Confederate Roster.

The report of Gen. Ainsworth. chief of the record and pension office of the war department, shows that the call from the secretary of war for Con federate records has been responded to with alacrity by the governors of all but three states. one of the three being Missouri. The secretary has no authority to insist upon the pres entation of these records, but made the request of the fifteen governors of states which furnished the bulk of the troops to the Confederacy. Con gress by an enactment of last ses sion, authorized the compilation of complete roster of every officer and enlisted man in the service of the Gonfederacy. The war department did not have the complete records in its possession, so addressed the gov ernors as indicated, with a suggestion that some official already in the em ploy of the respective states should be charged with the duty of collecting the records from Confederate veter ans associations. A special commit tee is now engaged in gathering the information in Arkansas.

 Mir. Roberts was the only witness yesterday in the Blair case before the grand jury.
 As the alleged forgeries and other misdeeds were committed more than three years ago. the statute of limita- tions will apply to the case and pro hibit prosecution.
 What Became of Money.
 "The people are probably interested in knowing what became of the vast sums of money that Mir. Blair is ac- cused of having got away with during the last few years Mr Blair is cur rently reported as carrying life insur- anee that costs him $20,0 annually He also had to pay the interest, as it fell due, on the bogus loans, otherwise his crime would have been discovered long ago With the amount of the Blow estate. S63. 200. and that of the Dick matter, S340000, the total en-
 
 Der cent. on this would amount to $20,- 900 annually. Add to this family eX- penditures of about $25. .000 a year, and you have a total annual outlay of about S65,600 It is hardly believed that, running over a period of seven years, his income from his law prac- tice was averaging more than $20, GOO a year That would make the net de- felt every year about $45 900, or, in the last seven years, about $215,000 He bought his country home from Mrs. Georgia Myers Coppell, in 1898, giving s30,000 for the place. and eXpending a like amount in improvements. The furnishings of the house. which are eie- gant and are in splendid taste. are said to have cost him s40,o0O. This would account for almost $400 900 of the de falcation, 10 say nothing of his losses on the stock market. which, it is al leged were considerable.

 James L. Blair denounces Mir Rob CTS statements, as outlined above, as a tissue of falsehood woven about few grains of fact He denounces Roberts aS an ingrate, whom he. for years, sup ported out of pure charity, and asks that the public suspend Judgment pend ing a judicial determination as to their truth or falsity.
