Roosevelt summarily dismissed

Roosevelt summarily dismissed whole battalion from the army.
 Goodbye, boys oi Company C." were the last words rttered by the condemned men of the Twenty-fourth United States infantry as the traps were sprung and they dropped to their death on the scaffold whica had been erected Monday night.
 Men of company C. Nineteenth in- fantry, have been guarding the negro prisoners since they were brought to San Antonio to stand trial before a Court martial for complicity in the riot at Houston on August 23 last
 A column consisting of approxi- mately 125 cavalrymen and loo in fantry soldiers assembled at the cav airy guardhouse where the negroes were confined at 5:30 am. Tuesday Trucks were provided to convey the prisoners to the scene of the execu- ton.
 Colonel Willard Theo Katz post commander was in command and led the way to the scaffold The party reached the scaffold at 6.20 am
 flood light had been arranged to give light for those in charge of ac- tual work of preparing the nooses and adjusting them to the necks of the condemned men. The cavalry and in fantry guard assembled in hollow square formation around the scaffold and the prisoners Were given the or der to march upon the death traps.
 Without tremor they stepped out with soldierly tread and singing q hymn they walked 10 their places Prayers were said by negro minis ter and by two army chaplains ana then the men were ordered to stand on the traps
 Resuming their song they stood erect and displayed the greatest for titude while the ropes were adjusted
 At TIT the major in charge of the execution, gave the order 10 spring the traps
 The triggers had been arranged one for each drop, and six men were assigned 10 each one. At the word of command they pulled on the trig gers and the thirteen negroes dropped to their deaths. Eleven of them died almost instantly, the other two quiv- ering a moment or two after the rcpe became taut
 No civilian spectators were allowed at the execution Sheriff John Tobin and several of his deputies helped to adjust the nooses, they having pre- pared the hangman's knots for the army men,

Smith, Company M, all of the Twenty fourth L. S. infantry
 The forty-sixth article of war au- thorizes department commanders in time of war to carry into execution entences oi death without reference to higher authority.
 Those named above as sentenced to death were hanged on the military reservation at Fort Sam Houston al 7:17 am, December II, 1917
 The execution was carried out rnder charge of a guard furnished by the troops at Fort Sam Houston.
 The remains W ere inferred near the place of execution
 Those named above sentenced to confinement for life will be sent t5 the United States penitentiary at Fort Leayenworth, Kansas.
 Those sentenced to confinement for a number of years will be sent to the United States disciplinary barracks al Fort Leayenworth Kansas.
 Those acquitted will be released from confinement and sent 10 join their regiment
 The hanging of 13 troopers for com pHcity in the Houston riot was gn- known to practically all officials of the war department until it was am nouuced at Fort Sam Houston. Doubt less the death sentence Of the court martial and the preparations for the executions were known to a few high officials but SO far as can be learned the departmental commander carried out the executions as a routine ar- fair as he is warranted to do in time of war and will report in a formal manner later.
 Were the country at peace the exe- cutions would have required the ap- proyal of the president In time of war, however, all such authority is decentralized and placed with re sponsible commanders.
 No such wholesale execution in the army has occurred within the memory of the present generation The last or it's kind was the execution of mem bers of the so-called "St. Patricks s battalion" by General Scott during the Mexican war. Members of the battalion deserted, joined the MeXi- can forces, later made their homes in Mexico, marrying native women and many of their descendants now are found there, natives of that coun- try in all respects, but bearing names quite foreign to the language they speak A large number of them were executed by General Scott at the bat tie of Chapultepec and their last glimpse of life was the sight of the American flag breaking out to the breeze as Scott's legions stormed the ramparts.
 The swift manner in which the Houston rioters were tried and con- victed witho1t much publicity was the subject of much remark at the war department. The last inc lent involy- ing riotlng among negro troops was
