In 1880 he was transferred to the 1st Infantry.[3] He was appointed Assistant Adjutant General of the army in 1893. He was a Lieutenant Colonel during the Spanish–American War. He was also Adjutant General of the 8th Army Corps during the war. He was appointed Brigadier General of volunteers after a brief period as Adjutant General of the army.[1] As a Brigadier General of volunteers he served in the China Relief Expedition and in the Philippine-American War during 1900–1901. He became a Brigadier General in August 1903.[3]

At the start of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905, he was assigned to the Imperial Russian Army as a military observer.[2]

In 1907, he was chosen as commander for the Army of Cuban Occupation and Pacification by President Theodore Roosevelt. He was promoted to Major General on April 29, 1908. He became Superintendent of the United States Military Academy on August 31, 1910.[3] He was succeeded by Clarence Page Townsley as Superintendent of the Academy on August 31, 1912.[4] He was assigned to command the Eastern Division of the US Army for the next two years. In 1914 he was sent to the Philippines and China as commander of all the American troops. He served as Commander of the Central Department from Mar. 21, 1918 to January 14, 1919.
