CUBAN INTERFERENCE COSTLY
Army Appropriation Bill Shows De
cided Increase.
House Military Committee Recon-
mends Dropping Grade of Lieu
tenant General in 1909.

Chairman Hull, Of the House Committee
on Military Affairs, reported the army ap-
preparation bill yesterday. The measure
carries an expenditure of approximately
$73,000.000, q decrease in the estimates Of
the War Department Of about 3, 80, ,O0O
and a little more than 100000 in excess
Of the appropriation for the current fiscal
year.
A portion of this increase is due to
American intervention in Cuba. The COM
mittee estimates that the cost Of inter
yention up TO the end Of the present fiscal
year will be about $54aa9O0. 1t is now
costing the United States $4,000 a month
to maintain its army in Cuba. The first
cost Of Intervention, however. was much
larger than this. by reason Of transporta-
ton. The present cost is attributed to
the transportation Of supplies and the
increase Of 20 per cent in the pay of
enlisted men and 10 per cent TO officers
for serving in "a foreign country, as pro-
vided by law.
The bill contains a provision for the
adjustment Of the Office of lieutenant
general. now held by Gen. Macarthur.
when that officer retres in 1909. The bill
carries half a million dollars to meet the
extra expense Of the Cuban army of
paCification. The bill viii be considered
by the House to-day.

SUBSIDY VOTE POSTPONED.
Fate of the Measure Seems Sealed
for This Session.

Tor This Session.
The House Committee on Merchant
Marine and Fisheries has again post
poned a vote upon the question of report
ing the ship subsidy bin, fixing next
Tuesday as the date. Messrs. Wachter,
of Maryland; Flack. of New York, and
Fordney, of Michigan (Repuplicans), and
Spight of Mississippi, and McDermott.
Of New Jersey DemocTats), were absent
from the meeting yesterday.
What will be done at that time?f was
asked of a member of the committee.
Say he replied. Did you ever hear
the story of the imperturbable debtor
and persistent collector? No? Well, this
debtor had long put off paying a bill.
for which the collector had repeatedly
dunned him. Finally the debtor said 20
the collector:
You've been coming here frequently
long time, and have had nothing for
your pains. Now. I'll tell you what: You
come next Thursday, and II tell you then
when to call again 8"
The compromise on the Senate bill
seems now wholly impossible Messrs.
Flack and McDeTmott, both friends of he
bill. are away from Washington OF ac-
count of sickness; Mr.. Wachter is a candi-
date for mayor of Baltimore, and IS thick
in that fight, while Mr.. Fordney who
stands a good chance of coming 10 the
Senate from Michigan, does not want u
leave the contest at Lansing: hence the
friends Of subsidy are sorely distressed.
But Chairman Grosvenor decided 10 send
urgent notices to all members OF the COM
mittee TO be on hand one week from to-
morrow to decide the matter one way or
another

The Washington herald., 1907-01-08

The question of law is whether the
President, in Cismissing these companies
without honor. exceeded his powers under
the law and the Constitution. This ques-
tion can be settled by the Senate just as
well now, and. ] thing, better, than at
any other time without the least regard
for the committee's decision as to the
question of fact II is purely a question
Of law, and / think it ought to be de-
tached from the question of fact ad set
tied at once. The Constitution makes the
President Commander in chief of the
army and navy Of the United States. and
Congress is given authority To make
rules for the government and regulation
Of the land and naval forces. In the
fifth amendment Of the Constitution, the
land and naval forces are exempted from
the lights guaranteed to all persons who
are held to answer for a capital or 9TH
erwise Infamous crime. 1t appears, there
fore. that soldiers and sailors were recog-
nized as being subject to a law different
from that administered in the civil courts
In making the President Commander in
Chief the Constitution conferred upon him
all the powers and authority ordinarily
exercised by the Commander in Chief un-
der the military law of the times.
That military law has been slowly
forming through many centuries. Broad
ly speaking, the power OF the commander
in-ehief was originally absolute, and wars
were conducted under ordinances or rules
laid down by the King himself. The King
or cOmander-in-chief could punish or dis
miss from the service, without any re-
striction except such as he himself chose
to establish. Modern rules and articles
of war may be said TO date from those
established by Gustavus Adolphus, and
among English-speaking people from
Prince Rupert's code, as it was called,

HITCHCOCK HAS FLED.
Opera Star Indicted for Criminal AS
sault Leaves New York.

New York, Nov. 1.-The police are
almost positive that Raymond Hitch
cock, with an 11-year-old girl, Belle
Mckenzie, are aboard the Majestic
fleeing 10 London. -e
A prominent New Yorker has in
formed the police that he saw Hitch
cock board the steamer Wednesday,
and a wireless from the Majestic
gives an accurate description Of a
man supposed to be Hitchcock.
The captain of the boat was order
ed to arrest and hold this suspect un-
til the boat reached South Hampton,
and police understand he is with the
Mckenzie girl. Hitchcock met her in
September, 1906.
Henry w. Savage does not believe
that Hitchcock will ever return to the
stage, and says. he thinks a power
full influence has Hitchcock under
control.
Hitchcock has been in trouble in
New York for the past several weeks
In connection with charges preferred
a. .5inst him by several small girls.
The grand jury returned six indict-
ments against him Wednesday fol-
criminal assault on three little girls
whose testimony was taken before the
grand jury. Hitchcock is a comic
opera star of considerable note and
was made famous by his stellar part
in the comic opera, king Dodo."
