GRAY THE FIFTH MEMBER
VIEWS ENTERTAINED BY REP
 RESENTATIVES.
Will Be Instructed to Demand the Cession of Luzon Island as a Coaling and Naval
 Station.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The Herald's Washington correspondent sends the following: As announced to the French Ambassador and by him transmitted to Madrid, the peace commission will in clude: William R. Day of Ohio, Sec retary of State, who is opposed to the acquisition of all of the islands of the Philippine group; Senator Cushman K. Davis of Minnesota, an ardent expan- sionist; Senator N. P. Frye of Maine, who favors the retention of the Phil ippines; Whitelaw Reid of New York, who favors the retention of the Phil ippines; Senator George Gray of Della ware, who is opposed to the acquisition of foreign territory.
 Notwithstanding the different views of the American representatives the President is satisfied they will be will ing unanimously to carry out the in structions which he has prepared for them.
 There is every reason to believe that the President will instruct the Commits sioners to demand the cession of the Island of LuZon to the United States as a coaling and naval station.
 Further than this there is reason to believe that the President will not per init the Commissioners to go. The Com missioners will also be instructed to name Guam Island as the one of the Ladrone group to be held by the United

CYCL|ST INJURED BY FAST DRIVERS Result of a Road Race at Sacramento. TWO OFFICIAL ENTERTAINERS WERE SPEEDING THEIR HORSES
 AT NIGHT. V. s. McClatchy of the Bee Prefers Charges and the Case Will
 Be Tried in
 Court.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 9.-Ouite a sensation was enjoyed bv Sacramento. dozing in the quiet of holiday to- day, when police officers arrested B.. M. Lelong, secretary of the State Board of Horticulture, and David Reese, Un- der Sheriff of Sacramento County.
 The arrests were made on complaint of V. s. McClatchy, business manager of the Bee. The defendants secured bail, and they will probably appear in the City Justices Court tomorrow mornin~ to answer to the charge which McClatchy is going to press against them.
 McClatchy owns wheel and Lelong and Reese owns horses in which they take pardonable pride. McClatchy was riding out K street last night on his way home, when he heard the mad chatter of hoofs behind him. The clat- ter grew more ! more ominous, and the newspaper man deemed the time opportune for disappearing. He sought
The San Francisco call., 1898-09-10

ito do so when he was caught by one of the vehicles which either ran over him or struck him violently, and he was thrown to the ground and his wheel completely demolished.
 McClatchy, as he flew through the air caught sight of Secretary Lelong whip ping up his steed in a mad endeavor to take fall out of the pride of Under Sheriff Reese, who was in the lead and gaining. Lelong did not come back to see about the disposal of the remains of his victim, but continued out a couple of miles and must have won the race, because the Under Sheriff left the field free for him, while he turned around and drove back after lost whip.
 The Bee manager secured the names Of witnesses, and took carriage home. This morning he went to the police station and swore out warrants for the arrest of the racers He told them that he had the friendliest feel ings in the world for them, but that he was going to teach them and all other fast drivers a lesson just the same.
 The ordinance under which Lelong and Reese will be prosecuted places the maximum fine at $500 and impris- onment not exceeding ten days.
 Interest Is added to the occurrence by the statement of the Under Sheriff that Lelong drove up to him and gave Reese's steed a couple of sound welts in order to provoke race. Reese says he could not hold in his horse, which has 2:10 record, and he was obliged to engage in the contest.
 The Capital City Wheelmen are in terested in the case. saying that there is altogether too much fast driving within the city limits, producing among the wheelmen an epidemic of the dreaded bicycle face. K street has just been macadamized its entire dis tance, and the natives cannot resist the temptation to have try-out of speed every time they get on the smooth driveway.

Cable 1898

soon everything would be moving along efficiently and harmoniously.
 President Mckinley did not agree with his Secretary of War. The Presi- dent was urged to order an investiga- tion not only bye newspapers all over the country, but by letters from promi- nent men, without regard to party, and by some members of his Cabinet as well. The result was that Secretary Alger finally, on the eve of his depart ure from Washington, wrote letter asking that a commission be appointed to inquire into all the allegations of mismanagement in connection with the army.
 President McKinlev has rendered places on the proposed commission to investigate the War Department in re- lation to the conduct of the Hispano- American war to Lieutenant General Schofield, former commanding general of the army. to eX-Senator John B. Gordon of Georgia and to former s C. retary of N ar Lamont. It is probable also that a retired medical officer of high rank will be selected. The com mission is to be named in time to meet next Thursday, September 15.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The Herald correspondent sends the following from Washington: President Mckinley has so far needed the voice of public opin- ion that he has decided to order an investigation of the .blunders Of the War Department. It is not yet ofn- cially admitted that the President has decided upon this course. All that is acknowledged is that Secretary Alger has asked for such an investigation.
 Secretary Alger, however, only asked for an investigation after the President had plainly made him understand 1t was his desire that such request should be made. The Secretary of War did not want an investigation. He did not think it necessary. Secretary Alger pointed out that the first reports of the conditions at the camps had been shown to have been exaggerated, and he thought if matters were allowed to go on without an investigation. the weak spots would be discovered and

PARIS, Sept. 9.-There Is a lull in the Dreyfus case. It is believed that the real difficulty in the way of revision is that the only documents really relied upon are those said to have been ob- tained illicitly from a foreign Embassy and the Government Is beginning to doubt the authenticity of these. A semi- official note issued to-day denies that any foreign Government has made any sort of communication to the French Gov ernment relative to the Dreyfus case.

University Public Schools squabble at
Last in Fair Way to Settlement;
Another Meeting Monday

The night in the University school dis
trict over the sixth teacher for the public
school bids fair to be settled amicably in
the near future. Concessions have been
made by the partisans of Miss Clark, and
the members of the school board have ex-
pressed willingness to meet their critics
half way In any compromise.
At meeting of the board held last night
in Wilson'S hall, the resignation of Miss
Ethel H. Geddes was presented to the
board. On motion of Mr.. Miller, seconded
by Mr.. Osborn, the resignation was ac-
cepted.
Messrs. Thomas Lloyd, P. J. Wilson and
e. H. Flanders, as committee from the
residents of the district, presented Pc
tition, with seventy-eight signatures,
stating that we, the residents, of the Uni
versity school district, wishing to express
our views on the school matter that has
caused so much Ill feeling. condemn any
measures adopted to intimddate the trus-
tees. While the trustees have authority
to vote as they please, the people expected
Messrs. O d. Osborn and Arson Miller to
vote for the reelection of Miss Matte
Clark" When Mr.. Osborn's vote against
Miss Clark became known. 1.-The people
were greatly annoyed. and apparently Mr..
Osborn owes them an apology" Mr.. Muir
dock, whose course has been consistent
throughout the whole affair, was asked to
vote for Miss Clark and thereby earn the
thanks Of the community and restore har-
mony, good feeling and confidence"
After reading the petition Mr.. Lloyd said
that a number of the children in the dis
trict had been without school facilities for
a week, and the people desired to have the
matter settled as soon as possible and the
sixth teacher employed. AS Miss Matte
Clark would be most satisfactory to all,
they asked the board to meet them in q
spirit of fairness and end the unpleasant
ness by re-electing Miss Clark.
Mr.. Osborn stated that he had no apobot
gy to make, and gave his reasons for break
ing his promise and voting against Miss
Clark, He said so much trouble and Ill
feeling had been stirred up by the false re-
ports circulated throughout the district
that he believed the work Of the school
would be crippled II Miss Clark were re-
employed, 50 he had voted against her
! He asked the committee to strike out the
clause requesting an apology from the
petition, and seemed willing to accede to
the demand for Miss Clark's reelection
If this were done. The members Of the
committee said they were simply empow.
cred to present the petition and not change
Its wording. Their task was done an6
they withdrew.
| After discussing the matter for few
moments. the trustees adjourned, to NEE
at 2 O'Clock Monday afternoon, when Miss
Clark will probably be re-emplOyed auC
