To the Editor of The News and Cou-

victims Of Indian treachery.
Capt Wallace was for years first
lieutenant of G. Troop, 7th cavalry.
This troop was the fighting troop of the
regiment. They called him Long and
Hungry" he was so tall and spare, but
they loved him as only soldier loves
a game and q kind commander. You
said they were brave men: truer words
have never been spoken. l served
directly under both of them.
As for Lieut.. Darlington, ! was one
of his command during his effort 10

field is considering the school book
question, aud will doubtless do all IN
his power to make the prices lower.
We hope that he may be successful in

have the hearty support of every one

books are too dear. Other books are
cheap, very cheap, and why should
books for school children he so much

About County Commissioners.

COLUMBIA, S. G. Jan. GA brand
new issue growing ont Of the recent
legislation has been referred to !Attor-
ney General Pope. The question is
whether every board of county COM
missioners is functus otficiO by the
amendment to the Constitution abol-
ishing the office Of county commits
sioner. The Act creating the board,
prescribing its duties, etc, has not
been repealed, and the point is. the
county commissioners being the head
of the county government, whether
there is any county government IN
the State. Attorney General Pope
says that he has the matter under
advisemcnt and without giving def
mite opinion, he thinks that the new
constitutional amendments only relieves
the electors Of the duty of electlnS
county commissioners. He does not
regard the amendment as summarlly
dsp0sing Of the county commissioners,
the Acts as to their function being Still
Of force.

CHICAGO, July 20.-Interest in the Cronin
tragedy has been revived by the story from
New York that Peter Dean had mysteriously
disappeared after receiving $4,000 to preserve
silence in regard to incidents connected with
the progress Of the conspiracy and the subse-
quent assassination Of the doctor. Inspector
Marsh said every effort had been made TO cap
ture Dean, who had been tracked as far as New

Why did you want him.
There was good reason to suspect that he
was the man who drove the white horse away
from Dinan's stable the night Dr. Cronin was
killed. do Lot believe that the man is IN this
country or We would have captured him.
John l.. Scanlan says that Dean is not the
man who drove the white horse. I'VE know
that man., said Mr.. Scanlan. land we have
known him for over year. He is not an Irish
man. He only left Chicago last year and we

WHY HE HEsITATES.
Senator Quay Wants Certain Appointments
Made Before He fsetires.

ocHhtoT VuAy wants Serta1n appointments
Made Before He ketires.
1t is generally believed here that the little
uncertainty Mr.. Quay confesses to with regard
to his retirement from the chairmanship of the
republican national committee is due to some
doubt on the part Of Mr.. Quay about Mr.. Har-
rison's making certain appointments. There is
little doubt. it is said, about the Presidents 8
anxiety to get rid of Quay. The success of the
democrats in Pennsylvania last year is charged
to the determination of right-minded people,
regardless of party, to repudiate methods
which were regarded as disreputable. If Mr..
Quay should remain at the head of the national
committee it is thought there might be danger
of the national party suffering from the sus-
plcion which surrounds the political manage
ment OF the Pennsylvania boss.
HITCH AS TO AN APPOINTMENT.
President Harrison and Mr. Quay have not
been on very friendly terms for some time, but
a few weeks ago they got little closer together
than they had been previously. The Pennsyl-
vania Senator had long conference with the
President when he presented the resignation
of Collector Martin of Philadelphia. and sug-
gested several appointments he wanted made.
The indications were then that they had come to
an understanding and it was believed that in
accordance with Mr.. Harrison's wishes Mr..
Quay would retire from the craftsmanship of
the national committee. Chief among the ap-
pointments Mr.. Quay asked for was that of
Judge Gilkeson, now second controller of the
treasury. to succeed Judge Schofield as judge
OF the Court of Claims. 1t was expected by
Mr.. Quay that there would be no trouble about
this appointment. 1t is understood now. how
ever, that there is a hitch in the matter and
that the President is reluctant to make the ap-
pointment.
Probably if Mr.. Harrison will give such recog-
milton to the Pennsylvania Senator as to amount
to certificate OF political character the little
uncertainty about his retirement will be re-
moved.
GEN. CLARKsoN.HI SUCCESSOR
Mr.. Quay, in his interview on the subject OF
his probable retirement, gives color to the re-
port that Gen. Clarkson will succeed him. II
is doubted whether this will be particularly
gratifying to Mr.. Harrison, and it may be
nothing less than a reminder to the President
that the powers which have been in control OF
the national committee are still there, and tina,
whether Quay retires or not the chairman will
not be man who wonld make many personal
sacrifices for MIR. Harrison. Mr.. Clarkson ii
not regarded as a friend of Mr.. Harrison's-
certainly not to the extent of wishing his re.
nomination-and the selection of him to sue.
ceed Quay when the latter resigns will be re-
garded in many quarters as indicating gen.
eral weakness of the administration forces on
the national committee.

The Colorado river overfows its banks in
consequence of the formation Of new lake in

from Wood Mcknight of River Lisle. Col,
asking that the Department prevent the COM
pany From carrying out this design on the
ground that the people of southern California
