SAYS DAY SHOULD
HAVE DlSOBEYED
General chaffse Disapproyes of
Inquiry Courts Finding.
BOTH OFFICERS RELEASED
REFERS TO MAJOR WALKERS
ORDER AS TAINTED

WI WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE in
w coming mail brings the full
printed record of the proceedings
in the courtmartial cases Of Major l.
w. T. Waller and Lieutenant John
Horace Arthur Day, of the marine
corps, growing out of the killing of
some native bearers or Cargadorres in
Samar. The record shows that Major
Waller was acquitted of the charge Of
murder, but that General Chaffee, de-
claring that there has been a mis-
carriage of justice in this case" dis
approves the finding and the acquittal
with the exception that while Waller
should not have been found guilty of
murder, the court should have included
a lesser offense.
General Chaffee's endorsement is
very strong, and he declares that with
the exception of three who deserted,
no overt acts We're committed by the
Cargadorres; but, on the contrary
those sent to their death continued TO
the last to carry the arms and ammu-
milton of the men after they We're no
longer able to bear them, and to rem
der in their impressive way such serv-
ices as deepens the conviction that
without their assistance many of the
marines who now survive would also
have persisted"
In the case of Lieutenant Day. who
also was acquitted, General Chaffee
disapproves the finding to the specifica-
ton and charge of murder. He says
that Lieutenant Day should have
known his commanding officer, Major
Waller, had for three weeks been I'M
der a test of mental and physical en-
'durance such as few men are called
upon to undergo; that he was sick with
fever. his temperature 105, and his body
covered with painful sores. Day was
the only officer not sick on duty and
in the full possession of his faculties.
and his plain duty was to counsel delay
in the execution of orders TO kill the
natives. General Chaffee refers to the
order of Major Waller as tainted, -
and says that sit should have prompt
ed him day to positive disobedience
of the same"
Notwithstanding the disapproval, the
| two officers we're released, as they
could not be tried twice for the same
! offense.

TRIAL TRIP A SUCCESS
Chicago inventor Has Perfected
New Method of Street Rail-
way Propulsion.

Chicago, July IA change in the
method Of street railway propulsion is
the result of a trial that has been made
in Chicago of a local invention Small
electro-mag nets. imbedded between the
rails of the track are used TO pun The
cars.
The eIeetro-magn ets form one-half
of the motor, and are placed in the
ground in line half way between the
tracks. The other part. the armature.
is attached lengthwise to the bottom OF
the car. 1t is long iron bar, cut up
into feet, and SO attached that the ends
ordinarily are within an inch of the top
of the magnet boxes But the primary
difference between the new system and
the trolley car motor is that the new
car is not propelled by friction of the
wheels with the track, but by the in
visible force of magnetism.
Each magnet is connected with main
feed wires, heavily insulated and bring
ing electricity from the power house.
But when the car is not running over
them, the magnets are not magnetic.
In other words, they are not in the
circuit, except when the car comes over
them.
The arrangements of the magnets is
according to polarity, first north, or
positive. and then south. or negative,
is the scheme for attracting the car and
making it run smoothly. In the car,
on the other hand, by the use of a
small storage battery, the polarity of
the feet of the aFmature is controlled
The operator of the car can, with one
single movement of his one lever, stop
it, or reverse the movement instead.
The great saving which the inventor
claims is in the amount of electricity
required. He says seVenty-flVe am
peres will suffice for forty cars, while
the present trolley systems require
seventy amperes for one car. 1t is also
claimed that the cars can be run faster
than trolley cars, because they are al
ways under perfect control.

ing six persons, was manipulated sue
