a tax on human creduity. The accursed
| greed for wealth was one Of the worst
things OF the present day, he said. Army
officers, for the most part had been con-
tent heretofore with their salaries. Par
| ticularly has this been true in the engineer
! corps, by which more than 500, 10000 has
| been disbursed, and no bond has been re-
CURED of one member of il except his
honor. They have kept The faith nobly, he
SAID, and the army Is proud of them. In
this case the accused has furnished the
proud name Of his corps. and joined in the
plundering Of the treasury. With a love
for glitter and show he became plant
tool in the hands Of stronger and more I'M
scrupulons men.
Col. Barr closed his argument with a
discussion Of the law Of reasona bic doubt
as applied to criminal cases. He could
not close more appropriately, he said, than
with the words with which he swore in the
officers OF the court, That you shall well
and truly try this case and duly adminls-
ter justice without Partially or favor"
Mr. Blair for Capt. Carter then called
attention to several errors in quoting the
record made by the Judge Advocate. Most
OF them were minor errors and readily
admitted. Where the Judge Advocate had
stated the bids were placed in different
piles on Capt. Carriers desk, the record
showed that they were bids for three
different works. Several other correct
ions of this kind were made, and it be-
Ing announced that there was nothing
more to present, Gen. Otis announced
that the court would be cleared. This
was rather an unusual announcement, as
the court has generally retired. The court
room was soon cleared, and the officers
remained in session for a few minutes.
The court will meet in secret session in
the United States court room this morn
ing at $50 O'Clock. They then begin their
deliberations. and will probably reach a
vote this afternoon orr early TO morrow
morning. The record goes to Washing
ton with the courts findings in the hands
of the Judge Advocate, and is there pass
ed upon. Most of the members of the
court have engaged sleeping car berths
for tomorrow, which gives rise to the
belief that they will come to a vote this
afternoon or early tomorrow. The de-
cision of the court will not be known for
a month or six weeks.

LIVELY WORK ON THE BLOCKADE
Two Spanish GunbOats Chased-COal
Steamer Turned Back.

Key West, Fla, April 2s.-The Norwe-
gian steamer Uto, Capt Bryde, from Phil
adelphla for Cardenas. with 100 tons of
coal, attempted to run the blockade yes
terday, but she was summarily turned
back to Key West, where she arrived this
afternoon.
The monitor Terror on Sunday took a
little prize news of which was first learn
ed to-day-the Spanish schooner Saco, with
a cargo of sugar. Paymaster Sampson
and three men were put on board as a
prize crew, and ordered to bring her ;lere.
They had not arrived up to this evening,
and it is said the Saco had not been sight
ed. No alarm is felt, however, as all the
Spaniards but the captain were taken off
the schooner. She may have been delayed
by the recent rough weather
News comes from Cardenas, however, on
good authority, otherwise unconfrmad
that the torpedo boat Foote, which drew
fire from the MatanZas batteries few
days ago, was fired on again Tuesday by
three gunboats and two torpedo boats that
were laying mines in Cardenas harbor
The F'oote was uninjured.
The cruiser Detroit had a lively two-hour
chase after a mysterious gunboat Monday
night. A torpedo boat reported Spanish
gunboat to westward and little later
the battleship Iowa signaled the Detroit:
Two Spanish gunboats to the westward"
The Detroit at once started on the search,
but, after thoroughly securing the waters
she found no trace of the enemy, and re-
turned to the feet.
United States District Attorney Stripping
said last night that, In his opinion, the
Spanish vessels already captured do not
come under the protection of the Presi-
dents proclamation. These vessels, lie
contends, were captured on the high seas
while bound for or coming from foreign
ports. whereas the proclamation covers
only vessels in ports. He said the exani-
nation of the Spanish crews would 20 On
