METCALF DENIES 1T.
Declares the Charges Against Him
Are Made By an Enemy.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 20.--A dis
patch to the Times. fromf Cleveland, o.,
says: When General Metcalf was seen
at Elyria, twenty-five miles from Cleve-
land, O.. tonight, where he is visiting.
he said:
Il understand that the affidavit pre-
sented by Hall was merely signed "a
soldier That kind of an affidavit is
not paid any attention to. The matter
with Hall is that he did not get a pro-
motion. There is nothing in the charge
at all.
THE whole story was investigated
last spring by the Manila army author
tiles. and by Dean c. Worcester, a
member of the Philippine commission.
At that time the charges were found
to be utterly groundless.
This is the first time that my name
has been connected with the story. The
story first originated in a letter SOL
dier boy wrote home, and some little
incident was greatly exaggerated by
this soldier boy. l can't account for
Halls action unless he feels resentment
against me because he was not recon-
mender for promotion and expects to

Secretary Root Talks of the Charges
Against Colonel Metcalf.

Washington. Nov. 20.-The officials of
the war department are surprised to
hear of the charges made against Colo
mel Metcalf for whom very high opin-
ion is entertained in army circles.
Secretary Root expressed the belief
that the charges were not true. but said
he had no information regarding the
matter, of which he had not heard any
thing until given the press report In
view of the high rank of the officer
and of the explicit account regarding
the alleged crime contained in the affi-
davits accompanying the charge, it is
expected that the officials will take
formal action with view to ascer-
tanning the accuracy of the published
statements.
