Gen Frederick Funston Dies Suddenly at San Antonio

with characteristic tenacity he stuck
70 the army.
When Vera Cruz was occupied,
Maj. Gen. Wood chief OF staff, i'm
mediately selected Funston as the
logical man for the field command.
Every army officer expected there
would be fighting OF the hard guer-
lila kind used in the Philippines and
every one agreed that when Fun
ston landed in Vera cruz. "he would
start something"
Obeyed Wilson'S Orders.
But when Funston unloaded his
troops and relieved the navy OF pos
session OF the city. he learned that
Pres't Wilson's orders were that
there was 10 be no aggressive move
ment; that the army was 10 watch
and wait. The pressure on the lit
tie commander can only be realized
by those who were with him in Vera
Cruz in those crucial hours. Thou
sands of Americans thronged the
city with the most extreme stories
OF conditions in the interior and
urged that the army move on; en-
thusiasm for finishing the job" was
high among the younger officers.
The outposts were insulted, even
fired upon. American troops were
kidnapped by the Mexicans, one sol
der was killed and burned; the
camps were raided by marauders.
Every provocation 10 spur a fight
I'm 60 r~g~~ -.
Funston never forgot his orders,
whatever his own feelings might
have been.
He held down the situation and
Pres't Wilson made him a major
general.
Several i'm Line.
Besides Maj Gen. Scott, the chief
of staff. there now are five major
generals in the army, any one of
whom might be assigned TO the
command of the southern depart
ment. Gen. Wood, at New York;
Gen. Barry, at Chicago. and Gen.
Bell at San Francisco, already COM
mand departments. The other two
are Gen. Pershing and Gen. Bliss,
now on duty at the war department
as assistant chief OF staff. II was
thought probable Monday night that
Gen. Pershing would be given the
command, although no official state
ment was to be had on the sub
ject.
Gen. Scott was deeply affected by
the news. Gen. Funston's unas-
Stunning ways endeared him TO all
with whom he was associated" he
said. "and his military efficiency
earned the confidence Of the war
department. The secretary of war
recently sent him a commendatory
letter about his conduct of affairs
on the border, while his service at
San Francisco at the time of the
earthquake and at Vera Cruz will
not soon be forgotten. Personally
l feel the loss of a real friend"

WAS YOUNGEST MAJOR
GENERAL OF THE LINE


WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. - Maj.
Gen. Funston's sudden death came
as a great shock To high officials or
the army and TO Pres't Wilson. He
was one of the distinguished COM
manderS of the service and one OF
whom greater things were expected
in the future. The youngest major
general Of the line. vigorous and ap-
parently healthful, he had been
counted on by his superiOrs for
many more years Of active service.
The news reached the war de-
partment late tonight in brief dis
patch from the headquarters Of the
southern department. saying Gen.
Funston had died Of heart failure.
IL was telephoned 20 Sec'y Bakers
home. where a dinner was being
given 10 the president with most OF
the ranking army officers in WASH
ington among the guests.
Sec'y Baker made this statement:
Gen. Funston's death is loss &c
the army and a loss TO the coun-
try. During the trouble OF the
Mexican border his work has 6een
dificult. exacting and delicate His
conduct has been that OF a soldier
and he has exemplihed the high ira
dition OF the American army by his
quick. intelligent and effective ac-
ton. Throughout il all the sympa-

department has been complete and
no shadow OF disagreement has
arisen.

CAREER PICTURESQUE
Won Fame in Philippines.

The picturesque and dashing cap
ture OF Aguinaldo, the Filipino reb-
ell chief, was the achievement which
brought Funston prominently to the
attention of the American people.
but he performed many services for
his country besides that which were
probably more difficult. His admin
istration Of affairs in Vera Cruz,
where he carried out the presidents
orders with firm hand, Simply
holding the city when every infiu-
ence about him was centered upon
forcing the American army into ac-
tual fighting with the Mexicans,
probably was the most notable serv-
ice of his career.
The American troops had been in
possession of Vera Cruz only a few
days when one of the Mexican gem
erals sent in a message saying in
most polite terms that he was I'M
able to longer restrain his troops,
and that they were about to ad-
vance and drive the Americans into
the sea.
IF you can't hold your troops
back, I can" was the laconic mes
sage Funston sent back.
Reared on a Farm.
Funston. a native Of Ohio, and
reared on a Kansas farm. had a re-
markable career before he became
a soldier. Few people know that
his first work was as a scientist
with a bent toward botany. AS an
agent of the department of agricul-
ture in 1891. he took part in the
Death Valley expedition; then he
explored Alaska and the British
northwest and crossed Alaska to the
Arctic ocean and travelled from Nc
kenZie river to Boring sea.-a jour
ney Of about $500 miles. He
camped lin the KlOndike during the
winter of 1898. and then alone float
ed down the Yukon in a canoe, a
journey Of hundreds OF miles
through a wilderness without see
ing another living soul. Soon after
that he resigned from the depart
ment of agriculture and travelled in
Mexico.
When the last Cuban insurrection
broke cut Funston applied TO the
revolutionary junta in New York
for service with the rebel army. but
the Cubans suspected him OF being
a spy or an agent OF the United
States running down violations OF
neutrality laws. Finally he con-
vinced them of his intentions and
for many weeks, in rooms on an out
OF the way street in the lower east
side OF New York, Funston instruct
ed recruits in the handling OF ma
chine guns, of which the Cubans
were ignorant Soon afterward he
was taken into the Cuban army
with a commission.
Promotion Came slowly.
When he won his rank Of briga-
der rs a reward for his capture of
Aguinaldo. his active service in the
regular United states army began.
He speedily reached the top OF the
list OF brigadiers. but when there
were vacancies in the list OF major
generals he was passed over no less
than six times by Priests Roosevelt
and Taft. At times Funston almost
despaired of further promotion hut

U. S. MARINES OBJECT
TO GIVING UP THEIR
UNIFORMS FOR KHAKI

American Training Camp in France,
Aug. 10.-(By Associated Press.)-
The marines Of, the expeditionary force
will make a fight to retain their for
est green uniforms against a. tentative
order which would place them in reg
ular army khaki. The marines think
they can arrange q necessary supply
OF their distinctive clothing but army
officers feel 1t would perhaps be better
to have the entire expedition Uniform
ed alike.
The marines hold that to abandon
their distinctive dress would tend to
lower the morale of the men which
in turn would rob the expedition OF
the spirit of friendly rivalry now ex-
listing between services. The marines
cite the case of the Alpine Chasseurs
in France who won their fight early
In the war to retain their distinctive
uniforms of dark blue against an or

w. r. Brents, an appointee OF tho

titled that Governor Ferguson indi-
Gated an intention to veto the univer-

Vinson and other faculty members
were removed.
DIR. Vinson was cross-examined on
the management and expenditures of
the university, including the COVER
nors charge Of dead men" on the
payroll; extravaganza In expenditures
and snobbishness in Greek letter fra
ternities. All the governors charges
were denied.
The matter OF fr~aternities was gone
into exhaustively and it appeared
that up to two years ago there were
serious abuses in connection with
them. They now are strictly regulat-
ed, high scholarship requirements be-
ing imposed, DIR. vinson said.
