THE MYSTERIOUS CARTER CASE

To the Editor of the Register
Sir: Are you not in error as to the
statute of limitations applying to the Car
ter ease in December? is it not september
when this statute will apply to save the
wealthy New York accessories OF Captain
Carter in the theft of 81, 600, 600 as II has al
ready interviewed 10 bar the prosecution OF
<the theft in the same case of several mil
Mons more of government money? If con-
yentent answer Sunday.
Deer Park, August &C. 1899
Our correspondent. we believe, is
right. September and December have
probably inadvertently been confused,
although it is difficult to get at the ex-
act facts in this case, the documents in
which have been confined after leav-
ing the courtmartial about two years
ago exclusively to the Secretary OF
War, the President, Judge Edmunds,
Wayne MacVeagh, Carriers counsel,
and the Attorney General, said papers
not even having passed through army
headquarters as provided by the regu-
]ations of the service. Sometime ago
it was stated that the statute of limi-
taions would apply on July 10 of this
year and prevent recovery of the stolen
funds either from the New York con-
tractors or from the bondsmen of Car
ter, and the Philadelphia Record, reli-
able authority, now makes this state
ment
Carriers co-parceners in crime are
already safe from prosecution on the
main charges, and within another
month their immunity will be COM
plete'
The report now comes from Wash
ington that the sentence of the court
martial will be reduced to $4,000 fine
and dismissal from the service. This
report is not yet verified, however.
The verdict of the courtmartial was
that Captain Carter be sentenced to
pay fine of $4,000, be cashiered, i'm
prisoned in the penitentiary for five
years and the fact of his conviction
and sentence published in the home
paper of his residence in Pennsylva-
MIA.

OH SULTAN.

The Sultan of Sulu, according to the
treaty negotiations with His Majesty
by Gen. Bates, is now virtually an
ofiiceholder under the United States
government, receiving from our gov
eminent a salary of 10000 Mexican
dollars.
This is quite a tidy sum and is cal
culated to make some office1olders in
this country envious. 1t must be re-
membered, however, that this is the
only way we could keep this Moham-
medan monarch quiet. Spain pursued
the same policy, paying him a salary
to be good Of $500.
This may be thought rather big pay
for a potentate in the South Sea, who
doesn't wear any clothes to speak of,
and whose subjects number 100000,
but If it be borne in mind that His
Royal Highness has a very large and
select number of wives whom he has to
support the matter will be made
palmer.

DEwEY,s CHAFFING HEROES.

Dewey's gallant tars have been made
so much of everywhere and by every
body the continual hero worship is
evidently getting to pail on them and
is becoming ridiculous in their eyes.
We are told that when on shore leave
in Europe now when one of the blue
jackets meets another he solemnly in
quires: Are you hero?" And his
mate gravely responds: ooh, yes.
I'm a hero!"
This chatting is quaint and peculiarly
American. 1t is evidence, however,
that the boys are getting to be rather
bored by being constantly heroized
wherever they go. They wouldn't be
human if they did not like it, but of
course there is always the danger of
running good thing Unto the
ground" So they relieve the monot-
ony by having a little sarcastic fun
with one another
It is not that these gallant fellows
think lightly of the patriotic feature
of their grand work at Manila. Every
man of them is loyal to the backbone
to his flag and his ship. They simply
object to posing or splaying hero"
They are splendid heroes none the
less, however, and we fear they will
have to submit to considerable more
heroizing than they ever dreamed of
when Dewey comes sailing home. And
they've got to stand it, too.
