armory on the evening of Sec. 10, and
nil the nompanles composing me it
lUglmcnt hnd been duly ordered by Col.
Charles U. Comfort to report there at 8
o'clock Saturday night.
Company il, tho Uaronunlet uuaras,
comuiundsd by Cnpt. 0. U. Chapln,
failed to nnpear. thereby violating mili
tary discipline, and no report was re
ceived from the commander accounting
for this Inlluro to oboy regimental
orders.
There has been a crerj; deal or specu-
latlen as to what report Mnjor O'Meara
would inako. It has noon learneu mac
in his report he rocommonded that the
sevoroat posstblo penalty be impoBea.
This, of course, meanB a court-mnrwai
for the on tire company.
The ofllcers explain that tho men re
fused to roport, aud they could not
coinpol them. This is, of course, the
plainest kind of mutiny.

Chicago, Dec, 20. Tho members of
the Dolta Kappa Epsilon Frfttornlty aro
indignant over the open letter published
by William Lloyd Uarrlson, which makos
charues of cruelty in branding tho
novitiates with a lighted cigar and also
of drunkenness against tho D. K. E.
Cliuntcr nt Harvard.
They are the more indignant beoauso
there is no such fraternity now at liar
vard. Trnov O. Drake, of the Grand
Pacific Hotel, the secretary of tho
Western D. K. E. Assooian, saysi
"Wo have no chapter at Harvard.
We once had. but at oar national con
vention held at Now York. November,
1890. that chapter was expelled on tho
same charaes brought forward by Mr.
Qarrhon. Restrictions impossible to be
fulfilled wore put upon them and in the
following January the cnapcor sur
rendered Its charter.
"In late vears it has not been a real
college fraternity. There was and still
la a annhnmoro local society known as
'The Dickey Club,' but iti mombers do
not wear our badiie. They are not
mombers of the fraternity. "

M'ASHINOTOtf, Dec 20. Aslstant Sac-
rotary of State Adee, who has direct
charge of the details of all diplomatic
questions, says that thero Is no founda
tion whatever for tho published state
ment that the United States uaj agreed
to pay an indemnity to Italy, iho
latest phase of the situation, he says,
was tho paragraph In President Harri
son's message, wboroln ho said that tho
United States was engaged on an inves
tigation, to ascertain whether it was
under obligatlus to Italy, aud that no
doubt tho allalr would be amiaably
arranged. It Is kuown that the fact
that tho murdered Italians were Ameri
can citizens disposes of any claim for
indemnity.
