COLONEL
R0SEFR0M
THE RANKS
HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH
HIS REMOVAL.
DONS CITlZENS'CLOTHES

fractional differences among reg
uIar army officers, spurred on by
the fact that Lieutenant Colonel
Abercrombie of the Twenty-fifth
infantry rose from a private in the
ranks instead of going through
West Point, has helped to bring on
the sensational shakeup at Fort
Wright. The fact that Colonel
Abercrombie gave his assistance
to the civil authorities at Spokane
In the Industrial Workers of the
World street speaking controversy
gave his opponents the IoophoIe
wanted and the next step was his
retirement from the command of
the post and the elevation Of the
next in command, Major Particle,
a West Pointer, who is soon to be
promoted to the position Of lieu
tenant colonel.
Officers at Fort Wright are now
expecting an investigation by the
war department in which the
merits of the street speaking con-
troversy campaign in Spokane will
be thoroughly threshed out. Gen
eral Maus, commander of the de-
partment of the Columbia, made
the statement while in this city in
December that there was no need
for dragging the military into the
affair; that it was small matter
and could have been handled by
the civil authorities, and facts to
substantiate this view of the case
will be laid before the inquiry
board when it comes.
Friends of Colonel Abercrombie
do not attribute any but the best
motives to his participation in the
|. w. w. affair, crediting him. with
desire to help the city in their
seeming inability to cope with
trying situation. But if his remOv-
al has come because of his activity
in this particular, his good inten-
tons has given his opponents
chance to GUST and thereby rid
the regular army of another man
that has come up from the ranks.
Major Particle refuses to be in
terviewed, but says the |. w. w.
has not figured in the case He
says everything is lovely at the
fort and that there are no factions.
Colonel Abercrombie today doff-
ed his military apparel and put on
civilian clothes. He will remain
in his quarters at Fort Wright UNI
til the war department acts on his
request for retirement. The de-
partment headquarters has already
approved his request to be relieved
from further service in the army.

COUNTER PETITION

Bearing several hundred names,
the counter petition to the city
council from the federal and team
sters' unions, asking that the in
crease Of 20 cents in the daily

remonstrance of the moneyed in
terests, will be submitted to the
city fathers tonight.

council last night and the secre-
tary was requested to file the petit
