The procuring Of men to serve as sub.
stitutes and to make up deficient quo
tas grew into business Of itself. and a
very profitable one at that. "Substi-
tute brokers' quickly appeared in great
numbers all over the North, and they
made enormous profits by agreeing to
fill quotas at so much per recruit.
Out of this business naturally grew
many abuses. For example, a firm Of
substitute brokers in q New England

of men who enlisted. mostly in the
navy, at Fort Monroe and other sta
tions on the Atlantic coast, at the be-
ginning of the war. had not been cred
tied TO the quota of any State. They
contrived, in some way best known to
themselves, to gain control of the list
of these men, and, notwithstanding the
fact that they had been in the service
several years, sold them in lots to suit
to the various cities and towns in the
State referred to which were looking
for recruits to fill their quotas.

cruits. The substitute brokers who
carried through this transaction. which
was subsequently widely known as the

great deal of money.

big bounties was the coming into eX

state and municipal liberality by enlist
ing, getting the money and deserting
at the first opportunity. 1t is on record
that some CT these men jumped their
bounties as many as twenty times, each
time clearing from $1,000 upward. Cen
orally the desertions were effected at
the State camps. where recruits were
herded until called to the front. Some
times. however, the bounty Jumpers
did not get away until they had been
sent to regiments in the field. Usually
the deserters left singly, as opportuni-
ties arose. but once in while many
would make simultaneous break.

OBJECT TO NUDE STATUES.
Women Make n Protest to the County
Officials I'm Detroit.

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. ga committee
from the w. c. T. L. appeared before the
county supervisors building committee yes
terday morning and formally protested
against the use of nude female figures in
the decorations of the new county building.
Mrs. Margaret Perry was the first to adj
dress the supervisors. I'm the name of the
w. c. T.. U. and of the women generally we
come here to protest against the use of nude
figures in the decorations of the county
building" she said and sat down.
Then DR.. Mary FL. Willard, president of
the society, took the floor. She set her lips
tightly together and looked as if she were
ready to annihilate any number of male adj
versaries. Il want to say, first, that per-
sonally / see nothing unchaste or immoral
in the figures began DIR. Willard. ITO me
they seem beautiful. but the ma iority of
our women are not EDUCATED in art, and il
these nude ngures are placed on the new
building, which will stand for ages, their
there not in all Coos universe otner figures
just as beautiful the female form that
can be used in decorations
There is certainly nothing in the world
more beautiful than woman" replied Aid.
Coots, calamity.
Well woman is sick of being put upon
pedestal retorted DR.. Willard.
May / ask, DR.. Willard, how much cover
ing she thinks the ngures should have"
asked Mr. Coots. Would she recommend
an entire suit?''
They should wear the ordinary drapings
that women do she answered, citing the
statue in brooklyn erected by James Gordon
Bennett to the memory OF his wife as an
example. The doctor spoke with great agi-
tation
a motion to have the chairman appoint a
committee of citizens to inspect the statues
was passed. 1t was proposed to have the
committee composed OF three men and two
women. Then Dr. Willard again took the
floor, her eyes flashing. why not name
the committee the other way-three women
and two mem" she said. For 5000 years
it has been three men and no women; now
you have come to three men and two
women It's about time things were
changed. You should at least give women
equal representation in that committee"
THAT committee should be composed of
men," said a. supervisor. IF you have two
women on it you'll never get through"
That was the last straw. Dr. Willard
sprang to her feet and her eyes shot fire
resentation, and bid you good morning.

PURSUING WEYLER'S POLICY.
How the Governor of the Philippine
Islands Is Dealing with Natives.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26.--Advices from
the Orient bring to hand the full text of
the edict recently issued by Fernando
Primo de Rivera, governor general of the
Philippine islands, brief reference to
which has been made through official
sources at Madrid. The edict is SO severe
in its treatment of all enemies of the i'm
perial government that the manifestoes of
Weyler seem mild III comparison. Taken
as a whole, it appears as an official con-
fession of the untruth of the frequent an
nouncements from the government at
Madrid that the philippine instruction has
been suppressed and the people pacified.
The edict begins with the revocation of all
passes heretofore issued and the establish
ment of Il military trocha. Property be-
longing to persons connected with the re-
bellion, or to tenants, partners or any per-
son interested i'll property belonging to the
rebels is declared forfeited to the govern
ment and will be seized to satisfy the
needs of the Spanish army. The families
of individuals who are incorporated in the
rebel party must go to join them or fix
their residence under the watchtulness of
the authorities. or the purpose of this
order the families of rebels Will consist OF
their wives, children parents, brothers,
brothers-ln-law and cousins.

There are four of the Texas antitrust

selection of the candidate who is to re-

of two votes by McMillin, one going to
Taylor and one to TurIey. Turley also lost
one vote to Taylor. There seems tonight
to be little, if any, belief that the deadlock
will soon be broken, for the supporters of
