President Roosevelt's action in dismiss

rotary of War Taft in his annual report.
The report, after pointing out that the
Presidents order has been severely eriti-
eised because it condemns the innocent to
undeserved punishment, thus reviews the
incident
.Out of a battalion of 10 enlisted men
in the army of the United States. from
nine to twenty men formed a preconcert-
ed plan to revenge themselves upon the
people of town in which they were sta
toned for the insults they felt that the
townspeople had heaped upon them. In
accordance with the plan. they left the
barracks under cover of darkness--about
Northumberland proceeded to discharge
their weapons into the houses of the
town for the purpose of killing those
against whom they felt a grievance
.Tbey came near killing some one or
more of the three women and seven chill
dren who were sitting or sleeping in two
of the lighted rooms into which they fired.
They. in fact. did kill one man, wound
another and seriously injure the chief of
police. They accompanied their firing
with expressions indicating the malice
which prompted their action. There can
be no doubt, therefore, that the squad OF
men who moved together from the fort to
the town and did this shooting were

the street at a run.
The fact was. Mr.. Villiers had come to
the conclusion that as his wife would not
give him money willingly, the best thing
to be done would be to take it by force,
and accordingly he had made up his mind
to rob her of the nugget that night If pos

The afternoon wore drowsily along. and
the great heat made everybody inclined
to sleep. Pierre had demanded by signs
to be shown his bedroom, and having been
conducted thereto By a crushed-lookins
waiter. who drifted aimlessly before him,
threw himself on the bed and went fast
asleep.
Even Martha. the wide-awake, was
yielding to the somniferous heat OF the
day. when a young man entered the bar
and made her sit up with great alacrity.
This was none other than NJ. Vande-
Ioup. who had come down to see Pierre.
Dressed in fiannels, with blue scarf ued
carelessly round his waist, blue necktie
knotted loosely round his throat under
the collar of his shirt, and wearing a
straw hat on his fair head, he looked
wonderfully cool and handsome, and rs
