K '.$ iv THE PITTSBiniQ DISPATCH. WEDNESDAY, ' ATJGTJST 8, 189a A -A PARALLEL TO IAMS. Sirijl Punishment Followed a Breach - of Discipline. SHORT SHRIFT AND A EONG ROPE Becommendtd It the Secretary of War to Quell Disturbance. A BTORT OP WiR TIME IN PITTSBURG The punishment inflicted on younij lams by Colonel Streator is still one of the most interesting topics of discussion throughout the city. Wherever one may go he hears it, and the conclusions drawn and com parisons made are irequently interesting aud instructive. Oi this class was an apropos story told among a group of old residents yesterday, which illustrates the condition of affairs in this city during the war, and the circumstance will no donbt be remembered by thousan ds who are now living. The time of the story was in January, 1863. -he calls lor volunteers had nearly exhausted the supply of willing fighters; the dralt was in active operation and was very unpopular in this locality. Nearly every man who was qualified to go to the front was notified or drafted into the service. Those who for various reasons preferred to stay at home had the alterna tive of paying other men to go in their places. Snbstitntes Came Pretty Hlph. The men who went under these circum (tanccs were called substitutes, and the money they were paid was called bounty money, which was paid in addition to the regular monthly pay of the Government. At the time in question substitutes were scarce and bounties were high. From $500 to 51,000 was being paid for men in various parts of the country. In this city the rate was 5800. Such big inducements led to rascality as a matter of course, and it was not long until there was a class of men called bounty jumpers. They would go to Boston, tor instance, and offer to go out as substitutes, accepting a bounty oi $800 or 5900 in cash. Alter enlisting and getting their money they would take the first opportunity tA desert the army and then proceed to New York, go through the same course and follow it up bv going to all the principal cities of the country, collecting bounties and deserting as soon as they received the cash. Pittsburg was victimized in this respect as much as any other city. Colonel J. Herron Foster was Provost Marshal of the city, with headquarters in old Philo Hall, on Fourth avenue, just above Wood street. Captain James McHenry, since deceased, had charge of the guard, and the recruits were quartered in the upper floors of the building. One day there appeared at head quarters as a substitute a handsome, well proportioned young man, who gave his name as "Williams. He was sworn in, re ceived 5800 in bounty from a subsequently prominent citizen, who had been dratted, and with the next batch of recruits sent out went to the front. ITllllams Was Promptly Idntinrd. About three months later Williams reap peared. He was taken into the Provost Marshal's headquarters by a young Dr. King, who drifted into th city a stranger some months before and who had established in his office adjoining the headquarters a sort of substitute brokerage business, col lecting commissions trom men who wanted subs as well as from those willing to act as such. Williams was not recognized at first, ana, Deing oi strong physique, had no diffi culty in finding a purchaser for his services. He was sworn in again, received his bounty and was placed in the guardroom with the other subs until the next day. On the following morning, however, the Sergeant of the provost guard, John Meix ner, recognized Williams and reported the bounty-jumper to Captain McHenry. The latter jnmped to his feet in indignation, and, alter pacing up and down the room several times, turned abruptly to the wait ing Sergeant and commanded: "Go buy a rawhide, tie that fellow up and give him 40 stripes across the bare back." The sergeant proceeded at once to carry out the command. The terrified bounty jumper was tied up by the wrists in the guard room in the presence of the other re cruits and received his sentence. He was badly bruised by his punishment, but the skin was not broken, and he would have been all right again in a few days had he been left alone. Colonel foster Took the Responsibility. The maiier was keDt auiet until the nert day, when E. S. Morrow, the present City vuuuuuci, wuu was cniei cierc in me Provost Marshal's office, went to the guard room to select the men to be forwarded to iijc uuui mat air. j.ne nrsi man ne saw on. .!..; 11 w;ii; .. i s"uii iuc xuuuj was Williams, tne bounty Jumper, sitting with his lace buried in his hands as if crying. Morrow called the sergeant aside and ordered him to send Williams to the front at once. "And for fear he jumps again," con tinued Morrow, "nnt him in irons." "Well, I guess he'd better not be sent to day," said the Sergeant, "I've just given him 40 stripes and he's hardly fit." Morrow was horrified. He realized that owing to the public prejudice against the draft, this incident would cause an uproar when it became known and that those who were opposed to the course of the adminis tration would seize upon it to inflame the! puuiic mina to me iniiest extent. As soon as he learned who had ordered the punish ment he reported the whole matter to Colonel Foster. The Colonel was quick to perceive the probable consequences and in stantly ordered that the matter be kept as quiet a possible. He assumed the entire responsibility for the act himself and in structed Captain McHenry not to breathe a word implicating him with the matter. Pnttinc Vp a Job on the Public. During the day Williams sent for Dr. King and was permitted to see him private ly. It was believed that the deserter was afraid of being shot, that being the popular punishment ior desertion in those days, and that while the doctor was with him he rubbed some kind of acid or poison on the fellow's back to make it very sore. At least it broke out in a few days in a terrible running sore, and the efforts of the sur geon to heal it were for a long time in effectual, and they could account lor the Juan's condition in no other way. In the meantime Dr. King had circulated the story, with livid coloring, outside the headquarters. One or two of the city news papers took it up and the story lost nothing of its brntal features by their way of telling it. Papers all over the country printed the story. It was harped on from day to day, here and elsewhere, just as the lams case has been. Such was the condition of public sentiment that a tremendous excitement was produced. In this city there was a de mand for the execution of the sergeant who had inflicted the punishment and the im mediate discharge from office of the provost marshal, his clerks and subordinate officers. On several occasions mobs gathered in the city and there was momentary danger ot a general attack on the marshal's head quarters. A Lone. Strong Rope Recommended. As in the lams case, the general com plaint was that Williams had riot received a trial by court martial, and the Marshal had no right or authority to punish him otherwise. Dr. King was" industrious in his eflorts to keep up the furore which pre vailed, and, assisted bv the newspapers which sympathized with Williams, he suc ceeded admirably until one dav Colonel Foster ordered him arrested on a charge of attempting to incite a riot. King was locked up in the guard room with Williams for a lew days, until the deserter's back was ell enough to permit, when Williams was sent out with a batch oi recruits for the seat of war. He jumped from the train a few miles out from the city however, and returning he joined Dr. King, who had been released, and thev went be fore Alderman Donaldson, of the Fourth ward, where informations were entered against Colonel Foster, for aggravated as sault and battery by Williams, and for false imprisonment by King. The Colonel was arrested and gave bail for a hearing. He then returned to his office, and, real izing that he must have some support, sat down and wrote out a full report of the inci dent to Secretary of War Stanton, asking for immediate instructions. The Prosrcators Were Scared Away. Two days later the hearing at the Alder man's office was held. A mob gathered, and for a time it looked as if a terrible riot would ensue. After the testimony was partiallr taken the Colonel waived further proceedings and gave bail for court He was gunrded by his friends on the way from the Alderman's office to his headquarters and there found a telegram from Secretary Stanton, which put all his fears at rest. The telegram read: "Hang the next fellow of that kind from the second story window from a beam." The telegram was posted where it conld be seen by all, and cassed a revulsion of ' feeling at once, except among those vitally opposed to the administration. Williams was rearrested, and on his entreaty- to be given another chance was sent out once more. He and Dr. King were notified that unless they deported themselves very cir cumspectly they mightexpectmuch harsher treatment than they had yet received. King left the city soon afterward, neither he nor Williams ever returning. The cases against Colonel Foster were never heard of again, and on mature reflection the course he had iollowed was generally commended by the people. TEE PITTS2UEG MOSQUITO. A Thin-Skinned AVriter Thinks He Beats Ills Jersey Cousin. Much has been said ot the ferocity of the Jersey mosquitos; but the mosquito of Pitts burg which inhabits the river shores, is a real bird of prey. He, she, or it, as the case may be, is the winged epitome of entomological cannibalism. His song is a weird whirr suggestive of agony and death. His sanguinary Vocation .is the science of phlebotomy, which he practices from eve till dawn, draining the veins of distressed human beings. The mosquito even outrivals his clumsy competitor, the bed - bug, which by the way, and, according to natural historv, is a dwarf branch of the turtle family. 'When floating in mid-air filled with blood drawn from manual also womanly veins, the mosquito presents the appearance of a large red balloon propelled by gauzy oars on either side. Being somewhat smaller, the Pittsburg mosquito is slightly less power ful than the eagle; but he is ruler of the at mosphere just the same. He is the king bee anarchist of insects and the John I Sullivan of the entomological ring, and no hyperbole about it, either. A Iways First to Settle.
