cant official letter transmitted there
with. 1t includes an emergency ap-
propriation of $1O,OoO,OW for the navy.
The items of appropriation follow:

HAWAII OUR ALLY.
Throws Her Fortunes With the
United States.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The naval
officials now calculate that Hawaii has
become an ally of the United States
Government in the present war with
Spain, and that at this moment our
Government is responsible for the pro-
lection of Hawaii and from the conse-
quences of their friendship for the
United States.
According to the calculations of the
officials of the Navy Department. the
United States cruiser Charleston ar
rived at Honolulu last Saturday. She
has probably completed the taking
aboard Of a full coal supply, and is
now again on her way westward bound
for the Philippines. The coal was ac-
cumulated at Honolulu by the United
States Consul, General Haywood. and
in allowing the Charleston to take on
a supply to carry on operations against
Spanish territory, the Government of
Hawaii has cast away all semblance of
neutrality in the present contest, and
has thrown her fortunes with the
United States and unless we protect
her she is subject to punishment at the
hands of Spain.
Moreover, the offense against neutral
ity is to be repeated. for it is expected
to-day the advance guard Of the trans
ports carrying troops to Manila are en-
tering Honolulu harbor to replenish
their coal supply.

In Committee Of the Whole, Cannon
explained the presentation of the meas
ure He said it was the policy OF the
Committee on Appropriations to hold
back the general deficiency bill until
practically the close of the session, in
order to catch up all items that may
develop as necessary up to the latest
moment of the session. Meantime the
present bill was urgent, and had been
reported for present consideration, be
cause its items could not wait upon the
general deficiency bill. incidentally
he estimated the appropriations al
ready made on account of the war and
likely to develop as essential, including
the first six months of the coming fiscal
year, at $500, 100000.
In response to question from Ding
ley, Cannon said the war would cost
approximately 5000, ,O00,OoO, provided il
should continue one year
A suggestion from Fitzgerald Cd OF
Massachusetts that cooks should be
provided for the troops at Camp Aiger
precipitated a discussion upon the con-
ditions which exist there. Such veter-
ans as Grosvenor, Cannon and Living
ston of Georgia discoursed upon the
necessity of soldiers undergoing in the
process of hardening what seemed
grave hardships compared with condi-
tions to which they We're accustomed al
home. They drew comparisons be-
tween present conditions and those ex-
listing in the civil war. showing thai
present provisions are better.
Gaines (D) of Tennessee vigorously
criticised the War Department for al

IN THE HANDS
 OF TEE SHERIFF.
Captain Duncan's ease on the Charge of Desecrating Graves Is Heeom-
 ing More Complicated.

Washington, Aug, 3l Captain Louis c. Duncan, surgeon of the Twenty. sec ond Kansas regiment, is held by the sheriff of Fairfax county, Virginia, to answer an indictment charging him with desecrating Confederate graves at Bull Run, near Manassas
 1t appears that Dr Duncan, whose case has now become famous, was nos sentenced to five years imprisonment, as reported from Camp Meade Pa, but escaped much more lightly Ut the hands of the military court, there being lack of evidence to prove that he actually took part in despoihng the graves.
 On the first specification, that of hay. ing participated iii the dissertation, he was acquitted, but on the second speci. fieation, that of conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline, the court found him guilty.
 The finding of the eourtmartial, ap- proved by General Davis, was that Sur geon Duncan be deprived of his rank for two months, be confined to regimental camp and forfeit half his pay for the same length of time and that he be rep rimanded by the commanding general.
 How Dr. Duncan is to be confined to regimental camp for months, when he is now the prisoner of the sheriff of Fair fax county Is difficult to understand

They expressed themselves to the effect that when they are once mustered out, they are through forever with soldering, and that they would only wear soldiers uniform under compulsion again.

INSTRUCTIONS TO
 THE COMMISSIONS.
Cuba Will Be Taken Charge of by the Government the Same IS
 at Santiago.

Washington, Aug. 31.-The instruc- tions to the Cuban and Porto Rlcan military commissioners were drawn up and approved by the president before he left Washington and are now ready to be delivered to the president of each before he leaves. The instructions will not be made public, but their general terms are known to be the same as the structions sent to General Shafter re- garding the government of Santiago and to General Merritt regarding the Phil. ippines. This will mean that the mlli- tary commission will take control of Cuba and Porto Rico the same as the military governor now controls that portion of Cuba surrendered to the United States after the Santiago cam paign. The many minor details rela- tive to the evacuation of the islands are left to the commissions which will re- port any difficulty or disputed point at Washington. There never has been doubt that the United States would take full control of Porto Rico, but the in- structions to the Cuban military com mission settles all questions regarding that, and means that for the present at least, the United States will assume the government and control of the re. mainder of the island as has been the case i'll Santiago.
