"GROWLERS STAY AT HOME"
Alger Administers Rebuke to One
CriticiSing Commissary Department.

Washington, d. c.. July 23.-There
have been Il good many criticisms of
the conduct of the staff departments of
the army during this war. and most of
them based on Insufficient evidence.
Among these was one made by very
prominent New York citizen, charging
the commissary department with gross
dereiction. This was brought to the at
tenton of Secretary Alger by his per-
sonal friend. George Dodge, and be-
cause Of the prominence of the critic the
secretary felt called upon to make the
following response:
MY Dear Mr.. Dodge: The Lieuten-
ant Colonel whoever he is. referred to

men endured during the campaign which

they were gotten. He knew the necess
sity of remaining in line of battle and
forcing the attack to as early Il termina-
ton as possible. He knew that every
thing was being done that could be

man who is writing in n way to spread
dissatisfaction among our people at
home and, in fact to misreprescnt the
Lieutenant Colonel he refers to. and cast
unjust reflection upon the cOmmissary
general Cthan whom better and more
energetic and faithful man never filled
the office is unpatriotic. unjust, ana
knows nothing about army life in war.
You and | know what this means. 1t
has always occurred and always will.
This is war and war would not be war
without it, What shame that grum-
blers at home are trying to do anything
to eclipse the glory of that magnificent
victory. no matter what hardships the
soldiers endured. The GROWERS are al
