COURT MARTIAL DENIED.
Secretary Tracy Deals Abruptly
With Reiter.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. = Secretary
Tracy has written a letter to Com
mander Reiter who was censured for
his action in the Barrundia affair, deny
ing his request for court martial and
telling him that the department regards
mis- case as having been finally disposed
of. The secretary says in part:
s.You state that the departments
action in your case constitutes public
reprimand, and that this is a punish
lnent that can only be legally Inflicted
by sentence of a naval general court
martial. Your statement shows that
you are ignorant of the first principles
of naval discipline. The assumption
that the secretary of the navy cannot
pronounce rebuke. public or private,
upon all officer for a breach of disci-
pine, or failure of the performance of
duty, without obtaining the sanction of
a court, is an unheard of proposition.
The department impartially awards
praise or blame to the officer who de-
serves the one or the other, as occasion
may arise; and the practice is as old as
the department itself.''
The secretary also reminds the COM
mander that he was not censured with

REED MAY RULE.
In Which Case Free Coinage VIII
Fare Badly.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. Pending
action of some kind in the house on the
silver bill, the active discussion of the
question has subsidized. and members of
the house are awaiting developments.
The coinage committee has the key to
the situation at present, and the gen.
eral disposition is to give the commit
tee an opportunity to show what it
means to do before making predictions
or outlining the course to be pursued
in the future. Some effort is max
ing on the part of the gold adj
herentS to have the bill kept in
committee, but the silver men are san
gulne as to their ability to defeat such a
move. At least two of the Democratic
members of the committee are gold
standard men. and each side shows them
great consideration in the present con-
dtion of affairs. With their assistance
the silver men could order report made
to the house, and it is asserted that this
will be done without much delay, though
it is not contended that these Democrats
will commit themselves to vote for the
bill, but merely that they will agree to
secure consideration for it. The speaker
entertains the same views as ever OH
the question of free coinage, but there
IS reason to believe that he is not pre-
pared to go to the most extreme meas
ureS in order to prevent the mat
ter coming up and to bear the burden
of disS abstraction which would thereby
be created in the silver wing of the Re-
publican party. Moreover, Mr.. Reed
has said that he was by no means sure of
successfully fulfilling such task this
year. because of change in existing
conditions and OF a growing sentiment
favorable to silver. The vacancy i'm the
coinage committee occasioned by the
resignation of Mr.. COnger, of Iowa. has
never been filled. and the speaker has
not yet determined what to do in the
matter. The committee cannot meet
before next Wednesday. and as the out
look before then may assume many
phases it is not likely there will be any
thing important determined on until
the committee has another meeting
Should there be failure to report bill
there has been some talk of taking it
out of the committees hands by a vote
in the house, but this would be an UNI
usual course. and one in which there
might be sufficient opportunity for de-
lay to kill silver legislation.
There is some talk among the Rnpub-
licans of the adyisabilty of getting to-
gether on the silver question in the in
tereSt of party supremacy. but the pros
poets of such an agreement are remote,
for the radical silver men say they will
not abide by any caucus action on this
question. If there were assurances that
the measure would be signed they
would probably be willing to accept
free coinage of the Am erican product.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Jan. 16.-Two
weeks ago Joseph Carbon, French
man, came to this city, accompanied by
a travelling companion named Louis
Lambert. They engaged rooms at a
boarding house kept by Mrs. A. r. Lee
Diet, who is of French birth. Lambert
told Mrs. Ledet that Carbon had re-
Gently come into possession of large
fortune and that the latter had $50, 600
in cash, and diamonds valued at SIS, 900
with him. Mrs. Ledet, who is hand
some young widow, says that several
days ago Carbon proposed marriage to
her. and Wednesday, as an evidence of
his sincerity, gave her $4,000. 1t was
after banking hours, and Mrs. Ledet
locked the money in closet in her
room. Yesterday morning she dis
covered that the room had been entered
and the money stolen. Carbon and
Lambert were both missing yesterday
morning, and no trace of them has been
found. Mrs. Ledet's theory is that
Lamberth .aS murdered Carbon and
stolen the money. She has sworn out a
warrant for his arrest, and employed
detectives on the case.

LANGsToN ON FORCE.
The Virginia Congressman Pines
for BayOnets.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-In the house
Mr.. Langston of Virginia made speech
in support of the elections bill. Black
as the men of his race were, there were
no men who could go ahead of them in
devotion to their country and to its free
institutions. Congress was confronted
with the question whether every Ameri-
can citizen. every American electOr in
the North and the South should be per-
mitted to WELD free ballot in the in
terest of our common country and OF
free institutions. The genuine Amerl-
cans (mainly found in the Republican
party, though some were Democrats by
mlstake) were standing up boldly to
meet this question. 1t was not alone
the negro who should be protected in
the South; it was the white man who
voted the Republican ticket. Abuse
the negroes if necessary, but for Gods
sake stop abusing the white man. Stop
insulting white women because their
fathers or husbands voted the Republic
can ticket. He would pass bills and
pile up penalties and put behind every
ballot soldiers until they rose to the tops
of the mountains and kissed the stars,
IN order to put these men and women in
the sure consciousness of their prOtec.
ton by law. In conclusion he made an
earnest appeal for the passage of the
elections bill, and was heartily ap-
plauded by the Republicans.

SILVER POOL.
The Committee Will Compel the
Attendance of Witnesses. So

WASHINGTON. Jan. 16.-The silver
pool investigating committee held a
preliminary session this morning for
the purpose of arrangingta plan of pro.
cedure. The session to-day was secret
bur future meetings will be with open
doors. The resolution under which the
committee is acting and the newspaper
publications which were made the
basis of the resolution were read over
and discussed. The committee ad-
journed after directing subp9nas to
issue for MesSrS. Stevens and Apper-
son, the two Washington correspond
ents of the st. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat, which paper made the original
charge. The principal question con-
sidered by the committee in its secret
session was as to it's power to compel
the attendance and testimony of wit
ness. The conclusion reached was an
affirmative one. The committee held
that as the charge made substantially
imputed bribery to members and con-
stituted an offense for which members
could be expelled from the house, the
constitution conferred power with
which to compel testimony to be given.
The question of conducting the investi-
CATION with open doors was decided by
the adoption of a motion offered by
Representative Oates that reporters be
admitted to future sessions.

it power to conduct the investigation
outside of Washington if deemed adj
visable. Adopted. The house then

Allen, of Michigan, in the chair on the
District of Columbia appropriation bill.
Mr.. Rogers, of Arkansas, after paying
his respects to parliam eDtary law as
recognized by the speaker, passed
on to a brief discussion Of the free coin
age bill. He appealed to the Republi-
can majority not to ask once more the
distinguished speaker to assume any
further responsibility in regard to the
silver question. Wnen, in the history
of the country. had speaker ever met
the demands of his party more gravelY
or more courageously than mad the
present speaker-or more diSastrously?
Had it come to this that after the
speaker had suffered terrible penalty re-
sulting from the responsibility thrust
upon him by party caucus, that his
party WOULD ask him to make still fur
Their sacrifices? He (Mr. Rogers) sub
mitted to gentlemen on the other
side that, if there was further reSpOn-
sibility to be borne on this silver ques-
ton, it should be borne by gentleman
on the other end of the avenue and by
those who openly and boldly denounced
free silver. Quoting from Mr.. Ingalls,
speech In which he denounced the de-
monitization act of 1878, he (Mr. Rogers
said that some people had accused the
senator with crawling on his belly to &C
quIre popular favor. He didn't believe
that the senator did so; but, if he did,
he crawled to the sound principles of
Democracy, and he (Mr. Rogers) warned
his Republican friends who threw OBJ
stacles in the way of free coinage of
silver that they would have to crawl in
the dust before they could get back into
sympathy and favor.

SUGAR BoUNTIEs.
Attorney General Miller Rules
Upon the Subject.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. = Attorney
General Miller, at the request of Secre-
tary Window, has rendered an opinion
as to whether the tariff act of Oct. 1,
1890, authorizes the commissioner of in
ternal revenue to issue the licenses
therein provided for. prior to April l.
1891. and to pay manufacturers the
bounty on sugar produced between May
l and July, L, 1891. After a COM
plete and full discussion of the
question the attorney general says that
the sugar produced between May 81 and
July l entitled to bounty under
the act, is sugar of domestic man
ufacture, and that the only sugar
of domestic manufacture produced be-
tween the dates given is maple sugar.
To pay bounty on maple sugar and
not on other sugar, he holds, was not
the intention of congress, for to do so
would be paying bounty for fifteen
years on maple sugar and a bounty for
fourteen years on all other sugars
which are not produced in the spring,
but which mature in the summer and
fall.
1T seems them" concludes the attor-
ney general, THAT it was not intended
that bounties should be demandable OIL
sugars produced prior to the first day
OF July next"

he will certainly veto it unless it under

entire accord with Secretary Window
on the subject, and the latter's OPPOSE
