RAYNER SAYS TREATMENT OF
COLONEL is PUNISHMENT.
CALLS UP RESOLUTION
Senator Denies That He Threatened
to Introduce Resolution II Presi-
dent Didn't Remove Army off,cer
From Fort Grant.

Washington, May Ex-senator Ray
ner today called up his joint resolu
ton directing the president to ap
point a court of inquiry in the case o
Colonel Stewart and said that il ht
could be assured of a report durint
the present week he would not OBJ
ject to sending it to the committee OF
military affairs. M
MI. Rayner asked Mr.. Warner
whether If the resolution should be re
ferred to the committee on militar,
affairs, he would be permitted to al
pear before the committee and sub
NIT some further authorities on the
subject. Mr.. Rayner said he had
modified his resolution to express the
opinion of the senate that Colonel
Stewart was entitled to a court of In.
curry and requested" the president
to grant the court Of inquiry.
Denies Approaching President.
Something of a sensation was ere.
ated by Senator Warren asking Mr.,
Rayner whether he had approached
the executive with a threat that Ii
this man was not removed from Fort
Grant this resolution would be pre-.
sented in the %senate?"
Il utterly deny that proposition"
replied Mr.. Rayner, "and / hope the
executive has not made such a state
ment."
He added that he had not seen the
president for two years until two
weeks ago, when he was requested to
go to the White house, and that when
he responded to the invitation the
president showed him voluminous
typewriter matter about Colonel
Stewart. He had, not threatened"
the president, only stating that unless
the court of inquiry was ordered he
would offer a resolution in the SEN
ate. "As II anybody could threaten
the president" exclaimed Mr.. Rayner.
amid laughter.
Mr.. Warren said this question was
suggested by newspaper reporters
only.
President Maintains Position.
Mr.. Rayner stating that Colonel
Stewart had been sent to a fort up in
the clouds, 1000 or 5000 feet above
the sea, Mr.. Warren interrupted With
the remark that many senators lived
attitudes higher than Fort Grant.
Five times, said MI. Rayner, the
president repeated in his letters that
his treatment Of Colonel Stewart was
a punishment, which, he added, "un-
der the laws Of this country he has no
right to inflict, yet he is proceeding
by punishment to drive him into re-
tirement."
Mr.. Taliaferro Of Florida had let
ter read showing that Colonel Stew
art had been ordered away from Fort
st. Francis, st. Augustine, merely be-
cause OF q protest by the state Of Flor
ida which has control of Fort St.
Francis. He had received a letter
from the president in which the lat
ter said the punishment inflicted upon
Colonel Stewart was incident to the
discipline Of the army and concluded
by saying that as he was commander
in-chief he neither could or would sur
render the right to exercise such judg-
ment.
