THE PITTSBURG- -DISPATCH, TUESDAT, NOVEMBER 17, 1891.
WEST POINT CRUELTY
Denied by the Officers Against
Whom the Charges Were Made.
CAPTAIN L. A. CRAIG'S DEFENSE.
He Eajs the Soldier Struggled With the
Guards and Was Unruly.
A PECULIAR SOBERING-UP PROCESS.
Xewbukg, If. Y., Nov. 16. A story has
recently been circulated at "West Point that
a private soldier there had been subjected
to an act of cruelty by order of an officer
which was without warrant and unjustifi
able. It was said that Andrew Overman
and "William Keilly, privates of a cavalry
detachment, returned to their barracks on
the reservation Tuesday morning, after
having been absent on pass. Both were in
toxicated. The first sergeant, it was said, ordered
ihem to be imprisoned in the guard house.
"When the commanding officer, Captain L.
A. Craig, learned of this, he gave orders
that both men should be taken out of the
guard house and furnished with picks and
shovels and set at work in the stable yard.
Moreover, his orders were said to be that
no matter how severe the weather the men
were not to be permitted to seek shelter of
any kind. It is said to have been raining
at the time.
Overman and Keilly are said to have been
taken from the guardhouse to the stable
yard in the company wagon, and there in
structed to go to work. Keilly is repre
sented as having been able to do this, but
Overman was still too drunk to work. He
fell and was unable to rise. He lay in a
drunken stupor on the" wet ground, when
Captain Craig entered the yard. Noticing
that the soldier was lying on bis side the
Captain, it was said, directed the guard to
turn him over, so that the rain would beat
in his face.
Overman's Protest and the Result.
Overman is represented to have protested in
a mandlin way, saying that besides being
drunk he was also sick. This seemed to
anger the officer, who then ordered the men
in the stable yard to hold the' prisoner on
the ground, face upward, and ordered that
that if Overman would not submit quietly to
to tie him handand foot and thus compel
him to yield before leaving the stable yard.
It was said that the Captain cautioned his
guards to carry out his orders to the letter.
Overman claimed to have lain on the wet
ground for two hours and a half unprotected
from the inclemency of the weather and
during that time he had two chills.
"When the time arrived for him to return
to the guard house Overman was taken there
with the others. Since that time he has
been tried by conrt martial, found guilty of
various offences and sentenced to imprison
ment for 30 days at hard labor in the guard
house and fined one month's pay.
In commenting upon this incident a "West
Point man says: "We read about the cruel
ties of the Siberian mines, but what we ex
perience here is almost as bad as that"
I found two members of the cavalry de
tachment to which Overman belonged, who
say that the story is substantially correct,
and I also found a number of regular army
men on the post who confessed that they
did not know anything about it and had
not even heard of the incident
Captain L. A. Craig, commanding the
cavalry department at "West Point, how
ever, knows about the matter, and did not
hesitate to tell me the circumstances of it
Captain Craig is a fine looking, mild man
nered man, about 36 years old.
Captain Craig's Detailed Statement.
"With the consent of Colonel John "W.
"Wilson, Superintendent of the United
States Military Academy at "West Point,
Captain Craig gave me the following de
tailed statement of the Overman incident:
"On Tuesday last the detachment was
raid at about 10 o'clock a. m. At about
noon I received a message from my quarters
from the first sergeant, O'Neill, stating that
two ot the men had appeared at the bar
racks intoxicated and very disorderly. One
of these men, "William Keilly, had hereto
fore been an excellent soldier of two or
more years' service. The other was An
drew Overman, who, since his arrival at the
post last May, had misbehaved himself so
frequently as to be considered a bad ele
ment in the detachment
"The first sergeant reported that he had
confined these men in the guard house and
asked me to confirm the order. I declined
to do so and sent word to him to have the
men brought over to the cavalry stables,
where I would see them later. About 2
o'clock in the afternoon I met the first ser
geaat at the stables, and he reported that
he considered the men too drunk to bring
them there. I directed Mm to bring them
over anyhow, using if necessary the com
panv wagon.
"For the next hour I was engaged in the
riding hall, but at 3 o'clock went into the
stable yard. There I found Private Keilly
doing certain work about the yard allotted
to him, but Private Overman was lvincr on
the ground, apparently considerably under
the influence of liquor, but not so much so
as to be unable to recognize me and call me
by name.
A Struggle 'With the Guards.
"I asked the sergeant of the stable guard
why Overman was not working with the
other prisoner. The sergeant replied that
he would not get up. I told him to turn
the man over on his back, but Overman
struggled with the sergeant and other mem
bers of the guard so viciously that they
could not keep him on his back.
"I had to attend to the Tiding hall, and
in going away told the sergeant to make
Overman stay on his back until he was will
ing to stand on his feet and to enforce this
order, if he resisted, even if it were neces
sary to tie him. "When I returned from the
riding hall at 4 o'clock the sergeant stated
that he had been unable to control Overman
in any way or to prevent his leaving the
other men and running into the stables,
where he was allowed to lie down on some
bales of hay. The sergeant did not tie him
at any time, however, or use force other
than to try to restrain him from entering
the stables.
"I detailed an experienced non-commissioned
officer, with two men, to take Over
man outside the stable and to prevent him
returning, and instructed him to tell-Overman
that as soon as he would consent to
get off the grounds and walk quietly
through the post he would be taken to the
guardhouse. A little later he agreed to g
to the guardhouse quietly, but on his way
there insisted on being taken to barracks
instead. To prevent this the detail had to
carry Overmau bodily to the guardhouse.
Cruel Treatment Denied.
"The statement of cruelty is without
foundation. My purpose in bringing the
men to the stable was to keep them in the
open air under the charge of the stable
guard to sober them up, and to let them
understand that disorderly men could not
expect to sleep oft' their drunkenness in the
quarters or guard room while their comrades
were performing tlleir duties.
"During a portion of the afternoon there
was a slight, drizzling rain, which at no
time developed into anything like a rain
ttorm, and another prisoner who was under
going sentence of a general court martial
doing labor about the cavalry stable, was
not called in from his work, as has been the
invariable custom durinjj inclement weather.
"Charges and specifications were pre
ferred against Overman and Keilly, the fol
lowing morning covering drunkenness, dis
orderly conduit and resisting the giurd in
the proper performance of their duty.
Itcilly, I believe, pleaded guilty to every
thing. Overman pleaded guilty to being
drunk, but not guilty of the rest, but on
the testimony of the soldiers who constitute
the guard, he was found guilty by the sum
mary court martial. They were both sen.
fenced to the loss of a month's pay and to
be confined at hard labor for 30 days."
Captain Craig handed me the names of the'
non-commissioned officers and five or six
privates of the cavalry detachment cogni
zant of the facta in the case, they being
members of the guard pr detail having
Overman in charge, with the request to use
them ifl saw fit
These are the names: Sergeants S. Mahar,
McArdle and Lee. Corporal Turcott and
Privates Doyle, M. Doyle and George
Leonard. There were two others whose
names he did not at the time recall
