LIBELLED TWO REGIMENTS.

CHARGES MADE. AGAINST SERGEANT JOHNSON
AT SANTIAGO.
Santiago de Cuba Sept 1s.-Yesterday charges
were preferred by Captain Miller, of the ID I'm
mune Regiment, and Captain Shelley of the 9th
Immunes against Sergeant Josh w. Johnson.
OF the Sd Regiment. for maligning and libelling
the officers and soldiers of their respective reg-
ments in an article published in The Atlanta
Constitution" on August .. The article in cues
ton represented the soldiers OF the I'd and 9th
Regiments to be a band of cutthroats. robbers
and criminals of the worst description. whose
presence in Santiago menaced the life and prop
erty Of every one. and closed with a audation Of
the Sd Regiment by contrast with the other
commands Colonel Ray and the men OF the
libelled regiments, we'll all the others of
the Army. were indignant at the SANDERS and
threats were made by few OF the men that
Johnson would be lynched If he were not called
TO account for his statements.
There is no ground whatever for the reports Of
unmilitary conduct infractons of discipline. dis
orderly conduct and drunkenness on the part Of
the men. Two unimportant cases Of assault are
all that can be charged against the men Of the
I'd and 9th. JohnsOn's article is believed by
some to have been inspired by his superior Off
GERS. His promotion to a lieutenancy has been
recommended.

A PLEA FOR PRISONERS.
MARIANAos GOVERNOR URGES CLEMENCf
FOR THOSE CONVICTED OF MINOR
OFFENCES.


OFFENCES.
Havana. Sept 1S.-In an able letter addressed
10 Antonio Gown. Colonial Minister Of Justice
Marquis Cervera. Military Governor OF Mafiahao'
makes an urgent plea for clemency for all per-
sons now serving sentences In the prisons vi 'he
island for minor offences or held pending trial
upon charges Of similar infractors Of the law.
The communication is inspired by recent ut
terance Of senior Sagasta. the spanish Premier
who asked the Cortes what was to become OF the
many prisoners serving terms in Cuba VINO mao
been sentenced by Spanish tribunals
MARQUIS Cervera cites the fundamental prn-
ciole Of the Penal Code that criminal law Is es-
sentially territorial. and that, consequently. no
State can authorize the execution within Its
territory of sentences pronounced by foreign
courts. and contends that Spanish tribunals
will tomorrow be foreign in Cuba
But he argues that many of the persons in
whose interest he addressed SehOr Gown have
pending either their trials or appeals for fresh
trials and asks:
''Is Il Just or right or in accordance with the
spirit of the law. which provides the defence
with the same rights the prosecution, to take
prisoners away from the place where the
crime was committed and separate them from
all possible testimony Of witnesses which they
may require TO protect their lhulNiuudi iish'S vi
establish their innocence"
This. he argues. is against the majesty OF Jus
tce and right. and in opposition to the impera-
five mandate of the law. The Marquis suggests
a rational solution based upon cemency for
those condemned for minor offences. who he
considers. have fully expiated their misdeeds by
the Imprisonment they have already undergone
and for whom he pleads pardon.
On the other hand regarding habitual GRIM
inals condemned for serious offences, constitut-
ing a menace to society and law. ne suggests
that they he retired and If necessary, be mace
10 serve their entire terms and undergo pun
ishr1cnt to the full extent of the law.
The communication has received wide pun
licity and has excited much favorable comment

A TAX DECISION.

Washington. Dec. 14.-In the United

handed down by Justice Harlan in the
chse Of the village Of Norwood in the
State OF Ohio. VS.. Ellen r. Baker, in
volVinlg the right Of the village to tax
abuttlng property for all the improve
menls made upon it by the village In
this instance the village put street
through Mrs. Bakers land and taxed
her not only for the land. but for the
cost of condemnation. Justice Harlan
laid down the general proposition that
in such cases abutting property could
he taxed only to the extent that il was
benefited by an Improvement and that
amy more radical action amounted To
taking property without due process Ot
law. and was therefore unconstitu-
tiOnal. Justices Brewer. Shiras and
Gray united in a dissenting opinion,
holding that the opinion was contrary

FOE TO FATHER AND SON

Chester, Dec 14.-Officers are inves-
tigating a mysterious affair at the
house of Charles AtmOre, COlwyn,
about 3 O'Clock yesterday morning. At
more and his wife live in a one-story
house which would hardly tempt a bur-
glar, but yesterday morning a crash of
glass awoke Atmore who saw a man
getting in through the window, carry
ing what appeared to be a gun. Mr..
Atmore eprang out of bed and closed
with the man. who was unable to use
the weapon. "A desperate struggle took
place, which was terminated by At
mcre's assailant stabbing him over the
LETT eye. Mrs Atmore, springing from
the window, ran for help. When neigh
bors reached the house the man had
disappeared and Atmore was found
bleeding freely from the cut which is
not considered dangerous. Taken in
connection with an assault attempted
upon Atmore's father a week ago, the
affair gives rise to the belief that ia
ther and son have mortal foe, bent on
revenge.
