sTUCKEY ON THE STAND.
Tells of Certain Financial Transac.
tiOns by Hail.

DULUTH, Mimi, March 23.-The de-
fendant was on the stand all the morn
ing in the celebrated Stuckey case. The
evidence was for the most part the
same as on the first trial. There were.
however, two or three new matters
that cut quite an important figure in
the case, as they bear on the pIausi-
b1lity Of the reason assigned by Stuck
ey for his acceptance of the $500 from
Hall, and his flight the same evening.
Attorney Nethaway asked the wit
ness about contribution of $100 which
Hall had made to certain politicians
campaign fund from the State banks
moneys, with view of showing that
Hall was doing something for which
he would fear an investigation Ar
bury was willing to admit the contri-
button. On the cross examination he
brought out the fact that it was con-
tributed to State Treasurer Koerner's
campaign fund. Asked as to the reason
for the contribution, witness replied
that 1t was to keep the treasurer from
pressing the bank too hard in case it
didn't have enough money on hand to
meet its drafts. Then Arbury asked
if he knew of any more shady transac-
tions on account of which Hall feared
he had made contribution of 81, 900
some years ago to State Treasurer
Robleter's campaign fund.
The county attorney brought out that
Mr. Thorson, of ST. Paul, the second
largest stockholder and one of the di-
rectorS, knew of the contribution. For
a third shady item, Stuckey referred
to the StuntZ mortgage loan of $4,000,
in which Hall had extorted usury. He
was asked if he did not know that
loan had gone into Judgment, and re-
piled in the affirmative

HOW NOT TO DO IT.

The avidity with which both houses
of congress seize upon topics for dis
cussion involving questions discon-
nected with the domestic policy of
the United States finds a ready eXpla-
nation in the fact that they are
at loss to know how to dispose of
the remainder of the session without
doing or saying something that might
election. They are all at present
earnest students of the noble art of
how not to do it. This is the reason,
also, for the earneStness, at which
many people have wondered, with
which Senator Sherman keeps insisting
upon presenting the Cuban resolutions
to the senate day after day, and con-
suming weeks of time in a useles dis
cussion of them. All that congress
can do on the Cuban question it has
done already. Each house has passed a
resolution declaring, in slightly differ
ing terms, it's belief that the insurgents
should be recognized as belligerents.
The power of congress ceases there.
Such action can be taken only by the
executive, and it will not make the
slightest difference to that department
whether congress talks for five hours
or five months on the subject
1t is clearly a waste of time, there
fore, to consider the Cuban question
further. But to waste time is the pur-
pose dearest to the hearts of Republic
an senators and representatives at
the present moment. They do not want
to do anything. They do not want to
any practical measures of legislation.
They want to go to the country on the
basis of a lot of spread-eagle speeches
on our foreign policy, and with their
purposes as to the tariff and currency
reform as indefinite as they now are.
The greatest embarrassment under
which they suffer is the necessity Of
spending several weeks yet at the ma
tional capital. A certain number of
hours have to be consumed each day
in legislative session. The most harm
less use to which the party leaders
think that this can be put is to talk
about Cuba in the intervals Of passing
enormous appropriation bills, and
looking with a kindly eye upon Mica
ragua canal and Pacific cable subsidy
jobs They have made up their minds
to do nothing, and are pursuing that
end diligently. But they have not the
courage to announce it boldly and go
home

JUDGE BUNDY NAILS A LIE.
Never Used the Sentiment His Enc
mics Attributed to Him.

To the Editor of the Globe.
An article appeared in Saturdays issue of
the Milwaukee Telegraph accusing me of say
ing in 1877, 'the time will come when John
Wilkes Booth will be more thought of than
Abraham Lincoln
This entire article, from beginning to end,
is so obviously and ridiculously false that if
consulted my own inclinations only 1 should
ignore it entirely, believing that my long resi-
dence and extended acquaintance throughout
the circuit would be sufficient to protect me
against such charges; but believing 1T to be
due to the electors of the circuit, and par
ticularly to those upon whose call am in the
field I take this means Of answering the
charges therein made.
The charge that | ever said, to any person
at any time that the time would come when
the name of Booth would be more thought of
than that of Lincoln is absolutely and un-
qualifiedy false in every particular. | never
expressed or harbored such a thought; but, on
the contrary, felt, in common with all my
countrymen, and have repeatedly expressed
abhorrence of that awful crime which robbed
Lincoln of his life and our country of its wise,
loyal and patriotic president very much re-
gret, that after forty years of residence in this
Gil cult, and nineteen years on it's bench, !
should feel called upon to say that L feit that
grief common to all patriotic citizens and to
DENY that l sympathized with the most das-
tardly crime that ever shocked our country.
