The Admiral Has Made No Effort to See the Secretary of the Navy or President. The Meade incident has been closed, as Stated in yesterday's Star, in a way that will be undoubtedly satisfactory to all par- ties concerned. The President grants his application to be retired, and in so doing takes occasion to administer a severe re- buke in a dignified way. This action is the result of a conclusion that the lack of available information rendered court-mar- tial proceedings impracticable and profit- less. On the 9th instant Admiral Meade made formal application to be retired on the 20th instant under the forty years’ service clause. Secretary Herbert forwarded the application to the President with a recom- mendation that it be granted. The President’s Action. The Presideht’s action is shown in the following indorsement of the recommenda- tion: “EXECUTIVE, BIANBIO g ay 20, 18% “The within Scogmeemi fs is approv- ed, and Rear Admiral R. W. Meade is hereby retired from active service in the navy, pursuant to section 1443 of the Re- vised Statutes. The President regrets ex- ceedingly that the long active service of this officer, so brilliant in its early stages and so often marked by honorable inci- dents, should at its close be tarnished by conduct at variance with a commendable career, and inconsistent with the example which an officer of his high rank should furnish of subordination and submission to the restraints of wholesome discipline and manifest propriety. (Signed “GROVER CLEVELAND.” Promotions to Follow. Admiral Meade’s retirement willeresult in the following promotio! Commodore L. A. Beardslee to be rear admiral, Capt. J. A. Howell to be com- modore, Commander Nicol Ludlow to be captain, Lieut. Commander C. T. Todd to be commander, Lieut. G. Blocklinger to be lieutenant commander, Lieut. (junior grade) L. M. Garrett to be lieutenant, and Ensign W. B. Hoggatt to be lieutenant Gunior grade). Admiral Mende Here. The retired admiral is in this city, where he has been ever since his detachment from command of the North Atlantic squadron. He has not been near the Navy Department, and so far as known, has made no effort to see either the President or Secretary Herbert. As a retired officer he ts still subject to all the naval regula- tions, except that he cannot be given active duty, except in time of war. His applica- tion for permission to go abroad has been revoked, and he cannot leave the country, even as a retired officer, without permission of the Navy Department. His salary on the retired list is $4,500 per annum. ——__-e. Marriage Licenses.

Burke and John Savary against Eugene Carusi and others. The judgment of the court below was in favor of the plaintiff in each case, and the appellate court reversed each judgment. Mr. Claughton sued to re- cover a claim for professional services, ob- taining a judgment below for $1,011. Mr. Savary sought to have vacated a certain deed in fee ai-d deed in trust, which he-had given one Thomas H. W: illiams, he agree- ing to exchange property for a claim of Williams, which the latter agreed to as- sign to him. The papers were placed in a box in one of the local safe deposit com- panies, each mar having a key to the box. Williams, it was charged, abstracted the papers and placed the deed on record, bor- rowing a certain amount on the property, and then disappeared, it is claimed. Wiill- jams 1s also cla‘med to have had the Dis- trict Title Company pass upon the title, whereupon Mr. Savary prayed the coyrt to set aside the conveyance. The Court of Appeals holds, however, that while certain conditions were not performed by Williams to entitle him to the deed, the instrument was not thereby invalidated as against in- nocent parties, declaring that if Mr. Savary was satisfied to take the risk of so. deposit- ing the deed and assignment he must abide by the consequences, SS Guide Boards for the Suburban Roads. To the Editor of The Evening Star: It may be like painting the rainbow and doing other labor of supererogation to say that the suburban roads of Washington are surpassingly beautiful, but they are, and I shall say so for the purpose of criticising a defect in that beauty, to wit: the absence of guide boards. In a drive last Sunday, over some unexplored territory, I went two miles out of my way to get to town, and I saw several other people doing sim! larly. It is quite embarrassing to be com- pelled to ask the way to Washington when one is almost in sight, and yet there is such a maze of main roads and bridle paths and woody ways over all the territory north of the boundary that only an expert can reach a Small guide expensively obviate this difficulty, and give the visitor an opportunity to enjoy the suburban beauty, instead of involving him in a brain-wearying problem of finding his way.

AFFAIRS IN Big Break in the Canal Bank Has Been Repaired. The big break, on the two-mile level be- low Williamsport, has been repaired, and boats are once more passing. It is report- ed that over sixty boats were tied up at this pdint, forty-five laden ones, headed for Georgetown, and fifteen light ones on their way to Cumberland for new loads. Great dispatch was used in the repair of the break. Canal men say the closing up of this break was accomplished with more facility than any similarly sized one in the canal’s history. In a day or two there will be a big mass of coal in town. Forty-five or fifty boats, bearing an average cargo of 115 tons, will come in at once. There is a big demand for coal again, and the vessels are coming into port steadily to carry it away. They Were Married.

The people of Harlem, to the west of town, sre engaged in organizing them- selves into a formal representation to ap- pear before the Commissioners and appeal for the establishment of grades and the running of street lines that building opera- tions may progress. The very steep grade of the lower part of Foxhall road as it bends into the con- duit will also command the consideration of the representation. Horses are put un- Ger a terrible strain to pull loads up this incline. It is one of the steepest in this section, Notes. The commencement exercises of the Lin- thicum Institute will be held on June 6, The annual May procession of the chil- dren of Trinity Sunday school will be held next Sunday afternoon. The number in line will probably be larger than ever. New motors for use on the Tenleytown and Georgetown line have begun to ar- rive.

On Monday night, at the inn above named, James Dilworth, alias ‘Jem- my Fat,’ a baker, led into a room full of comp: with hands bound and a halter rovnd her neck, his wife Agnes, a comely woman, about twenty-seven years of age, who is a winder at a mill, and offered her for sale by auction. She was ‘put up’ at a shilling, on which a girl in the room offered ‘‘a shilling more.” One of the men bid half a crown, and after the ‘chattel’ had stood at this some time she was ‘knocked down’ to him. During the even- irg, however, Hy. Gudgeon, a factory operative, gave the purchaser 6d. for his bargain, making the price to him 3s., and she was transferred to him. We are in- formed that Dilworth and his wife, who have been married some time, lived very unhappily together, and that he has had cne or two children affiliated on him since his marriage, which was the primary cause of their quarrels. During the whole time of the ‘sale’ she took the affair quite good- humoredly, and seemed nothing loth to part with her legal lord and master.”—Liverpool Courier, Can any civilized portion of the globe furnish a parallel to this? We hope not. In the nineteenth century, and in “Chris- tian England,” the mind can scarcely con- template such an act without shrinking into despair for the doom this barbarism must entail on the people who can permit such scenes to be enacted among them. And yet it is nothing new in Lancashire. How the press of England would ring out its comments and fling its censures with merciless vim were such a scene as this to occur in the United States or in any other civilized country. A. ——— Rock Creek Church Yard. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Why was it made a cemetery? And why should it now be known as a cemetery? As it was long known as a church yard, and is now in reality a church yard, and has been for more than a century, so we think it should be known and called a church yard, “God’s acre,” much more and much rather than a cemetery. It is possible that Congress might have granted us a charter with cemetery rights and*powers, but as this was uncertain, and would require much time and effort, it was concluded best to incorporate under the general act for se- curing cemetery rights. But as the old ves-- try and church, and church yard, are the same now as before our incorporation, only our church yard has grown and been en- and beautiful church yard in the world, and so stands alone without a peer, and so we covet the name of church yard much more than cemetery; though we are both. God's acre by Divine right and man’s acre by secular charter. It may be asked, why make a point of this? I answer for many reasons, but chiefly for two reasons—There is much that is cheerful and comforting ta living near an old parish church, with its hallowed hopes overshadowing its reposing dead; but there is none in a mere cemetery; and, secondly, as a church yardewe are something gréat; but as a cemetery, not much. Hence, for one, I know it and speak of it only asa church yard, Bishop Coxe says: “Bury me not in a necropolis.” I say, Amen. J. a In the Quinn Case. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Referring to the paragraph In yester- day’s Star headed “Mr. Quinn Was Ac- quitted,” I desire to say that the house 787 13th street is not a “nest of fortune tellers or massagers,” as alleged by Quinn. Quinn is not a clerk in the War Department, or any other department. He was never chiet of police of Buffalo, and was never heard of there. WM. HUGH ROBARTS, 737 13th street.
