WHINE FROM A TRAITOR
Ex.Minister Faulkner whiDes to the sta'e De-
Dsrtment. from Fort Lafayette, that 10 WE
arrested without having been at al u'Sio!ai !"
tba United States. He dOes not thihA 'hS' nc
has done as much to deserve imprisonment Id
frss country, as did Mr.. Ely, the Congress
man from Rochester or MI huSon' tno "oi"-
missioner under the Vepezuela treaty
Ths yireinian further whines that his conhne-
cent Is risid, aud is undermining his health.
OF LET bis friends take notice that he has not
vst been required to cook in his turn In the
Kitchen, as Congressman Ely has been. he also
Ass the advantage Of Messrs. Ely and Huson IN
that he can acquire his liberty at any moment
By taking the oath of allegiance to the Govern
msns which has fed and honOred him.
GOV. CURIN's MISSION.
Gov. Curtin aud staf arrived BY special train
thi, evening. He will inspect the Pennsylvania
regiments, presenting each with hag from the
State. Tomorrow. On Wednesday he will visit
Gen. Banks's column. On his return he may
stOp at Baltimore, on the invitation of Gen. Dix,
extended to him on the train. A large number
Of the Philadelphia soIid men arrived this even
ing, and viii be introduced to the President TO-
morrow by Secretary Cameron.
THE TREASURY NOTES
At least two hundred clerks in the Treasury
Department are at work every evening clipping
Treasury notes. They leave their desks at
O'Clock. return Immediately after dinner, and use
the shears till 10 O'Clock. They receive no extra
pay, but have the privilege of resigning. About
thirty clerks are busy signing. The call for the
notes, both the demand and the 3-lOth per cents
is greater than can be satisfied. Numerous officers
take the 3-l0th notes in preference to gold or
demand notes. and send them home to their families
THE ACCOUNTS OF THE DEFAULTER GALLAGHER
The Navy Department has nothing whatever TO
DO with the accounts or deficits of Gallagher, the
gambling navy paymaster. His accounts are in
the Fourth Auditors Office, in the Treasury De-
partment. Secretary Welles has nothing to do
with bin.
TFLEGRAPHING THE DEPARTMENTS.
The use of the telegraph is All unendarable
nuisance to the Government. The Adjutant-
General has to pay about 81 400 month for
dispatches, nine out Of ten of which could just
AZ well be transmitted through the United States
nail. The Secretary of War, more unucky,
has TO pay nearly $4,000 month for kilograms.
The selfish and impatient resorters to the wires
would hold their hands if they knew that their
Qnprnciped use Of this cOstliest mode Of CON-
municaton preudiced their applications. We
viii assure them it does so.
A LIEUTENANT ACQUITTED--A QUARTERMAsrRR
RsPRIMANDED.
At court-martial held at Sandy Hook, Nd,
second. Lieutenant Bruce B. Rice of Company
I, 1st Pennsylvania Regiment, accused Of aiding
and abetting the twenty-four hours mutiny of
ais company st Harrisburg, was acquitted. Lieu
tenant G.. T. Tuthi of the 9th New-YOTk Mill.
Tia Regiment was convicted Of disobeying the
orders Of Gen. Banks relative to the proper use
of teams, in that he furnished to a wagOnmaster
a horse with which to 90 for beef AS, however.
he received his appointment only the day before,
and ss the disobedience did not inure to his per-
sonsl advantage; his sentence was merely to be
rcprimanded Id general orders. Gen. Banks ap-
proves both findings.
now THE ARMY RETIRING BOARD GETS on.
= The Army Retiring BOard makes slow prog.
rsss With the work before il. Many Of the
officers summoned show fight and much time is
aecesssrily consumed in taking evidence Some
If the Oldest officers claim that they are in sl
The Sd Artillery, for example, who entered West
Point ia 1901, and the army in 1906 and who
must be between seveDty-iive and eighty years
Of age, says that he has never known sick
hour, and runs up stairs Ike boy. Colonel
Benjamin L. J.. Bonneville Of the Sd Infantry,
who entered the Academy in 1913, and the army
in 1916, insists that he would rather be killed
ct Manassas than be retired at bis age. On the
other hand, Lieutensnt-C Colonel GOuverbeur Nor
ris of the Ia. Infantry processes his willingness
TO be put on the Retired List, although he did
not enter the army til 1923, and Major Camp
bell Graham Of the Typographical Engineers
who left West Point in 1922, considers himself
too much disabled by exposure and wounds to
he useful.
