Gen. FIagIer's Ideas Are Right.

Gen. ID. w. Flagler, chief of ord
nance, L. ). A, who is now a guest
at Rock Island arsenal, and who has
always been a staunch friend of the
arsenal, entertains the highest hopes
for the future of the plant. To a
Davenport reporter Saturday he said
he had been before congress in the in
terest of great manufacturing plant
here. but had not had the encourage
ment due so important an enterprise,
because congress did not realize the
importance of preparing for war in
time of peace. Now it is different
and the country is ready to endorse
congress in liberal appropriations for
the army and navy. Great savings
can be made to the government by
preparing to manufacture its own
army equipment. 1t is not alone the
savings in the manufacture of the
goods, but often the saving of defeat
in battle. as the success of the army
depends to large degree upon proper
equipment that will not fail in the
midst of battle. Gen. Flagler hopes
to see $1,000 men employed at Rock
Island arsenal in case of rush orders.
1t will be necessary to put in a large
amount of machinery for the manu-
facture of small arms, small arms
and ammunition for field
and seige guns. The general also ex-
poets to enlarge the capacity for max
ing field and seige gun carriages. He
does not believe in keeping large
supply.

town and shot three whites stationed
there as guards. They were Albert Floyd,
Robert Inman and William Bullard
Billiard is seriously wounded, the 9TH
ers slightly. a hundred whites with
bioodhounds went in pursuit and cap
tured four of the negroes near AshpoIe.
They were run down and brought TO
bay by bloodhounds, and confined in
box cars at Ashpole and heavily
guarded. 1t is uncertain yet what the
fate Of the negroes may be-. but 1t is
feared their attempt to assassinate the
guards will so exasperate the whites as
10 cause further and more serious trou-
BILE. The guards were standing around
a fire in the open air. thus becoming
easy targets for the negroes, who fired
under cover of darkness and then fed.
The cause of the trouble is that few
nights ago Stubs Stone, in Ashpole,
eleven miles southwest from Lumber
ton, was robbed and burned. Circum-
stances pointed to certain negroes, and
it was expected that several negroes
would be arrested. The negroes heard
of il and determined to resist arrest
and threatened to burn the town. Fri
day night about 100 assembled in the
village after dark, and the whites kept
watch. Late in the night the negroes
commenced shooting. The fire was re-
turned by the few white men as
sembled. but nobody was hit. Saturday
the negroes commenced assembling,
heavily armed, and expressed their de-
termination to burn the place that
night. But before night the town was
full of armed whites and the negroes
were sent out of town in different di-
rections.

A Military Post.

Louis Loeb, who has just returned
from a western trip, where he has
made observations of the efforts other
cities are making to secure military
posts under the new arrangement
that is likely to follow the increase in
the standing army, advances the
timely argument that Rock Island
should also move in the same direc-
ton. Everything, as Mr.. Loeb says,
is favorable for Rock Island securing
such a location; the arsenal, geo
graphical advantages and all fix this
point as-pessessing- peculiarly
strong argument in its own behalf.
The idea Is one which the new Rock
Island-Sfub NAV we'll digest.

WANTS THE LAW MODIFIED.
Features of the Report of Dumont, Super
visins Inspector OF Steamboats,.

Washington, Oct. 24.-In his annual
report James a. Dumont, supervising
inspector general of steamboats,, strong
ly recommends the passage of senate
bill 2,21S, now bending in congress,
which authorizes the inspector gem
eral in certain cases of emergency to
appoint competent inspectors in his ser
vice to fill Vacancies without reference
to the civil service COMMISSION. The
workings OF the civil service law and
rules as applied to his Office. he says,
are not altogether satisfactory.
The duties of the inspectors of hulls
and of boilers at all times are highly
important. and in many instances. he
says. a delay of several days in filing
a vacancy works serious harm. 1t
frequently happens. General Dumont
says. that the commission has no list of
eligibles from which an appointment
can be made. and even where there is
an eligible list several days and some
times weeks are consumed in securing
the appointment.

of the peace commissioners in Paris
the American commissioners will de-
liver to their adversaries something
very closely approaching an ultima
tum. The president is satisfied at
last that the Spanish commissioners
are purposely delaying negotiations.
This is the belief of the American
commission also. The time has now
come to cut off all false pleas and
come directly to the main issue left
open by the protocol, namely, the dis
position of the Philippines.

telegraphs Paris that the American
peace commissioners at Fridays joint

annexation of the Philippines to the
