MILES LIKELY
TO BIZ RETIRED
Said That President Will
Take Such Action
TIRED OF FRICTION IN ARMY
General Miles Has Reached She Age
Of 81 and Can Now be Retired
at Any Time
TIRED OF FRICTION IN ARMY

Washington, March 22.-At the cab
met meeting yesterday the publica-
tions relating to the statements made
by General Miles before the senate
committee on Thursday we're brought
up. but consideration of them was
postponed until all the facts in the
matter became known.
Whatever intentions the president
had With respect to the treatment to
be accorded General Miles, his future
action will be somewhat influenced by
the fact that General Miles statement
before the senate committee has been
represented to him as being privi-
legged.
The president proposes to read the
testimony given at the hearing and
to consult with different members of
the committee on military affairs be
fore finally announcing what he pro
poses to do. It is significant that long
after the cabinet meeting adjourned
Secretary Root and the attorney gen
eral were closeted with the president.
The president is known to have
stated that he was tired of the friction
in the army and in the event that it
is decided that General Miles state
ment was a privileged one, he will at
no distant day take action looking to
his retirement.
In discussing the matter yesterday
with his callers, among whom were
senators and representatives, the
president took the position that the
lieutenant general Of the army should
entertain toward his superiors the
same respect that he would expect and
demand from his subordinates.
The lieutenant general reached the
age Of 62 years last August, and under
the law he can be retired at any time
now in the discretion of the presi
dent.
In the printed report of the testi
mony given by General Miles before
the committee there will probably be
nothing sensational. He submitted q
long, carefully prepaSed argument
which was itseh in printed form, and
while reading it to the committee
punctuated it with the remarks which
have attracted so much attention, al
the same time requesting the stenOg
rapher not to take them down. AS the
official report will therefore in al
probability not contain any of the sc
we're criticisms he is alleged to have
made upon his superior officers, there
will be nothing tangible upon which
the president or secretary of war car
base an official reprimand of the com
manding general if they so desired.

DIR. BALL BRANDS
CHARGE AS FALSE
Says He Tried to Have
Cooper Retained
NO POLITICS IN DISMISSAL
Congressman Twice Vent 10 Director
Of The Census Department in
COOpCr'S Behalf

Congressman l.. Heisler Ball th.H
morning branded as false the state
ment appearing editcrially in the
Smyrna Times Of last Wednesday, re-
garding the dismissal of Irving 4.
Cooper, Union Republican, from the
Census Bureau.
The Times blames DR.. Ball with
having Cooper dismissed, and the
Congressman has otherwise been mis-
represented. DIR. Ball emphatically de-
mics all of the allegations made by the
friends of Mr.. Cooper The Evening
Journal recently published another de-
nial made by DR.. Ball to a similar at
tack.
Dr. Bali says that he had nothing
whatever 90 do with the dismissal OF
Mr.. Cooper. Not only did he have
nothing to do with the discharge of
uhe Smyrna man, but he did all in his
power to have him retained in the de-
pertinent. Those who are in posi-
ton TO know have been in the posses
sion OF the facts for some time, and
have wanted DR.. Ball to make a state
ment.
This morning Congressman Ball was
L In Wilmington, and was asked CON
cernlng the published statements that
he urged the dismissal Of Mr.. Cooper
lie also was shown the editorial from
the Smyrna Times.
Dr. Ball said;
"The article Is filed with false state
ments and is misleading. The facts In
the case are as follows: The Hon. Wal
ter o. HOifecker did write to me and
see me in person, requesting Mr..
CoOpers retention However, that was
mot until after the department had re-
quesied mo to designated theone wish
ed retained, and had so complied.
AT that time 1 was informed by the
: department that | could only have one
: retained This was the understanding
3 when the bill was presented and pass
8 ed by the House Of Representatives
p Notwithstanding that fact, | requested
o the director to retain the appointee
Mr.. Cooper At Mr.. Hoffecker's re
quest ] went to the department. an'
urged Mr.. Coopers retention.
Later. Mr.. Cooper called on me an'
I arranged TO 60 with him before thl
department, but, being reminded or
rule of the department THAT no ap
pointee WIS allowed to interfere ~
n this way. suggested to Mr.. Coope
, CHAT IL would not be safe for him 4
accompany me there. The followinl
morning / called on the director OF tn
s department tho second time and agali
b urged Mr.. Coopers retention.
T. ellis dismissal was not for polltica
reasons. l never requested his dis
missal. but on two occasions strongl
urged his retention. This is one eX
ample of tho cases of ingratitud
which have come to my notice"

suit Statute Before Making
Further Commitments

After hearing the evidence in the case
of George G. Sisco, of Smyrna, the boy
who was committed TO the Ferris Indus
trial School last November, and on the
application Of his grandfather was given
another hearing, Judge Spruance made
some scathing remarks about the judge
of the Municipal Court. He said that no
wanted the Judge of the court notified
that before he commits another boy to
come familiar with the evidence required
to commit He said that the record Of
any case should show prima facias evil
dence
In the Sisco case the mother, who Is a
resident OF Chester. came to this city and
asked the boy If he would like to go to a
school. Upon receiving his consent, she
made an affidavit in the Municipal Court
that he was incorrigible, and the boy was
committed without any further proof
This. Judge spruance said, was not ac-
cording to statute.
In dismissing the boy from the custody
Of the institution. Judge Spruance sal,
that he was prompted to give this de
clslon because he was not resident o
New Castle county.
In the future the Municipal Court mus
prove residence in this county before /
can commit.

father of Ssco. while j. Frank Ball ap

Notwithstanding that the Adams
tax law has been declared uncOnstitu-
tiOnal by the courts, and the Levy
Court has ordered all of the collectors
to return the money they have re-
ceived, Collectors DonahOe and Dickey
still retain possession of the money
they collected under the law, and will
not return IL to its owners until suit,
now pending, is decided.
People who feel they were victimized
when they were compelled to pay the
tax. are indignant at DOnahOe and
Dickey for the course they have pur-
sued. From this money they could
procure large revenue in interest,
and they say that it should be return
ed to them at once.
In speaking to a reporter for the
Evening journal this morning Mr..
DonaIhoe said: Il have no wishe to
hold this money, and if had my way
the people would have had it back long
ago. Ever since | was stopped by the
Chancellor the money has been de-
posted in the Farmers Bank IN the
name of my bondsmen and myself,
and there it is going to remain until
the suit brought against me in the Su-

Mr. DOnahoe has loaned $4,000 TO the
Levy Court out OF his collections, anC
at the courts request turned over - tC
that body 81 400 more. He would have
turned in all of his collections, bu

he made them. In the case of Tho
Savings Fund he was asked to keel

bfttor war Is now being waged between
former Representative George Frizzei
and former state Senator Webster
Biakely, Of Rising sun. They both want
TO represent their district In the state
Senate next year. The probabilities are
that neither one will be nominated, but
that a dark horse will step in and win.
Addicks has tried to call or first one
and then another OF these bclligcrents.rec-
lognizing that It both run they will be de-
featcd Each contends that he is right
and that the other fellow should get out.
Friends of the two candidates say that
t'rizzel and Blakely are about ready 10
throw Addicks overheard Frzzel, IL Is
known. has no great love for Addicks and
he lis not making a secret of his change

PARTIES WILL NOT UNITE

IL was umored on the street before
going to press that the Addlcks har-
mony tender lhad been rejected on two
grounds That the committee had no
power to act without calling a conven-
tion for that purpose, and because,
while the fundamental differences oN-
ist the only way TO command the full
Republican vote is TO continue Uhe re-
spectiye organizations.
The committee, however out of
courtesy to Chairman Allee, decided
not to publish it's letter until Mr.. Al
lee should receive It,
The one-sided harmony proposition
submitted TO the Regular Republicans
by the Addicksltes several months ago,
| in the form of a letter, was
considered and promptly rejected
by the Regular State Central Commit
tee. which met in the office of CHAIR
man Phillip @. Chwchman, in this
city. today.
After the opening Of the meeting the
communication was read by Secretary
Frank L. SpeaBman and was discussed
/ by all of the members.
1t took but a short time TO ascertain
the sense of the committee on the
scheme. and 10 was evident from Ia,
beginning that there was no sentiment
among the Regulars that favored q
compromise on the antagonism to Ad
| dicks.
There is no doubt that the only
stumbling block to harmony I'm th'
