CoRBIN WON'T TELL.
Nobody But Governors to Be Taken
Into His Confidence.

Washington, June S.-Adjutant Gen
eral COrbin has announced that he
would not make public the appOrtion-
ment of the volunteer troops among the
states under the second call of the
president. The enlistment of $4,000
men called for will proceed, as hereto
fore announced, precisely as enlist
ments are made for the regular army.
The governors of states are notified by
the department how many men are to
be enlisted in their states under the
second call and how the enlistments will
be made; but this information will not
be given to the public by the war de-
partment.
1t is expected that the enlistment of
troops will proceed more smoothly
than it would if the quota of each state
was made public at this time. A ma
jOrity of the men enlisted will be sent
at once to the permanent camps to fill
regiments that are incomplete, the men
being assigned Of course to regiments
which belong to the localities from
which the recruits come.
Under the second call each state is
called upon to furnish a specified num-
Der of men, not a specified number of
company, battalion or regimental orga-
nizations. After a state has filled it's
quota the men unassigned to regiments
already in the service will be organized
into new regiments, the governors COM
missioning the officers who are to COM
mand them.

GETTING TOGETHER.
Differences on the War Revenue Bill
are Disappearing.

Washington, June 9.-The Republican
members of the conference committee
on the war revenue bill were in caucus
for about four hours yesterday, and It
is stated by members of the caucus
that they practically reached an agree
ment on the most important items of
difference between the two houses.
They relate to the coinage of the sill
yer bullion, the form of the bond pro-
vision and the amount of the bonds, the
inheritance tax, the duty on tea, etc.
These questions have not yet been
raised in the full conference, and the
Republicans decline to state any points
of their agreement. The general i'm
preston among senators is that there
will be some provision for coming the
SeigniOrage and possibly all the silver
bullion in the treasury, but it is not
believed that the terms of the senate
provision will be accepted without ma
teria1 modification.
The result of the Oregon election
strengthened those opposed to making
any concessions to silver, but it also
had the effect of causing the western
Republican senators to be all the
more clamOrOus for recognition. They
express confidence that their represen-
tatiOns will not go unheeded, and they
profess to speak upon assurances from
Republican members of the conference.
Two sessions of the full committee,
were held, but in these only matters of
minor Importance were passed upon,
and as a rule the senate amendments
on these matters were accepted. Among
the changes was one in the beer tax
provision making it definite that the
stock on hand exempted should be the
stock in the hands of dealers, and not
of brewers.
The house conferees are making de-
termined contest to relieve insurance
agents from the license of $12 year,
and they have indicated a tendency to
allow the tax on bankers, brokers, the
aters, etc, to stand if the insurance
agents are not taxed. They are also
making an onslaught on Senator Chill
toms amendment extending the provis-
ions in regard to proprietary medicines
to other articles, but the senate's rep
resentatives indicate disposition to
yield on this point.
Senator Allison expressed the opin-
ion, when adjournment was taken for
the night, that he thought the commit
tee could conclude it's work today, but
that it would not be able to report be-
fore Thursday

all bids for one thousand dollars or
less. 1t is not anticipated that these
will reach a sufficient amount to abb
sorb the whole loan, but it is desired
to give the preference to small bidders,

OLD COMIC OPERAS.
Given to Pretty Good Audiences at ~
the Crawford.

The Merrie Bell Opera company pre-
scented "Olivette" to a better audience
than saw La N1ascotte" at the Craw-
ford theater last night. The engage
nent of the company proved it to be
one of the creditable small light opera
companies. Miss Ada Palmer Walker,
the soprano of the company, has a
strong and pleasing voice, and she is
given uniformly good support by the
other principals. Mr.. e. F. Seamans
was suffering from severe hoarseness,
and could not do justice to his part as
tenor.
The company made the mistake Of
putting on the operas with piano music
alone. AS a result all musical effect
was lost.
The company is to be augmented
with ten additional people for the sum-
rne1- engagement in st. Joe. and VIII
probably return to Topeka with TINS
STRENGTH later in the season and open
an engagement of several nights OF
light opera.

Bank of Spain is Preparing to Garry

New York, June S.-A dispatch to the
World from Madrid says: All negotia-
tions for a foreign loan having totally
failed the minister of finance has
agreed with the Bank of Spain for more
advances to be guaranteed by the re-
cent issue of perpetual A per cents.
If necessary the bank will take from
it's gold cash in hand, money to pay
for government war stores and ammu-
milton. War material is largely i'm
ported still from France and Germany.
A law voted by the cortes authorizes
the government to release the bank
from it's obligation to keep up the
former proportion between its cash
gold and silver in hand and its note
issue. There are strong rumors again
of intrigues between the vatican and
the Austrian court to bring about
concert of mediation this summer
Prime Minister Sagasta objects to
such a plan until the war takes a de-
cisive development. This he expects
soon.

THREE BURNED TO DEATH.
Children, Matches and Oil Prove to
Be Disastrous Combination.

Pittsburg, Pa.,June S.-Three children
met death in a frightful manner last
evening in Allegheny. BY the explosion
of a can of oil their clothing was igni-
ted and the children burned so terribly
that they died in a short time. The
victims were: Ella, Edith and HarVille
Watts, children of Charles Watts of
Ferneys Hill, near Woods Run avenue,
aged IL and Z years and four months
respectively.
The oldest child proved herself a ne
roine, for with the flames roasting her
body she tried to carry her baby broth
er to a place of safety Mrs Watts
was also burned in trying to save her
children.
The children were playing in an out
house in the yard and one of them
struck match. In the same room was
a large can containing two gallons of
oil. When the match was thrown down
it dropped into the can and the explo-
sion followed instantly.

Chenille. w. Va, June S.-The trial
of Joshua P. Owens, who stands in
dicted jointly with the wife of Cover
nor w. J. Atkinson for forgery, de-
veloped a sensation this afternoon. The
state placed on the witness stand R.
NJ. Owens of Pittsburg. He Unidentified
eleven letters written to him by Mrs.
Atkinson prior to the death of Judge
Camden, her second husband. The let
ters acted as a red flag in the face of
the defense, Notwithstanding the fact
that the state has not yet divulged
their contents.
The witness denied that he had at
tempted to sell the letters to the Cam
den heirs, Mrs AtkinSon'S enemies, but
admitted that he had written the gov
ernors wife offering to sell them to her
for 81, 500 Owens said he had been ar
rested at Pittsburg by Postal Inspector
Hooten for attempting to sell the let
ters The letters relate, it is said. to
Judge Camden's property. The feeling
among participants in the trial is in
tense.
