A COURT MARTIAL sNUBBED.
Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan Disapproves
the Finding in the johnson Case.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-The proceed
ings of the court martial convened IN this
city for the trial of Capt. William S. john
son, United States army, retired, nave
been made public. Capt. Johnson was
tried upon charges of duplicating his pay
accounts, and the court martial returned
verdict of not guilty. Lieut.. Gen.
Sheridan, who reviewed the pro-
ceedings, set aside this verdict,
however. In his Endorsements he
says that the court should have admitted
evidence touching the character of the
accused. The Lieutenant General further
says THAT the accused admitted the
execution of two sets OF vouchers for his
pay for the same month is shown by the
record, and the evidence also shows that
he allowed these vouchers to pass beyond
his control, 80 that both were presented
and paid.
CLEARLY IRREGULAR.
while it appears that the accused
made certain private arrangements with
persons holding his vouchers, yet the
United States was no party thereto and
was in no manner bound by them, and
although there may have been extenuat-
ing circumstances and the Overdrawn
pay WAS refunded, IL nevertheless remains
that the government was exposed TO a
lTduu, lot WDlCn CapIs JOnDSoH ChHuOt De
held eXcusable. The proceedings, find
ings and acquittal in the case of Capt.
William S. johnson, United States army,
retired, are disapprOved."
The release OF the accused from arrest
has been ordered and The court martial
dismissed. This action Of the Lieuten-
ant General in disapproving of the find
ings OF the court acquitting the accused
is said to be almost without precedent in
the administration of military justice, al
though there can be no doubt as to its
legality. The accused stands almost in
the same position he occupied before the
trial, although he cannot be again tried
for the same Cffense.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.--Durlng the recent
labor difficulties at the stock yards, the
men employed by Jonn Craig g. Co. kept
at their work. Their system was ten
hours pay for eight hours work. For
several days after the resumption OF the
ten-hour system by the other packers,
there was no move made by the firm
20 adopt the general system. Yesterday,
however, the firm notified the men that II
was Intended TO 20 back TO the ten-hour
system, and the men at once quit work
and were paid on. Good feeling prevailed
between employers aud employed, and the
matter will probably be settled soon.

II used to be a custom in man coun-
tries for the journeymen and laborers
to consider every Monday a day set
apart for idleness, and no inducement
would be strong enough to make them
labor.
In the sixteenth century it was a GUS
tom in Germany to decorate the
churches with blue on fast days. The
tradesmen began to keep their fasts by
neglecting their work and then servants
followed the example. Having nothing
to do, the common people spent the
time in drinking and eating, until TO
day is Feasting Monday" became a
proyerb. The custom, at first confined
to innocent amusements the evening of
fast days, was soon extended to every
Monday in the year, and, once firmly
established, it soon grew TO be distin-
guished by tumults and debaucheries.
Nothing proved effectual to prevent the
disorders until the matter was taken
up by the Diet.
In 1881 the Diet published an edict
a%bolishing the keeping of Blue Monday.
Very little attention was paid to it,
however, and 1894 the Emperor Francis
renewed it. In 1772 a decree OF empire
was made abolishing Blue Monday, but
even then it was many years before
there was much change in the observ-
ance of the day, the journeymen tailors
being the last to fail to devote every
Monday to the worship of Bacchus in
spite of any rewards which might be
offered to tempt him to honest labor
