March 15,1570. 12MIE=ZBE The fact that Mr. Logan dot* aot give his speech on the army bill to therprintar for publication, excites conaideiable aut. picion hire, and has a very bad irdract on publici sentiment. It la said to have contained so many grave error. that he means io have it thoroughly revised and oorre.sted before giving It to the people. The more closely this sweeping bill Is examined the more glaring do fie dan gerous features appear. According to leading army afloat. it Is said Gat it will save to the people only a few thousand dollars after all, while the injustice it will do to many of the bravest and most patriotic officers of the army cannot be estimated by dollars and cents. It is thought that the bill strikes Oland aims to degrade such officers as Sherman, abstinent, Thome, Hancock, Meade, Park, Humphreys, Barnes, the Burgeon General; Spires, of the Oommlstary partment ; Dyer, of Ordinances; and as effectually dest roy. whatry ;they gained for military power In 1p country during the ware. the rebele i ctild rye done had they been viotorio ISDIAN A. meeting of &befriends &the Idd lans was held at the rooms of the Indian Com. zalsaloner today.

Dr. An drews presented resolutions indorsing the report of the majority of the Book Committee, in their newt Investigations. These resolutions Balled forth consider ble discussion, in which Rev. Drs. Ridge way, Foster, Curry, TllLmy,Crawford, and Messrs. Hermanos, Taylor, Ring, and others participated. The general ex pression was that the allegations of fraud had not been and could not be sustained, and that the verdict of ten against three was sufficiently strong in itself to de mead approval. The publication of the minority report, and of Dr. Shires' paper, in the Baltimore American, were denre cited, and declared to have been 11legitl mately ace uLred *and made known, and that the Committee had their minority report ready to be gent to the General Conference, together with that of the majority. The action.of the Baltimore Conference In censuring the majority and withholding Sunday School Union fends, was also commented upon as un just and hank, there being no proof either before Confgrenoe or before the community to sustain the allegations of fraud, and alter careftil Investigation the Book Committee had failed to nod proof. Their action is final arid can only be re versed by the General Conference. Her mance moved to lay the ”wieolutions on the table, which was lost, and they wore adopted by a large majority. I= The unprecedented atilt 'by Miss Della W. Moore against John 8: Bonnet!, to recover five thousand dollars damages for alleged slander, was ohncluded year terday. Borman claims that he was married to - Miss Moore on the 26th of November, 1884, by the late Rev. Dr. McClintock, of the Si. .ranl Methodist Church. On Friday nearly all the testi mony was taken, aad during the trial a copy of the church record of their mar riage was produced In the evidence. Notwithstanding all this, ther with numerous letters written by Mina Moore to Bonnet', claiming him to be her Deer Jack, Dearest Darling, and other pet names, she ewers she had never been mar ried to him, and that she was never In Bt. Paul's Church with him. The &andirons words complained of are that Somali said: ..She is either my wither miatreas." Miss Moors's counsel recognize the church record, but their main point is, that the lady to whom Boanell was mar ried upon the 26th' of November, at Bt. Paul's Church, and giving the name of the plaintiff, was some other than this Della Moore. • Dr. McClintock, the offi ciating clergyman, deposed and declared positively that he married Bonnet', but could not tell for indigo whether the plaintiff waa the person to Whom he was married or not, but had a faint mallet, Lion of her features. After Judge Spen cer's charge to the juryNthey were di rected to bring in a mated verdict. The Judge admonished them that there was remarkable fraud and ingenuity, and also perjury, in the calm, and that they must endeavor to dud out where it wait. The Jury being unable to decide, were discharged. CUBAN ntsanitscriolt. Gametal Jas.
