There are some peculiar features about the
court martial ordered for the trial of Cadet
Whitaker, the colored West Pointer, worthy
OF passing mention ia this letter
Brigadier General N. A. Miles, the President,
is a nephew, by marriage, Of General VIM r.
Sherman. who has been most outspoken ia his
opposition to the Presidents policy. But Ma
jor a. B Gardner (of the Bureau Of Military
Justice) the Judge advocate of the court and
General Schoheld are bitterly a-rayed against
each other, and serious results may follow
their misunderstanding.
The composition of the court is also some
what peculiar. No member wGs cadet at the
West Point Academy after colored boys were
introduced there. Capt. Royal Z. Frank (now
Major). Of Maine. graduated in 1883; Major
Lewis Merrill, of Pennsylvania, In 1855: Lieu

Virginia, Major L. v. Sumner. OF Pennsy lvania,
Captain j. n. Craig. OF Massachusetts, Captain

Should General Miles, as President. favor
