Lieut. Col. Russell Harrison. who was
sunmarily dismissed from the volunteer
inspector general OF Porto Rico, sttri-
butte all the responsibility for his re-
moval 10 Adjt. Gen. CorbIn
IT is not believed the president or Sec
rotary Root knew of the contemplated
dismissal or ordered the action taken.
IL is expected that tho president and
secretary OF war will make fun amends
10 Col Harrison for the injustice done
him and afford him a satisfactory meas
ure OF relief
In just what particular form this re-
lief Will come has not yet been deter
mined. The fun history OF Col. Har-
rison's dismissal from the volunteer army
places Adit, Gen. Corbin in an awkward
position. lie is charged with Justification
in order to prevent court OF inquiry
Tho precise history Of Col. Harrison's )
removal from the service is ~ follows:
ON Nov. IL of last year Col. Harrison
received "A cablegram at san Juan from
Adjt Gen. corbin summarily dismissIng
him and assigning no reasons for the
action Col Harrison Immediately cabled
protest against his summary removal
claiming that he should be- .~xwed time
I'm which 10 make up his accounts This
would require three or four weeks This
request was refused and Col Harrison
was compelled 10 pay clerks from his
own money TO assist in preparing his
accounts.
CHARGED WITH LACKING TACT.
Col Harrison cabled TO know II charges
had been preferred against him and ask
ing their character. Adit Gen. Corbin
replied that while no specific charges had
been filed affecting his integrity or record
AS a soldier, Gen Davis i'm charge OF the
department of Porto Rico, had com
planned that Col. Harrison was inexperi-
enced and deficient IN tact
Col. Harrison cabled and wrote asking
for court Of inquiry. This was refused
on the ground that no charge had been
made which would warrant such a court
Col Harrison then adiustSl his ac-
counts and came 10 this city. He has
since sought 10 secure either court OF
inquiry or some other satisfactory Vindi-
cation OF his record. j.. r. Michener,
former attorney genercl of Indiana, and
one Of the late eX-presldent's most init
mate friends, and Cot w. w Dudley,
who was commissioner of pensions under
Harrison became I'm a friendly way the
legal advisers of Col Harrison
Investigations set on foot developed the |
fact that Gem Davis had preferred no 4
charges of any kind against Col. lIarri- /

The quickest relief for a
cold is by Scots emulsion OF

You will find the edge taken
off in a night; and, in three or
four days, you'll be wondering
whether that cold amounted to
anything anyhow,
That's relief. If you tackle
