SECOND
BATTALION
MAY GO IN HISTORY
Disorganization Likely Resul
of Court-Martial of Five
Oregon Officers,
TROUBLE ORDERED SIFTED
Adjutant-General Tinier to Name
FiTe to Sit on Board of Inquiry,
Colonel Foorman Busy Mak
ing Out Charges 3fow.
Disorganization of the entire second
battalion of the Third Infantry. Ore
gon National Guard, may be one of the
results of the court-martial of five of
ficers of the battalion, which is to
follow their refusal last Sunday after
noon to obey the orders of Brigadier
General Maus at the maneuver cam
paign at Gate, Wash.
It has developed that a large num
ber of the non-commissioned officers
and privates are In sympathy with the
higher officers who were responsible
for the refusal to make the four miles'
march from Gate to Oakville. ana it
Is thought they will remain witn me
nrrirr others of the battalion have
taken the other side asW may be aid
In keeping the battalion together, n
being the opinion of some of the men
that the battalion should have obeyed
the orders of General Maus. The of
ficers who are under arrest declare
that they have the entire battalion be
hind them, but some of the men have
. expressed the opposite opinion.
There is a likelihood of the battalion
being so affected if the officers are
punished that it will not be possible
for It to remain intact. In this event.
Jt Is thought the men of the second bat
talion who wish .to remain with the
Guard will Join one of the other battal
ions, it being considered doubtful If
there will be a sufficient number or
men left to make up the battalion
strength, or to make possible the fill
ing up of the vacancies.
Trouble to be Sifted
Adjutant-General Finzer yesterday
received a telegram from Governor
"West Indorsing the action he had taken
so far, and authorizing him to sift the
trouble to the bottom. This telegram
will result in the appointment by Gen
eral Finzer, either today or tomorrow,
-a committee of five officers of the
National Guard to hear the cases of
the officers. General Finzer said yes
terday that he had not decided upon
the men as yet, but expects to have the
list ready by the time the charges
are filed.
Colonel Poorman is busy making out
the official charges against the men.
General Finzer expects to receive them
this afternoon or tomorrow morning,
after which time he will be In read
iness to proceed with the court-martial.
"It is my Intention," said General
Finzer yesterday, "to go to the bot
tom of this situation, and if the offi
cers did wrong, treat them according
ly. If they were right, they should
be vindicated. I have decided in my
own mind upon theofflcers to conduct
the court-martial, but am not ready yet
to make the names public."
Army Men of Opinion
Among officers of the regular Army
it Is the general opinion that the sec
ond battalion officers did wronj in re
fusing to obey the orders of General
Maus.
"The officers and others are looking
at the proposition In the wrong light."
said a prominent officer yesterday.
"The officers are putting up the de
fense that the men were tired and ex
hausted, and objected to marching
back to the camp.
"The fact that the men were tired
is no excuse- for the disobeyance of an
order issued by the general. It is
contrary to the oath of office of the
officers, and is against all military
regulations. The only time a soldier
is justified In refusing to obey the
order of a superior officer is when the
carrying out of the order of the offi
cer would be a glaring violation of the
laws of the land or of God. For in
stance, if an officer told a man to
shoot another, the soldier would be
justified in refusing and he would
be upheld.
"But in this case there was no vio
lation of law attached to the order,
and there was absolutely no excuse
for it not being carried out. Sore feet
is no excuse for a violation of this
kind and I am afraid it will go hard
with the officers."
XO REPORT MADE, SATS MACS
General Kas Xot Taken Action In
Militia Mutiny Cae.
VANCOUVER BARRACKS, Wash..
July 31. (Special.) General Marion
P. Maus. chief umpire of the maneuvers
just completed at Gate. Wash., and
commanding general of the Department
of the Columbia, returned to Vancouver
today, after taking a test ride on
horseback of 90 miles.
Concerning the allejred mutiny of
the five officers of the Second Bat
talion of the Third Oregon National
Guard, General Maus was reluctant to
make one final statement concerning
the affair. He said:
"I have not said anything publicly
about this matter, and I do not intend
to have any such controversy regard
ing it. I have made no report, nqr
taken any steps concerning it.
"I directed the Oregon regiment to
go back to its camp because it had
been arranged for it to entrain at
Oakville; Its camp site had been paid
for; its wood and forage were there
and I had neither authority nor funds
to purchase them elsewhere. The rail
road accommodations were also at
Oakville, and furthermore, the officers
of the regiment and the Adjutant
General had agreed to have them en
train at the same point. It was only
a, short march back. It would not have
entailed a hardship. The battalion
had had a short march that day be
fore the order was given to return.
"I did not know until after the bat
talion had gone away that the men
had refused to march back, and made
Investigation to assure myself of the
facts. I did not place the officers un
der arrest, but did advise the Colonel
to do so, who, as well as the Lieutenant-Colonel,
showed a prompt and
proper military spirit in every respect.
"The regiment had rendered excel
lent service and I was more than
pleased with it. Had I known that the
men felt they could not carry their
equipment I would have been glad to
have had It sent back. This matter
was not referred to me at all. I do not
blame the enlisted men and It is) evi
dent that the officers of that battalion
were alone responsible for their, con
duct. "I regret very much that they should
act in a manner so discreditable to
their regiment. which has always
been an excellent organisation.
The Oregon battalion that climbed
the hill during action July J7 and
made no complaint, did. together with
a battalion of the Idaho regiment, and
(lmt companies of the Twenty-fifth
infantry, the most severe work during
the campalen.
"What action is to be taken depends
entirely upon the Governor of the
State of Oregon, and other proper of
ficials in the state military service.
"Troops should obey first and sub
mit a complaint afterward it iney
have atiy to make. I do not believe that
had the men been provided with march
ing shoes they would have suffered any
Inconvenience In the,luty iney per
formed in the maneuver campaign.
saw some of them whose feet were in
a deplorable condition, due to shoes
onlv fit to walk about the streets.
"The efficiency of state troops is a
vital matter n6t only to the state, out
to the entire country."
It is evident from the conversation
of the officers here that they greatly
regret the alleged mutiny of the five
officers of the National Guard.

SKEWES IS CLEVER
Self-Styled Promoter Still Has
Vanishing Asset.
VANCOUVER HIS LAST STOP
Versatile "Bad Check" Man, and
Dealer In Frenzied Finance Dis
appears From Dominion City
Without Explanation.
With large Idea and small methods, a
man who called himself H. H. Skewes
arrived at Metolius, in Crook County,
early in June, and announced himself a
railroad promoter. He said, with mys
terious winks, that he represented St.
Louis capital to build a railroad from
Metolius to Prinevllle, and to extend it
to Bend. To make his credit- good he
deposited a few dollars in the brink at
Metolius. and then went to Prinevllle.
He engaged a party of surveyors to lay
out the line.
As a side issue, while he was giving
the glad hand to the farmers and tell
ing them of the value of the stock in
his company, Mr. Skewes made love to
his landlady, Mrs. Sparks, proprietress
of the Sparks Hotel, and won her heart
and hand. It is rumored that he also
absorbed her bank account of several
hundred dollars. Mrs. Sparks-Skewes
Is now hunting for her husband, not
so much to have her former name re
turned as to get her money back. She
will not confess to the exact amount
she gave her husband.
Steel Ordered, He Asserted.
Addressing the members of the Cham
ber of Commerce of Prinevllle, for the
purpose of soliciting subscriptions to
the stock of the Central Oregon &
Eastern Railroad, which had no legal
substance, he is alleged to have said
the steel for the construction work had
been ordered for delivery, not later
than October 15. and that as soon as the
surveyors had completed their work the
grading would be commenced. The
Prinevllle Chamber of Commerce In
sisted on knowing who was really back
of the enterprise, and Mr. Skewes con
fidentially told that body he was rep
resenting the O.-W. R. & N. Company.
This caused the bubble to burst, for
R. B. Miller, traffic manager of that
company, pronounced Skewes an impos
tor and warned the Prinevllle citizens
to beware of him.
When this information was cir
culated Skewes disappeared from that
section. His surveyors quit at. the
same time and are still doubtful If they
are on the payroll or whether they will
lose pay for their work.
Amusing as it now appears, S'tewes
said that work on the road would be
through such a dense farming district.
he did not want to interfere with the
farmers by grading, until they had
harvested their crops.
Automobile Deal Collapsed.
Leaving Metolius, with his bride to
await his return, Skewes came to Port
land and bought an automobile, giving
a check on the Metolius Bank In pay
ment. The check was returned as no
good in three days, but in the mean
time the machine was used day and
nlgbt. lubricated with a trail of bad
checks.
Skewes was next heard of In Seattle,
where he was attempting to make a
contract with the Union Oil Company
to furnish oil for his engines, in the
Central Oregon & Eastern Railroad.
On the strength of this, he circulated a
few more bad checks there, ana tnen
removed his operations to Vancouver,
B. C. There he took the Board of
Trade into his confidence and interested
that body in securing 4,000,000 railroad
ties for his road In Central Oregon.
About this time he learned that some
of bis Oregon creditors were on his
trail, his wife being one of them, and
he disappeared before he had made
much of a clean up. Information from
Vancouver is to the effect that he is
wanted there, so it is evident that he
placed in circulation some more of the
Metolius bank checks.
He was a free spender and of con
vlvial habits. His fraudulent opera
tions have netted him an opportunity
to spend a period in the penitentiary.
