AN ARMY EPISODE.
Reported Conflict of Authority Between
Two Major Generals.

Reported Conflict of Authority Between
Two Major Generals.
No information has been received at the War
Department in regard to the Indian troubles at
Antlers, except what has been furnished by
agents of the Interior Department orders
were issued for army officer TO go TO Ant
lers to see if the situation called for military
interference, but before he started
word was received here that peace
had been restored so the orders were revoked.
Since then the fight between the factions has
been renewed with increased vigor. United
States troops will not be sent to the scene
however. unless the Secretary of the Interior
requests it.
1t is said further that Gen. Schofield and
Gen. Miles had a disagreement in this matter.
The latter was ordered to send an officer to
Antlers to investigate the situation. and in
compliance Herewith he ordered the
officer in charge Of tho military school
at Fort Leavenworth to make the
investigation. When Gen. Schofeld
heard of this selection he countermanded the
order and politely informed Gen. Miles that
the military school in question is not a part of
his command. and consequently that officers on
duty there are not subject to his orders, ex-
cept when approved at Washington.
Thus IL appears two reasons are given for
the absence Of the military at Antlers, and it is
extremely difficult to ascertain which is the
real one.

The Case Of Mr.. Eeke,s

The case of James H. Eckels of Illinois, nom.
mated to be controller Of the currency, ap-
pears to be indefinitely hung up. Another ex-
ecutive session has been held and still the non,-
ination remains unreported by the finance COM
mittee. An energetic effort is being made By
some members Of the committee 10 have the
nomination recalled. but SO far, apparently,
without success.
Senator Vest of Missouri was appointed a
subcommittee to take charge OF the case. and in
accordance with appointment Mr.. Vest called
on Mr.. Cleveland and informed him of the
opposition that had manifested itself in COM
mittee. Still no action has been taken by
the President. despite the fact that the SEES
sion is speedily drawing to q close. 1t is
understood that Senators Sherman and Morrill,
have declared their unaiterable opposition to
the confirmation on the ground that the nomi-
nee is entirely ignorant of tine subject OF bank
ing and at least one prominent democratic
member Of the committee is also understood to
be opposed to confirmation. and it is this ener-
getic opposition. coupled with the non-action
OF the President, that resulted in the nomina-
ton not being reported.

Arbor Day Celebrations.

Secretary Morton has just received from the
state superintendent Of New Jersey pamphlet
containin the program of exercises for that
state to be held on arbor day, which will be
celebrated on the 21st instant. The pamphlet
also contains an interesting article on trees by
Secretary Morton.
The pamphlet has been sent to those persons
in other states having charge Of Arbor day
celebrations and suggests that in the case OF
outdoor exercises tree be planted in honor of
the new Secretary Of Agriculture.
On this subject it says: 1.-The fact that the
Hon. J. Sterling Morton is now the Secretary
Of Agriculture, q position for which be
is eminently qualified and specifically tai
ented, assures us that labor day will re-
ceive additional emphasis and tree plant
ing an impetus never before realized
There will be less theory and more
practice under his intelligent supervision OF
this important portfolio and it is deemed not
only appropriate, but also our duty to cele-
brate this sagacious appointment by planting
and dedicating . tree in honor Of this great
lover Of nature"

the selection depending on the date of their re-

NJ. Patenotre has received his credentials, but
those Of Sir Julian have not yet arrived. The

A Question OF Beans.

To tho Editor Of The Evening Star.
The following 10 formed in The EVENING
STAR, credited to the New York Nail and En-
press.
Egypt furnishes nearly all the beans used in
England. Carry the news to Boston.
What ails the paragraph is that there is no
logical connection between the premise and the
conclusion. The beans which Egypt furnishes
in great quantities to England are not of the
species phaseolus nanus, upon which the
physical integrity Of Boston Is 90 largely sus-
tanned, but the viola faba, commonly known as
"'oss beans" by those those who have most TO
do with them. They form an important part
OF the equine bill Of fare in England. but bear
no comparison a. human food with the Boston
ese beans. It u needless to carry the news.
Boston knows beans If the Mail and Express
does not. C.UW

CARING FOR THE HELPLESS.

Children and Animals Protected by the
Agents OF the Humane Society.
At the meeting Of the executive committee Of
the Washington Humane Society the reports Of
the agents for the month of March contained
the following statistics: Cruelty to snimals-
cases Investigated, 1927; remedied without pros
ecution, SlS; prosecuted and convicted, s;
unfit for work, SO; abandoned to die, l; killed
by agent, A. cases Of beating 8; overdriving, 2;
driving when CALLED or lame, Is; fines col
lected, SGT. For the three months ending
March 81 987 cases OF cruelty to ami
mails we're Investigated. Agent Wilson reported
dren investigated "a, of whom 10 were taken
from parents or guardians and committed to
asylums or orphanages. For the three months
ending March 81 70 cases were investigated
and so children were placed in orphansges,
church homes and asylums; were sent to the
Home of the Good Shepherd in Baltimore.
The committee appointed At the meeting in
March to wait upon the Commissioners Of the
District with reference to the cruel treatment
of q scholar by tho principal Of the
Weightman School reported their favor
able reception and the promise that the matter
would receive attention. The secretary re-
ported that no communication had as yet
been received from the Commissioners regard
ing the case, but that an article appeared in
The EVENING STAR, purporting to come from
the Commissioners, and as the statement of the
assistant district attorney as published in said
article reflected severely, and as the committee
believed unjustly, on the agent Of the society, q
committee was appointed to prepare correct
statement Of the case to be given to the press.
The society having but one agent, Officer
John Paine, to look after the abuse Of animals
and the demands for his service being far be-
yond his power to attend to, it was
resolved to employ another agent Is soon
as one fitted for the position can be OBJ
tanned. the hope being that the public would
come forward and by memberships or contribu-
tons enable the society to meet the increased
expense. Thecommittee on fountains reported
that three had been placed where greatly
needed. The hope was expressed that the COM
mittee on public meeting in the interest Of the
cause would arrange for one ct an early day.
