likely that he will be promoted. as others
in the army hav been, for violating good
faith; but it is certain that he will not
be punished. The crime committed was
SO fragrant, so daring. so cold-blooded that
the courtmartial, composed Of some of MS
friends. could not find any verdict but
guilty and make accommodation for his
pun ishment
But Capt. Carter is not only rich, but he
has rich relatives by marriage His ricn
relatives have political pulls. His case
has been withheld from the President for
more than a year. The papers in the case
were taken from the office of the judge
advocate general 10 the Secretary of War
An official in the Office of Gen. Miles was
told that il was worth 5000 TO have the
papers in the case so handled that Gen
Miles should not have opportunity to Off
cially enforce them. That was accom-
plished. No matter how.
President Mckinley knows all about the
case, ana mas DSeh visited Dy strong pOit-
zeal workers in behalf of Capt. Carter No
effort has been made to secure new
trial The case is so clear that the Pres
ident could do nothing but approve the
findings of the court, and, therefore, the
papers have been purpOsely kept from him.
No new trial has been asked by this dis
tinguished army engineer officer because
a new trial could not change the facts
According 10 a prominent army officer
the statute of limitations will relieve the
wealthy contractors implicated with Capt.

up until that time. The Attorney Cen
eral has the papers. and is said to be
looking over the case" He win hold
the papers for another month or six weeks
and then the statute of limitations will
