the years delay on the part Of the Preident

subordinate and for Attorney General
Miller to answer for Marshal
Airey and his subordinates, and
for Secretary Foster, who can tell why the

would be unwise 10 oppose the consideration
Of the case. This determination robbed the
opening of the contest in the House OF
special interest, and left the ultimate de-
cision Of the House still in doubt. Senator
Hill is counting largely on pairs for success.
Mr.. Rockwell said to-day: There will
be seventy pairs when the vote is taken.
That will make l31, a majority OF the re-
naming impaired votes. Now l have 1876
votes personally pledged to me and think
ought to get between now and the time the
vote is taken as many more as l need"
Chairman O'Ferrall does not think
that Senator Hill has secured 1875 pledged
votes for Mr.. Rockwell or that Mr. Rock
well will get as many as he needs.

to the Troops.

to the Troops,
WASHINGTON, April 10.-The rustlers'
trouble in Wyoming was the principal topic
Of discussion at the meeting of the cabinet
to-day. All the members we're present ex-
cept the Secretary of the Treasury aud the
Attorney General. The situation in Wyo-
ming is regarded as serious, In view of the
fact that the feeling against the prisoners in
charge Of the military is very bitter. and
also because of the freely expressed
threats Of desperate men chat they
mean to avenge the killing OF
Champion and Ray at the first opportunity.
No word has been received from Col. Van
Horn and his captives at Fort Mckinney
since Saturday morning, when he tele-
graphed Gen. Brooke at Omaha that he
would start that day for Douglass to turn
his prisoners over to the civil authorities.
Gen. Brooke, department commander at
Omaha, expresses himself as having no fear
about Col. Van Horns command getting
through safely, and Gen. Sohoheld
said this afternoon that he felt no
uneesiness on account of the soldiers.
as there was no reason why they should be
attacked. and even If they should be, he was
confident of their ability to protect them-
selves and their prisoners. 1t was his
private opinion, however, that the troops
will accomplish their purpose of taking the
prisoners 10 a place Of safety without en-
oountering any serious opposition. 1t is
undersLood that orders have been given to
re establish telegraphic communication
with the scene OF trouble as soon as possible.

Bee from Casper, Wyo., says It is reported
in Casper on good authority that the United
