OFFICER REPRIMANDED.
Commissioners Decide That Police
man Gouldman Exec eded His Duty.

The case of Policeman l.. P. Gouldman,
VINO was charged with arresting Willie
Gardner, a sixteen-year-old colored school
boy. the Sd Of last March. without warrant,
provocation or cause, and with maitreat-
ing him, was disposed of by the District
Commissioners today. By a majority vote
the Commissioners reversed the finding of
Trial Officer Pugh who found the officer
not guilty, and directed that the officer be
reprimanded. and warned that repetition
OF the ofense VIC uld result in his dismissal.
Commissioner Wight dissented, holding
that the officer had merely performed his
duty.
1t appears from the record in the case-a
most voluminous one-that Officer Could
man warned the boy, a pupil of the Jones
School al 1st and l. streets, TO move on
from in front OF store, the windows of
which had been broken it was claimed by
the school children. The officer Claimed
that the boy failed to obey him, and when
he placed him under arrest, instead of SUBJ
mitting, resisted the efforts of the officer
to maintain the arrest, although 1t Is as
serted the boy was told by a teacher that
he should submit to arrest. The boy claimed
he was struck by the officer with such force
as TO draw blood, while the officer contended
that he merely slapped him to compel him
to release his finger, which the boy had in
serted between his teeth.
The case against the boy of disorderly
conduct was dismissed In the Police Court
and at the request of the board of public
school trustees the Commissioners had the
officer called before Mr.. Pugh. the trial Of
ficer- After hearing, which continued
two days. Mr.. Pugh reported a finding that
the policeman was net guilty. Commits
sioner Wight conceded with the finding,
but Commissioner Ross held that the Of
ficer had made an unwarranted arrest, one
which could have been avoided by the ex-
ercise of little tact on his part. and rec
commended that he be reprimanded and
warned that repetition of the offense
would result in his dismissal an opinion
in which Commissioner Beach joined.
The officer was appointed July 3, 1885,
and never before had charges of any kind
been preferred against him. He showed
also that he had done much toward secur-
ing and maintaining peace and good order

FANITA UNDER SUSPICION,

CAPE HAITIEN, Haiti, June 2-Ths
Clyde Line steamer Fanita, Captain Wa
ters. which arrived here yesterday half
empty, bringing from New York provisions
for the navy, which she landed at Mat
slipped away at about 10 o'clock last night,
with between seven and fifteen Domini-
cans added to her crew.
She was to touch at Monte Christi, Do
side to fill up the empty portion of her
hold. She has on board Chris. Roberts of
Great Inagua the most famous pilot of
the West Indies.
The captain CT the Fanita, when that
vessel was here, said the portion of her
cargo which was not landed consisted Of
coal, but there Is good reason to suppose
that it is something very different from
ccal.
Proof that the Fanita is under serious
suspicion was afforded this morning by the
excited conduct of the Spanish consul here
He denounces the taking on board the
steamer OF Spanish speaking roustabouts
and the sudden sailing of the vessel with
out notice and without the permission of
the Dominican consul. The Spanish consul
classes this as a great outrage and an act
of piracy, and formal protest has been
entered with the Haytien authorities.

RECENT PENSION DECISIONS.
Rulings Made by the Assistant Seer
tary of the Interior.

tary of the Interior.
Among the appealed claims decided by
Webster Davis, assistant secretary of the
interior, today were several which are of
considerable interest. In that of Ellie Nor
ris, widow of Elwood Norris late of Com
pany A, 9th Pennsylvania Cavalry, for the
continuance of pension on account of help
less minor, under the first proviso Of sec
ton 3, act Of June 27, 1890, the assistant
secretary says:
"A child who is an incurable epileptic.
having a falling fit once a week on an
average, and nervous attacks much oftener,
who is vigorous in body but dull mentally,
who is able to attend to his personal wants
except when suffering from an epileptic
seizure, and can perform some remunera-
tive labor, but not nearly sufficient to af-
ford him support. is permanently help
less in the contemplation Of the law, and
the pension on his account should be con-
tinued.''
In the claim of William A. Warner, colo
mel, 18th Kentucky Volunteers, the assist
ant secretary says:
1.-The weight of the evidence and the
presumptions in the case is in favor Of the
view that the disability Of the pensioner,
which is such that he requires the regular
aid and attendance or another person, is
due principally to inquiry incurred in the
line of duty in the maitary service"
In the attorneys claim for fee in the
case of John r. dGiard., late of Company 1,
Sd Indiana Home Guards, the assistant sec
retary says: ID .,
"Where the bGreauI upon evidence pro-
cured by special examination has approved
action for Dropping q pensioners name
from the roll upon the ground that his dis
ability was not incurred in line of duty
and notice has been agiven him to show
cause why his name should not be dropped
he may properly. file q claim for restora-
ton of pension, whether or not his name
has been actually dropped from the pension
roll. Such a claim is one in which the law
directs that valid fee agreements be recog-
' Claim a Of John johnson. late of Company
d, I'd Wisconsin Infantry. This soldier is
pensioned at $45 month for ..loss of right
arm at the shoulder joint" In this case
the assistant secretary says:
'.It is both claimed and shown that the
wound which caused the loss of the right
arm also caused destruction of the tissues
about the shoulder Joint to such an extent
that 1t Is necessary for the claimant 10
wear q pad or some other means of protec-
ton, In the adjustment of which the serv-
Ices Of another person are required
"That inasmuch as the services of an.
other person are required at least twice
daily IN the adjustment OF the pad which
the persioner II compelled to wear over
his right shoulder for it's pFbtectien. the
said services are considered as such .fre-
quent and periodical personal aid and at
tendance OF another person as is con-
templated by the act of July Ii, 1892. and
warrants allowance OF the fate prescribed
