They divided into two sub-committees —Judge Buckner and General Albright to investigate matters in the Interior of the state, and Messrs. Coburn, Cannon and Luttrell, to investigate matters in the city of Mobile. Albright and Buckner concluded their inquiries in Mobile Monday night and left for Livingston. The other sub- committee closed at Mobile last night, and will proces to Montgomery at once.’ The citizens of Mobile, being very greatly dissat- isfied with the course pursued by the major- ity of the committee in the investigation of the matters committed to their charge, have resented to Mr. A. Luttrell a protest against e course of investigation which had been thus pursued, and which was signed by a very large number of the business men and firms of the city.

Witness E \s + to Washington and t Stowell at the 7th street wharf. He ac- eos apt witness and niece to the Balto and O. depot. where they were to take the train for the north. The witness there privately gave Stowell $500. He told Stowell what the money was for. He no other pecuniary transaction beyond this with Stowell, except in cases involying only a few dollars. Some time after this witness and Stowell came to- gether from Richinond to Washington, and in the course of the conversation Stowell asked him when the by nee of the one thousand collars would be paid. Stowell remarked unless this was paid he would Withdraw the cadet desiguation. Arriving at Washington, Stowell s fa he was going west by way of New York. Subsequently witness went to Dr. Beatty, who gave him a ck for $700, from which witness placed to Stow- ell’s credit with Jay Cooke Co. $310, mak- ing $510 he had given to Stowell. Witness acquainted Stowell with what he had thus done, and Stowell acknowled: the receipt of the letter conveying the information. This was on the l0th of June, 1873, Stowell being at St. Paul. Witness never turned over to Stowell the balance of $190 to complete the $1,000 which Stowell had uired. eo wit- ness said he had spent considerable money in the payment of expenses of delegates to a polidcal convention in Virginia, ete. Stow- ell and himself several weeks ago had a pri- vate conference in Richmond, when Stowell asked him what course he intended to pur- sue. Witness said to Stowell that, as he been called a blackmailer, he to make to the Committee on Naval irs a statement of facts as they were, and to tell them where there was other evidence.
