Washington, April 30.-The officials
and army officers at the war depart
ment are puzzled over the unprece-
denied action of Gen. Miles in includ-
ing a mass Of hearsay complaints
against the army in the Philippines In
an official report Of an inspection tour.
No such official report was ever before
received from an American army Of
fcer.
.If Gen. Grant had made tour OF
inspection in Georgia otter the civil
war" said one army officer OF high
rank, "and lad gathered up all the
complaints of the rebels against Gen.
Sherman, it would have been similar
to this act of Ce-4. Miles.
There is nol a case mentioned by
Gen. Miles that has not been investl-
gated and acted upon. There have
been 10000 American soldiers in the
Philippines and not less than 5000 Of
ficers. Some Of these officers have
been old regulars, some young men
who had recently been commissioned
in the regular army and some volun-
teers. There have not been to ex-
coed "a dozen serious charges made
against these officers, and when you
consider that there were 5000 OF
them, it is not serious indictment OF
the army
Gen. Miles, officers say, was in the
Philippines four weeks, and did not
investigate single case of outrage,
but he reported what he had heard
against the soldiers, and at the same
time some of the best inspection Of
ficers in the army were making a
painstakins investigation of these
complaints.
