Mayor Joel H. Cutchin, OF Roanoke, to
The Times lspntch, in which he de-
clared that the only disorder at the trial

that created by drunken soldiers.
Colonel George Wayne Anderson, who
was in charge OF the military forces on
tho OCCASION upon seeing tho statement
OF Mayor Cutchin. at once had his nd
jutant direct communication to each
captain who was on duty under him.
asking for an early report as to the con-
dltion of his men while at Roanoke.
At tho Armory last night it was stated
that up to that time no replies had
come in, and that any action taken by
Colonel Anderson with regard to the mat
ter would be based upon tho! reports OF
the captains If any OF them should al
logo In their answers that there was any
drunkenness among their men, rigid and
thorough investigation into the allega-
tons will be sot on foot, according to
military rules. and II any soldiers are
found guilty, they will be promptly pun
ished.
RICHMOND BOYS ALL RIGHT.
When tho reports Of the captains are
all In, 1t Is understood that Colonel An
derson Will ask Mayor Cutchin for spe-
cifications. It Is the general belief hero
that tho Richmond soldiers deported
themselves in$an orderly manner ut Roa-
nolse, nor does any one hero say that
any soldiers elsewhere had imblbed too
freely. Tho report Of tho trip and SER
vice at Roanoke Is now in tho course Of

pending tho settlement OF tho question
of insobriety which has just arisen
