The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1877-1900, 1895-12-05

Omaha. Neb., Nov. 27-Hon. George @.
Cannon, in an interview tonight, said
he was highly pleased with the work
of the Trans Mississippi Congress.
1.-THE Utah delegation" he said has
been treated with great distinction The
convention by a rising vote thanked
me for my services as president, and
the feeling toward the Utah delegation
shows that it made a favorable i'm
preston. This had something to do
with the selection of Salt Lake for the
next congress. Des Moines, Boise Hot
Springs, S. D., and Portland presented
their claims and urged that the next
congress be held in one of those cities
l arose and took the ground that 1t
to meet at place which would draw
the largest number of delegates from
the States and Territories, and thus
make the congress one which would
meet the needs we had In view. While
| did not urge Salt Lake, as we had
had ono aossion, yet the city would lie
glad to have the congress again, and
was centrally located. The proposition
was warmly received by the members,
Ex-Governor Prince and Mr.. Wolfenber-
ger making speeches seconding my mo-
ton. which was unanimously carried.
1.-The free silver resolution passed by
the congress-" Mr.. Cannon added, was
very similar to that adopted at the st.
Louis congress last year.

MAJOR ARMES'S CASE.
Governments Appeal from Judge
Bradley's Decision.

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 27-The
counsel for the Government in the
case of Maj George A. Armes, U. S. A.,
retired, whose arrest for insubordina-
ton, by order Of Maj.-Gen. Schofeld,
created sensation two months ago,
filed their brief today in the appeal to
the District Court of Appeals from the
decision of Judge Bradley, discharging
Armes from custody. The Government
sets forth that the lower court erred
in ruling that Armes was Illegally de-
prived of his liberty and that his ar
rest and confinement at quarters other
than his home were unlawful. The ig-
noring by Judge Bradley of the fact
that the penalty for the offense
charged against Armes may be, legal
ly, life Imprisonment, is cited as one
error on the part of the Judge.
1t is also claimed that the court
erred in assuming that Armes's
charges against Gen. Schofield were
true, or thought by Armes to be true,
and in ruling that the charges did not
constitute unbecoming conduct, as
either officer or gentleman, and preju-
dcial to discipline, and the contention
Is made that courts-martial have ex-
elusive jurisdiction In all proceedings
against military persons for offenses,
and it is contended that the civil
courts cannot reverse or review action
by proper military authorities and can
not relieve parties from the effect of
them by writs of habeas corpus. The
case will probably be argued next
week. a. IJiuy

CRISP RENoMINATEp.
Democratic Policy Touched upon at
the Caucus.

washington, Nov. 30-Sixty-two
members of the Democratic minority
met in caucus this afternoon to form
the Democratic organization and re-
nominate their officers In the last Con-
gress. Mr.. Culberson of Texas. who
mas held his seat since the Forty-fourth
Congress, was elected chairman of the
Democratic caucus for the Fifty-fourth
Congress, to succeed Mr.. Holman of
Indiana. Messrs. Robertson of Louisi-
ana and Rusk of Maryland were lect-
ed caucus secretaries.
EX-Speaker Crisp was named for a
third term by Mr.. Richardson of Ten
nessee. and the nomination was car
ried unanimously, with considerable en-
thusiasm. The other officers of the
Fifty-third Congress were selected as
the Democratic slate without opposi-
ton Selection of the three or four
minor officers whom the minority is
permitted to name YVES postponed.
In nominating Mr.. Crisp, Mr. Rich
ardson touched upon the future policy
or the party. He said that he had been
selected to formally name one who
had already been named in the hearts
OF ALL He spoke of the election of Mr..
Crisp to the Speakership of the Fifty
second Congress by the 240 Democrats
after sharp and brilliant contest, of
his election second time by the 2l5
Democrats of the Fifty-thlrd Congress,
and said they had met a third time to
honor him. "A small band of strug-
Cling patriots with full knowledge that
our declaration will be impotent."
why" he continued, this is not the
occasion or the place to inquire. | be-
lleFe 1t Ia not because any great num-
Der of those who have heretofore fol
lowed the Democratic standard have
deserted their flag. Our party has
heretofore buried in forgotten graves
every political organization that ever
commended against it, and we have an
abiding faith that 1t will do the same
with its present great rival. TO do so all
strife should cease in our own family,
and we should choose as leaders In all
the States and districts such fearless
and patriotic Democrats as the gentle
men we are about to nominate We
should inScribe on our banner the poll
cy and principle of the great trium-
plant Democracy; lay aside all new
tangled doctrines and continue the bat
tie for a reduction of taxation on the
people, to give them cheaper
clothing and supplies; to broad
| en- and make better markets
| for the products of our farms
and manufactures; to reduce the pub
! lie expenses; for greater simplicity in
our national affairs; for home rule and
| local government for an ample
circulating medium for our trade and
| commerce; for sound money, the gold
| and silver coinage of the Constitution
| and then the Democracy will be again
triumphant and the country will be re-
deemed and regenerated."
Mr. Crisp responded briefly, express
| ing his thanks. The best of feeling
prevailed, and there was no tendency
to bring the financial question forward
although the gold and free silver lead
crs were both present.

EQUIPMENT OF MILITIA.
Gen. Flagler Favors the Springfield
Rifle for Short Range.

Washington Nov. 27.-The most i'm
portant subject treated by Gen. Flag
Ter, chief of ordnance, in his annual
report to the Secretary of War, is that
OF forming and equipping the militia
of the United States. He calls atten-
ton to the insufficient appropriations
annually made for this purpose and
suggests that in the event Congress
does not provide literally for this i'm
portant branch of the country's de-
tense, 1t at least should make certain
changes in the present law, with the
object Of permitting the ordnance bu-
reau to replace the old arms now in
use with weapons of serviceable type
ana UNIFORM character. Gen. Flapler
SHOWS that the new rifle, while well
suited Tor long-range service, Is not so
well adapted for close range and hard
service as the Springfield rifle. His
conclusion Is thAt it would be better
10 retain the Springfield gun at present
during times of peace, while if war
should break out the well-drilled mil
tia could in two weeks time familiar
ize themselves with the magazine gun
lie suggests that he be authorized
to credit the States with the actua,,
Ndluc OF unSerViceable, obsolete and
Worn-out stores turned in; to issue to
the States such Springfield arms in ex-
change for other types as they may
nave in use, and that the States be
authorized to purchase most of the
United States arms and equipment of
regulation types at cost price
satisfactory assurances are given that
at last the army has produced a good
quality of smokeless powder for the
small arms, and it Is said the industry
has now so developed that all of this
powder required for war uses can be
produced by American manufacturers.
fhe Improvement of powder for large
guns has not, however, kept pace with
the development of the guns, and an
expert officer has been charged with a
special duty of the subject at powder
| mills, where the manufacturers are
lending him all the help possible In
his researches. Because of the diff
culties and danger of transporting pow
der to the Pacific coast, the department
has been making efforts with great
success to develop the facilities for its
manufacture on the coast
