WASHINGTON, Aug. l9.-Assistsnt Sec.
rotary BGssey hos rendered an important
decision on the pension claim OF Daniel
h. Kaufman, late OF company A, Fourth
Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers,
which was brought before him on q
motion for reconsideration. In his
decision the assistant secretary rescinds
rule number 1876, made by Commissioner
Black, September 4th, 1885, and over
rules the opinion of ex Assistsnt Secre-
tary Hawkins in the same case, that q
.'dishonerable discharge" from the ser
vice operated os ''bsr to pension" He
also holds thGt rule number 1856 was al
erroneous Interpretation OF tho statutes
granting pensions to the soldiers of the
late war tor disability incurred in the
line OF duty, and declares that the char
acter of soldiers discharge cannot
affect his claim for pension on aocount
of such disabilities. He holds that o
"dishoporable discharges" is q penalty
for a specific offence against tho service,
for which the soldier may be punished,
but that the penalty cannot include nor
relate to q claim for pension based upon
disability. The two things are held to
be wholly diuiinct from each other, mud
are not governed By the same legal
considerations. The opinion re.estab
fishes the ruling of the department which
prevailed through all administrations

FEe Escaped Through a Legal Loop
hole and Married ssis Second Wife
BALTIMORE, Aug. 18.--John Waohter
and Margaret Taylor were married the
second time to-day. Their first mar
riage was illegal, Wachter committing
bigamy, and leading dual life for some
years. In 1876 he married Margaret A.
Beck in Brooklyn. They removed to
Baltimore in 1880, and year later he
met Margaret Taylor, Of East Baltimore.
While counting the second Margaret he
lived happily with his first wife in the
extreme western part of the city. After
years courtship Wschter married Miss
Taylor, never changing his name or giving
her the slightest intimation OF a previous
marriage. For three years he supported
the two households in this city, neither
Of which suspected the existence of the
other. He was apparently devoted to
both families. After three years, how
ever, Wachter abandoned his second
wife and three children, went to Rich
mond and engaged in business. The
trst wife then learned how she had beer
imposed upon and Wachter was arrested,
brought 60 Baltimore and indicted for
bigamy. Through shilful legal ma
n~uvring nolle prosequi was entered in
the case and Mrs Wachter No. pro
cured divorce, leaving her husband free
to marry his second choice.

CAMBRIDGE, MD, Aug. l9.--Frooeed-
ings under trial Of hebeas corpus for
custody of Martha A. Pylant, q pretty
little girl OF 10 years, attracted number
of spectators to the court room in Gam.
bridge on Friday. The writ was sued
out OF the circuit court before Judge
Charles f. Goldsborough by James
Pylant, widower, of Cambridge, who is
the father of the child, against James NJ.
Easom and wife, into whose care the
father had committed the child since
tho death OF its. mother. Mr.. and Mrs.
Easom, who have no children, have be-
come deeply attached to the child, and
Mrs. Easom shed tears and evinced
the deepest concern during the trial.
There were no written articles of agree'
ment signed by the father and the
custodiaus Of the child, though the father
admitted that 1t was verbally agreed
that Mrs Easom was to keep the child az
her own until she arrived at age, upon
compliance with some conditions which
he claims were broken. The little girl
who was nicely dressed, sat during the
trial by the side OF her foster mother oil
the trial table, apparently disinterested
spectator. She also occupied seat oil
the bench by Judge Goldsborough and
answered quickly and intelligently suot
questions as the judge propounded t.
her. On Saturday Judge Goldsborougt
filed an order awarding the child to hei
father. The petitioner was Represented
by Robert w. Mowbray, aud the re
spondents by D. M. Henry, Dr., OF th,

pears to have hsen fiendish murder oe-
CURED last night few miles from the

on the Omaha road was running toward
this city Engineer Douty saw man lying
ACROSS the track few rods ahead

be stopped the unfortunate man
had been cut in two. When the
train hands got off to pick up the remains
they saw another man. He started on q
dead run as the engineer approached him
and escaped into the woods. The sup

1t is learned that Mr.. Maybrick was
insured for E5, 900 in the Mutual Reserve
Fund of London and New York ehortiy
before his death. The company has
already advanced the accused E200 on

entire amount of her insurance, II neoss-
ssry, In securing her freedom.

was on the beat of terms with she prs
oner and did not think during the tfial
