Suspecting His Motives, Etc.

The Quartermaster General says that by agreement with the Quartermaster's department his superintendent is limited to the western army and therefore he resists being at Pittsburgh. He is determined to perform a principal part of the duty himself that Craig had previously performed so as to retrieve every possible expense for the department. Craig however is suspicious of his motives.
