Secretary of War UndOes Work of
an Unauthorized COurt-MartiaI

WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.-The secre-
tary of war, on the recommendation of
Judge Advocate Gen. Lieber, has de-
clared illegal and set aside the pro-
ceedings Of a general court-martial
convened by Brig. Gen Greene, on the
steamer China, at sea, on June 49, 1898.
Gen. Greene was then in command Of
the second detachment of the Philip
pine expedition. The men on trial were

Company c, First Colorado infantry:
Lee Bulge, Company G, Eighteenth in

pany F, First Colorado infantry; Rob-

infantry: general order holds that
where a post or district command is
composed Of mixed troops, equivalent
to a brigade, the commanding officer Of
the department or army will designate
1t in orders as a separate brigade"
without which authority commanders
Of posts and districts having no briga de
organization cannot convene general
court-martials. The Judge advocate
general holds that Gen. Greene's de-
tachment had not been so designated
but was made up of parts of brigades
of the independent division" The

the Dawson property, had appealed TO
Mayor Kiefer to prevent the standing
OF teams in front of the property
These exemptions and the recent Or
der to the police to move the teams
from st. Peter and Market streets, gave
the 200 gardener and farmer teams no
place to stand.
Aid. Shepard said the owners had
perfect right to kick if the city stood
teams in front of their property, and
especially on the strets paved with
asphalt The pavement had been laid
at a cost of 81 per front foot and the
teams injured the pavement.
The passage Of the motion to recon-
mend the ordinance designating Smith
park as market place brought the
discussion to a close.
The committee then turned It's at
tention to the repairs of the market
house hall, and directed the passage OF
resolutions allowing an additional
$500 to put the hall in good repair.
Aid. Bantz stated that he knew of a
firm that would pay a rental of $4,000
per year for the 100 feet of the lower
floor of the market house on the Waba-
sha street side. Aid. Kenny said he
would vote for such proposition, and
requested the Eighth ward alderman
to bring the proposition up at the next
meeting Of the board.
The proposition of the gas company
to clean and put in shape the fixtures
in the market house, together WIN
Welsbach burners providing the city
would use only gas in the building Tor
two years, was accepted.

There was considerable talk at the

Of age, while the law prohibits the ap-
pOintment OF policemen who are over
thirty-fve years Of age.
The assembly, which has the con-
firmation of the appointments Of the
mayor caucused on the point as to the
legality Of McInire's appointment, and
decided that, as the mayor had the
applica ton Of McIntire before him and
knew as to the age Of the inspector,
1t was a question for the mayor to de-
eide and not for them. The appoint
ment was accordingly confirmed.
After the confirmation it was an
nounced that proceedings would be
commenced to prevent McIntire from
drawing and the comptroller from
auditing his pay for August Comp
troller McCardy, asked about the mat
ter yesterday afternoon, said he had
received no notification from any
source as to the illegality Of McIn-
tires appointment, neither had any no.
