DR. BODK|N IS DEFIANT.
He InferS That the Court Martial
Has Been Fixed" by
Daniels.
The Surgeon of the Bear Will Now
Bring the Case Before Secre.
tary Carlisle.

DR.. T. P. Bodkin says the court-martial
in the case of Lieutenant Daniels and
Dorry is trying to whitewash them. He is
the chief witness against the accused. He
created sensation yesterday by refusing
to answer the questions asked him while
on the witness stand and charging the
court with being biased.
DR.. Bodkin was the surgeon on the Bear
during trip to the north. He was en-
ployed at $125 month simply for the trip.
He was much in the company of young
Daniels, and in his official charges filed
with the naval and treasury authorities
AYERS that he found the officer to be gay,
frovolous and even degrading at times;
that Daniels got drunk, and other
wise acted in manner unbecoming an
officer of the United States revenue service.
Lieutenant Ross is defending Daniels
and it was with him that DR.. Bodkln had
the war of words yesterday. Ross had
asked the physician several questions
which had been prepared by DR.. Blue,
who had testified that the accused had not
suffered from nervous disorder, ana the
witness had refused to answer them. He
told Ross that he did not know what he
was talking about. Ross got mad. So did
Bodkin, and if the court-martial could
have adjourned and cleared the deck there
would have been well-regulated 'scrap."
DR.. Bodkin is not connected with the SER
vice, so he can speak freely. He said:
am not getting square deal in the investi-
CATION of the charges against Daniels and
Dorry. The officers are "whitewashing" the
case. Lieutenant Reynolds does not know how
to conduct an investigation. He never made
an objection to a question propounded to a
witness by the defense, no matter how detri-
mental it might have proved to the proseeu-
tion's case. The charges of drunkenness have
already been whitewashed. In my letter to
Secretary Carlisle, | mentioned occasions in
Oonalaska, Unga, Sitka and Port Clarence
when these officers were intoxicated. The
court has stated that these occasions referred
affairs, but they have virtually dropped the
charges as to Daniels and Dorry's conduct and
intOxication when they had not attended
social affairs. / am disgusted at the manner
in which this matter has been conducted.
Ex-Carpenter Kane of the Bear testified
that Daniels had been intoxicated on
numerous occasions. On June 8, 1895,
when the revenue cutter had reached the
island of Unga, the lieutenant was very
drunk, and left the Bear flourishing
bottle of whisky about his head. He (the
lieutenant) went all over the island sing
ing in wild and insane fashion. DR..
Bodkin sustained the evidence of the car
penter. The testimony was to the effect
that Lieutenant Dorry was SO drunk
on June %, 1895, that he had to be carried
from the quarterback to his bunk and cared
for until he got sober.
The sudden retirement of DR.. Bodkin
was the sensation of the day. He declares
that he will bring the charges directly
before Secretary Carlisle

What was done last Saturday
night was practically done with four votes.
The city of San Francisco cannot do other
wise than fndorse the action of this meet
ing
Mr.. Dare then read the following resolu-
ton, which was adopted by seven afhrma-
tive votes:
WHEREAS, The Republican State Central
Committee of the State of California, at its
meeting held on the Goth day of February,
1896, did adopt resolution to the effect that
the members of the State Central Committee
from each Congressional district in which
there is no Congressional committee should
have power to appoint a committee of seven
persons from the residents of such district
to act as Congressional committee thereof
in whom should be vested all the powers given
to such Congressional committees by the Ma
tional Republican Central Committee, and
whereas, on the evening of the said 29th day
February, 1896, portion of the members
of the State Republican Central Commit
tee from the Fourth Congressional District
attempted to hold a meeting Of che members
of said State Central Committee from the said
Fourth Congressional District, and to appoint
said committee of seven persons, as provided
in said resolution, without having duly or at
all notified the other members thereof to be
present at said meeting; and whereas, the full
membership of the said portion of the State
Central Committee were not notified of the
time and place of said meeting and were not
present thereat either in person or by proxy
and said meeting and the proceedings had
thereat were therefore illegal and void, be it
therefore
Resolved That the action taken at said meet
ing be and is hereby rescinded, and all pro-
ceedings and acts of said meeting are, and are
hereby declared to be null and void and of no
effect, and that the appointment thereby OF
the seven persons to serve as Congressional
committee for the Fourth Congressional Dis
trict be and is hereby revoked, recalled and set
aside, and be it further
Resolved, That the following-named seven
persons, resident in the said Fourth Congress
sional District, be and they are hereby ap-
pointed as the Congressional Committee of the
said Fourth Congressional District, with all
of the powers vested and to be vested
in such committees by the resolution
of the National Republican Committee
of December IA, 1895, and by the
resolutions of the State Central Committee
passed at the regular meeting thereof on
February %, 1896, to wit: Nicholas Ohlandt,

1t Will Give a Grand Exhibition at the
Pavilion This Year.
The Pacific Kennel Club held large
and enthusiastic meeting last evening at
the Occidental Hotel.
A communication was received from the
American Fox Terrier Club, requesting
that the Pacific Kennel Club intercede with
the American Kennel Club and ask that
body to vote against resolution which
prohibits the docking of dogs.
No action on the matter was taken, be-
cause the request was received too late for
the secretary of the club to instruct its
delegate in New York to comply with the
request.
The committee on bench-show affairs re-
ported progress. The club looks forward
to the cost successful exhibition of high
class dogs that has been seen in this City
since the Inauguration of dog shows.

Tho News From Africa Plunges the

The Italian colony of San Francisco was
plunged into mourning yesterday by the
sad news of the disasters in Africa. All
dav little other news was discussed in the
Latin quarter and the local Italian papers
devoted almost their entire space to en-
larging on the event.
Commenting last night on the disaster
L'Italia says: at is lamentable above all
for the poor victims uselessly and perhaps
criminally sacrificed; our poor brothers,
and why. 1t is lamentable for the unfor-
tunate mothers of Italy, who to-day, as we
write, are weeping for the deaths OF their
loved ones, or worse still are tormented
by doubt as to whether their sons have
sufferings that the wounded may be suf-
fering alone perhaps, or i'll cared for on
the horrible plains of the Dark Continent"

THE CHITTENDEN MONUMENT.

In company with Hon. NJ. A. Bingham, a
member of the executive committee to make
arrangements for the dedication of the
Chittenden monument at Williston, a rep
resentative of the WATCHMAN visited, this
week, the cemetery where the monument
is erected. The executive committee is
made up of Hon. G. w. Brownell and Gen.
eral W. l.. Greenleaf Of Burlington, Hon.
M. A. Bingham of Essex Junction and DIR.
A. L. Bingham and Fl. S. Johnson of Will
liston. This committee met at the monu-
ment this week to complete the arrange
ments for the imposing, dedicatory ceremo-
MES, which will take place Wednesday af-
t%ernoon, August 10. General Greenleaf
will act as chief marshal, ex. Governor John
l.. Barstow of Shelburne will be president
of the day, and the Grafton will be delivered
by Ex-Governor j. w. Stewart of Middle
bury. Governor Woodbury. and staff, four
companies of the First Regiment, N. G. ",
the Fuller Battery, a troop of cavalry from
Fort Ethan Allen and the Montpelier Mill
tary Band, the regimental band at muster,
will take part in the services of dedication.
A full description of this splendid monu-
ment appeared in the columns of the
WATCHMAN at the time it was shipped from
the sheds of Mari & Gordon at Barre. 1t
stands on an eminence in the cemetery at
Williston, that has long been distinguished
as the last resting-place not only of YER
mont's first chief executive, but of very
many of the earliest citizens of the state,
including Revolutionary heroes whose
headstones can be located on every hand in
a stroll through the shaded enclosure. To
the eastward Cancels Hump and Mansfield
stand like sentinels, while to the west the
spires of Burlington and the blue Adiron-
dacks beyond can be plainly seen. Willis
ton was once a bustling, thriving village,
and in the days of stage-coaching between
Burlington and Montpelier was a busy,
growing place. The building of the Central
Vermont railroad, with its station two miles
away, has changed all this, and to-day its
grass-grown streets, and quiet, broken only
by the passing OF an occasional team or the
daily arrival Of the stage from the station,
gives it a delightful air of pastoral quiet and
pure rest. The visit of he state officials
and dignitaries, the militia, cavalry and
artillery and the crowds of people from all
parts of the state who will gather there on
August 10, will indeed make it an event
from which, in future, all history Of this
quaint, delightful hill village will date.

South Woodbury., July 10, 1896.
In the nature of things, charges OF the
corrupt use of money in a political cam
yass are difficult to substantiate by
legal proof. These transactions are
not made on the house tops. The pub
lie is not called in as a witness. 1t Of
ten happens, nevertheless, that a thing
is true, is known or believed or felt to
be true, that could not be proved under
the rules that govern in II court of law.
Where there is a cloud of smoke there
must be some fire. Certain charges
have been publicly made and names
and particulars placed at the disposal of
the person most directly interested.
They have not been called for. Certain
gross frauds of a political character
have been charged and the evidence Of
their preparation is clear. 1t is not
necessary to repeat the details. People
will not demand that all this mass of
evidence shall be sifted in a court of
law before it shall be entitled to cre-
dence, and people will exercise their
right to believe or disbelieve, to credit
or discredit what has been charged, &C
cording as they have knowledge of
facts and circumstances, or according
as personal or partisan bias may infu-
ence them. There is neither necessity
nor wisdom in holding the scourge over
any who feel aggrieved by the develop
ments of the means and methods en-
ployed to procure a majority IN the late
convention at Burlington. If any, for
conscience sake, feel that they cannot
vote for Josiah Grout for governor, their
course, under the circumstances vitality
affecting the national interests, should
be not to vote the democratic ticket nor
to refrain entirely from voting. The
candidate for acknowledgements was
chosen by reclamation. The candi-
date for secretary of state, for treasurer,
for auditor, each is an honorable man
of proved efficiency and integrity. Nc
faint attaches to their nomination,
Vote for these men, each and all, and
thus discharge your duty as republicans
and give support and encouragement to
the supreme cause of national repub-
licanism in its gravest crisis since its
first great triumph in 1860.

$50, 600. The motion of Mr.. Blanchard that
the plans be not accepted was carried. and
the next article in the warning, to see II
the city will vote to raise a tax or issue
bonds in payment for the building OF said
city hail." was dismissed.
When the article in the call ito see If the
city will vote to purchase any other prop
erty for its use, and provide for the pay
ment of the same" was reached, Fred
Blanchard favored purchasing the Golden
Fleece property. This was opposed by f..
L.. Laird, who said this old straw had been
threshed again and again. Mr.. Laird IA
vored building a city hall of some kind for
the reason, II for no other, that at all future
city meetings, special or regular, somebody
would spring this chestnut regarding the
purchase of the Golden Fleece property.
On motion of Mr.. Laird this article in the
warning was dismissed.
The fifth article in the warning was " to
see If the city will vote to authorize the
City Council to advertise for bids for light
ing the streets for one year or more, the
bids to be received in the month OF August
and the contracts awarded to take effect in
March following" On motion of s. II. o.
Bosworth the Council was so instructed
without opposition. f. l.. Laird favored
Mr.. Bosworth's motion and thought that by
80 doing the city could save enough to pay
the interest on the cost of a fine city hall.
Mr.. Laird referred to the fact that there are
at present two competing electric light COM
panies in this city, and that while this had
reduced the cost Of lights to private indi-
viduals nearly one.half, the city is still pay
ing the old price for street lighting.
When the business mentioned in the
warning was practically completed it
dawned upon the voters that there was no
article in the call that would give them a
chance to vote directly upon the question
whether or not a city hall should be built,
and that was what hundreds present wanted
to do, On motion of J. A, DeBoer il was
voted that the Council be instructed to call
a special city meeting at the earliest posi-
BILE date to see If the city will vote to buil6
a city hall, to nan a maximum sum the
voters are willing to pay for said hall, il
they vote to build one, n to see if the city
will instruct the Council to contract for tn,
erection of the same. However, unless tn,
members of the Council change their minds
this call is likely to be deferred for tn
present.

Satisfactory Words from Mr.. Hobart.

When the Hon. Garrett A. Hobart
was nominated at st. Louis for vice.
president, one of the first messages of
congratulation he received was from
Mrs. Hobart in Paterson. She tele-
graphed to her husband in this pretty
fashion:
Ruth 1: xvi"
The formula employed by Mrs. Ho-
bart has no relation to the ratio of one
to sixteen, or sixteen to one. 1t simply
indicates the well-known text in the
Bible wherein Ruth says:
"Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return
from following after thee; for whittier thou
goest, l will go; and where thou lodgest, I
will lodge"
There could not be a more graceful
way OF saying that Mrs. Hobart is will
ing for the sake of her husband to re-
linquish the quiet comfort of domestic
life in Paterson and encounter the
tribulations of what is called official So
ciety in Washington.
That there is no sixteen to one in
Mr.. Hobart's creed is fully proved by
his speech in response to the announce
ment OF the republican notification COM
mittee. In the course of his brief re-
marks he said:
"Gold is the one standard of value among
all enlightened commercial nations. All
financial transactions of whatever charac-
ter, all business enterprises, all individual
or corporate investments are adjusted to it.
An honest dollar, worth one hundred cents
everywhere, cannot be coined out of fifty
three cents worth of silver, plus a legisla-
tive fiat. Such a debasement of our cur
