characterization in the Signal Ser
vice.

vice.
WASHINGTON, Oct 2S.-About half
the class of the signal service men I'M
%dergoing a course of instruction at Fort
Myer, are being tired by court martial on
the charge Of characterization. The men
felt they were being u~niustly and harshly
treated by their instructor, Lieut.. Frank
Green, of the signal service, and when he
added to this gross profanity, indiscrimin-
ately calling them names not to be re-
Deated, they resolved to make an effort
for relief a meeting of the class was
held which resulted in a petition to the
chief signal officer, setting forth their
grievances and appealing for relief. The
petition was answered by an order for the
court martialing of all the men who had
signed the petition, on the ground Of in
subordination.
Gen. Hazen said to night the men were
being court martialed not for expressing
their grievances, but for holding a meeting
and combining for that purpose, which he
said was almost equal to mutiny. Lieut..
Green has been reprimanded by Gen.
Hazen for his conduct The class is being
defended by Congressman Bu%tterworth
and Henry Wise Garnett, and it is expec-
ted the court will be over to morrow. and
the findings be submitted to Gen. Ilazan
The subject will not come before the war
department unless there should be a e
tence of dismissal, which he hardly thought
probable under the circumstances.

Seven Years in jail for Debt.

NEW YORK, Oct. ga lengthy ar
gument was heard to-day before Judge
OGorman, of the superior court, upon a
question as TO whether Augustine r. Nc
Donald, a subject of Great Britain, who
has been seven years in Ludlow street
Jail, should be allowed to defend the suit
upon which he was incarcerated. Nc
Donald is SO years old, and is the son of
Capt j. Mcdonald, who with POO fol-
lowers left Scotland in l772 to escape re-
llgious persecution. Mcdonald became
bankrupt in 1869, though he had a claim
against the government for $1,000, 900
worth of cotton destroyed during the war.
He failed for $3.50, 900 and when his as
sets were sold he purchased them Tor $50.
Through another claim the commissioners
awarded him 1927, 900 for his cotton.
He is inearcerated upon Il claim made by
the attorneys who secured him the money
from the government.
The decision was reserved.
