GLADSTONE RUMoR AGAIN.
The Report That II viii Resign
Shortly Revived.
Several Leading English Papers state Poe,
itiyely That the Premier VIII
soon Let Go the Helm
of State.

LONDON, Feb. 27.-TThe subject OF
Gladstone's resignation is revived today
IN q way suggesting that there may be
tome foundation in the report. The

fish articles almost identical in sub.

wholly obscured il he does not immedi-
ately retire fro m active political duty.
1t is also stated that it was the inten-
ton Of Gladstone to allude to his mp.
preaching resignation in the house OF
commons yesterday. but he was dis
suaded by his colleagues from doing 50.

ARMY %DEsERTERs.
Conflicting Decisions Regarding the
Status of Releases,

Conflicting Decisions Regarding tho
Status of Releases.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-Some DAYS
ago the judge advocate general of the
army decided that the releases which
are granted deserters from the army
We're discharges, but discharges with
out honor. This gives the deserter an
opportunity to secure u pension since
he has been relieved from the odium of
dcsertion.
The subject came before Assistant
Secretary of War Doe. who ruled that
the descrters' releases are not dis
charges in any sense. He holds that a
deserter cannot be released for the rea-
son that he is attached to nothing.
The deserter, according to General Doe,
has discharged himself by his act of
desertion. This ruling is combatted
by the judge advocate, who says that
IL the decision is to hold it will exempt
all deserters from arrest and punish
mcnt, for the authorities cannot ap,
prehend and hold and punish a man
who is not a part of the army.
The law officers believe that General
Doe has elevated the status Of the de-
serter and invited all the dissatisfied in
the army to take their liberty without
fear or shame. Genera, Doe also holds
that aftor the statute OF limitation has
expired the officials cannot try n de.
serter. The law officers raise the
point that a deserter may always be
tried for his ~otfense, but that after a
stipulated time set by law the accused
may successfully defend himself. The
legal experts in the war department
say that General Doe will be Obliged to
revoke this latter decision. as it is ION.
trary to the decisions of the supreme
court. The ruling Of the judge ndvo-
cate general permits the deserters Ger,
tain allowances which go to all soldiers
who are discharged without honor, and
the decision was the subject of remark
at the time it was announced. The
law officers say that General Does de.
cision should attract more attention.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-In the II
Of Democratic senators Monday to con
slider the tariff bill there was more q
less reference to an interview of Senate
Brice published in a New York paper i,
which he was quoted rs saying that tn,
tariff bill to be presented to the senat,
had been presented by three ex-Confed
crate %brigadiers, all of whom were ideal
lists referring to Senators Jones, Mill
and Vest. Mr.. Vest is said to havl
spoken quite sharply in reply to THU
statement and Mr.. Brice to have replied
with no less feeling. Mr.. Brice said h
was not complaining Of the wool SEIZED
ule, but that he objected to the genera
method of procedure and that he thought
the party in the senate should have bee,
consulted, as such, in shaping the bill
While the interview Of Senator Brio,
was being discussed, the other senators
said it was not a question of who mad
the statement of the manner in which
the bill was prepared as to whether i
was true or not.
Several senators c%oncurred in this and
declared the criticism which Senate
Brice had made of the manner of prepar
ing the bill had resulted in bringing i,
before the caucus and in that respect |.
great deal had been gained by the eau
