MIR. UNDERHILL's "THE RIVALS"
His ImpersOnation of Sheridan's Fa-
NOUS Comedy.

His ImpersOnation of SIeridan's Fa-
NOUS Comedy.
Mr.. Charles F. Underhill gave a mono
logue PRESERVATION of 1.-The Rivals at the
Guards Hall last night. 1t was the third
entertainment in the Y. M. c. A. Star
Course. The hall was filled with an intel
ligent audience.
1t is not an easy task to present half a
dozen or more characters without the aid
of costumes or scenery. A dress suit is
not at best a costume that BELTS bluff Sir
Anthony or Mrs. Malaprop perhaps, but
Mr.. Underhill succeeded in giving to- his
audience a delightful personation of the
characters made familiar by Jeffer son
and Mrs. Drew. Mrs. Malaprop, with Eer
delightful vagaries of diction, and advice
upon what don't become a young woman ;
the irascible Sir Anthony Absolute, i'm
pressing upon his son the example of cool
ness, which he so well represents, and
ValorouS Bob Acres, We're skillfully pre-
scented. The character of "Sir Anthony"
pleased most.
The play was not given in its entirety,
the introduction, the episode of Julia and
Faulkner and the final scene being omit
ted. There were also some interpola lions
Upon the whole, however the entertain
ment was thoroughly enjoyable, and it
will be some time before Mr.. Underhill
will to cote Mrs. Malaprop," be "illtera-
ted" from the memory of those who heard
him.

SPANIARDS MUST GO.

WASHINGTON, November 15.-The
government has renewed and
strengthened its determination that
the Spanish evacuation of Cuba and
the American occupation shall not be
deferred beyond January LIST next,
This conclusion has been communicate
ed to the Spanish government within
the last few days, in answer to an ur-
gent request that the date of evacua-
ton be put off, because the large
number of Spanish troops remaining
on the Island could not be moved be-
fore January LIST.

MUST STAY AT MANILA.

NEW YORK, November ia spe-
cial to the Sun from Washington says:
On account of the advices lately re-
ceived from Otis at Manila and be-
cause of the expectation of the admin
istration that the United States will
have occasion to establish garrisons
throughout the Philippine Islands in
a short time, it has been decided that
no elimination of the present militia
ry force in the Orient can be allowed
at present There is a tendency, on
the contrary, to believe that the ar
my in the Philippines should be in
creased in the near future.

FORTHCOMING MESSAGE
POLICY WILL ONLY BE OUTLINET
SLIGHTLY.
The President Suggests Military Gov
ernment for Year-Army to be
Raised to 100000.

NEW YORK, November 15.-The
Herald's Washington correspondent
sends the following:
Those who have been expecting
President Mckinley to make specific
recommendation i'm his annual mes
sage to Congress as to the future form
of government of the territory wrest-
ed from Spain will probably be disap-
pointed.
The message. now well under way,
will, understand, point out that it is
too early yet to reach decision in
this matter. The President appre-
ciates that Congress will desire to
have voice in shaping the policy in
regard to the future control of the
Philippines and Porto Rico; that con-
gressional commissions will probably
be appointed to visit these new pos
sions and to investigate and report
upon the conditions i'm each island,
and he is perfectly willing that ample
time should be allowed for all this to
he done. 1t is his purpose to have the
! conquered islands continued under
! strong military government pending
definite conclusion by the Executive
and Congress as to the future of these
| islands. He considers it will take at
least year to enable the American
people TO determine what our rela-
| tons should be toward the new pos
sessions. That the islands may be
| kept out of politics as much as pos
sible, it is his purpose to have all ISL
ands governed by military forces. and
with this idea i'm view army officers
will be assigned to perform all civil as
well as military functions.

NOTES ABOUT NErGHBoRs.

The Blakely Observer thinks it is no
wonder it doesn't rain in and about that
bailiwick, and gives this reason why /:
"TheIe are five men engaged in newspa-
per work in Blakely ard not one Of them
is connected with any church; of five
practicng physicians located here only
one is a member of a church and he isn't
o7erly pious; and of all our county Off
GERS, so says our informant, only ones
name is on a church book. The praying
membership of all the churches combin-
ed could not carry on a three days
prayer meeting, just to call on each
member to pray one time"
John Bailey and Jesse Handy, the two
negroes who were convicted in Calhoun
superior court of assassnating Mr. Jul.
ian King, have keen granted a new trial
by the supreme court These are the
negroes who were confined in the
Terrell Jail for safe-keepng, and carried
to Morgan under protection of the Daw-
son Guards at the time of the trial.

led soldiers of the Third left at Fort
Smelling. There are only about twenty-five
available men, and these will be sent to
Walker tomorrow morning.
The Journals staff correspondent at
Walker. Mimi, wires: Indian Commis-
sioner Jones was welcomed by the chiefs
who seemed glad he had come. He was
informed that runners from the Bear Is
land camp brought word that the braves
would receive any one for conference
except soldiers and marshals. If soldiers
came they would fight. They wanted to
go to Sugar Point, where the battle was
fought, for a conference, on the pretext
that steamers could not land at their
camp.
'"The messengers counted thirty bucks
in the camp and the latter claimed that
they had lost but one killed and two
squaws wounded in the battle. They were
all behind one tree and one bullet went
through the tree hitting all three"
The Journals correspondent at Cass
Lake wires: "Indian runners from the
South have passed here going North, and
from them information of a more eerious
nature than anything heard here hereto
fore has been obtained. The hostiles at
Bear Island have heard that Gen. Bacon
intends to attack them within forty-eight
hours and are busily engaged preparing
10 resist. The Indians are well posted
on everything that goes on at Walker,
and at the agency

Their runners are busily urging REIN

along the road, especially at points where

1T WAS a CAPTAINS FIGHT.
oregon, Texas and Iowa Did the
Work to Cerverass Fleet.

Work to Cervera's Fleet.
New York, Oct. 11.-Although the
American fleet in the battle off Santiago
on July obeyed the general orders Of
Rear Admiral Sampson given in advance
to meet just such an emergency, it was
essentially a captains fight" This is
the substance of the report Of the naval
board, which has been investigating dis
puted points in the battle.
Rear Admiral Sampson was not present,
and the two orders signalled by schley
close In" and "engage the enemy did
no good and were unnecessary, for the
ships had already closed in and were en-
gaging the enemy when the orders were
run up.
The board finds in a more general way
that each ship in the fleet knew exactly
what to do should Cervera come out and
did 1t when he actually came out. Each
captain fought his ship on plans prepared
and orders given by Sampson.
The findings of the board are summarized
as follows:
l. The battle was fought and won upon
plans prepared by Rear Admiral Sampson.
z. The directing of the movements of
ships done by schley during the battle
was inconsiderable.
8. The New York had no active part in
the fight.
4. The Brooklyn was not engaged at so
close quarters as had been reported by
the first report On an average she was
two miles away from the enemy.
.. The brunt of the fighting was borne
by the Oregon, Texas and Iowa.
6. The New York was about nine miles
from the Colon when that ship surrender
ed, and between four and five miles from
the nearest sister ship engaged-from
which signal distance is taken.
Z. The average range of the ships most
engaged was about a mile and half
The New York, the board finds did
nothing to affect the issue of the battle.
At the time of the hottest fighting (be-
tween TO and 1015 a. m) the Brooklyn
was in line with the Oregon, but three
quarters of a mile farther out to sea. The
Oregon at that time was pouring fire into
the Maria Teresa. The Oquendo was
about 5000 yards distant, with the Texas
and Iowa half mile to the rear of her.
The issues of the battle, the board learn
ed, was not affected by any signals that
Schley made from his flagship.
The Oregon dashed out from the very
beginning of the engagement and kept
within range of the enemy until the fight
ended
The board was made up of Lieutenant
Commander Richard Wainwright of the
Gloucester, presiding officer Lieut. Sam
uel Comfy of the Indiana, Lieut.. Lewis c.

Not n Point in the Protocol Yet Set
tied by Commissions.

Paris, oct. y, 1920 a. m,-AfteU fourth
joint session-lasting from O'Clock yes
terday afternoon to 4I5-the American
and Spanish peace commissions adjourn
ed without having reached a final con-
emsion as to any point in the protocol.
Thus far, there has been no joint form
ulation of crystalization of views TO be re-
turned by each commission to its govern
ment for embedding in The final treaty.
The question of the Philippines has not
yet been considered in joint session, though
the Americans, at their separate sessions,
have acquired exhaustive information
from persons who have lived in the Philip
pine Islands and done business there. They
are now, therefore, well equipped to dis
cuss the subject when it comes up. The
Spanish, it is believed. have asked
to have the Cuban debt as
sumed by the United States. urging
that the debt should pass with the SOW
ereignty The debt so presented for Amer
lean assumption covers the expense Of the
ten years insurrection, the recent insur-
rection and the war with the United
States. AS far as Spain's outlay in the
war can be classified against Cuba.
The Americans probably have replied
that if indeed any part Of the eo-oalled
Cuban debt is allowable, the part incur
red in suppressing 5nsurrections or in the
war with the United States Is not allow
able.
The Spanish viii doubtless also urge
equities in stocks, water front betterments,
public buildings ana perhaps war material.
1t Is possible that this contention will re-
ceive consideration on the basis Of equities
between mortgager and mortgage.
Thus far no disposition has developed on
either side to delay the ultimate conclu-
sions, and the end of the work in hand.
The American commissioners are anxious
TO conclude as soon as possible and on re-
cess days they are devoting from three to
five hours to discussions and details.
The adjournment yesterday (Tuesday,
was 10 Friday.

WILL ASSUME NO DEBT.
Peace Commissioner Have Not Pro-

Peace Commissioners Have Not Pro-
Gressed to the Philippine Question.
Washington, Oct. 1.-THE peace COM
missioners in Paris, so far from reaching
point of absolute variance on the ques-
tion of the Philippines. have not as yet
taken up that subject for consideration.
The commission, whenever meeting
jointly, has been engaged entirely with
three questions to the complete exclusion
of the Philippines. These questions related
entirely to Cuba, Porto Rico and Guam,
and, according TO the very last reports
from the American commissioners to
Washington, they are sim under consld-
Grafton.
The United States viii not assume any
financial Indebtedness as the result of ces-
sion or release of Cuba and Porto Rico.
1t was fully expected by the authorities
here that the Spanish contingent on the
peace commission would make a etrong
effort to make the assumption of the
heavy financial Obligations of these islands
a condition of the cession of Porto Rico
and the abandonment of sovereignty over
Cuba. But the American commissioners
were fully and definitely instructed on
these points, and the general tenor of these
instructions was that such obligations
were not to be assumed by the United
States
No dissatisfaction Is felt here at the
progress of the commission in the settle
ment OF the questions assigned TO 1t.
