Leavenworth, Kan, March 5.-Today

The new engine is a beauty. 1t is a

Attorney Talks of the Case Against
Lieutenant Burbank.


Leavenworth, March 5.-A prominent
attorney who has had occasion to in
vestigate the charges fled against
Lieutenant Sidney S. Burbank by q
Filipino woman who claims to be his
wife, said today:
Lieutenant Burbank is very unfort-
innate in this matter, inasmuch as
know for a fact that there are dozens
of army officers who served in the is
lands who are being blackmailed by
women over there, and whose names
never have appeared in print. I think
the women are prompted by malicious
parties who are after money. Officers
who have been in the Philippines say
that the natives are very tricky and
that they place absolutely no import
ance on their oath. I know of an in
stance where an officer was court mar
tailed and confronted with sworn af-
fdavits from several natives who tes-
titled as to his whereabouts on a GER
tain day. The officer asked the board
to let him go out under guard and Sc
cure some testimony on his own behalf.
His request was granted and he pre-
pared some most ridiculous aff1davits
and went to the same natives who had
sworn to the first ones and for a small
consideration in each case secured their
signatures to his affidavit. The board
dismissed the charges against him.
las to the Burbank case, must say
think the young man is in an I'M
comfortable position. inasmuch as he is
made the subject for a test case, which
I assure you is being watched most
eagerly by army officers who have
served in the Philippines. He is not
the only young officer who is accused
of having a wife and children in the is
lands. A young officer who recently
married the daughter of an army Off
GER away up rank was accused in the
same way, but there was enough pull
brought to bear to hush the thing up
Burbank can prove by the army rec
ords that he was four days march
away in the mountains when the al
legged marriage took place. The parties
who are representing the officer fee
very confident and are willing to try
the case on it's merits. The attorney
for the woman evidently doesn't want
the case tried here. He claims lack Of
