Protection for Volunteers Insurance,

Superintendent OF Insurance Orear, OF
Missouri, Is preparing to keep an accu-
rate record of the Missouri volunteers
who have enlisted in the United States
army Tonight he will send man
from his Office to Jefferson barracks with
blanks which will be filled out by the
men, which will give information to the
Insurance department regarding them
and the companies which take war risks
These blanks are designed to receive the
name, company, regiment and residence
Of each soldier; if insured, in what COM
pany, amount, and the beneficiary where
policies are deposited; what provision Is
made for payment of premiums during
the absence of the insured whether or
not an extra war premium has been re-
quired and whether or not the cancella
tion of any policy has been made by any
company because Of enlistment in mill
tary service. The object Of this infOr-
nation is to keep a record of those who
are engaged in the war who are insured,
that the department may be Of service
in keeping the policies in force; to aid in
collecting the money in case of death,
and to find out what companies are exact
ing war premium.

Spanish Report Of Dewey's Victory

Madrid, May 14.-A dispatch to the
Liberal from Manila, dated May and
sent by a special steamer to Hong Kong,
says:
"'Hhe arsenal has surrendered and Ca
vite has been evacuated by our troops
The Spanish losses were 300 men killed
and 600 men wounded. The enemy suf-
fered considerably, including an officer
killed on the Olympia The Baltimore
was damaged Our shells did not burst,
and all the enemy's shells burst
Admiral Dewey has had a long con-
sultatiOn with the foreign cOnsuls.
"rhe Yankees took and burned the
merchant ships. COrregidor island was
betrayed.
A consultative assembly is discussing
the horrible situation created by hunger
and misery. We are isolated by the
blockade and are in fear of an imme-
diate attack.
"Since the cable was cut little new has
happened. The blockade continues; but
Admiral Dewey says he will not lombard
the town without his governments or

Italian Riots Growing Serious.

Vienna, May 19.-News has been re-
ceived Of fresh conflicts between peasants
and the military outside Milan. The re-
ports from IunO show that the riOting
there was more serious than at first re-
ported. The Duke and Duchess of SAKE
Meiningen had a very narrow escape
from violence at the hands of the mob
and the pavement was covered with
dead and dying after the customs Off
cials fired at Pisa. t
Three thousand frenzied petrOleuses
took part in the riots at LeghOrn. The
rioters soaked the doors of the churches
with petroleum, intending to fire them,
but the troops frustrated the plot. 1t
is reported that the government intends
to call out 100000 men in the Milanese
district. Milan is already held by large
force, but the court martials there have
given fresh proof of the organized ma
ture OF the rioters.

No rlOre Troops Just Now,

Washington, May 19.-There is talk at
the War department of the possibility
of an issue by the President of another
call for volunteers, but careful inquiry
tends to warrant the statement that this
is at least premature, and that no fur
ther call is likely to issue until the ag-
gregate number of soldiers already
called for have responded and have been
duly equipped for service This last
matter, the equipment of the new troops,
The Advocate and news., 1898-05-25

should be neglected, and 1t is no excuse
for delay in organizing an army that
will insure the triumph Of our cause
in whatever land the war is to be pros
ecuted."
The majority of the press seems to
favor more vigorous action. The Ma
nlla victory gave papers belonging to
that class substantial encouragement.
It will be remembered, though, that
the hurry up" class was in evidence
in LincOln's day and that the govern
ment went ahead and worked out the
country's salvation on its own line with
out giving much attention It Is fair
to assume that the government, being
in possession Of more information on
the subject than all others combined,
Is in much the best position to deter
mine what should be done.

Prince Bismarck Condemns the War

An Associated Press dispatch gives
what purports to be Prince Bismarck s
views on the war. 1t states that his
physical conditions are much worse.
His views are given as follows:
"The whole course of the Washington
administration has been insincere. My
views of war are well understood.
have always held that it is only de-
fensible after all other remedies had
failed. The result of the war cannot
be wholesome either to America or Eu-
rope The United States will be forced
to an intermeddling policy, leading to
unavoidable frictions. She thus aban-
dons her traditional peace policy, and,
in order to maintain her position, she
must become naval and a military
power-an expensive luxury which her
geographic position rendered unneces-
sary Americas change of front means
retrogression in the high sense of civil
ization, This is the main regrettable
fact about the war"

Washington, May 19.-Secretary Long

making the entire circuit of South
America, and was now safe. Whether
or not she has joined Admiral Samp-
sons fleet the Secretary would not say.
The rigid secrecy of the Navy depart
ment was relaxed only enough to make
known the news. In all, the trip COW

The Patriotism of Corporations.

All the Western railroads have decided
to charge but cent a mile for moving
troops to the front 1t is now in order
for the POpulst kickers to start fresh
torrent of abuse upon the plutOcrats of
the railway companies. If some of the
chronic GROWERS will show as much pa
tri0tism as the sO-called plutOcrats have
shown it will be more creditable to the
growler and more satisfactory to the
CLntry.-AtChisOn Champion (Rep).
The above would all be very nice if
the railroads had not agreed to charge
2 cents and were only prevented from
doing so by the determined action of the
government in refusing to pay more than
