COnniSSary General Bagal TO
Stand Trial.
CHARGES INVOLVE DISMISSAL
1t is Said Issue is Between Miles
and Alger-Short Trials Pre-
dicted Specifications.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1S.-The court
martial for the trial of General Eagan
will be convened here at 10 a. m. on
January 25th.
The real issues before the court
will be Maior-General Miles and Sec
rotary Alger.
The court-martial Of General Miles
may follow on charges preferred by AL
ger and Corbin.
There is already strong intimation
that the case against General Eagan
will be handled with gloves.
The official order for the court-mar-
tfal was signed this afternoon by the
Secretary of War. General Alger said
that the arrest of General Eagan would
not take place until the Judge Advo-
cate-General had sent to him the
charges and Specifications. These were
prepared to-day, but We're not sent TO
the Secretary of War on account of the
absence Of Acknowledgement Corbin,
who returned this evening from New
York. It was necessary that Adjutant-
General Corbin should be present for
..-e PRONUNCIATION of the detail Of the
court Had General Corbin been at the
War Department General Eagan would
undoubtedly have been placed under
arrest to-day.
General Corbin said to-day that there
would be nothing sensational or dram
attic in the arrest of General Eagan.
There would be no rigorous applica-
ton of the rules of arrest as applied
TO young officers. General Eagan
would be expected to conform to the
military law, as he is familiar with it
from experience.
General Eagan Will probably leave
his office tomorrow morning immedi-
ately upon the presentation OF the or
der of arrest. He will retire to his
home. but he will not be compelled to
stay there.
The impression is that the trial will
be short The inference from the fact
that General Eagan apologized TO the
committee is that he may plead guilty
to whatever language is charged in
the specifications as warranting charg-
es of conduct unbecOming an officer
an. a gentleman, and leave the court
to decide whether the language conSti-
tutes that offensa under the provoca-
ton to be alleged in eXtenuation. He
will plead not guilty to the charge of
conduct prejudicial to military discip-
line and Will put in a plea Of war
ranted (by the criticisms by General
Miles Of the Commissary Department. y
There appears to be no escape from
conviction on the first charge, the con-
sequence of which is ordinarily dis
missal from the army.
The court may find him not guilty
of the second charge, but it is under
stood already that the accused, if found
guilty of either or both charges, will
be recommended to Executive clemen-
cy.
AT present there appears to be no
doubt that every possible influence will
be eXerted on the court to have it
palliate General Eagan's offenses.

BOWLING ANALYSIS.

wickets, II runs-Average, 10.
Lane-23 balls, / maiden, 4 So overs,
? wickets, II runs-Average s. ).
NOTES.
H b. NJ Commissioner Kenney was
present and followed the game with
unf1agging interest to the end.
Mr.. Give Davies. as captain, may
be justly proud of having made the
winning hit, besides adding substan-
TALLY to the score of his team
At this juncture, the scorers, like
everybod else, became so excited, that
they had to be reminded TO put down
the runs.
There is never any dizziness in a
cricket match in which DR.. Murray and
A. St. NJ. Macintosh participate. You
can no more put a damper upon the
joviality of the former than you can
down the refreshing animal spirits and
self-confidence of the latter.
1t was pleasing to see such a veteran
athlete as e. II. WOdehouse at the
wickets again.
1t is becoming daily more patent to
all that the base ball-cricketers" are
q most important factor. They prac-
ticany saved the day for their side on
this occasion.
Hatfield's splendid bowling average
shows him TO have lost none of his old
time skill.
Judge Stanley, who has learned all
his cricket in Honolulu, furnishes a
striking illustration of what may be
accomplished with determination and
practice.
The retirement of Harvey for a duck
was the severest blow to the H. c. c. s,
after his performance of the previous
Saturday, when he carried his bat
for %.
r. Anderson, bTawny son of Cal
edOnia, was formerly captain Of the Sell
kirk team in the old country, where he
led them to victory in several import
ant matches. To see him drive" a
ball is a treat.

BROUGHT TO BAR DAVIES & co. WIN
Close Cricket Between the
New Crack Teams.
A Beat of Only Four RunS-Details OF
the Game Bad Luck of
Premier Batter.

Those interested in cricket who had
all during last week looked forward
to see a good contest between the Ho-
nolulu c. c. eleven and a team repre-
senting Theo. H Davies 6 Co., Ltd,
had their expectations fully realized
on Saturday last, when the promised
match came off at the Old recreation
grounds, Makiki, under the best aus
pices possible. The wind, while a trifle
high, had the effect of rendering the
air delightfully."- cool. The players
turned up in full force, without being
more behind time than usually. Every
body was pleasant and gOOd-tempered
and the game concluded amidst a lot
of fun and excitement, with but a mar
row majority for the victOrs. AS a
scrutiny of the H. c. C.'S will show,
they certainly formed one of the most
formidable combinations ever put in
the field by local cricketers, and it re-
bounds all the more to the credit of the
Davies & Co. men, therefore, that they
succeeded in defeating their opponents,
making Go runs as against 81. The
match was full Of surprising incidents
and the vagaries OF Dame Fortune,
who must always be reckOned with,
more or less, in all kinds of sport.
Viggo Jacobsen was the scorer for
the HOnOlulus, while w Richards act
ed in a like capacity for Davies & CO.
Messrs. J. H. Walker and II. NJ. Sara
kindly undertook the duty OF umpiring
the game. Appended is the official
score:
