NEGRO SOLDIERS
DID THE SHOOTING
Senate Committee Appointed to In
vestigate Brownsville Affair
Makes Its Report.
Investigation Extended Over Two SEES
eions Of Congress, Nearly Every
One of the Men Dishonorably
Discharged by President
Testifying In Their
Behalf.

Washington.-That the shooting at
fray at Brownsville, Tex, on the night
OF August 1918. 1906. was done by
some negro soldiers of the Twenty
fifth infantry, and that the testimony
taken before the senate committee on
military affairs fails to identify the
guilty persons, is the opinion of eight
members of the committee. Four
members of the committee voted
against the decision, and one member
did not vote The resolution declar
ing the guilt OF the negroes was sub
ritted by Senator Lodge, and was
adopted after five resolutions by Sem
ator Foraker. one by Senator Dupont
and one by Senator Scott, all of which
were offered as substitutes, had been
voted down.
The vote on Tuesday was reached
after prolonged investigation extend
ing over two sessions OF congress, and
after evidence had been taken cover
ing thousands of pages. Practically
every negro of the three companies
of infantry dishonorably discharged
by President Roosevelt testified in his
own behalf, while evidence in support
of the president was given by many
army officers and citizens of Browns
vile. Throughout the entire contro-
versy, which in many sections OF the
country had been made a political is
sue, the anti-administraton side has
been directed by Senator Foraker In
the final vote in the committee, a ma
jority of the Republican members
came to his support. The Ohio sena-
tor expressed himself as gratified at
tt is, as it was apparent from the out
set that all of the Democratic MEM
bers were convinced that the negroes
did the shooting.
