fore one OF the largest audiences which

BROOKLYN, March 24.-The presence
of Admiral Stanton, with Lieutenants
Wslling, Lyman and Brainerd, wit
nesses for the prosecution in the court
martial of Commander Heyerman, re-.
moved the obstacle which has for three
days stood in the way of the proceed
ings, and the work Of the court began in
earnest today. The taking Of testimony
was begun by calling Lieutenant Charles
L. Lyman, late navigator Of the Kear-
sarge, who, ct the court Of inquiry held
few weeks ago, testified that the posi-
ton OF RoncadoE reef, as shown by the
charts, is several miles out Of the way.
Admiral Stanton testified as to the
events of the day Of the wreck, and in
reply to question from q member OF
the court, said that in his opinion Com
mander Hsyerman had paid strict at
tenticn to his duty on board the ship.
Lyman having been recalled, testified
that it Was in pursuance Of his calcula-
tions and advice that the course of the
Kearsarge was changed at :15 p. M,
and the ship thereby wrecked. He ad.
vised the change, because he believed
the ship had cleared the reef.
Lieutenant Brsinerd testified that
Commander Heyerman had been at all
times alert and attentive to duty.
After some corroborative testimony by
other witnesses Judge Advocate Kelly
stated that these apprentices who were
stationed as lookouts when the Kear-
sarge went ashore had been given leaves
of absence and could not be found. They
were to have appeared for the prosecu-
ton.
The court then adjourned until Mon
day at 10 80 8. m.

The Postoffice Appropriation Bill Under
Confederation.
WASHINGTON, March 24-The lack oil
quorum today prevented the passage
of q number OF bills for which unanimous
consent was asked.
The house went into committee Of the
whole, and with about so present took
up the postofics appropriation bill.
Loud of California presented the min
ority report against the item of $l96,6l4
''for necessary and special facilities on

Cannon (Rep.) OF Illinois criticised
some of the reductions made by the bill.
The amount appropriated for railroad
transportation, $25. 100000. 81, 400, 900
less than the estimates, he predicted
would be inadequate, and would have
to be met next year by deficiency ap'
preparation.
Kyle (Dsm.) OF Mississippi who signed
the minority report against the appro-
prietion for special mail facilities, then
took the floor in opposition to this pro-
position. General data was enclosed,
except upon this item, for special mail
facilities and the bill was read by para
graphs for amendment under the FIVE
minute rule.
Bowers (Rep.) of California moved to
reduce the appropriation for rent, fuel,
and light of first and second-class offices
from $845, 900 to $445,000. 1t was de-
feated, as was also his amendment to re-
duce the appropriation for miscellaneous
items for fret and second.class Offices
from $40, 900 to $4,000.
Morse (Rep.) OF Massachusetts, offered
an amendment to set aside 20,000 for
the purpose OF free delivery experiments
in rural districts, others than towns and
Villages. The amendment was agreed to.
An amendment by Piokler was also
adopted, directing the postmaster-gen
eral to report to the next congress such
measures ss may be deemed practicable
for extending the mail service to rural
districts and their probable cost.
The committee then rose, and at 4:20

BROOKLYN, March 24.-Justice Walsh
issued warrants today for the arrest OF
Vincenso de Vilo, an Italian banker OF
