The many "tips" which arc coming
in from men who are already settled in
our newly -acquired territory advising
the public not to go there from this
country has a possible double signifi
cance either the advisers know a good
thing when they haveit.or if they really
speak tho trnlli it does not certainly au
ger well for the benefit our country is to
receive. Those are however but two
sides of an important question.
Spain has taken her turn at trying to
ascertain her strength as compared with
the other nations of the earth and she
found out in three shcrt mouths that
her antiquated methods were no more
capable of coping with her active young
opponent than is the average College
Professor lit to fight lifes battles when
cast out into the world. Now lu r part
ner old France is on the verge of a dis
covery as astounding to her as was
Spain's discovery at Santiago and
Manila. Should France get mixed up
in the lair of the British Lion she will
never get out alive, but tdiu will be laid
in a shallow pauper's grave beside of
the one already dug for the Castillian
realm.
River Street is still the scene of many
high old limes, but some of the subjects
are somewhat glum over the departure
of their Queen who it is said has left
for fresh fields and pastures new. Some
of them are also mourning for the bag
of butternuts which did not arrive on
last Sunday's express. It is rumored
however that the chief of scouls will
try some placo tomorrow where wire
fences are not too numerous and where
thieves are allowed to break in and
steal with impunity. While they are
waiting for his return the time will bo
pleasantly taken up in getting acquaint
ed with the new "neighbors" who have
lately come amongst them with tho "bct
of references."
Governor Smith had considerable to
say in his message about good roads,
and some of his ideas were not half bad
cither. It is a lamentable fact that
Vermont has some of the worst? loads
in the country. Tho five per cent lax
which is redistributed among the dif
ferent towns is supposed to go into per
manent improvements, but when some
of these all wise road commissioners of
back towns, who think they know all
about road building, get hold of their
towns share they proceed to lay it out
according to their own peculiar ideas
and not one dollar in ten is expended
so as to give any lasting benefit. The
wise lawmakers now in session should
make some provisions that will insure
permanent improvements to our high
ways, We have already spent money
enough to have good roads, but it has
been tpent in haphazare fashion, by
men who were in no way fitted to have
charge of its expenditure.

attorney of New York. The request be
nii m inted, he said he would affirm
rather than be sworn. Me declined to
stand up for t h in ceremony, saying: "I
will sit. 1 don't have to stand up." No
objection was made on the part of the
commission, and the testimony proceed
ed. Dr. Seaman said ho had never seen
any military service before the begin
ning of the present war, but he had
studied at Princeton and afterward in
London. Berlin and Paris. After Join
ing the service and before going to Por
to Rico he was stationed with his regi
ment at Camp Townsend. There his
requisitions were promptly filled, and
no regiment went to the front better

ness going out. He had left Porto Rico
on the 20th of September. The regiment
had enjoyed better health In Porto Rico
than had been anticipated, and there
were only two deaths in the command
during the stay there up to the time of
his departure. A. regimental hospital
was established, and there was never at
any time a deficiency in medical sup
plies. The same was nlso true of the tentage
and the ambulance supplies furnished
by the quartermasters' department. The
commissary department had also fur
nished sufficient army rations, but he
complained of them us being unsuita
ble for nn army in the tropics. "It is
the same ration used in the lake re
gions when the mercury is 40 degrees
below zero. . It is not suitable, and the
men do not want it," he said. He added
that the men were at lirst denied the
right to commute their rations, and the
men came to him by hundreds com
plaining of the deprivation of this right.
He complained especially of the short
age of rice and declared that officers In
sisted the men should take more fresh
meat than they der-lrrd.
Sick Foil on Arm,' Kntloim.
He said the sick were fed only with
the army rations. He failed to secure
any change of diet for his patients,
notwithstanding he made frequent de
mands upon the quartermaster of the
regiment and upon the surgeon of the
corps. I'e was told that no other food
was i;-ued to any regiment In that
service and that it would lie of no use
to make a formal requisition In writing.
However, ths men in the hospital did
not suffer, because the Red Crosa fur
nished the desired assistance.
Dr. Seaman said that he had been In
charge of 200 convalescents on the Oh
davn returning from Ponce. The ship
was supplied with army travel rations,
which, while plentiful and good of the
kind, were not suitable to invalids. He
refused to give this food to his patients
and appealed for a different variety to
the Red Cross and National Aid society
and had been supplied by them with
what he desired. As a consequence all
the patients, with one exception, gained
weight and strength during the voyage.
He made no formal requisition to the
government authorities for different ra
tions because he was told he could get
only the regular rations and because of
the willingness of the lied Cross to fur
nish what he considered better food.
When Governor Reaver pressed the wit
ness to explain why there was no requi
sition made for condensed milk and tea,
he replied that Chief Surgeon Snowden
had told him they could not be had.
Returning to his story In Porto Rico,
Dr. Seaman said there had been univer
sal complaint at the hospitals of a de
ficiency of suitable supplies. There were
times when the lied Cross society did
not have these. While there was no
shortage of the legular rations, he
thought many men had sufered for
want of pioper food. He had been told
repeatedly that the GO cents a day ra
tion for the sick could not be furnished
in I'orto Rico. It was not even supplied
to the general military hospital.
Dr. Conner urged Dr. Seaman for a
statement us to whether he had made
a formal written requisition for the
comimitat ion of supplies by the commis
sary department. 'I'he la ter replied he
had not done so, but insisted that his
reason for this failure was found In the
fait that he was constantly intwrned
that no such exchange could be made.
He said lie had only six hours in which
to supply the Obdam, and he had se.
cured from the commissary only the
regular travel rations, but he had mads

no formal demand for other suitable
foods for the sick. He said In. reply to
a question that he did not know that
the commissary at Ponce had on hand
(1500.000 or any other sum- for supply
ing delicacies to the sick. He only knew
that they were nt)t supplied.
BRADFORD'S VIEWS.
lie llcnHe I'lillliiplnr (tueatlon
With Unr Commlaalonrra.
Paris, Oct. 15. Commander Bradford,
V. S. N., who has arrived here from
Washington, has been examined by the
members of the United States peace
commission relative to the conditions
prevailing and the main features of In
terest in the Philippine Islands, with
which the commander is well acquaint
ed. The fifth Joint session of the two
commissions was convened at 2 o'clock.
It may be said that the first, second
and third meetings scarcely penetrated
the surface of any protocol point, and
less still the marrow. Last Tuesday,
however, marked the Spanish present
ment regarding the Cuban debt, which
has, during recess, brought the Ameri
cans to serious preparation, adjustment
of their diplomatic forces and to the
formulation of a plan upon which they
may ultimately stand In relation to tha
Cuban phase of their mission here.
It is not unlikely that since Tues
day's meeting the Americans, who have
been exceedingly busy, have determined
upon an attitude toward the Spanish
proposition that the United States as
sume the Cuban debt In whole or In
part and that it has been reduced to
writing for presentation to the Span
iards at the present session, stating
the American view broadly as to what
is the Cuban debt, what proportion is
fairly chargeable to the island as legal
and beneficial thereto and the propor
tion to be charged to Srtln as benefi
ciary of the so called CulAn debt.
A hasty conclusion, however, should
not be drawn from the fact of this
careful weighing of the Spanish propo
sition by the Americans that they ac
cept either alternative classification of
the Cuban obligation, but rather that
they are acting on a line and purpose
to meet every point raised as ex
haustively as presented. They have
thoroughly traversed the Cuban debt
views and the proposals submitted In
writing by the Spaniards on Tuesday.
The Americans,, therefore, undoubtedly
submitted In writing their return for
the Fmn'sh presentment, and there will
be cither nn oral discussion or a writ
ten interchange of views at the next
meeting.
StoriPM Aliont Gnrela Denied.
Havana, Oct. 15. The ald-de-camp
and secretary of General Calixto Gar
cia. Cosme de la Torrlente, is quoted in
an interview as saying that the general
has not accepted any post from General
Lawton or the other American officials,
that It is not true he is making a tour
of the eastern part of Cuba advising
the disbanding of the Cuban army and
that there is no truth in the statement
that Garcia Is going to the United
States for the purpose of endeavoring
to raise a loan, which he has no author
ity to do. The aid-de-camp and secre
tary further asserted that Garcia has
not denied the legality of the actual
revolutionary government of Cuba, nor
has he accepted the supremacy of the
United States; but, it appears, Garcia
has unofficially expressed the opinion
that the present Cuban government,
owing to lack of numbers and person
nel, could not be considered legal, as a
quorum was impossible, and therefore
its actions are unconstitutional.
Will Admit Tobacco Free.
Washington, Oct. 15. Assistant Sec
retary Powell of the treasury depart
ment has consented to the admission
free of duty into Santiago of 100,000
pounds of Cuban tobacco in the pos
session of General Franco Sanchez,
having charge of the insurgent army
at Mayarl. This is a lot of "booty" to
bacco, and the proceeds of the sale will
be expended for the benefit of the Cu
ban army, which needs supplies of
clothing and subsistence. The question
was referred to the war department by
General Lawton and In turn sent to the
treasury department for Its recommen
dation. Stnff Ollloprn Will Be Retained.
Washington, Oct. 15. It Is not proba
ble that there will be a muster out of
any number of staff officers to corre
spond to the number of general officers
which were included in the discharge
order a few days ago. The department
finds, in view of the fact that a number
of officers have resigned or been honor
ably discharged, that the demand for
staff officers in different places makes
it almost Impossible to dispense with
the services of many more at present.
A Itevolt Asm In at Agnlnnldo.
Manila, Oct. 15. A rumor here says
that Macabulos, chief of the five north
ern provinces of the Philippine islands,
has rebelled against Aguinaldo and
that hard fighting has already taken
place between the opposing factions.
It is also reported - here that General
Rios, the Spanish commander at Hollo,
has sent emissaries from that place to
undermine Aguinaldo's Influence and
induce the natives to demand that
Spain retain the Philippine islands.
General Miles' Pinna.
Omaha, Oct. 15. After his return to
the Millard from the exposition, Gen
eral Miles was asked what his future
plans were, whether he proposed going
to Leech Lake, Minn., to quell the In
dian troubles there, or If he would re
sume operations in Porto Rico and
Cuba. His reply was: "Neither. I ex
pect to go to St. Paul, Rock Island and
the peace Jubilee at Chicago, and then
return to Washington."

What tbe l're 8n'.
Paris, Oct. 15. It Is announced here
that a military plot against the gov
ernment has been discovered. The
Rappel, Aurore and Petite Republlque
Francaise publish almost Identical sta
rles on the subject. It appears that the
plot was discovered by a general hold
ing an Important position. The plotters
were to have taken action on Saturday,
during the absence of the minister of
war, General Chanoine. It further ap
pears that when the government was
warned of the plot the ministers were
not surprised, having already obtained
information regarding the conspiracy.
The Matin says the plot was not In
favor of one of the pretenders to the
throne of France, who has been talked
about for some time, but was only for
the purpose of changing certain offi
cials of the government without torch
ing the president. The premier, M.
Brlsson, was among those who were
not surprised when notified of the plot.
He promised to take action In the mat
ter. The government officials here refuse
to furnish any Information regarding
the discovery of the plot against the
government, but It Is rumored that the
conspiracy involved Prince Louis Bona
parte, who is a colonel of Russian
lancers and in whose favor his elder
brother, Prince Victor Bonaparte, re
cently resigned the leadership of the
Imperialist party. It is added that cer
tain political personages handed the
premier important documents, includ
ing a cipher dispatch, compromising
certain military men. The minister of
war has canceled his Intended absence
from Paris.
An London Seen It.
A dispatch from London says: The
situation in Paris Is regarded In well
Informed quarters here as being more
serious than at any time since the
commune. The St. James Gazette says:
"A military revolution, however
peaceful, which replaces the Brlsson
cabinet with the nominees of the gen
erals would Imperii the relations be
tween England and France almost to
the breaking point. The semiofficial
and partly inspired Paris papers are
still pretending that negotiations are
proceeding between the two govern
ments, and France believes It, although
everybody In England knows the state
ment to be ridiculous. Even supposing
Major Marehand is unconditionally
withdrawn from Fashoda, the difficul
ties with France will in no way end.
Behind it lies the whole question of the
Iiahr el Ghazal, the richest prize in the
Sudan."
The Politique Coloniale publishes a
dispatch from the Ivory coast, Upper
Guinea, saying that the French arms
have received a serious check. A col
umn of Tirailleurs, which had been
dispatched to suppress a rising of the
Bourbourys, was forced to retreat, with
a loss of seven killed and ten wounded.
The Bourbourys, the dispatch says, are
preparing to march upon Jacquesvllle,
where a number of . French trading
posts have been established.
The railroad workers' union has
posted placards ordering a strike, urg
ing the strikers to refrain from violence
and informing the public that if dan
ger threatens the country, the strikers
will immediately return to their posts.
Thi.s strike Includes the Algerian prov
inces. But, In spite of the placarding, the
threatened general strike did not take
place. The workmen stopped to read
the placards announcing the strike, but
there was no disorder. Nearly all the
laborers are at work, and the railroad
service is uninterrupted, the railroad
men having apparently ignored the de
cision of the committee representing
them.
Mnrelinnd's Heport In Khartum.
Cairo. Egypt, Oct. 15. A steamer hav

French force under command of Major
Marehand. now nt Fashoda, on the Nile,
has arrived nt Khartum. This officer
Is the bearer of the report sent for by
the French minister for foreign affairs,
M. Delcnsse, by courtesy of the British
government over the Anglo-Egyptian
lines of communication. It Is presumed
the officer will proceed to Cairo In order
to be able to use the official cipher of
the French consulate here for transmitt
ing the report to Paris.
Xntlonnl Council of Women to Meet.
Omaha. Oct. 15. The National Coun
cil of Women of the United States will

of the women's department of theTrans
niisslssippi International exposition. The
executive committee will meet, the
morning of the 24th, and the first open

day when the delegates will be wel
comed, the acknowledgment being made
by May Wright Sewall, president of the
National Council.
Sinter of the llednionda Dead.
New York, Oct. 15. A personal letter
from Dublin announces the death of
Mrs. Dora Howard at St. Savin, France.
Mrs. Howard was the sister of Mr.
John Redmond, M. P., and Mr. William
Redmond, M. P., and a daughter of the
late Mr. W. A. Redmond, M. P. for
Wexford. Mrs. Howard and her late
husband were well known In New TorK
and on the Pacific coast, where they
had a number of relatives.

of Locomotive Firemen, who was ap
pointed a member of the national labor
commission by President McKlnley, has
resigned the commlssionershlp In order
to retain his position with the brother
hood Snow In Chicago.
Chi "ftso, Oct. 15. Snow fell In this
city for over an hour. It was the first
this season and the earliest in 26 years.
A gale accompanied the snowfall, mak
ing navigation on Lake Michigan im
possible. The Need of Alaska,
San Francisco, Oct. 15. Thomas New
ell, a prominent citizen of Boston, who
has Just returned from Alaska, where
he has spent four months annually for
the last 13 years, says that the district
should have a representative in con
gress and should have the protection of
adequate land laws. He also thinks
that the prohibitory liquor law original,
ly enforced to protect the Indians, but
now possible of evasion with a great
population of white men and thousands
of miles of unguarded seacoast, should
be replaced by high license producing
revenue sufficient to pay many of the
expenses of the territory.
GUABDING NEGB0ES.
Colored Miner From Alabama Now
I'nder Police Protection.
Rnrlna-flpld. Ills.. Oct. 15. All of the
negro miners from Alabama who came
to work in "the Chlcago-Virden coal
onmnnnv'a mines nt Vlrden. with the
exception of a few who went north on
the train from Springfield, are in Al
len's hall, the headquarters of the local
miners' union in this city. Policem
are guarding the hall.
Mayor Wheeler had the streets clear
ed of miners for several blocks from the
hall. The negroes number 108. It was
understood that the negroes would be
shipped back to Alabama, but It was
not done.
Adjutant General Reece states that
the Federation of Miners has refused
to have anything to do with the trans
portation of negroes from here to their
homes, that the state has no authority
to send them away and that the au
thorities are in a quandary.
The funeral of Edward Walsh, one of
the Springfield miners killed at Vlrden,
has occurred. In order to prevent any
demonstration against the negroes by
the miners Troop B of Bloomlngton
and Troop D of Springfield, First Illi
nois cavalry, and Company F of the
Sons of Veterans, MacComb, were re
tained here.
Vlrden Fnll of Troopa.
Virden, Ills., Oct. 15. Colonel Young's
Illinois cavalry has relieved Battery B
of guard duty In the city. Colonel
Young is ranking officer and will be In
command of all troops here, but will
not assume his duties until he has look
ed the ground over and held a consulta
tion with the mine officials and Cap
tains Craig and Fevler, who have been
in command since troops were first or
dered here. All trains with freight or
passengers stopping here are carefully
searched for negroes. Two hundred
members of the First cavalry and Third
infantry, under command of Colonel
Young, have arrived, and 175 more are
expected. These, with the 128 men la
the Galcsburg battery and Elgin com
pany of the Sons of Vetefens, will give
Colonel Young a force of over 500 men.
The arrival of Colonel Young's com
mand has caused a feeling among the
strikers that the negroes will be kept
out at all hazards. This town presents
a most military aspect. Soldiers are
met everywhere, even out In the most
lonesome streets on the outskirts of the
town. Some of the militiamen were in
anything but a happy frame of mind, as
they hud been on duty nearly 12 hours
without anything to eat.
To Tnke Negroes to Pann.
Pana, Ills., Oct. 15. It Is expected in
mining circles here that the negroes
who failed to land at Virden are to be
brought to Pana. In that case blood
shed will likely follow. The militia and
miners here are being posted hourly on
every move made at Vlrden.
Will Sail I'nder Oar Flag.
Tacnma, Oct. 15. It Is stated on good
authority that the Northern Pacific
Steamship company Is arranging to put
under the American flag six British
steamers which it is operating to China
and Japan from this city. These steam
ers include the transport Arizona, which
was sold to the government last July;
the Tacoma, Olympla, Columbia and Ar
gyle. It Is believed that the Arizona
will he transferred back to the Northern
Pacific at Hongkong when the govern
ment no longer needs her.
