Wants the Treaty Taken Up.

Washington, Dec. 28.-It is the in
tention of Senator Davis to ask the
committee on foreign relations to take
up the peace treaty as soon as re
ceived from the president. One pres
ent plan of those senators opposed to
straight ratification is to urge the in
sertion of an amendment providing in
specific terms that the United States
shall not acquire sovereignty over the
Philippine islands under any circum-
stances. The opponents of the treaty
say they do not anticipate a long de-
bate in the senate.

YALE HAD TO RUN.

Washington, June s.-While on recent
scout duty off thu Cuban coast the auxili-
airy cruiser Yale, formerly the Paris,
escaped capture by Spanish war vessel
only through her high steaming qualities.
All the scouts, and especially the larger
ones, have reported their encounters with
the same vessel, which proved to be the
Alfonso Kill, and most of them were
compelled to take to their heels because OF
the lack OF sufficient batteries to give
battle. The single exception has been the
St. Paul, which carries rath er formid-
able battery, and is capable, Captain
Sigsbee her commander says, of taking
care of herself and any of the Spanish
ships around Cuban waters, with the ex-
ception of those now in Santiago harbor.
The Alfonzo is a converted warship of
not over 16 knots speed and intended to
serve as a transport.
A few days ago, while the Yale was
proceeding up the coast of Porto Rico,
She fell foul of the Alfonso, and immedi.
ately there was a lively chase, the Ameri-
can ship having nothing in the shape of
ordnance on board but two 6-pounders,
while the Spanish vessel made it lively
for her with her and inch rapid-tire
guns

How Daniel Murphy Was Hacked to
death by His Eighteen Year Old Son.

Dispatches from Mars Hill, under date
of June 2, tell the following story of the
brutal murder there which has been
briefly reported in the PRESS:

old man by his 1S-year-old son, who, not
content with his unnatural crime, hacked
to pieces and horribly mangled the body
of his victim, occurred last night IN the
eastern part of this town, near the Cana
dian boundary.
The victim was Daniel Murphy, who
recently moved to this town, and who
is but little known in the vicinity. HIS
family consisted of a wife and several
sons.
The murderer was recently discharged
from the State prison in Thonaston for
a robbery committed in H0ulton, two or
three years ago. Other members OF the
family are said to have Jail records.
Last night the young man, Daniel r:
Murphy, accompanied by his 15,year:oid
brother, Leon, was over across the line,
starting for home The murder was the
outcome Of quarrel, presumably caused
by the two boys coming home intoxicated.

young man as soon as she appeared on
the scene. 1t is not known what part,
If any, the younger son took in the
affair.
A coroner and Sheriff Hersom of Blaine
