His Salary.


NETWORK Jan. 23.-George R Ormsby,
ensign in the United States navy, has be-
gun suit in the United States circuit
court against the United States for s., 315,

has been illegally retained. Ormsby was
tried by court martial in California, in

prejudice of good order and discipline

to five distinct sentences. First, sus-
pended from duty; second, suspension
from rank; third degradation for two
years; fourth, loss of all pay except 500
per month, and fifth, public reprimand
by the secretary of the navy.
Ormsby refused to do the work of
subordinate and the consequence was
that he was confined from January
%, 1889, to the June follow
ing at the navy yard prison at Mare
Island, CAL, and subsequently dis
charged. Ormsby claims that the original
court martial was improperly constituted,
and had power only to try private in
the marine corps. He still claims to be
an ensign in the navy and that he is en-
titled to S5,315 withheld from him for
three years.
