The announcement that Mark
Hanna will retire frorn active busi
ness life does not mean that he is
going out of the business of running
the government.
Col. H. C. Sankord is making his
rival, Prof. Seese, very uncomfort
able by charging him with bolting
the Republican ticket. Of course
the Third ward statesman is wholly
without sin in this regard.
If the man with the dark lantern
who went about the county in '96
exposing the dishonesty of Mexican
dollars, will only take a notion to
turn tho light on the underhanded
methods by which the Russell salary
bill was defeated in the last Legisla
ture by the local Republican Ma
chine, the people will have reason to
rise and bless him.
Senator Burrows announces
that "the Philippine insurrection, if
not speedily crushed, will have a
disastrous effect for the Republican
party upon the general elections in
1900." The Senator's views are
"shared by several cabinet members
and the President himself." Hence
forth the shabby pleas of "manifest
destiny" and "benevolent assimila
tion" should be thrown to tho winds.
If a bloody war of subjugation must
be prosecuted for the bole purpose of
promoting the political fortunes ol
the Administration, there should be
no equivocation about the fact.

Brooklyn, July 31. This city, or
rather this borough of Greater Ktw
York, is unquestionably the most unique
of all cities. Apart from New York and
removed any considerable distance from
the great metropolis, it would be the
second or at least the third city on
this continent in population and com
mercial importance. But New York, of
which it is a part, overshadows it Its
individuality is largely lost, merged into
the greater city across the river. Fully
450,000 people, mainly living in Brook
lyn and doing business in New York,
daily swarm across the great bridge
which spans the East river or cross on
the various ferries that ply between its
shores. Brooklyn is called the dormitory
PEOPOSED TOWElt OV LOOKOUT BILL, PROS
PECT PABK.
of New York, which is a fairly correct
designation, yet not wholly so With
its population of over a million people
Brooklyn is a city on its own account,
and has its own distinctive institutions
and landmarks, which no process of
consolidation can wholly efface.
Brooklyn is not inaptly referred to as
"Trolleyville, " and we who live here
are frequently called "trolley dodgers."
And that's no libel. "We do have to
dodge trolley cars, for their tracks com
pletely gridiron the city. Within the
borough of Brooklyn there are .fully 400
miles of electric railway-track. The
electric lines are mainly owned and
operated by the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
company, which also operates tho ele
vated railroads. With the exception of
a comparatively small independent line
the Coney Island and Brooklyn rail
road this company has a monopoly of
the passenger traffic of Brooklyn. Un
der normal conditions the various sur
face and elevated lines daily carry 850,
000 passengers, a considerable percent
age of whom are conveyed over the
bridge to and from the borough of Man
hattan. About 2,000 cars are operated
daily, making 15,000 trips and covering
in the aggregate 200,000 miles. These
figures do not include the Long Island
railway, which does a large local pas
senger business within the city limits.
In the matter of parks and public
grounds Brooklyn surpasses most cities.
Within its corporate bounds 1,600 acres
are set apart as public parks. The most
noted of these is Prospect park, in
which there are 450 acres. A tract of
680 acres between Ridgewood and Rich
mond Hill was recently acquired by the
park department at a cost of about $2,
000,000, and is designated as Brooklyn
Forest park. An effort is now being
made, with fair prospect of success, to
establish a park at Coney Island, com
prising something like 400 acres stretch
ing along the seashore from Sea Gate to
Manhattan Beach.
Brooklyn might almost be called a
summer resort, as within its borders
are so many of the most delightful and
widely known seaside places Manhat
tan Beach, Brighton, Bath Beach, Rock
away, Far Rockaway and the always
"great and only" Coney Island.
Stretching from Coney Island to As
toria, on Long Island sound, Brooklyn
lias over 20 miles of water front, along
nearly all of which the depth is suffi
cient to allow the approach of tho lar
gest ocean going ships. Its facilities for
wharfage and storage are nnsurpassed
either in extent or convenience by any
port in the world. Just back from the
water front on the East river is Walla
bout market, one of the largest markets
in the world, covering 22 acres of
ground, the site and buildings having
cost about $2,000,000. The business
litre transacted aggregated $30,000,000
a year.
Brooklyn is termed "the City of
Homes and Churches," and the term is
not misapplied. Here is the most noted
church in this country Plymouth,
made famous by Henry Ward Beecher.
There are in Brooklyn 500 churches, em
bracing every shade of religious belief.
It is likewise a city of schools and li
braries and benevolent institutions.
Aside from the public Echools, there are
here about 30 educational institutions
of various kinds. There are 125 hospi
tals, dispensaries and asylums. Brook
lyn has doubtless the most historic and
beautiful burial ground in this country
Greenwood cemetery where rest the
ashes of many of the most distinguished
people of Brooklyn and New York.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 3. The casket
containing the remains of Colonel Haw k
lns was taken ashore today with cere
monies befitting Colonel Hawkins' rauk.
The remains of the dead commander
will be sent to Pennsylvania for In
terment. Colonel Hawkins died on
July 18, on board of the trans
port Senator enrnute to this city with
his regiment from Manila. His death
occurred two days after the transport
sailed from Yokohama. Cancer of the
bowels was the cause of death. The re
mains were embalmed on board the ship
and brought here for shipment to I'eun
xylvania. The ship bearing the legi
meut has arrlieil, bringing the sad news.
Mag at Half-Mast.
The Senator arrived with her flag at
h.ilfm.Lst on account of the death of
Colonel Hawkins.
Tho Senator sailed from Manila, on
July 1, with 38 officers and 721 enlisted
men. The transport was at Nagasaki
on July 15, when Colonel Hawkins was
taken ill with cancer of the bowels, from
which he had been a suiferer during the
greater part of his campaign in the
Philippines, and for which he had un
dergone treatment in the military hos
pital ai Manila. His illness continued
during the following day, July 10, when
the Senator was at Yokohama, and two
days later he passed away at sea
Colonel Hawkins' illness dated from
the battle of Malolos, when he exposed
himself almost recklessly in the disease-breeding
climate. Ho was re
spected and loved by every man of his
command, and his death is deeply
mourned by the troops. His body was
placed in a hermetically sealed casket,
and on the Sunday following his death
impressive funeral services were con
ducted by the chaplain of the regiment,
all of his men being in attendance.
The remains were placed in the stern
of the vessel and lay in state, attenaed
day and night by a guard of honor dur
ing tho remainder of the voyage.
After the death of Colonel Hawkins,
the command of the regiment was
vested in Lieutenant Colonel Barnett,
who, like the dead commander, is popu
lar among the enlisted men, and made
a good record in the war.
Of tho 750 officers and men whom
Colonel Barnett brought to San Fran
cisco, three are privates iuthe Sixth ar
tillery, U. S. A., and one is a member
of the Nebraska regiment who was left
behind at Yokohama when his compan
ions sailed for this port on the Han
cock. A dozen stowaways were also
concealed in tho hold and were soon
brought to light after the Senator left
Yokohama.
One Man a Victim of Appendicitis.
The Senator had a good trip from
Japan. With the exception of the sad
illness and death of the regimental com
mander there was no sickness aboard,
baiting a few cases of seasickness and
half a dozen cases of dysentery. At
bight of land, all the invalids were able
to leave tho bunks and line up on the
main deck except one poor fellow who
has developed symptoms of appendi
citis and who will be operated upon in
the hospital here.
When the Tenth Pennsylvania left
for the Philippines last year the muster
compribed 850 men. Twenty-four were
killed in battle or died in the Manila
hospital, ami the rest of the sick and
wounded, to the number of seven, are
on tho Hospital ship Relief, which will
probably arrive hero within the next
few days.
The quarantine officer boarded the Sen
ator and after a careful inspection passed
crew and passengers. Tho transport,
had dropped anchor off the Folsoni
Street wliart and it was decided that
the regiment should not be landed until
today. Under cover of darkness, how
ex er, two privates slipped off in a tug,
dropping down by a lope which had
been used to haul up two sacks of mail
matter sent out by the postmaster to
the regiment.
The privates who thus absented them
seh es vv ithout leave announced their
mteutiou of seeiud the town last night
aud of lcjomiugthc ranks when the
regiment was lined up on tho dock to
day. As the official committee on re
ceptiou to tho regiment will not arrive
here from Philadelphia until this even
ing, the substitute committee appointed
lufoiin.Uly undertook that duty. A tug
had been chattered for today with the
expectation that the Senator would not
arrive last night aud arrangements made
to go out to meet the transport with a
band, stacks of flowers and tons cf dain
ties for the soldiers. Tho premature ap
pearance of the transport last evening,
however, did not permit the carrying

formerly of Philadelphia; Alex Coul

bell of the Philadelphia Times, has
tily embarked and wire alongside tne
Senator, extending a warm greeting to
their fellow Pcnnsylvanians aud wel
coming the bra e lads back to their na
tive laud.
Out of respect to tho dead regimental
commander, there was little cheering or
other noisyrdemoustratious.but the men
quietly expressed their delight at the
first glimpso of the Golden Gate. Like
the Oregon and Nebraska regiments,
the Pennsylvania troops, prior to sailing
from Manila, voted in favor of beinK
mnstered out in San Francisco.
Lieutenant Colonel Barnett, who is
now in command of the regiment, in
the course of an interview, said:
"The boys are all glad, of course, to
get back home again, but their joy is
ringed with sadness on account of the
death of Colonel Hawkins.
"The colonel Mas a most kind and
considerate commander, who took a
keeu individual interest in his men aud
it is little wouder that they feel his loss
a personal bereavement.

the beginning of the campaign which
ended in the capture of Malolos. Tho
regimental surgeon had advised him to
retire for rest aud medical attention.

but, tho tolonel peremptorily refused,
declaring that he would go wherever
his men went.
"When the final volley was fired at
Malolos, Colonel Hawkins was right in
front ot the firing line, urging his men
onward and encouraging them with his
exhibition of personal bravery. After
that decisive battle the colonel's illness
increased. The ailment developed rap
idly in the unhealthy climate. After
we embarked ho sank steadily and his
death at sea was not unexpected."

in 1SS4, 1SS9 and 1894. His fourth term ex
pired when he was in the volunteer sen
lce in the Philippines. He has for a long
time been the senior colonel in the Pcnn
slania guard and he was instrumental
In its reorganization.
With the reorganization ot the regiment
and Col Hawkins at the head it became a
strong organization for efficient military
service. The companies were all from
countrv towns, and as many of its mem
bers were fresh from the farm, it became
known n- Hawkins' hayseed regiment.
It, however, always stood close to the
leaders in the annual state inspections.
During his twenty years' service as
commander of the regiment Col. Haw
kins has never missed an encampment or
been absent at any occasion where his
regiment was represented. He was in
command at the inauguration of Presi

When President McKiniey issued his
call for volunteers for the Spanish war
Hawkins, as colonel of the Tenth, was
anxious to go to the front with his regi
ment. His command was selected as the
only one from the Keystone state to be
taken to the Philippines, and this was
considered a mark of honor to the gal
lant colonel and his efficient regiment.
Col. Hawkins has had a political record
of some interest, as well as a military
one, being now the representative from
the Washington and Beaver district in
the state senate. He was elected to this
office while on his way to the Philip
pines, ard had no opposition, receiving a
phenomenal vote In the district.
He preferred to remain in the distant
land of the Philippines to fight for an
serve his country, to look after the bojs
of bis command who had been intrusted
to his care, than to come home merely to
gain political honor.
He had been a candidate for" the senate
eight jeais before, but the presence of
another Republican in the field at the gen

election of the Democrat.

Aleo Three New Cases of the Disease
at That Place s-oldlers Ordered to llat

NOlil'OLK, a Aug. 2 lteport from
Phoebus stated that ix cases of jellow
fever had been found and that there had
been two deaths ainoug the nejrw popu
lation ot l'aoebns adjollllns the home.
Washington, Aug. 2. "Three new
cases of yellow fever in the Soldiers'
home at Hampton and one death" was
the official report received by Surgeon
General vVyrnan from Dr. Wasdin, the
yellow fever expert on duty at the in
stitution. Added to Dr. Wasdin's fig
ures, sent to Dr. Wyman the diy be
fore, this made 40 cases in all which
had occurred at the home, of which
eight had proved fatal. Surgeon White
telegraphed Dr. Wyman that in his
opinion there was little doubt that there
had been some fever infection in the
neighboring village of Phoebus, but
the surgeon general said that this dis
patch had not been followed by any evi
dence of a positive case at that plave.
Should the fever develop there, how
ever, no surprise would be felt, in view
of the proximity of the place to the Sol
diers' home and the mixing of the in
mates of the institution with the people
of Phoebus.
The opinion was expressed that the
situation continued encouragine, inas
much as the disease had been kept
within its original bounds. None of the
nearby towns other than Phoebus had
reported tho appearance of infectiou or
suspicious cases. The people for miles
around the home wore very much
alarmed, but quiet. No restrictions had
been placed on tho departure of tho sev
eral hundred visitors at Old Point Com
fort, but Dr. Pettuswill exercise careful
supervision of those who may leave, so
as to avoid danger of their communicat
ing the disease. This will apply also to
tho soldiers stationed on tho government
reservation there, most of whom have
been ordered to proceed to Battery
Point, Del.

A LONG DISTANCE fTGHTER.
IJlaucoTliongM Santiago hhould Not Hhv
Keen surr. ldered Parcja aud
Toral on Trial.
Madrid, Aug. 2. Tho second session
of the courtmartial of Generals Toral
and Pareja, charged with surrendering
Santiago do Cuba to tho Americans
without having exhausted all means of
defease, took plate and General Pareja,
in his defense, said tho garrison of the
city of Santiago de Cuba lacked food,
many of the boldiers having died of
hunger. In addition, tho hospitals
Licked medicines. Tiie general read
several telegrams eNchausred between
the authorities at Washington and Ma
jor General Shatter, tho latter showing
himself confident of forcing the sur
render of Santiago de Cuba.
General Toral made a similar defense.
He read a telegram sent him by Captain
General Blanco, who, after consulting
with tho authorities at Madrid, ap
proved of the "capitulation.
Another Spanish officer testified that
when he entered Santiago he found three
quarters of the troops sick.
General Ku'ui gave testimony to the
etlect that further resistance would
have been equivalent to the death of
the lcmanuler of the troops.
Lieutenant General Pando testified as
to his rcgietting that tho recommenda
tions made by him before leaving San
tiago had not beeu acted on, as Santiago
then had sufficient ammuaitiou, except
for the artillery. He disapproved tho
decisions of the generals at Havana,
who, he asserted, to succeed should
have reinforced Santiago.
General Blanco said he had never ad
vised the capitulation of Santiago, but
favored a strong resistance. The gov
ernment, he declared, had accepted the
terms of the United States without dis
cussion and when ho telegraphed to
Gentral Toral it was too late. San
tiago, he added, had tar from an insuf
ficient garrison.
Condemns Lack of Transport Service.
London, Aug. 2. Tho special artist
of The Daily Graphio of this city, now
in the Philippines, growled at the au
thorities who "forbid an artist the as
sistifjce which ho might provide for
himself by engaging servants to carry
tho lood tho military authorities de
cline tc supply even now on payment."
He condi mns the alleged neglect of the
transport service. Ho said in fin:
"You cauuot be taken by cart from Ma
nila to San Tomaso by road without
having to swim streams. But fcr a bit
ot single railway line the troops wonld
bo staivul on this hne of operations. As
it is, they aro but fed from hand to
mouth."
