FISH HATCHERY BILL
Killed by the Speaker-R. RS Want
to Consolidate Their Grants.

From The Journal Bureau, Room Is, Post Build
ing, Washington.
Washington, Dec 19.-The house COM
mittee on public lands has ordered a IA
vorable report on the bill authorizing the
land grant roads to exchange odd num-
bered sections within the limits of this
grants in arid Or ser1i-arid regions for
even numbered sections. The object Of
the bill is to allow the railroad companies
or their granters to consolidate their
holdings and make them compact. It will
affect lands in the senli-arid regions of
the Dakotas within the limits Of the North
ern Pacific grant. 1t is opposed by some
western congressman the ground that
it will will enable the purchasers of
these lands from the companies to acquire
large tracts and fence them to the ex-
clusion Of bonaf1de settlers.
The committee postponed the action
on the bill to repeal the timber and stone
act until after the holidays.
Speaker Henderson has refused to ale
low time for the consideration of the
omnibus bill for fish hatcheries in vari-
Gus states. The bill was reported at tho
last session and is now on the calendar.
One provision in it is for the establish
ment of a hatchery in Minnesota at a
place to be selected by Fish Commissioner
Bowers either in McCleary's or Heatwole's
district. The speakers action kills tia
bill.

C0uTtmaTtiaI Inquiry Into Samar
Story Condemned.

Manila, May 26.-The official findings
of the court martial which tried Major l..
w. T. Waller and Lieutenant John III. A.
Day OF the Marine Corps. for executing
natives OF the Island OF Samar without
trial, have been made public. The re-
viewing authority OF the court has ex-
pressed its disapproval of the courts find
ings in both cases.
REVIEWING BOARD SPEAKS.
Referring to the case of Major Waller
the reviewing authority says:
'The sending OF the natives in question
TO their death partook more of unlawful
retaliation than justifable act of war.
In justice TO the American military SER
vice, the findings of acquittal demand that
they shall not meet with unqualified APP

THE marines In Samar underwent great
suffering before their rescue and their
officers from their sick beds voiced the
revengeful anger of the men who tele

stevedores be killed. Major Waller re-
ceived this MESA 20 while he was sick.

pain of body due to exposure, and his
exertions in behal of his men and mental
anguish concerning their fate, which had
long been In doubt.
Major Waller was at the time in tele-
phonic communication with General
Smith. who commanded the American
forces I'm Samar, but he deliberately chose
not 20 consult General Smith regarding
his contemplated action, and rather than
forego the execution of his uurestrained

Giving heed TO the mental attitude of
Major Waller al much of the findings OF
the court as are TO the effect that Major
Waller is not guilty of murder. are APP
proved. But the reviewing authority Is
at a loss to understand why the court
did not find against Major Waller in the
minor offence With the exception noted,
the acquittal, as II appears in the records
of the proceedings is disapproved.
CASE OF LIEUTENANT DAY.
Referring to the case of Lieutenant Day,
the reviewing authority says:
THE accused knew that for three weeks
Major Waller had undergone a test OF
his mental and physical endurance such
as few men are called upon TO sun@r.
While fully conceding the grave respon-
sibility assumed by n subordinate officer

Day was acquainted so tainted Major

should have been prompted TO positive
disobedience.
"An officer must be conscientiously re-
gardful OF the unquestioned legality Of
his agency In taking the lives OF his
fellow men. Above and beyond all per-
sonal considerations. officers must guard
the name and honor of the country.
Had Lieutenant Day been actuated by
such consideration he would probably
have prevented one of the most regret
