IN msrstime interests. He invariably
addresses the house from a judicial
standpoint, weighing the arguments

partiality of an upright Judge. He
lays no claim to elOquence and makes
Ho snowy spurts, but pursues the even
tenor of his way, relying upon undis-
puted facts clearly presented to insure
conviction and gain his point"

GEN. MILES MUST GO
Now an Open Secret That He Will
Soon Be Retired From
Active Service.

Washington. April 1.-THE issues are
fairly joined between the lieutenant
general and the secretary of war. The
troubles which began long ago, under
the Cleveland administration, have
finally reached so critical state that 4
compulsory retirement OF Gen. Miles at
at early date is an open secret and is not
denied at the White House. In expla-
nation of President Roosevelt's position
one of his close friends, who unquestion-
ably speaks by authority, said:
THE question is not personal one
between Gen. Miles and secretary Root.
At present Secretary Root has on his
shoulders heavier burden than any
other member of the administration.
No man less strong could carry it at all ;
and now, at the very time when he re-
quires the most loyal support of every
subordinate who wishes we'll to the army
and the nation, he has to spend much of
his strength is meeting the opposition OF
the commanding general. IfGen. Miles
is retired it will be simply because, after
a patient trial, President Roosevelt feels
that on the highest ethical grounds his
retention would work grave and lasting
injury to the army as a whole.
