Jorgensen, com- Capt. manding Company C, 121st Engineers, | | National Guard of the District of Co- lumbia, who, about a year ago Wwas | charged with disobedience of orders and threatened with a general court-martial, | has been completely exonerated, after | the case had been twice reviewed by the | judge advocate general of the Army. Even a reprimand which officials of the | local Guard sought to give him after the | War Department had twice dismissed the charges has been vacated. The charges grew out of allegations that Capt. Jorgensen had failed to answer certain correspondence directed to him by the adjutant general’s office of the |local Guard. After the charges were | made, they were sent to the War De- | partment “with the request that the President of the United States name the | officers who were to sit on the general court-martial. Here the papers struck their first snag, for the judge advocate | general refused the request for the ap- | pointment of the court on the ground that no case had been stated. Upon | their return, with this comment, Guard officials again sent the case to the War Department, but again they failed to | make such a legal statement of facts |as would warrant the officer being | brought to trial by a court-martial. In returning the case, the War Department | said that while failure to answer the | correspondence may have been repre- | hensible, nevertheless there was no legal reason for bringing the officer to trial. |, Then officials of the Guard under- !'took ta close the case by giving Capt. Jorgensen a reprimand and directing that it be made a part of his efficiency | record. Upon receipt of this reprimand, | the Guard officer promptly directed a letter to the President of the United States, declining to accept the reprimand under a provision of the articles of war and demanding a trial by general court- martial on the merits of the case or clse that the reprimand be vacated. The Guard officials, after several months, decided to withdraw the reprimand. REMA‘RK JAILS WOMAN. | R Frederick Justice Imposes Five | Days on Mrs. David Roberts.
