dents OF NOV. n, by messenger from

ANOTHER SERIOUS RIOT OCCURRED
During the Funeral of a Victim of the
Sunday Night Riot, Cubans and Span
iards Came Together-News Received
of Recent Rioting at santo Domingo.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-The Brook.
Ign, Texas, Castine and Resolute have
been ordered to Havana
While there is not the faintest desire
to convey a threat in the dispatch of
these warships to Havana, it may be
noted that when they lie within the
harbor they will hold the town in per-
feet subsection. 1t is surmised that the
suggestion came from Admiral Samp
son, who is now in one of the suburbs
of Havana. as a result of the unfortu-
nate eruption Sunday night at the
Hotel Inglaterra. At any rate the event
brought the authorities to sudden re-
alization of the exact state of affairs in
Havana, and the imminent danger of
another such outbreak. which perhaps
might run into the proportions of riot
and cost many innocent lives.

EXPANSION STANDS.
Rejection of Treaty Would Not
Effect It.
TERRITORY OUR OWN FOR GOOD.
High Authority Said All That Would
Fail Would BE the Treaty-Otis to Is
sue Proclamation to the Filipinos.
To Remove Spanish Prisoners.

WASHINGTON. Dec. IA failure on
the part of the United States senate to
ratify the peace treaty would have much
less effect than has been anticipated by
the public. None of the acts that have
gone before would be necessarily re-
called. and the United States govern
ment would not relinquish any OF its
conquests. The Philippines would be
ours, being III possession thereof. Porto
Rico and Guam would belong to us be-
You'd question, and we should dominate
Cuba with military government just
as before the act of rejection. AS high
authority put it, all that would fail
would be the treaty.
The government is now giving atten-
ton to the adjustment of affairs in the
Philippines to meet the new conditions
and the subject has been discussed at
some length between the president and
secretary OF state and secretary of war,
though it has not figured very largely
IN the proceedings of the full cabinet
circle.
10 influence tho insurgents to give up
their prisoners General Otis, the mill
tary commandment at Manila, will issue
proclamation to all of the Filipinos
advising them of the acquisition of the
Philippines by the United States and of
the presidents desire to accord them
the utmost liberty of action. The con-
dition, of course, will be imposed that
the people prove themselves worthy of
the confidence reposed in them and re-
fraln from acts of lawlessness.
The administration is disposed to af-
ford the Spanish Trans Atlantic COM
pany an opportunity to contract for
the removal to Spain of the Spanish
troops now i'll the Philippines, provided
the terms offered are reasonable. This
company has been transporting to Spain
the Spanish troops In Cuba.
The exection of this task cannot be
deferred until the exchange of ratifica-
lions Of the treaty of peace, but under
the terms of special article must be
undertaken at once.
The maximum time allowed by the
treaty for the exchange of Publications
is six months from the date of sigma
ture, so that this ceremony must take
place on or before June 10 next.

BRYAN'S ATTITUDE.
Favors Confirming the Treaty, but PIac-
ing New Territory In Same Posi-
ton as Cuba.

SAVANNAH, Dec. 14.-Colonel w. j.
Bryan, upon leaving his command, the
Third Nebraska regiment, gave an in
terview, III which he declared himself
opposed to imperialism, declaring that
Jefferson was not an imperialist but an
expansionisti fayoring taking territory
on this continent, but not foreign terri
tory.
When asked how the colonial policy
could be prevented, Colonel BRYAN said
in part:
"Some think that the fight should be
made against ratification of the treaty,
but would prefer another plan. If the
treaty Is rejected, negotiations must be
renewed and instead of settling the
question according to our ideas we
may settle it by diplomacy, with the
possibility of international complica-
lions. 1t will be easier. think, to end
the war at once by ratifying the treaty
and then deal with the subject in our
Own way. The issue can be presented
directly by q resolution OF congress de-
claring the policy of the nation upon
this subject.
The president, in his message, say S
that our only purpose in taking posses
SiOA Va GSuOd ID W GStdDllSu u stable
government and then turn that govern
ment over to the people of Cuba. Con-
gress could reaffirm this purpose in re-
gard to Cuba and assert the same pur-
pose in regard to the Philippine islands
and Porto Rico. Such a resolution
would make a clear issue between the
doctrine of self government and the
doctrine of Imperialism. We should re-
serve harbor and coaling station in
Porto Rico and the Philippines in re-
turn for services rendered, and l think
we would be justified i'll asking the
same concession from Cuba.
''In the case of Porto Rico, where the
people have as yet expressed no desire
for an independent government, we
might with propriety declare our will
ingness to annex the island if the citi-
zens desire annexation; but the Philip
pine islands are too far away and their
people too different from ours to be an
nexed TO the United States even if they
! desired IT..
Colonel Bryan left Savannah for
Washington. He intends to enter act
lively into the fight against the colonial
policy

WAS A PENITENTIARY MAN.

On Thursday afternoon on the corner of

couversing. Some twenty feet to the east
of them was another man. He seemed 10
be nervous and with head bent down was
unconsciously walking back and forth.
He would invariably turn at the distance
of about eight feet. One of the two men
said:
do you know that man walking there?'
NO, he is a stranger 10 me"
"Well, 1 don't know him either, but I'll
bet you a cigar that he has served term
in the penitentiary."
How do you know?"
Note the distance that he walks and
turns. man learns that only in cell
where he has been long confined. Having
nothing to do but brood over their troubles
they walk just like Gagged lion"
With that he walked up to the fellow
and asked him If he had ever been in the
pen. The man addressed, with a peculiar
look on his face. turned and walked down
Douglas avenue without word.

Used A KANSAS IDEA.

Five years ago J. Giles Smith won an
aluminium stamp box at whist party
given by Mrs. John Hutchins. He has car
ried it with him ever since. Last October
when Mr.. Smith was in New York in the
Office OF a big Insurance company, tho
president came in and was wondering
what sort Of a scheme he could get up for
advertising. Mr.. Smith Immediately
showed him the stamp box and suggest ed
that it was handy and would be effective
as an advertisement. The insurance man
said nothing. but on Wednesday Of this
week the western representative OF the
company brought several hundred of the
boxes to Wichita. They are exact dupli-
Gates Of the one Mr.. Smith showed in
New York, except the company's adver-
-isement. The insurance people had ten
thousand Of them made. Kansas gets its
ideas into everything.
