WASHINGTON. Nov. 14. The Washing-
ion I'ost says thai the war tax will nol bo
abolished nt the coming short session of
COIIRHSS thai there will be no revision of
the tariff whatever. H bases ihla announce
ment ujon the posllUe statement made to
day by Chairman Dlngley of the wn > s and
means committee , who , In an Interview In
the Test , Eaye :
"The gotrrnmcnt will need for some time
all the revenue produced by the war taxes.
During the month of October the war ex
penditures exceeded the war rexenup by
some $14,000,000. nnd this month they will
bo 110,000,000 In excess. This being the
case there will be no changes , at least this
fiscal year. The war revenue act will con
tinue in force nnd unchanged , except , per
haps , In a few minor administrative fea
tures , for al least n year longer.
"It Is hardly necessary to add , " continued
Mr. Dlngley , "tliat there will bo no revision
of the tariff , although I have seen some
statements to the effect that such a re
vision is contemplated. The session Is
limited to three months , " he * said , "and
that bhort period will be mainly occupied In
pnsilng npproprlallon bills"In eriacllng now
laws for the regular army , and deciding
upm ( the leglslallon necessary fortho , gov
ernment of Hawaii. In addition to these
Important .matters the .usual number of
.routine mailers will arise. From the pres
ent outlook the session will bo well under
way before Ihe treaty of peace with Spain
viill be laid before the senate , nnd the rati
fication of that document may not be ac
complished long before the 4th of March
nrrlvra. "
"Will that necessitate an extra session ? "
"It la. of course , Impossible , " said Mr.
Dlngley , "lo know what will arise between
the 1st of December and the 4th of next
March , but so far as the present outlook can
form a basis for Judgment I would saythat no
extra session will be necessary or desirable
unices srmo now question should arise. In
the first place , we shall not know , until
the treaty of peace has been ratified , what
new possessions we are to have and what
legislation Is necessary for them , nnd oven
then we will be In no position to act Intelli
gently.
"I think thai the military ndmlnlslra-
tlon ought to be continued for at least a
year longer. Military administration means
the maintenance of order , tbo establishment
of sr.nitnry regulations , the giving of as-
slslanco to those who may need It. It will
bring order out of chaos and afford us tlmo
to determine the wisest legislation. Tlmo
alwdjs enlightens , nnd certainly when con
gress meets at Its regular session In De
cember of next year wo will be much better
rquippcd * to consider the proper method of
dealing with our now possessions.
"For my part , " added Mr. Dlngley. "I
hopti that the territory to bo added will be
no larger than Is absolutely necessary. I
realize that In pome cases It may be easier
to hold than It would be to let go , but at the
same tlmo I hope that the treaty , when It
U presented to tbo senate , will provide for
the acquisition ot a minimum amount of
territory. "

WASHINGTON , Nov. 14. The , State do-
Vartmcnt is making strong efforts to eecure ,
the release ot the American , Temple , who
IB nqw In a Mexican jalt on the charge ot
murder committed In the United States , and
it baa instruclcd Powell Clayton , United
States minister to Mexico , lo address himself
Directly to tbo Mexican foreign office on
the subject. The principle Involved In the
'case is regarded u of Iho highest Impor-
'tance , for If Temple is held for trial by the
( Moxlcan authorities U will amount to an
dmsslon | on the part of the United States
of the 'right of Mexico to exercise extra
territorial Jurisdiction over American soil.

.in tbo celebrated Cutting case , which came
near causing a breach ot friendly relations.
nd It arose again in the more recent case
ot Leonardo Pacheco. Cutting was released
by the Mexican government only after trial.
achcco was released , but not on demand ot
'
he government , and in no case hae tbe
Mexican government surrendered Its view
that it has Iho right to try a person In Mexico

States. Cutting was in jail for several
months and Pacheco for Ino yars.

much as I di-J. The Indications were prob
ably more marked to ran than to my prede

"but jou can't make a prison of a camp. "
Continuing , he said 'the town was run "wide

In their camps under the circumstances.
General Drccklnrldge said there was such a

NEW YORK , Nov. 14. A speclM from
A'sbury Park , N. J. . says : A. L. Manley ,
editor 'of the WIlnilnKlon , ( N. C. ) Record ,
whcac offlco wns destroyed by white citizens
on Thursday , Is now In Anbury I'nrk llh
hla brothcr-ln-law , Hcv. L. N. Giles. He
fled from Wilmington to escape probable
lynching nt the hands of the Jnob which
bad sv > orn to have his life. It was through
an editorial In the Uccord that the recent
rioting In Wilmington and the attendant
lass of life came about. When seen Manley
said that whiles ho was perfectly willing to
tell Iho fltory of hla troubles as tar as he
himself wa concerned , there were aomo of
the features of the cnso he could not make
public at present , as the safety of others
might be affected. Mnnley said thai the
trouble nil grew out of the fact that the
much-talked-of editorial In the llecord had
born misquoted by the press of North Carolina
lina nnd only parts of It had been re
printed with cdltorlaln tending to Inflamu
the whites of the south. This , he said , baa
been done to try to scare the white voters
for political effect. He did not seem to
think that the editors of .tho papers which
started the blaze of riot realized the harm
which would follow the articles printed In
their papers.
I The editorial which appeared In the
1 Record , Manley said , was called forth by a
speech made by Mrs. Kelton before the
Agricultural society of Tybeo Island , Ga. ,
early In August. During her speech Mrs.
Kelton said that money which was collected
for foreign missions could be spent to a
better advantage at homo In educating young
white girls. She said that owing to the
carelessness of poor white men of the south
their girls are left victims of colored men.
I
Then she spoke , according to Manley's stale.
merit , of ihe low moral standing of the
colored race. He says she advocated lynch
ing as the only means of eradicating these
evils. Manley's editorial In the Record .was
a reply to Mrs. Felton'ft speech. . This
editorial Inflamed a large portion of North
Carolina. Manley a ays ho did not Intend
to attack any class or race , but simply
wrote as he did to defend the defamed
colored man.
Cnniic of tlio Trouble.
In this editorial Manley said : "Poor
whlto men are careless In the matter cf
protecting their women , especially on the
farms. They are careless of their conduct
toward them and our experience among poor
white people In the country leaches us that
women of that race are not more particular
In ihe matter of clandestine meetings with
colored men than are the white men with
colored women. Meetings of this kind go oi >
for some tlmo , until Iho momentary In
fatuation wears off or the boldness , brings
attention to them and then the man Is
lynched.
The very long editorial from which the
above is taken was published on August 18.
Manley says that for nearly a week after it
was printed nothing was said to htm about
It by the residents of Wlfmlngtofa or vicin
ity , and his relations with them were of the
usual friendly nature until the white press
took up the matter nearly a week liter.
From that time until now they had. attacked
htm and his paper In every conceftbblc ) way
until at fast he was compelled 'to Ike f'dr fa la
life.
life.When
When asked as to the present situation at
Wilmington , Manley said that as he had
been absent for several days he would rather
not bo quoted as expressing nn opinion on
that subject. When naked if he Intended "to
return to North Carolina , ho replied 'that
was another question which ho could not
answer nt present. There were facls con
nected with that part of the story which
might effect others and ho thought It would
bo best not to say anything as to his future
prospects. Manley would not tell how much
his losses were at the hands of the mob. All
ho would say was that he had lost every
thing ho owned In Iho world. Ho had carried
an insurance on his property , but ho said
that there was no clause In the policy which

OMAHA , Nov. 14. To the Sporting Editor
of The Dee : While walchlng the toot ball
game between Omaha nnd Lincoln High
schools last Saturday , and seeing such a
fine article being put up by the boys to a
lltlle knot of spectators , It occurred to mp
thai Omaha people muit have very little
Interest In really good sport , as well no ver >
llttlo Inclination lo encourage their boys In
their endeavor to hold their llille alhlellc
association together. Such a game as was
played last Saturday oughl lo have drawn
at least a crowd of 2.000 people , yet there
were few more than that many hundred.
Why can't our people get up a llttlo en-
thuslasm and give the boys a show ? Therb
Is to be a game next Saturday bclween
Omaha and Council Bluffs nnd II promises
to be ap. exciting contest and ono upon
which depends the championship of thb
league. If our people have an Idea tutus
games are tame , amateur affairs , they -want
to put tbe Idea aside , for , as one gentleman
remarked last Saturday , "Such foot ball u *
thle ought to draw a good big crowd ;
What's the matter with Omaha peoploT"
Should be glad If you try and stir up thb
people a little. FOOTBALUST.
Mr. Footballlst propounds a nuory tha |
vlll puzzle 11 weightier cranium than that
) t tbe sporting editor , and the latter Is
-nrrylng around so much brains that h *
a becoming eloop-shouldered. On various
mil divers occasions The Dee and other
icwspapers of. the clly have pointed out the
excellence of corning sporting and athletic
events and have urged the populace to lend
their support. On occasions the sporting
editor1 has transformed himself Into n com
mittee of ono to drum up a crowd. Ills au
dience , In many cases , however , has received
the assurances of the merits of an nthlcilc
performance wllh the sheepish irin of a
freshly buncoed ilubo from Ihe agricultural
precincts. Every one seems to bo afraid
that he will not get his tnonoy's worth and
will bo handed n gola brick or a salchvl
of Mwdust In return for his two-bit pltce.
For example , Iho Omaha High school foot
ball team has been pulling up an
excellent article of fool ball over
slnco It ' mastered thn rudiments
of the game. The papers have chronicled
this fact , and also when the team has
slumped that fact has bcrn told. Yet people
seem to believe lhat Ihe sporting depart
ments -of the papers arc laying for n ch-inro
to throw a con into them and shy clear of
snorting events a they would of backing a
rkntc against a ntnke horfo. In thin respect
Omaha stands In n distinctively unique posi
tion. In Denver , Kansas City , St. Pauf , Min
neapolis and even St. Joe athletic teams of
various kinds nre supported , but not so with
Omaha. The'Hlgh ' school ought certainly be
backed In its effort to keep nmnteUr sport
allvo In thd ! city , whelhcr It does well or
not , but the support ought to be certain

WASHINGTON , Nov. 14. The report ol
Charles P. Kagan , commissary of subsUtcnco
of the army , has been submitted to the
secretary of war. H shows nu expenditure
of $6,008,715 , with n balance of t:0V2o8.i to
the credit of the bureau. After detailing
conditions of the' commissary department
and Its organization lor the war with bpaln ,
General Kagnn conns to the Santiago cam
paign , ot which ho says :
A very serious freight blockade at and In
thu neighborhood of 'iiuupa In May and June ,
1SDS , was caused by the celerity whh which
the troops and their supplies were concen
trated nt that ulaco In preparation for the
invasion ot the island cf Cuba. This block
ade was a matter ot grave concern to the
subsistence derailment , and It was only
after thu mo.it peremptory orders of the
commissary general cf subslslcncu lo unload
the cars ana lo hlro warehouses , It neccs-
eury , thiit the ofllcers of the dcpartmenl on
the spa were enabled , with unflagging zeal
and untiring euuigy , lo to lar extricate the
department as to permit the taking by the
Fltth army corps , when it sailed on June
14 , a supply of rations sufllclenl to last the
command of 1C.COO enlisted men for four
months , and the sending on Juno 2G , 27 nud
28 if further supplies.
After giving in detail what supplies were
sent to Cuba , General Eagau says :
It will thus be seen that all due diligence
was used by the commissary general of sub
sistence In placing subsistence stores within
reach of the troops operating against San
tiago. Upon landing in Cuba these stores
of the expedition were subject to the orders
of the general commanding , with paramount
control of the military operations in the
country.
After quoting a number of official orders ,
the general says :
It Is evident from the foregoing state
ments thai the supplies of subsistence stores
of the army in Cuba l.avo been at all times
In excess of Immediate needs. Decides being
available for our own troops they afforded
relief to the Cuban nimv and to the destitute
population which abandoned the clly of San
tiago when preparations for Its destruction
had been made. The official returns from
Cuba , showing In detail the Issues made lo
thcso several classes of persons and others
contemplated by law , have not yet been re
ceived nnd there Is not In this office any
Information throwing llghl on the subject of
the provisioning of the transports which
brought the army back to Montauk Point
further than there was an abundance of
subsistence in Santlneo nnd vicinity.
A considerable portion of the report Is
devoted to what was done at Montauk Point ,
the Important features being published at
the time the Fifth army corps was there.
There are also details of the furnishing ot
supplies at Chlckamauga nnd other camps ,
as well as for the Philippine and Porto Ulco
expeditions.

Relieved of 9200 nt 1'lntol'N
Point.
A daring1 holdup occurred shortly after
midnight at the corner of Twenly-fourlh and
M streets in South Omaha. A man named
Draggman , who is employed In Armour's
packing establishment , while on his wn >
home , was stopped by two men near the
corner and was commanded to throw up
his''hands. ' < 'Aa the men were masked aha
leveled pistols at his head Draggman lost
no tlmo In complying1 with their request
and the robbers went through his pockets ,
securing $200. Continuing1 lo point the re
volver at Draggman's head they told him
to move along down the street and make
no outcry. They then made their escape In
the dark. The holdup was immediately re
ported to the police and as Draggmau was
able to give accurate descriptions of thu
loubcrd the police believe they will not belong
long In catching them. They nre thought
to bo employes of the same packing h use
and probably knew that Draggman carried
money with him.
CHARMING IIIGHWAYWOMA * .
Ail Denutlful nnd Courtcoux n Itolihcr
nx Une Conld Wlnli.
The ancient and erstwhile respcctablo
guild of highwaymen , says a St. Petersbuig
letter , sill ! flourishes in Ihe Caucasus , de-
snltc the fitful efforts of Cossacks and Clr-
rnwilans to Inaugurate a reign relative of
nrace In that wIM and mountainous country.
The Inhabitants arc resigned to their lot ,
however , nnd merely shed a vala tear or
aim a rifle bullet or two at the picturesquely
rtrcFsed ruffians who lift their cattle or take
their Icwelrv. Wearisome Journeys are also
becoming less and less popular , and long
nnd fervent are the prayers offered up at
the outset as a preservative against the
dangers of the road. The fad which has
changed all this , and produced a thrill of
sensation throughout the Caucasus , Is the
knowledge that the highwayman's rife Is at-
tnndcd wllh such charms and delights as to
nrove attractive to the fair and feeble sex ,
nnd even Irresistible to some of Its moro ad
venturous members. Thla might well Bccra
Incredible wcro It not that a favorably
known ladv named Darbara Danellz. , who
Huddenlv disappeared some ten years ago
from the village of Dandza , In the govern
ment of Kutals , has now been Idenllfied as
thn leader ot a band of Iho most polite , gen-
tin and successful bandits who ever turned
the ciar'fl highway Into a no-thoroughfare.
The ladv has. I say , been Identified , but not
before a law court , for she Is etlir very
much at large and snaps her fingers at Cos- |
Backs , governments and police , with Iho i
same confidence In her own good luck which |
hia accompanied her ever since she look to |
the mountains
Not that the course of her srrnngo love
of adventure has always run smooth. Bar
bara , who Is now 25 years old and pos
sesses a very sympathetic face nnd figure ,
lesplte her calling , has had downs as well
as ups In her curious career , some of which
would keep a conlempornry novellsl cm-
ployed for n twelvemonth. Four or five
tlnica , for Instance , the lady was surprised
or belraycd and nrresled. Uul her luck
'lover left her. Once her prison door It was
a manor house was opened nl nlghr , If not
by an angel of the Lord , at least by a friend
of the lady , whereupon she rose up nnd
walked away before her accusers could
bring her lo trial. Another time her Jailer
set her free and went with her to the
mountains , where he Is now one of the most
fearless daredevils of her gang. The third
tlmo thai Darbara found herself in durnuco
vile nothing happened to help her and she
was duly sent ) for trial. Her Jailer would
probably hnvo fallen In love with her had ho
known thnt his sympathetic prisoner be
longed to the feminine sex. Hut , ns Mmo.
Danclln has Invariably worn the picturesque
costume of a male Georgian ever slnco the
took to Ihe hills , Ihe Janitor ot the Jnll cn-
tertnlned nn angel unawares and conscien
tiously looked alter her. The vrlnl , tluto-
fore , duly cnme on nnd owing to some cu
rious conflict of evidence -Uarbarn duly sol
oil. whereupon Bhe retuined to her lawless
subjects mid her exciting mode of life.
This curious hlgliwnywoman Is ono of tbe
moss artistic riders In n country which has
produced Iho liest human subslllulo for
Centaurs that the world has jet seen. She
will Jump anything. She Is nlso nn excel
lent shot nnd cnn hit thu edgeof n Russian
bllver coin , smaller than our sixpence , with
a rllle bullet al a distance which xouU
make ihe eyes of Dlsley candidates start
from their sockets were I to mention It.
The number of men , nblu-bodied , arrong-
armed men , whom Hnrbnra slnglc-hiU'led
( she loves to "work" alone ) slopped on
Iho highway nnd robbed la legion. AnJ , te
It remembered , not unarmed men only.
Many of these lords of creation not only
possessed , but used , their weapons , too , rs
curlaln marks on Mine. Dnnelta's iirms and
body prove bejond n doubt. Uut Iho moral
and refining Influence of this fearless worn in
on the hitherto cruel bands of Caucasian
highwaymen is among the most cloiiucnt
proofs of Iho superiority of women In all
walks of life. Ik'loic llarbura took to the
hills travelers used to be rudely knoc'icil
on the head before they knew where they
wcro and If they ventured to speak or squuaX
on coming to their senses hnd their hands
or heads cut off altogether and werci gen
erally dealt with ns It utterly do\otd of
iicives , sensation and self-respect.
Today everything Is different. Blood Is
fipldom shed , and never 'unnecessarily. ' If
your pleasuic or duty takes you along the
roads of the wild districts of Kutals , you
are polllcly stopped at a very convenient
spot by a party no more numc.ous than
vour own. You find a well drctaed 'gcnllo-
inan * of refined manners , on a splcnd.d
charger , who rides gallanlly up , raises 'hie *
hat , and In n tow poi'lte words , pronounced
In n most Insinuating voice , explains that
to 'his' regret circumstances beyond h.s
control render it necessary that ho ahould
i deprive you of your money , horse and valu-
' nblcs. but thai ho will do so with as l.ttlo
discomfort to yourself as possible. Would
\ou kindly turn out your pockets and take
off coat and vest ? When It la all over and
done the 'gentleman * requests jou to remain
nn the spot for nn hour or so until he and
his friends have had lime enough to get
clear awav. and he adds that should you
dtaoboy ono of his men has orders to blow
vour brains oul. which he sincerely begs
vou not to have carried out. You wait Im
patiently for Iho hour lo elapc. Agon seem
to have passed away since your properly
left you : but the white handkerchief which
was to be hoisted as a signal that you
might 'inovo on' has not yet appeared and
vou are beginning to debate with yourself
i whclhcr you had not better take to jour
bppls and risk the consequences , when all
i at once the 'gentleman' on the prancing
charger rides up , raises 'his' hat , and eayu :
i "I'm eo sorry , sir. lo cause you still further
discomfort ; but I leave It to yourself to Judge
whether I can do olherwlso. You see Ihoae
travelers away there on the other end of
lhat road ? Well , we thought we might as
wcl ? do business with them while they nnd
wo are here. We may never meet again
In this world. And It would never do for
vou to leave us In the lurch nt such n crit
ical moment. I must ask you , therefore ,
to wait here until the business Is trars-
aclcd : and then , I promise you , I will do
i everylhlng lo furlher you on your Journey
1 home. Is there nnylhlng I can offer jou
meanwhile to shorten the tlmo ? A pack of
rarde. a bottle of wine , or * ? Only
a dron of wine ? Certainly , I will tell ono
ro } mv * men to bring you a bottle ina mo
ment" and gracefully touching his hat the
highwayman Is oft , you are provided with
good wine and wllh the spcctacfe of a neal
highway robbery softened and refined by
nweet female Influences , nnd nn hour or two
later you part politely with your captor ,
who wishes you godspeed on the waj' .
The polite highwayman Is , of course , Dar
bara Danella , and her example lias proved
positively Infectious. Highway robberUs
nra now almost bloodless in the Caucasus ,
and what Is more , as painlessly , quickly
and comfortably effected as the nature ot
tbe operation permits. They have also in
creased In number , tor people are moro
rnrekfiR now. because their lives nre no
longer In danger as of j'orc. Of course ,
things assume a very different aspt-jt wbcn
the Cossacks or the police take It Into
thcli heads to appear In force. Last year ,
for instance , the police Inspector , Eristoff ,
dashed off to the hills , armed to the teeth ,
and accompanied by three ntlcndanls , ev-
necllne to come back with the bandits
hound. The funeral of the inspector did not
take place for nearly a week afterward , al
though the one surviving atlendant brought
nowa of the details of his chief and the
other members of the expedition two days
after It had Bet out.
Darbara Danella Is a Georgian and her
braulv. Ihereforo. may be more easily
Imagined than described. She Is very popu
lar among her own people , whom she sel
dom attacks In person. Poor travelers
never have anything to fear from Barbara ,
who Is extremely charitable and kind.
KF\V TIIINC1S IN CHINA.
Reviving the Deniitlfnl Tea 8et of
Colonial Time * .
The colonial tea set , which takes every
china-loving woman's heart by storm , has
a creamy ground and rich gold decoratlona
picked out very delicately with color. It
la warranted true to name , the very moral
and pattern ot the tea Bets ireaaured by
the first colonial dames. Cups to match
are lightly fluted , slightly flaring and of
true eggshell thinness.
The candlestick , with shield In shape of
a garden chair , needs no word to emphasize
Ha excellent convenience. Within it , the
candle cannot possibly , as tbo Scotch say ,
"sweat" over things then , too , the light
Is sheltered from draughts In carrying or
may bo so placed as to bo shielded away
from sleeping eyes. Hcst of all the candle
stick Is a thing of beauty , well worthy a
leading place among the ornament * of my
lady's chamber.
