War Summary.

All attention has been turned to the Philippine Islands where Ad. miral Dewey's fleet has been maneuvering for several days to give the Spanish fleet battle.
 The meager dispatches from the islands is somewhat conflicting. There has been a great naval battle and the Americans were victorious, but from the very latest advices, it appears that our men have sustain ed great loss of life and the depart ment at Washington is fearful that later reports will confirm this.
 It will take another battle for Dewey to capture the islands.

AN Ex-MAYoR OF NEW YORK
His Death Leaves a Former Scranton
Woman a Widow.

EX- Mayor a. Oakley Hall, of New
York city, whose death occurred Fri
day night of heart failure at his resi-
dence on West SiXty-eighth street in
that city, reminds many residents of
Scranton, particularly those on the
West Side, that he married Mrs. John
G.. Noakes, widow of John G. Noakes,
of this city.
Several years ago she left here and
took up her residence in New York.
Soon 2fterward the announcement OF
her marriage to Mr. Hall was announc-
ed. The Noakes estate in Scranton is
a valuable one, consisting of the prop
erty at the easterly intersection of
Spruce street and Franklin avenue,
and several properties on the West
Side ard in other parts Of the city.
To the older generation the name of
Noake's hall is familiar.
Two children came of her first union.
Mrs. Alexander. of Wilkes Barre, and
j. Gordon Noakes, Il young man now,
living with her in New York. Before
her marriage to MIR. Noakes she was a
Miss Nichols, and her family was
prominent in the early history of the
West Side.
EX-Mayor Hall was very wealthy
and of striking characteristics. A
year ago he and she became Roman
Catholics. One of the terms of his
will, it is said. is that she must not
return to live in Scranton. He was
mayor of New York two terms, which
was many years ago. At his death he
was 72 years old.

TWO BOLD BURGLARIES.
w. ]. Davis Tailoring Establish
ment and Dogostina's Barber
Shop Entered Some Time Sat-
urday Night-The Way
They Entered.

Two burglaries with peculiar Incl
dents attached occurred Saturday
night. w. j. Davis tailoring estab-
lishment, in the Arcade, on Wyoming
avenue, and Dogostina's barber shop,
under Rooms hotel, 103 Lackawanna
avenue, were the scenes of the depre-
dations.
The thief at the tailor shop gained
entrance by climbing through a tran
som over a side door connecting with
the corridor leading to the Lyceum. He
opened the safe door, which is always
left unlocked. smashed the money
drawer and pocketed the few dollars
in small change that had been left
there.
A suit of clothes which had been
selected by the burglar from among
two dozen that were hanging in a
row was found on a table partly
wrapped up. 1t is supposed he was
frightened off before he could finish
making up the bundle. Mr.. Davis did
not know for certain yesterday wheth-
er or not any cloth had been taken,
The barber shop thief got away with
eight razors and two clippers. They
belonged to one of the two BARRIERS,
Romeo Gratiano. The other barber,
Tony Mastantuwanna a recent i'm
portation from New York, had thir-
teen razors at the shop, but for some
reason or other took them home with
him Saturday night
The entrance to the shop was evi-
IDENTIFY made by some one familiar with
the premises. A window, reached
through the coal bin, had a pane of
glass missing. BY inserting the arm
through this opening the catch could
he readily removed. The burglar came
in this way, and, in going out, closed
the window and coal bin door behind
him.
A suggestive feature of the case is
that the one broken razor in Gratiano's S
KIT was removed and thrown aside.
The defect in the razor was not dis
| cernable except on a close examna =
tion.

GUARD A TOWN
An Indian Outbreak is .lreatened
at Leech Lake-Friendly Indians
Sign a Paper.

St. Paul, oct. "a special from Fer
riam, Mimi, small town north of
Leech lake, says: "A report reached
here late this evening Of the killing of
white man near Bear island during
the day. Settlers living near the In
dian reservation are seeking shelter in
towns along the railroad. A large band
of Indians OF about $50 were reported
late this evening camped within two
miles north of this town. Armed citi-
zens are guarding the town, expecting
an attack during the night or early
morning.
Indians protesting to be friendly were
at Graeland, one and a half miles west
of here, this evening trying to pur-
chase ammunition.
Walker, Mimi, Oct. 9.-There were
75 or 100 in the party. men, women and
children. They went into camp about
five miles from the agency and NAH
Ge-Gah- Bow called on General Bacon
at once. He said that he had told the
hostiles on the island that he could not
go with them. that he and his friends
were for peace with the white men, and
that they were going to the agency.
"All right" said the hostiles laconic-
ally, tell them what we are doing"
and they allowed Nah -Ge-Gah- Bow to
depart in peace.
He did say that so far as he knew
| none of the hostiles We're killed in the
| fight, but they all say that. AS to how
many Indians were actually on the
warpath, the agency Indians were dis
posed to hold the number down to
something under 100, and many of them
| say that there are not more than twen-
! ty-five or thirty.
| DR.. Hart has prepared a paper which
the Indians are being asked to sign as
