THERE MAY BE OTHERS.
The Case of Captain Carter May Lead.
Others Into Serious Trouble.

WASHINGTON, August 29.-Attorney
General Griggs is expected to return to
Washington tomorrow, but it is possible
that he may not reach here until next
Monday No one here knows when the At
torney General will make his report on the
Carter court martial case to the President,
although there are persistent intimations
that it will be made soon. There is some
ground for the belief that the Attorney
Generals report when it is forthcoming
will be much broader than has heretofore
been intimated. 1t is said in some quarters
that it will not only deal with the case of
Capt. Carter, as shown by the record, but
will point out the connection of others with
the case and direct special attention to
them. This, if it proves true, will account
for the long period the Attorney General
has given to the consideration of the case
The record is exceedingly voluminous and
the labor and time involved in it's examina-
ton simply on its bearing of Capt Carter
alone would be immense. Following out
its qualifications as to others would require
much additional labor and time
