The Annual Report of the jutant- 2 ‘General. ah INTERESTING REMARKS ABOUT THE IMPROVEMENT OF TEE MILITIA FORCE—RECOMMENDATIONS OF INTEREST TO THE NON-COMMISSIONED OFFI- CERS—THE CLERICAL WORK OF HIS OFFICE. The annual report of Adjatant-General Drum cotamences with a statement of the details made of regular Army officers to inspect state militia encampments and the reports of these inspect- ing officers. Upon this subject General Drum says: THE STATE MILITIA. “The presence st the several state encamp- ments of members of over 60 regiments, 10 in- dependent battalions, and 20 troops of cavalry or batteries of artillery, representing from 70 to % per cent of the total strength of those organizations, evidences marked interest and steadily increasing appreciation of the value of; a ‘well regulated militia’ asthe main reliance of a free people for national defense. ‘The regularly organized and uniformed active militia of the several states, which, in 1885, ag- Bregated 84,739, reached 92,734 in 1886, in- creased to 100,837 in the following year, and July 2, 1838, repregented an available force of 106,814 men, “A careful perusal of theso reports leads me towake the following remarks and suggestions: The [selva of the inspected organizations is excellent, and no better material could be found anywhere to make good soldiers. The officers are generally intelligent and fairly w in tactical knowledgé, while a general desiro shown to learn. Drill and discipline, generally fair, in some instances excellent; arms and equipments, except in few instances, good but not of uniform pattern—a yery serious defect with regard to arms, but which it is confidently expected will be remedied in the near future, consequent on the largely increased appropria- tions by Congress. Much attention should be given to company and battalion skirmish drills (obviously impracticable except at camps), a8, while movements in .magses will of courec be always required in active service, beyond tho range of mucketry, the battles of the future will be fought necessariiy in open order forma- tion. For the greater comfort of the men in drilling and marching, it would be well if a suitable shoe, of uniform pattern, were made part of the equipment, to be worn only when on military service. In- struction in military signaling should be made a part of the education of the troops. A knowledge of the code and use of the flag is easy of attainment, and the instruction of a small squad—say two non-commissioned ofticers and four privates—in each compan? would prove of much practical advantage. In sinall encampments it is suggested that two guards mounting daily (twelve hours each) would af- ford greater opportunity for instruction in this important duty. With a view to the troops in camps receiving the largest measure of benefit from the presence thereat of officers of the tegular Army as instructors, I beg to recom: mend that for large encampments fature details provide one officer to act as assistant adjutant general to the command and one to each regi- meat.” MILITARY COLLEGES. nig ee AB 360 month.

Gen, Drum says: “While these reports | are gratifying in showing increased results from the labors of the efficers detailed a3 mili- tary instructors, the full measure of benefit will not be reached until military instruction and drills are made part of the éurriculum of studies, and all students of proper age not phy- sically disqualified are required to attend lec- tures, recitations, aud drills. Notwithstanding the increase in the average number of students during the past year, the percentage of stu- dents attending infantry drills (which for the year ending June 30, 1887, was not quite 49 per cent) reached a fraction over 61 per cent for the last scholastic year.” OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS. A new edition of the Army regulations is recommended, as is also the reduction of the terme of enlistment from five to three years. In regard to dischargos from the Army it is sugzest- except in cases of minors or of men who by long and faithfully, discharges be made conditional on the reimbursement to the Government of the expense of recruiting and transportation, or a fixed sum, say #100. A list showing the retirement of 245 privates and_ non-commissioned officers under the act of February 14. 1885, is given, and of theso 5 | only 22 have died, so that on the Jat of October there wore living 223 beneficiarica under thix law. Anincreaso in the pay of non-commissioned officers is advised so that the lowest shall re- ceive not less than £25, and the highest #50 or #55. General Dram says in support of this, that “the grade of von-commissioned officer is the intermediary between the lowest in the Army, that of private. and the highest. the com- missioned officer. The line of demarkation be- tween these three classes should be as strongly accentiiated downward as it is upward, ani this is demanded aliko by justies to the non- commissioned officers, and proper regard for the discipline, efficiency and morale of the army.” THE MILITARY PRISON, The report says: “The number of prisoners remaining in the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.. June 30, 1897, was 496. During the year following that date the and loss were represented by 349 and ively, leaving 448 in the prison June 30, he prison statistics for the past few * indicate that with the Army at its present dard the prison will receive trom 35) to 400 soners annually, unless xome means of i f desertion shall be dis- ion, like other crimes. eradicated. punitive be cannot measures ean avd should be adopted that. while marking the heinousnegs of the military offense, will, at the same time, pr ry to the individual. The military prison as at present administered probably accomplishes this desirable result in the best manner yet tried, combining, as it does, useful and con- stant employment. strict, but just di with enforced confinement. ‘The work done by the military prisoners may therefore be ‘d with greator interest than usually attaches to such exhibits. “The aggregate number of day: formed is 149,438, of which labor, at 50 cents per di skilled labor, at ed for the Quarterm: mak a credit of €31.7 ’ labor por- 659%, days’ akilled and 18,256 ‘days’ un- were perform- Department, Stores and .02 were drawn from: the Quartermaster’s.

The following is a list of persons committed to the Government Hospital for tho Insane, under the order of the Hon, Secretary of War, from October 1, 1887, to October 1, 1888: Offi- cera of the U. 8. Army, 2; enlisted men of the U. 8, Army, 37; late soldiers of the U. 8. Army, 3; military prisoners, 3. Total, 44. IN REFERRING TO THB CLERIOAL FORCE of his ofice special reference is made to the ension branch and other divisions engaged in the preparation of reports on claims for pension, bounty, homestead grants, &:., and a table is given of the calls from the Commissioner of Pensions, Second Auditor, &c., for full or partial his- tories of officers and men of the late voluntecr force in connection with claims which camo bo- fore them for adjudication. Reference is made to the transfer of clerks from rented buildings to the new quarters in the State, War and Navy Department building and the reorganization of the divisions of his office, which was quently made. The most importont of ! was the establishment of the “Remuster Divi- sion,” which found before it. March 26, 1888, the date of ite birth, 9,565 claims for amend- ment of mnster. The clerical force of the Volunteer Registers’ Division,supplomented b; such details as‘could be made from other divi sions, has, sinte March 21, 1888, been actively engaged in the preparation of “record slips, giving on each the militgry history of the man whose name Cv aed at the top, as showp by the several rolls of the organization of ¥ he was a momber. Drum closes witb a warm testimonial to the general intefli- nee, zeal and efficiency of his entire clerical force. THE NIGHT SCHOOLS. Teachers Who Will Have Charge in the Various Buildings.

Ja) Macon Death of an Old Citizen. Mr. Thomas A. McLaughlin, an old citizen of the District, died at his residence, 1226 N street | northwest, yosterday, aged seventy-gne years. Mr. McLaughlin was a native of Baltimore, of Irish parentage, and came here about fifty years ago. He followed for many years the business of carpenter and builder, and prior to the war was of the firma of MeYaughfin and Wilson. This firm built a number of the | largest buildings in the city, including the ex- tension of Willard’s Hotel and much work on the public buildings. Mr. McLaughlin was in his younger days somewhat of @ musician, and for some years was &@ member of the Washing- ton Light Infantry Band, led by Prof. Joc Marsoletti. He also served in the city coun- cil as a representative from the old second ward. He formerly resided on F street, near 13th street. ea) been quite successful in business, and made money by the rise in real estate, he retired from business some years ago. ae For Running Down a Boy Bicyclist. ARTHUR NORRIS FINED TWRNTY-FIVE DOLLARS IN THE POLICE COURT FOR BEGRLESS DRIVING, Arthur Norris, the colored driver of one of F. M. Draney’s garbage wagons who drove over Johnnie Miller, the eleyen-ygar-ajd ,son of Mr. George Miller, of No. 712 5th street northwest, as published in Tuz Stan at the time, was called up in the Pallce Cotré this morning tO answer a charge of reckless driving. Col. Jackson appeared for the defendant and pleaded not guilty. Tho affair gpcurred about 4 o'clock last Friday afternoofi at the corner of 6th and G Streets o8 Pension witnosses were several of these cletks, who teg- tifigd that the defendant wag driving a pair of ae along 6th street, ene a ay ores at a rapid gate—pii eight or ten m an hour. rie bay who was ob ‘a bicycle, was on G street, going west. The negro made a short turn aud collided with the bicycle. The boy twas knocked down and the front wheel of the vehicle badly cyt the flesh from his left leg. The ‘bicycle wag broken. Among the clerks from tho Pensign Office was Dr.Geo. A, Lecch, wh attended thé bo¥. The lad was able to avieet and give testimony. Norris testified that he wag only driving in a trot, and did not see the boy until he turned the corner. We called to him and the boy at- tempted to cross in front of the team and was knocked down. Witness pulled up the mules and they became frightened. e of them be d over eee and,the wheol strack him, 16 did not think he was driving faster than four miles an hofr. Other colored witnesses called by the defense testified that the mulés were walking and that the defendant called to the boy: *Lookout” The boy was re-called and denied the testi- mony given by the colored witnaases. None of the witneases for the prosecution heard the driver call to the boy. Judge Miller in disposing of the case com- mented on the manner in which many bicyclers ride about the streets. It is a fact, the Judge said, that they dart in and out between vehicles, and are dangerous for pedestrians because they- are noiseless. If the bicycle rider and the driver had both had the street ahead of them the court would not hald the defendant, but the reckless manner in which he drove down the hill and turned the corner makes him re- sponsible, A fine of #25 was imposed. Appeal noted. ee A Second-hand Dealer in Trouble. FINED VOR VIOLATING THE POLICE GEGULATIONS IN RELATION TO BUCH DEALERS. This morning in the Police Court, Frank M. Goldsmith, the second-hand dealer at 909 D street northwest, was arraigned on a charge of violating the police regulations. He was charged with violating that section of the reg- ulations which provides that all pawnbrokers and second-hand dealers shall make a record of articles received and report the same to the police department in his deily returns. Some days ago, as heretofore published in THe Stan, a bicycle, a cornet, and violin ware stolen from the Cycle Club. "The bicycle was recovered from where the thief had’ pawned it, but the instruments were not found. The violin alone was valued at #50. The second-hand dealers’ and pawnbrokers’ reports were watched, but no trace of the stolep instruments could be found. Finally, Detectives Wheeler and Mattingly found them in the defendant's store, and In- spector Block swore outa warrant for Gold- smith, Judge Miller explained to Mr. Gold- smith the objecta of passing such an act; that it was to assist the officers g the recovery of stolen property. “If Thad known they were stolen,” said Mr. Goldsmith, *I would ha: at them away.” “T have no doubt of that,” said the judge The court thereupon imposed a fine of #2 Tue Snoorixne Case at Criups’ Brickyarp. Arthur Wells, the colored boy, who 80 badly scared John Murray, also colored, by shooting him at Childs’ brick'yard, as published in yes- terday’s Stan, was arrested last evening by Policeman Stahl of the fifth precinct. When the officers took the injured man to the hos- pital he told them that his name was Graiam, ut his real name is Murray, When arrested the boy made a statement corroborating the facts as published in Tus Bran. He stated that he had some trouble with Murray about a wheelbarrow and that he was discharged. He then went home, got the gun, returned to the brickyard and fired. This morning in the Po- liee Court the case was continued until to- morrow. > — Ronpenies Rerorten.—Dr. J. W.

Mr. Lipscomb stated that owing to the ab- sence of a material witness in St. Loyis the Government could not go to trial, and asked @ postponement. Mr. Hay remarked that this witness could not bo so important, for she was sick at the time, and he protested against farther delay. DAPASSIONED APPEAL OF THE DEFENDAST. Mp. Graham romarked that he was a member of the bar, and in an earnest, impassioned mag- ner eddressed the court, saying that the case had been set three times; that his witnesses— eight in number—had been called from thelr places of busingss, and it was unfair to them that the case should be further continued. The indictment wag found two months ago, and the witness referred to was then in the city, “Why se not writes issued their subpmnas? As d is thy Judge,” he said, “I was not in that house after the’ 8th of September, and the allegation is that the breaking was op the 10th.” Ho bad a reputation and a, ho said, which the complainant, with his money and his wife’s Money, cannot smirch, “Why should this cuse hang over me? Why should thig cloud hang over me, my wife and my chil- dren?” he asked. “The malice that hag en venomed that little corpse that sits there——” (pointing to Mr. Glover). THR DEFENDANT ADMONISIED. The court here checked Mr. Graham, and admonished him that different language must be used. . Mr. Graham remarking “I am done,” sat lown. The case was set for Thursday. a COMING TO WASHINGTON. Sketch of the Vice-Rector of the New Catholic University. Rev, P. J. Garrigan, recently appointed vigo rector of the new Catholic university here, spoke his farewell to his people at Fitchburg, Mas8., last Sunday, and leaves this week for his new field of labor. Rev. Father Garrigay was born fn 1841, in County Cavan, Ireland, and is, therefore, forty-seve) years old. His parents omigtated to this country when ho was quite Young. He rcoeiyed his first training in the public schools of Lowell, and having eyinced o desire to take religious orders, he was sent to St. Charleg’ College, Maryland, gad afterward to St. Joseph's Seminary, Trof, where be pur- sued his theological course, 1870 be was to tho -priesthood, and was tho first ordained. | pees appointed by Bt Rev, P.

His next appoint- ment was direc e ie Joseph's Theo- logical Keminary at Troy, N. ¥., which posi- tion he held for three yéearé. His signal suc- cess in varfous departinents led to his appoint- ment, in the fall of 1875, ag pastor of Bt Bor- nard% church iy Fitchburg. where severa) thousand parishioners have been under his care.
