SOLDIERS HOME.
An Investigation Into its Manage.
ment.

DAYTON, August 1.-THE Soldiers
Homo Investigation committee have
taken all the testimony for the proseou-
tlon and to-day began on the defense.
The Sergeant at the barracks testified
that the men were not treated harshly,
were not punished unjustly and did not
complain OF personal punishment. None
were sent to the dump unjustly. Men
often came in drunk and were sent
quietly to bed, but II they remained
over the pass limit were put upon the
dump for thirty days. Some officials
were more harsh than necessary. Dump
work consisted In picking up debris on
the campus. The liberty Of the home
grounds was ri zen them, but they were
not allowed to pass when once abused,
for several months. The quarantine
quarter, where the incorrigible, insane
and epileptics we're kept, was the same
care Of kind-hearted Sergeant. There
was chance for minor officials to vent
personal spite, and 1t was often used.
Governor Patrick was grufi, but kind
hearted. The soldiers felt the lack Of
sympathy and feared strict discipline.
Punishment for the infraction of rules
was sure, but seldom fell on innocent
heads. The burden Of complaint came
from few men from each barrack.
Probably five hundred Of these were
well behaved men, but were infected
with an uneasy feeling. The weak
minded were misguided. Some Of the
complaining came from them. The
stories Of cruelty and brutality and bru-
tally were denied. The men relating
such stories were irresponsible. Cutch-
con called attention to the stories Of
terror spread by the press throughout
the country, and said the testimony had
not sustained them.
General Slocum said this garden spot
Of America Is painted as n penitentiary,
and many persons call 1t Andersonville,
influencing many soldiers, who would
like to come, to remain away. One
mile square Of land finer than any park
in America, Central park not excepted,
was pictured as prison pen, frighten-
ing men away who desired to come, and
all because OF sensational stories unsup-
ported by reliable testimony. If such
be the action of the press, God spare me
from its clutches. Let the soldiers
know throughout the land that para
disc awaits well behaved men. Their
duty has been performed and food,
shelter, clothing and a square mile OF
park beautiful by nature and art and
buildings, wherein pleasure and amuse-
ments can be found, are at their COM
mand.

The New York Witness referring TO
the Cleveland Halpin matter says: SIN
our last we mentioned report, appar-
emily authoritative, that the law part
ners Of Governor Cleveland had been in
struoted by him to commence prose
cution against the Buffalo Evening
Telegraph for libel; and certainly there
could scarcely be imagined better
cause for such prosecution, If the ex,
ceedingly damaging charges made II
that paper were not true. Next day the
report about prosecution was said t.
be false one, and we have since seen o.
heard of no denial whatever of thos,
damaging charges, either on the part o
Governor Cleveland or his friends. Their,
are plenty Of contemptuous reference
to the charges as mere electioneerin,
scandals, very improbable stories, etc.
and attempts are made to damage tn
previous character Of the ruined woman
1t is added, moreover, that she coul,
not be seduoed for she was widow
This way Of dealing with such direc
circumstantial charges is exoeedingl
unsatisfactory, as 1t leaves the Governo
in the unenviable position Of oarryin
about with him wherever he goes
closet skeleton. Now that the charge
against Mr.. Cleveland have been widel
published and remain undenied, we n
longer feel at liberty to withhold ther
from our readers, being matters Of grei
public interest. We oondense them frol
