dicial to good order and discipline, be-
gan during the day. General Lloyd

He was willing to admit General
Smith gave instructions to Major Wal.
Ter to kill and burn and make Samar a
wilderness; that he wanted everybody
killed capable of bearing arms and
that he did specify all over 10 years
old, as the Samar boys of that age
were equally as dangerous as their
elders. Captain David Porter, marine
corps, and Lieutenant John H. A. Day,
marine corps, were the only two wit
nesses examined. Their testimony de-
veloped nothing new.
Major Littleton w. T. Waller, ma
rine corps. will be the only other wit
ness for the prosecution. He was un-
able to be present on account of Ill.
ness, but it is expected will be in at
tendance shortly.
The defense will call several Of
fcers of the Ninth infantry.
Major Waller and Lieutenant Day
of the marine corps, who were tried
by courtmartial here on the charge of
executing natives. of the Island of Sa-
mar without trial, have been acquitted.
