THE ARMIES COURT MARTIAL


WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE court mar
tial appointed to try Captain Armes for
conduct unbecoming an officer and gen.
tleman met at the war department this
morning and the members of the court
qualified. In response to the question as
to whether he had any objection to the
membership of the court Captain Armes
replied in the negative, but suggested that
in this case the cart had been placed before
the horse and that not he but Captain
Bourke and Colonel Gibson who had
made the charges against him should be
standing upon trial.
The court took a recess until l o'clock
to give an opportunity for Captain Armes
to secure counsel.
When the court reassembled the defend
ant announced that he had selected
Captain Knox, First cavalry, as his coun-
sell Inasmuch as Captain Knox was a
member of the court martial it was nee
essary that he should first be relieved.
The judge advocate therefore secured the
consent of the secretary of war to the ar
rangement and Captain Knox was relieved
by special order He stated that he was
not prepared Immediately to proceed in

was not with musical people alone that he
was fayorile. II was n musical crowd,
however, that came together TO render the
last hours OF his stay In Memphis the
most pleasant OF all. There were about
twenty OF them, who adopted the methods
best suiting the pleasure OF themselves and
their friend. The initial number on the
impromptu program was a musicale in
the parlor. This exhausted the repertoire
OF the entire list OF gentlemen, solos and
concerted selections. From there the
party adjourned TO the private apart

payne, cigars, regrets and more
singing were enjoyed until time TO leave
for the depot A largo four.hone bus
was in waiting, and in this the crowd was
driven down Main street, cnlivcning the
trip with stirring songs. At the depot
singing was INDUCED until the conductors
''all aboard" and the moving train
