The Tarockmorton Court Martial.

Especial to THE EERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
New York, Dec. 24-The court-mai tial
of Major Charles B. Throckmorton, of the
Second artillery, United States of America,
for conduct uubecoming an officer and a
gentleman on charges preferred against
him for having duplicated his pay vouchers
and having drawn checks on banks where
no held no funds, was continued this morn
ing in the board room of the army building.
Major Throckmorton arrived early, &C
companied by his son and his lawyers, j.
M. Lewis, r. H Savage and Lieutenant
George S. Cartright. When the members
of the court filed in at II o'clock they paid
no attention tc Major Throckmorton and
ignored him entirely throughout the pro-
ceedlngs. An effort was made by one of the
majors lawyers to have court adjourned,
owing to the accused's chief counsePs i'll
ness. The request was refused, and thus
Colonel Barr testified about the worthless
check. MIR. Lewis said that Major Throck-
morton would show that the check business
had been all square; that when he drew
his first check be had not been notified
that his account was closed and that he
sent a check down, IS he supposed, in time
to meet the first enc made to the order of
Colonel Best, who was in Newport.
AT any time would the state of Major
Throckmorton's account enable him to
make such check.
Eyes, sir; but not after June 5, when
the account was closed"
MIR. Lewis respectfully submitted that
the account was not closed until he had
been notified by the bank or had authorized
them to close it in person or in writing. On
this little fact and its ultimate disposal
hangs much in the charge, which the de-
Tense claims TO be comedy of errors
I'VE ADMIT that Major Throckmorton never
had never had any account at the bank on
which checks were drawn" sad Mr..
Lewis. The defense propose to show that
Major Throckmortion's intentions were
honorable, and that If he didn't have an
account on the Lincoln bank, he thought
that he did, which is just as good"
The trial is creating considerable excite
ment In military circles at Fort Schuyler
and in Westchester, where there are per-
sons who believe that Major Throckmorton
is being prosecuted by officers of the fort
who may be interested in his retirement
from the service

to reduce Its maximum rate to less than S.;

Work at the Lake Shore well is progress

obtain supply of fuel to run the works on
the large well drilling.
Among the points to be considered in the
gas franchise is the ripping up the streets
Tor new mains. If new ones are to be laid
1t should be done at once, before paving
proceeds too far. In some cities where the
blocks are not SO large, mains both for gas
and water are laid in alleys. and if plan
OF this kind could be adopted here it would
be better.
Every body is taking advantage of the gas
to make known his business to the world,
and nearly every personal letter that goes
out from the city contains some reference
to the recent developments.
