says: Spain must shape her future career
in accordance with her reduced sphere of
sovereignty. without losing her aspirations
for the future. Above all things, full light
is required. The Spanish people must no
longer be deluded by Misrepresentation as

RED CROSS PEOPLE At WAR.
Alleged Revolt Against Miss Barton,
Head of the Society.
pecial to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Sept. L.-The return to
Washington of Miss Clara Barton, head of
the Red Cross Society," has set on foot the
report that the principal object of her visit
at this time is to protect herself from be-
ing deposed and her place given to Mrs.
John Addison Porter, wife of the Presidents
secretary The complaint is that up to this
time Miss Barton has centralized the power
of the Red Cross in herself and has insisted
on being 1.-THE whole thing Against this
sort of monopoly other ladies who have been
identified with the Red Cross work as Miss
Barton's "pawns" or puppets are said
to have revolted and determined to organize
a real sure enough Red Cross Society con-
structed on genuine representative princi-
pies. The story is at least interesting.
An Associated Press dispatch says Miss
Barton and party reached Washington to-
day from Tampa, Fla. Those with Miss
Barton were DR.. Winfield Egan, chief sur
geon of the Red Cross; General Won Scheil
of the Belgian Red Cross; DR.. Gill, j. A.
Mcdowell, Miss Lucy Graves and Miss
Annie Fowler, of Illinois. The party is here
waiting orders and may be sent either to the
Philippines or Porto Rico. 1t is said that
Miss Barton will make to the President and
secretary Of state a detailed statement of
the action of the Spanish authorities in re-
fusing to allow the Red Cross to land car
goes of supplies at Havana.

ELIzABETH,s ECcENTRICITIEs.
Royal COnventiOnalities Disregarded
by the Late Empress

LONDON, Sept. 12.-The late Empress
Elizabeths manner of travelling, going
about unattended, rendered her the one
easiest, though the one least likely to be
the victim of anarchistic brutality. She all
ways travelled incognito as Countess Ho-
henejibs, relying ON her own mysterious
proceedings for protection against cranks
or criminals. When in London about three
years ago she was up and about the streets
every morning at o'clock, visiting the
flower market in Covent Garden at that un-
usual hour more than once, and also the
Billingsgate fish market. She went to bed
at o'clock. She lived wholly to herself.
and peremptorily forbade the embassy off,
cials to take any notice of her presence. of
late years she always wore a veil so thick
that 1t was impossible to scrutinize her
features. She was morbidly susceptible 10
the inevitable decay of her beauty, which at
one time was of worldwide fame. For the
same reason she never had been photo
graphed or had her portrait painted for
thirty years. and no one has ever succeeded
in even sketcning her during that time.
Until her health broke down, she was

VIEWS OF CHARLES DENNY.
Thinks the United States Should Keep
All the Philippines.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-Mr. Charles
DENLY former minister of the United
to China, arrived here to-day from Peking
and in the afternoon paid his respects to the
President. On leaving the White House Mr..
DENLY, in answer to inquiries, said that in
his judgment the United States should re-
tain permanent possession of all or prac-
tically all of the Philippine islands. To sur
render them to Spain would be only to in
vte a controversy and possibly war
among the European nations for their pos
session, and If the United States is to make
effort to secure any considerable portions of
the markets of the far East the Philippines
would be of very great advantage to us.
Mr. DENLY thought that the Eastern ques-
tion had been practically settled for the
present, at least. He did not believe there
was anything in the situation to justify the
expectation of a partition of China among
the powers Russia has already secured ter
ritorial concessions which completely satis-
fed all her desires in that particular direc-
ton and as trade and trade facilities were
the only objects of English and German
concern in China, he saw no good reason
why they should desire her ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
In any event Mr.. DENLY said he did not
look for any immediate change in the pres
ent status.
General Denby closed his diplomatic rela-
ton with the government to-day, making
his final reports to the secretary of state
and paying his respects to the President
personally General DENLY will make only
a brief stop in Washington.

snnndence with Snnin.

spOndence with Spain.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-The Madrid
dispatch in regard to the American reply
to the Spanish note protesting against hos
tilities on the part of the insurgents of the
Philippine islands was shown to the first
secretary of the French embassy. He said
that Ambassador Cambon had been absent
from Washington several weeks and the re-
ply was not sent by him personally. IF such
a reply had been made 1t would have gone
through the hands of the first secretary, but
he declined positively to say whether or not
he had forwarded a message of such
character. The officials of the State De-
partment also refused to make known the
nature of the communications exchanged
between the two governments regarding this
matter. 1t is known, however, that in re-
sponse to urgent appeals from the Spanish
government to protect the Spaniards living
in the Philippines from the insurgents dur
ing the continuance of the truce now in
force General Otis was instructed to use his
influence with the insurgent leaders to cause
them to stop active hostilities for the time.
Touching the departure from Manila of in
surgent parties on ships to carry the revolu-
ton among the other islands of the group
it is learned that no such expeditions have
been sent out since the signature of the
protocol and the incident which formed the
basis of the Spanish representations on the
subject happened some time ago. when it
was warranted.

Clam at the suggestion of the minister for

Two Cabinet meetings have considered the
question of a revision of the Dreyfus case
and adjourned until Saturday at the request
of the minister Of justice, M. Sarrien, who
is desirous of more time in which to con-
slider the documents.
The court has refused to release former
Colonel Picquart pending a rehearing of the
case against him.
LONDON, Sept. 13.-The Paris CORE
spondent of the Times suggests that the
second Of the two Cabinet councils held
yesterday (Monday) was called specially to
avert the immediate resignation of General
Zurlinden, minister for war; who, had he re-
signed, could not have accompanied M.
Faure to the maneuvers. The correspondent
understands that as M. Sarrien, minister of
justice, has consented to reconsider the
Dreyfus "dossier," General Zurlinden will
postpone his resignation until he returns
from the maneuvers.
The Paris correspondent of the Daily
News says: President Faure declared to-
day that it would never do for him to face
the troops at the maneuvers if coming from
Cabinet council which had adopted revis-
ion.

Emperor reread with much emotion a pas
sage in the last letter received from the EN-

being pleased with the prospect of returning
to Vienna in few days to witness the jub-
lice festivities. His Majesty attended the
usual state duties to-day and insisted on at

General Miles's note was approved by G.
D. Mekeljohn, acting secretary of war
Assistant Secretary of War Meikeljohn to-
night gave out an extract from the proposal
from W. E. Baldwin, jr., president of the
Long Island Railroad Company, which has
the contract for transporting the troops
from Camp Wikoff. He made this public,
the assistant secretary said, to disprove the
statements that the government was de-
pendent on the Long Island Railroad alone
for transportation purposes, when as mat
ter of fact any vessel in the employ of the
War Department could engage in the work.
Following is the extract referred to:
This proposition to the government is
made on the following condition, which /
think reasonable and proper, in view of the
great concession In rates quoted and the
large expenditures necessary to provide the
facilities required. namely: The military au-
thorities to agree that they will not con-
tract with or employ any other carrier for
transportation facilities between Montauk
and New York or Long island points, and
lIldL no VESSEL ONuCu Ut COQlTOilGQ Uy pTl-

future docks for passengers or freight to or
from New York or. Long island points with
out the permission of the railroad company;
it being however. understood that any gov
ernment transports or vessels may discharge
and load troops or supplies at such docks,
and that any vessels may take on or dis
rha In 0fh re
than New York or Long island with the per-
mission of the military authorities"
Mr.. Meikeljohn to-day directed that the
four ransports-Mississppi Roumania Ber-
lin and Chester-proceed Immediately to
Montauk, for transporting to New York and
Jersey City the troops ordered to their des-
tinations. They will be joined Wednesday
by the OLDHAM The assistant secretary says
the convalescents at Montauk will be re-
moved to their homes as fast as passible,
and the invalds as soon as they are able to
travel to the general hospitals at Fort Mon
roe, Fort Thomas and Fort Mcpherson.
