DEwEY's PROMOTION.
A Substantial Recognition Of His
markable Victory.

A Substantial Recognition Of His Re-
markable Victory.
Washington, May II. - fitting
tribute was paid by the senate to Com
modore Dewey for the magnificent VIC
tory he achieved in the battle of Manila
bay. The message from the president
was received recommending that vote
of thanks be extended by congress to
Commodore Dewey and the gallant
officers and men of his command.
Without, word of debate and without
a dissenting voice, the senate agreed to
the resolution carrying into effect the
recommendation of the president.
The senate went farther than that.
A bill was passed increasing the num-
Der of rear-admirals to seven, in order
that the president might nominate
Dewey to the highest position in the
navy within his gift, and that, too, was
passed without dissent.
In addition, a joint resolution was
unanimously agreed to, directing the
secretary of the navy to present to
Commodore Dewey sword of honor,
and have struck, in commemoration of
the battle of Manila, a bronze medal
for each of the officers and men who
participated in the gallant fight. The
resolution appropriates $4,000 to ena-
BILE the secretary to carry these provis-
ions into effect.

NO SURRENDER.
The spaniards at Manila Are beiil
Arrogant.

The spaniards at Manila Are still
London, May 1l.-A dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Hong Kong says
communication from Manila asserts
that the Spaniards are still arrogant
and not likely to surrender until the
city is blown to pieces. A telegraph
operator has gone with the McCuilocn
to see what can be done with the cable.
The Hong Kong correspondent OF the
Chronicle says the British in Manila
have forwarded petition to Vice-Ad-
miral Seymour, commander-in-chief OF
the Chinese station, for further naval
assistance, and it is anticipated that
additional ships will be sent there.
The British consul is working in har-
mony with the American commander,
but it is felt that the British interests
require supervision by force sufflcl-
ent to keep the Spaniards and natives
in check.
There is no desire to advocate Brit
ish acquisition of the Philippines, thus
completing the chain of British possess
sions from the Straits settlements by
Borneo to this colony. It is felt that
the occupation of the Philippines by
any other great European power would
be most dangerous to their interests.
Business at Manila is at a complete
standstill, but the Spaniards are not
likely to surrender until the city is
blown to pieces. The British inhabit-
ants, however. are confident that the
trouble will soon be over.

MORE TROOPS WANTED.

A Second Call for Volunteers Will Be
Made Soon.
Olympia, WASH, May 11.-Governor
Rogers today received the following
telegram from Representative Lewis.
dated Washington:
Inform any of the Guard omitted
from present selected quota that the
secretary of war assures me new quota
will be sought from Washington in
next call, which will be in 10 days."
The governor said should this second
call be made it must be largely filled
from companies yet to be organized.
Parties desiring can form companies
upon volunteer basis, and if the pres
ident makes call for more troops they
will be selected from the companies SO
organized.
The governor is in receipt of large
number of requests from patriotic citi-
zens requesting appointments in the
service, and from others who desire to
become commissioned officers with
power to form companies to be after
ward mustered into the national
service.

will come eventually the increasing cost
of timber and the decreasing cost OF
steel construction makes very certain.

SPAIN'S BREAD RIOTS.
Many Victims Killed in Their Efforts

Many Victims Killed in Their Efforts
to Secure Food.
London, May 1.-THE Madrid CORE
spondent of the Telegraph says: Bread
riots continue throughout Spain. The
painful monotony of the story was
broken this morning by news Of victims
killed and wounded in their wild at
tempts to obtain food. In Ciudad Real
and almost every town in the province
of that name there were serious disor-
ders, and the outbreaks were only
quelled by the military. Now it ap-
pears that the prisons are too small and
too few to contain the people arrested.
Yesterday at Linares $4,000 work
men became disorderly, and a regular
battle ensred with the municipal
guards. The rioters possessed them
selves of a quantity of firearms, and
the streets were barricaded. and they
remained so till the moment of tele
graphing. Twelve dead bodies and
many wounded still lie in the streets,
and nobody dares to remove any of
them on account Of the firing. which
continues steadily.

Clutches.

A Kansas City dealer in clutches
said: "Crutches are staple articles
with us, and we sell on an average ten
pairs per week, or 40 pairs month.
This, Of course, would make 40 pairs
in the course of year. This, mind
you. does not include the crutches we
sell at wholesale. It is conservative
statement to say that altogether we sell
900 pairs of crutches annually, and
our firm is only one of several in the
CITY that handle them. The total sales
of crutches annually in Kansas City
would be hard to estimate, but would
say that 5000 pairs would not be far
from the exact number. kansas City
