Washington, April l6.--The friends of
Col. William f. Stewart of the coast
artillery, who, on oct 8 last was or
dered to the solitudes of abandoned
Fort Grant Ariz,, have so far succeed
ed in their campaign for his relief that
prediction is made in authoritative
quarters that Col. Stewart will be per-
mitted to choose a place of residence
at one of the Atlantic coast artillery
posts II is predicted the colonel will
not be restored 10 command
A PECULIAR CASE.
The case of this officer is regarded
as one Of the most peculiar in the an
mails of the war department. The cor
respondence which is available shows
that an official communication from the
war department was addressed TO him
at his post, Fort Barancas, Fla. last
September, which read:
Pursuant to instructions from the
president. the department is prepared
TO issue an order assigning you to sta
ton, probably Fort Grant, Ariz., with
out command. The president has de-
cided, however, that before this order
is issued an opportunity be given you
to apply for immediate retirement
Col. Stewards reply was
"If appointed brigadier general will
retire. If not, will remain on duty"
He at the same time requested two
months leave of absence to arrange his
personal affairs and settle his family
in case his Punishment for Fort Grant
should be ordered.
He was refused this request. He then
demanded to know what charges had
been made against him and requested
that he be given an opportunity to an
swer them
PRESIDENTS ACTION.
In answer Col Stewart was inform
ed that 'the action of the president
that determined your present status
WAS based upon a report submitted
and acted upon by the president,
which contained the distinct recon-
mendation that you be retained at
Fort Grant until you reach the min
imum age (62) permitting of your
compulsory retirement by the prcsi-
dent, unless In the meantime your app
plication to be retired after 40 years
service should be received; then, Of
course, YOU would be ordered to your
home cn retirement"
When information is sought as to
just what may be the basis of such
forthcoming as to Col. Stewart as an
artillery commander is that he is
temperamentally impossible"
Fort Grant where the colonel is
now on duty" is an abandoned fort
in the wilds of Arizona. The colonel's
command consists of a solitary care
taker and a cook. That his present
status is now considered to smack too
much of exile" is believed TO be the
reason FOR relenting of the official
mind Should the present plans be
carried out, this officer will be permit
ted to fulfill time on the active list
as a resident without duty, at some
coast artillery post.

Flood Waters from Hauser Lake
Dam Passing Point Without In
fIicting Much Damage.
NO INJURY TO THE SHELTER
Work OF Repairing the Dam Has Al
ready Representation At
Craig is Serious.

Helena. April ia special to the
Record from Great Falls says that the
flood waters from Hauser Lake dam
have reached and are passing that
point without ipficting any great dam
age. the dynamite deepened channel
of the river having proved of suffi-
Client size to carry the flow quite sat
lsfactorily. The water rose 20 a
height no greater than during the GUS
tomary spring floods This IS ac-
counted for by the fact that the low
living lands between Cascade and
Great Falls have served as reservoirs
and thus leSsened the danger in that
city. General Manage Goodalle of
the Boston & Montana company is au-
thoritY for the statement that the
large smelling plant will suffer alb
soluely no injury as a result of the
tood.
SITUATION AT CRAIG.
The situation at Craig is one OF great
seriousness. The debaele has result
ed in the practical destruction of the
town and its 100 or more inhabitants
have formed a temporary refuge on
one of the hillsides. The women and
children have been furnished ade-
quatc accommodations in abandoned

with the exception OF the school
house. practically every building IN
the town has been destroyed or
so clogged with debris that it can

ruined. One small residence has clog
ged the entrance to the Great North
ern tunnel below the town. The rail-
road is torn up for stretches of several
miles in length. II is impossible to
estimate the loss to ranchmen, many
of whose herds and buildings. hay
stacks and the like We're washed away.
REPAIRING THE DAM,
Already the work of repairing the
darn has begun. Material and debris
formed an impromptu dam a short
distance below Hauser lake site, and
this will be forced out, so that sur
veys may be made of the injured
structure. General Manager Gerry
estimates that the structure can be
repaired in six months at cost of
100000. The machinery in the
power house is covered with silt, but
II is believed TO have sustained no
other INJURY. II is being cleaned and
put into shape.

condemned the traction company for
attempting to resume service without
his permission. The mayor then called
the city council to consider the situa-
ton.

President Rigg of the Chester Trac-
tion company requested Mayor Johnson
to ask that a detail of 100 state po-
licemen be sent here. Mayor johnson
refused because he said he feared the
presence of the state police might cause
another outbreak. Thereupon Mr., Rigg
telephoned TO Gov Stuart at Harris
burg and requested that a regiment of
the state national guard be ordered
out.
President Rigg said later that no fur

HAD FUN STICKING
PINS IN HIMSELF

SEATTLE (Wash.), August H.
When physician from the Health De
partment went to South Seattle today
to examine Harold Springer, 16 wears
old, for symptoms of leprosy, ne found
that yonngster in the midst of group
of boys and girls industriously sticking
pins into his face. The others were
gazing at him with admiring awe and
Springer was smiling and apparently
enjoying himself as much as anyone
The boy had been making a practice OF
entertaining his friends by thrustinp
pins and darning needles through his
cheeks and into his body, apparently
without the slightest pain.
A woman who learned of his peculiar
faculty and who had been reading an
account of the Molokai leper settlement
Immediately jumped to the conclusion
that he was leper and telephoned the
authorities. An examination developed
that he was perfectly healthy. He ap.
parently had an abnormal insensibility
to pain, which probably has been ac-
centuated by practice. The lad pos.
sesses a commercial spirit and always
insists on getting fair sized fee in the
shape of stray pennies and nickels from
those who watch him perform.

kauai KOREANS
WAR ON JAPANESE

LIHUE, Kauai, August 22.-Nineteen
Koreans in Jail is the result of cele-
bration of the birthday of the Hermit
living at Pukaki last Thursday night.
1t seems that the much abused king,
emperor or potentate of Korea has a
birthday and that it is the habit of his
loyal subjects annually to celebrate tho
occasion by annihilating the visible liz,
uor supply. They did the same this
year, at least up at Pukaki. Sandpaper
and dago red were demolished to such
degree that the destroyers lost con,
troll of their fighting mood
Unluckily someone started the sub
ject of Japanese oppression in Korea
and heated speeches followed. At last
Korean, Camille Desmoulin, pointed
the road to revenge and freedom, and
before one could say Jack Robinson his
audience swarmed down to the nearest
japanese camp. And then things began
to happen. Everything that came in
the way of the Infatuated Koreans was
broken, plates, cups, heads and teeth.
The japanese were rather taken by sur
prise, but they soon recovered their
presence of mind and paid back in the
same coin. The miXup kept growing
and threatened to assume war proper
tions when somebody thought it had
gone far enough and telephoned for the
police.
The khaki boys were not slow in
answering to the call, but as soon as
the celebrators saw them coming they
took to the woods or rather the Ian
tana. The officers didn't know exactly
what tine fleeing Koreans had been do.
ing but took the fight as confession
of guilt and, began rounding them up.
They succeeded in gathering in nine
teen of the men from the Hermit King
dom and lodged them in jail for fur
Their examination. The Koreans are in
dignant that they have been arrested.
They claim that they slept peacefully
the whole night. And they are partly
right. Only they slept in Jail and were
so dead drunk that they do not remen-
Der the events that preceded the sleep.
Judge Dole will listen to the tale on
Monday.
