report to the Secretary of War, saws that
IA commissioned officers, 7 West Point
cadets, 2,21 enlisted men and 10 military
conViets were tried by general courts
martial DUNG the year, making total of
$3.50. For the last five years the number
ofgeneral courts-martial has been con-
stantly increasing. In 1880 there were
1,543, in 1881 1,792, in 1882 1850, and in
1885 l,9o5. The number of garrison and
reglmental cOurts-martial was 10.985.
zen. Lleber gives extracts from the re-
ports OF the Judge Advocates of the de-
partments, embodying recommendations
on various matters connected with the
administration of military Justice. Mai,
Henry GOodfell0w, of the Department of
Missouri, in view of the large number of
deserters, suggests that enlistments be for
three years, with strong inducements in
the way ofincreased pay forre-enlistment; |;
that the troops be paid monthly instead of
bl-monthly, and half their paw be retained
until the end of the enlistment, inter-
est being paid as now upon deposits,
with provision made for allotment in
laVor OF dependent relatives, care being
taken that this allotment shall be made
only for actual relatives and not as a
means Of evading retention of pay by the
government. Greater effort should be
made to capture deserters, and, when con-
Vlcted, the deserter's term Of imprison-
ment as rule should not be less than his
untitled term Of enlistment.

formerly a clerk in it, and then
said: "This is the first complaint |

Some of these cases are familiar to me.
He asserts that Commissioner Shields, of
New York city, filed an illegal bill for
swearing United States Deputy Marshals
and Supervisors of Election in 1880. That
question / examined and decided last
July that a Commissioner is entitled to
receive a fee for such duty. The only
question is whether Barker is a better
lawyer than am. Again, he asserts
that Marshal Erhart, of the
Eastern District of New York, presented
vouchers for the payment of supervisors
of election and deputy marshals for serv-
ing five days, when they could by law
serve but one day. The fact is that the
men were allowed pay but for five. /

A Corruption Fund Against Holman

WASHINGTON, Oct. AT is said a
party left here yesterday for Indiana with
50, 100, which was raised in this city, to be
used against the reelection of Repre-
sentative Holman, of Indiana. The money
was mostly contributed by lobbyists and
claim agents, who have suffered from
Judge HOlman's COLLECTIONS" Judge
Holman has fought some of these meas
ures for the past ten years, and he has, Of
course, secured the opposition of a great
number of the hangers-on about Congress.
Some of the Democratic employees Of the
House have, tits said, clipped in in the way
OF small subscriptions. Their reason for de-
string the defeat of Judge Holman is that
he has always objected to the extra
months pay and other gratuities which
certain members so frequently desire to
vote the employees ont of the public purse
for personal services rendered them.
