THE GREAT STEAL,

HA V I men faiu.
The report of the Potter committee,
which was presented late loot evening,
makeft eighty-five pages of cioely print
ed matter. It is carefully arranged,
treating with each subject separately
and in detail. The conclusions of the
committee are arrived at, and the evi
dence supporting them referred to in
marginal notes. The first twenty-seven
pages are devoted to the theft of Flor
ida ; and at the conclusion is appended
a list of- the men who were engaged in
the steal, and who have been rewarded
by the chief beneficiary with ollioe.
The rape and theft of Louisiana occupy
the next thirty-one pages, tho relation
of the facta being admirable in arrange
ment and convenient for reference.
The list of rewarded thieves appropri
ately followft the fttory of the crime.
The next seventeen pages are devoted
to a description of the forgery of the
l,ouisiann electoral certificates, the ac
tor* and their reward. Following this
is the general summing up of the com
xnittee, for which alone can we find
space at the prcsont time. It is styled
the recapitulation, and is as follows :
First—The power to appoint electors
of President and Vice-President for the
states of Louisiana and Florida was
I legally and constitutionally vested in i
the people thereof.
Second—This power was duly execut
ed in 1876. On theday, in the manner,
and at the places described by law, the
ballots of the people were tnken and
counted, showing a clear majority of
seven thousand for the Tildeu electors
in Louisiana.
Third—This majority was wholly
made upot voters legally qualified, their
right to vote being subjected to the |
scrutiny of hostile registrars and com j
missioners, appointed by their enemies
for every polling place.
Fourth—The election was free and
peaceable. There is no proof or pre
tense that intimidation was practiced on
the day of election.
Fifth—Nor were the people prevent
ed by intimidation, or any cause, from
assembling at the polls. All allegations
to the contrary are effectually disproved
by the undisputed fact that the vote
was larger in proportion to the popula
tion than at any previous election ever
held in the state —larger than in most ,
of the other states where elections were
held the same day, and where every
exertion was mode to bring out tho
last man.
Sixth—The Tilden electors were thus
"duly appointed'* by the people, who
alone bad the right and power to ap
point. This thing was not done in a
corner; it was seen and known of all
men. The act of appointment was im
mediately placed on the public records
of the several parishes. This fact was
as indisputable as any other in history.
Seventh—The legal, just and con
stitutional effect of this appointment
upon the Presidential election could be
avoided only by falsifying the act of the
people; that is to say, by fraudulently
altering the election returns in such a
manner as to make them apja-ar like
an appointment of other persons instead
of those who in truth and in fact were
appointed. This was tho crime by
which the authority and will of the
people were defeated in the case under
consideration. A crime—considering
the extent of the corrupt combination
required to carry it through, the vast
chain-work of Irauds, false pretenses
and perjuries connecting it together,
and the magnitude of the rights preju
diced by it—of the highest magnitude.
Eighth—The agents of the Republi
can party sent into the state to get its
electoral vote for Mr. Hayes were among
the ablest and most conspicuous men in
their organisation ; they were designat
ed for this service by the then Presi
dent, and many of them were known as
the intimate friends of his successor.
These men, notwithstanding that the
Tilden electors had been fairly, peace
ably and legally chosen by a large ma
jority of the people at a full |>oll, en
couraged, by their presence, the fraud,
falsehood and crime by which the vote
was used to elect Mr. Hayes. They af
fected to believe that the returning
board had legal and constitutional pow
er to set aside the appointment made
by the people, and make another ap
pointment themselves; they pronounc
ed the warmest encomiums on mem
bers of that board who bore characters
notoriously bad, and they distinctly re
fused to unite with Democrats in an
effort to have an honest count made of
the votes actually cast and legally re- ,
turned by the proper offioera of the
election.
Ninth— No direct evidence has re
vealed whet bargain was made in words
or in writing with members of the so
called returning board ; but we cannot
doubt that they did their corrupt work
with the understanding that they
should not onlv be protected against
public justice, but rewarded for their
villainy. This pledge has been kepi.
When Wells and Anderson were indict
ed, Federal officers at. Washington in
terfered with the administration of
state law at New Orleans, and those
same men and the others who gave
their active assistance to the perpetra
tion of the fraud have been quartered
on the public Treasury, and the people
whom they have defrauded are made
to pay them for their crimes.
Tenth—All the foregoing propositions
of fact apply nomin* mutato to Florida as
well as to Ixroisiana.
The majority in the former state was
not so large as in the Utter, but it was
decisive and well attested. The ap
pointment made by the people was
frustrated and altered in a like way
under the instigation of "vi -tiling states
men" of the same class, and was follow
ed by similar reward.
The fraud was aggravated in Florida
because the oenvaaeing board had no
power under their statute but that of
mere olerks, and their Supreme court
' had expressly so decided; and because
all the departments of the state, judi
cial, legislative and executive, protested
against their action as not only false,
but a mere usurpation.
The necessary effect of a successful
and prosperous falsification of the choice
-,r #
of the people for the chief magistracy of
the country is to tempt all those who
profit by the wrong, and those who suf
fer by it, to adopt the like corrupt
methods on future occasions.
CONCLUSION.
Finally we report:
First—That duo effect was not given
to the vote of the electors unpointed by
the state of Florida at the Presidential
election of 187f>, by reason of false and
fraudulent returns for the said electors
by the canvassing board of tiiat slate,
whereby the choice of tho people of
that state was annulled and reversed,
and that tho action of tho board of
state canvassers in making tho returns
was countenanced ami encourged by,
among others, the Hon. Edward F.
Noyes, who has since been appointed
the minister for this country to France.
Second—That due effect was not
given to tho vote of the electors ap
pointed by the state of Louisiana at
the Presidential election of 18"6, by
reason of the false and fraudulent ac
tion of the returning board of that state,
whereby the choice of tire people of that
stale was annulled and reversed ; and
that tlie action of the returning Imard
was countenanced and encouraged by,
among others, the Hon. .John Sherman,
who has since been appointed secretary
of the Treasury.
Third—That a conspiracy existed in
the state of Louisiana whereby the Re
publican vote in all tho precincts of the
parish of East Feliciana and in some of
the precincts of West Feliciana at the
general election in November, 1H76,
was purposely withheld from the polls
to afford a pretext for the exclusion by
the returning board for that state of the
of the votes cast in those precincts for
electors for President and Vice-Presi
dent.
Fourth—That two of the signatures to
the second certificate of the electoral
vote of the state of Louisiana returned
to Congress and referred to the electoral
commission were forged ; and that
William Pitt Kellogg, then governor of
that state, and now a senator of the
United States, and 11. Conquest Clark,
his private secretary, now a clerk in the
Treasury department, were privy to
such forgery.
Fifth—That Samuel J. Tilden ar.d
Thomas A. Hendricks were, and Ruth
erford B. Hayes and William A. Wheeler
were not, the real choice of the majori
ty of the electors duly appointed by the
several states and of the persons who
exercised and were entitled to the
right of suffrage at the late general
election in the United States.
All of which i respectfully submitted.

JUDGE PEARSON DECIDES TIIAT TIIET CAN
NOT BE FAID OUT Or A DECEDENT'S
REAL ESTATE.
Fr>xn l! ffarri*) org f'*ttio<, M*fb ?.
In settling up the estate of Daniel
Hocker, deceased, a resident of this
city, his executors tiled their account
at the last session of < ■ridtans' court, in
which thtiy took credit lor the payment
of funeral expenses and medical atten
dance during his last illness, which
amounted to about 9140. The balance
exhibited by the administrators was the
proceeds of the sale of real estate be
longing to deceased, sold under an or
der from the Orphans'court. The liens
against the real estate were more than
sufficient to absorb the whole balance.
Exceptions were filed to this item of
the account relating to funeral ex|>en
ses and medical attendance, by the
counsel for the judgment creditors and
the question was argued, H. M. Oray
don, Esq., appearing for the administra
tors and Ovid F. Johnson, Esq., for the
judgment creditors. Judge Pearson
yesterday filed an opinion in which he
decides that the preference given by
the act of 18.14 to the payment of fun
eral expenses and medical attendance
durimr last illness applies only to |>er
sonal estate, if the real estate be en
cumbered, and that such debts have not
a preference over liens of record. In
this case the court struck out the item
of funeral and medical ex|cnsc*, be
cause the real estate was encumbered,
and when sold the whole amount would
have to be paid to lien creditors.
This decision is of importance Jo un
dertakers and medical men, inasmuch
as their services cannot be paid for out
of the proceeds of the sale of a decea*
ed person's real estate if the latter be
encumbered by mortgages or judgments
sufficient to cover its full value, and if
the dead person is not |>oaesaed of per
sonal property. This point has never
been distinctly decided by the Supreme
court, though some of their decisions
tend to that direction. Judge Smyser,
of the court of Common Pleas of Bucks
i county, some years ago decided the
question the same way as Judge Pear
ton.
Sargent's Despicable Conduct.
nil LAST OFFICIAL ACT ONE OF DISCOUNT
BST TO A BROTIIEE SENATOR.
From Wwhinftan M.
About ft o'clock yesterday morning,
after the Republicans had filibustered
the Seward case from before the House,
Oen. Dibrell, of Ttnneasee, got the floor
and moved to suspend the rules and
pass a bill to place (Jen. James Shields
on tho retired list with the rank of
brigadier-general. An effort was made
on the Republican sfde to prevent con
sideration of the bill, but it failed. A
vote by tellers showed two-thirds of
those voting in favor of the bill, but the
Republicans made the point of "no
quorum." The yeas and nays were de
manded, and the result was 112 yeas to
56 oaye—lacking one rote of the neces
sary two-thirds. Speaker Randall, with
his usnal promptness and decision in
emergencies, furnished that one affirm
ative vote, and the entire democratic
side made the House ring Tor several
minutes with applause. The bill was
Etten over to the Senate without do
t, and consent was asked to put it
upon its passage. Mr. Sargent object
ed, and whe&strenuously asked to with
draw his objretion and allow a vote to
be taken on tbe measure he ill-natured
ly refused. Sargent cloeed hie senato
rial career in a fitting manner; his act
was in keeping with his whole oourse
in publio Ufa.
THE Pittxburg Humana Society ha*
ndopted a oupplcment which it will en
deavor to have add<*d to the bill now
