WASHINGTON, Dece mber 21.-H. A.
Glidden. agent of the Treasury Depart
ment at Seal Islands, St. Paul and St.
George, from 1882 to 1885, was wit
ness before the House committee on
marine fisheries, Investigating the al
legged outrages in Alaska. He said he
read a part of the outrages, etc. in the
newspa Ders, but did not think there
was any truth in them. He never
heard of any cases of criminal assault
on the islands, and no complaints of
the seduction of females reached him.
If there had been any complaints to
make he would have heard of them, as
the people looked upon him as their
protector. The men employed on the
islands by the Alaska Company were
kind to the natives, and their presence
there tended to elevate and civilize the
people. Adjourned to January 7th.

lions to Prevent Il,

In his annual report to the commanding gem

that the number of assertions in the army in
the past year was Z, 4S6, an increase of 1856 over
the preceding year. The tables submitted show
that the large proportion Of deserters were Of
men Of less than three years. service. Meas
ures have been taken for years." the report
states, ito investigate the cause real or alleged
OF desertion, but with Indifferent success, be-
yond indicating that the principal causes are:
Dissatisfaction with army life and its restraints;
restlessness, with recklessness of obligations as
sumed, and desire to secure transportation to
distant and supposed favorable points in the
west. Desertlon, no more than any other
crime, can never be eradicated but it would,
am convinced, be greatly lessened by the adop-
ton OF remedial measures. the most effective
of which are the reduction of term of service
from i've to three years and the authorization
OF Congress for the purchase of discharge by
men OF good character, but who are DESTROYS to
leave service for which they find themselves

Notwithstanding every effort has been made,

warrant to secure the necessary recruits to fill
the army, it is still more than 800 below the
authorized strength of Is, 900 enlisted men, and
many OF the regiments are greatly reduced.

At about o'clock last evening a well-known
lady went out with her husband to walk off a
headache. Going through Dupont circle she
was suddenly thrown almost of her feet by a
youth Of about seventeen years. who, with
other grown-up boys. were engaged in rude,
boisterous plays, endangering the limbs of
quiet passengers. The lad. running at full
speed, struck his head with great force against
the lady's cheek bone causing her to see stars
She was led home to a few DAYS of seclusion

to avoid them In their own back yards they
may at least hope to escape injury s.

honor who in September, 1881, watched over
the body of their assassinated comrade as it

boutonnieres adorned the lapels of those pres
ent. Before the menu was discussed the COM
pany listened with unbroken attention to the
eloquent address of the retiring president
Judge J. J. Noah, and then everybody ate
drank. and was merry. The first toast was Our
Country" responded to by Judge Noah The
next sentiment was ''The President-elect of
the United States" and to this Gen. r. D. Mus
sey did full justice. Our Fallen Comrades"
was drunk In silence, more than one of those
present remembering that although this was
but the seventh reunion yet seven of that faith
full band which watched over the old COM
mander's body had responded to the taps of
the grim trumpeter.
Comrade Crittenden, the first commander Of
the guard, gave very interesting account Of
his settlement at San Diego, Cal, whittier he
went four years ago to grow up with the
country" and as evidence of his prosperity
he became financially responsible for the ap-

Slight Fires.

An alarm from box No. Isl was sounded last
night about IL o'clock for fire In Huyler's
candy store, No. 1103 Pennsylvania avenue, ad-
joining The STAR Office. The fire started in
the basement from an overheated furnace, and
had burned through the floor into the store.
The flames were discovered in the store by a
young man named Gawler. and Officer Ellis
turned in the alarm. When the fire depart
ment responded the front door was broken
open and the flames were soon extinguished
The damage to the building is estimated at
about $50. But for the promptness of Chief
Paris and his men, serious consequences
might have resulted. as the cellar was stored
with infammable material.
Last night about o'clock, fire was dis
covered In the basement of Hamburger's cloth
ing store, No. 621 Pennsylvania avenue. The
IRE originated from the furnace. which il is
thought became overheated- Office Sutton sent
local call TO No. engine house. but before
the company responded the flames were
brought under control with the chemical ex-
unguishers. The damage is estimated at about
SlOO beside the damage to the stock by smoke.
The building is owned by S. F. Merrill.
