THE SAMAR CAMPAIGN AGAIN

Manila, Dec. 3.-Orders have been
received from Washington directing
that Major Edward f. Glenn, of the
Fifth Infantry shall be put on trial
a second time for alleged cruelty com
mitted during the Samar campaign.
Major Glenn is charged with having or
dered the execution of several native
guides for misleading the American
column sent against the enemy's
stronghold.
Major Glenn himself reported the In
cident. which has been the subject of
an extensive inquiry for several
months past Major General Chaffee
ordered two Investigations to be made
by Inspector General Colmore and
Major Watts, vino made inquiries.
General Chaffee forwarded their re-
ports to Secretary Root before he re-
linquished his command. and without
making any recommendation Secre-
tary Root now orders General Davis
to formulate charges against Major
Glenn and convene a court martial.
Major Glenn is now commanding a
post at Bayambang, district Of Pan
eastman Luzon, and he was yesterday
ordered to hold himself in readiness
to appear here for trial 1t is expected
that the trial will reopen the entire
question of the Samar campaign and
consume some time. It is said that
Major Glenn will inform the court that
he desires Major General Chaffee and
Brigadier General Jacob Smith to be
called as witnesses. but 1t is possible
that their dispositions will be taken
instead.
Major Glenn was tried by court mar
tial at Manila last May for administer
ing the "water cure" to natives dur
ing the Samar campaign. and was
found guilty and sentenced to one
months suspension of duty and fine
Of $50. President Roosevelt approved
the findings of the court. Major Glenn
