Seal Destruction.

Prof. Thompson of the British commits
sion on the Alaska sealing industry has
submitted his report to Lord Salisbury.
He does not seem to have discovered any
material decrease in the hert;-sa 1896 over
1895, but recognizes and admits a marked
decrease as compared with 1892. He finds
the breeding grounds in fine condition. SO
far as abundance Of male life is concerned.
and notes 2 large number of idle bulls. He
comedies that more than one-half of the
dead pups on the islands are due to the
killing of the mothers in Bering sea. This
percentage Is less than that assigned by
DR.. Jordan. He speaks in high terms of
the methods Of driving and killing the
male seals by the lessees, and states that
he has mo recommendations to suggest
for their Improvement"
Although he does not take up the subject
of pelagic sealing and denies that there
has been any alarming decrease of the
herd, the conclusion reached from his OBJ
servations on the islands points unmis-
takably to the necessity for some modfi-
cations of the existing regulations.

Practical Instruction to Troops.

General Merritt, commanding the De-
partment of the East, which includes the
District of Columbia and vicinity, has Is
sued an order in regard to practical IN
struction for infantry ard cavalry troops,
in which he says: The practice season for
small arms firing. and the two months
season for military signaling will be in
GUIDED between May / and October 81. The
portion of this period to be devoted to
practice will be selected by post command
ers to suit the particular conditions exist
ing at their respective posts.
The drill season will embrace the period
between April 1 and November 80. except
when interrupted by target practice. 1t is
not the intention of the department com
mander to limit post commanders In their
methods of conducting this instruction; 1t Is
considered sufficient to suggest the neces-
sity of q maturely conceived, thoroughly di-
gested and progressive scheme, complying
with regulations and orders on the subject
and including within it's scope practice
marching, minor tactics and physical train
iEg. Field days. to be devoted exclusively
to athletic contests. are approved of. Ali
drills and military exercises, including pre-
scribed parades, will be held, SO far as
practicable, in the forenoon.

before Judge Kimball today in the Police
Court, an even dozen gentlemen of the pro-
flesh" being arraigned in one bunch as
vagrants. The aggregation comprised all
sorts and conditions Of men, young and old.
white and black, but without exception they
were soiled and ragged. The men were cap
tured last night by Policemen Stevens, Dyer
and Smith in a raid on the freight yards at
Twining City, where they were awaiting an
opportunity to Jump train. Residents ia
the locality mentioned have suffered thefts
at eatirely too frequent intervals Of late.

out the raid.

the defendants, and they told their stories

marked his honor, as Luke Carr took the
stand. "and l released you on your personal
bonds on your promise to leave town i'm
mediately. 1t is evident that You did not
fulfill the promise.
Il thought 1 was outside the city limits -
replied Luke.
You thought wrong, then said the
court. You will have to go to the work
house for thirty days."
Joseph Dick produced letters Of recon-
mendation and satisfied the court that until
recently he was employed as a bookkeeper.
He promised to leave the city post haste il
given the opportunity. and his personal
bonds were taken. The same action was
noted in regard to William Reed, who
proved a residence in this city.
George Smith escaped with a sentence OF
ten days, while the others went down for

yesterday and last night a crowd of peo-
pie were in the country about here looking
for John, alias Bud" Scott, colored who
Is wanted for the murder Of William A.
Frazier at Elkton. There Is a reward OF
$3.50 offered for the colored mans arrest.
and this offer has induced a number Of
officers to take part in the search for him.
Among.the searchers were four Baltimore
and Ohio detectives, and while they did
not capture Scott they did succeed in ar
resting fou- well-dressed white men for
riding on a freight train on Its way to
Washington. When the train Jumpers
saw that the officers were after them they
left the train and attempted to get away.
In doing 30 one of them fell and cut his
face In frightful manner on one OF the
crcssties Each Of the four men had
big revolver in his pocket, and all weapons
were loaded. Two Of them claimed TO live
in Baltimore, and II Is believed that the
others are from Washington. They were
taken before Justice Craig. who sent them
to the house of correction for three months

sumed their search for the fugitive muir

would do to averge the new insult. When
the obnoxious passage in Capt. Romeyn's
testimony was reached in reading the min
utes of the court the spectators were or
dered to withdraw. Capt. Romeyn moved
to strike the word "cuckold'' from the rec
ord. He stated he had used 1t in the heat
of passion, and did not know at the time
what he was saying.
Il had no desire to use such an express
sion, and regret that did make use Of 1t. !"
1t is thought that this affair will work
to the detrfment OF Capt. Romeyn when
the case comes to be decided.
Lieut.. O'Brien ON the Stand.
Lieut.. O'Brien's testimony. as reported in
the Atlanta journal, both when called by
the defense and when testifying directly
for himself. created a good impression.
Capt. Romeyn himself interrogated the
witness as follows:

Il was in the best position of anybody
to have observed the circumstances. Capt.
Romeyn held his sword with his left hand
and struck me with his right arm and
cliQched fist on the left side of my head"
He testified that he had not been cut by
Mrs. Col. Kellogg, and that she had spoken
to him pleasantly when he was out BIZ
cycling at the post. Lieut.. O'Brien said
that it was his request that Bamford went
to the city for Mrs. O'Brien, carrying her
cloak and umbrella.
He said that he had no reason to be-
lieve that there had been an engagement
"Bamford had told me several times that
he was not marrying man, and /, as a
married man, felt called upon to censure
him for 1t. 1 have heard Mrs. Romeyn
talk about an engagement.
'She once told me that she thought that
Miss Romeyn would elope with Bamford.
and that she was going to town to buy a
new dress. SO that her daughter would have
a good garment in which to elope. Bam-
ford had paid Miss Romeyn marked and
exclusive attention, but not since last sum-
mer."
O'Brien testified that Miss Romeyn had
announced the engagement without the
permission of Bamford. and that Bamford

Harsh Expressi0A at the Court
Martial starts O'Brien ON the Warpnth
A special to the New York World from
Atlanta, Ga. dated yesterday. says:
The life of Capt Henry Romeyn, who is
row on court-martial at Fort Mcpherson,
is in extreme danger. This Is the view
taken by Major Charles Porter. the post
commandant, who has directed that the
officer Of the guard and heavy escort ac-
company the captain to and from his quar-
ters and around the post until the termina-
tion of the court.
In delivering his statement yesterday
Captain Romeyns temper got beyond his
control, and he applied a harsh expression
to Lieutenant O'Brien's home relations.
This was at once conveyed to the latter,
and 1t is said that it required the combined
efforts Of OBrien's brother officers TO re-
strain him from adopting rash measures.
So apprehens1ve was the post commandant
that he not only detailed q guard for Cap
tain Romeyn, but ordered strict watch to
be kept on the movements OF Lieutenant
O'Brien. 1t is understood that Captain Ro-
used in secret court, but friends of O'Brten
say that 1t will require a personal retrac-
tion to clear the atmosphere of blood.
The prosecution continued its rebuttal to-
day, after spat between the court and
Captain Romeyn. over the presence Of Mrs.
Kimball wife of Lieutenant Kimball who,
it is understood. purposely left the fort to
avoid being summoned for the defense.
Romeyn declared that unless some definite
step was taken to secure her appearance he
would appeal to the department for redress.
as he considered her a very material wit
ness. He was promised that she would be
subpoenaed if her whereabouts could be
ascertained.
Capt. ROmeyn Withdraws an Express
sion.
During Wednesdays proceedings Capt.
Romeyn had occasion to reflect on Lieut..
O'Brien, and in doing SO he called him a
cuckold. The word startled the court and
all present. The court warned him to be
careful in his remarks. but the warning
came too late. There was much discussion
in the garrison as to what Lieut.. 'Brien

A POSSIBLE CLUE.

Ever since the strange disappearance
of James Egln. various theories have
been advanced regarding the matter, but
so far no definite, reliable information
hrs been furnished on the subject. Sew
eral clues indicating foul play have also
been worked upon, but so far nothing
startling has been developed. Yesterday
the GAZETTE received communication
from A. F. Luther, who lives near
Granger, containing some information
which he thinks perhaps has bearing
on the case. Relatives of Mr.. Eglin
were shown the letter, but they consider
the information contained therein of no
especial value.
The letter is as follows:
'I have today found lace shoe about
100 yards from my house. Its size is
about six or seven, and rs took it to the
house, was informed by my wife that
our little boy had found pair of rub.
bers shortly after Jim Eslin disappeared.
The rubbers fit the shoe exactly and the
rubbers contain some dirt such as Cannot
be found in this neighborhood. Please
inform Jim's relatives about it. As my
place is only half mile from what is
called Dead river, 1t is possible that Jim
was killed and carried down to Dead
DIVER.
