AGAINST THE CONTRACTORS.
p,sTRICT ATTORNEY ERWIN d.
RECTED TO PROCEED.

c.,,.s. determined Upon After Con-
suItation Between GrisEs and
uoot--Contracts on savannah Har-
bor and Cumberland Sound VIII
Re AnnulIed-Matter Surrounded
br Profound secrecy-New Con-
tracts VIII he Made.
Washington. Oct. 2.-(SpeciaD. United
s,s,ss District Attorney Marion Erwin, for
me southern District of Georgia, has
been instructed to begin legal proceedings
ae7inst the contractors implicated in the
co.. of capt O. NJ. Carter.
This course was determined upon after
q consultation between the Secretary of
War and Attorney General Griggs.
,rao most profound secrecy surrounds
the matter at the Department of Justice
and the War Department, the details of
the prosecution of Messrs. Greene and
GUnor being unobtainable at present.
II is understood that secret instructions
have been sent to District Attorney Err
win. carefully framed, so as to prevent
anv miscarriage of justice.
The prosecution of the contractors will
be accompanied by the speedy annulment
Of the pending contract for the improve
ment Of savannah harbor and Cumber-
land sound.
Al the War Department it is said that
Gen. Wilson, chief of engineers, has al
ready submitted to the Secretary of War
q proposition looking to a resumption or
the work at those points. The pending
contracts viii he annulled, and new bids
will De asked for.
1t is held that the conviction of Capt.
Carter jusifes the setting aside of
tae contracts with the Atlantic Contracting
Company.
II is probable that the company will put
up a stiff legal fight for the amount of
money Claimed to be due for work already
performed, but withheld in consequence
of the disclosures during the trial of
Capt Carter.
