The only-word to" describe it Is that wa were 'all In.' '"The men were willing and glad to do anything In reason, but they simply couldn't stand it. We were so fagged out that we could hardly move, and when the order was given, after the whole Mnar was over and the maneuvers at an end, to retrace our march to Oak vine again, still carrying those heavy packs, we couldn't "do it." "The officers merely stood up for their men and told how fagged out they - wertv The othep -two -battalions were able to obey orders all, right, but they had not been In the advance, and had not had the double quick step and the hard chase after the Blue army that we had been put through. A pedo meter in the pocltet of a lieutenant regis tered 121 miles for that morning, and if hi marched that far, most of the men had gone farther. Couldn't Obey Orders. "Even tired out as we were, w were wiling to try to totter back to camp on our swollen and blistered feet If we could leave our packs. The men offered to pay the expenses of having them brought In by wagon, but General Maus ( refused to allow It. Wa finally did U i anyway, for we couldn't carry them.' I "Under (these conditions,- General j Maus' order was utterly without Judg-! ment and unj-eflnohable. "We didn't obey! It because we couldn't, that Is all, and we deeply 1 resented General Maus' ac tion in calling our officers down before the troops for merely standing up for us. . , "when the general rode up, he com plimented the troops, and then said: 'I will pay you men, but I shall see that the officers, don't get any pay.' The men were so hot at this that they ah swered almost as one, 'If you dont' pay the officers, we don't want any pay.' "General Maus didn't stop to consider that we were not hardened up to such marching, Snd that we are not used to being treated like dogs. We bore every thing else without a complaint, though the maneuvers cost most of the men TnTrrhTTrroT e " TtraiTTIT "e "wereTaTdTjy "tTie" state, and caused some to lose their Jobs, beside crippling them up. "We all have the best Interests of the mllltln nt heart, and for that reason we arenU going to stand back and see Lieu tenant Deich and the other officers drummed out of the service for taking the part of the men in a Just cause, Without doing something about it." WEST AUTHORIZES FINZER TO PROCEED WITrUOURTMARTIAL Adjutant General W. K. Flnser of the Oregon National Guard today received the authorisation of the governor for holding a courtmartlnl to try Major R. (). Scott, Captains H. E. Williams and Walter L. Tbore and Lieutenant Rich ard tieich and II. ('. Brumbaugh, and stated that he will appoint the officers of the court as soon as the charges are formally placed In his hands. The courtniaitlnl will include not less than five officers. Vnder the articles of War, the court must be named within 30 days after the offense charged, and the trial must be within a "reasonable time," which is usually fixed at 10 days after the charges are formally made. Officers of the Oregon national guard are now preparing the charges, which probably will be signed hj Colonel Poof man. No court of Inquiry will be con vened, General Flnser explaining that this is not necessary In a case where the incident is so open and testimony so abundant as In the present case. "Never before has such an Incident ss tills taRen plsce among Oregon troops," said Oetieral Flnrer. "It Is much more serious than, the officers may have sup posed. It tends to bring discredit upon the Oregon military oi ganif Ation, and calls for immadlate attention. The arf tides of war were not framed for fun. "AS soon an the officers, engaged In preparing the charges ubtnlt them to me the courtmartiai will be appointed, ahd it will probably alt in about 10 days. There were many witnesses to the conduct of the officers accused, and there-ttlll be no necessity -lur . tailing General Maus. " Tlio language addressed to him, alleged to lninswUlUK nnd suh verslvs of discipline, was heard by many." A representative of General Mnus has reported to General Firmer (he conduct of the five officers. With this state ment the direct connection of General MSUB With HlC affair Is s.iid to be closed, lie will takfe no part in the prosecution of the charges.
