MAY RELIEVE GEN. MILES.
Command General May BE Court
Martialed and Dismissed.

Washington, Jan. 20.-There is serious
talk In administration circles as TO the
advisabilty Of court-martialing Maj. Gen.
Miles, or relieving him from duty as COM
handing general of the army.
1t is manifest that the president and
Secretary Alger are not yet done with
Gen. Miles, and that il is proposed TO take
action of some kind against him, but
what its character will be will depend
largely on the developments of the Eagan
trial and the report of the war invesiga-
ton commission
The administration is incensed at Gen.
Miles because of the tenacity with which
he continued the beef investigation, not
withstanding that the war commission
found as a result of its investigation that
the beef furnished TO the army was good
and had not undergone chemical treat
ment.
The beef packers and members of con-
gress are stiffering the backbone Of the
administration by use of their influence,
and 1t would not surprise friends of Gen.
Miles If the matter should eliminate in
his relief or cuurt-rnartial
The administration also has not forgiv-
en- the general for the interview he gave
upon his return from Porto Rico and
should he be court mart.alod this may be
q matter OF charges.

New York. Jan. 22.-rhe Herald cor.
respondent at Berlin SAYS: The news
OF a sensational reporting that the
German consul has been ousted from
the courts of justice at Samoa by his
American and British colleagues OF
the CondOminum, has caused consid-
cradle excitement here. The matter
is also occupying the most careful at
tention Of the government. Its main
decision is that Germany is firmly re-
solved in the solution Of the matter to
adhere strictly to the terms of the
treaty Of Berlin. Should ii be found
that the German consul deviated from
the provisions OF the treaty he will he

subject, said: According To my idea
the question of Samoa is not one that
