COL. FoRSEY's REPRIMAND.
Secretary Herbert Promul gates u
General Order Containing 1t.

OIutI
Secretary Herbert has promulgated a
general order reprinIanding Col. James
Forney, United States Marine Corps, IN
accordance with the findings OF the court
martial which tried him on charges OF
irregularities alleged to have been commit
ted while he was serving as conmandant
of marines at the Brooklyn navy yard
Included in this order is a review by the
Judge advocate general OF the Navy OF
the proceedings OF the court, In which mat
body is criticised for the manner in which
il conducted the case The Judge duEo-
cate general remarks that the court erred
in admitting its judge advocate after the
court was cleared for dehberatlon. 1hlS
is characterized as a grave irregularIty.
Censure is also given by the judge advo-
cate general because the court excluded
the tesumuny of one Of the stcnogIdpheIs
at the Forney court of inquiry
Concerning the acquittal OF Col. ForneS
of the charge of embezzlement, the judge
advocate general says that, inasmuch as
unqualified approval by the department
of the finding upon this specification and
charge would be equivalent to an assertion
by it that Officers Of the Marine Corps may
use government coal for private purposes,
without violating law, regulation, or
propriety, it is deemed must important
that the department should qualify its ap
proval by stating that the construction
piaced upon the clause of the naval appro
| priation act, by counsel for Col Forney
| and apparently acceptable by the court II
| not tenable.
Col. Furney's counsel contended that he
| had a right to use fuel under this clause
| which provides an appropriation" for heat
| ing barracks and quarters, for ranges anC
| stoves for cooking, heat for enlisted mer
| aud for sales to Officers"

Another Added to the Number of Vic
Tins at silver Lake.
KLAMATH FALLS, January /. - The
latest news of the holocaust at Silver
Lake reached here to-day by a Lakeview
stage driver, Bob Oglesby, who says that
exception that one more body was found
in the ruins, which makes a total of
forty-two lives lost. The great distance
of Silver Lake from this place, the deep
snow and general bad weather have
made communications next to impos-
sible. OF the disposition of the dead
and in jured nothing is known here. The
situation, however, must be terrible.
How the dead were buried and where
collins were secured is not known. The
nearest settlement to Silver Lake is Pals
ley, more than fifty miles southeast. 1t
is understood he p was sent to the death
stricken settlement from that place.
1t seems remarkable that some person
has not reached Lakeview or this place
with the full particulars Of the tragic af-
fair. About one week has now elapsed
since the fire, and no word has been re-
ceived further than to show that the
lives were lost. The residents of South
eastern Oregon are Mortified over the dis
tressing affair. Many of the persons
burned to death are well-known all over
the State. 1t is understood that relief
party was organized at Paisley and left
for Lakeview Wednesday, two days after
the tragedy occurred. 1t was doubtless
able to render valuable assistance to the
stricken survivors and needed aid in
burYing the dead.

STATE FUNDS ALL RIGHT.
indianapolis Surprised by the Failure OF
State Treasurer Gall.


INDIANAPOLIS. January 1.-State Treas
urer Albert Gall, who was caught for
$65, 900 in the failure in 1898 of the In
dianapolis National Bank, and who has
operated a mammoth carpet and wall
paper house for over thirty years, being
reputed one of the wealthiest men in
indianapolis, last night turned over all
his property, real and personal, to Adolph
Siedensticker and Frederick BaChman
as trustees for his creditors. Treasurer
Gall will go out of Office in few days,
having served two terms as State Treas
urer. He attempted to save himself
when the Indianapolis bank failed by
taking paper securities from President
Haughev, but on an order from the court
the securities had to be returned to the
receiver OF the bank, and Gall was LETT
to lose the entire amount. Friends are
supposed to have come to his relief, so
that the extent of his obligations cannot
be learned. The trustees refuse to talk
of the matter. Gall has never carried
less than 100000 in stock at his carpet
house, and has suffered on account of
the hard times. There was in circula-
ton last night rumor to the effect that
Gall was short in his official accounts to
the amount OF SG4 900. The rumor arose
from the fact of the transfer Of the stock.
When questioned regarding the matter
last night Mr.. Gall said:
There is not one word of truth in the
rumor. Every cent of the funds belong
ing to the State is in the vault at the
Statehouse, and could be turned over to
my successor tomorrow morning if nee
essary. | am preparing to pay off a
large portion of the State debt, and the
payment will be made promptly jan
nary "
