Leo NJ. Foster, a member of company
L, Fourth infantry, now at Manila.
Fosters home is in Salt Lake City.
Utah postmasters were appointed to-
day as follows: Carlisle, San Juan
county, Charles Kingsland, vice Lizzie

Colsbley, vice David Heap, resigned
Sheriff John F. Howells of Salt Lake
county is here with requisitiCn papers
for a forger now in Virginia. The for
ger worked his little game on the Ma
tienal Bank of the Republic.
Congressman Osborne is in no way
responsible for the fact that the bodies
of the ToTrey troopers killed at Tupeio
arrived in Wyoming with express
charges unpaid. This charge has been
made by some parties in Republican
papers in the state. Quartermaster
General Ludington says that the failure
to pay the charges was due to a mis-
understanding on the part of Colonel
Scully, quarteTmaSter at New Orleans.
Senator Warren visited the house to-
day and conferred with Congressman
Shafroth relative to the publication of
a large number of copies of the recent
report on irrigation investigation. Both
gentlemen hope that this resolution,
which has passed the senate, will pre-
vail in the house. Senator Warren will
also try to secure an amendment to the

to the president tonight, which, if it
goes into effect, will relieve Major Cen
eral Miles of command of the army
and remove him to some department
to await orders. Among the few army
men acquainted with the rumor at a
late hour it was the general impress
sion that the president would sign it.
The numerous charges against diff
ferent departments of the government
have been ranking in the breasts of
Alger and the president. and it has
been decided to remove the cause. The
reason given will be that Miles has
deliberately set to work to destroy all
army discipline.
This move is thought to be a fore
runner of a complete vindication of the
government in the matter of beef con-
tracts and a reputation of all charges.
If Miles does not accept the order or
tries to pose as a victim of Ayers
spite. he will be met by the report of
the investigation commission, which
will be ready in a few days.
General Merritt will be placed in
charge of the army.
Should Miles demand a courtmartial
or an inquiry OF any kind the president
will grant his request, but he is set on
a change to put a stop TO the long
standing squabbles of the war depart
ment
