FEDERAL POLICE
TO GUARD ROSSLYN
Soldiers From Fort Myer to
Be Withdrawn.
OPPOSED TO MARTIAL LAW
Advocate General Advises Root That
Military Patrol Is Undesirable
in Times of Peace.

The military guard from Fort Myer
which has been patrolling Rosslyn since
the decision that that town is a part OF
the Governments military reservation
is to be withdrawn. In its stead the
Secretary of War will direct that civil
ian officers. designated. perhaps. as Fed
eral policemen. will be appointed to pre-
serve the peace and protect lives and
property within the limits of the town.
This action will be taken upon rec
ommendation of Judge Advocate General
Davis, of the army, to whom Secretary
Root referred the matter of establishing
a force to patrol the town.
General Davis holds that IL is not
well. in time OF peace and within the
shadow OF the dome Of the National
Capitol. to exercise military authority
over a civilian community. and as the
authorities at Fort Myer are response
bic for the preservation of the peace
and the protection of citizens and their
property. 1t has been deemed advisable
to recommend the establishment OF a
civil guard.
General Davis has forwarded his
opinion and recommendation to Secre-
tary Root, who Will doubtless approve
them, whereupon orders will be issued
for the withdrawal OF the guard and
the appointment Of police officers.

BRITISH MINISTER
WILL LEAVE SERYIA
LanSdowne VIII Not Recognize
Temporary Government.

LONDON. June 20.-In the house OF
lords yesterday Foreign Minister Lord
Lansdowne announced that the British
minister to Servia had been instructed
to withdraw from Belgrade for some time
on the arrival there OF King Peter. and
In the meanwhile to do nothing which
could be construed as a recognition of ths
new government
Lord Lansdowne expressed indigna-
ton at the crimes at Belgrade. and said
he thought it was not desirable that Sir
George Bonham. the British minister,
should be In that city when the new
regime was inaugurated
The foreign minister added that no
proposal had been received for concerted
action toward Servia by the powers. but
the British government had no intsn-
ton Of maintaining ordinary relations
with the persons concerned in The massa-
cres.
The government yielded to none in It's
adherence Of the events which had late.
ly disgraced the capital OF Servla, and
that adherence had not been diminished
by later intelligence which had reached
the foreign Office. II would be no exag-
geration to say that 1t would be hard TO
find a parallel for the outrages. even IN
the annals OF states which made no pre-
tense to be included among the civilized
communities.
The government had ascertained that
France. Germany. and Italy were main
tanning An attitude toward Servia similar
! - "a
and Austria were prepared 10 recognize
the new regime. although Russia ap-
peared to have asked that proper punish
ment should be inflicted.

UNCLE SAM PAYS BILL

Texan Deputy Marshal After

BROUGHT BOY AS PRISONER
District Attorney as Additional Guard
and Incidentally to Push His Friends
Claim to Dallas Postoffice.

The presence in Washington OF D. A.
Robinson, deputy marshal at Dallas.
Tex. and a prominent candidate for
the position of postmaster OF that place,
culiar condition of affairs. associated
directly and indirectly with that can
diducy II the story be true-and II is
from good authority-the United States
Government is paying the expenses of
Mr. Robinson while he Is here further
ms his own interests and spending the
greater part of his time in obtaining
influential backing in his race for the
postmastership.
An Ingenious Scheme.
The scheme by which Uncle Sam has
been prevailed upon TO pay railroad
fares and hotel bills is ingenious. II
appears that Robinson came to Wash
ingtOn in charge OF a diminutive
eleven year-old boy. who was sentenced
by a Dallas judge to a term in the
United States Reform School at Wash
ington. Being in charge OF this Dan
gerous youth. his expenses to and from
Washington are paid by Uncle Sam. and
also a portion OF his expenses while
here.
II is understood that the Hon. w II.
Atwell. United States district attorney
for the Northern district OF Texas, is
also IN Washington, using all his In
fiuence in obtaining the appointment OF
his friend Robinson as postmaster at
Dallas.
District Attorney as Guard.
This would be all right were it not
for the alleged fact that the Hon.
" II. Atwell came to Washington
| as an assistant guard for this same
diminutive eleven-year- boy. whose
petty misdemeanor has caused him to be
sent to the Government reform school.
Thus the United States Government
seems to be paying the expenses OF
these two robust Texans. who are spend

a Government position
