Washington, May 2T.-Since the
finding of the board of army officers in
the Fitz John Porter case there has
been the bltterest expressions on the
part of many republicans, including
senators, members of the house and
old army officers, and the president has
had some very earnest discussions with
reference to it. The testimony and
documents laid before the board have
been printed, and made over 1000
pages Of solid matter, and u large num-
Der of maps, drawings and diagrams
are also printed with the book. 1t
will at once receive the attention of
the senate and military committee. In
the meantime the president has decided
not to approve the findings of the
board, but has sent all the documents
to the judge advocate general, who
will go over the whole case again,
which will require several months.
The case, as seen from here, seems to
have become one of politics and not of
military evidence.

policy of Withholding their votes, and
this made necessary call of the house.
