HIS SENTENCE COMMITTED
Executive Clemsncy Extended. in Capt.
Walsh's Case.

The President today commuted to the for
feiture of. three months pay the sentence
of dismissal imposed by a general court
martial convened at Manila, P l., in the
case of Capt. Harry Walsh of the 47th Vol
unteer Infantry. Captain Walsh is now in
the Philippines and will be ordered to re-
sumo his duties with his regiment at once
He has been under arrest ever since his
arrival in the Philippines in consequence
of an escapade at Malta on the journey en-
route to Manila. When his regiment arrived
at Malta the officers were invited ashore
and entertained most Hospitality by the
officers of the British garrison, with the
result that Captain Walsh induIged in too
much wine and transgressed the strict rules
of military propriety. His conduct caused
such a scandal that his commanding officer
Colonel Howe. demanded his immediate res
ignation. Captain Walsh complied with the
demand, but on arriving at Manila with
drew his resignation- whereupon he was or
dered before a court martial for trial on
the charge of conduct unbcconling an Off
Ger and gentleman growing out Of the
Malta incident.
He was found guilty by the court and
sentenced to be dismissed from the service.
The sentence was approved by Maj. Gen.
Otis commanding the department. and the
case was forwarded to Washington for the
action Of the President.
Capt. Walsh is a District boy Of unusual
popularity. and made a good record during
the Spanish war as a captain in the list Dis
trict of Columbia Volunteer Infantry, his
company being on the firing line at the
capture of Santiago. A strong appeal for
ciemency in his behalf was made by many
prominent residents of the District, and in
recognition of his good military record the
President, on the recommenda ton Of Sec
retary Root, commuted the sentence of dis
missal to the forfeiture of three months
pay, amounting to $3.50
