was one Of the most daring feats ever

the opinion among those who know

IT GROWS OUT OF a STORY or ALLEGED CRUELTY
BY GENERAL JAMES r.. CHAMBERLAIN
IN THE WAR

Rochester. v. Y. April lit is stated here to-
night that General James r. Chamberlain, an officer
Of the State G.. A r. has preferred serious charges
against General John \. Reynolds Past State Com
mander of the q. A. r. The story has been told
for thirtyve years that. after the battle of Trent
Road y. c. on April 49, 1852 a rebel prisoner lying
wounded on the ground shot in cold blood by
General Chamberlain. The man was not killed by
the shot but was taken into Newburg pris-
of war. Recently General Chamberlain made
application for membership in the Loyal Legion,
an organization composed only of commissioned
officers. 1t is said that his application was re-
jected and that of the causes OF rejection was
that certain members Of the Loyal Legion OBJ
jected him because of the report above Re-
ferred to.
General Chamberlain. IL is said. filed charges
in the c. A. r. last week. and these charges were
served yesterday General Reynolds. Technically
General REYNOLDS is charged with conduct unbe-
coming a member of the q. A. r. with violating
the muster OATH and with violating the laws OF
the land. presumably the laws Of Islander. General
Chamberlain charges that on divers occasions Cen
oral REYNOLDS has sandered him by repeating the
story that originated at the affair of Trent Roa l.
that he protested against General Chamb"ralns
appointment By General Rcdman when the latter
was commander of the Veteran Brigade: that at
various meetings of the G.. a. r. and reunions the
story has been circulated by General Chamberlain.
General Reynolds denies the jurisdiction of The
co,rt-nartiai appointed by the state Department
Commander TO try tho case, and Will appeal 20
General c.. s. GARRISON. OF Nebraska, National
Commander and demand a National Investigation.
