CHICAGO. March 5O.-The Chronicle
Washington's correspondent says that
Lieutenant Commander Francis f. Greene.
OF the cruiser Montgomery, who committed
suicide at Montevideo last January. was
charged with intoxication and under sus-
pension at the time of his death. IL is
alleged that Commander Merrill of the
Montgomery. prejudged the case of the
lieutenant commander. making it difficult
for him TO secure a hearing before Rear
Admiral Schley. commanding the squadron.
The evidence adduced in the case shows, IL
is said. that several members of the ships
company saw nothing unusual in the ac-
tons of Lieutenant Commander Greene at
the time he was charged with intoxication
while Lieutenant White said that Greene s
condition was maudlin. The dispatch also
says that proper respect was lacking at
the funeral OF the dead officer. Lieutenant
commander Greene was formerly an In
diana man. and his widow now resides at
Vincennes. She has received no statement
