Are QuaShed.
One of the Jurors Was an EX-
Convict and Was Disqualified
From Serving.

SAN BERNARDINo, Jan. "a large
crowd of interested spectators were in at
tendance in the Superior Court this morn
ing, with Judges. Otis and Campbell SIT
ting in bank, when Sheriff Booth and ex-
Sheriff (now SENATOR Seymour appeared
TO plead 10 five indictments each for per-
jury. which were found against them by
the recent Grand Jury.
A large array of counsel appeared on
both sides. the defendants being repre-
sented by Byron Waters. w. A. Harris.
r. +. Bledsoe and f. E. ROwell and the
State by District Attorney +. f. Oster and
his assistant. l.. Nj. Sprecher.
The defendants moved to set aside the
indictments on the ground that no vote
was taken upon them, that twelve of the
jurors did not concur in finding the indict-
ments, and that w. j. BOdenhamer. an in
competent and disqualified person, was
allowed TO be present while the Grand
Jury was celebrating on these cases. 1t
was also moved TO set aside the indict-
ments on the ground that the Grand Jury
was nullity, by reason of the fact that
w. j. Bodenhamer. member Of that
body. had previously been convicted of a
felony.
A. j. DOwner, a member Of the Grand
Jury, was sworn as a witness ana testified
that the only vote which was taken was on
the len indictments 10 question, and that
he did not know at the tine the vote was
taken that more than one Indictment had
been passed on. II. B. Snull. foreman of
the Grand Jury, was called by the State
and said that but one vote was taken on
the ten Indie tments-fye against Booth
and five against Seymour. The indict-
ments were not in the hands of the Grand
Jury when the vote was taken. but were
drawn up afterward, and the witness did
not know whether the contents of the in
dictments were ever read to the jury after
the indictments we're drawn. he said that
motion was made 10 reconsider-eight
voting for reconsideration and ten against
1t. there being only eighteen members pres
ent at the time.
|. w. j. Bodenhamer was then sworn and
testified that he had been convicted of a
felony and served two sentences in prison,
one for embezzlement of public funds
while receiver of the United States Land
Office at Springfield. Mo-, for which he
had been pardoned. The other was for
larceny from dwelling. for which he was
sentenced TO the Missouri State peniten-
tiary at Jefferson City. For the latter
sentence he received no pardon, but had
received certificate of discharge for good
conduct.

Although the Administration Is With
Him the Judiciary Committee
Is Clearly Hostile.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 25.-Following is a
copy OF a letter written to Hon. Case
Broderick of the House Judiciary Com
mit;ee by Attorney General Oiney:
Sir: 1t Will be practicable for the department
10 comply with The resolution as amended-that
is. by directing The United States Attorney for
the Southern District of California 10 take
charge Of cases on behalf OF settlers, or by the
employment of special counsel for that pur-
pose. OLNEY, Attorney. General.
Mr.. OlDey transmitted a copy of the
amended resolution, as follows:
ReSoEred by the Senate and House Of Rep
reseDtaliVes, that the United States will assume
the defense OF settlers in cases brought against
them by the Southern Pacific Railroad Com

United States. by The United States Attorney
for the Southern District OF California, or by
counsel specially appointed, is hereby author
lied and directed 10 appear for said settlers ID
said cases, and TO do all acts and things neces-
sary and proper TO defend the titles of said
settlers under their patents Of lands from the

Mr.. Bowers gave out the following state

The resolution directing the Attorney
General TO appear for settlers in the rail-
road cases was, two weeks ago. referred TO
the Attorney General for his opinion. He
promptly replied to the Judiciary Commit
tee that his department could attend to it,
and suggested some amendments to the
resolution, making it even stronger than
the original. The resolution was brought
up again in committee On Tuesday. The
subcommittee unanimously reported in
favor of its adoption, but it at once met
opposition on the ground that it would lead
to many applications for the Government
to Interfere in other cases, and it was
feared that the United States might be
held responsible in all defective titles
This last objection was most potent. aud
the resolution was laid over with the I'M
Outstanding il would be taken up again at
the next meeting of the committee.
The subcommittee hopes to amend the
resolution so as to remove the objections
of the committee. but Mr.. Bowers is not
sanguins that the committee will report
the resolution fayOrably. Each step so far
in trying to get the resolution before the
House has been like pulling teeth. though
it would seem that after the Interior De-
partment had shown the necessity and
justice of it there could be no reasonable
objection 10 reporting it, and the motives
OF the Judiciary Committee will be criti-
ciZed sharply by many people.

TOO MANY AGENCIES.
CIVILIZED Indians Have No Need of
Resident Agents.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The House
committee on Indian Affairs was ad-
dressed to-day by Thomas Donaldson,
Special Agent of the Census Bureau, who
has Investigated the conditions of life
among the Indian tribes and who recon-
mends the abolition of twelve agencies.
Those which he would abolish are the
SIX Nations of New York. the Eastern
Cherokees in North Carolina, the Lapwai
OF Idaho. the Pueblo of New Mexico, the
Rounc Valley of California, the HooDa
Valley of California, the Siletz of Oregon,
all the agencies in Washington, Wise,
Colville. Near Bay, Puyallup, Tulalip and
1akahama; Quapaw Of Indian Terri
tory, Usage of Oklahoma. Sacks and Fox
OF Iowa. all the agencies in Minnesota and
all in Wisconsin.
Some of these agencies were recon-
mended to be abolished ten or fifteen years
ago. Some of the Indians are nearly civil
lied, and the duties of the agents, Donald
son thinks, could be performed by inspec-
tors from the Indian Office.

SOLDIERS FOR EGYPT.
England Determined to Resort to

The khedive Has Grown Refractory

LONDON, Jan. %. "A sensation was
caused this afternoon when 1t became
known that the Government was deter
mined to act eneTgeticaily in Egypt. At
Aldershot a detachment OF military,
mounted police and some of the best cav
airy in the army. with ono or more in

The Government is trying to secure num-
Der of large ocean steamers for use as
troopships 10 convey them there.
1t has been apparent to shrewd obser-
vers of European events for some little
time past that the alliance of France aud
Russia, for it is n alliance, was more of a
menace to England than to Germany.
