Lewiston, were released
Sunday upon bonds on two
charges, amounting to S21oo
each. The fathers of the boys
came to their assistance, paid
the Indians for the stolen cat
tie and put up the bonds. The
complaining Indians traced, as
they claim, cattle worth over
5000 to the delivery made to
Dowd & Shaw last June. The
sum was paid in cash and good
bonds were furnished in the
sum of $4,000 for the appear

good deal of attention, but the
Indians lost all interest in the
criminal proceedings when
they were reimbursed. 1t is

On Sunday last the members Of

Our Regiment now has quinsette,
composed Of Messrs. Reid Miller,
tenor: Chas. Gentry. soprano; Chal-
mers Hughes, baritone; George Baker
and Joe Trowbridge, bass. They
have selection Of about eight pretty
pieces, and are learning new ones
cvcry day. One Of tho pieces they
sing is "Bobby Boxer" the latest
war song. They have been invited 20
sing this song at musicale to be
given in Chattanooga on the first Of.
July. Bobby Boxer" was written
in honor Of Gen. Gordon, and is very
popular with the soldiers. This quin-
tette is known as Col. Tillman's Q and
he is very proud Of them, and fre-
quently takes them on pleasure trips
through the surrounding country.

SERIOUS WATER PROBLEM.
Only Bracl6ish Wells, Cisterns and
Barrels at Key West.

KEY WEST, Fla, May 1.-THE water
problem is serious at this place Naval Of
hcers recognize it and they are looking
anXiously for the smoke from the stack Of
the big government condenser which is
promised TO supply 10000 gallons daily per
contract The plant should have started
April rs, but is not yet in operation The
officers in charge of this station are skep-
teal Of the condenser's ability to produce
10000 gallons Key Vests water resources
are most primitive and limited. The shall
low wells in town are all more or less
brackish and under suspicion of surface
drainage. Two companies at various times
have driven artesian wells 1880 and 1900
feet deep. but they have never secured
fresh water. The town lives by cisterns and
rain barrels. These cisterns, filed during
the rainy season. usually run very low by
the close of the dry season, which is now
due. This year, In addition to the rains COM
ing very late, the town has had its popula-
ton doubled by the presence of troops ship
and war vessels and the army of newspaper
correspondents and their tugs, which YES

erS. OF course, the war vessels and some
OF the hospital and other craft have con-
denSers, but the draft on the towns supply
is still abnormal. The torpedo boats are
without condensing apparatus, and they
have been scouting for fresh water as keen
ly as buccaneers after Spanish galleons;
Every discovery of fresh cistern is hailed
like a strike in the Klondike and every
gallon of water has three purchasers, all
with money and anxious to outbid each
other.
In these circumstances IL is not astonish-
ing that water has advanced from 112 cents
TO 10 cents gallon within the past two
months. All who can afford it Chat is to
say, the newspaper correspondents and the
officers) drink bottled water. but a dearth
of this supply is approaching. Most of the
unpretentious brands of bottled water are 81
d gallon. and live" water is 10 cents a pint
by the 100 bottles. To make matters worse
the drug stores let their supply of water run
out before telegraphing for more, and there
is a corner on water between the grocery
store hotel and Cuban, Club. The govern
ment reservoir at the naval station. from
which the engine room is supplied, contains
less than 2,00O gallons of water, and it is re-
ported among the dispatch boats that there
is less than 1000 gallons of rain water avail
able in town and this of a very poor quality

Salisbury that in case of a change in the
form OF government in the Philippines Ger
in possession of certain guarantees, with the
view of maintaining German interests
Count Hatzfeldt- Wildenburg, according to-
the correspondent, pointed out to Lord Sal-
isbury that Germany had to take into ac-
count the possibility that Great Britain in
order TO protect British subjects in the
Philippines, might be compelled to land an
adequate force at Manila, in which case
Germany would do likewise. Lord Sails
bury replied that he recognized the justice
of this declaration, but designated the sup
position that England has such intentions

Secret Treaty Between the Twin Re-

wards This Government.

Copyright. 1898. by the Associated Press)
SANTO DOMINGO, May 5.-Negotiations
for the conclusion of a political and COM
mercial treaty have been conducted by the
minister of the United States for some
months, and row give fair promise of COM
plete success so far as the desires of the
American government are concerned. The
correspondent of the Associated Press has it
from the very best authority that the terms
of the proposed treaty are immensely more
favorable to America than those OF the
treaty Of 1864 between the United States and
Haiti. The significance of this statement
may be partly judged when 1t is remem-
bered that the Haitien treaty gives to
America, as against any enemy in time of
war, privileges of the utmost Importance.
There are other political features of the
proposed treaty equally striking which it
would be indiscreet to divulge now. The
commercial clauses establish reciprocity as
to customs dues and regulations between the
United States and Santo Domingo. 1t is
unfortunate that the exigencies of the situa-
ton in regard to the position of Haiti in
connection with the INSTRUMENTATION war
prevents the presence of Minister Powell in
this CAPITAL at this time. 1t is understood
that he originally intended to leave Port au
Prince for Santo Domingo on the 10th OF
May, and high Dominican officials have en-
tertained the hope that at the proposed visit
the affair of the treaty would be finished
1t is understood, however, that Mr.. Powell
fears he will be unable to carry out the ar
rangement, because Of matters requiring his
Immediate attention at Port au Prince under
the treaty between Haiti and the United
States.
The documents containing the rough
drafts of the points agreed upon are in the
possession of the American minister, and he
alone can personally conclude the business.
II the settlement is long delayed there is
danger that the representatives of other
powers may ascertain some of the more I'M
portant clauses of the treaty, and by de-
manding equal concessions to their own
governments embarrass its contamination.
