DEANS DETACHMENT.
Orders Given by Captain Wood to
the Lieutenant.
Ee Was Duly Warned by His Superior Officer
Strong Testimony for the Defense.
The Prosecution Rests.

When the general eourt-martiAlw which is en-
gagged in trying First Lieutenant Deano of the
Fourth Cavalry convened yesterday morn
ing the members had all changed their
seats, and sat in a row, with Presiding OH
Ger Lieutenant-Col Arson Mills in the
center. At previous sessions the court had
been scattered along the length Of the hail.
The change was made on account of the
poor acoustic properties of the meeting
place.
p The greater portion of the morning ses-
sion was occupied by the attestng of the
different witnesses who had been on the
stand the day before. Judge Advocate
Hunter read to each witness his entire tes-
timony and asked if they desired to make
any corrections. The witnesses then signed
their testimony and were discharged.
The prosecution then called Sergeant
Zeller of Troop l, Fourth Cavalry, who was
in Deans detachment when it is alleged he
had an attack of katzeDjammer. Zeller
was as positive as Trumpeter Harris, when
questioned, that Lieutenant Dean was
drunk at tile Baxter House and at Mirror
Lake on June 10th last.
The witness stated that while asleep in
camp his commanding officer came in from
ball and woke him I'D by staggering around
and swearing at cigarette which he could

CAMP MARKHAM Santa CRUZ, July g.
The thermometer in the fat Sergeant's tent
gave true representations on Tuesday.
The day opened with a heavy fog, and
high wind prevailed during the day. But
these were preferable to the intense heat
which has characterized some of the days at
camp. The day was quiet one, devoted
almost exclusively to routine work. The
drill work has been feature of the camp,
and, If continued during the week and per-
formed as on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, Camp Markham will not have
been in vain.
Acknowledgement Allen arrived and put
in the afternoon making "quiet sneaks," as
Marquis Maiden put it, into company
quarters and guard-tents. inspecting every
thing, but paying particular attention to
buckets and wash-basins and soap.
The wind was so high that the beach was
almost deserted and every one made for the
camp, so that Camp Markham was the Mecca
OF the pilgrims to the seaside. Brigade
dress parade retained the visitors, and the
ceremony was satisfactory, Adjutant Gen.
eral Allen and Captain O'Connell being out
in the field overlooking things, and General
Dickinson, in fatigue, experimenting.

trouble long after taps. At the First's
headquarters a concert was given, and this
was the only special attraction.
Wednesday was delightful day with the
thermometer only at so at noon. The drills
went off with vim. All were satisfactory
ard some were all that could be desired.
The First is drilling almost exclusively in
the skirmish, and apparently take as natu-
rally to the work as ducks do to water.
The attendance at camp was as shown in
the following figures, it being the middle of
the week when the battalions would be at
the lowest mark.

One of the most noticeable features of
camp is the earnestness and zeal with which
everything is attempted. The behavior of
the men is not open either TO serious criti-
cism, and after taps only reasonable per-

The citizen soldiery must be regarded as
rough diamond; no one can expect from il
the smoothness, polish and brilliancy of
execution of the regulars. But what it lacks
in these it makes up in earnestness and the
willingness-even eagerness-to receive sug-
gestiOnS. As Major Stanley, Brigade Officer
of the Day, reported:
While being so well Informed. it occurred TO
me from the manner In which the challenging
was done by the sentrirs IN several instances
that sufficient instruction had not been given ;
that IL, while such sentries had an Idea of some
of the duties they should perform, they lacked
knowledge OF many important details, thus show
ing that the instructions Of the officers respecting
such duties had not beenrepeated given as often
as they should nave been. Later, during my tour,

AID FOR IN ONE YEAR {.
Farmers in the West in Re-
markably Good Luck.
Dun s. Co. Make Still Another Bright
Report Concerning Business
Trade Good In Every Par
ticular.

r. G. Dun g. Co.. Weekly Review OF
Trade says:
In the business of the country no re-
action appears, nor are there signs OF
disbursement. In very many cases
farmers will realize on the wheatgrown
this year more than the entire cost OF
their farms. Unreasonable hot weather
has for the time retarded some trades,
but change is already noticed. 1t is
also most encouraging fact that these
favorable conditions have produced as
vet no speculative excitement or craze
such as often prepares the way Tor
swift and disastrous reaction. 1t is for
tunate for the country that apprehen
sion of financial difficulty this fall has
powerfully restrained the speculative
tendency.
Boston reports closer money mar
ket and satisfactory trade. AT Phila-
delphia money is in fair demand, though
there is complaint in trade as to slow
collections. AT Baltimore the shoe
trade exceeds last years. At Cleveland
trade in dry goods and clothing has
been retarded by the weather, but other
trade has been good, and at Cincinnati
some improvement is seen in the shoe
trade.
At Chicago some increase is seen In
receipts of corn, oats and cheese, an
eighth in cattle, a third in wool, and
wheat receipts are five times and rye
receipts eight times last years, but de.
crease appears of half in lard, third
in cured meats, and fifth in barley.
At ST. Louis trade and manufactures
are active and money close. At Mime
apolis and St. Paul business is good and
money advancing, and at Kansas City
and Denver improvement is seen. At
all points reporting from the south
trade is improving except at Savannah,
where the great strike suspends the
movement Of cotton.
In spite of several more circulars ad-
vising farmers to hold their wheat, the
price has declined about cent. Corn
has advanced 2 cents and oats IL cents,
and while cotton is unchanged in price,
pork products have changed but trifle,
and cotton and oil are little lower.
There is more perplexity than usual re-
garding the yield of cotton, but the
most conservative estimates conclude
that large decrease in the product is
probable, making market for the
heavy stocks which were brought over
from last year.
Sales of dry goods are large in the ag-
gregate, but in light weights far below
last years, and many looms are idle for
the present. On the other hand there
is a peculiar increase in the demand for
heavy weights, and IN dress goods sales
are satisfactory, great improvement in
quality being noticed. Cotton goods
are little less active, but print cloths
are firm at three cents, and OF prints
some styles are an eighth or a quarter
higher. Sales OF knit goods are retard-
ed by the weather, and hosiery is dull.
Sales OF wool at the different markets
are per cent below those OF last year
thus far.

SIGNS OF THRIFT.

Last year the deposits of individuals in
savings banks in the six New Ell gland
States and New York, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania amounted to 81, ,000, 900,
against 81, ,214, 100000 the year before, an
increase of $65, 100000. The number of
depositors last year was $500, 900, or
rather more than one in every five inhabi
tants, as the population of those States was
about II, ,300,0 600. The average amount to
the credit of each depositor was about
1868 49, According to the census of 1881
about one in three of the entire population
was engaged in some gainful pursuit. AS
suming that the same proportion holds
now, the average amount deposited for
each person SO employed is about 1924, and
more than three of every five workers in
those States actually have money to their
credit in savings banks. If the people of
all the States and territories had money
in banks in the same proportion the total
amount of their deposits would be about
So, 900, 100000 But, in fact, the deposits
in all the States and territories were only
about 81, 900, 900, 900 last year, and outside
of States mentioned the total was less
than $3.50, ,OOO, 900, and the average for each
person engaged in some gainful pursuit
was hardly s23, or not one-tenth the aver
age in the States mentioned.
At first sight these figures seem to show
that the people of the East are more saving
than the people of the West. But the
Chicago Herald makes an explanation of
the matter which is worth attention. II
says: The people of the western States
probably earn as much and save as much
as those of the eastern States, but they dc
not put so much of what they save in
bank, partly because there are compare
lively few savings institutions in the Wes
and because working people have less con
| fdence in such institutions, but mainly
because the opportunities for making ad
vantageous investment of small saving
are much better in the West. Working
people put their savings into tools fs
their trades, or into business, or into land
and homes. 1t is easier in the West Il
buy lands and homes, and perhaps tht
greater part of the savings takes that di

And yet many of the best and most in

heved for the past sixty years, and still
believe, that Peter Stuart Ney, the school
teacher, was the famous hero of the first

looked like Ney, lived a life of mystery,
and now and then told a friend in conf
dence that he was Michael Ney. 1t is use

PLAIN SAILING.

PLAIN SAILING.
1t is expected that the Democrats in the
legislature will do all they can this week
to prevent the reelection of Senator Platt.
Fortunately they cannot do much. In fact
it will not make any difference what they
do. The United States statute governing
the election of senator's does not make the
joint assembly meeting of the two
branches of the legislature, as organized
bodies, but it is a meeting of members of
those bodies. A quorum of the, Joint
assembly consists of a majority of the
whole number of both houses, not of a ma
jority of each house. 1t is the duty of the
joint assembly to choose the senator when
ever the two houses fail to make the same
choice, whether such failure results from
a selection of different persons, or from
the neglect or refusal of one or both
houses to vote for senator, or from any
other cause.
Therefore Senator Platt will be prompt
ly reelected without trouble. AS the
Hartford Courants puts it, The Demo
cratic senators can stay away and only
seven senator's the, RepublicanS be pres
ent, and still it will be perfectly proper
and legitimate body if the house is there,
or if only the Republicans of the house are
there. There are 252 members of the
house and "a senators. If 139 of these
were assembled they are the persons who
are to elect a senator. Now it happens
that there are 1873 or 1874 members of the
house who are Republicans. They and the
Republicans of the senate make 140 or
al, and they are enough to choose the
senator.
Furthermore, any member of either
house is competent to preside over the
joint session. Therefore there will be no
call for Mr.. Alsop.
