CENSURE FOR WHITE ARMY OFFICER
Colonel Who Wrote Dlayaraalna

WASHINGTON, Nov. I. Unprecedented
In the history of the army of the United
States Is the action of the president, just
announced. In dismissing In disgrace from
the army an entire battalion of negro
troops because of their failure to die-
close the lndentlty of some of their num
ber who had been guilty of violence and
murder.
Aa an evidence, however, of his Intention
to be fair to the colored trooi,8 the presi
dent has accompanied this action by an
order, which may amount to a court
martial of a white army officer of high
grade who was charged with having cast
alura upon the colored troops. The story
of both actions Is told in official cor
respondence made public today by th
military secretary.
The correspondence follows:
The report of an investigation mad
by Brigadier Oeneral K. A Carlington.
inspector genersl of the army, relative
to the riotous disturbance that occurred
at Brownsville, Tex., on the night of
Auaust 13. 10. and that resulted In the
death if one and wounding of another
citlsnn of that city has been consicierea
and acted upon by the president. Follow
ing are his Instructions with regards to
the matter:
"The White Hotise, Washington, Nov. ,
5, 1906. The Hecretary of War: I have
read General Carlingtou's report dated
October submitted to me by you. I
direct that the recommendation of 'neral
Carllngton he complied with and that at
the same time the concluding portion of :
his report be published with our sanction
giving the reasons for the action.
(Signed) "THEODORE ROOSEVELT."
larrlnstoa'i Recommendation.
Following is the concluding platform of
General Carllngton' report, which em
bodies the recommendations that, by di
rection of the president, will be carried
Into effect Immediately by -the War de
partment: ''
I recommend that orders be Issued as
soon as practicable discharging, without
honor, every man in companies B, C, and
1 of the Twenty-fifth Intantry serving St
Fort Brown, 'lex., on the night of August
13, 116, and forever debarring them from
re-enl!stlng In the army or navy of the
United States, as well aa from employ
ment In any civil capacity under the gov
ernment. In making thla recommenda
tion, 1 recognize the fact that a number
of men who have no direct knowledge aa
to the Identity of the men of the Twenty
fifth Infantry who actually llred the shots
on the night of the 13th of August, 10,
will Incur this extreme penalty.
It has been established by careful in
vestigation beyond reasonable doubt that
the firing Into the houses of the cltlsens
of Brownsville while the Inhabitants there
of were pursuing their peaceful vocations
or sleeping, and by which one citicen was
killed and the chief of police so seriously
wounded that he lost an arm, was done hy
the enlisted men of the Twenty-flftli in
fantry be! i-iing to the battalions stationed
at Fort Brown. After due opportunity and
notice tha enlisted men of the Tweniy
P.fth cavalry have failed to tell all that
It Is reasonable to believe they know con
cerning the shooting. If they had done
ao: If they had been wllllnc to relate all
the circumstances instances preliminary to
the trouble It is extremely probable that a
clue sufficiently definite In results would
have been disclosed. They appeared to stand
together In a determination to resist the
detection of the guilty and therefore they
should stand together when the penslty
falls. A forceful lesson should be given
to the army at la,rgn and especially to the
noncommissioned officers, that their duty
does not cease upon the drill ground, with
the calling of the company rolls, making
check Inspection and other duty of formal
character; but that their responsibility of
offioe accompany them everywhere and at
all times. Moreover, the people of the
United State, wherever they live, must
feel assured that the men wearing the
uniform of the army are their protectors
and not midnight assassins or rlotou dis
turbers of the peace of the community In
which they may be stationed.
Censare for White Officer. '
On October 5, 1906, a squadron of th
Ninth cavalry, an organization of colored
troops, reported at Fort Sheridan, near
Chicago, under orders from the War de
partment assigning them to duty there.
Soon after this assignment there appeared
In the public press the following account
of a statement alleged to have, been mad
with regard to the mutter by Colonel Wil

"The negro troops would never have been

Colonel Pitcher. "I never liked them and

A Wash'n man recently looked into tilt
matter and found why he had such a mean

"L'p to about ton months ago I w.s
afflicted . wiih severs headaches, two or
three times a week and always on Sun
duy. "Indeed it became such a settled thing
that I dreaded to see Sunday come. At
first I ascribed the Sunday headache to
the fact that I did not tlse as early as on
other days. In order to test it I begun ta
rise just as early Sundays, but the lies 1
aches seemingly got worse.
"At last I concluded that coffee, of wlilrh.
I was very fond, and used particularly on
Sunday wa the direct cause of my trou

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Coaacllmea Tnra Down Mayor'
Vetoes la Lee Grler
Case.
Last evening the city council transacted
part of Its business and then took an ad
Journment to Thursday evening, when the
vote on sea'er and intersection bonds,
inltla-tlve and referendum and telephone
franchise ordinance will be canvassed.
The only matter of particular Interest
taken up wa the alleged shortage of Lee
Grler, former clerk of the police court.
The matter came up In a vigorous manner
when the mayor returned with his veto two
resolutions, one being a request that the
mayor make a demand for the shortage and
another resolution that the surety com
panies bonding the comptroller's and trcas
urer's offices check up those departments
and report at their expense. Reference to
the treasury department meant the ac
count of the former Incumbent.
Aa was expected, the resolutions were
paroed over the mayor's head by s vote
of 11 to Davis sad Jackson sustaining
the mayor.
It is now believed the Grler matter will
be brought, to a head before long. It is
up to the mayor to make the demand on
Grler or his bondsmen. If settlement of
the alleged shortage of $3,442 Is not mad
soon, then the city will bring action on
the evidence offered by Comptroller Lo
beck, who maintains he can establish
good case against Grler. Deputy IComp
troller Cosgrove and Mayor Dahlman have
been before the grand Jury on th Grler
matter.
Councilman Zimman pointed out last
evening that It Is the duty of the city
officials to proceed to recover the shortage.
Mayor Dahlman contended In the com
munication accompanying his vetoes that
gn expert accountant should check up the
various offices, but a strong majority of
the council are now with the comptroller
and against the engaging of outside ex
pert accountants.

FAMINE IN COAL IMPENDING
Car Shortas;) Prereata Loral Dealer
from I.aylnsr la Their Sap
ply for Winter. V
Condition In the car shortage situation
all over the country ar not Improving
and th coal men of Omaha continue to
fear a eoal famine. On said Tuesday that
th arrival of coal scarcely supplies th
current demand and there Is no chance for
the dealer to get any considerable stock
ahead for the winter. It is almost impos
sible to get anything from the Kansas
fields, though shipments come a little more
itadlly from Wyoming and Illinois, owing
to the fact that the railroads have direct
lines to the coal field In those two states.
Orders on the Pennsylvania mines have
lcen delayed Indefinitely.
The reason for this condition lie In the
business the railroads are called on to do
In the way of carrying merchandise and
grain, which are given precedence over
coal on account of the higher revenues they
pay.
Grain dealers, however, also complain of
lack of . cars. Local Implement jobbers
have been put to serious Inconvenience.
They wished to have large line of new
stock In the warehouses for the implement
dealers' convention, which is to be held
in Omaha neit week, and they are In a
measure doomed to disappointment. Half
their orders have been delayed, and It I
reK-irded aa certain that not all the goods
will arrive In time for the convention.
