Lands Hn feared that the collision between the citizens And tbo Indians had turned the scale Information from Fort Bonnet goes to show that the Indians nt Cherry Creek Agency are greatly exalted and that under tho leadership of Big Foot they are kenning up the ghost dan The Indians excitement Is Increased by the report that bands of hloux from Rose bud and Plnn Itldeare moving In the direction of Cherry Creek Col Corbln said last night that It was not known whether tho flitht referred to br Gen Brooke Crook was the one that occurred at French rAl If not contlnui llm Colonel thsrs hovo been two

tragic event of toduy Is told In n report received this afternoon by Assistant AdjtGen Corbln The narrative throws a flood of light I on the old chiefs wltv oharaoter The document Is addressed to Commissioner of Indian Affairs Morgan by United States Indian Agent James McLaughlin of Standing Rock and N as follow Having just returned from Grand Diver district and referring to my former communi cation regarding the ghost dance among the Indians I bate the honor to report that on taturdayoenlng lat I learned that such a dance was In i regress In hitting Bulls camp and that a large number of Indiana of the Grand River settlements w r participators Sitting Bulls camp II on the Grand River forty miles southwest from the agonay in a section of country outside of the line of travel only visited by thoit connected with the Indian service and IB therefore a secluded place for these scenes 1 concluded to take them by surprise and on Sunday morning left for that settlement ac companied by Louis Prlmeau arriving there about S P M nnd having left the road usually trnollel by me In visiting tho settlement got upon them unexpectedly and found u ghost dans In Its height There were about fortyflve men twenty lIve women twentyfive boys and ten girls participating A majority of tho latter boys and girls wero until a few weeks ago pupils of the day schools of the Grand River settle ments About 300 persons were lookers on who bad come to witness the ceremony either from curiosity or sympathy Most ot them had their families with tbemjand were encamp In the neighborhood 1 did not at tempt to stop the dance a in their crazad condition under the excitement it would have been useless to attempt II but after remaining some time talking with I with a number of the spectators I went on to the house of Henry Bull Head three miles distant where I remained over night and re turned to Sitting Bulls house next morning where I bad a long talk with Sitting Bull and a number of bla followers I spoke very Plainly to them pointing nut Vl what had been done by the Government for the Sioux peOple and bow this faction by their present conduct were abusing the confidence that had ben reposed in them by the Govern ment In its maznacilty In granting them full amnesty for all past offences when from destitution and Imminent star vation they were compelled to sur render HA prisoners of war in 1880 and 1881 nnd I dwelt at length upon what was be lug done In the way of education of their chil dren and their own Industrial advancement and assured them of what this absurd craze would lead to and the chatlsement that would certainly follow I these demoralizing dances and disregard of department orders were not soon discontinued I spoke with feeling and oarnihtness and my talk was well received and I am convinced that It bad a good effect Bitting Bull while being very obstinate and at flrst lucllnod to assume the rile of His Chief befort his followers finally admitted the truth of my reasoning And said that he be lieved mo to be a friend to the Indian as a peo ple but that I did not like him personally but that when In doubt of any matter In following my advice be had always found It well and that now be bad a proposition to make to me which If 1 1 agreed to and would carry out i would allay all further excitement among the Sioux over this ghost dance or else convince me of the truth of the belief of the India I In this new doctrine I He then stated his proposition which was that should accompany him on a Journey to trace from this agency to each of the other tribes of Indians through which the story of the Indian messiah had bean brought and when be reached the ast tribe or where It originated I they could not produce the man who started the story and we Hid not find the new Messiah 111 as described upon the earth together wit the dead Indiana returning to reInhabit this I gountry be would return convinced that the Indians bal been Imposed upon which report from him would satisfy the Sioux reprt practices of the ghost societies would cease I but that If found to be as protested by tbe In dians they be permitted continue their medicine practice and organize a they are now endeavoring to do oraue I told him that thin proposition was a novel one but that the attempt to carry it out would be similar to the attempt to catch up the wind that blew last rear but tbat I wished him to come to my house where I would give him t whole night or day and night In which time I thought I would convince him of tb absurdity of this foolish craze and the fact of his making me tho proposition that he did was a convincing proof propllion that ne did not fully believe In what he was professing and endeavoring ko hard to make others believe He did not however promise lullr to come Into tbe agency to discuss the matter but said lie would consider my talk and decide after deliberation I consumed three days In making this trio I found that the aotv members in the dance were nut more than halt the number of the arller dancers and believe that I Is losing ground among the Indians and while there are amonl many who are hallbeliever I urn fully eatls ned that I can koep the dance to the Grand Diver district Gen linoke In commaed of the troops at Pine thugs telegraphed tonight All the In dians who can be brought In are now here leaving about 20 bucks In the Bad Lands who refuse to listen to any one or anything Against these I will send a Bufflolent force to caniuro nr tight them All has been done that can be done The Indians now out have

warfare against the settlers of the frontier Many vain attempts were made to bring him Aan mae an into subjection In 18C8 a treaty was made with the Sioux by a special Commission by which thev agreed to sell the tract west of the Missouri Rlvr and north of the Platte and to restrict themselves to the reservation assigned to them Tbe terms of tbo treaty were carried out by the Government and by most of the IldlanR Several roving bands never acknowl edged tbe concession and committed depredations detrrda tions upon white settlers from time to time Bitting Bull was tbe most Implacable and the moat aggressive of the malcontents maintain ing hs hostile I attitude not only toward the representatives of the Government but toward those tribes of his own people who rejected his supromaT and his

with visitors yesterday at his office In Wall street Most of them were Republican politicians who had read of the conference of Mr Millers friends at the Windsor Hotel on Saturday night and Sunday and they wanted to obtain the details from thl Uerklmer statesman Mr Miller in conversation with a BUN re porter lid that the proposition t Issue a manifesto as a result of the deliberations of Ike conference did not now altogether met his approval I was Intimated from other aonrc that other conferences would b held shortly and that the expressions as to the line of policy t b pursusd would take t form of resolutions conference which a t b adopted at tenet This Is I no machine of mine said H MIL ler I Is I simply the gathering ot Republican friends of mine and others who believe that something should b done t rouse the Repub licans of the State If you will look at your election returns for the lit election you will observe that the Republican vote In the State fell off this year over two hundred thousand votes from that ef two year ago Allowing that this was an off year and that the vote of two year ago was brought out In a Presiden tial contest there should not han been this vast shrinkage From the reports of the gentlemen who attended the confer ence fit the Windsor Hotel It Is very plain to be seen that the Republicans throughout the Btate refused to vote and that t a certain extent they wsw disor ganized Again I wish to say to you that these Ianlzd contorences are not lathe Interest of anybody but simply to get the Republican party of the State Into shape for 1891 and 18m Many of those who attended came of their ow accord and others came to New York Insisting that some sort of I qonterenqe should b held tat r view the situation Still others tame on invi tations sent out by me and by others It was not a congregation of offloeseekers or Ia ome 1 holders and the universal report wa that while the party was listless In many sections It was still Intact and with good material for a fighting basis Ilbtna truth is that the Republican who did not come out and vote were disgusted at the partys jiolloi In the State for toe last tw JW years Not that these conferences were c le ers te wlr for the purpose of assailing any man or any set of men or to advance the ambitions of any man They were simply for the purpose of getting the itepublloan together with the Idea of bro dulng the partys policy In the State and not to drive people I out of the party The policy tor the last two years In my estimation and In the estimation of those wno attended the oonfeiences has be en on the most narrow party Hues and It was the opinion ot the little congregational the Vilndaor that the control tl ot tne party In tb State should develop a broader leadership That Is all the Republi can lenders should b consulted in mate of vital Intel est to the party I should not b in the chart of one man and I say that with no unkindness to anybody 1 bAY ftlt freer t cameo In this movement because I am not a candidate for office Another point there fs nothing In these conferences or In the movement which Is under way which In any way can be construed as in imical to the Administration at Wasnlngton I tbe Administration has seen fit to recognlz only one wing of the party in this State all well and good There S no complaint against this procedure and patronage not been considered In this movement We are not go ing to quarrel over patronage or In any way offend th Administration W e simply want to put the Republican party in this State where It was years ago

with this line of policy Again 1 say that the anti idea of the whole thing la the future prosperity of the party in the State t It was said yesterday afternoon that Con gressman Belden will sorely b

all bitterness of language whloh might render It dlfllcult for us to fight together In the future M comrades against the union of Inland I w have done for the cast ten years And with this view I used any lulluanoo I posseiatd to prevent the war being carried Into Ireland until all possible means ot bringing about a t compromise had been abandoned Tho Kil r kenny election had bon precipitated and I em strongly opposed to any personally offen x sive attacks on Mr Parnell although It mast b admitted that the cruelly unjust charges h b In led against members of his party nnd th extraordinary violence of Ihu methods by i which h has sought to suppress all expression of opinion hostile to hlmtolf render It very dif i t ficult for his opponent t maintain an atti iJ i tude of moderation Now that Mr Parnell has Insisted on chal k lenging public opinion In Ireland I trust th Irish psopl will let their opinion be known la i BO uncertain fashion I thy declare for Par I ulls leadership they must do so on the plat 4 form of bil manifesto anJ bis speeches at Dublin and Cork and that would mean a definite end for our time to all hope of winning I borne rule through the good will of tho Knu

and to adopt a policy whloh must end In Insurrection it end In an thing I believe that this new polity mean the de struction of all the work of the last ten ars I means to revive and blow Into flame once more the hatred between tho Irish and Lug llsh people which during the last the yeain under the Influence of Mr Parnell cud Mr Qladatone had been rauldly dying away f1 We feel bound to offer to the Irish people a full opportunity of deciding on this terrible Is I sue which has been forced upon them Vi e arc I determined that they shall decide with lull I I knowledge of the consequences Involved in their decision But I most earnestly desire r that this decision should be arrived at with the 1 least possible amount of personal Mtteiness andomeofthoianguage used In Ireland ad some lanlule Irland on both sides disgusting and humlllatlnu to every tru friend nf Ireland Is unit calculated J to divert the minds of the people irom the true Issue before them That issue I Is not 1 nui J sonal one but It IS a lue Ioo of public policy and it Is I exceedingly almtile whether I Mr Parnell pentsts In ufusing to retire trom the r leadership tho Tory party will win at the gen eral election by such a majority us will condemn Ireland to another seven years of r coercion and destroy all hope of gaining home rue by i arliaraenUrv acton in our time This and this alone Is tbo

of a chair indicating a terrific straggle during which some one had evidently been severely injured The beltappointed committee of citizens made further March outside and found the underbrush broken some distance in the direction of a big swamp No trace of the hermit was found and the party returned to the village The mysterious disappearance has created a sensation inasmuch as George has been thor oughly advertised throughout Connecticut as a weather prognosticator Aa a hermit Gil bert has proved a great attraction to the New York people who have cottages in lUdeefleld during the summer months He Is well edu cated nnd has given as the only reason for leading the life of a recluse that the young lady to whom be was engaged died just before the day fixed for the wedding It I is said

was made today to the District Court at Baton Rouge by Mr John A Morris bead ot the Louisiana Lottery Company for a mandamus to compel the Secretary of State to publish the lottery amendment to the Constitution passed at the late session ot the Legislature On the decision hangs the question whether the charter of the Louisiana Lottery Company shall be extended twentyfive years When the constitutional amendment was submitted to the Legislature it received ex actly tho necessary twothirds majority lu both Houses 66 out ot 98 members of the Assembly and 34 out of 88 Senators The Governor vetoed the amendment It was passed over bin veto in the House and an attempt was made to pass It In the Senate but It failed It was then claimed that the Governor could not veto a constitutional amendment Hera the question has remained ever sine the lottery people claiming that the amendment was properly passed by the Legislature and the Governors veto ls of no acount and the antilottery people anruInK that the amendment is djtao and can not tie submitted to the people The Secretary of State appears to have taken this view of the matter for he has promulgated all the other acts of the Legislature except this and as the law requires its promulgation before It can be voted on the lottery company has been com pelled to appeal to the courts to determine its status The case will go at once to the Supreme Court It the lottery company wins the ques tion of an extension of its charter will be sub mitted to the the popular vote in 1B92 the in dications belngnowthat It will

that I bad mad an rror In blnc marrUO Mrs HADERKORN Is not dependent on her husband support She can take care of r i herself without his assistance She I the capitalist of the marriage partnership Ac I cordingly when the bonds of sentiment between tween the pair began to lose their strength she was disposed dissolve the partnership as no longer profitable t either party not because of any breach of the matrimonial contract but because the members of the firm are s constituted that they cannot b harmonious She discovered that she bad K made a error In being married and that a all a fe Are dissolutions of marriage partnerships 3 forsuoh reasons to become frequent because of the Increasing Independence of women in these days I Is true that among the women of the stage they have always p occurred and s often that they a taken as a matter course but has not this been be tause these women are breadwinners them selves and are Independent of pecuniary support by their husbands Moreover the i breaking up of their marriages dos them in their A dramatic Do injury I thei profession A dato artist her well without b art can pursue career as wel wthout as With a husband and she may do even bt term single harness But it that is the case I with women of the theatrical profession one of the few public employments In which I have It not also I women hlve long engaged may a r Imo tho case with them in all the many professions Into which they are now en tering 7 I women con gut along without the financial support ot husbands and are Inde pendent of men in their careers is it not likely that their views ot marriage will un dergo a very decided change 7 t Mrs HONA CAIBD and other women who 1 have bean discussing the subject of late an swer this question unhesitatingly in the affirmative They contend too that mar t riage will rise to a higher moral level when women cease to regard It a their only I t career and possible means of support They will go Into matrimony with more praise worthy motives from pure love and affec tloolndopendont of all merely material con siderations and with greater dignity and 4 aelfrespeot So those writers of tho West mintter and other reviews tell us But will Dot Instances like that of Mrs HABEB 1 lon b mauy under such circumstances 7 t If the marriage partnership does not work f aa well as the parties to it expected and frequently the bliss of the honeymoon la t Dot of uninterrupted continuance will not the independent women call for the dis solution of the firm a sentimentally bank rupt f Mr CAIBD foresees this probability t i and to not at all afraid of it She even favors some sort of limited marriage con I tract t test the capacity of the partners t get on together I each Is Independent and mere especially If the woman Is able to take 3 care of herself the partnership can b re new be brckon for reaona of DIe1 or b up pure i sentiment only and not with any referenco I to mere vulgar pecuniary considerations t Thus matrimony according t these new octal philosophers would b put on an i levatlou more honorable to women who t would not have t seek It by a and artlfloa a a means of support and they 4 would be more

a b a prejudice against divorce BO strong especially among women that in the past wives hat borne without open com plaint not merely the shattering of their Intmont Illusions but also harsh con jugal treatment and oven downright Infidel ity Itself They wore ready t endure any thing rather than to Invite the notoriety of I divorce or an acknowledged separation even where they wore pecuniarily Independent Social conservatism has guarded jealously the marriage relation and assisted power fully t prevent the ruptures which would occur otherwise But as we have said the opinion of the dramatic profession In which women are so conspicuous has long tolerated and Justified the course pursued so frankly by Mrs HABKRKORN This attitude of the stage toward the disruption of marriages seems t b ex tending t other circles of society and more particularly t the circle of high fashion The prejudice against divorce Is passing away I we may Judge from what appears t b the Indifference of conte oTy fash ionable society with regard t JjbJect Divorced women are no longer under a social ban simply because they a divorced and wives who have made the discovery made by Mrs HABBRXORN that their marriage riage was a mistake a not subjected t injurious criticism if they take measures to break up the contract Usually they also enter Into new mar ries with other men without provcklni censure from their women associates and the facility with which they got the hus bands indicates that masculine opinion looks on their course with favor The di vorces in fashionable society too are ob tained generally by wives who a Indepen dent pecuniarily and sometimes where the dependence I o the side of tho husbands and the number of them has become so large that they have ceased t attract the attention of a novelty The women have lost regard for their husbands and as they do not need their support and perhaps also because they want t make new matrimonial ventures they fly t States whore divorce Is freer than here t get the marriage contract dissolved by a court The husbands may not resist very strenuously but the oases where they start divorce proceedings them selves are very rare almost unknown in that circle I this la the consequence of the material Independence dependence of women in these limited cir cles will It extend t selfsupporting women generally a the philosophers of whom we have spoken advise all women to become in order that they may the better sustain the dignity of womanhood 7 At any rate though the Church was never bitterer than now In Its denunciation of divorce for any cause or for any cause save one social sentiment expressed by the conduct of the leaders of fashion Is tolerant of divorce ob tained by women simply t repair a married Yet the sentiment error In being mre sntment which rules fashionable society I the sen timent of women usually so much under the Infuenc of the Church and always d tinguished for their conservatism The Action of the Railroad Presidents The gentlemen who control the Western railroads met yesterday at the house of Mr J FIERFONT MORGAN in this city and de cided adopt the methods and principles of railroad management lor which T SU basso persistently untiringly contended during the last two years This as we have steadily pointed out in a that time is noth ing short of a revolution In American rail r ding but it Is a revolution which will restore store t every branch of business In the country a sense of security and confidence that has long been lacking It means that our railroads will be devoted t the public service on conditions of probity and common sense that business princi ples will take the place of personal motives and private aims and that stability values will b reestablished where only reckless de preciation and injurious Insecurity have prevailed We believe that only the best re sults can accrue from the action decided upon yesterday That there should ever have ben occasion for that action no one connected with it can in tho future fall to blush but now that the thing I is done the less sold about the past the better particularly a tho future is infinitely more attractive It should more than any other Imaginable combination of circum stances have the effect of restoring credit and doing wholly away with the feeling of alarm doubt and suspicion which has been spreading a over the country and paralyz ing business I every community We have expressed our conviction that the railroads of this country can never return to te high tariffs and phenomenal profits of the past and as we have pointed out that belief Is shared by every competent railroad manager But It is equally certain that with honest capable and economical management they can make an adequate return t their owners a larger return In proportion t the entire capital represented than f yielded by the railroads of any other country To effect this they must b shorn of their practices and their extravagances and b reduced t practical and scientific principles of administration Under such conditions they will readily prove t b what we have always held that they are and that Is the finest proper ties ever created by human industry and enterprise They have not fathomed a tithe of the resources of their several terri tories and with all their development and rapid ratio of growth they have not kept pace relatively with the Increase in the population and in material wealth THE BUN congratulates the public the railroad fraternity and the owners of railroad road properties upon tho transformation scene enacted yesterday To the country at inestimable benefits will from large Inetmable benefL wi accrue It and we shall not soon again see great public Interests in like Jeopardy from any like cause The Wickedness o Senator Frjre We should rather have the opinion of the Hon WILLIAM Pnr FRY on the morality of a Rangeloy trout than that of almost any other man we know We should

and Senator GRAY Mr Fun declared his opinion that to b a Democrat was neces sarily t b dishonest I think there is something said Mr FRY I do not know what on earth It is that makes a man thC moment he

for any other reason whose vote will not b promptly accepted It he votes the Democratic ticket This com prehensive indictment was rounded off by Senator Fnin with the announcement that In his opinion the New York Tneehis 0 parcener in the great enterprise of 1876 was a good Democratio newspaper one of the best he added I that I know of in Democracy mocracy momoyI to accept a fraud because it

has already decided between Gen SHERIDANS denunciation of J MADIBOK WELL and Senator FBTEB eulogy of that same wretch But we think enough of the intelligence of the Senator from Maine t believe that

into the Ger man empire on the footing of Bavaria Nor would It be unprecedented I some pressure were applied from Berlin to stimulate the proGerman party In 1767 Prussia overran the Netherlands occupied Amsterdam and forced the StatesGeneral t ally themselves With the HOHEHZOLLXBNS It 1 undeniable that female sovereigns have brought no good luc t the Low Coun tries JACOBA or JACQUELINE of

present Queen WIBLiA Is the grandniece of Czar NICHOLAS yet we may be certain that the project of uniting her with Russian Grand Duke would a Ruian provoke armed resistance on the part of Germany I is equally probable that her marriage with a German would b opposed by Russia and by France Fortyfour years ago the marriage of ISABELLA I of Spain under analogous circumstances came within a hairs breadth of kindling a European conflagration flagration In tho present situation of Eu rope Holland Is no less likely t prove a fire brand than Spain was then It Is doubly true of a girl sovereign who

law of Gon LoA I was glad t do what I did for Mrs LOOAN In tho last campaign Gen LAN was vigorous and outspoken in his attacks upon the Democratic party but he never attacked Mo personally and never

determining a public and official not will appear a a footnote Illustrating the enjoin which ws have quoted from the forty seventh chapter of the nineteenth volume of of the Its still unwritten Book of Egoism In A It Aspects It will help t make clear t the student the great difference between Egoism and Enlightened Selfishness two human motives that are distinct though often confounded The Danger of Hunting Heresy The trial of the Rev HOWARD MAO i QUBABT for heresy was t come off In Ohio during the present month but a yet we do not hear of any actual preparations for the ordeal It seems even not Improbable that a formal trial will b dispensed with a more dangerous t orthodoxy than the clergymans alleged heresy Itself That was the course pursued by Bishop POTTER when charges of heresy were brought against the Rev HBBER NHWTON of New York He did not want t make a martyr of the freethinking clergyman and thus to attract the greater attention to unorthodox opinions at a time when the apptit for them Is 1 strong and e gen eral Hence the Bishop contented himself with cautioning the clergyman whose de partures from sound political morals rather than from sound orthodoxy at present pro voke attention and deserve censure Mr MACQUKART himself though loyal t his expressed convictions a to the virgin birth of rmna and the resurrection of the body Is also loyal t the Church and will do whatever can consistently t ward off the necessity of a trial whose consequences he believes will b vexatious I not actually damaging t It The changes and trans formations now going on In religious belief I even the conservative Epis copal Church aro so various and sometimes s radical that If heresy trI once begin there I no knowing when the J w end o how many of the clergy maV have t b brought before them Sugges tions of what amounted substantially to heresy were made at the late Church Con gress at Philadelphia and probably a large Dart of the doctors of the Church would b loath to std a searching Investigation into their honest religious opinions Even the Churchman with all its stanch ortho doxy deprecates the trial and the sentiment of many discreet and Influential clergymen Is against It They would prefer t leave Mr MACQUBART t acquire the greater caution and conservatism which come usu ally with increasing years and he himself is not obstinate in denying the possibility ot a change In his opinions Hence it seems probable that the trial w b avoide and that the embarrassing ques tions t which It would be sure to give rise will not come up for Judicial decision They are questions which reach to the very foun dations of a religious faith and of Protes tant doctrines more especially I Mr to QUEART Is brought t the bar of an ecclesi astical court he must plead in his defence that as a Protestant he has a right to Inter pret Scripture according t his private Judg ment and that under the Thirtynine Articles tbe Episcopal Church Is distinctively a Prot Indeed It Is called in its Church estant Chlh a Inde f ce Is official designation much a the High Church party may disclaim the Infer ences o the title Such a defence would provoke danger s controversy In the Church now so peaceful and might revive lamentable partisan rancor These are days too when the very ex posure of heresy encourages It diffusion or leads t its open expression by many who have hidden it away I their hearts The knowledge that they have companions in their doctrinal wanderings tends t em bolden them t go further from the path of conventional faith Accordingly wo observe an dis

In the record of the trials by Inferior courts There the gain over las year is only seen and the number U I much greater than that of the year preceding which was 10417 Of course in the army 8 In civil life there am a good many rounderf who oomo up before the regi mental and garrison courts n evetal times for the same offence especially when that offence is intoxication bull we find that no fewer than 8004 different enlisted men were triad during the year Hlnce the enlisted strength of the army has lately been about JSdoo men and a msldorable t nan ot theso are noncoin missioned ollloer lort have some special In centive for tot ocedlnnco to the regula tions wn find 1 very remarkable hroportlon l ot the enlisted strength In this number of those tried ilesldc the acquittals lust year In the Inferior Courts numbered only 3UJ leaving the convictions 11272 It II fair to ndd however that many of the trlaln In regimental and gar rison court are for minor offences and some 8f them deal with Infractions of rules not re itlng to question of morals Still as Secretary latng fUeaton8 8tl a r tory Proctor has snld the enormous number of trial rmiRt make them sn cominonpliico n to rob them ot Rowe of the force they ouuht to have her Is good ground for bllevlcg how ever that there will tie an Improvomiu In the statistics of 1891 due to the remarkable military tary legislation and administration of the pit year One change has bion tbe establishment of summary courts which take charge of cases hitherto belonging to regimental and gartison courts In the summary courts ib tilalls by a single officer summal second In rnnk at tho post and bo can accordingly dispose ot oases tapldly as a Police Justice doen In analogous offences under the civil Ian The pri mary purpose of this Chungs has been to avoid summoning lor minor dally delin quencies afull garrison court composed of several officers whose routine duties In the mean time must b performed by othersor not performed at all The delay in nnsombllng such a court ls also unjust to the faithful men In the company since ther have to discharge the share of sentinel and other duties which belong to the delinquents naltlne for trial tn the guard house General Orler No 137 from army headquarters recently Issued lay down the rules for the new summary court uud the trIUs 01 men before such courts Ire not to be published In order But lot It should happen that the court officer should also be the ac cuser or the enlisted man should prefer his chances before a regimental or sari Ison court he Is free before the hnarlng to demand a re moval of his case to the latter Another Important measure Is tbo act passed by Congress thin year to establish a Und code ot punishment for the numerous offences hith erto lelt discretionary with rourts martial Thirtytwo out of thirtyfour Articles of War authorizing Imprisonment leavA its extent tote the discretion ot tie court The result has ben agroatdlversltt of penalties for tho t mime offence with different standards In different departments reglmentf and garrisons It can readily be understood how a severe sentence should under such a system of f Inviuullty be regarded by the man who miners I as unjust or oppressIve and on the other Imnd how the chances of petting I light nntonoe might stimulate offences Congrrts novirdlng ly authorized the President at the last session to prescribe the maximum pen alty whenever punishments are male dis cretionary with the court Col Llrbr and Major Bchwan have since been at work In pre paring what substantially amount to a code of military punlbmunt under this legislatIon This code is now under the examination of Secretary Proctor and when fettled upon and promulgated hardly fall to have a good effect army on the
