says: Sergeant McGoYran, of the Signal
| Service, who got into trouble by refusing

influence to bear and succeeded in having
his punishment limited to a reduction to
the rank of private. The colored observer,

| office ever since he was assigned to duty
| there, will shortly be relieved, as his pres
ence in an official capacity is distasteful to
