services, he was. upon the earnest recon-
mendation OF the President, and By spe-
cial act Of Congress, given the rank OF
lieuteDant-general.
Since he has been in command Of the
army he has been called on TO perform
many delicate and important duties. In
Guiding the suppression OF several Indian
outbreaks and In guarding the interests OF
the government in various conflicts be-
tween labor and capital The successful
employment OF Federal forces in averting
serious trouble at Chicago during the
great labor riots was mainly due to his
wise judgmen. and discretion. Presidents
Harrison and Cleveland reposed the ut
most confidence In his wisdom and dis
erection, and were guided almost entirely
by his advice In the employment Of the
Federal forces for the protection of gov
eminent property. and the preservation
Of peace and good order in the states
when the civil authorities had exhausted
all their resources.
HIS LAST TOUR OF INSPECTION.
General Schofold has recently concluded
an inspection OF the military posts OF the
army. Speaking Of his tour. he said:
Il desired to spend few Of the last
days Of my active service in the army in
special and thorough inspection OF the
army, with a view 10 making deductions
and suggestions. based upon my ex-
pericnce. for the benefit Of future ad-
ministrations. Although the suggestion
was my own. II met the very cordial
approval OF the President. and the Sscre-
tary OF War. / visited nearly all OF the
important posts west OF the Mississippi
river, including the Pacific coast except
some Of the posts which the Secretary Of
War himself visited In his tour.
MANY YEARS BEFORE HIM.
From his inclsive manner. firm step.
ford complexion, keen, and searching
eyes. II would appear that General Scho-
field has many years Of usefulness ahead
Of him. He Is still n vigorous old war
horse. His good habits and iron consti-
tuition have enabled him 10 escape most
of the disabilities which usually MAKE
the closing years Of veteran period OF
trial He has no settled plans for the
future. except that he is going 10 Pee Lee,
o.. for short season OF fishing. i'm
mediately after his relief from active
duty. He will in all probability live
quietly at his country home for awhile.
and then make an extensive tour of the
continent. New York city Will probably
be his ultimate home. The veteran has
often been requested TO write his me-
mors, and IL Is more than likely that
he will devote portion of his leisure to
the preparation Of a story Of the historic
events of his country IN which he took
such an active part.
