JEALOUSY AND 4 PISTOL.
Fatal Result Of Love Affair-0ne Man
Dead, Another Fatally Wounded.

Lancaster, Pa, March 9.-Roy Gehrig,
of Milton, Pa, shot and perhaps fatally
wounded Will B. Davis, of St. Clair, Pa,
at Millersville today, and then killed
himself. The boys were pupils at Pierce's
business college In Philadelphia and
went to Millersville on Saturday to call
upon two lady students at the normal
school there. A note written by Gehrig
explained the tragedy as follows:
sWe are dead In love with Alice Cum
mings and Annie Holmes, and not being
able to see them, resolved to take our
lives"
Davis denies there was any compact to
commit suicide. From what can be
learned it seems that Gehrig was des-
perately in love with Miss Cummings
and he and Davis had dispute over her.

vessels being constructed at Philadelphia
and San Francisco. Aside from this
the navy department is without definite
knowledge of any war ships for sale of

Maior-General Miles said last night:
"No new contracts have yet been
made by the department in view of the
new appropriation, hut many large ones
are under consideration for rapid firing,
large calliber sea guns, ammunition,
etc. All the preparations will, in all
probability, be no greater than the de-
partment would have made long ago II
we had adequate appropriations. The

ly spend the entire $50,OO0,0O in put
ting the country on merely substan-
tial peace footing"

POLICY OF THE PRESIDENT.
Absolute Justification of the Course
Pursued by the Chief
Executive.

The president is indicated. From
amid "a storm OF calumny and hatred
scarcely paralleled in American history
be rises by inherent merit into the Sc
rene realm Of established and eternal
right. Never was a policy more vio-
lently and viciously assailed than his.
Never was one more absolutely justi-
fed, in general and in detail, by the
ncontrovertible logic of events. The
voice of denunciaaion, yesterday so
stridulous, to-day is dumb. Opponents
have become supporters. And the ma
iority OF congress-, and the great mass
Of the American people, who have all
along trusted the president and be-
lieved in his policy, rejoice in the
amplest possible confirmation of their
confidence.
For what is OF supremest Importance
TO the nation to-day is this, that, no mat
ter which way the scale may incline
toward peace, as is still hoped, or TO
ward war, as some men fear-the atti-
tude Of the United States is justified in
the minds OF its own people and in
the eyes OF the impartial world a
month ago that could not have been
said. IL was true then, as now. that
this country was in the right. But the
fact had not been made evident 10 the
world, nor even proved TO the full salts
faction of all our own people. There
was ignorance of the real state OF af-
fairs in Cuba. There was doubt as TO
the right Of this country to intervene.
There was still lingering notion that
autonomy might prove 10 be the
pauacea for all Antillean ills. Above
all, there was the feeling that diplomacy
had not yet done it's best, that not all
peaceful means Of settlement had been
employed, and that therefore anything
looking TO the last dread alternative of
war would be premature and unjusfi-
fable. Any overt act, or ultimatum, or
decree OF intervention, by this govern
ment would have placed the United
States on the defensive in the court
OF the nations, and would have assured
10 Spain certain amount OF sympathy.
But by the tact and patience Of Presi-
dent Mckinley all that has been
changed. The cup Of Spanish obsti-
macy against the right Is filed. The
measure Of American forbearance and
Cancellation is complete. If war comes
now, ii will be through the perversity
81 Spain, and Spain vii. be, from the
outset, put on the moral defensive be-
fore the world. The material prepare
ton Of this country is vastly more com
plete than Il was. The moral advan-
tage OF this country over Spain is sim
ply overwhelming.
That is the incstimable debt the ma
ton owes to-day TO William Mckinley.
Not only he Is indicated. he has vim
tlicated the nation. He has made the
whole world see that Spain is in the
wrong and that we are in the right,
and are acting well within both moral
and legal right in making the call that
has been made upon Spain for settle
ment in Cuba Whatever may come,
whether peace or war, the honor OF this
nation is secure. 1T will be peace with
honor or righteous war crowned with
victory and honor. The choice rests
with Spain. The result TO this nation
Is assured.-N. Y. Tribune.

UNMAsKING CUSTOM FRAUDS.
dervaiuing Imports - An I'm
lust Discrimination.

Indicative OF the earnestness Of the
treasury department in its determine
tion 20 put an end to the unjust discrim-
nation against honest importers and
manufacturers, fostered by the under
valuation Of imported merchandise, Is
the action Of Assistant Secretary How
ell in officially defining and emphasiz-
ing the powers vested in local United
States appraising officers. In a cir
cular letter addressed 10 such govern
ment officer, the assistant secretary OF
the treasury calls attention TO the pro-
visions Of section 30 OF the act OF July
"a, 1897, which among other things
amends section IL OF the customs adj
ministrative act OF June 10, 1890
This law as now modified, the assist
ant secretary explains, makes il lawful
for United States appraising officers in
determining the dutiable value of mer-
chandise subject 10 an ad valorem duty,
or TO n duty based in whole or in part on
value, ito take into consideration the
Wholesale price at which such or sim
liar merchandise is sold or offered for
sale in this country, due allowance be
ing made for estimated duties thereon,
the cost Of transportation, insurance
and other necessary expenses from the
place OF shipment 10 the United States,
and reasonable commission, ii any
has been paid, not exceeding six per
cent"
To this recital OF the provisions Of the
law MIR. Howell adds the injunction
that it is expected that apprasing Off
GERS will avail themselves of the au-
thority given them by this section
whenever il may be necessary TO arrive
at a proper market value, and especial
~ in cases where evidence is required
in regard 10 market value which is not
furnished, and which cannot be OBJ
tanned by the ordinary means.
This proclamation from the treasury
department is timely, and will have the
effect Of warning offending importers
aswell as of fortfying the local apprais-
er al the port of New York in his work
OF extracting from unwilling and
evasive witnesses the actual facts about
suspicious importations.
This work OF obtaining proof OF in
territorial undervaluations Of merchan-
disc manufactured abroad and brought
into the markets OF this country is, by
the way, going steadily forward.
