DarSir: Whoen tho inlsiurrection
in Luzon broke) out in 1,:ruiary,
11S99, 1 was holding ai C(mnlnissionl ill
the volunteer army of the Uinitod
Stati's and I* felt that. I olight, to per
form Iilitary liduty until the coiven
ing of Co! gress, Dec. *1, 18U9. I
ther-eforo hillndiately appiealed foir
active service in tho lhil ippm ies, and
finally in July received order with
tho understanding that I would be
ordered to return so as to bo present
when Congress convened.
In October, it becamuo ovident that
to leave Luizon in time to reach
Washington by Dec. .1, would neces
siatito leaving my conunand (uring
active op)eIatiolls, when I saw clearly
that a dely of two or three weeks
would enable me to remain with iy
comiaid which was performing its
part in capturing or dispersing the
insurgent government and thus aid
ing in tho pratical termiination of
tho war.
I therefore suggested that as the
first. session of Congress never enact
ed legislation prior to C3hristmas,
thatl my arrival in Washington be
foro the convening of Congress after
tO Christmas holidays WoUld attain
OV,mry purposo and would enable 1mo0
to avoid leaving my command in the
midst of activo operat ions.
li November I forwirded to thei
President my resignationi as tn offi
cor of the army, so as to prevent the
possibility of any questions arising
as to my right to my seat iln Congress.
A comibination of circumstances de
laye'd my3) reaching WVashington, and
wvhien I arrived the President veriy
kindly asked me to remiain in the
arm-y. 1 wats also niotihled by the
speaker t hat his~ ruiling w~ould be that
my'. failure to be0 prt~eent when Con
gress convened had1( wo)rked a forfeit
of my seat.
After a confer'ence with IIon. W. J.
W~ood, I asked him to niot ify you of
the condtitions and rc(enet ani oloc.
tion to be ordered for my suCCessor.
It is necw suggested thit, it is nie2es
sary mor me to send you a forimal
resignation as a member of the Fifty..
sixthI Congress froma Alabama.
I t hei efore respect fuly t ender my
resignation 1as such. I regret moiro
thban I cain oxpress aniy iniconvene&
miy abs)onico hats caused the pl) el oif
the ninth district. I will devote mv.
nelf' to their inuterests in connecti>n
with congressional matters so far as
I am11 able until my successor is ready
to qualify. I am with respect,
Your obedient servant,
Joseph Whoolor.
A subsequent mail brought to the
Governor t ho followving additional
letter from Geon. Wheeler:
To Gov. Joseph F. Johnston, Mont
gomery, Ala:
Sir: I forwarded my resignation
as a member of Coingress to you y( s
terday. It has been suggested that
it might be wvell if it were accepted
to takoeoffect when myl suiccessor is
electedh, as that wouldl onable mon to
do more in working for the district
in thle mieanItime, but that is a matter
for your botter jndgmonit.
