A dispatch from Washington has
this concerning the former acting
commandant at Rock Island arsenal:
Capt. M. w. Lyon, United States
army, has rendered his resignation
rs an officer of the ordnance corps,
and thereby hangs a story. Until
few weeks ago Capt. Lyon was the
ordnance inspector at the Providence
Iron works, Providence, X. l., where
mortar carriages are being built for
the government. In addition to his
purely technical duties he also acted
as disbursing officer for the govern
ment in connection with the work
under his charge. Several weeks
ago his accounts were inspected by
an officer of the inspector generals
department. Irregularity was found,
resulting in charges being preferred
against Capt. Lyon. The amounts
were not large, but numerous, ag-
gregating 5000 or 500. The detail
for court-martial was prepared and
charges and specifications placed in
the hands Of Col. Barr. the Judge ad-
vocate at Governors island. When
notified Of the charges and pl aced
under arrest. Capt. Lyon rendered
his resignation. His offense having
been aggravated by his action in de-
stroying the records of his Office.
after being placed under arrest, it is
doubtful whether Secretary Lamont
will accept his resignation. A court
martial is now thought to be inevi-
table, though Col. Barr. who has the
papers in charge, has found it neces-
sary to quash some of the specifica-
tions against Capt. Lyon by reason
of the destruction of the records,
Causes . Sensation Here.
This news concerning the popular
captain will cause a profound sensa-
ton in the three cities, where the
captain was SO well known and SO
well liked. During his service at
Rock Island arsenal some of the most
important work ever undertaken
there was constructed the Rock ISL
and viaduct, the replacing of the up
per deck of Rock Island bridge and
the building of the Moline water
power pool being under his immedi-
ate direction as acting commandant.
At the Rock Island viaduct banquet
held at the Harper on the completion
OF that work he was the hero of the
hour. Great was the regret felt
when he was ordered from Rock Island
to Providence. and equally great re-
gret will be felt over these surprising
disclosures, while not a few will be
inclined to doubt them until the ac-
cusations are proven to have reason
able ground.
