Memorandum from George B. Davis to James Franklin Bell
Judge-Advocate General Davis informs Army Chief of Staff Bell that the War Department has received a Senate resolution asking for information on the employment of detectives and the authority granted to them. Davis states that the investigation of Herbert J. Browne and William Gibboney Baldwin into the Brownsville Affair was satisfactory. Gilchrist Stewart spoke with President Roosevelt about the Brownsville Affair, and is satisfied that the shooting occurred as reported, and Browne is going to speak with Stewart to see what information he has on the matter.
