An E Explanation. ‘To the Editor of Tux Eventxe Star: Sir: Certain statements in the New York World of yesterday seem to us to require modi- fication. Opinions are therein stated to have been expressed by a member of our firm con- cerning Frank T. Brown, esq., an examiner in the patent office. The offensive portion of the statement is apparently a quotation from a former publication, with which we had no con- nection, and was used so as to convey a different impression from that intended. The statement Was written by the reporter from recollection, and not taken down during the interview. Simple justice to Mr. Brown requires us to my that while we have always freely criticised Official actions. we have never doubted his fair ness or integrity, and we have always found him liberal in his actions on the merits of the question, after formal and technical objections were removed. Batpwry, wrx. Davipsox & Wionr. Gaaxtep a New mesa —In the case of Rich- ard Williams, convicted December 20 of the larceny of household goods from the house of W.

SWAIM. Meeting of the Board to Examine Him for Retirement. THE GENERAL QUESTIONED—HE THINKS HE IS CAPABLE OF DOING DUTY IF RESTORED—EXAMI- NATION AND REPORT OF THE SURGEONS—THEY FIND INDICATIONS OF KIDNEY DISEASE. The board designated by Secretary Endicott to examine Judge-Advocate Gen. David G. Swaim for retirement met at 11 o'clock this morning in the old office of the Secretary, in the north wing of the War department build- ing. The members of the board—Gens. Benet. Holabird, and Macfeely, and Drs. Baxter and Greenleaf—were present in fulluniform. Lieut. Chase, of the third artillery, in his capacity as recorder of the board, began proceedings by reading the Secretary's order convening the board “for the purpose of examining for re- tirement such officers as may appear before it.” He then read a letter from the adjutant-gene- ral to Gen. Swaim ordering him to appear before the board for examination. GEN. SWAIM EXPLAINS. Gen. Swaim arose and said that he wished to explain that he appeared before the board in citizens’ clothes because of his anomalous posi- | Th Lone) eA mges rth er t to the ‘This explanation’ brought forth ap- eae nods from the penal ae of the board, who were then sworn by the recorder. He, in turn, was sworn by Gen. Benet, the 2) ipa ip Lieut. Chase asked Gen. Swaim, sat ina large arm-chair at his side at the lower end of the table, whether or not he appeared before the board of his own desire, or —— out of obedience to the order from the adjutant- general, GEN. SWAIM'S LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT. Gen. Swaim said that he should like to read, in reply to the question, a copy of a letter which he addressed to the President under date of January 12, 1888, in which he requested the President to personally inspect the record “= his case. He was convinced That in no other could the President become impressed wi the true merits of the case. “I in no wise ask,” he continued, “for mercy or favor, but only for that justice that is the so of Faikpeed 4 American citizen. I submit that my trial conviction were not authorized by law nor jus- = by the facts.” ale tothe letter said: ‘What I de- is vindication; second, to go upon = retired of the army. In this view I should be personally tified if, instead of having to gather up fog reins of the judge- advocate-general’s vace, now for some years out of my hands, I. on ‘being restored to my | rank, should go before a retiring To the board he said that after justice had been done him, whatever followed would be a secondary matter. THROWN FROM HIS HORSE AT THE BATTLE OF CHICKAMAUGA. Gen. Holabird then asked: “Do you con- sider yourself to be to-day incapacitated for active service,and if so please state the injury?” “T can't say that I am,” was the reply. “At the battle of Chickama Iwas thrown from my horse when rl was shot under me. I fell mo nag yo on my back and side. At the time I did not consider the injury very serious, yet, for i two or three months, whenever I would get on a horse the least jog- ging would throw me into great pain and it would be impossible for me to speak above my breath. Afterward, however, I suffered no in- convenience from the injury, except when greatl depressed or poisoned with malaria, when great pains in my back. At the time of my trial, when I was under great men- tal strain, I felt this, which Dr. Norris said was “spinal irritation.” ' Once or twice he seared my back with a hot iron. Since then I have had no trouble, and now I feel in good health.” SAYS HE 18 NOT UNABLE TO PERFORM BIS DUTIES IF RESTORED. “Do you believe your disabilities at the pres- ent time are such as to make you unable to per- form your duties were you restored to your oe on the active list?” asked Gen. Mac- leely, “No, sir!” was the Rr ompt reply. Dr. Baxter asked him about certain sick leaves mentioned in Gen. Swaim’s military rec- ord which was placed on record, and “Gen. Swaim said that sick leaves during twenty- seven years of service would not exceed ninety days, and then detailed, as far as he could re- member, the causes of the various leaves. Gen. Macfeely asked him if at any time he had been incapacitated for active duty by reason of the injury received at Chickamauga. The reply was that he both had been and had not been, The explanation was that at the time before the trial, when he was suffering great mental distress, he was so seriously affected by the old trouble that he thought that his duties would have to be neglected in consequence, and at one time was near to requesting that he be ex- amined for retirement. Other than on that occasion he thought that he should reply in the negative. The recorder asked Gen. Swaim if he de- sired to be represented before the board by counsel, as he was entitled to. “I don’t think thatIcare for counsel,” re- plied the general, smiling. A LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS from the adjutant-general to Gen. Benet was read, in which it was stated that the President is in possession of information that Gen. Swaim is suffering under disabilities entitling him to retirement, and that he wishes the board to carefully consider the case and determine ex- actly as to his physical condition. Some discussion arose as to the necessity of a physical examination, Gens. Benet, Holabird pis lacfeely thinking that there was nothing to do butfor the medical members of the board to examine Gen. Swaim. Dr. Baxter thought, however, that the expression in Gen. Drum’s letter of instruction to the effect that the President was informed as to Gen. Swaim’s disability was sufficient to enable the board to dispense with the examination. A PHYSICAL EXAMINATION. It was finally decided to take a recess suf- ficiently long to enable Drs. Baxter and Green- leaf to make a physical examination of Gen. Swaim with the view of determining as to the extent of his disabilities, and the doctors took the general upstairs at 11:45. REPORT OF THE EXAMINING SURGEONS. The two returned to the board-room in just an hour, and resumed their seats. Dr. Baxter handed a paper to Gen. Benet, which he read in silence, passing it to Gen. Macfeeley, and then to Gen. Holabird, each of whom read without a word. The recorder then took the Sp and swore the two medical officers that aper contained a true statement of their b= nce before the board. Their report was that, on examining Gen. Swaim, it was found, upon an analysis of his urine, that there were conditions that pointed to A DISEASE OF THE KIDNEYS, and they requested a delay in the proceedings of twenty-four hours to make a more complete analysis, Gen. Macfeely asked the medical officers if from the examination they found any incapac- ity for active service at the present time, and if they thought it necessary to make this further analysis in order to determine as to the incapacity. Dr. Baxter replied that the analysis they had already made pointed to a ricion of disease. that suspicion is confirmed would Gen. Swain be found to be incapacitated?” asked Gen, Macfeely. “He would.” ADJOURNED TILL TO-MORROW. It was decided to adjourn until to-morrow afternoon, when the medical officers will re- port the result of the more complete ‘analysis. Dr. Baxter then said that he wanted the board to give him and Dr. Greenleaf certain ee = Gen.

A few days before Christmas Thos. Moore, of Yorkville, @ small town near Utica, N. Y., dropped into McKenzie’s saloon for a glass of beer. While in the place he saw a parcel lying on the counter, which was wrapped in a copy of the New York Sun. Being of a studi- ous turn of mind, Thomas im: ed his oppor- tunity and read’ the paj eo Wile ties an ged his eyes accidentally ‘fell on a telegram ted Baltimore, which said that one Michael Moore, aged seventy-eight years, had. died in- testate, leaving a fortune estimated at $1,000, 000. The young man, thinking there might be something in it, tore out the piece containing the item and put it in his pocket. He didn't say anything about it for three or four days, en he asked his father if he ever had any brothers living in Baltimore, and, if so, whet their names were. The father replied that he had one brother who lived in Baltimore, and his name was Michael. It was then that Tom showed his father the scrap. The old man, whose name is Jno. Moore, tl hought seriously for a few minutes, and then he said that it must be his brother Michael. Father and son talked over the subject of how best to proceed in the matter. Of course the news that old John Moore, whom every- body knows in Yorkville, was liable to fall heir to a large fortune left by a deceased brother, spread quickly around the village, and for a ime it was the main topic of conversation. Mr. Moore is a widower, his wife having died some six years ago. He lives with his son in a one- story house beside the canal. A sister of Mr. Moore, Bridget Lawler, lives a few rods from her brother's house. Besides the sister there are six brothers, who are all married except one. and they are scattered around the country. There were eleven children in Mr. Moore's family, of whom two are dead. Of the remain- ing children, four are living inf New Mexico, three in Yorkville and two in Utica, By request of John Moore the Hon. Joseph dourond wrote to the postmaster of Baltimore for some particulars, and asked the name of some good attorney who would look up the facts in the case. An answer was received from a lawyer, in which the name, age and other questions of the expectant heir of Michael ‘oore were requested. It is believed by those who have looked into the matter that Moore will get the property. He earns a scanty living by doing odd jobs. Se eee ena Three Women in the Field. THE TENNESSEE STATE LIBRARIANSHIP SETTLED AFTER A WARM CONTEST. ANashville special to the New York Herald says: The democratic legislative caucus reas- sembled this afternoon to nominate a state librarian to succeed Mrs. Sue P. Lowe. Twenty- five ballots were taken altogether, ten having been cast yesterday. Mrs, Lowe held the lead from the start, while Miss Hattie Barclay was second and Miss Gertrude Pillow Haynes third. On the twenty-fifth ballot it became clearly evident Mrs. Lowe would be selected, and the scene became rather exciting, members of the caucus gathering in groups and standing all over the house. The name of Miss Barclay was withdrawn, and on the grand finale it was ra Mrs. Lowe was nominated by eighty six. Mrs. Lowe was elected to the librarianship two years ago. She is widow of a confederate soldier who served in General Robert Hatton's fourteenth Tennessee regiment, and who died as clerk and master of chancery court, Robert- son county. Cipla =a Sequel of the Wahalak Riot. LAWLESSNESS IN MISSISSIPPI WHICH THE GOY- ERNOR IS TRYING HARD TO PUT DOWN. It is reported from Jackson, Miss., that law- lessness still prevails in Noxubee and Kemper counties, Mississippi. It grows ont of the Wa- halak troubles of a few weeks ago in the north- ern part of Kemper county. Those troubles grew out of the killing of three white men by a dozen or more negroes. The governor is in- formed that “avengers” are still wreaking their vengeance upon the negroes. Much of the lawlessness is committed by irresponsible sons. The better class of citizens have cal lea on the governor for assistance to stop it. Gov. Lowrey wrote to the sheriff of Noxubee county to call out a sufficient force to put down the lawlessness and to send a special messenger to the sheriff of Kemper county, the two officials to act in concert in the vicinity mentioned; to have affi- davits made, to arrest all guilty persons Vga ame to communicate with the governor y wire, and to send to him the bill for all ex- tra ——— incurred.
