Reminiscences of the Johnson-Stan- ton Controversy—How ex-Detective Coomes Hunted for a Regiment Found Only One Man—Ex-Detectiv: Miller’s Werk in Running Down Groundless Rumors. Mr. J. W. Coomes, well known as @ detective in years past and now one of the officers de- tailed on the White House grounds, was a member of the police force during tae talk asto the impeachment of President Johnson. “George Miller was detailed at Grant’s head- quarters then,” said Mr. Coomes to a STAR re- porter a day or twoago,“and he had me de- tailed also, I was to report to Gen. Emory, which I did every morning, sometimes both of us, Miller and myself, going up together. There was a time, however, when we did not report every morning, for sometimes I had to go out of the city. Living as I did near the marine gar- rison and having been in the navy off and on since boyhood, nothing was thought ot my go- ing in the barracks daily when in thecity. One partof my duty was to watch the barracks, which I did every morning especially. I see that Major Richards had Milstead looking after the marines, and I reckon it was during the day and evening. My tour there was early in the morning, and I never saw anything there to in- dicate that any movement was contemplated, but you know that with marines as with sail: ors, they must be always ready.” “I understand,” said. the reporter, “that you hunted up a regiment of cavalry which was being organized ner Frederick?” ‘Yes, pricked that bubble.” answered Mr. Coomes with @ laugh. “News was received here, I believe, by some railroad conductor that the people in the neighborhood of Frederick were organizing, and I was sent to ascertain if the report was true. I took a train and went to Harper's Ferry, arriving there in the evening, carefully looking about the Monocacy for any signs, bat Ifound noneeither there or at the Ferry. At the latter place everything was dead. The next morning I went to Frederick. Here I met a party who knew me, and he was Very anxious to know what I wai after, and I told him Iwas tracking some horse thieves, He took me in tow and showed me about the place, for he thought that that was my first visit, and during our rambles he sald that a soldier had been in town and while drinking had said something about aregimentof cavalry taking the town. Taking a note of this I made other Inquiries, and found that a regular cav- alryman bad, while on @ drunk, intimated Niecterae about a regiment of cavalry, and like the old story of the three black crows, the story had grown. until the railroad man heard that a full regiment had been raised and equipped to follow the fortunes 02 Andy John- son, I left that night or next morning, and the next day reported to Gen.

Emory laughed heartily when I made my report, but did pot seem surprised that the report had dwindled down to nothing. Krom time totime I continued to report to Gen. Emory, but was unable to inform him of any moré warlike demonstrations in Maryland.” EX-DETECTIVE MILLER'S RECOLLECTIONS, “Yes, sald Mr. George 0. Miller, who was for. merly @ detective, “I was on duty at Gen, Grant’s headquarters during the impeachment trial of ‘Andy’ Johnson. I was detailed by Major Richards at the personal request of Gen. Grant, and during that time I reported to Gen, Grant and to Gen.

I remember now,” continued Mr. Miller, “that a report reached Gen. Grant that there was a lot of rough-look- ing men in South Washington supposed to be regular pirates, who were to do some desperate deed in the interest of ‘Andy’ Johnson.

Loxvox, Nov. 7.—The eventot the week in foreign affairs is the public humiliation of Prince Alexander by the ezar. This, bad enough in itself, is made much worse by the wording of the Russian official order. Instead of the usual word meaning he had dispensed with his ser- vices the czar employed one having a disgrace- ful meaning, “struck off.” Such action is highly significant. It shows, first, that Kussia has given up hope of Alexander ever being any- thing but hostile to_her and the ruler of an in- dependent principality; second, it foreshadows: the probability of the conference breaking up in dissension, Prince Alexander holds similar commands in the Germanand Austnan armies, but these countries have taken no steps against him,which means much. The proposal that England shall withdraw from the conference which is made in certain quarters here, espe- cially by the Daily News, is most mischievous, ‘Mr. and Mrs, Rule have returned to the city from their northern trip and are now atthe residence of Prof. Fristoe, 1434 N street. ‘The Czar recently sent Minnie Hauk the cross of the Russian order of St. Anne, in token of her success at Prague as Manon Lescaut, ‘The old Carroll mansion, at the corner of 18th and F streets has been rented for the winter to Mr. and Mrs. Pell, of New York, General and Mrs, Robert 8 Granger, who usually spend at least a portion of the winter here, are at the Ebbitt.
