General Elwe11 S. Otis.

sation of the war commissions history
and was regarded by old army officers
as one of the most remarkable attacks
ever made in the history of the service.
General Eagan's statement to the COM
mission was bitter personal attack
upon General Miles, so entirely unquali-
fed as to scope and language that the
war commission on hearing it's con-
clusion ordered a brief executive ses-
sion, after which the doors were opened,
the witness was recalled and business
resumed in the usual way
That his statements concerning the
commanding general were not the result
of a sudden outburst Of passion was
clearly shown by the fact that General
Eagan read his remarks from a care
fully prepared typewriter copy Not
the least remarkable phase of General
Eagan's statement was the language in
which it was couched. There was
scarcely a phrase that would not have
been characterized as sensational in or
binary official utterances.
General Eagan, after the hearing was
over refused to say whether he had
any further move in prospect in fore
ing an issue between himself and Cen
eral Miles.
II have said all I intend to say for
the present" he replied, ''and if any one
wants to bring the matter to court
martial / am ready for that, too as I
have already stated before the commits
Sion.''
AS soon as the nature of General
Eagan's statement became known at
tention was directed to army headquar-
ters to ascertain to what move
would be made by General Miles, The
latter, through Colonel Mitchler, his
chief aid, beyond saying that he had
stood for the soldiers, declined to make
any statement, saying that now was
not the time for talk and that before
taking any action it would not only be
proper but necessary to wait until he
had an opportunity to receive through
the regular channels and to peruse the
testimony furnished by General Eagan
He would not talk about a court mar
tial.
Altogether the intimation construed
was that General Miles would act with
elaboration if he decided to take any
gestion that he might decide to ignore
the statement altogether.
OF course decision to that effect on
the part of General Miles would term
mate the incident. But should he de-
eide to take notice officially of the at
tack, the next step would be for him
to prefer charges with the president
against the commissary general. These
might be based on several technical
grounds, such for instance as conduct
tending to the destruction of good or
der and discipline. 1t would be for the
president to pass upon the demand and
he might adopt one of three courses
Refuse it, grant it, or, instead, order a
court of inquiry
In this latter case, the body would
have the power to go into the question
of veracity which has been raised, and
in fact the conduct of both generals
would be practically under examina-
/ ton.

THE LETTER.

The following is the text of the letter
ordered by the war inquiry commission
to be sent to General Eagan:
Brigadier General c. P. Eagan, Com
missary General, War Department:
We respectfully inform you that after
your testimony was read yesterday the
following resolution was unanimously
passed:
Moved, that the commission receive
General aganS testimony without
comment, that it be printed at once, but
held for the consideration of the COM
mission. Carried
Having now considered the questions
involved we have determined that in
many instances the vituperative lang
uage used by you was not such as
ought to have been addressed as a wit
personal attacks and irrelevent state
ments contained in the papers submit
ted should be eliminated and before re-
ceiving it as testimony, we request that
you revise its language and if you
choose resu bmit it for our consideration
We herewith return your papers. Very
respectfully, CHARLES DENNY,
Vice President.
MILES STICKS TO IT
Chicago, Jan. 13.-A special to the Trib-
une from Washington says:
When General Miles was seen in regard
to General Eagan's statement before the
war investigating commission, he said: 'I
shall pay no attention to a man who seems
to forget that he wears the uniform of
the United States army, and that this dig
nlty snould carry with with 1t the INSTINCTS OF

Fifteen Men at the Chicago Crib
in Peril
And the Supply of Food is
Short.
TUGS ARE UNABLE
o Break Through the Frozen
Barrier.
Rescuers Are Waiting For the
Wind to Change.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-Fifteen men ara
imprisoned by the ice at the Sixty
eighth street crib and are threatened
with starvation unless help reaches
them by Saturday. Their supply of
food will be exhausted by that time,
and an impenetrable ice barrier faces
the city engineer and the relief corps.
A change in the direction of the wind
and thawing weather are the only hopes
of the imprisoned city employees at the
crib.
City Engineer Ericsson was worried
yesterday about the ice which is now
piling up along the lake shore and pre-
venting access to the cribs. Frantic
appeals from the Sixty-eighth street
crib came over the telephone in the
morning for relief before the food sup
ply gave out. 1t was declared that the
canned meats were almost exhausted
and that the men were in danger of
starvation unless relief came from the
city by Saturday.
BREAKING THROUGH FHE ICE.
Mr.. Ericsson Immediately sent out
Paul Brown, the engineer in charge of
the cribs, to make test of the ice re-
SiStance. Mr.. Brown started out in a
powerful tug yesterday morning to
reach the two mile crib opposite Chi
cago avenue. 1t took the tug three
1t reached the crib it turned over a sup
ply of food to the employees.
Paul Brown then attempted to break
the ice field beyond the crib. East
winds had driven the ice foes toward
the shore, and for four miles out the ice
was five inches thick In the paths
made by tugs the ice cakes were piled
up to a height Of four feet. Engineer
Brown gave up the task Of reaching
any of the other cribs and came back to
report to the city engineer.
As soon as Mr.. Brown made his report
the books were examined to learn the
dates on which the food was sent to the
different cribs. With the exception of
the four mile crib at Sfxty-eighth street
the crib men were found to be able to
stand a long ice siege. Before the ex-
telephone communication was receiv-
ed from the Sixty-eighth street crib
asking frantiea1Iy If the men were go
ing to be starved out by the ice.
HEMMED IN BY ICE.
Around the four-nile crib is a massive
field of ice, split here and there by fur
rows which prevent the men from reach
Kept busy steering blocks of ice away
from the intakes, so that the. water sup

Ell CANEY TO WEST POINT.
Walter L. Sharpe, Late of the Rough
Riders, Candidate.

Chicago, Jan. 13.--Among the contest
ants for admission to West Point mill
tary academy who will take part in the
examination at the Chicago manual
training school Saturday will be one of
the heroes of Ell Caney. Walter r.
Sharpe, whose heroism during the ia
nous charge of Col. Roosevelt's rough
riders had become a matter of history,
is the one who aspires to the honor.
Attorney l. G. Conde, a, friend of the
Sharpe family made known the young
mans hopes yesterday.
Walter L. Sharpe is the son of L. L.
Sharpe, formerly manager of McVick-
er's theater. When the war broke out
young Sharpe was member of the
phomore class of the University of Chi
cago. After the famous charge at Ell
Caney, where Captain Allen N. Capron
was killed, Sharpe was among the miss
ing. When he turned up alive, but much
emaciated, it was learned he had ac-
companied the body of the captain, at
whose side he had fought to the sea-
coast, where he became ill. Sharpe's
clothing was riddled with bullets in the
battle one Mauser ball shattering a
pipe in his pocket.
Sharpe is almost of age and is nearly
feet tall and an athlete

Members of the House Go Home
Over Sunday.
No Legislation Accomplished
For the First Week.
THE MEMBERS EXPECT
To "Get Down to Business In a
Week or Two.
No More Sessions Now Until
Late Monday Afternoon.

Immediately after the roll was called
In the house this morning requests were
presented for excuses for twenty-one
members, most of them until Monday
or Tuesday. Some of these have been
compelled to go home with the grip.
When Chaplain Buckner offered
prayer the first ones to whom he called
the attention of the throne of grace
for mercy were those who have been
stricken with sickness.
Jaquins of Cowley, Populfst, moved
that as long as most of the members
seemed to want to be excused, that
when an adjournment is taken the
house adjourn till 4 o'clock on Monday
afternoon, and the motion carried.
Brooke of Shawnee asked that his
name be recorded correctly on the jour
nal. The reading clerk persisted in call
ing him Brooks but he said as there
was only one of him he wanted his
name recorded Brooke"
The house got into a Squabble over a
resolution introduced by Burkholder
that the ergeant-at-arms be instructed
to get sufficient chairs to accommodate
the house, which was amended by Mich
OILS of WOodson, who asked that the
sergeant-at-arms be instructed to put a
railing across the rear of the hall to
keep the lobby back
Longley of Washington said a railing
would look outlandish. Brooke also op-
posed it, saying that there ought to be
enough SerSedntS-a -at-armS to keep the
lobby back, and it would take more men
to get the lobby behind the railing than
1t would to keep them back without
railing.
Osborn of Douglas said: eff this
house cannot do business without being
corralled, think it had better adjourn.
If the lobby won't keep back without
fence it ought to be excluded from
the floor. 1 am opposed to any barb
wire fence business
McKeever then sprang up and came
to the support of the proposition.
Il am in favor of a railing" he said
THE members in the rear of this hail.
especially, feel the need of it. Some of
their constituents who want something
continually persist in erewding up to
see them, I don't blame the constit-
uents. but it is uncomfortable for the
members. If a barb wire fence is the
best to keep back the lobby L am in
favor of a barb wire fence"
After considerable discussion Bahb
of Sedgwick, Populist, moved as an
amendment to the amendment that the
barbed wire fence be a Spanish trocha,
ten feet high, suspended from the ceiling
by pul1eys, SO that it could be let down
If the corporation lobbies poured in too
thick.
