John H. King, of the Ninth Infantry, who sits In the centre; Col. Wesley Mcrrite, of the Fifth Cavalry; and Lient.-Col. W. B. Hoyall, of the Third Cavalry. Yirst-Llcutenant Jesse M, Les, Adjutant of the Niuth Infantry, {s Recorder. Mal. Keno was present. Aside from those named there were in the room two or threo officers attached to Geu, Sheridan’s headqusrtats, who were lookers-on, Ali of them were fn full uniform, with swords, ua the decorum was as marked as that which charactorizes the United States Supreme Court. There were half & dozen reporters on hand to take down the pro- ceedings, and thelr prasence was the firat thing that occupled the attention of the Court. Whetner they should be permitted to remain or not was tho question, but s declsion was not reached at the moment, the matter being taken uuder advisement until the body was organized, NECORDEE LER then read the special order directing the calling ot tho Court by tho President. on tho avplicas tlon of Maj. Reno, and naming those who were to vonstitute lt—the officers mentioned. In auswer to an Inguiry, Maj. Reno sald he liad no objection to any of the members.

As tho Recorder was about to read the Adju- tant-Generat’s Jeeter, Mal. Reno arose, and safd 1t waa hardly in order tv put those documents in nt this tine, Tho Recorder did not propose to offer any- thing in evidence. but simply to read the lotters for the {ntormation of the Court. The Dyer case was o precedent. Mal. Reno had 110 objection to the reading of hin application, but he did object to the letter of the Adjutant-General. ‘Thy Recorder sald ho hiad no particular desire to read it.

WIAT BHOULD BE FOUND OUT. ‘Tne THIRUNE yesterday guve a complete and succinct review of tho miarch of the Beventh Cavalry from the day of {ts departure from Fort Lincoln, In May, 1870, 10 the memarable 25th of June folluwing, when it gave battle to the com- bined Bloux forces under Sitting Bull ou the banks of the Little Big Iforn River. Tho fncl- dents connected with that expedition under Ucen, Terry, and tho fnal disaster which over- whelmed five companies of the Seventh Regi- ment, bave been recited in detall, but ftungues- tionably remainy for a searching court of ‘lnqui- Iy, organized for the cxpress purpose of eliciting all of theminutest facts, to determine the right and wroug of the moveincents which were then made by the unfortunate commander of the regiment and the ofiicers to whom was given the duty of co-operating with him fi that unfor- tunate attack. Whethier Custor disobeyed ur- ders, and permitted his zeal und enthuslasin to run away with bis judgment; whether Keno willfully neglected to suceor uls comnander 1 lila hour of extrome perll; whether the day might have beeu saved to the troups, or the cotiro regiment aunihtlared, had the seven com- panles which made the fiual stand on Iteno's hill gone farther and been surrounded by savage theso ure questions which the closest scrutiny and most carctul welghing of testhnony must dgtermine to the publie mind.

Au_acquaintancs quickly sprang up belween the Colone! and the reporter, and a conversation upon the subject matter ensued. Mo atated that he had come hero cxnrmlj to tesilfy In tho Reno fuvestization, sod e had no smbition to tave bis testimony publtshied before 1t went to the cars of tho Commission. He had, however, no objectivus to auswerlng any reneral questions, He sald that on tho 25th of ‘Jung he came ,to the ground whero Reno was futrenched.

Reno 121 men, They were hedged in by Indwuns elght “or ten deep, outnumbvering the soldicrs threo or four tootie, and the reiskine stood off npon the hills uod cracked away at the troops with their nifies, groutly to the discomfiture of tho latier, until’ the 27th, when Terrv cumo up with his column, and the whote moved ucross the river.

Whon asked what he thought of the massacre of Custer, Col.

'The relnforcoments, Reuo naturally expected, would coute from 1hu rear of hls command, of course, but thoy dud not srrive, and butfor the timely uppearauee of Henteen Reuo would have shared a stintlur fate to Custer’s. Tno latter, {notesd of beine ata certaiu point ata certaln time, took a truil sbout seyen miles off around to thu right, was sur- prised sud cut tu pieces before ho hardly ki whero ho was, Col.
