INVESTIGATING AN
 ARMY ~OUTRAGE,"

1 Editors who have been publishing stories of army mismanagement anu outrages perpetrated upon the troops
 have been invited by the commission Of inquiry to testify before that body and supply it with any information i they may have concerning the derelic- i ton of officials or the ill treatment of i troops.
 | Apropos of this the following story , of an army outrage was published af- ter the arrival of the troops at Mon tauk Point:
 One Of the fever patients in the hos pital. who had fallen into a ccmatose condition, was pronounced dead by an i Incompetent medical officer. The re-
 mains were hustled into a pine box without a covering, which with others containing the dead bodies of fever vic ] tins was placed outside the hospital tent and exposed for hours to the broil- ing sun.
 The agony Of the supposed dead man was eXcrutiating. He realized that he was about to be buried alive in the shallow trench which had been dug to receive the bodies Of those who had no relatives to claim them. After en- during mental and physical torture for hours some soldiers came to move the box in which he lay. By supreme ef- i fort he managed to slightly raise an arm and move his fingers. The sol diers saw the motion, and instead of carrying him to the trench, they took him to the hospital tent and dumped i him OF the ground, where he lay for i hours without attention, and finally l died. victim of neglect i When the authorities at Washington read this story their indignation was aroused to a high pitch and an investi- gation was begun immediately.
 Inquiry at the hospital revealed the fact that no soldier by the name given in the story had died at the hospital. but that such man was a patient whC was rapidly cOnvalescing.
 The reporter was questioned and said soldier had told him the story as he had written it, and gave the authorities ! the name of the informant
 Before ordering a court martial, which was practically decided upon, the investigating officer sent for the soldier and asked him why he had cir culated such an outrageous falsehood. The man admitted that he had told the story to the reporter, but added he had also told the reporter that he had dreamt it.
 Thus ended the investigation of one of the most horrible outrages of the war.-Chicago Times-Herald.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Next Tuesday
at II o'clock, there will glide off the
ways at the yard Of the Newport News
Ship Bull ling company, the biggest,
most powerful, and probably the most
generally effective battleship in the
United States navy. This will be the
Illinois, which is expected by the naval
designers to be a worthy god.child Of
the state whose name she bears. Larger
by a thousand tons than the Oregon;
larger than the Iowa, now the biggest
battleship in service, the Illinois is still
so designed that she will be able to
battleships, while in the matter of
speed she will rank with any Of them.
The most striking difference between
the Illinois and the battleships now in
service, is the high free board of the
former, enabling her to fight her guns
from a great elevation above the water
in seas 50 heavy that the guns Of the
lower vessels would be submerged ald

are also expected to result from this in.

The dimensions of the Illinois are as

The main battery will consist of four

Continue to Rage Unabated-So Help
but n Good Rain.
DENVER, Oct. 3.-The forest fires on
the west slope Of the Rockies continue
to spread and only a heavy rain can
stop them. In the vicinity of Steam.
boa. Springs, there has been a rainfall
which checked the fires there, but they
are still smouldering, and will start
into lie again un ess there shall soon
be more rain or snow. Local Fore.
caster Brandenbury says he has OBJ
served no change in weather conditions
thac point to rain, though the welcome
prediction Of the weather bureau at
Washington for Colorado is Showers
Governor Adams said: II think the
only thing that will put a stop to the
fires is a good heavy rain. There is
little use trying to put out the fires by
the usual means, as the fire is not con.
tinuous. From what I can learn, II
must be in.
Probably + fly Different Places.
In my opinion the fires are due wholly
to accident. Campers build a fire. A
spark blows intotae underbrush, which
s very dry and a fire is the result. 1t
Is so easy to start a forest fire just now
that 1t Is almost impossible to ascertain
the origin Of it. Sparks from railroad
engines may have caused some fires
Within a day or two fires have ap.
peared on the west slope of the Pixies
Peak range AMI large sections OF tim.
Der are being destroyed. Great vol.
umes Of smoke can be seer rolling over
the crest of the range. The fires seem
to be burning fiercely along the west
side OF Mount Badly, which rises to an
altitude Of l., 900 feet, -four miles south
Of Pixies Peak. AT sunlown the vol.
ume OF smoke decreases percepiioly.
Tae people Of Aitkin county are be.
coming terrified over the h lvoc wrought
by the fire that is now raging near
Aspen. The county commissioners are
advising with the city authorities as to
the best methods to cneck the fire, but
as yet no plan has been outlined.
The fire on White river has burned
over an area of 100 square miles and is
still sweeping eastward in a stretch 10
miles wide. The people Of the Upper
White river have
Fought Fire For Three Weeks,
day and night. They have been aided
by Forest Rangers Dunn and Giblet.
Couriers from that section say they
have seen nothing of the other govern.
ment rangers. The towns of Kokomo
and Hahns Peak are reported to be in
danger from the fires surrounding
them. Glenwood Springs is enveloped
in a cloud OF smoke, and the situation
in that vicinity is rapidly becoming
worse.
The prairie fires between Living
Springs and Corona have caused q con.
siderable loss to stockmea, and as
fuller accounts are received, the mag.
nitude Of the disaster is more apparent.
Among those burned out are Stewart &
Adams and Will Eppel. The range for
many miles has been destroyed, and
the outlook for the coming winter is
not a bright one for the cattle and
sheep industries Of the burned district.
