DUNCAN IN sHERIFF's HANDS.
Court-Mnrtiai Did Not Punish Him
Heavily Mt All.

WASHINGTON. August 29.-Captain
Louis c. Duncan, surgeon OF the
Twenty-second Kansas Regiment, Is held
by the Sheriff OF Fairfax county, Va,
to answer an indictment charging him
with Decorating Confederate graves at
Bull. Run, near Manassas
It appears that DIR. Duncan, whose
case has sew become famous, was not
sentenced to FIVE years imprisonment,
as reported from Camp Pennsylvania,
but escaped much more lightly at the
hands Of the military court, there being
a lack OF evidence to prove that he ac-
tually took part in despoiling the graves.
He was tried by court-martial under the
sixty-frst and sixty-second general arti-
Giles of war.
The first charge was conduct unbe-
coming an officer and a gentleman the
specifications being that he witnessed and
participated in the dissertation Of the
grave Of Major J. T. Duke. of the Fifth
Alabama Regiment well-known Con-
federate officer. DR.. Duncan, however
was acquitted of despoiling Of the Duke
grave, proving that he was not present,
but in camp.
COUNT ON WHICH GUILTY.
The second charge, under the sixty
second article Of war, was conduct pre-
judicial 10 good order and discipline"
The specifications were & that he par
ticpated In the dissertation of the grave
Of one Humphreys, and (2), failed TO ex-
ercse his authority as an officer in not
stopping the dissertation, and putting the
men so engaged under arrest On the
first specification, that of having partici-
pated in the desecraton, he was acquit-
ted, but on the second specification, the
court found him guilty.
The finding of the court-martial, APP
proved by General Davis, was that Sur
geon Duncan be deprived OF his rank for
two months, be confined to regimental
camp, and forfeit half Of his pay for
the same length OF time, and that he
be reprlmanded by the commanding gem
eral.
STATE VS.. UNCLE SAM.

now the prisoner OF the Sheriff OF Fair
fax county, is difficult to understand.
HIS regiment has moved from Thorough
fare Gap to Camp Meade, Pa. 1t is un-
derstood that when the Sheriff presented
his warrant for him under the State in
dictment, Duncan was voluntarily sur
rendered. A clash between the State
authorities and the War Department may
develop, though the case has not been
brought TO the attention Of the Washing
ton authorities as yet.
