ANONYMOUS LETTER
 EPIDEMIC REVIVED
Prominent Citizens of San Anselmo
 the Recipients of Abusive Missives

SAN RAFAEL, Dec. 26-The anonymous letter epidemic, which led to the collision between ex-Sheriff James Tunsted and E. J. Mulverill of San AnselmO, has again broken out in virulent form, and there are several prominent citizens who are after the authors scalp. Many schemes have been laid to detect the man who is responsible for these cowardly attacks on the reputation of leading citizens, but so far none have been productive of any clew leading to his identity. Should he be caught he will be given short shrift. All the letters bear date of December 23, and were postmarked at z a. m., showing that they must have been dropped in the letter box on the night preceding. The envelopes are plain as well as the paper, and there is nothing to show from the missives themselves where they originated.
 One of these communications was sent to a leading attorney of the community In 1t a malicious canard regarding his connection with the late war, started by political enemies is revived. He Is ac- cused of sympathiZing with ex-Sheriff TunSted, and Is told that MulVerill him. self Is a brave soldier, who has four bullet wounds in one arm. A newspaper man who gave the clash between Nulverill and .Tunsted publicity is accused of sordid motives and informed that the reason the large enough sum of money was not forthcoming. In letters to others Tun- sted is referred to as "coward" and brute
 So virulent are these anonymous com municattons and so many ugly stories are revived that considerable excitement and anger have been aroused.

SPOKANE, Wash, Dec. 26.-The Gov ernment has run against snag'' in al- lotting lands in severalty on the Col vile Indian Reservation, peopled by 900 Indians. Indian Agent Anderson and AL lotting Agent Harry Humphrey have been trying for some time to allot the lands, but have met resistance, the Indians being opposed to surveys and allot- ments unless the Government pays them for the land, as the Neg Perces and Couer d'Alenes were paid for theirs
 There are about 1.50O 600 acres on the res ervation. The contention of the Govern ment is that the Indians have no title to it. The Government proposed to allot eighty acres to each Indian In severalty and give them nothing more. The 1n- dians, led by Chief Aura Paghuin and Chief Bernard. demand that they be paid about s1,500,000 claiming this under the report of a commission which examined into the matter some time after the res erYation was set apart by President Grants proclamation in July, 1872.

AN APPEAL TO THE POPE
Heads of Colleges Called to Paris for Punishment, While Members of the Order in This Country
 Are Not Overlooked.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-A grave crisis has arisen here in the affairs of the teaching order known as the Christian Brothers, members of which have charge of many of the parochial schools of the Catholic churches throughout this country.
 The difficulty arose over funda- mental rule of the order set down by it's founder, John Baptist de la Sale, that brothers should confine themselves to teaching elementary subjects 10 chil- dren of the poor. They were forbidden to include classics in the curriculum for fear that they should be so doing wander away from the object he had in establishing the order.
 The heads of colleges and the order here did not think that this French idea was for the best interests of the Brothers in the United States, and they drew up an appeal to the Pope. This document will be presented for them by Bishop Thomas s. Byrne of Nash vile, Tenn, who sailed last week to pay an official visit to the Vatican.
 The movement of the Brothers in the United States greatly incensed the gen eral of the order and his counsellorS in ! dtIS, especially IIl6 appeal over lIlelT heads to Rome. Four of the Brother visitors and several heads of colleges here were summoned to Paris, where a consultation was held. It is now learned that they have been severely discip- lined. The director of a house in Balti- more was ordered to a house in the interior of France. Brother Felix, head of the college in St. Louis, Mo, was sent to an obscure school at Birming- ham. England. Brother Paulian of St. Louis was kept in retreat in Paris. Others of the American branch of the order are expecting similar punishment.
 AS may be supposed the bishops of the United States do not intend to tamely submit to the interference of Paris officials with the educational problems of this country. They seri- ously resent the contention that they have no Jurisdiction to direct and con trol the teaching orders in the schools here. Their course at Rome will con- sequently be watched with special in terest for the very important bearing 1t will have on the future of many of the successful Catholic colleges in large cities
 If the decision is against the. Ameri- can Brothers, and the old rule of the order is enforced, it is expected that many of them will leave it's ranks and enter seminaries to study for the priest hood.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-Major General Wesley Merritt, retiring Military Gov ernor of the Philippines, accompanied by his bride. formerly Miss Laura Will Hams, and his chief aid, Major Strother, has arrived in this city from New York. General and Mrs. Merritt will remain at the residence of Norman Williams. Mrs. Merritt's father, until after the holidays, when they will return to New York City, where the general will again resume his position as commander of the Department of the East. which he left to go to Manila. In regard to the inhabitants of the Philippine Islands, General Merritt said:
 ''The best we can do is to give them good military government, give them what civilians are necessary to admin ister the civil functions of government and when they are ready to form gov ernment of their own give them our blessing and let them do so."
 When asked what he thought of the proposed increase of the standing army to 100000 men the general declared he had always believed such increase was necessary
 We need a standing army of at least 75,000 men here in the United States, he declared. Now that we have acquired these new territories we shall need a few more. But, in my belief, 25, ,00r men are ample and sufficient for all possible emergencies in Cuba. Porto Rico and the Philippines together. The rest are needed in the United States for garrison duty. If a larger force is wanted in the Philippines it can easily be had from among the natives ], General Merritt continued: By off, cering the native soldiers with Ameri- cans a most effective army for duty ir the islands can be quickly formed. Tn time, perhaps, 1t would come to resem- ble the British army in India. where the greater part of the men are natives The Filipinos are anxious to enlist in such service, and they could be made into effective soldiers
 General Merritt was careful not to vouchsafe any opinion as to what Con- gress might do or as to what he had learned of it's action during his short stay in Washington. He declared. how ever, that he would assume his former post as commanding, general of the De- partment of the East.

all of the claims that are being made by his political touts. These men claim that Burns has already sufficient votes pledged to him to insure his election. They say that he is sufficiently power full politically to get all of the Repub- hcan votes he wants or needs when the time comes for the taking of the vote for United States Senator. In making this assertion they say that Burns is prepared to spend S175,000 to influence voters in his behalf. A part of this money, they say, has already been put out" where it will do the most good, and that the balance will be forthcom- ing when it is needed.
 There are scores of men, many of them legislators, to whom Burns has, through his lieutenants, promised po- litical jobs under the State in return for their support of his candidacy. All of these men have been made to be- lieve that Burns is in a position to "de- liver the goods" or, in other words, that he has the power to dictate ap pointments to the Governor -elect. To carry out the illusion Burns has estab lished his headquarters in the rooms of the Republican State Central Commit tee at the Palace Hotel, and because of this fact members of the Legislature from the country are led to believe that his candidacy has the moral and pos sibly the active support of the State organization. He uses the committee rooms as a dragnet and every mem Der of the Legislature who ventures to enter is at once bounced upon by his army of touts, whose business it is to steer" the unsuspecting one into the presence of The Man from Mexico"
