Special Despatch TO THE New York HEzAtp.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. G., June 4.
Major-Gen. Peter c. Harris. Adjutant-
General of the Army. whose assertions
tina. he had been ridiculed in a fiction
story written by Robert J. Quinn. one OF
the clerks In his office, led to Quinn
losing his $4,000 job. became the target
to-day of a long poem. covering most
of the first page OF a publication known
as The Reclassifcationist, printed in TIE
interests of the Government clerks.
The poem. written by Mr.. Quinn. sar-
castically assails an officer called Major
Gen. Inklnpen." who seems to be
parallel to the character to which Major
Gen. Harris objected, then called Major
Inkinpen." 1t is a direct assault on an
officer who remained in Washington dur
ing the war, more concerned with the
punctuation OF letters than with fighting
on the front. In view Of the circum-
stances that have gone before. there is
little doubt In the minds of those in
Washington who have been smiling at
the developments that Major-Gen. Harris
rs the officer Mr.. Quinn had in mind In
the poem.
"Major-Gen. Inkinpen is honored
among all soldier men," the poem starts.
continuing with the assertion that this
gallant officer won his medals and
badges in "a battle fought this side of
Hoboken" and three thousand miles
from soldiers grave"
Major-Gen. Bundy Is referred to as
having reawakened the spirit Of France.
but mention is made of the fact that
the Major star" was taken from Bundy
after the war. The explanation is made /:
For while fame comes of winning fight,
It's safer to get your commas right;
But Major-General Inkinpen
lis honored among all soldier men;
His shoulders still bear two bright stars,
His padded chest beribboned bars"
