Remanded for examination. --George W. Lurty, Robert E. Placide, and, J. W. Lemmon, were again before Commissioner Sends yesterday, charged with drawing money from the Government for horses alleged to have been lost by them in the service of the Confederacy. The evidence showed that two accounts were presented for settlementented in the order, he certified to the genuineness of the signatures appended thereto. Subsequently he made out another order in the same amount representing J. W. Lemmon as the party to whom the money was due, but bearing the signatures of the same officers as the first. In both of these transactions it is strongly suspected ts himself, or at least knew they were not genuine. The Commissioner, after reviewing the testimony, remanded the accused for trial before Judge Halyburton. Each party is charged with two offences, and it was announced that Lurty could be bailed for $2,000 in each case, and that Placide and Lemmon $1,500 each in both cases.
