Clraham, Hutler and Davis went Into

RBrdlng the IlkMy destination of the
troops of thp Second corps, fleneiul
Eutler told me this afternoon that Spc
rttary Alger stated to him positively
that thp war depatnu-nt had no defi
nite plans at present iFRardlng any of
t!u troops now at Camp Alger and lie
could not ever, give them nn Intima
tion of what would prnhahlv he done
with them
Kverj thing depends, he said, on the
developments of the next few elus.
As to the Honolulu assignment, Gen
eral Hutler gave It as his peisonal
opinion that owing to Hawaii helm;
peacefully annexed Instead of forcibly
seized, as was thought would be neces
sary owing to tho senate's obstinacy,
only a few tiooiia will be sent there
and tl'ebc will be taken fiom the Pa
cific toast.
General Uutlei, when questioned dl
lect, admitted after some hesitation
that one of tho purposes of the vlblt to
the war department was to make
known to tho wur room at the White
Houso that It would be especially
pleasing to tho officers and men of the
Second corps it General Graham and
his whole command was sent Into
Poi to Rico or some other Held of ac
tion. The question which evoked his ad
mission was piompted by a rumor
freely cliculatcd of late that Geneial
Graham does not view with pleasuie
the prospects of being left heie In
charge of a camp of equipment and In
stiuctlon while the other coips com
manders aie gaining glory at the fiont.
Urlgadler Geneial Goblu wus this nf
teinoon presented with u handsome
gold-mounted mvouI and belt by the
members of his foimer staff in tho

present with the exception of Mnjois
Millar and Oakfoid, who found It Im
possible at tho last moment to make
the tilp. The speech of piexentation
was made bj State Litii.uMii Egle, of
Hairlsbuig.
Geneial Gobln brought his handled -thlef
to his eves several times while
speaking his ciatltuele, and when the
band stiuck up "Auld Lang Syne" at
the conclusion of his lemaiks. he had
to tuin bis back to hid his emotions.

It would appear from the evidence
adduced In police court yesterday

Private Flannery, of Compnny B, by
tho article In tho Washington Post,
which stated that he was arrested for
felonious assault upon a 4-year-old
girl In Washington thn evening pre
vious. Flannory claimed he was
drugged and could not remember
what he did. Eyo witnesses testified
that while ho picked tho little girl up
In his nrius ho did not nbuse her In
any way other than to frighten her
almost Into hysterics. That no out
tago was attempted, as attested by the
fact that the whole Incident trnns
plred In a public plate and with a
number of people In close proximity.
Ho was allowed to go upon payment
of a fine of 10.

Major General Otis has stated that
