The decision involved the validity of the contract made by John T. Cochrane with the Choctaw nation in 1855. The court holds that the complainants, who claimed as assignees of aninterest in that contract, could not re- cover against McKee because the Cochrane contract was void and within the principles decided by the Supreme Court in the case of ord against Kirk. The court also held neither Cochrane’s legal representatives nor his assignees could recover upon that con- tract, because it was never formed by Cochrane. John J. Weed and Hon. B. F.

Upon the } Fi : i ef, iFe | ff Fil iT i Hy ii i Efae % g af F § The Navy department has been informed that as Rear Admiral Belknap was leaving the Mare Island navy-yard, Cal., on the 9th instant, for San Francisco, to take the steamer for Yo- kohama, Japen, where he is to take command of the Asiatic squadron, he was served with a summons to appear before a magistrate at Val- lejo upon a suit brought by Ensign Geo. Ormsby, This officer is kept on board the re- ceiving ship Independence at the Mare Island yard by order of the Navy department until ac- tion can be finally taken in his case, Some months ago he was ordered to join the Monon- gahela at Mare Island, but failed to meet her. He claims that he has been treated unjustly. As Admiral Belknap was in the execution of his official duty in connection with this case the United States district attorney at San Fran- cisco will appear in his behalf in the suit, while the sails on to Japan. Status of Retired Army Officers. THEY CAN LEGALLY HOLD OTHER POSITIONS UNDER THE GOVERNMENT. There has been considerable discussion of the question whether a retired officer of the army can legally hold another office under the gov- ernment. An investigation of the subject to- day has elicited the fact that this question was passed upon by Attorney-General Garland in a letter to the Secretary of State, dated October 30, 1885, in which the Attorney-General states that his former opinion, expressed before fully examining the statutes, was correct, namely, that retired army officers can’ legally hold other positions under the government. In this letter he refers to the act of March 3, 1875, as given in chapter 178, supplement to Revised Statutes, pages 194, 195, which fixes, among other things, the rank and pay of retired officers of the army, provid- ing that they shall continue on the retired list with only the rank they held at the time of incurring the wound or disability for which they were retired, &c. In this chapter it is provided that ‘Every officer now borne on the retired list shall be continued thereon, not- withstanding the provisions of section 2, chapter 8, act of March 30, 1868” (15 Statutes at Large, 58), and in this same chapter 178 it is further provided, “That no retired officer shall be affected by this act, who has been retired, or may hereafter be retired, on the rank held by him at the time of his retirement.” The act of March 30, 1868, which is thus de- clared not binding in the case of retired army officers, among other things provides in brief that no officér of the army on the active list shall hold any civil office, elective or appointive, nor shall he accept any diplomatic or consular oftice. It will thus be seen that, according to previous decisions, retired army officers are en- titled to the same privileges, in respect to office-holding, as are accorded private citizens. On inquiry at the Department of Justice it was stated by a number of officials that there has been no decision rendered since the above by Attorney-General Garland, The Law Regulating Pawn-Shops. QUESTIONS RAISED BY INSPECTOR BLOCK AND REFERRED TO ATTORNEY RIDDLE. The law regulating pawn-shops, approved a short time ago, has raised some important ques- tions. Policeman 8. J. Block, the inspector of Pawn-shops, in a letter to Inspector Swindella, asks that instructions be given him, so that he may properly enforce the law. In his letter he asks the following questions: “Does the new law annul the existing licenses of pawnbrokers? Is a person liable for license as a pawnbroker who charges storage for goods left with him, and who advances money on said goods, conditional on the repayment of the advance and storage being paid before the goods are allowed to be taken away? Can a person having a pawnbroker’s license, under the new law in addition to ‘the lawful rate of interest by agreement with the pawner, charge storage on the goods? Is a licensed junk dealer permitted to buy personal prop- erty, agreeing to hold same for any stated time agreed between his customer and himself, not naming or stipulating any price, however, to be paid for the goods? “Are promissory notes not secured to be classed as exempted from the operation of the pawn law? Is a general de- scription, such as “overcoats, watches, pistols,” etc., sufficient in advertising previous to sale by the pawnbroker of unredeemed pledges? ‘The matter was referred to the Commissioners to-day, who Promptly submitted the questions to Attorney Riddle for his opinion. Another Lottery Case in Court. William W. Gould was charged in the Police Court this morning with selling Louisiana lottery tickets. Mr. A. B. Williams, his counsel, appeared and demanded a jury trial, Bail in the sum of $100 was given, and the case was continued to await the result of a case pending before the Court in General Term, involving the legal questions raised by Mr. Williams, This is the second case brought against Mr. Gould within two weeks. The cases were not brought by officers of the law, but by citizens, The first case was brought by Ferdinand G. McCormick, of East Washington, and the second warrant was sworn out by Carwin Price, ot No. 2222 G street northwest. Why the war- rants were sworn out by citizens is not known, but it is said by certain apasaetna such prose- cutions will be continued from time to time as long as Mr. Gould continues the sale of lottery tickets, ilies Another Loud Protest. Wasuinaton, D. C., March 16, 1889. To the Editor of the EVENING Star: In your issue of last evening I was glad to notice a mother’s protest against the fairs in the public schools. I, too, have children in a school where such a fair is to be held and would like to enter another emphatic protest against them. “Mother,” in speaking of the charms and deceits of the fair fish-pond and grab-bag, does not light up, probably is not aware, of another much greater evil that now attends these fairs. The gold ring to be voted to the most —_ (2) girl and football to the most popular boy sounds innocent enough, but, *-Mother,” just fancy your little girl going trom store to store among the clerks, from house to house among neighbors, friends, or strangers, begging for 10 cents for a vote! Just fancy, for & moment, the experience and training she will et in such a course to become the most popu- i girl. Willshe not have to become the most artful, cheekiest and boldest girl to get the prize? Yet this is being done most every day, as almost any merchant in the city can testify. The writer has actually been accosted’ on the street, after 9 o'clock at night, by a bevy of girls, from ten to twelve years old, begging for votes at 10 cents apiece. But this was for a church fair, Think of it, ye Christian mothers, how your churches are being supported before you consent to another fair being gotten even for that purpose. The police authoriti have prohibited the rafiling and other gambling devices at the fairs, yet that was innocent amusement alongside of what has been substi- tuted for them—this begging for votes, I agree with “Mother.” If our authorities are too poor to provide our public schools with necessary libraries, tax me to any reasonable amount for the purpose, but do not let the fair invade our public schools, A Farner.

To the Editor of Tae Evextxe Sta: The article in your issue of the 14th inst. on the art exhibition seems to me timely, and Iam glad that you have given it so prominent a place. To the casual observer it seems as though the very success of the exhibition ina social sense was tending to make people over- look the importance of the exhibition as an ex- position of work now being done by American artists all over the country. We are in danger of forgetting that the open- ing of this exhibition marks an epoch in the | 8- history of art at the capital, Never before have the artists of the United States had a chance to show in the national capital what they are do- ing, and they embraced it eagerly when it was offered them. They felt that the capital of the country was the fittest place for an exhibition of national art, and they gave of their best. It is now the turn of residents of Washington, gathered from all parts of the country, having at heart the elevation of our beautiful city to | its proper position as the center of our country in art, sciences, and literature, as well as of lo government, to respond, and show by liberal patronage—by refusing to allow pictures worthy the city to leave it—that they were not mis- taken, Already “sold” has appeared here and there, but not enough. The artists of the country are watching the results of this experi- ment, and if they fail to find a market here it will be long ere Washington sees another such exhibition, A Reswwent oF WasHINGTON. . eee A) W bs address for special work.

The jeweler took the ring and said he would attend to it. As the customer was leaving the store the jeweler called her back and said: “This stone is glass, ma’am—I want you to understand that.” ‘The young woman colored up and exclaimed with wrath in her voice: ‘It’s no such thing— it’s areal diamond. Glass, indeed!” “Excuse me, ma’am,” politely rejoined the jeweler, “it is nothing more than a piece of common crystal or glass, There is no doubt whatever about it.” “But it was a present given to me last Christ- mas by a very dear friend who wonldn’t think of giving me @ sham diamond,” the young \ grocery aud revision store; cau bring reierences, Address W.

Well, the young woman argued still further about the ring and insisted it was very valu- able, and at last took it away with her, saying that she would take it somewhere else to be repaired.

After she had gone the jeweler said to me: “I did not want to hurt that girl's feelings, but | when a ring of that kind is given to me to be repaired I always make it a practice of having | it clearly understood that the stone is valueless.
