Taking up Colonel Mays contention
that the wording of the order: 'CoI.
Henry May. Lieut.. Col. Burton Ross.
and Chaplain Myer will be honorably
discharged. was an admission by Gen
eral Harries that Colonel May was still
colonel of the First Regiment, General
Harries pointed to the clause which
specifies that the commanding officer of
regiment may be discharged from the
service when his regiment is disbanded.
1T is not necessary to issue an execu-
tive order dismissing Colonel May" the
general declared, for how can he be
colonel of the First Regiment when
there is no such regimei-+E
When the question of reorganizing the
First Regiment was broached General
HarrIes said tnat plans were-not yet
matured. IT is understood, however,
that the reorganization will be effected
promptly and that Major Charles H.

nissioned colonel 1t is also stated that
Lieut. Col. Burton Ross will be well

Exclude Evidence.
TESTIMONY Is ADMITTED

The greater part of the session this
morning of the trial Of Thomas M.
Fields. the lawyer indicted for the en-
bezz1ement of almost $4,000 from the
Washington Beneficial Endowment AS
sociation, for which he and Andrew A.
Lipscomb were receivers. was taken up
with the Governments witnesses
They were on the stand to prove
the association referred to was a bona
fide corporation and incorporated under
the laws OF the District of Columbia
To ForestaII Defense.
This line Of evidence, 1t is thought,
was introduced to avoid the possibility
of the defense setting up a technical
defense on the line that the corpora
tfon of the association was not proved.
The attendance upon the trial was as
large as yesterday and included some
prominent local attorneys. Fields, the
defendant at the bar. took an active
part in the handling Of his case and
made many suggestions to his counsel,
Attorneys Philip Walker and Baker.
It is now thought the case will go
to the jury tomorrow evening.
Teller Seybold Called.
w. II. seybold, paying teller at the
Second National Bank, was the first
witness put on the stand TO-DAY. He
identified two checks deposited at his
bank by the defendant, and said he
placed them to Fields credit.
John F. King, a bookkeeper OF the
Second National Bank, was called, with
the statement by the Government that
it wished to prove by him that Fields
had deposited in his presence $4,000 at
the Second National Bank. Witness
