Acroolsedy kerosene.

An Associated Press dispatch to the
daily papers. dated Cleveland, Ohio,
Nov. 5, says, IL. G. Car ran. of the firm
of Carran & Co., oil dealers and shippers,
was arrested on warrant sworn out by
the United States Vessel Commissioner
stationed ut Detroit, for shipping low
test refined petroleum on passenger boats.
and markingit lubricating and machinery
oil. a quantity OF this oil was shipped
to Detroit and Michigan points. Carran
claims that he bought the oil for the
proper test. He was taken before Com
missioner White, and gave a bond OF
$500 to appear next day" Thirteen
barrels of this oil was shipped to this
village and was marked on the barrels
as "Engine OIL" The Deputy Collector
under instructions fromsa special agent
OF the Treasury department, seized the
oil landed at this port. and sent sample
from each barrel to to Detroit where il
was tested. One lot of eight barrels
burned at 81 degrees, and the other five
barrels at "a degrees. according to the
Detroit test. Mr.. Carran. we understand
claimed that the oil had been shipped by
a clerk without his knowledge, but we
are Informed that one of the parties re-
ceiving the oil here received notice of the
shipment of the same written by Mr..
Carran himself. 1t was billed as coming
from the Cooperative Oil company OF
Cleveland, Ohio. The probabilities are
that the shippers will have to pay a
heavy penalty for misreprcscnting the
character of the Gil and shipping it on
passenger boats.

Drunkenness in the ARMY.

Gen. Sherman has issued a general or
der from the headquarters of the army,
in which he says: ''The President is
much concerned to find before him for
action proceedings of court-martials in
several cases where the offenses have
been tried for violation of the 3Sth arti-
Gle of war. which provides that any Off
Ger found drunk on duty shall be dismiss

it to be made known to the army that he
cannot be led to underrate the magnitude
Of the evil which the crime alluded to is
likely to produce in the public service.
No person addicted to it can expect to
be trusted with any responsible duty,
and person who cannot be trusted had
better not be continued in office. 1t must
therefore be understood that any clemen-
cy which may have been heretofore ex-
tended, by mitigation or commutation of
sentence, cannot hereafter be relied up
on as basis of hope for like favorable
action. After this solemn warning a vi. :

in due course by the court martial may
be expected"

The Fortress Of hnrs.

The fortress of Kars, which was so
magnificently carried on Sunday by the
Russians, has history. The place pos
sesses great natural military strength,
and has been elaboratelY fortified under
the charge of eminent engineers, work
having been in progress upon its in
trenchments during a great part of the
last thirty years. Its general position
makes it ali important factor in any
military calculations which have Ar
menia tor their scene, and its location i'm
a rocky amphitheater clothes it with
great defensive advantages which have
been thoroughly improved. 1t has been
twice before captured by the Russians.
In 1929, it was surrounded by the army
of Prince Paskievitch, in his day the
ablest of Russian generals, aud its gar
rison was forced to surrender, the fall of
ErzerOum and occupation of all Armenia
following. In 1S54-5 it was besieged by
Mouravieff, and its garrison was COM
manded by an English officer, General
Fenwick Williams. The latters resist
ance was able and desperate, and the
seige was second only to that of Sebasto-
pol i'm its exciting interest. Ultimately
Williams was starved into capltulation.
but the Russian victory was too late to
offset rsverses elsewhere.
