Home day* ago the Associated Tree*
dispatches contained the Information that
< apt. Isaa N Lewi*, awrcaary of the
Hoard of Ordnance, had reported to hta
iqiertora that he had obtained through
friend* In Europe the plana of
anew French non-teoollmg field
gun, and requeued that he oe
allowed C.ftn with which to build
a gun of the am* pattern for tne
Fnlted State*, agreeing that all of his
information shou.d l*e ome tne property
of the Fniied State* government. Imme
diately upon this pur-li atkm there came
fr.jm various quarters charges of betrayal
of confiden* e. and almoj* of treason, and
it was said that Krai, e was extreme!)
annoyed by the disclosures References to

th- Krupp work* at Essen, and put him
in touch with artillery experts In Fran e
How he a tuaily came into possession of
tne Information respecting the partUu..if

in evidence, nor does It api>ear to matter
a great deal, since It la asserted that the
same gun Is u#ed dally by the French
forces in China where it Is freely offer

It appears however, that Gen Buffing
ton. the head of the ordnan *e bureau. Is
the inventor of a disappearing * ,,n r * r J

has aiwa.va been oppryted to this car

Into the public print* Gen Miles imme
dlately sought to discover the terso% who
was responsible th*- publbation of
Capt Lewis’ letter, not only because It *p
l>eared to be an effort to injure Capt
Lewis, but because in his opinion It nar
row,> escaped treason to make publh* the
fact that the I'nlted States were in pos
session of a French military secret Gen
Buffington has denl*d his responsibility,
or that he knows anytning about it. And
thus the matter stands It Is probable
that a Congressional Investlgatlon will be
ordered The wum and substance of the
whole matter, meanwhile, seems, from a
disinterested viewpoint, to be grounded
In the old quarrel between Gen Miles and
certain of the military ring at Washing
