Army officers are watching with anxiety the
action Of the senate upon the list of promo.
lions sent in BY the president. A Washing
ton correspondent details the status of the
proposed promotions, as follows:
10 the bill creating the Burnside reorgan-
ization commission Was q clause prohibiting
the promotion Of any officer above the rank
Of captain until after the commission had
reported and congress had acted upon their
report. The report was made in the shape
Of . bill, and although it was not passed, a
portion Of it was attached to the army ap-
preparation bill in the house, but stricken
off in the senate. In the opinion of the
secretary of war, the attorney general of
United States, and the judge advocate gen.
eral Of the army, that treatment of the
Burnside bill was action upon it by con-
greAs; hence numerous promotions were
Nude and nominations sent to the senate.
They were referred to the committee on
military affairs, and one week ago the COM
mittee decided that the construction of the
law by the secretary of war was proper,
aud recommended that the promotions re.
ceive the approval of the senate. But Sen.
sso Randolph and Senator Burnside 90,
their heads together, had another meeting
Of the military committee called, aud, after
r'considering their former action, agreed
to report the nominations back to the sen
ate without recommendation, and let the
senate for itself determine whether the sec.
rotary of war had acted within the meaning
OF the Law raising the Burnside commission

Yesterday afternoon two grain buyers
named M. T. Jaqueth and John Peters, the
frat employed by Wilcox & Williams and
the latter by Frank Hefner, had a misunder-
standing on Capitol street, and proceeded to
settle II with their fists. After fighting for
some time, and bruising and scratching each
others faces in an artistic style, b%ystanders
interfered and put an end to the contest be-
fore it was decided which was the best man.
This morning Jaqueth went before Justice
Roberts and charged Peters with assault and
battery. Peters was arrested and upon be-
ing brought before the justice plead guilty
and paid a fine of FIVE dollars and costs.
Then he wanted . warrant FOR the man who
pulled him of Jaqueth before he had finish
ed whipping him. He thought a man who
interfered in a fight in which he had no
personal interest before it was ~legitlmately
concluded by n of the parties ''squealing,''
to be punished, and thought it was .
queer law which would Justify a man in such
proceedings. OF course he was disappoint-
ed in having the o%ficious intermeddler pun
ished.
