Sailmaker Fiunklin the Principal Witne: Today—Reports Made to Him by the Colored Gunners. The second day’s sessions of the court of inquiry that Is being held at the navy yard began at 10 o'clock this morning. It is Impossible to say how long the court wil! continue, as the hearing yesterday de- veloped the fact that all is not smooth sailing in the class of seamen gunners now under instruction at the vard. The feeling against the colored men in the class seems to have been carried to a very considerable length and the testimony of the ensign in charg> of the class, given yesterday, was to the effect that a determined effort was being made by the white members of the class to drive out the colored men. At the time the hazing is said to have been com- mitted there were three colored men under instruction in the class in gunnery, Sea- men Johnson, Thompson and Jackson. One er has joined the class since, but his me will probably not iigure to any ex- tent In the present hearing. After the opening of the court this morn- ing some Ittle time was spent behind closed doors in the usual preliminaries, in- cluding the reading of the record of yester- day's session. When the doors were open- ed the taking of testimony was at once resumed. Sailmaker Franklin's Story. The first witness called to testify was Sail- maker Franklin, who {s on duty In connec- tion with the class as officer of the day. He stated that early In the morning of October 13 the colored man Johnson came to his room and showed him a wound which had just been Infligted on his head. In answer to a query from Franklin, Johnson stated that he had no idea who his assailant was. The wound above Johnson's eye was a severe one, but the witness sald it was im- possible for him to surmise what sort of a weapon was used to inflict it, other than that it was evidently a blunt one of some sort. He at once sent Johnson to the doctor and then made a personal Inspection of the men's quarters. All were in their cots, and there was no way of telling who had com- mitted the assault. Continuing, the witness said that on the morning of November 11, about 7:30 o'clock, Thompson came to him and reported that some one had emptied the contents of a cuspidore, sawdust, ete., into his bed and locker, but an investigation of this incident also failed to disclose the identity of the man who had committed the outrage. The Liberty Book in Evidence. The witness then identified the “liberty book” of the night of October 12. Ensign Terhune, who is acting as recorder of the court, then placed this book in evidence as showing what members of the class were not in quarters that night, thus narrowing down considerably the number of men among whom the guilty parties would eventually be looked for. The same meth- od of procedure was also followed out for the night of November 10. Thompson‘s bed, continued Franklin, was the only one reported as having been used. ‘Thompson was down for liberty that night, but was reported in the liberty book as not going. The witness said that he did not personally know of any members of the class being compelled to eat at a separate table from the others-or of any attempt being made to ostraciso them. He had never heard it as a common rumor in the ss that some of the members were being hazed. Since he first heard of the mal- treatment of some of the class he has re- doubled his vigilance in the hope of fixing upon some one as the offender, but so far his efforts have not met with any success at all. t In answer to a question by the court, the witness stated that Seaman Thompson ac- companied Johnson when the latter re- ported that he had been struck, but he did not say that any one had molested him, nor did-he have anything to say with reference to the assault upon Johnson. It was possible, continued the witness, for men who are out on liberty to return before the'r time is up and to go to bed without reporting their return until the next day. In other words, the records in the liberty book might not prove absolutely that any of the men on liberty were ou@of quarters at any particular time. Mate Cleveland Knew Nothing. Mate C. H. Cleveland, who Is associated with the preceding witness in charge of the class now under investigation, was then placed on the stand. He said that he had only been ing his duty since No- vember 15, ‘le he had heard rumors of trouble in the class, this trouble had oc- curred before he was ass:gned to the duty. He was, therefore, excused from giving further testimony. At this point an adjournment was taken until 1 o’clock. When the court reas- sembled Boatswain Cooper, who was the third officer of the day at the seaman’s quarters, was put upon the stand and told of the troubles among the men as he knew of them. aoe Cases Advanced. ses have been advanced out of their places on the calendar of the Supreme Court for hearing on the first Monday in January as follows: ‘The Southern Pacifie Railroad Company vs. the United States, Involving the title to certain lands In the vicinity of Los An- eles, Cal., and known as the “Overlap cuses. ‘The United and Willlam Jos ing under sect’ States vs. Samuel Zucker phy.

Suit was brought against Zucker & Josephy by the United States to recover the value of certain Invoices of artificial flowers imported by them. URS es ae eee t A Decoy Letter Decision. An opinion by Justice Brown was handed down in the Supreme Court yesterday in the cas2 of George Goode, a letter carrier in Roxbury, Mass., convicted of embezzling money from letters. In passing upon the roints raised the court decided that a decoy letter addressed to a fictitious person is a letter within the meaning of the law, when it bears the semblance of a letter, and that it Is not necessary in such cases that a car- rier shall take the letter from a regular letter box in order to render him criminally Hable in opening it. Army Orders. The leave of absence of Second Lieut. Al- fred C. Merillat, eighta cavalry, has been extendad two months. The following transfers in the second in- fantry are ordered: Second Lieut. Hiram McL. Powell, from company I to company F; Second Lieut. Peter E. Marquart, from company F to company I, oo Currency Sixes Duc.

If Favorable, It Might Have an Im- portant Benring on the Subject of a Protective Tariff. Friends of the sugar bounty suggest a rea- son why the carrying of the question of the constitutionality of that bounty to the United States Supreme Court might have an effect in direct opposition to the purposes of the administration, or at least of a part of the administration. ‘They say that if this question were de- cided by the United States Supreme Court by holding that a bounty fs constitutional, it would be playing directly in the hands of populists, who favor paternalism generally, and are not opposed to bounties, if they are granted to benefit the farmers throughout the country. Result of a Favorable Decision. If the Supreme Court should declare the bounty law constitutional it will, It is said, emphasize some of the contentions of the populists, and would place them in a better position to advance the cause of paternal- ism. Of course, if Secretary Carlisle should permit the question of the bounty to go to the Supreme Court it will be becaise he be- lieves It to be unconstitutional. But before his final decision on this question he will probably be called upon to constder not only the above obje-tion, but also the effect of a Supreme Court decision on the question of a protective tariff. Many free trade demo- crats contend that a protective tariff Is in the nature of a bounty, and that it is uncon- stitutional. A Supreme Court decision on the sugar bounty might decide this question. It ig said that the republicans would not fail to make use of a decision by the Su- preme Court which would sustain what they have always contended, that a protective tariff or any bounty is constitutional. It Rests With the Seeretary. Controller Eowler having referred the question to Secretary Carlisle with a rec- cmmendation that it be sent to the Court of Claims, has placed himself outside the ranks uf those having an interest in the set- tlement of the question. It will be for Sec- retary Carlisle to decide whether the pay- ment is to be made, and if he allows it to be settled in court the bounty claimants vould not let the matter rest until it had reached the United States Supreme Court. This would take a very long time. In the meantime the friends of the bounty are impressing upon Secretary Carlisle their claim that Congress has appropriated money for the payment of this bounty and authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to make the payment, the President has ap- proved the measure with his signature, and there seems nothing to be done according to their view except for him to settle the account. Politics im the Question, 2 ‘The important political reason for the de- cision of the bounty question is still being urged upon the administration as a reason for its early settlement. The democratic party 1s conceded to have a rather weak kold upon the state of Louisiana. If the administration should fail to pay the boun- ty appropriated by Congress it will be im- portant campaign material to be used next year by the republicans,and there are many politicians who believe that in the presiden- tial election the state might go republican. Shrewd republicans are even now consider- ing means for bettering their chances in Louisiana by having a republican Congress adopt a resolution instructing the Secre- tary of the Treasury to pay the sugar bounty without further delay. Then if Secretary Carlisle should order the pay- ment the republicans of Louisiana will make the most of the resolution adopted by a republican Congress. ‘This _ resolution would be quoted to show that the repub- lican party is deeply interested in the wel- fare of the sugar growers and it is thought would tend much to strengthen the republi- cans of Louisiana. The Indians Refuse. The commission to treat with the five clvilized tribes in the Indian territory has submitted its annual report through Gen. Armstrong, a member of the commission. The Indians refuse to enter voluntarily into any arrangement that will change their present political condition. They fear that if they did they would lose control of their own affairs, and be deprived of their land It now remains for Congress to provide leg- islation, if the original alm for which the commission was create] is to be carried out. in any form peeitively and perima- nently cured by a new theory of teatment; cit ferences. c.

Annual Sules More Than 6,000,000 Boxes, POLITICAL GOSSIP IN OHIO Two Republican Senators for the First @ Time in Years. Major McKinley to Resume His Law Practice—Some Fanciful Re- ports Denied. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 25, 1895. As the most important result of the recent election in Ohio ex-Governor Foraker will be elected to the Senate, taking his seat March 4, 18 Then for the first time since the days of Ben. Wade will the Ohio repub- licans hold both the seats in the Senate belonging to the state. There is not the shadow of doubt about Mr. Foraker’s elec- tion. He was nominated by the t state convention at the same time the state ticket was put in nomination, and the republican members of the legislature-elect have since thefr election unanimously expressed their choice for him. The serious illness of Senator Sherman and his advanced age have led to some specula- tion in the last week as to who would prob- ably succeed him. Undoubtedly it would be McKinley. The governor will retire from office on the sec- ond Monday in January, and will once more become a private citizen. He will return to his old home at Canton and occupy, it is said, the little house in whi M McKirley began housekeeping immediateiy after their marriage, twenty-five years ago. He will resume the practice of law, nominal- ly, though locking after his presidential nomination interests will undoubtedly en- gage the most ef his time. It is undoubtedly true that all of ex- Governor Camphell's campaign — expenses were paid by the state committee, and ae Brice wes the state committee's chief source of revenue. The story that overnor Campbell was paid a fabulous ealary for his time and work as guber- natorial candidate by Senator Brice should be taken with considerable doubt. There \.as an opportunity in the campaign for the ex-governor, it should be remembered, and had he been elected or come anywhere hear it, he would have become a formidable cand‘date for the democratic nomination for the presidency. Of course, that nomination does not seem to be very desirable just now, but looked at from the other side of the fall elections it seemed desirable enough to work for. Though the story about Senator Brice traveling over the state in his private car gathering facts from station agents as to political conditions in the state is rather fanciful, he had found out in various ways three weeks before the election that the case was hopeless. He even anticipated that the republicans would carry the state by a plurality exceeding 000, Indeed, he and Govern <inley seem to have reached the onelusion, though few republicans sovernor were claiming more t ality for thelr part ¥ u voted at his home in Canton in the for nécn of election day, and on the way down to Columbus made the prediction that the republican plurality would not b 60,000.

Se SURGERY WITHOUT PAIN. Important Operations the Patient is Fally From the Philadelphia Re The meeting of the Philadelphia County Medical Society last evening was rendered particularly interesting on account of the rresentation of a paper by Dr. T.

To Enforce the Law Against Reck- F less Driving. The constant jeopardy in which the lives of the people stand through the reckless- ness of careless drivers has instigated a special watch among the police with a view of preventing, as much as possible, and punishing these guilty of violation, of this law. Yesterday Oscar Lee was taken in. He is colored, ard it is alleged that he was strongly intoxicated. He violated two branches of the law—that of turning a cor- ner with rapidity unwarrantable, and that of reckless driving on the town’s highways. i Lee was called to halt by Officer the policeman was told he would be ridden over if he didn't get out of the Lee's arrest followed. There is a going up from the citizens for the suppression of careless and reckless driving within the city limits, and partien- larly on the crowded streets. There have been so many life-destroying accidents -and serious injuries of late recelved that the people are rising against the danger, and insisting on the enforcement of the law against it to the letter. Badly Cut. San Francisco Mannarico, careless of the laws cf decency, was ar- tested last night. When caught hold of the fellow had a store hammer in his hand, which he aitempted to use on the offizer. is upraised hand was caught by Officer Trussell. The Italian is a powerful man, and the struggle that followed was violent. = prisoner was finally gotten to the sta- tion, : The man had a serrated cut on his head that looked as if it had been inflicted with a_strong-handlei saw blade. A small artery had been severed, and blood flowed copiously. The man said he had received it through a fall against the edge of a curb- stone.
