, he said,
within sixteen miles of the sea coast and
not more than twenty miles from a good
port. They contemplate erecting the
finest plant in the world. During the
day there was a great hubbub among the
well to do Cinnamon at Chicago and fully
a score of them called at the hotel and
talked with their countrymcn. The Wis

LONDON, Feb. 14.-The Pail Mall
Gazette says the report of the special
commission is a more complete vindica-
ton of the Parnellites and a more sweep
ing condemnation of the Times than the
most sanguine Home Rulers ventured to
hope for. If the view of the Unionist
press is right that the report c~onvicts the
Parnellites as criminal conspirators, what
must the minister do with them2 They
cannot expel them from the commons.
On the contrary, they have promised
already to introduce a bill handing over
the local government of Ireland to these
convicted criminals.
The ministers must disassociate them
selves publicly from such views, other
wise they will find themselves in an EN-.
barrassing dilemma. The Gazette admits
the Judges honesty with facts presented
to them. but says they had prejudices.
They were impartial in their conclusions,
but have shown a marked part:ality in
their distribution of explosives in hurting
epithet after epithet at the Irish members
without uttering one disappearing word
for the forgeries of the Tories.
