TOO STRICT FOR AMERICA
BaIIington ROOth Relaxed Military Rules
and the Army Loved Him.

and the Army Loved Him.
New York. Feb. 24-Commander and
Mrs. Darlington Booth left the National
headquarters Of the Salvation army in
Fourteenth street at o'clock tonight
for good Mrs Booth said she would
send after her few remaining personal
belongings but she herself would not re
turn 10 the office. Mr.. Booth said they
proposed to retire quietly, but they
should turn over everything to their
successors, and that they should con-
suit leading citizens to learn how best
the interests Of the American people
may be conserved in the matter of dis
posing of some Of the army property Of
which he was acting as trustee.
MIR. and Ms. Booth said they were
going to friends house 10 take very
much needed rest.
Comma nder Booth told what was
done in the meeting, in a statement
which he dictated to a reporter just be-
fore leaving the building. He said the
meeting was composed Of the most rep
Tesentative of the 400,0 attendants OF
the army and that it was a gathering
not of his calling together. He was in
vited to address the meeting in order
that his version of the trouble might
be heard, along with the statements by
the field commissioner. Eva Booth.
The commander affirmed that he had
been dismissed. and that Colonel Nicol
and Commandant Herbert Booth came
here with power to Gust him. He gave
the reasons why he he had refused to
go 20 London.
There Were several conditions under
which he would go. They were:
First-That three American brigadiers
should be present at all meetings in
London.
Second-That Colonel Eadie should at
once be recalled.
Third-That Commandment Herbert
Booth should return to Toronto and re-
main there until Ballington's return to
America.
Fourth-That Colonel Nicol remain
here and assist Mrs. Booth in the COM
mand during his absence.
Fifrh-That Commander Eva Booth
should return 10 England
The conditions were not accepted. the
''Eadie faction especially Objecting to
the one requiring Herbert TO stay in
Toronto. They would not consent to
the request that Commissioner Eva
withdraw from America Besides.
they insisted that Mrs. Maud Booth
must return TO England with her hus-
hand. Ballington Booth.
Commander Booth continued. saying
that he was asked to go to London TO be
court martialed. This he would not
submit to. He further said that the
statements issued by the Eadie faction
were misleading. TO say the least. II is
thought by several members of the
army who were willing to express an
opinion that Ballington and Mrs. Booth
were out of the Salvation army for
good, but that they would soon be at
work with many of the present army
officers and privates in organizing a

Omaha Saivationist's opinion of the Action
Of Darlington Booth

Omaha, Neb.. Feb. 24.-The news Of
ti1e secession Of Ballingfton Booth was
a surprise TO Staff Adjutant and Mrs.
AIcAbee Of the Salvation army here.
1T would be a very foolish thing for
Commander Booth to do" said the ad-
jutant mo matter how much love we
may have for a leader he is at once con-
demned for characterization. 1t IS not
a question Of England and America.
Mrs. McAbee received a personal let
ter from Mrs. Booth dated FEB. y,
which leads her TO believe that Com
mander and Mrs. Booth had no idea OF
disobeying orders. for she says:
