The news that is NOW most enxIously
awaited from Dewey'st squadron at Ma
Mia is that which shall tell the cost of
the victory. How many American lives
were paid, and who were those patriots
that shed their blood for their country?
The information so far received bearing
nothing. One of the commanders first
cares will be to send the news home to
those so anxiously waiting for it. Mean
time, even the mothers and wives of the
Americans in the far East will share in
the popular pride for the dashihg brilllan-
cy of the Asiatic squadron's achievement.

Moves Col. Bryan to Tell Alabamians What
He Can't Talk About.

Montgomery. Ala, Dec. .. - Colonel
w. J. Bryan. of the Third Nebraska,
was received Saturday by the two
houses of the general assembly. He
was introduced by the president of the
senate and declined to discuss public
questions, saying: Being a soldier I
cannot speak to you with the freedom
of a civilian. l would speak, if 1 spoke
at all, under limitations that would be
unpleasant to me. What 1 would desire
to say to you as n citizen I could not
say IS a soldier ] cannot now discuss
these things that at present engage the
attention Of the entire nation.
Neither would 1 care to discuss those
things we discussed two years ago. but
which are not yet laid away to external
rest. Neither could L discuss those mat
tiers which give as n result of the late
war a broad field for speculation.
There was considerable enthusiasm as
Colonel Bryan resumed his seat.

Kent farm about one mile west of this
city, where resides his aged mother.
The scene when the old lady saw the
mauEIed remains of her son, killed by
his only brother, were affecting in the
extreme. The murderer was n man of
peculiar traits. After being graduated
from the high school in the class Of
1888 he went 10 New York and was
graduated from school of phren0lOEy.
Prior to his fathers death in March he
made several attempts to gain Il Hveli-
hood by its practice, but failed. At this
writing the officers have not been able
to capture him. although his escape is
not considered possible. 1t is ruIored
that he had secured nearly 81 0GO in
money from his mother"
