ONE NOMINATION,
But It VIII Affect Many Other In
fantrY Officers.

The President has decided to send to the
Senate the nomination of Second Lieut..
Vernon w Boiler. Goth Infantry, TO be first
lieutenant, and has thereby gladdened the
hearts of no less than sixty young infantry
officers. whose promotion has been blocked
for Just year.
When Lieut.. Boiler originally came up
for promotion something in his record OPP
Grated to prevent the department from
sending in the nomination. Meanwhile the
names of eighteen second lieutenants below
him in his grade wese sent to Senate for
promotion. But Boiler demanded court of
inquiry. and although the Senate had con-
firmed the eighteen nominations the Presi-
dent withheld their commissions and ac-
ceaed to Boilers request. The court has now
found that the officer was wrongfuily denied
promotion in the first place. SO he will now
be nominated as second lieutenant While
the court has been at work and the case
has been under consideration forty-two
other second Heutenants have been held
back from promotion. making the list of de-
tentions Just sixty in number, and all of
these will now move up.

AS TO ADJOURN MEN T
NO RESOLUTION UNTIL IMPORT
ANT LEGISLATION rs AGREED TO

The House leaders have decided not to
agree to any resolution of adjournment
until the important legislation Of Congress
has been agreed upon between the two
houses. This course is expected to make
1t impossible for some recalcitrant, after
specified date for adjournment has been
fixed, to hold UP Congress and talk some
bill to death.
The pure food bill will probably pass the
House this afternoon. It is entirely diff
ferent from the Senate measure, but the
impression prevails that 1t will be feasible
to reconcile the differences once the bill
gets to conference. The only fear Is that
opponents of the bill in the Senate may en-
deavor to keep It from conference. 1t was
said today by House leaders that there will
be no adjournment until either the pure
food bill passes or the responsibility for
its defeat is fixed upon the Senate
The immigration bill will come up In the
House next week under special rule
which will provide for a separate vote on
the educational test and head tax amend
ments. The administration desires the
Lodge educational test to remain in the
bill, but there is strong opposition to 1t
in the House.
The argument is advanced that the edu-
cational test would exclude all class Of for
eign workmen who are much In demand.
workmen who will dig and deive where the
work. The educational test, 1t Is said,
would admit the educated skilled laborer,
and he is the man 1t Is desired to limit and
keep him from competing with the better
paid American workman of the same class.
1t was said today that compromise may
be reached which will pass the bill with its
other desirable administrative features and
turn over to a commission the task of
looking into the desirability of enforcing
the educational test, passing by that
amendment for the present The remain
ing features OF the bill in many re-
spects an Improvement upon the present
law, and 1t will undoubtedly pass.
There is also objection to the educational
test on the ground that 1t will close the
door to the fleeing Jews from Russia, who
are expected to turn to this land of refuge
In increasing number.
Senator Tillman was still averse today
to signing the conference report on the
railway rate bill, on account OF his objection
to the pipe line compromise. majority
of the conferees OF each House are agreed,
however, and 1t is thought the bill will be
brought in next Monday.
The sentiment today about the Capitol
seemed to be favorable to adjournment be-
tween next Thursday and next Saturday.

CAPT. WYNNE'S CASE.
Secretary Bonaparte Has Taken the
Papers to His Home,

Secretary Bonaparte has gone to his coun-
try home near Baltimore and will not re-
turn to this city until Tuesday next. He
took with him all the papers In the case of
Capt. Robert F. Wynne of the Marine
Corps and will probably be prepared to
announce his action when he returns.
The impression prevails in naval circles
that the court-martial found Capt. Wynne
guilty of the charge of insubordination and
sentenced him to be dismissed. There seems
to be less assurance, however, as to the
findings OF the board of medical officers
who examined Capt. Wynne to determine
his mental responsibility. His friends will

Mrs. Stenton sighed, Poor Alice. There's

They were obliged to tell her that they

During this period of the inquiry the old

1t seemed as though she could scarcely

word he said that his witness had not told
the truth. After the last word the old
woman dropped her fan. and, showing back
her chair rose TO her feet.

Instead of obeying the old woman started

/ can say to you is to tell you that the Is
sue involved is not complex. but exceeding
ly simple 1t is very important, In getting
minds into condition to pass fairly upon
the question. TO understand exactiy Wnat
is the issue"
The court remarked that during the pro-
tracted~cou of the case man. extraneous
and collateral matters had been placed be-
fore the jury, but Justice Gould instructed
the jury that ii must not be ciouded py
these matters in discerning what is the es-
sence of the charges. The court then read
sections of the statutes under which both
indictments were drawn. and explained the
meaning of the law. AS to the charge OF con-
spiracy, the court instructed the jury that
IL was to understand that while there were
twenty-five counts in the indictment there
was only one offense alleged.
Commenting upon remarks of counsel
made in the course of the trial as to the
question of identity between the offenses,
Justice Gould said that in law the crime OF
conspiracy is a. separate and distinct Of
fense.
As to the Verdict.
The court sale that. therefore. If the jury
should find the defendants, or either of
them, guilty on one of the counts the jury
should return verdict of guilty as indict-
ed. In order to constitute the crime of con-
spiracy, the court said, it is necessary 10
do more than enter into an agreement for
that purpose. 1t is necessary to commit
some specific act in furtherance of the
agreement Referring to the bribery in
dictment. containing six counts, the court
called attention to the difference between
it and the conspiracy indictment. While
the latter charged essentially only one
crime the former charged a separate Of
tense in each count, Justice Gould explain
ed. For that reason, the court said. the
jury might find the defendants. or either
of them, guilty of one or six offenses un-
der the bribery indictment
