Pardoning the Deserters.

Senator Plumb has written a letter to
the President relative to the pardon Of
deserters from the army He asks that
proclamation be issued, granting am
nesty TO the soldiers and sailors of the
United States who have deserted since
1874. when President Grant granted a
general pardon 1t is estimated that
since this order was issued, over AZ, 900
men have deserted, and, of this num-
Der, only $3.50 have returned to the
service by surrender or arrest, Senator
Plumb severely crticises the articles of
war, under which the army is governed,
and says they are not only antiquated,
but make no adequate provision for the
control Of the officer in his dealings with
the men under his command. He has
had several conversations with Mr..
Harrison regarding the matter and it Is
understood that the order will be issued
in II few days.

Batton on Postage.
CNew York GraphicJ

NaNtN lbIh
There has been more or less discussion
about the possibility Of one-cent postage
being accomplished under the present Ad-
ministration, especially as 1t was advocated
In the platform Of the Republican party
adopted at Chicago. The matter has been
under consideration by Postmaster General
Wanamaker, and there is an official an
nouncement that he thinks 1t unwlse to
press the matter at present, because of the
need of improved postal facilities rather
than cheaper postage. ExPostmaster-
General Frank lIatton, who Is now editor
of the Washington Post, has been IN New
York for several days. He said to me to-
day that such was Mr.. Wanamaker's de-
clsion, and went on to say; ~ think Mr..
Wanameker is in every way sound In this
decision. We do not require one-cent
| postage. The people are satisfied TO
pay the present rate; but we do
need better aud more expeditions service,
which will require additional eXpendi-
lures. If we had one cent postage these
expenditures could not he made without a
| large deficit being created, which would
have to be met by appropriations II is
hard work now TO get the necessary appro-
| priations for the service, and II would be
harder If the receipts We're lessened by the
adoption Of the one-eent policy while
further expenditures were being made To
improve the service. It is better to i'm
| prove the service first and let one-cent
postage come later, when the Department
has become self-sustaining. II might be a
wise aud popular movement TO give one
cent postage rates on local letters. In cities
where there is delivery system it seems
foolish that the rate for drop letter should
be the same as fora letter that Is sent across
the continent or to a foreign country.
When wss AZ the head Of the Department
I gave AIDS matter very thorough inyesti,
CATION. ana came 10 the same conclusion

The Washington critic., 1889-05-16

Newark's aristocratic people have got
something to talk about now which will
probably keep them busy for some time to
come. 1t has begun TO be whispered that
Miss Tillie FreliDghuysen, daughter OF the
late Secretary of State, is soon TO become
the wife Of Mr.. Winnie Grey, the divorced
husband Of the daughter of William X.
Travis.
To say that this rumor created lively
breeze In upper tendon is to put 1t very
mildly indeed. Many people were confident
Miss Frclinghuysen was ere long to become
the wife of Mr.. A. Pennington Whitehead,
ST., who had lived in the house adjoining
the Frelinghuyscn mansion for years aud
had long been the personifcation of devo-
tion TO her. Mr.. Whitehead is q wldower
with several grown-up children, and 1t was
thought his marriage to Miss Freling-
huysen was only q matter OF time.
But when q few days ago IT was nosed
about as coming from reliable authority
that Miss Frelinghuysen was to become the
wife of Mr.. Grey, well known in this city,
people, after the first moment of In
credulity, bethought themselves that some
years ago both Miss Frolinghuysen and Mr..
Grey had evinced liking for one another
and that the attachment was not hastily
formed one.--[ New York World.

losEpH MEHELER,s CASE.
The Successor of soIari Brothers 4
-

The Successor of Solari Brothers In
Court.
The case of Joseph Meheler, who has
been arrested for keeping on unlicensed bar
at Solari's place on Pennsylvania avenue,
came up In the Police Court to-day, the
question being whether or not the Commits
sioners had the right to refuse his license.
Commissioner Webb took the stand and
delivered a lengthy lecture, dwelling upon
the obnoxious phases OF the place. Mr..
Wheatlcy was OF the opinion that the Com
missioners had the right to refuse license
to place as well as to a person.
Said he: "The place kept by the Solarls
has been a notoriously bad place as far as
observance of the license law is concerned.
This year we absolutely refused license to
place kept by the Solaris, and Mr.. Solari,
in order to get a license, made bill of sale
to his father. This time II was absolutely
refused. We thought we had a right to
close place that had such reputation.
Then Mr. Meholer presented himself MS the
successor of the Solnris. lie produced let
ters as to his good character. He prom
ised to take down the name of the place, TO
have none Of the Solaris about the place.
We found, however, that the name had not
been taken down, and that one OF the So
laris was still about the place"
Judge Johnston, who appeared for the
defendant, asked whether he did not know
that the initials had been taken from the
sign.
Mr. Webb replied that he did not know II
personally. lie had, however, given them
permission TO keep one of the Solars abou,
until Meheler became familiar with the
business.
"Do you claim the right to compel q
hotel to change its name when II becomes
obnoxious to youp' asked Mr.. Johnston.
Mr.. Webb explained that its being
obnoxious TO him made no difference. TIL,
question was whether IL was obnoxious tc
the community.
Mr.. Meheler said that his house was FIRE
quented by Congressman and diplomats
and he didn't see where any bad reputation
came in.
Judge Miller imposed fine Of Sl05, ant
an appeal was taken for the purpose o
testing the questions in the Court in Gen
eral Term. This action does not neces
sarily sustain the position of the Commis
sioners.
