PRISON FIGURES.

The report of the civil service reform
association, impeaching the census bust
ness as carried on by Mr. PORTER, has
about completed the popular distrust of
any of the work of that department. 1t
is probable, however, that in some of
the secondary features there has been no
attempt to dIstort the figures, and they
may approximate the facts. In the sta
tistics of pententiaries. for instance.
the number of inmates in the country
may be about A., 233, as the census bull
letin alleges. The average of the time
sentences is five years and 270 days. But
one in sixteen or more is serving life
sentence. The terms of female convicts
average shorter than the males, probably
by reason of the feeling that woman
can never be as bad as a man,
whatever her crimes. A noticeable fact
is that there is a wide difference in the
length of terms in states similar in all
respects and near together. For some
reason the statistics seem to show more

HAVANA, Oct. 5.-The military ex-

When an officer searched the body of
Senior Hernandez he found in one of the
pockets of his clothing a letter adj
dressed to the civil authorities of Ouivi-

Garcia, and the supposition is that he
placed it in the pocket of his victim TO
show his contempt of the efforts made
by the civil and military authorities to
effect the capture of the outlaws.
The murdered couple leave four chill

his wife, who was pregnant, was thirty

The Surgeon General Touches on
Army Morals

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-Surgeon Cen
eral Sutherland has made his annual re-
port to the secretary of war upon the
operations of his bureau during the
year. He says that since the passage CT
the act of March 3, 1891. making the
period of renewal of artificial limbs
three years instead of five, congress has
failed to make the necessary apprOpria-
ton to meet the additional expenses,
and the result will be deficiency of
$24l, $50 for the present fiscal year on
this account. The report speaks of
the efficiency of the hospital
corps as shown during the
Sioux campaign; urges the necessity of
offering inducements to enlisted men to
enter its ranks, ana suggests that S6
per month be added to the pay of pri-
Yates in the corps. Good results are said
to have followed the adoption of the
new system of Identification of desert
erS, based on records of permanent
marks and scars.
AS to the general health of the army,
the report shows that while the number
OF sick reports was larger than during
the previous year, the number of men

the army, against 4l.43 in 1889, and
56.6S. the average during the previous
decade, and in this connection the
surgeon general notes with satisfaction
that so many of the larger posts are at
the lower end of the list. Treating

thing is certain, that drunkenness
is on the decrease among the troops.
The cOlored soldier is seldom on sick
report from this cause. Every medical
officer who refers to the canteen system
approves of it, with one exception"
The surgeon general says that the
canteen has relieved our military posts
of one-third of the cases of alcoholism
that formerly tended to the demon ali
cation of the individual, the infractiOn
of discipline, assaults, injuries and
death.
In conclusion, it is strongly recon-
mended that at each post there be
established a systematic course of
athletic exercises to improve the phys.

from military drills.

The Finding of Guilt Held to Be
Justified.

gelical association to-day took up the
case of Bishop j. j. Esher, and it was
resolved, after hearing a full and de-
tailed report of the proceedings of the
trial in Reading, Pa, first, that the said
trial conference was legally con-
stltuted and acted in &C
cOrdance with our book of
discipline: second, that the evidence
justified the finding of guilty, and the

taken UP, and at the close of the days
session was still under consideration.
