The Indictment Would Not Hold.

The trial of Charles Ross, charged with
numbering Waltuce Benson, an Indian,
on the Yakima reservation, was brought
to an abrupt ending in the federal court
at Seattle last week on a ruling by Judge
Hanford, who qusshed the indictment,
holding that Ross, not being an Indian,
could not be tried on a charge OF murder
committed on an Indian reservation.
Ross mother WAS u Yakima Indian
squaw and his father was q French Ca
madam. The indictment OF the grand
jury charging him with murder did not
state that the defendant was an Indian.
Judge Hanford held that the general
criminal law Of the United States was not
sufficient to give the court jurisdiction to
try person other than an Indian on a
charge of having committed murder on
an Indian reservation, for the reason that
by the terms of the enabling act federal
jurisdiction over such crime was not
exclusively retained by the federal gov.
eminent.

Admiral Dewey Asks the German Ad-
miral Very Pertinent Question.
NILES NOW ON TO Porto RICO
The Surrender Of Santiago Gives US the East
ern End Of Cuta-A Narrow Escape From
the Ravages OF Yellow Fever-We Are
Now After, Spain's Last Fleet.

General Toral who was in command of
the Spanish forces in Santiago surren-
dered to General Shafter last Monday
and now the stars and stripes float over
that city. An effort was made by the
Spanish general to have his troops retain
their arms bnt in vain, and $4,000 sol
diers Of Spain marched ont of Santiago
and laid down their arms in surrender to
IL, 900 Americans. This timely capitua-
ton was fortunate as yellow fever had
begun to make its appearance among our
men. All Spanish soldiers who desire
are to be returned home at the expense of
the United States.
Our next move will be on Porto Rico
for which preparations are now under
way. General Miles will conduct the
campaign there in person and has already
started for the scene OF action.
Commodore Watson's feet is almost
ready to sail for Spain where he will be
expected to demolish the remaining Span
ish feet. He will then proceed to Ma
Mia to assist Dewey who has net been
doing any aggressive work pending the
arrival OF more lhelp.
There is feet Of five powerful Ger
man warships at Manila that portend no
good TO our cause. One Of them inter.
fered between the insurgents and Spanish
short time ago and was forced by Amer
lean ships to retire, and another refused
to halt in response to Dewey's orders un-
til he threw shot across her bows. AT.
ter this he sent messenger to the Ger.
man admiral to inquire whether America
and Germany are at peace or at war. II
they are at peace, he demanded that the
German warships pursue different
course. II they are at war he wanted to
know it, 30 he could govern himself &C.
cordingly.
Admiral Won Diedrich, in comm and OF
the German feet in the Pacific, returned
verbal answer, which was apologize in
tone, and satisfactory.

For some centuries man has had more
or less sport with the gamecock; but
few days ago, in Uniondale. n. J., a
gamecoek started out with the inten-
ton of turning the tables and having
sport with men. He strutted off his
owners premises one afternoon and
started out to see the town The first
representatives of the town that he saw
were lot of school children, whom he
frightened quite seriously Emboldened
by his success, and probably much
amused at the spectacle of several large
beings scampering away from his aggres-
sive beak and spurs. like, let us say,
chickens before a man. he continued on
his way and presently met an old gentle
man named William Green The bellig-
erent bird flew at Mr. Green, with the
evident intention of reducing his antago-
mist to nutmeg crater. Mr.. Green
kicked. So did the gamecock The lat
ter varied the process by flying over Mr..
Green's head, knocking off his derby hat,
and ',--ei-- a. -" -< Ialas SO that 1t

looked like considerably less than thirty
cents. The agile bird lodged between
its opponents legs, tackling like foot
ball player, and Mr.. Green found out how
much real fun there is In a thoroughbred
gamecock when he is out for the purpose
of amusing himself instead of his human
hackers. Finally the owner Of the fowl
appeared on the scene, and by the base
method Of overpowering the insurgent by
force of numbers-two human beings to
one bird-secured the runaway and car
ried off a squawking armful of feathers.
muscle, and needle-like spurs.
or course, the encounter was incon-
venient for Mr.. Green, who swears that
he will make the gameeock's owner pay
for his spoiled headgear; but it is useful
object lesson for all that 1t is good for
us to remember now and then that the
human race has not all the bravery there
is in the world. An old hen flying at
a dog who Is worrying her chickens
shows as much courage as an American
woman would in attacking an elephant.
Despite his final defeat, it looks as if the
gamecock had rather the best of it in
this New Jersey combat.

Congress is going TO take IA peep into

ENGLISH COMMENTS
UPON THE MESSAGE
The Pail Mall Gazette Considers 1t
Conspicuous Because of Its
Moderation.

London, Dec. 1.-The Pail Mall Gazette
says that considering the circumstances
under which it was composed and the ma
ture of the events with which it is neces-
sarily concerned, President McKinley's
message made be said to be conspicuous
in respect of its moderation. Speaking of
the Nicaragua Canal the Gazette says
the two nations stand upon an equal foot
ing in respect of its control and this fact
will afford the United States a ready
made opportunity for practically demon
strating her present assurances of friend
ship.
1--WE are convinced" the paper adds,
that when the time comes there will be
no disposition on the part of the United
States to question our position of friend
ly equality
The St. James Gazette says that new
issues have been faced in a broad-minded
way and the solution of various problems
suggested upon large and generous lines.

FORCIBLE REMARKS

official remarks yesterday concerning the
recent diatribe of Senor Sagasta, in which
the Spanish premier declared that ths
work of the American Commissioners had
been shameful in its character. together
with other discourteous references To
America and her representatives.
Senator Davis adds.
''Sagasta's declaration is malapropos.

way of taking testimony. 1t was an
nounced that Col. Hecker. of the trans

generals office. who recently returned
from Cuba, and the paymaster general,
would give the committee the benefit OF
their observations. but neither one put
in an appearance up to noon.
The members of the committee spent
the morning hours discussing facts al
ready obtained and what may be obtain
ed during the remaining days of its
work
1t is now said that the committee hopes
to hear all testimony before the begin

On the whole, We are inclined to think
il would be better for Mr. Choate to seek
an elective office of some sort in a place
where there is a good, large, and sanguine
Irish-American constituency. Since the
London papers have unearthed his speech
in 1898, in the course of which he exhorted
all sons of Erin TO go home and cut the
throat of the cruel and bloodthirsty lion,
it is doubtful if Choate would be alto
gether persona grata at the Court of st.
James. What he said may have been ut
tered in the heat of argument and only
for local and temporary political effect
But it is also probable that objection to
his distinguished personality will also be
made in the heat of argument in Eng
land and that the argument in question
will be eminently conclusive.
