AN OFFICER NOT ALLOWED 70 STRIKE How Private Soldiers Abroad Are Punished. ' MIGHT BE RUN THROUGH eet The alleged brutal treatment of Private Hammond by Captain Lovering at Fort Sheridan having aroused much popular in- terest in the question of the treatment of evlisted men by their officers, a reporter of The Star made inquiries at the War De- partment this morning in regard to the treatment of soldiers by their officers in our army, as well as in foreign armies, and to ascertain especially whether the striking of a soldier by an officer was anywhere recognized as a punishment for military of- fenses. “Anything in the shape of striking a sole dier as a customary means of punishment,” sald one specially well-informed otficer,who acted as spokesman for a number of others, is not recognized in the army of any civil- ized power. It certainly is not recognized in our army, and it never has been. In the years immediately succeeding the re- bellion, when the ranks of the army con- tained a considerable residum of bummers and bounty jumpers, and when there was often a necessity of checking mutinous con- duct in isolated detachments in the Indian country, where the machinery of military law was not always at hand, harsh meas- ures were sometimes needed, but all this has long since changed, with the altered conditions of service and the wonderful improvement in the class of men now con- stituting the enlisted portion of the army. The fact that in our army of 25.0% men, trrounded with an equal number of argus- eyed newspaper men, only two cases with- in a decade have called forth netice should demonstrate that anything like harsh treat- ment cf enlisted men by striking or other- wise ill-treating them is so rare as to be practically unknown. In fact the Ameri- can soldier is not only the best paid, the best clothed, the best housed and the best fed soldier in existence, but he is ulso the best treated sold‘er in the world: and the relations existing between him and his offi- cers are those of esteem on the one hand and kindness on the other. Pack Drill for Tommy “In the British army Att the punishments that can be arbitrarily inflicted on a sol- dier are of a kind unknown in our service.

Indeed, the matter seems to have been so common in the Ruesian army as to have usually been passed over without comment. The Russian soldier, however, is a differ- ent man from the American soldier, and it is possible that methods very objec- tionable with us might be less so in the army of the czar. Tarks Are Tractable. “There seems to be no regular code of military punishments in the Turkish army, everything of that sort being left to the discretion of the captain. The Turkish troops are, however, extremely tractable and docile, as well as being splendid fight- ing men, and their religious (Jevotion ren- ders military discipline very largely a mat- ter of religious duty. It is stated by an in- telligent observer of the recent campaign in Thessaly that the Turkish troops were guiltless of pillage, that there were no stragglers seen, that there were no guard houses and no drunken men.

TRUSTEES’ SALE OF FRAME HOUSE ON WASH- INGTON STREET BETWEEN TAYLOR AND ADAMS STREETS, ANACOSTIA, D.C.

The ‘unspeakable Turk’ is, in fact, such a tractable soldier that his officers seem to have no difficulty in con- trolling him with very gentle measures. The captain may order a soldier punished in almost any sort of way, for almost any kind of offense, even going so far as to re- sort to the bastinado; but it may be stated to the credit of both officers and men thay punishments are rare and mild. France and Italy. “In the armies of France and Italy the discipline is of a nature similar to that of Germany and Russia, though the di plinary measures are not so harsh. It ma; be admitted, however, that the discipline in the French army has never been so good the German army. SoipeaNicg: generally, it is the wish ana endeavor in every army to treat the men as humanely as possible, not only as a matter of sound military policy, but be- cause of the strong bond of sympathy ex isting between officers and suldiers. Wh ever harsh disciplinary measures have been taken It will usually be found that they have been applied to hard cases and incor- rigible insubordinates. What the fate of a German soldier who would refuse to obey the order of his superior officer would be I cannot say, but it would surely be much more severe than anything known In this country. In some European armies the soldier who would definitely refuse to obey an order would probabiy be run through with a sword. Obedience ts the very corner stone of military efficiency, and disobedience constitutes a military crime of a very grave nature. juence of a Free Press, “In comparing our army with European armies it should always be remembered that there is no other country where the. press is so free und so enterprising as it is ia our own. The slightest occurrence out of the usual condition of affairs in our army it at once spread before the public, ana the case is largely prejudiced before an official investigation has established the real facts. If in a single instance in many years an officer, either under the stress of necessity or entirely without ex- cuse, takes harsh measures with a soldier, it seems to be the tendency of the press to regerd the matter as typical, instead of
