NEW MEXICO PROTESTS
Against the Transfer Of the Apache In
dams to That Territory.

Delegate Joseph of New Mexico has ad.
dressed letter to the Secretary of War stating
that party of Indians belonging to the Mes
calero Apaches of the San Carlos reservation
in Arizona has recently committed depreda-
lions and outrages in that territory. The mem.
bers OF the party we're overtaken by United
States troops, some of them killed and the re-
mainder captured. He enters his vigorous
protest against removing . body of Indians of
the same band from the San Carlos reservation
to Fort Union in northern New Mexico. They
are. Delegate Joseph says. the worst Indians in
the United States. Fort Union is in the midst
OF one OF the most populous portions Of New
Mexico. TO locate the Mescaeros at Fort
Union would be to render insecure all life and
property in their vicinity, to cause an imme-
date cessation of the immigration TO northern
New Mexico and to lead the Jicarillas, who are
located within $50 mies OF Fort Union, into
acts Of insurrection and depreciation.
In conclusion Mr. Joseph saws: at can be OF
no benefit to the Mescaleros themselves to give
them opportunities to associate with the
equally depraved but less brutal Jicarillas and
thus gain ready followers in their crime, while
nothing can be worse to the JIcarillas than to
be given leaders to persuade them away from
peaceful avocations or even from vicious idle
ness to acts Of violence. The people of New
Mexico have suffered untold loss by Indian
depredations. 30 far without redress. They
cannot believe that they are now to be chosen
as victims of q new band Of marauders"

MISS BRADY'S BROKEN HEART.

promise before Judge Trueax Tuesday
against Thomas Miskell The latter is an
Enslishman, twenty-three years Of age,
musician engaged at the Olympic theater in
Harlem. Miss Brady is ffty-fve years Of age,
and although she cannot be called handsome,

The couple met in AN uptown boarding

her lover entreated her to make q will in his
favor. This she did.
Then he demanded that she turn the income
OF her small fortune over to him. But this
she refused to do. They parted in anger
and did not see each other again until some
time later, when they met in England
In a moment they were in each Others arms.
He was deserter from the British army, and
she interested herself in his behalf and had
him pardoned, though it cost her several thou
sand dollars. Then Misken was taken i'll and
Miss Brady nursed him with skill and devotion.
When he recovered he again asked her to
turn over her money to him, but again
cold prudence asserted her sway and the
lady again refused. Then he left her, az he
supposed, forever. Miss Brady followed him
to this country and brought suit against him.
Miskell denies that he made love to Miss

always entreating him to marry her.
The jury yesterday returned q verdict for the
plaintiff of six cents damages.

When Nobody Blundered.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
1t is hardly fair to poke so much fun at the
Despatch and her officers on account Of the re-
cent hasco without also giving the other side
Of the picture.
1t is within the recollection Of nearly all
your readers how actively the Despatch was
employed upon the Potomac river from the
navy yard to Norfolk and elsewhere during the
last two years Of Mr.. Artnurs administration
She was first commanded by the lamented
Dana and afterward by Lieut. Reeder. During
the whole time her navigating officer was the
late Lieut. Charles H. Amsdsn and the vessels
keel never touched bottom while he was navi-
gator, although the requirements upon her
kept her perpetually moving. Mr.. Amsden
was one Of those born pilots who seem TO have
a bump Of locality so largely developed as to
always do the right thing at the right time
when in narrow waters.
Again, in August, 1884, the steamer @. p.
Patterson, vessel larger and drawing more
water than the Despatch. left the Washington
navy yard bound to San Francisco. The writer
had the good fortune TO be passenger on her
to Old Point. Her commander, Lieut. Rich
ardson Clover, took her to sea with no trouble
Whatever, nor were her engines slowed or
stopped in the river on account Of the navi-
CATION.
While, therefore, there IL no doubt that in
the recent case ''somebody Numbered" it u
right TO recollect how much oftener, on the
same ship aud in the same service, others have
never Numbered for years in succession. COB

In answer 10 q resolution passed by the
House on the 10th calling for information a. 10
whether the contractors for the work Of lining
the Washington aqueduct were not personally
responsible for the defective work and, If so,
whether any steps had been taken for such re-
covery, also whether they or the subcon-
tractors are not liable to criminal prosecution
| and If any steps had been or would be taken in
this direction, Secretary Proctor has written to
the House letter explaining the
PRESENT STATUS OF TIE NATTER.
The Secretary refers to . letter written on
March 8, 1889, by Bsckwith 4 Quackenbush,
the contractors, to the engineer officer in which
they state that the government at that time
owed them el80, 600: that from this sum they
were willing that there should be deducted
what It would cost them to make good the
lining OF the tunnel, reserving the question OF
liability for work prior to December 8, 1887.
They formally protested against the visiting
tunnel scheme. They would also mako
good the defects prior to December
8 provided the government agreed TO
reserve for legal decision the question Of their
liability for such work. The contractors gave
se IN Ehe hs tp sG to
mence legal proceedings for the recovery OF
the money due them. Legal points arose on
these proposals, continues the Secretary OF
War, and before any decision was reached the
contractors entered suit in the Court Of Claims
for $23S, S03.62 The defense Of this suit will
OF necessity bring up the claim for damages
sustained by the United States.
TIE QUESTION or CRIMINAL LIABILITY.
The whole matter thus being in the hands Of
the courts Mr.. Proctor could not express any
opinion thereon. In the matter Of criminal
prosecution he was unable to make = statement
as 70 the liability Of the contractors or a. to
whether any steps have been or will be taken
in that direction, but he would submit TO the
Attorney General q copy of the testimony
taken in regard to the tunnel with the request
that II no steps had been taken by the proper
prosecuting officer Of the Criminal Court OF the
District Of Columbia the matter be considered
and such action taken as should be deemed
proper under the circumstances.

THE CAUSES OF pEsERTIoN
The Facts I'm Carter's Case.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
l see that you republish in the EVENING STAR
OF the 18th instant an article relating to the
court martial trial Of Lewis Carter which has
been going the rounds of the press, but which
is SO incorrect that it is due to the officers who
composed the court and indeed to the army
that the actual facts should be stated. Carter
was tried by court martial in 1885 and con-
victed of desertion, robbery assault and rape.
To the last three offences the woman upon
whom they were by the court found to have
been committed positively testified. IT, as
alleged, she has now made affidavit that
she was not criminally assaulted, l am not
aware Of 1t. 1t is highly improbable that she
has because 1t would be an adm ission
that she committed perjury at the trial and
because no such paper has been received at
the judge advocate generals office, to which il
would naturally be referred. 1t was proved at
the trial that imme diately after the assault the
woman, being still in a condition Of great
agitation and bearing on her person marks OF
the assault, made q complaint of it to an
officer, and that she subsequently twice iden-
titled Carter as her assailant 1t WAS also
proved that on the same day that the assault
was committed, and as soor as Carter became
aware OF the fact that suspicion was directed
against him, he fed. His conviction was fully
justified by the evidence before the court.
The record OF its proceedings is in the Judge
advocate generals Office where il may be
examined by anyone who wishes to verify these
statements. Carter has never been under a
sentence OF ninety-nine years, as it wal
reduced by the reviewing authority to thirty
nor is it true that he has been pardoned by the
President and the court martial reprimanded.
The only foundation for these statements il
that on petition for clemency, in which the
woman joined, the sentence was further
until May Is, 1891. G. NORMAN LIEBER,
Acting Judge Advocate General.
