Lodge Of MsssaeAasests came to the dc.
fence of The secretary Of the navy. The
argument In defence Of Commander Reitcr

But Commander Reiter had no information
that such WAS the case. HArsupdia had
been arrested under the authority Of the

the executive department had taken this
action because Guatemala was small

Bou,ellc Of Maine said that while he en-.
'ertained the greatest respect and esteem

WAS 80 unfortunate A. not to be able to
commend the Secretsryk action toward
Commander Reiter. lie simply rose to cay
that, looking at the case from his own
standpoint, he would not not have written
the letter TO commander Reiter that the
Secretary has published, or IL he had writ
