UPPER MARLBORO.

A sad scene was presented at the jail
here this morning, upon arrival of Deputy
Sheriff T. B. Middleton with Betty Koski a
rative Of Poland. who was arrested on the
charge OF lunacy and being pauper. She
was perfectly quiet until the key was turn
ed on her by the guard to the jail. VIM.
A. Jarboe, when she began to shrek and
tear her hair. She imagined that she was
in the lower regions and the devil was tor
turing her. She became 50 hysterical that
every effort made to quiet her caused her
excitement to increase, until from sheer
exhaustion she dropped on the mattress and
fell asleep. The woman, up to about four
weeks, was recognized as one of the hardest
working persons in her vicinity, and could
until that time Guido any ordinary man in
the fields laboring. She always was
of an excitable disposition and undertook
everything with rush, which is supposed
to be the cause Of her insanity. For sew
eral days she has been dangerous and has
made several people move on by attacking
them with butterknife or anything she
could lay her hands on. She is unmorried
and is thirty years old. She lived ut the
home of Mr.. Huser, who assisted the officer
in bringing her to jail this morning. She
will be tried and sent to a state institution
this week.

Capts johnson Was Forced to Sur
render Him.
In regard to the surrender of Florencio
Bustamente, one Of Antonio Ezeta's lieu
tenants, whom the district court refused to
give up to President Guiterras of San Sal
vador by the steamer City of Sydney to
che Salvadorean authorities at Libertad,
Alexander Centre. the San Francisco agent
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, in
an interview, upheld the conduct of Capt.
johnson. He said that Johnson did not
surrender Bustamente until forced to do so
by the authorities at Libertad.
United States District Attorney Foote
said:
minister at San Salvador to stay any exc
cution of the prisoner Bustamente until the
government could investigate the matter
and see whether any treaty obligations had
been viola fed"
1t was for refusing to interfere in the
Barrundia case that Lansing B. Misner was
removed from the office as minister.
No Official Report.
Although 10 official report of the forcible
seizure on board an American steamer of
Florencio Bustamente by the Salvadorean
officers at La Libertad has reached here,
1t is believed, from the presentation of
facts made In the report, that the seizure
was lawfully made, and that the United
States cannot make an international issue
in this case. r.
For some time. after the tragic killing of
Gen. Barrundiartothe policy of the govern
ment was understood to be that passen-
ger on UnitadA States merchant vessel
under such circnmsta nces could not be
forcibly removed, from the ship.
But later on there was a decided qualifi-
cation of this doctrine. and the position of
the State Department was precisely stated
by Secretary Glssham in a letter to the
president of the, Pacific Mail Steamship
Company, dated December 80, 1893. In con-
neetion with his complaint against the ac-
ton of the Hondurian government in firing
upon one. OF. thai fcompany's vessels for re
Iuslng to deliver up passenger.
The Secretary Wrote in part: LAS a COM
prehensive principle it is well established
In International law, that merchant vessel
IN a foreign port Is within the local juris-
diction of the country with respect to Of
lenses or offenders against the law thereof.
and that an orderly demand for the sur
render of a person. accused of crime by due
process Of law, with exhibition of a war
rant Of arrest in the hands of the regular
~ accredited officers of the law, may not
be disregarded nor resisted by the master

The District S18veyor Reports Upon
Injury to Old Land Marks.
The annual report Of the surveyor for the
District has been submitted to the Commits
sioners. ard SHOWS that during the last ifs
cal year he surveyed $40 lots and 103 sub
divisions were recorded. Forty-nine copies
of plats were furnished private parties. He
urges sufficient appropriation to lay a
new floor in the surveyors Office to protect
the records ana &suitable quantity Of new
shelving for the filing of records. He says
that at the present time number of large
and We liable maps are lying on a table. and
an appropriation should be made for mount
ing the same. Many of the stones which
have been rem owed some prior and many
subsequent to the late war.
In the eastern section of the city the
greatest damage in this respect, he says
has been done. The large area of open
field in that section held out special induce
same for the camping Of troops and the
erection Of temporary buildings. While the
work Of building was going on large and
heavily laden government wagons engaged
In hauling material and commissary stores
ran against the stones located at the cor
ners of ms ny of the squares and broke and
displaced them In the thickly settled parts
Of the city large iron piers can be used to
advantage, pue III large areas Oh country,
and especially in that portion of the city
lying east Of the Capitol, large square
stones should be used.
He says he feels deeply interested in this
matter and says he Is sure 1t will receive
the seriou, consideration of the Commits
sioners. The work can be done better and
more quickly now, while the ground Is I'M
occupied by houses and the range of the
streets can be more accurately determined
than at a later date when buildings are
erected and the march of improvements
blocks the way. He earnestly requests the
cooperation of the Commissioners in this
matter. which. he says, is Of such vital I'M
portance to public ard private interests.
