"I suggested to him," says Mr. Benjamin, "That I thought he was acting imprudently; that if any accident should happen to these trains by attacks by Indians, or any other cause, and they should fail to arrive, it would be impossible for him to pay the acceptances upon intelligence of that fact, and that that would give good reason for complaints and investigations which would be injurious to him, and I urged him to discontinue the practice. --Two days afterwards I received a note from him informing me that he was obliged for the frank statement I had made to him, and that upon reflection he had determined he would accept no more."

ussell in the banking business, at Leavenworth, Kansas. Mr. Lea is, however, careful to state in his evidence that he gave no intimation to Mr. Bailey that he might use the stocks he had in his charge belonging to the Indian Trust Fund. Mr. C. G. Wagner, who is nearly related to Mr. Bailey, and in whose hands was first placed his confession, states, in his evidence, given (your Committee are pleased to say) with full and honorable frankness, that he learned from Mr. Bailey that Mr. Lea did mber--nearly two weeks subsequent to the date of Mr. Bailey's confession. The only satisfactory explanation that can be given of this noticeable discrepancy is the supposition that the statement was actually prepared on the day it was given to Mr. Wagner, and the day the last bonds were delivered to Mr. Russell, and dated wrongfully "Dec. 1st," to allay any suspicion that might be excited if it were seen that the date of the abstraction was identical with the date of the last acceptance which w
