dismissed him at once from the jury and
ordered his name stricken from the list.
At the same time he ordered Bowen TO
appear before him yesterday to show
cause why he should not be punished for
contempt explaining that he would not
take action before election.
Bowen stated In an affidavit that he
meant no disrespect or contempt in d.

thought the need for secrecy was ended
when the Grand Jury vote had been
taken.

Judge Mayer said he was satisfied

my dear Mr.. Hobbs: Il wish YOU

thought II served Gen. Wood right 10 be
turned down by Mr.. Wilson because
l had Jumped Gen. Wood over his senior
officers az President Wilson did IN

That venerable falsehood about Gen.
Wood and myself has been denied,
should say. ut least thousand times.
! never Jumped Gen. Wood over the
heads of his seniors. President Me-
Kinley very properly land very wisely
gave Wood Brigadier Generalship in
the Regular Army after Wood had In
actual practice done capital work as
Bril- adler General Of volunteers in the
field. AT the same time President Nc
kinley jumped Franklin Bell over the
heads OF some 500 men and made him
a Brigadier General. lie was right in
both cases
81 promoted Wood and Bell in their
regular order when the time came and
never jumped either over the head of
anyone. But l did jump Pershlng over
the heads OF some hundred OF his sem
Tors and made him n Brigadier General.

that he try to find out the facts here
after before making vp his mind on
any such question; aid rs ! say. you
are quite welcome to publish this letter.
