First he was confined in Libby prison in
Richmond, Va, then transferred to
Belle Isle. Va, and from there to that
hell on earth, Salisbury, N. c., where
so large part of the Union prisoners
were starved to death. Yutzy was not
in very robust health when he was ex-
changed or released from Salisbury

lock Yesterday afternoon by sending to
the Senate nominations for all the
Federal Offices in Maryland now occu-
pied by Republicans, with the excep-
ton of the subtreasurer. Senators
John Walter Smith and Blair Lee are
both given recognition in the appoint
ments, and associates of the two men
say they will make no move to delay
confirmation of any of the names.

Carroll county.
Appraiser of Merchandise-Wal B,
Warner, of Baltimore.

By this appointment Senator Smith
is given the collectorship, the district
attorneyship and one of the appraiser
ships, and Senator Lee is given the
marshalship, the surveyorship and other

ert G. Hilton, of Montgomery county,
as sub treasurer, when the term of the
incumbent. C. C. Pussy, expires.
