ARMY COURTS.MARTIAL
Recommendation of the Acting Judge
Advocate General.

The annual report of Col. Lieber, acting Judge
advocate general OF the army, shows that dur
ing the year there were 1888 trials by general
courts-martial, including twenty-five trials of
commissioned officers aud two courts of in.
Quiry. The number of trials by garrison and
regimental courts-martial was 10, ,224, making
total of II, 207, decrease of 345 in the general
courts-martal (the first decrease in seven years.
and d decrease of ,627 In inferior courts The
opinion is expressed that judge advocates
should be excluded from secret sessions of
courts, and 1T is recommended that
officers of the army be empowered
to take deposition evidence. Attention is
called TO the lack of Jurisdiction for trial over
discharged military convicts. 1t is stated that
the army is OF one opinion upon the advis-
ability OF entrusting 10 commissioned officers
within certain limits the power OF summary
punishment The lack OF power of a court-mar-
tial TO punish civilian witnesses who refuse to
testify is said to be likely to lead 10 An entire
failure OF justice in some cases. Attention is
also called to the lack OF uniformity in the pun
ishments prescribed by courts-martials for
similar offenses. particularly in cases of deser-
tion, and 1t is suggested that a scale OF punish
ment should be adopted and the evil remedied
by legislation.

THE CONTROVERSY WITH THE TREASURY Off.
GALS VIRTUALLY ENDEp-THE COMMISSION.
EEs WILL SEND In THE ESTIMATES.
The District subcommittee of the committee
on appropriations had the Commissioners be-
fore them from 10 q. m. until along in the after
noon. The bill was gone over item by item and
the Commissioners gave their opinions upon
each appropriation. A member OF the sub
committee when questioned by STAR reporter
this afternoon said:
ut is too early to indicate any changes that
we may make, rs We are just going through the
bill and obtaining the views of the Commits
sioners. Hereafter we will discuss and deter
mine the appropriations"
The question Of submitting the estimates was
raised and discussed quite fully between the
members OF the subcommittee and the Com
missfoners. The latter were informed posi-
lively that the committee could not receive the
estimates except from the Secretary of the
Treasury; that from no other source could they
take jurisdiction Of estimates and act upon
them. 1t was finally practically decided that the
commissioners should submit their estimates
To the Secretary of the Treasury in accordance
with the legal views OF that official and OF the
appropriations committee. So that the con.
troversy is virtually ended. Another member
OF the subcommittee stated that when the
Commissioners had the law fully explained 10
them they appeared to be willing TO comply
without any opposition.
