UNREST IN THE ARMY.
Officers Object to Proposed System
of Promotion

Chicago, Dec. 28.-In his annual re-
port Brigadier General William H.
Carter, commander of the department
of the Lakes, speaks of a noticeable
feeling Of unrest among the officers
of the regular army stationed within
his department. The report says:
During the last year my attention
has been frequently attracted by what
may be termed a serious spirit of un-
rest among officers, brought on mainly
by public discussion of proposed
measures for elimination and promo
tiOn by selection. However desirable
may be the measures designed to
bring about the selection of the quail
fed for advancement or the preven-
tion of promotion for those believed
to be unfit for further command the
army Is certainly against their enact
ment. The impression has been
forced upon me that the officers as a
body, particularly of the line, while
recognizing the desirability of provid-
ing promotion for exceptionally meri-
torious men, are unwilling to trust
their careers to boards of officers,
who of necessity must base their con-
clusions upon personal acquaintance
or efficiency reports, which latter are
not regarded as accurate indexes OF
either character or qualification"

HARTJE DIVORCE SUIT
JUDGE SAYS TOO MUCH TALKING
OUT OF COURT.

PITTSBURG, Pa. July 1.-THE wide
prominence given the details OF the Hartje
divorce case was the subject OF further re-
marks by Judge Robert Frazer when the
trial was resumed today. The judge talked
to counsel on the same line as yesterday,
saying that he did not wish to appear as
accusing the attorneys of bad faith, but
that he wished to emphasize his assertion
that there had been too much talking out
of court
The remarks of the judge relieved the
monotony of the testimony, which was en-
tirely by handwriting experts and covered
ground that had already been traversed.
James Dun and James II. Orr, both con-
nected with local banks said that Mrs.
Hartje, in their opinion, did not write the
Susie Wagner letter, as did also j. H.
Nicely. The latter had refreshingly new
definition for the m1ssive, in that he said 1t
was not full of lire," meaning that it was
not a free hand.
