The charge of desertion is to be removed
rom the records of those who enlisted in the
navy or marine corps without obtaining dis
charges from thu army, where the re-enlist-
inent was not for the purpose of securing
bounty, provided that the absence from serv-
ice did not exceed four months, and that the
soldier served faithfully after re-enlistment.
Any soldier wio, after desertion, was re-
stored to duty by competent commander, is
not to be deemed to rest under any disability
in the prosecution of any claim for pension.
The charge of desertion is to be removed
from the records of soldiers who served in
the Mexican wal, where the soldier served
out the time of his enlistment, or for six
months or more, and until July 4, 1S4S, and
left his command without receiving a dis
charge; and where the soldier after the
charge was entered, voluntarily returned and
served out bis tine.
The provisions IF the act are not to be con-
strued so as to relieve any soldier who left
his command from disaffection or disloyalty,
to evade hardships, or in the presence of the
enemy mot being sick or wounded, or while
under arrest or under charges; or in the case
of a soldier of the Mexican war who did not
actually reach the seat of war
All applications for relief under this act
are to be filed within three years after July

SECRETARY BAYARD is q patient man
but be can't stand everything. He allowed
himself to be misrepresented and CRITICS
ed by the newspapers about this Samoan
affair for long time, but he has turned
on the sensation mongers by taking the
public into his confidence. showing just
how small foundation there really was
upon which to build great sensation.
He shows that Germany has violated no
treaty with the United States: that no
American property has been destroyed nor
the rights of any American citizen inter-
fered with; that Germany has given the
United States absolutely no cause for war
and that by express agreements with
Germany and England the United States
is prevented from attempting to main
tain protectorate over the islands. In
fact, Mr.. Bsysrd's statements make it
plain that he upheld the honor of the
country in this matter, and now he has
turned 1t over to congress to decide
whether we shall inaugurate new policy
in relation to this insignificant little
group of islands in the South Pacific
ocean. The absurd rumor that Mr.. Bays
ard and Secretary Whitney had fallen out
over this question had no foundation
whatever. The administration is har~

LONDON, Feb Sit has been ascertained
that the vessel that the captain of the Largo
Bay reported having sunk in collision off
Beachyhead Monday night was the Glencoe,
Of the Glen line. She had on board crew
of fifty two men, twenty-three of whom were
Chinese. The foremost of the Largo Bay
was broken by the force of the collision, and
as it fell crushed the deck house A fearful
storm accompanied by snow was raging at
the time, and it was impossible for the look
outs to See the lights of the Glencoe. The
latter forged ahead in order to cross
the bows of the Largo Bay, but failed to do
this and ran at full speed into the bark, cut
ting away ten feet of her bow The water
tight compartments were all that kept the
bark from sinking. The crew of the latter
were dazed by the shock of the collision
They lost sight of the steamer directly, hut
saw the crew struggling in the water. 1t
was impossible to render any assistance as all
the Largo Bays boats were smashed The
sails of the bark were torn to shreds by the
wind, and boy was carried overheard.

hcatlon to Consul HAROLD NJ srwALL.
General Sewall that his resignation was de-
sired There is no doubt, however, that this
action on the part of the secretary grows out
Of dissatisfaction on account of Mr. Sewall's
utterances during his examination about Sa-
moan affairs before the congressional COM
mittee
Mr.. Sewall, when seen last night by rep
resentative of the United Press, said II am
thoroughly sincere when say that am glad
Of to-day's developments. My formal resig-
nation will be sent to the state department
tonight, and will know that have been
freed from humiliating position. have nc
grievance. Isimply deplore that was forced
to deceive the people who trusted my govern
ment.
al am asked to resign because the infamous
secret is out, and that secret is that while the
conference of July, 1887, was being held in
Washington City to arrange the Samoan
question, Germany was permitted without
protest from the United States to send her
iron-clads into the harbor of Apia and place
our government in position that any fourth
rate European power would have resented at
the hazard of its existence
~ was forced to see the Samoans suffer, as
they are suffering now, from following my
advice given under the instructions of Secre-
tary Bayard Whatever was known at the
state department yesterday was known ten
days ago, and yet was permitted to make
my arrangements to start on my return
journey to the islands, to be detained within
a few hours of my contemplated departure
Il await with some little impotence the fe-
moval of the injunction of secreC y from my
testimony before the senate committee My
testimony will show that every step of Ger
man aggression in Samoa was reported to
the state department, and ample warning
given of these steps"
The pith of Sewall's testimony before the
committee, which is referred to above, is as
follows: That Secretary Bayard, before
Sewall left for Apia, assured him that the
United States would not acquiesce in Ger
man control of the island, and instructed
him TO deny report to that effect in any
way he chose; that after his arrival at Apia
Sewall received dispatch from Bayard in
structing him to advise the natives
not to resort to force in oppos-
ing the Germans, as the treaty powers
were in conference on the Samoan subject
and the natives would be protected in their
rights Sewall complains that he gave the
natives assurances of the support of the
United States, and then was not permitted to
make the Assurances good when the Germans
began their arbitrary proceedings.

Mr.. RANDALL has accomplished his
purpose In Fastening through the house
the appropriation bill in charge of his
committee. The deficiency bill alone re-
mains to be disposed of by the house. AT
the time partial distribution of the APP
preparation bills was made among the
various committees. the argument was
that 1t would facilitate their passage. As
a matter OF fact, Mr.. Randall's commit
tee has now accomplished its work. while
the military and naval bills are yet in the
background, and the river and hsrbor
bill is struggling In the grasp of Mr..
Sowden and his fellow obstructionists.
II does not appear that great deal was
accomplished by the charge. except. per-
hsps, to deprive Mr.. Randall's committee
Of its omnipotence.

Women Are Scorched.

The Guests Have a Close Call and Several
Women Are Scorched.
SUTHERLAND, Fla, Feb S.-The new Hotel
Sutherland here was destroyed by fire early
Wednesday morning, the guests and the help
narrowly escaping with their lives in their
night clothes A large excursion party from
Omaha were the only guests. and all of them
lost their clothing. jewelry, purses, and cash,
valued at many thousand dollars, and all the
hotel help lost their wearing apparel Moth
ing was saved Several of the ladies were
severely burned but it is thought that no
lives were lost All camped out during the
remainder of the night in huts built of
boards and bushes The hotel was valued at
$4,000
George DeitZ, one of the Omaha excursion
lists, says that the scene was a thrilling one
The help consisted of twenty persons, mostly
girls Shrieks filed the air, as the frightened
women tried to get out of their rooms and
found the hall was filled with smoke and
flame. The men organized and began rescu-
ing the imperilled ladies. Ropes OF sheets
were made, and nearly all the women were
lowered from windows in this manner
Several in their fright, jumped and sustained
bad cuts and bruises. Nearly all were in their
night Clothes and some with hardly a rag to
their backs as the fire had burned off their
light cotton dresses as they were being con-
Quoted through the Railways on the first ap-
pearance Of the fire. Several women would
have lost their lives but for the bravery of
colored men, who made three daring rescues
Two women who were lowered from the front
windows second story were terribly burned
before they reached the ground.
After all had been rescued improvised huts
for shelter for the women were made and
their wants attended to as we'll as possible
The men had no shelter and passed the cold
night in dreary discomfort. The Omaha
party was composed of c. B. Taylor and wife,
DR.. Coffman and wife, J. p Deitz, Mrs.
Smith and daughter, and ten others, all
prominent people of that city. They lost
their wearing apparel, trunks, and thousands
of dollars worth Of jewelry, diamonds etc.
Not one of the entire party saved a dress
Mr.. Deitz came here yesterday to secure
clothing for the party. In fifteen minutes
after the first alarm the hotel was one mass
OF flames, and in forty-five minutes the walls
feu In 1t is miracle that any escaped, as
the panic was great.

Wells Prociamento.

The simple appearance OF call in the
ARGUS for convention of the tariff re-
form league in Chicago for this month
has apparently had the same effect or
Boss Wells that shaking red flag in THE
face Of bull would have. In his family
. organ this morning he comes out with 6
lot OF bslderdash and rot which must bs
nauseating to every sensible man-demo'
crat or republican. From reading his
communication one would infer that the
confederacy was still in the saddle,
that the result of the last presiden tIal
election was not yet thoroughly settled.
and that the democrats were attempting
to thwart the will of..the,people and re-
tain control of the government.
Mr.. Wells is chairman of the Rock ISL
and republican county committee. and
all his political utterances are supposed
TO have an official flavor. but the ARGUS
will not impugn the good sense and fair
ness Of the party by presuming that it en-
dorses any such crack Drained sentiments.
In fact We have heard the communication
severely criticized and condemned by
many leading men in the party today.
His words imply that Mr.. Wells Is q
disciple OF the hre-eating senator from
Kansas. He rants and paws the air in
the same fashion, and makes about as
much noise in q small way. Great,
ing the impression that he wants
to let the public know that he is still on
deck. 1t Is generally known that Wells
Is partial to bleeding Kansas and some of
Its ideas. but 1t was hardly thought be
would 20 to such an excess as to make
himself uproariously ludlorous. But tina,
there is hidden meaning for Wells cant
at this time 10 clearly discernible. He
has reason for making himself psrticu-
larly prominent. for is he not candidate
for the Rock Island postoficei Most as.
suredly. He no doubt thinks that this
blood and thunder" TRADE :. will make
himself solid with the powers tn be, but
it should have the opposite effect. 10
1884 he tried to stand In" with Blaine
by telegraphing him At the time OF
his nomination that Black Hawk wss
solid for him. Evidently Wells is cast
ing an anchor to windward."
