LIEUT.-CoL. NoYEs's CASE.
NE Cannot Re Promoted and He should Not
he Kept Where He Ii.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The army authorities
arei in a quandary as to what to do with Lieut.. Col.
Henry r. Noyes, whose nomination to be Colonel
of the Second Cavalry was rejected by the Sem
ate yesterday. His rejection was secured on tho
grounds that he had not paid his debts, and had
violated tho army regulations by borrowing
money from enlisted men, but these charges
have been disposed of in a manner satisfactory
to the War Department. Lieut.-Col. Noyes now
heads the list Of observation-disclosures To keep
him there would not be in accord with tho reg
ular system of promotion, while a second nomi-
nation probably would share the fate Of
the first, and leave him in an even moro
embarrassing position. The allegations that the
officer had borrowed money from an enlisted
man resulted in his but material
witnesses for the prosecution did not appear
and he WAS acquitted. Judgment was obtained
against him by the enlisted men, but the at
tachment was never served. Later Col. Noyes
made another attempt at settlement with his
creditors, by which one third OF his pay was with
held each month and applied by the Paymaster-
General OF the army TO the liquidation Of his
debts. As Lieut.-Col. Noycs has complied with
all the requirements OF the War Department
and has been twice promoted without opposi-
tion since his court-marttal, army officers think
his rejection is unjust.
It is not probable that another court-martial
based on the action of the Senate win result,
and Lieut. Col. Noyes cannot be placed on the
retired list except at his own request

ORANGE, July 13.-For two hours Sunday
afternoon there was a small-sized riot in Sab
bato Christiano's saloon. in White street,
Orange. The police did not interfere, because
tho saloon is on the limo between Orange and
West Orange, and the police Of each place held
that the row was on the other side OF the line.
Just how the row started is not clear, but Chris
tiano says that q man he didn't know came in
and bought q pint Of beer and refused to pay for
it The bartender tried to take the beer away,
and a free fight ensued. The man with the beer
got out and collected a crowd of his friends, who
burst in the back door of the saloon and made a
concerted attack upon the bartender. He drew
a revolver and fred at the gang, but did not hit
any one.
Several months ago a survey had to be made
to determine whether Christiano should pay
ESQ for a saloon license in Orange or $3.50 In
West Orange.
