CRUELTY IN THE GERMAN ARMY
Seven-Year Sentence Passed on
Soldier who strikes an
Omcer.

BERLIN, March 1O-(Special Cablegram
to The Bee.)-Many cases of cruelty in the
German army are being reported, an cpl
demic of that sort of thing attracting as
much attention as series of similar Incl
dents several years. ago.
One OF the most notorious OF the events
OF recent date is that OF a soldier named
Glory. who has just been sentenced by
court-martiaf at Lubbock 10 seven years and
nine months Imprisonment for knocking
down his oficer, Lieutenant Heerlein, in
the barrack yard with the butt of his
musket. wounding him severely No at
tempt is made to extenuate Glory's act. but
the terrible severity OF his punishment has
again drawn attention to the disparity be-
tween the sentences passed on soldiers for
insubOrdination and those passed on officers
and sergeants for maltreating common sol
diers.
on the day when Glory struck Lieutenant
Heerlein he had been driven to desperation
by the cruelty of his sergeant, who had
struck him and imposed half an hours knee
drill on him. After the torture of the knee
drill was over Heerlein took Glory's cor
poraTs command at the parade step and
as Glory was already quite exhausted he
was unable to satisfy his officer. Heerlein,
as a punishment, ordered him to run around
the barrack yard. In fit of passion Glory,
instead OF obeying, turned and knocked
Heerlein down. The sergeant himself was
found to have been guilty of cruelty and
was sentenced TO thrty-eight days con-
finement TO the barracks.

apparent that H. Campbell Bannerman and
the liberals will have their hands full Il
they attempt to deal with one-half Of the
reforms which have been proposed and
which will be agitatod in the new Parlia-
ment.
The latest question which has been
raised Is one of the most perplexing ever
raised in the history of the country or
party. For while most Of the reforms
proposed are political and economic, this
would appear to be nothing more or less
than social
The question has been raised. why
should peeresses enjoy privileges which are
not extended to the wives OF members Of
the House of Commons?'
This is the question which women who
have suffered from the discomforts Of
the ladies gallery" in the lower house,
commonly known as the hen COOP" are
still asking. For years members wives
have protested against being Gagged in
like geological specimens by heavy grille
which, makes 1t impossible for any but
the fortunate few in the front row to hear
or see anything which is going on in the
house.

comfort and it is argued Jiat not one
good reason can be urged for the reten-
ton OF the grille i'm the lower house. It is
certain that the wives OF the new labor
leaders will add their voices to the gem
eral protest
Mrs. Kier Hardle, when interview, ex-
plained that although she had never been
in the women's gallery she had heard
enough about it from friends to induce her
to keep away.

of women visitors" she said IL am told
that the gallery is very hot and uncom-
Portable. The grille should certainly be

Mr.. Hardie, who happened to be with his
wife at the time that she was interviewed,
explained that with very few exceptions
the members OF the labor party in the

having things changed that the wives

CHARGES AGAINST A GOVERNOR
Herr Won Puttkamer Accused Of
Cruelty, Oppression and other
Crimes in CamerOOns.

BERLIN. March 1O-(special Cablegram
to The Bee.l-Charges against Herr Won
Puttkamer governor of the Cameroons,
are developing into scandals Of national
character
II is only a few days ago that he ar
rived home to answer charges of arbitrary
treatment of The native Duala chiefs. But
Il begins to appear as though this was only
one item in n long line Of misdeeds. When
one Of the chieftains named Alkva left the
Cameroons for Germany some time ago
to lodge a complaint against the governor
the German police were teegraphed to
and asked to arrest him and send him
back to the Cameroons. Herr Won Putt
kamer probably fearing the revelations
which Akva was in a position to make.
1t seems though the police in Altoona
and Hamburg actually invaded Akva's pri-
vate lodgings and took away various
papers. Akva escaped to Berlin, where he
succeeded in interesting various members
OF the ReichstaE in his favor. and It is
said to be owing to the exertions of these
deputies that Herr Won Puttkamer's ex-
trsordinary conduct has come to light.
II r. also charged against him that he
prohibited the natives from trading in
percussion caps Several chiefs disobeyed
Won Puttkamer indicted was the prohibi-
ton of all native trading in Edaea, the
principal market place CT the colony. Mat
ters looked worse when it became known
that the governor gave the well known
African trading firm of woermann a mo-
nopoly OF the trade In percussion caps and
afterwards the exclusive right Of trading
in Edaea.
Then, too, it appears that there are scan
dals of another character 1t seems that
there is woman living in the Cameroons
under Herr Won Puttkamer's protection
whom the governor calls Baroness Won
Eckhardstlen." The governor ordered one
of his officials to fill up a pass for this
person. whose name is said to be Marie

traffic on his system had been carried at
less than published rates Mr.. Ingalls, said:
