And Yet He Is Drawing the
Full Pay Of His Grade In
the Army.
The Strange Case Of Capt.
w. C. Minor, of the Regu-
lar Army,
Who Is Serving a Life Sem
tence for Murder in an
English Prison.
Capt. Dan Maratta Will Leave
for Melbourne Early in
July.

WASHINGTON, June 1s.-The prepare
ton Of instructions by the state depart
ment, which will soon be forwarded to
Ambassador Bayard. directing him to
make inquiries concerning the condi-
ton of Capt. w. c. Minor. United States
army, retired, recalls the fact, remem-
bered by few people, that an officer OF
the United States army is serving life
sentence in an English prison for muir
der. 1t is the only case on record of a
murderer borne ON the rolls of the army
and drawing the pay of his grade. The
salary is not paid to him direct. but it
goes to his legally appointed conserva-
tor, and he will continue to draw it as
long as he remains alive. 1t is in con-
sequence of the question of pay that
Ambassador Bayard will be directed to
inquire into the condition Of the muir
derer. Every few years a
Formal Inquiry.
of this kind is made through the regular
diplomatic channels in order that the
war department may feel satisfied that
it is not paying salary to dead man.
Quarterly certificates are filed by the
CONSERVATION bearing the name Of the
superintendent of the English prison,
or rather criminal lunatic asylum, to
the effect that Capt. Minor is still alive.
On the strength Of these the conserv-
ator, who is Richard E. Rice. of New
Haven, Conn.,. receives from the army
paymaster in New York check for $500
as salary due Capt. Minor. There has
been no official report as to his condl-
dition for several years. The last re-
port from the superintendent of the
Broadmore lunatic asylum
Tells the Story
of his crime and confinement:
"He was confined In this asylum
April II, 1872. His offense consisted of
shooting with revolver and killing a
man in the Belyidere road. Lambeth"
For several years after his confine-
ment the relatives of Capt. Minor made
strenuous efforts through the state de-
partment to secure his release. The
English authorities. however, would not
bulge from their firm stand against
allowing any one to come out of the
criminal asylum alive. AS far as known
no American has ever been permitted
to see the murderer since his cOnfine-
ment. Capt. Minor is now fifty-seven
years of age. He was born on the
island of Ceylon, and appointed an as
sistant surgeon from New York in 1866
He was retired in 1870 on account of or.
ganic lesion of the brain consequent
upon sunstroke which he suffered in
Florida in line of duty.

RAILWAYS RETALIATE
For Unfavorable Action Taken
by the Legislature.

LINCOLN, Neb., June 1S.-The rail-
road companies have begun the fight of
retaliation they threatened last winter
when the maximum rate bill was up for
consideration. Last week President
Perkins, of the Burling ton, paid visit
of inspection to all lines in Nebraska,
and Immediately upon his return Or
dered a new time card, which materially
affects service oil the northwest lines.
BY this new card several passenger
trains on branch lines will be diScon-
tinued. The diScontinuance on these
trains is in pursuance of an agreement
made with the Union Pacific, which
also has a number of branch lines in
the Aurora district. All passenger
trains OH that road will also he discon-
tinued in thar region, and
the service on all of the
Republican Valley lines reaching to
Columbus, StrOmsburg and Beatrice
will he cut down. The reason given for
this change is that it is necessary to cut
down expenses. These actions of the
railroads will doubtless cause a wave of
indignation from travelling men, resi-
dents of the portion Of the state affected,
as we'll as the general public.

MUTILATED MONEY.
Queer Method of Making Change
in Bolivia.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The secre-
tary of state is in receipt of a dispatch
from the United States minister at La
Paz, Bolivia, in which he speaks of
curious reform in the currency of b.
livia, only just accomplished 1t ap-
pears that when bank notes were first
issued in Bolivia there was great dearth
of fractional currency. 1t consequently
became the custom to make change by
tearing the bank notes into fractions:
The banks received these fractional
pieces of paper money, and the
custom then inaugurated has con-
tinued to the present time. An
entire bank note is therefore rarity in
Bolivia, almost the entire issue circu-
lating in the shape of fractions. BY
decree recently issued, the banks are
instructed to redeem these fractions OF
bank notes until June 80. after which
they will not be received by the govern
meut or by the banks, and will there
fore rapidly disappear from circulation.
The substitution of new and entire
bank note for the old fractional note IS
now in progress, and holders of torn
bills are warned by legal advertisements
in the newspapers to present them for
redemption before June 30.

Intercessious for the Armenians
Prove Useless.

CONSTANTINOPLE. June Is. = The
trial of Armenians accused of being
concerned in rloting at Cesarea and
Marsovan last spring has just been con-
cluded at Angora. Seventeen of the
prisoners, including Prof. Thoumaian
and Prof. Kayayan, were condemned
to DEATH six, including the Prot
eStant pastor at Gimeric. were sentenced
to fifteen years Imprisonment; eighteen
were sentenced TO Imprisonment for
terms ranging from seven to ten years
and fifteen were acquitted. Mr.. Hotf-
mann, who went to AngOra bearing
letters from influential Germans inter
ceding i'll the behalf of the American
prisoners, left the scene of the
trial a few weeks ago with
the assurance from the governor
of Angora that Prot. Thoumaian
would certainly be acquitted. Friends
vainly warned him to put no trust in
the promises OF the prosecution. 1t is
alleged that the condemnation of Prof.
Thoumaian has resulted i'll the bringing
forward of new evidence-namely that
Prof. Thoumaian in preaching in the
Armenian church urged both parties to
unite in religious charity. 1t is denied
that the sermon referred in the slightest
way to political matters in Armenia,
such subjects always being carefully
avoided by the mission people.
