OF DISMISSING
NEGROES
Washington Telegram Says
Secretary of War Ordered
II Continued.
MAJOR CLARK DENIES RE
CEylNC ANY TELEGRAM

Washington, Nov 2i--The war de-
partment has issued the following
statement today. concerning the negro
troops dismissed at Fort Reno:
In course OF the order discharg-
ing the enlisted men Of three COM
panies of the 25th infantry, issued by
the president, application was pre-
sented to the secretary of war by a
number of persons of standing asking
for a rehearing by the president. The
secretary telegraphed the president of
the applications and delayed the pro-
ceedings of discharge until the presi-
dent could indicate his wishes. The
secretary in the meantime was called
out of town. No answer having been
received from the president, the sec
retary on his return did not feel justi-
fed in further delaying the execution
of the order of discharge, especially IL
view OF the fact that the secretary
then learned the president had fully
and exhaustiyely considered the argu-
ment against the order by the persons
who now applied for Te-hearing. Ac-
cordingly the secretary yesterday
Tuesday wired that the proceedings
for the discharge be continued with
out further delay.

TO REPORT ON new
PROPOSED AUTO LINE
Nee ANNA WILL TAKE UP A. NJ.
STockARD'S PROPOSAL IN
DETAIL.

An automobile road from Alhuquer-
que to Torrance, the probable cost of
which win be about $4,000, is under
consideration by the Commercial club
directors, who have advised Secretary
McCanna, of the club, to take up the
matter further with A. NJ. Stockard,
president and manager of the Roswell
Automobile company, which has been
successfully running touring cars be-
tween Torrance and Roswell for more
than year past.
The proposal was submitted 10 the
Commercial club last night by MI.
Stockard. who stated that the auto
mobile line as it is established at pres'
eut has proven to be a paying invest
ment as well as a great convenience
to travellers. The line. which has a
contract for carrying United States
mail, Is wen patronized by passen-
gers. II has reduced the distance
time between Roswell and Santa Fe
twentyfour hours
Mr.. Stockard believes that the es-
tablishment of a road between Albu-
querque and Torrance and its proper
maintenance for fast automobile
travel would be of much benefit TO
the Duke City, since It would make
II easily accessible over roads which
are now practically impassable for
heavy traffic.
Mr. McCaLna has been directed "a
obtain further details about the pro
posed road and report TO the Com
mercial club directors Tho report
VIII probably be presented al the
next meeting of the club.
