eral Miles:
War Department, Washington, Dec.
22.-Sir: By direction of the president,
communicate to you his conclusions
upon your course in the interview 10
which your attention was called by my
letter of the 10Th.
Your explanation of the public state
ment made by You is not satisfactory.
You are in error when you say that you
have the same right as any other eiti
zen to express publicly an opinion regard
ing the questions pending in the course
Of military discipline. The established
invarable rules Of official propriety nee
essary TO the effective discipline OF the
service impose limitations upon the pub
lie expression Of military officers
AZ court of inquiry has been held on
the matters in controversy and report
had been made in which one member Ct
the court had dissented in some particu
lars from the majority, and the report
was pending before the reviewing author
itv. At this point the lieutenant general
OF the army saw fit to make a public ex-
preston Of his opinion as between the
majority and the minority OF the court,
accompanied by criticism OF most e
we're character. which would not fail to
be applied by the generality Of renders
to the naval officers against whose view
your opinion was expressed. 1t j OF no

holding the o ce which you did, TO eN-
press any opinion. Your conduct was IN

sumed that General Miles will submit
without further comment.
That General Miles appreciates the
situation is shown by the deep concern
he manifested and his frequent visits to
the office of Secretary Root. 1t was nee
essary for him to write two letter, to
meet the demands OF the department, and
even then there was no expression OF sat
on the part of the secretary for
the second explanation. However, Secre-
tary Root himself regards the incident as
closed. At least he does not purpose -
take any further action unless obliged to
do SO

Then he fitted up a packing case, paid
the freight charges on it and engaged a
carter to take it to the Hamburg pier at
certain time. He then returned to his
lodgings and boxed himself up, after he
had provisioned himself with a dozen
cans of condensed milk, box of prunes,
three dozen cakes of chocolate, coffee in
bottles and some bread The carter call

Beck declares he was in the box until
the ship reached the Hoboken pier,

he was almost dead from hunger, cold
and terror. Tonight he was reported to
