WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10th, 1899

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10th, 1899
Gen. Miles has made many new
friends by the dignifed manner in
which he has carried himself while
smarting under the dirty personal at
tack made upon him by Commissary
Gen. Eagan. in his testimony before the
War Investigating Commission. To a
man of Gen. Miles temperament, it has
been no easy matter to.sit still and say
nothing while waiting for the War De-
partment to call down and punish his
subordinate for having called HIM about
every known sort of liar. Congress
is also waiting to see something done,
some punishment meted that will fit the
crime, and if something isn't done very
soon. Congress may take the bit in its
teeth and do something itself. The &C.
ton OF President Mckinley in compell-
ing Gen. Eagan, through Secretary AL.
ger, to revise his testimony aad leave
out the objectional language, isn't sat
isfactory to anybody, because it doesn't
punish and humiliate Eagan sufficiently.
Senators and Representatives haYe very
freely expressed the opinion that Gen.
Eagan has demonstrated his unfitness
to hold such an important and respon-
sible position, regardless of Gen. Miles,
and not few of them have said that he
should be cashiered.
The routine business in House and
Senate is being pushed along as rapidly
as possible, but the chances for an extra
session, continue to grow, owing to the
uncertainty about many things in the
