Major General Chaffee DsapprOves
Of Court MartiaPs Findings,
WALLER Is CONDEMNED.
Sending OF Natives 10 Their Death
Psrtook More OF Unlawful RetaIin-
ton Than JusliAablo Act Of War.

Manila, May 25.--Ohicial findings Of
the court-mariial that tried Mai. l.. W.
I, Waller and Lieut., John A. Day OF
the marine corps for executing natives
on the island Of samar without trial
have been made public The reviewing
authority Of the court, Maj Gen. Adna
r, Chaifee, COMMUNICATIVE Of the
American forces, has expressed It's dis
approval Of the courts findings in both
cases.
Referring to the case Of Mai. Waller,
the reviewing authority says;
"The sending OF the natives in ques-
ton to their deaths partook more of
unlawful retaliation than a justtlsble
act of war, In justice to the Ameri-
can military service, the findings OF
acquittal demand that they shall not
meet with unqualified approval.
1.-THE marines In 5am&r underwent
great suffering before their rescue, and
their officers, from their sick beds,
voiced the revengeful anger Of the men
who telephoned TO MAJ. Waller ad-
vising that the steyedores be killed.
Mai. Waller received this message
while he was sick from fever, suifer-
ing acute pain of the body, due TO expo
sure and his eXertions In behalf of his
men, and mental anguish concerning
their fate, which had long been in
doubt Maj Waller was at the time
In telephone communication with Gen.
Smith, who commanded the American
forces In Samar but he deliberately
chose not 10 consult Gen. Smith re-
garding his contemplated action, and,
rather than forego the execution Of
his unrestrained will, he assumed the
power the laws Of war and the customs
OF the service confer upon commanding
officers only in time Of war.
"Giying heed TO the mental condition
of Maj, Waller as much Of the find
ings OF the court as are % the effect
that sal Waller is not guilty Of MUIR
der are approved But the reviewing
authority Is az a loss to understand
why the court did not find against Mai.
Waller in the minor oflense. With the
exception noted the acquittaal, as II
appears IN the record Of the proceed
inys Is dlsapproyed,'
Referring To the case or Lieut.. Day,
the reviewing authority says;
1.-The accused knew that for three
weeks Mai. Waller had undergone a
test OF HIS mental and physical endur-
ance such as few men are called upon
to suffer While fully conceding the
grave responsibility assumed by q sub
ordinate officer in wilfuly disobeying
an order Of his commanding officer, still
the weighty reason related with which
Lieut.. Day was acquitted, so tainted
Mai Walters order that Lieut.. Day
should have been prompted TO positive
dlsobedence. An officer must be con-
scientously regardfu Of the unques-
toned legality of his agency in taking
the lives of his fellow men. Above and
beyond all personal consideration Off
GERS must guard the name and honor
Of the country. Had Lieut. Day been
actuated by such consideration he
would probably have prevented one OF
the most regrettable incidents in the
annals Of the military service OF the
United States"

A BIC ROW AT STANFORD.
Spirited Rumpus Breaks 0ut in The Ranks Of
The University Faculty.
Prest Jordon Peremptoriiy Dismisses
Prof Pesse OF the Latin Depart-

Stanford University, Cal, May "a
Another spirited quarrel has broken
out in the ranks Of the Stanford uni
versity faculty, forclbly recalling the
summary dismissal Of Prof. Ross a
year ago, aud the widespread contro-
versy arising therefrom. This time
Prest. David Starr Jordan has request
ed the resignation Of Prof Il. NJ. pease.
at the head Of the department OF Latin.
and, falling to obtain the same without
a counter demand being made for his
motive, has dismissed the professor
from the service Of the institution.
on March % Prest Jordan made the
formal demand upon Prof Pease for
the latter's resignation His letter was
replied to on April p. Prof. Pease de-
manded, in view of his ii years service,
a full explanation Of the act which he
characterized as arbitrary and unwar-
ranted.
on the same date Prest. Jordan
couched a letter, in which he declared
that the Interests OF the university
would be served by a reorganization Of
the department Of Latin" but Prof
Pease was persistent, and pressed his
demands. whereupon he was summary
dismissed on May IS, the orders TO go
into effect July 81 next
Prest Jordan stated IN this letter
that he reluctantly explained his act
by charging the professor In Latin with
splnShuess and asserting that the lat
ter's personality made il Impossible for
any executive officer Of the university
10 get along with him. Prest, Jordan
closed his final communication by stat
ing that he would neither personally
trust nor respect Prof Pease.
Then the storm broke in earnest, and
yesterday Prof. Pease framed a most
bitter letter which be sent 20 Prest.
Jordan today. In this letter Prof.
Pease bows to the authoritative power,
declares he was invited 20 the chair
al Stanford, little knowing that It's
president would interfere with the La
tin department, and says he II removed
because he openly sympathized with
the depoSed Prof Ross. The writer
then quotes excerpts from communica-
tions alleged TO have been sent upon
the subject by eastern professors de-
nouncing Prest. Jordan In the most
scathing terms and closes with a
sweeping rebuke and the expressed re-
gret that Mrs. Leland Stanford's
generosity should be rewarded by the
so-called unworthy conduct OF the
highest executive officer OF the uniyer-
sity.

TELLS STORY OF COLLAPSE
Former Managing Director of Grain
Drying Company Gives Evi-
dence ON Big Failure.

BERLIN. July 14.-Adolf Schmidt for
mer managing director OF the Treber-
Trocknung (grain drying) company, whose
collapse brought about the failure Of the
Leipsiger bank about a year ago for 20o,-
OO0,OO0 marks (S50, 900 ,00o) dominated the
court at Leipsig today which is trying
the banks directors. Schmidt, who was
searchlngly examined for hours, dealt with
the intricate accounts of the Treber-Trock-
nung company with an air Of openness,
truthfulness and almost injured innocence.
His nimble mind had an answer ready for
every questio Though a prisoner, he
was as much I'm, >ase as anyone in the
courtroom. He mr., various irregu-
larities, like back-6. W :. les in books,
but affirmed that all OF -e simply
devices to save the COMP the
effects of newspaper attacks an ed
that the unusual measures we're PEI :tly
legitimate. In the end Schmidt admitted
with a smile that for a time the Leipsiger
bank had unfortunately been the COM
pany's only source Of revenue and said
his confidence in the final success OF his
alcohol-distilling invention was based dur
| ing the critical period before the collapse
| on an agreement with his American COM
| petitors, going into effect on New Year s
| day, 1902, under which he was to have
| control of the international market.
| Schmidt, who is 43 years of age. has for
| FIVE years been a noted figure in central
| German business. His vast operations had
behind them. as It appeared from the evil
dence submitted in court today, his per-
sonal fortune Of 100000 marks and the
| fortunes OF the other directors of tho
company aggregating 2S.oOo.0oo marks.

INTEREST OF GOOD ROADS
Managers of National Association Ar
ranging to Equip and Send
Out Special Train.

ST. PAUL Mimi, July 14.-It is proposed
by the National Good Roads managers to
equip and send over the entire Great
Northern system a special good roads
train. The first formal conference to that
end was held today with Vice Presidents
L. w. Hill and ]. w. Blabon Of that rail-
way. Martin Dodge, In charge Of the divi-
sion OF the American train department for
good roads, was in the city last week
making preliminary arrangements, and r.
w. Richardson secretary of the National
Good Roads association and special gov
ernment commissioner, and J. w. Abbott,
road commissioner for the mountain states,
are still in the city and were with the
party that saw the railroad officials today.
Secretary Wilson of the Agricultural de-
partment, is very much interested and has
secured the active cooperation Of Senator
NJ. A. Hanna, and 1t is probable that both
those gentlemen will be In this city in
September for the good roads convention
at the time Of the Minnesota state fair.
Final decision has not yet been announced
by the Great Northern officials, but II is
considered reasonably sure that the pro-
posed special good roads train will be sent
out over the entire system.

have arrived here.
While Illinois was standing into the har-

an obstruction and hole was punched in
it's bottom.
Two small compartments filled with
water. The crew were piped to collision
quarters and the water-tlght doors were

into the inner harbor. Illinois was
eventually backed off and anchored safely
Rear Admiral Crowninsheld will prob
