REPORT OF THE CUIEF OP THE BUREAU OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY, ‘The chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry has submitted a report of the progress made in the suppression of pleuro-pneumonia for the six months ended June 30 last. He states that under the act of March 3, 1887, and the appropriation of $500,000, the department has been able to ac- complish a great deal, Nearly all the States and ‘Territories have accepted the terms of the act, and have passed acts giving full authority to the National Government to suppress the disease within these States and Territories. Pennsylva- nia fs the only ile believed to be infected with the disease that has refused to accept the new law and permit the agents of the National Gov- dicate the disease, It 1s recommended Ubhat an inves ‘on be had to determine the e: Unt Of the disease in Pennsylvania, and if it be demonstrated that pleuro-pneumontia exists ther that the state be quarantined.

A {otal of 1,253 post-mortem examinations have been made on carcasses of slaughtered animals, showing 765 to have been affected with pleuro- neumonia, Seventy stables have been disin- fected, Very few recent cases of the disease have been found, and it is believed that but little more trouble ts to be apprehended. The counties of Baltimore, Howard, Carroll, and Prince George's are in quarantine, but it 18 hoped these restric- Uons may soon be removed with safety.

Regimental and Post Funds to be Abolished. IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE REGULA- TIONS BOARD—SOLDIERS TO HAVE FULL FOOD AL- LOWANGRS—A CHECK TO DESERTIONS FROM THE ARMY. To find some way of preventing the large num- ber of desertions in the Army ts a matter that has occupied the attention of military authorl- tes for many years, Heretofore all efforts in this direction have been of little avail, One principal excuse for desertion has always been dissatisfac- ton not only with long deferred payments, but with the food supply. Recruits who were not ac- customed to live on the small Army allowances would soon become discouraged and dis. contented, and would take advantage of the | first opportunity afforded to desert. ‘The board of Ariny officers which recently revised and amended the Army regulations and made their report to the Secretary of War gave particu- jar attention to this matter, and in their recom~ mendations so changed the regulations as to give the soldier, as nearly as practicable, the full tood. supply allowed him by law, s thing that has not been done in past years. recommenda tions, if approv: ry of War, will practically abolish the post and regimental funds, RVILS THAT HAVE BREN GHOWING FOR OVER FORTY YEARS at the expense of the soldiers. The regulations provide for the dally Issue of elghteen ounces of flour or bread to each soldier. Thisreadsall right, but really there ts a great deal of difference be- tween eighteen ounces of four and the same amount of bread, Eighteen ounces of four will 3 percent more than eighteen ounces. of Dread, Advantage has been oMiclally en of the witernative In bis regulation, and While requlst- tion has been made for the eighteen ounces of flour forthe men they have been allowed ine dividually but eighteen ounces of bread, thereby, Ing @ slight ‘saving In each individual in- stance. These stall daily savings multlp! i Hou have aggregated hundreds of thousands of ars, and from these savings ‘THE POST AND REGIMENTAL FUXDS have been sustained, one-halt going to each. It cannot be sald that these funds have been squan- dered, but the money has always been expended for purposes which no doubt benefit the soldiers to acertain extent, but they do not care to be benefited inthis Way at the expense of their stomachs, One of the principal expenses which has been met from these funds 1s the maintenance of regimental bands, ‘The handsome band instra- ments have always been pald for out of the re mental fund. At some posts the money is used for gymnasiums, at others for elegant’ flower “gardens, and so on, While sppreclating these objects to a certain extent the soldiers have always looked upon them as so much bread taken from them. The regulations Doard, it 1s understood, do not. recommend the to- tal abolition of these finds, preferring to deal with the diftculty gradually, and therefore are in favor of continuing the payment of certain necessary expenses, such as for baking and for fuel, from the rations issued. ‘These, however, are minor points, and if, with these exceptions, soldiers are given the food supply provided for’ them by law there Will be general rejoicing throughout the entire riny. ‘THE COMPANY FUND. ‘There 1s another fund called the company fund, which, it 1s understood, the board are in favor of malntalning, as It In no way reduces the soldter’s food supply, but, on the other hand, benefits him, ‘Tals fund 1s maintained by selling certain articles of fod, Which are not needed or which cannot be used for climatic reasons, thereby permitting the urchase of other articles much preferable. In fexas, for instanve, where the men do not eat pork, they can sell’ their pork and buy beef, or they’can convert 1t Into milk by keeping cows, VIEWS OF AN ARMY OFFICER. An army officer, in speaking to a Star reporter to-day on the subject of the proposed abolition of the regimental and post funds, sald: “Such ac- ton would benefit the Army more than can be im- agined, and I have no doubt would effect a ma- terial decrease In the number of desertions, ‘This evil Was Inaugurated in Gen. Scott's time, and has been recognized by the War Department since 1845; Indeed, 1t orlyinated in the Adjutant General's OMlce of the War Department. Congress has had no conception of Its magnitude, or legislation would have been enacted long ago tv root tout, ‘The soldiers have had no redress, Individustl complaint would be of no avall, while concerted provest would be regarded as iutiny, followed by severe punishment, The soldiers have in many Ways been long sufferers, owing to their subordinate reltions, and any move in the directon of securing to them thetr rights will be hatled with delight, not only by 5,000 soldiers, but by all officers and citizens who have the welfare of the Army at heart.” Senator Shermans Speech. HE PAYS A HIGH TRIBUTE TO GOV. PORAKER, When Senator Sherman took the chair as perma- nent president of the Ohio convention yesterday he made a speech urging the renomination of Gov. Foraker, to whom he paid the following high tribute: “Noman was ever presented as a candidate with more hearty, generous, and frank indorsement than he; and he deserves it, because be has fairly earned this nomination at your hands.

Crawford, Assistant Surgeon United States Navy in charge of the Naval Hospital, whose arrest was mentioned in THe Stax, was taken before sudge Harper of the Police Court, ona charge of fornication with Eva the fourteen year old daughter of Dr. G. A. White, the chtropodist. Mr. A. A. Lipscomb, assistant district attorney, asked that ball be fxed at $2,000, on the ground that the charge was a very serious one, and tn the ease of a man holding such a position it was necessary that such an amount be fixed as would Ansure his presence for trial. Mr. C, S.Moore, for the accused, asked that not over $1,000 be fixed as the amount of bail, stat- ing That that amount was amply suMictent, le court fixed the bail at $1,500, and it was given, THE LAW IN THE CASE. ‘The arrest was made about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon by Detectives Raff and Horne on a war- arging Dr. Crawford with carnally know- ing Eva White, The charge 4s brought under the Hfth section of what is generally known as. the Edmunds act or Utah dill, w ‘section reads: ‘! ann commit forni- ied by ttuprison- ug six mouths, or by @ Due not ex- ts at present a diversity of opinion among: Inelnbers of the bar as to whether this law appltes. here, but the majority seein tobe of Une opinion Unat'te law holds here asin the territortes aud all other places under the control of the general goveTuient, Tt Will be remembered that District Attorney Worthington, some months since, gave an opiuion that Uke act was In full force here, and. the pubiteation of the fact caused much comment. Since them, in the Rawilu's. bigal ia tbe Criminal Court, afew weeks since, Judge Mont- gouery ruled that that act was in force and So ulmttted the testimony of the first wife agatnst the husband. ‘The case will not only be watched With much interest because of the legal questions involved, and Its belng the first ease of the kind in Ue District, but because of the sensational features, the standing of the parties, &. CIRCUMSTANCES WHICK LED TO THE ARREST. ‘The girl 1s the third daughter of Dr. G. A. White, the well-known chiropodist, who resides at No. 1008 D street southeast, and the hospital ts at the inversection of 9th street, Maryland avenue and E street southeast, but a Short distance off. D1 White's wite died some few years ago, leaving sev eral children, and Eva haS been living at home with her father and two younger children, aged five and elght years, respectively, a servant being employed to keep ‘house. Dr. White has been in Ube habit of leaving his home ‘at 7 o'clock in the morning and returning at 6 o'clock in the evening. Iv appears that Dr. Crawford Was last spring in the hablu of meeting the girlas she was guing back and forth to school, never having had any fermal introduction vo ‘her by any friend of the faunily, and he visited the residence of Dr, White @ nuniber of times when there Was no one there excepting the servant and children. So frequent were his visit, during some of Which he remained Several hours in a closed room, that the school children commented on it. Some time ago OMicer Pearson and his partner discovered some one going in the back gute of Dr. White's, but the party escaped. ‘The officers supposed he was a burglai Dut Eva showed no emotion whatever, which fact Ue oMicers regarded us singular, ‘Then some of the neighbors Lold the ofticers thelr suspicion. On of them, a lady who had promised the child's mother ‘at her deathbed that she would wate over the children, wrote to Mrs. Wright, an aunt Of the girl residing 1n New York, to coine on, re- lating What she had seen and heard. Mrs Wright came here. Prior to Unis, on July 2 the accused, iv 1s alleged, took the girl’ down the river on an excursion, then took her to the hospital, and then to her home at 3 o'clock in the morning, and she ‘sat on Che steps Ull her father lert the house, tell- ing him that She had spent the night with a friend, AN ALLEGED CKIMINATING LETTER OF DK, CRAWFORD TOTHE GIRL, A few days after the arrival of Mrs. Wright she arranged to take Eva with her to Hew York. Eva wrote a note to Crawford informing him of the fact. Dr. Crawford, it 18 alleged, sent, on Tues day, a levver in reply, but the messenger, a colored boy’ employed at the’Asylum, was made to give 1t up by Mrs. Wright. ‘This proved to be a four-p. epistle, commencing “Darling Eva: Lam tovlly Wreckéd In hearing that you have to go to New * * Promise the oid man that you will not Speak to or see me, and he wil let you come back In September. * * Can't you come over to- hight alter the old folks are asleep? * * I en- close you (a letter, which I shall ‘send Lo that she devil, who ‘has been telling Iles on us, Tcould kil the — How do you spell her name abd What to her address?

Yours, Muir.” ‘The capture of this letter dispelled ail doubts in Mrs. Wright’s mind, andshe at once communtcated with Eva's brother, now located in Baltimore, and urged him to prosecute Crawford. He, at tirst, in tended to get ‘satisfaction with a pistol, ‘but taking advice of friends, he appealed to the law. Mrs, Wright, in the meantime, Wok Eva to New york.

Dr. Crawford was not at the Naval Hospital to- day when a Stan reporter called there. His coun- sel, Mr, Chas, 8, Moore, stated toa Star reporter that he had a perfect defense. Mr. Moore said that in the first place he did not think thatit could be established that the law under Which the rusecution Was brought was in force in this istrict; im the next place his client de- nied in toto the charge brought inst him, ‘The ution, “he sald, was based on the suspicions of an ambitious policeman, and grew, to some extent, out of neighborhood spite. ‘The Only facts alleged were that the parties were seen frequently together, and that was not sum- clent to prove a case of fornication, They were together frequently in public, and there was no at teinpt at concealment, As to the letter Dr. Craw- ford Was sald to have written, he thought that capable of explanation. A wrong construction had been placed upon ii. “He has a perfect detense,” said Mr. Moore, “and all we ask fs that the public suspend its judgment until the case is fully developed. It 1s stated in one of the papers that the friends of the man—the naval influence—has been brought to bear to have this matter kept dark. Now what we want is the fullest investigation of all the facts. It all the facts are Drought out we have no fear. I have confidence enough in the integrity of the girl to Delleve that when she 1s brought back here she will swear that no act of fornication was ever committed. I have investigated the: case, and fully believe in the innocence of my cliént.” WHAT NAVAL OFFICERS SAY. ‘The expose in the case of Passed Assistant Sur- geon M. H.
