PRESIDENT WILL NOT
REVERSE RECORDS
VetoeS Two Bills to Rehabil-
itate Veterans.
Believes Congress Cannot Judge as Well
as Did Witnesses Who Were Pres
ent Forty Years Ago.

President Roosevelt sent to the Sen
ate yesterday vetoes of bills granting
honorable discharges from the army to
Charles E. Hawley. late a second lieuten-
ant in the Sixteenth Connecticut Infantry,
and to James W. Howell, late in the Fifth
Illinois Infantry. While the bills are
mandatory the President does not pass
upon the constitutional questions thereby
involved.
Hawley was dismissed by an order is
sued January %, 1863, for rendering his
resignation in the face of the enemy. He
afterward enlisted in another regiment
and served until the close of the war.
The evidence before the military commit
tee showed that his resignation was due
to failure to obtain leave of absence to
visit his wife, who was desperately ill.,
The President says in his message that
the bill to give Hawley an honorable dis
charge revokes an order of dismissal is
sued thirtynin years ago against man
whom his superior officers. including the
commander in chief, Abraham Lincoln
held to be unworthy to serve in the army
OF the United States.
Il think it in the highest degree mex
pedient," he says, Ito reverse the order
of dismissal nearly forty years after the
event when ii is out of the question for
anyone to possess the knowledge and the
means of arriving at the judgmen. which
was possessed by the fellow officers of
the man at the time they dismissed him"
Howell was dismissed as the result of
court-martial held at Pine Bluff, Ark.
which found him, with others OF his regi-
ment, guilty of mutiny in refusing to pa
rade on the Fourth OF July.
Commenting on the case, the President
says: --f -.t
lit is enough to say that this man was
convicted of mutiny, sentenced to b. dis
honorably discharged from the army, and
confined at hard labor for term of years
A portion OF the confinement was remitted
by executive clemency. 1t is to the last
degree improbable that now. thirty-seven
years after the event, there is as good an
opportunity to pass judgment upon the
facts as was the case when the fellow cit
izens of the offender found him guilty of
an offence so serious as to call for the
punishment they inflicted. There is per-
haps no heritage an American would SO
like to leave to his children as an hon
orable discharge for services well and gal
lantly performed in the civil war: and the
honorable discharge thus granted to those
who. with blood and toll. have earned 1t
is cheapened and rendered Of little worth
If also granted to their unworthy brothers

ALEXANDRIA MAY HAVE
A new POSTMASTER
Lawrence Washington Said
to Be Slated for Office.
His Candidacy Surprise to Party Lead
ers, Who Have Been Working
for Incumbent.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, March 1S.--There is
rumor in this city. which seems to be
well founded, that President Roosevelt
will appoint Mr.. Lawrence Washington
postmaster here, to succeed Mr.. Joseph L.
Crupper, the incumbent. The appointment
of postmaster for this office will, 1t is
understood, be made within the next week
or so.
The news Of the proposed appointment
of Mr.. Washington is surprise to party
leaders and citizens, as it was not known
he was an aspirant for the Office.
Candidates in the Field.
1t was a well-known fact that. in addi-
ton to Mr.. Crupper Messrs. Will
liam T. Emerson, Thomas Bayne, and A.
A. Warfield were aspirants for the office,
but of all these Mr.. Crupper was consid-
cred the most formidable candidate, as
it is said he had the support of Mr.. Park
Agnew. State chairman of the Republican
committee.
The party leaders were confident that
MIR. Crupper would be renominated. The
announcement Of the proposed appoint
ment OF Mr.. Washington is serious
blow 10 the party leaders. as the appoint
ment of Mr.. Morgan Treat as United
States marshal for the Eastern district
OF Virginia and that of Mr. s. Brown
Allen for the Western district led them
to believe that the President would stand
by them in the State, as both candidates
had formidable opposition.
Has Not Given Up the Fight.
Nr Crupper, however. has not yet
given up the fight. and his friends here
still maintain that he may be reap
pointed.
MIR. Washington now holds a position
in the Congressional Library at Washing
ton, and resides at COZ Cameron Street

CROPS IN PORTO RICO.
Hot and Dry Weather Results in Great
Damage

Damage.
The Porto Rico section of the climate
and crop service of the Weather Bureau
has issued the following summary for
February 1902. ... ga.
-Four consecutive weeks of hot, dry
weather have resulted in considerable
damage to growing crops, and in the pa
ralysis Of all farm work. excepting the
cutting and grinding of cane. for which
the conditions have beet ideal. This work
is now general, and is being energetica'ly
pushed. The yield is good, and the grade
OF the juice is slightly improving. The
young canes on lowlands continue to grow,
but those on the hilsides are at a stand
still on account of lack of rain.
Tobacco has suffered the greatest dam
age from the drought, and without rain
soan. much of this crop will certainly be
lost. Coffee is in promising condition. but
continuation of the dry weather will be
injurious. as many of the trees have ar
rived at the Towering stage.
Small crops promise good yields. and
vegetables are plentiful. but pastures are
rapidly drying up, and stock is suffering. -

Brewster said that the word catholic may
be taken as a summary of the ideal of the
churches, and that the catholic idea is
incompatible with the smaller ideas of
the church Sect, he declared, is found
ed upon human individuality. but the
Catholic Church is founded upon Christ.
The series of lectures just concluded by
the Churchman's League has been nota-
BILE one. Among those who have delivered
addresses have been some of the most fam
Gus pulpit orators of the United States.
