PAYMAsTER MARTINS CASE.
Technical Crime of Naval Officer a
COurtmartiaI Offense.

COurtmartiaI Offense.
Washington June 1S.-The Secretary of
the Navy has appointed court-martial
for the trial of Paymaster John R. Mar
tin, U. S. N, on the charge of scandal
lous conduct tending to the destruction Of
good morals.
The case presents some peculiar fea-
lures. The accused is charged with scan
dalous conduct, yet by no turn could any
scandal have figured in the case and the
charge was so drawn, only because this
according to the naval regula tions, is one
of the charges that must be resorted to
when the offense is not otherwise specified
in the regulations. What Paymaster Mar
tin actually did to advance to him
self and a brother officer certain small
sums of money due on account of his
own salary. The government lost nothing
by this transaction.
1t is said at the Navy Department that
this practice is probably very general in
the service, but statute expressly pro-
hibits paymasters from advancing any
money; they cannot lend even their pri-
Vate funds.

Company's Tools and of Putting
Phones Out of Service.

Winans Hull.of Dixon Hill. is wanted
by Constable Ncary. The constable
himself is not particularly anxious to
see Winans. but Bruce Bedford, man

ors, plyers and other tools were taken
from the telephone company's supply
room in the Burke building, and Hull,
who was employed for "A few days by
the company was suspected of making
off with them. He has not been seen
since the articles were missed, but he
has been heard from. He has been
seen though, it is said, by Il few sub
scribers of the telephone company,
whom Hull visited and whose phones
he tampered with and put out of ser
vice. John McCabc. the Canaan street
grocer, and Thomas Ponder, on the
Same street, We're two of the Subscri-
hers who sent in complaints about
some person having visited their
phones on Il prctcXt of making some
repairs, meddlcd with the apparatus
until it was rendered useless. Both
subscribers We're warm or even hot
with indignation, and HUI, whom it is
claimed to have been, was the subject
of some caustic criticism.
What liull's purpose WAS in tampor-
ing with the phones can only be con-
iectured, and his explanation is await
ed with eager interest by the tele-
phone company's manager.
Constable Neary has tried to locate
Hull but he is as elusive as the ice
