WAsHINaToN CRY, Feb. 2S.-The presi-
dent today issued general order fixing
the maximum limit of punishment of en-
listed soldiers in time of peace for all
crimes and offenses within the jurisdic-
tion of court-martial. The regulations
contemplate a uniform degree of punish
ment throughout the service and inhibi-
ton ofexcessive sentence by court-martial.
The severest penalty prescribed is ten years
in prison, and this can be imposed only in
cases of granddaughter and assault with
intent to kill. The greatest punishment
for desertion is five years in prison, which,
however, may be imposed only for
desertion in the presence of Indian
outbreak or other trouble, or when the
act is joined in by two or more soldiers in
the execution of q conspiracy. The pun
ishment for ordinary cases of desertion is
two and one-half years. imprisonment,
with one year added for each previous
conviction of the same offense. Deserters
who surrender cannot be imprisoned for
longer than ten months. The order was
issued at the instance of Secretary Proc
tor, and is intended as an act Of Justice to
the soldiers who have repeatedly COM
planned of undue discrimination in the
matter of punishment under the present
system.

An Honest White Settler Of Spokane
Rewarded by Secretary Noble.
WASHINGTON CRY, Feb. 28.-fSpecial. l.
Secretary Noble today decided an interest
ing case, in which Charles r. Carter, of
Spokane Falls district, Washington, asked
for reinstatement of his homestead entry.
In 1889 the acting commissioner of Indian
affairs called attention to the fact that
Carter's entry was in violation of the law,
as the land was in possession Of Pa-ack-a-
tin, by whose family it had been occupied
seventy-seven years. An investigation
seemingly bore out this claim, and the
entry was cancelled, after which it became
known that the Indian, who had wanted
to live with his tribe, being unable to
work, had agreed to relinquish his claim
to the land for 500, which was paid in in
stallments, and after cancellation Pa-ack-
attn had said: "When sell anything
am done with it." Carter had been acting
in good faith in not bringing out the facts
at the Investigation.
Secretary Noble says today that mis-
take involving no wrong ought rarely to
forfeit the right Of homesteader when it
was sought by an honest settler with a
family. The entry will be reinstated.

The Critic of this evening says: The
cruiser San Francisco is lying alongside
the dock at Mare island. During her re-
cent trial trip along the Coast it will be re-
membered that her gun carriages were
badly damaged, and repairs to them are
now under way. The final destination of
the cruiser still remains mystery. 1t is
surmised, however, that in company with
the Charleston she will make trip up the
Coast, carrying the presidential party. ex-
pected to arrive there shortly after con-
gress adjourns. In preparation for that
event she is now on the dry dock and Is
receiving thorough overhauling. Presi-
dent Harrison and family may make their
expected voyage on the San Francisco,
meantime 60 to Chile she will accompany
them. This contradicts the statement re-
