to-day when It became known that
First Lieutenant G. n. Turner, adju-
tant Of the Eighteenth infantry,
was under arrest ut Fort Clarke.
charged with very serious
offense. He is accused OF embezzling
5000 belonging TO his regimental baud.
II appears that Lieut.. Turner has been
acting treasurer for the band, and had
been made custodian OF all funds re-
ceived by the musicians for playing at
various places throughout the state, as
permitted by army regulations. The al
legged culprit will be brought here for
trial by court martial. Gen. Stanley snys
that as the funds embezzled did not be-
long to the government, Lieut. Turner
cannot be convicted of theft and punished
accordingly, but he can be reprimanded
and reduced to the ranks, which will
probably be done.
