H.e litest dispatches, however, are fcoie i i than the previous but the president wishes to have fcrni positive results before making tL'ui public. that can be learned definitely them is that direct overtures A I aco have been, made to General (j 1 1 Agninaldo and some of his il lenders.

American soldiers have been killed by thouBandsIon American soil'by such agencies as embalmed beef and scandalous neglect of elementary sanitation.

As the head, so we expect the subordinates to be. They were o'oosen without regard to fitness bnt with every regard to political service. Naturally they act as the politicians they are, rather than as soldiers and administrators, which they are not. The new imperial policy of the United States is thus discredited by association with a system of more than com nion corruptness. President MoKinley, for some reason or other, is incapable of ridding himself of the incubns of his secretary, who is evidently regarding himself as having the president in his pocket, serenely defies the public indignation that has been aroused by his Stand by Otis.

WASHINGTON, Jnly complaint of the correspondents was read with regret at the white house--regret for the mistake which it was felt the signers had made. Later, a member of the administration, one whoso relations with the president are close and whose qualifications to represent the GAR STRIKE NEWS Both Sides Claim Advantage at Brooklyn, Y. cabinet is uuques- sentiment of the tioiied, said: "The reports of General Otis have been substantiated by every officer of the government in the Philippines. The members of the Philippines commission have agreed with General Otis in their presentation of the situation, and so have subordinate commanders in the aimy who have-made reports or who have returned to this country and talked over the situation with the president. There has been absolutely no conflict of opinion among those who have officially represented the government iii the Philippines.

Under such circumstances I do not see how the newspaper correspondents in Manila can raise an issue between General Otis aud the administration." The issue which the correspondents have raised is no new question to the government Precedents are found ia the history of the civil war. More than one war correspondent in the 60s, as the cabinet officer indicates, failed to comprehend the character of his relations to the general commanding tne army which he was accompanying. A crisis such as the correspondents in the Philippines have created occurred in the early part of the civil war. A Trouble Spreading Among Men at Cleveland.

WASHINGTON, Jnly publication of the war correspondents' formal iudicnmeut of General Otis' management of the Philippine campaign caused a sensation in the departments hero. Secretary Hay received advices from civil as well as military sources in the Philippines, which led him to declare the situation there was certainly improved materially, and that the prospects for the future were brightened very much. With these advices, the secretary said, General Otis had had nothing to do and they were from disinterested persons whose opinions must carry weight.

Generally there was a strong disinclination exhibited by the officials to discsus this last "round robbiu." General Miles, who is acting as secretary of war in the absence of Secretary Alger and Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn, would not comment upon the dispatch and Adjutant General Corbin took the same stand.

SALE OF A PAPER Editor Childers Disposes of the Pana "Beacon." PAN July Beacon Light changed hands Monday, O. M.

Gilmer of St. Joaoph, succeeding William S. Ohildress in control of the publication. The policy of the paper during the reign of Editor Chilfiress was antagonistic of the union miners throughout their lookout of 15 months, and on several occasions Ohildress was assaulted and seriously injured as a result of his published tirades upon the miners' organization. Three weeks ago, wheu the mines closed down and the imported negroes left, Editor Childresa disappeared and has not since returned.

The sale of the paper came as a result of a transfer of mortgages on the plant. Editor Gilmer is a brother of Rev. U. Z. Qilmer, pastor of too Pana First Methodist church, who gained considerable notoriety owing to his sensational sermon and vigorous attack upon Sheriff Downey, other civil authorities and the uiiiou miners at the obsequies of Frank Cobnrn, son of ex-Sheriff Coburn, who was one of the victims of the riot of April 10, when 10 persons were killed.

Mayor Btadler thought it was a waste of money. He said that he and the aldermen rode in the wagon without rubber tires and if it WHS good enough for him he thought it was good enough for the drunken bums.
