WOULDN'T THANK MILES.
Neither President Nor Secretary of War
Favorably Commented the Retire.
ment of the Veteran Commander.

Washington, Aug. 9.-The retirement
fCen. Miles was announced in the same
perfunctory manner that the retire
be promulgated. Under the circum-
stances the failure of the president or
secretary of war to comment on Gen.
Miles retirement must inevitably pro-
woke widespread comment. The whole
subject was thoroughly discussed by
the president and Secretary Root
weeks ago and in army circles the Cos
sips have freely predicted that no COM
plimentary paragraphs would creep
into the army orders pertaining to the
retirement.
While the distinguished services of
Gen. Miles in the great war of the re-
bellion and subsequently in affairs
against hostile Indians were given due
consideration and both the president
and Secretary Root place high esti-
mate upon them, it was felt that, in
view of the relations that have existed
between the lieutenant general and the
commander-in-chief and secretary Of
war covering the period since the dec
laration of war against Spain, the exec
utive could not consistently publish to
the army an order complimentary to
the retiring lieutenant general. There
fore, after careful elaboration it was
decided to adhere to the rigid rule Of
the service. and issue the usual order
promulgated upon the retirement OF
officers for age of whatever rank.

last Tuesday from Montreal to Rev.
George H Spencer, the pastor of his
church in East Boston, Willard 8. Al
len, treasurer of the Preachers Aid
society, of the New England confer
snce Of the Methodist Episcopal
church, confessed that he was a de-
taulter to the amount of more than
900 of the society's funds
Mr.. Allen has been treasurer OF the
society for II years and clerk of the
East Boston district court for % years,
and for 16 years was a prominent
member of the school committee OF
Boston. He left home about a week
ago without announcing his destina-
ton and the first heard from him was
the letter to the East Boston clergy
man. MIR. Allen said that he had lost
the money in speculation. He requests
the minister to notify the members of
the Allen family and the officers OF
the society of his confession.
Mr.. Allen for more than 40 years
has been prominent in the legal circles
and social life of East Boston. He is
81 years old. twenty-five years ago
he Joined the corporation known as the
Preachers Aid society and in 1891 was
elected treasurer of the organization,
It was not until year ago that
suitable bond as treasurer was advo-
Gated by some members of the society,
as an ordinary business measure, and
vote passed last May required that
bond be given. Mr.. Allen promised
to give the matter his immediate at
tention and to see that all bonds Of
the society were officially recorded.
Until the receipt of Mr.. Aliens confess
sion it was supposed that this had
been done.

DURBIN COMMENDED.
President Roosevelt Writes Letter to
Indiana Governor on Lynching.
He Severely Condemns Mob Law, But De-
elares Swift Punishment Must Be
Dealt to Those Guilty of
Heinous Crimes.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 10.-In a
long letter, the publication of which
was authorized yesterday, President
Roosevelt commends Gov. Durbin, of
Indiana, for the attitude he assumed
recently respecting lynching. The
president also embraces the opportu-
nifty to express his own views in refer
ence to lynching and mob violence
generally, saying mob violence is
one form of anarchy and that
anarchy is a forerunner of tyranny.
The president vigorously urges that
the penalty for crimes that induce a
resort to lynching shall be applied
swiftly and surely, but by due process
Of the courts, so that it may be
deemed strictly that the law is ade-
quate to deal with crime by freeing it
from every vestige of technicality and
delay. The president says:
men who have been guilty of a
crime like rape or murder should be
visited with swift and certain punish
ment and the just effort made by the
courts to protect them in their rights
should under no circumstances be
perverted into permitting any mere
tech nicality to avert or delay their
punishment. The substantial rights of
the prisoner to a fair trial must of
course be guaranteed, as you have so
justly insisted that they should be
made subject to this guarantee, the
law must work swiftly and surely and
all the agents of the law should real
ize the wrong they do when they per-
nit justice to be delayed or thwarted
for technical or insufficient reasons.
We must show that the law is ade-
Guate to deal with crime by freeing it
from every vestige of technicality and
delay"
