Chicago, November 9.-Clarence
New, until within a week corporal Of
c Company, Fourth Infantry, U. S. A,
stationed at Fort Sheridan, has been
busted" His comrades are told this
in the post bulletin.
The expression busted" is a slang
word which, in army parlance, sig
nifies the reduction of a non-commis-
stoned officer to the ranks without ex-
PLANTATION.
No charges Of any kind are prefer
red against New He had no hearing
before a summary court or court
martial He was simply told that he
was unsatisfactory.
The private soldiers charge is the
first vistim among the witnesses who
dared to tell what they saw and heard
on the day that Capt. Lowering had
Private Hammond dragged by his feet
and kicked and stabbed the man while
he was unable to defend himself.
Col. Hall refuses to be interviewed
on the subject. Capt. Edward H.
Browne, of G Company, also declined
to divulge the reasons for News re-
duction. Capt. Browne intimated that
it was ncbody's business, that it was
an "impossibility'' to have any appre-
citation CT army methods, especially
| when it came to a matter of discipline.
EX-Corporal New is the soldier who
was ordered by Capt. Lowering to take
charge of the prisoner from the guard
ing before the Court of Inquiry he said
that he had seen the captain kick and
prod Hammond Continuing, he said
that when they had got the prisoner
into the court room and the rope was
taken off Hammond began to cry, say
ing that he had been kicked and stab
bed. Hammond had shown him the
marks after he had been taken back
to the guard house One of the marks
in the leg where Hammond had been
prodded was at least a quarter of an
inch deep.
Here is where New is said to have
earned the enmity of the officers who
uphold the conduct of Lowering These
questions were put by members OF the
court
Col. Snyder-Do you think such
force was necessary?
New-Well, l could not say as to
that. 1t was necessary to get him into
court.
Col. Cardiff You had an order to
get him into court, and he had lain
down, what means would you have
adopted to get him into court?
New-Well, / would have got cart
or litter. | would by no means have
dragged him in a time Of peace.

Under the rules of two years ago. these
having been adopted pending the framing
of new rules. The present ptApose is to
readopt the old rules without important
changes.
Representative Barrett of Massachusetts
will propose two amendments. One SEEKS
to give the minority larger rights than 1t
enjoys in presenting amendments and SUBJ
stitutes and in securing time during de-
bate. He is also urging a change by
which an amendment to an appropriation
bill will be in order when the SUBJECT
has been acted on favorably i'm either
house or has been recommended by the
head of a department. At present the rules
are very strict against amendments of
this character, and individual members
have little latitude in securing additi ons
