DESERVED COMPLIMENT TO LIEUT.. TnroN.
The New York Courier speaks of silver cof-
fee pot, tea pot, sugar dish, cream Jug, table
and tea spoons, which are now at Gestons,
under the Astor House, and which bear the
following inscription: "Presented TO Ed,card
Gibson 7ilton, Esq, U. S. Mary, by his country
men in China, June 18th, 1914" This evidence
of good feeling from his countrymen, comes to
that gallant officer in consequence of his noble
conduct at Canton on the occasion of the vio-
lent outbreaks upon the American residents in
that city, and does equal honor to him and to
the generous hearted gentlemen who thus ma
nifest their appreciation of his service. The
plate came enclosed in a box addressed to Mr.
Tlton at Annapolis, accompanied by letter
to the consignee in New York, requesting that
the inscription be engraved by Messrs. Gel
ston & Co.
