He suggested that action be postponed until next meeting, in order to give mem. bers a chiico to investlgaite, so that they may vote Intelligently.

Mr. Qarrety fevored the ordinance if there are no damages connected with the opening. Mr. Stenger. of the Seventh Ward, who championed the bill scouted the idea of damags, saying that the damage claim as sti forth In tho communication is only a bluff game; that the railroad company does not now and never did own the ground to be taken In the proposed wid ening of tho street.

It has always been a public highway and as such has never been vacated. Mr. Schwenk favored the passage of the bill without delay. Messrs. Hose, Garrety, Manifold, Powell, Baker and others favored the bill, on tho condition that the city will not be lurched Into damages.

The mutiny of the orden publico forces which for two days threatened the peace of this city, has resulted in the dissolution of that body today, when after the payment of some arrears and the promise of a full liquidation, the revolting troops laid down their arms.

Capt. Geo. Bianco then ordered all the foot and mounted regiments of the orden publico to be tiLsbandoned, that organization ceasing to exist from this date. As originally planned, it was in tended that the mutinv should hav extended to the guandia civil and the artillery regulars ami it would in that event have assumed much graver importance and might perhaps have inaugurated a reign ot terror and bloodshed ia the island. lor some time past the uorisimr of the troops in consequence ol the non-receipt of their pay has been feared.

Not only is their pay owing for mouths and in some cajses for years, out, tne reserve pay of tho soidiers, their savings since the date of their enlistment, which were looked upoa by them as sacred have been sru priated or stolen, as the iau jsuv. bv the government which now turns a deaf ear to their protests. vwiat amount this reserve pay reaches it is impossible to estimate, but it is known that it airirrerates millions. Ihis is what bus been precipitating riots, eausLusr nrutinv here, impelling the men to insubordination at Nuevitas, and which may yet give rise Ho further widespread disturbotnetas in the island. Havana, Nov.

14. A battalion of the orden publico was shipped this morning on board the steamer Alicante, with Its oCicers. There was no opposition mad and all was quiet here. Regular troops were stationed along the streets leading from the Plaza do Armas ito the wharf. They were under the command of Gen.

Arolas. Previous to being led back to their iuarterS the troops defiled on the Plaza de Armas before General Captain General Blanco's chief of staff; Detachments of troops are still guard ing the plaza, parks and principle streets as a matter of precaution asralnst fur. ther trouble and also in order to pre serve public order, in view of the dis banding of the orden publico. Col. Paglleri, the chief of police, has resigned.

It is believed the captain general will not accept his resignation. The captain general has notified Gen. Calixto Garcia and the other members of the Cuban commission, who have arrived here from Santa Cruz del Sur, that It would be advisable for them to camp at Marianao so as to avoid public demon strations. Tho Cubans have followed this advice. It Is reported that the Cuban commis sion will visit the American evacuation commission Hoday.

Thacher presented her report as super intendent of work among soldiers and sailors including a summary of the can teen work in tho soldiers homes through out the country. She interspersed her summary with incidents and illustrations of the work. The soldiers and sailors department banner was awarded to 'the Pennsylvan ia delegation.

Mrs. Thacher introduced resolutions against the canteen which were unanimously adopted. A letter from Lady Henry Somerset, dated Oct. 24, 1898, was received by the secretary, expressing a desire for peace, as a monument to Miss Wlllard, aiming for peaceful outcome of all controver sies, frankly giving the opinions of Miss Willard on the Temple. Miss Willard feared the plan of the Temple was too vast.

At her request Lady Henry had consulted with Mrs. Carse In order to plead with Mrs. Carse to eoandon her Undertaking. Lady Henry feared the fight for the Temple would wreck the organization Miss Wlllard had done so much to up. She believed the Temple would, even though It was not owned by the XV.

Carse asked for the reading of a letter written by Lady Henry in Juno in which she advocated making the Temple a memorial to Miss Willard Kit tho letter not being accessible and the devotional hour having arrived the mat ter waa laid over.

"Anglo-Saxons of America aided by the Ang.o-Saxons of Europe have obliterated half Spain from the maps." Oar Policy In China. in the Notth Amerean Review for October our policy in regard to the future of China is discussed by M. B. Bunnell, who holds that our commer cial rights in China, as defined by treaty, should be maintained, regard less of the alienation Of territories now In progress. "We are concern ed," he aya, "with the integrity of Chinese trade und not the integrity of Chinese territory.

'Ihe sticking joint with us is the preservation of our present treaty right of admission to the Chinese market upon terms of equality with any other nation. To this end our government ahouhl join England in injiisting.eveii to the point of war, upon an express etipula-tion in future grants ot territory by China that our goods ahali be admit ted into the territory granted upon the same terms as th gooda of the nation receiving' the grant. We should also join iinglund iu employing eveay diplomatic means, short of a threat of war, to prevent the parti tion of China, because that event would be disastrous to Ameiiean trade although open markets were guaranted. The advantages of cooperating with England to the ex tent here advocated are obvious. JSo power or combination of powers would for a moment think of stop ping tho joint demand of England and the dated States for open markets iu China." Our exports to China last year were worth about $20,000,000, against $1.1 17,059 in 1S93.

At present cotton goods and kerosene oil are the articles of chief value but railway material and commodities of a mis- ceihiDeoua character are being taken in increatung volume. England baa recently secured for the truding world the opening of new ports and rivers, with increased facilities for commerce everywhere. This is an important circumstance, since ft promises a great enlargement of our trade with China, 'Ihe 250,000,000 Mubjcota of the Emperor are for the first time given the opportunity of obtaining uch foreign commodities as they require. Uestrurtoos upon the ute of wteamers upon, the rivers have hitherto made tho transporUir tiou of goodst inland expensive, so that their cost was prohibitive for persons of small meanu, but England has also obtaued the removal of such restrictions, with the result of greatly widening the demand for foreign goods. For the reasons here cited our exports of $20,000,000 to China 4nt year may be expected to be doubled and tripled iu the near fu ture.

It is the future of our trade with China which we are now called upon, wiys Mr. Bunnell, to Bute-guard Having captured the home market by means of the Dingley tariff, it is our necessity to look for foreign outleta lor our surplus products, and no for eign outlet it4 no proniiiiing us Ctunu, Thv tariff ot China in nominal, nod we enjoy in the porta of the Son of Heaven advantages almost equal to those triveti us in t.he iiorta of free- trude England, it would bo a distiuet calamity for American trade should the tariffs of Kuia, France and Cier- maiiy be imsed upon our wares at Chinese inrU. Mr. Duunell does not advocate au alliance with England, nor does he advise the acquisition of territory in China. Equality of op portunity tamie in his hole desire There will tiot, in view of recent eon-eeRsdons, l.e such equality of opportunity in Manchuria, for examplc.aiul for this minim he deprecates the ex- Seju-ion of the Czar's Kvver over that country.

M. C. A. football maaayemont have decided to play the game with U. oi P.

at York next Saturday. As announced in the aliy this naming, the University anxious to mike every reparation in its power for the disappointment of Election Day, gave the Y. M. C. A.

the choice of either playing la iork or Philadelphia next Saturday. It wtii decided to play here because it is the desire of the York team to give as much fcoibaii as possible to its patrons. There i is really very little reason for them to do this, becauao the support furnished the footbail team this fall has been an Insult to the excellence of the sport. Nevertheless, the super-conscientiousness of the local managemant made them accept this course and it remains for the public to demormtraite next Saturday that York has a litde local pride. The V.

of P. 'varsity team has no game scheduled for the day. A few of the regular pUy-eis wii to the Yaie-liarvard gawd, but Che majority of the best substiutes will be In York to play the game. The local team had a. large number of men to the praettce last night.

men ar working hard and will give a good account of themselves Saturday. York is playing at home Saturday at a great loss of monty. If they had gone to Franklin Field there was a very bright prospect of making five hundred dollars on the trip. That is an tmp.tUUy here, but tt remains for Yorkers to reward this unsellishness, by furalahlng a latge crowd to Saturday's game.

14. LieuUtHiiiLt Herman (1. lh-esel of the UniAe-d States Navy committed suicide the toilctroom of the Carrollton Hotel at 10:15 o'clock this morning by Khooting hiuiKclt in the left temple with a 38-caiibre revolver. The body was aent to tho and Coroner Germon was notified. It is supposed the oiheer took ids life in preference to obeying order to proceed to Ma nila in tji Philippine Islands for duty on board the Zufi.ro, a collier.

Lieutenant Dresel waa not register ed at the Carrollton. He waa seen to enter the hotel at about 10 o'clock. After waiklikg about the corridors for a few momcaits, "during which time he took papera from hi pocket and teemed to be studying them nervous ly, lu went down etaixs to the toilet-room. Without BfcoppiDir he went careeuy into one of the com-J partments and locked the door, hang- ujr on umbrella- by his side. He had been in the compartment but a few moments when a pistol shot rang out and Ids body waa heard to fall heavily against the door.

Mr. Herbert Cowroy, private detec tive at the Carrollton. was etai'iding near when the shooting occurred. He nsfcruetcd the attendant in the toilet -room to leave the door locked on account of tho crowd attracted from the lobby by the shot, and started upstairs, but meeting Detec tive Cornier of Captain I reburger a force on the steps returned with itiin. By this time a large crowd had as sembled down stairs and thft police had considerable trouble holding the people back so that the door could be opened.

One of the attendants cLcnbed over the partition and opened tne door from the inside, when Drewl was found lying on the floor with his head in a pool of blood. The Dui.vt had made an ugly hole in his head. Death had been instantaneous I he suicide waa dressed in ordinary clothiaig, and still wore hi hat.which was crushed in the tall. The followinir order, daUnl Novem ber II, waa found in tbo pocket of his coat: "Sir: You are hereby detached from duty on board the United State tearabip Essex, will proceed to San ranetsco, cab, thence to llon Koujr, China, taking pusage in the steamer of the i'acihe Mail Steamship Com pany Bailing from ran Francisco for iioog Kong on November lbU.1,and utxm arrival will tiroceed to Manila, P. 1., and report to the commander-in- chief of the Asiatic Station, for duty oa board the United StaU's steam-Jiip Zatiro, aa the relief of Lieut.

In it he said that he had received orders to go to Manila and rport for duty on board the Zatlro, and auktd If Lieut. Pahs would exchange or dere if the humor could be arranged. adding: "I prefer vessels on home sta tion. Will be In Washington tomorrow. It is supposed from these papers that he killed himself rather than go to Manila, bee.

mi rig convinced that ho could ndt muke the deetrcd arrangements for an exchange of orders. Lieutenant Dresel was well known at tho Navy pay ottlce in the Custom-houde. No one could assign any cause for th) act; cxceiA his unwillingness to go to Manila. ills reasons for preferring i hume vessel was noe known at the otHce He was described as a pleasant, cheerful man, a 1th no known troubles. Dresel was about 38 or 40 years of ago ite entered the Navy on September 22, 1876, at Annapolis, having been appoint ed from Ohio, his native home.

Ou May 4. 1S96, ho was inado a lieutenant. During the Spanish-American war he served on board the Puritan. Following the war ho was transferred to the Essex, and it Is said the transfer to Manila was mada on account of his value as an ottictr, which marked him out for continued nc tlve duty. This afternoon officers from the Ous tom-house visited the morgue, until a dozen or moro had seen tho body.

Thomas, lighthouse inspector for th Fifth District, who said: 'Lieutenant Dresel was one of the brightest men in the Navy. Ho was a graduate of the class of "SO, with my brother-in-law, and stood at the head of class.

Ho was especially profltlent as a mathematician. He was a son of Otto Dresel, of Columbus, I think. His mother survives him, at Columbus, and his wife and daughter are at tho Miry ladn Hotel, at Annapolis. I served dur- lu? last year with him, at Annapolis.
