REPRESENTATIVE OCHILTREE TO BE PatD Hs SAt- any.—Controller Lawrence, of the Treasury, has decided that the language of the Constitution providing that Senators and Representatives in Congress shall receive a compensation for their services 1s Imperative, and, therefore, that the Salary of Representative Ochiltree, of Texas, can- not legally be withheld because of his indebted- ness to the government. With regard to the two territorial delegates whose gccounts as United States disbursing officers have not yet been set- tled, Judge Liwrence hoids that they stand upon a different footing. Their offices are not created by the Constitution, but by statute. Therefore, their pay can be held as a set-off. This opinion Was transmitted to the acting Secretary of the Treasury, who decided to abide by It Hence, Mr. Ochiltree will get his pay the game as other iiem- bers of Congress. ‘THe Conprrion oF GEN.

The witness said he had looked for a check Mr, Merrick had asked about onthe German American bank, but had been unable to find it among the 14,000 checks he had. “Will you bring your bank book on that bank {nto court?” asked Mr. Merrick. “No,” said Mr. Ingersoll. “I will examine and see,” said the witness, ee does the counsel say?” asked Mr. Mer- Tiel “Tsay,” said Mr. Ingersoll, “that we will not agree to'1t.”” The witness sald he was not certain whether he had a Dank book on the German American bank or not. NOTICE TO DORSEY TO PRODUCE HIS BANK BOOK. Mr. Merrick gave witness notice to produce his Wank book and checks on the German-American ational bank, ‘The witness did not know whether there was a sum of $52.50 charged in his German-American bank book on July 2th, 1878 The witness sald he could not remember. Mr. Merrick then asked the witness if he would Froduce the Look showing’ his account on that ‘it depends,” sald the witness, entirely on what isin the bank books—what accounts. Tam not going to drag my outside business or outside peo- Ple into this case tf I can help i.” BOONE AND DORSEY. In reply to Mr. Merrick’s questions the witness Said the bank book would not show in whose favor checks were drawn, but disclose simply the amounts, The witness sald that she thought Boone's testimony, as to his interview with the witness about taking charge of the prenara- Uon of bids, correct, except the state- ment that witness agreed to give him one-third interest In the business. Witness thought he left that open, to be arranged when Peck and Joun W. Dorsey came. Witness told him that he should be pald for his trouble until Peck and John W. Dorsey came, and he had no doubt they would agree to give him one-third when they came, He could not conceive it possible that after six years and a half any two men could agree up- on the particulars of a conversation. PECK, MINER AND JOHN W. DORSEY. The witness sald when Peck and John W. Dor- Sey proposed first to go into the mail contract business he discouraged them, Witness did not think they had means enough to engage In such extensive business, and also that It would em- Darrass him (the witness) Peck. he thought, was Worth about £10,000 or $15,000. He did not know What Mr. Miner’s means Were. John W. Dorsey had kept a tinware and hirdware store in Ver- mont.from 1851 or 1852 to 1876. After that he had some business in connection with an agricultural concern. ‘Mr. Merrick asked what agricultural concern he ‘was employed with. “{ don’t know,” sata the witness. “You will have a chance to'ask that of him.” “I will have a chance to ask that of him, will 12” d Mr. Merrick. es, sir,” sald the witness, “I am glad of that,” said Mr. Merrick, ‘The witness having stated again about Boone’s statement, remarked that Boone had stated at the last trial, ’he thought, that it was to be lett to J. W. Dorsey and Peck to arrarge his interest. A REMARK BY MR. BLISS, Mr. Bliss here arose and sald that one of the coun- sel behind him (evidently meaning Mr. Ingersoll) had plainly said, before the witness gave his an- swer and 50 the witness could hear him, “That is what Mr. Boone safd at the last trial.” “That bus! hess,” said Mr. Bliss, “ought to be stopped. It is not the first or the tenth time that it has oc- curred.” “Colonel Bitss,” sald the witness, “This witness 1s not a parrot.” JUDGE WYLIE SAID that there were certain matters the court must trust to the sense of propriety of counsel. He observed that there should be no reference at this time whatever to the testimony of Boone at the last trial, ‘The counsel for defense disclaimed any Intention to prompt the witness. Mr. Ingersoll sald they had been looking over Boone's testimony, and ail he sald to his colleagues was: “ That 13 not the Place; look here.” ‘The witness sald he had no recollection that John W. Dorsey was employed in an office under the Senate in 1877. “Do you recollect,” asked Mr, Merrick, “ ever writing to him and’ telliug him to come’on and draw his salary 2” “Now you remind me,” said the witness, “1 think he was employed there for a short time.” ‘The witness did not know in what office he was employed, or ever seeing him about the Senate, He did not know whether Mr. Curtis, of the Chic cago Inter-Ocean, then chairman of the Senate District committee, drew John W. Dorsey’s pay for him or not. ‘WHEN WITNESS WROTE TO POSTMASTER CLENDENIN toapprove bonds in blank, Clendenin declined, saying that he considered it unlawful. ‘The wit- ness did not belleve that that was Clendenin’s rea- son for declining, but thought 1¢ was because he could not get the bondsmen. ‘The witness was not familtar with the law on the subject. He did not know that the bonds were sent in blank, because Mr. Boone had fixed them up. Tue withess was asked how he came to write to the witness then to fill only certain blanks. The witness suid he wrote What Mr. Boone told him. ‘The witness dld not make any inguiry as to whether Clendenin was right or not. ‘Phe bonds were not made and he did not care anything about it. ‘The witness wrote to Clendenin to send the bonds to John B. Adams, at Little Rock, Was he @ postmaster?” asked Mr, Merrick. ‘No, sir,” said the witness, ‘Wiiat Was he?” asked Mr. Merrick. ‘A gentleman,” sald the witness. “aren't postmasters gentlemen?” asked Mr. Merrick. “Sometimes,” sald the witness. Adams, the witness sald, Was editor of a deme- cratic paper. The witness satd he had sent bonds to ex-Gov. Hadley, postmaster at Little Rock, who did not agree ‘with Clendenin, for he madé the bonds. At the time witness sent the bonds to Adams he (Adams) had some steamboat mail con- tracts and he bid at tne same letting for which the witness intended these bonds to be used. Mr. Merrick asked the witness why, when he was so careful to enjoin Clendenin to secrecy so as. not to let_ competing contractors know, he had immediately sent the bonds to Adams, a’ compet- tng contractor? ‘The witness said that Adams was not a very ex- tensive bidder. : ‘The witness was cross-examined at some length as to his injunction of secrecy in the letters to Postmasters Clendenin and Haycock. He insisted that In telling Clendenin not, to let any one know “from whom they (the bonds) caine,” and in telling Haycock not to let any one know “that I have written on this subject,” he meant only to keep contractors from getting knowledge that they would have competition, ME. INGERSOLL OBJECTS, ‘Mr. Merrick desired to question the witness upon a letter which he desired to read to him. Mr. Ingersoll objected to his reading the paper before the jury until he (Mr. Ingersoll) had read it to the witness privately. ‘Mr. Merrick sald the govern- ment was subjected to peculiar disadvantages by the infirmity of the witness, and argued that he had a right to incorporate the letter in his ques- tion to the witness, Judge Wyle, In passing upon the question, sald that It was proper that the paper should be read to the witness quietly by his own counsel, who was his representative in court. He thought the accident of biindness was equally injurious to both sides. DORSEY'S LETTER TO CLENDENIN. ‘When Mr. Ingersoll had read the letter to the ‘witness the latter said he had written it. The let- ter was dated December 234, 1877. This letter was addressed to Clendenin, and stated that he had asked him to meke the bonds for A. E. Boone;that Boone sdid that it was not necessary for him to sign the certificates as he would have that done by Judge Edmunds; that if he did not get the bondsmen to send the bonds to S&B. Adams, and that Postmaster Edmunds, who had much ex- Perlence in these matters, did not agree With him (Clendenin) that what he had been asked to do was unlawful. ‘The usual noon recess was taken, Star Houte Notes, The printed stenographic record of the star route trial reports Mr. Dorsey’s answer to Mr. Merrick’s question as whether ,he could see to lay billiards, as “Oh, no, sir.” It was understood Eras press reporters as *‘Oh, yes, sir,” aud It was. reported in the papers in that form. i ResicNep.—Henry Bohn, igs Of life saving station No, 7, Golden Gate Park, C: has fesigned on account of ili health, amioraiss CiarmIne HALF 4 MILLION.—The Great Western Insurance Company, of New York, through their attorneys, filed a petition to-day ripe Ricci ‘Claims Inst the United States recovery $500,000, the amount of their claim Telegrams to The Star.

The hanging was witnessed by not over fitty persons. The circumstances of the crime were peculiarly atrocious. The two children of Mr. G. A. Hunt, While on their way from school, and nearly home, were stopped by Beaner, who assaulted the eldest. He was seen by their parents while running away from a fence corner, he having in his haste left a Part of his clothing behind. He was captured in endeavoring to hide in a hay mow, and taken be- fore the children who Identified him. The, father, With much forbearance, notwithstanding the im- portunities of his wife to execute summary ven- geance upon his prisoner,carrted him to Hilisboro’, and there Justice Gaver committed him for trial. He was lodged in jail on the 6th of September by Constavle Grubb. On the following night about fifty mounted men came into town to lynch the prisoner, but they were prevailed upon to aban- don their purpose, HIS TRIAL AND CONVICTION. At the October term of the county court he was Indicted, and at the January term of the ctreult court he was tried before Judge Ketth—Capt. J.W. Foster representing the state, and Messrs. Mat- thew and Pollock the prisoner, ' The evidence was irresistible, and the verdict was guilty. Judge Keith passed the sentence, naming to-day, be- tween 6 and 8 a.m., as the time for the execution, For some tme after his sentence Beaner appeared indifferent, and was evidently hoping for a re- prieve or commutation, but for a month or more Past he had been growing more serious. HIS RELIGIOUS PREPARATION. Rey. R. T. Davis, of the Episcopal church; Rev. Samuel Rodgers, of the M. E. church south, and Rev. Messrs. Love (M. F.) and Tilghman (Baptist), colored, had visited him quite frequently. Some three weeks ago be professed forgiveness of hi sins, and his conduct since bass change. The jaller, Col. J. L. Nixon, some weeks ago, at the request’ of Beaner, allowed a fellow- prisoner to share huis cell with him, and they have | Spent many hours readiug the Bible and conyers- lug together. Beaner was a well-crown boy, of more than ordinary intelitgeuce for one of his age and race, and could read well and write a fair hand. He was reared in a white family, Notwithstanding his profession of religion he had not, up to yesterday afternoon, admitted bis guilt, nor had he explicitly denied It! When ques- Uoned on the subject of the crime Le would, Up to yesterday, evade a direct answer. sterday morning he received visits from the colored ministers (Itevs. Love and Tilghman) and Rev. Mr. Rogers. His fellow prisoner (Deunts Gil- bert) during the day had been talking to the pris- oer. and soon after dinner the prisoner sent for ‘Mr. Pollock, to whom he made a statement, AN INTERVIEW WITH THE CONDEMNED BOY. Yesterday a representative of Tur Stam had a short interview with Beaner, In which he spoke of his father and mother, sister and brothers having visited him last Sunday. His eyes were teartul when he sald: “I then bid them good bye, and told them to meet me in Heaven.” He remarked he had been reading the Bible; that he was sure that God haa pardoned his sins; that he had felt the great change while engaged in prayer about three weeks ago. When tne reporter asked, “How about the crime, Charles?” he answered, “I don’t feel lke talking about that.” The reporter re- marked, “It won't be right to goon the scaffold and die it you are guilty without making It known, That will be Mving alle.” For half a minute or more the prisoner was silent, and. being pressed for an answer sald, “Yes, it 1s true about the ciime. I did what was sworn to.” Other visitors then entered the cell, among them Mr. W. Mat- thew, of his counsel, and Mr. B. F. Sheets, of the Mirror, and he signed the following statement, which ‘Mr. Matthew had written out from notes dictated by him BEANER'S CONFESSION, = the Public: <b Charles William Beaner, now under sentence of Geath in the jai! in Leesbu va., and fully expecting the sentence to be executed by the officers of the law on to-niorrow, desire to say that I am guity of the crime for which I was tried and convicted, and I admit sub- stantially all the facts proved aguiust me on the trial of my Case.
