Pro OLIVER SA YS NEGRO TROOPS ARE MENACE TO PEOPLE Washington, Nov. 20.—Regarding the order of President Roosevelt discharging negro soldiers composing three companies of the Twenty-fifth infantry, which order has been temporarily suspended by Secretary of War Taft. Acting Secretary of War Oliver says; "The three companies of the Twenty-fifth Infantry were ordered dis charged because it Is not safe to have them In the army. They cannot be trusted, and for the protection of the public and the preservation of the discipline of the army their discharge Is necessary. "The Idea seems to prevail that the men were ordered discharged be cause they refused to tell on their companions and because they are black. Nothing could be further from the truth. These soldi#!* .shot up a town. All of them refuse to tell anything about the disgraceful affair at Brownsville, which Resulted fn murder. The companies are shielding mur derers. "There are men In the companies who are criminals of the worst sort. Every effort possible has been inode by the war department to find the guilty men. but without avail. If these companies were permitted to remain In the s#price and were to shoot up another town and again en danger the lives of cltisens. the war department snmld be In an Inde fensible position. It is Impossible to courtmartial each of the men In these companies, for a charge cannot be preferred against every one of the members of the companies. The government has no means of punishing the crime except by discharging all of the men."
