ACCORDING TO STATEMENT is.
SUED CONCERNING DISCHARGE
OF NEGRO SOLDIERS
PRESIDENT ORDERS 1T
Persons Now Applying for Reopenins
Of Case Are Fully and Exhaustively
Heard by Roosevelt-secretary De.
lays Executing the Order.

Washington, Nov 21.-The war de-
partment issued the following state
ment today concerning the negro
troops ordered dismissed at Fort
Reno:
In the matter OF the order discharg-
ing the enlisted men of three COM
panies Of the Twenty-fifth infantry
issued by the President, application
was presented to the secretary Of war
by number Of persons of standing
asking for a rehearing by the Presi-
dent on the ground on which the ac-
ton was taken. The secretary tele-
graphed the President of the applica-
ton and delayed the proceedings os
the discharge until the President
could indicate his wishes. The secre-
tary was meantime called out of town.
No answer was received from the
President. The secretary on his re-
turn did not feel justified in further
delaying the execution of the order
OF discharge, especially in view Of the
fact that the secretary had then learn
ed that the President had fully and
exhaustively considered the argument
against order Of persons who now ap-
piled for rehearing. Accordingly
the secretary directed yesterday that
the proceedings for discharge be con-
tinued without delay.
Later in the day Taft received a
dispatch from the President and is
sued the following additional state
ment: Telegram was received from
the President today in which he de.
clines to suspend the discharge unless.
there are new facts of such impor-
tance as to warrant cabling him. He
states that the action was taken after
due deliberation and that the only
matter to which he can pay heed Is
the presentation Of facts showing the
official report to be in whole or in part
untrue Of clearly exculpating some
individuals.
If any such facts later appear he
can act as he deems advisable, but
thus far nothing has been introduced
to warrant the suspension of the order
and he directs it to be executed"
{ Taft says immediate steps will be
taken to recruit colored soldiers to
replace the men discharged.
