Counsel then called attention 10 tne

by the accused. Under these circuih-

perfectly protected against any results

heinous crime and in his statement 10
the investigating commission had de-
Tended his honor and innocence, as ne

a strong plea for the accused, asserting
that through this whole controversy ne
had conducted himself as an honest
man goaded to desperation by the cruel
and unjust accusations Of his superior

The Reply of Davis.
Colonel Davis, the judge advocate,
closed the argument. He said that ne
had no other idea from the beginning
than that all the facts and the whole
truth in this case be brought out. lie
said that If the accused thought himself
aggrieved by the statement of General
Miles he had a positive and sure rem

of inquiry, and he also had the undoubt-
ed remedy of resort to the civil and
criminal law.
But he saw fit to ignore all these
remedies and to take the matter in his
own hands. He had prepared with de-
liberation a statement which he had
read before the war commission. which
was grossly insulting and an undoubted
infracton of the army regulations as
charged On the question Of immunity
the judge advocate stated that in all
courts the language, in order to be priv

criticised, so, he said. had many other
high officers in the army, the heads of
bureaus and the admirals of the navy.
All had been more or less severely crit
