battle was the event today. The battle was
between the regiments composing the First

doing unusually hard work and Is rapidly

CALLED ON M'KINLEY
Gen. Lew Wallace Too Old to Take the
Field

WASHINGTON. June GA bright, clear
day tended to bring out large contingent
from the two houses Of Congress at the
White House today. Among the callers
was Senator White of California.
The indications now are that General Lew
Wallace of Charlottesville, Ind, the noted
author, soldier and diplomat, will not win
MajorGeneralship. General Wallace Is II
years Of age, and the President, while
personal friend and warm admirer of Gen.
eral Wallace, feels that he would be scarcely
warranted In putting General Wallace in
the field at his age.
First Assistant Postmaster-General
Heath and Representative Lands of Indi-
ana called on the President to make a final
request for the appointment, but while the
President stated that he had the name un-
der consideration, he called attention to
General Wallaces age and conveyed the
impression that there was little likelihood
of his appointment.
Representatives Curtis and Broderick of
Kansas urged on the President the appoint
ment of Lieutenant Cohler of the cavalry
as Inspector-General with the rank of
Major. The President referred the matter
TO the War Department, and the delegation
is confident that If a vacancy can be found
the appointment will be made.
Up to II o'clock the President had no i'm
portant war news.

THE NORCROsS CASE
Is Likely to Be Settled Out Of
Court

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-Rumors
were rife on the street today to the effect
that the famous Hale and Noroross case
was about to be compromised. Much color
is given to the compromise theory by pro-
ceedings occurring before the State Su-
preme Court sitting in banc this morning.
Attorney Garrett McEnerney, represent
ing M. w. Fox and the other stockholders
who filed the original suit against AL
vinza Hayward and the w. s. Hobart es-
tate, made a motion that the Supreme
Court issue an order amending the asst
decree rendered in the case by the Superior
Court to the effect that the Judgment
awarded the stockholders for SAT-, 6S3, with
interest, be stricken out, the only stipuis-
ton being that the defendants pay the
entire costs, amounting to 81, 300.
Attorney McEnerney argued that the
Judgment for $210,000 placed all the cost on
the defendants. The defense was willing
to admit this, but mildly objected to tho
payment of So, 500 costs on the second judg-
ment for $417,6s3, even though the stock
holders were willing to waive any claims,
presumptive or real.
The matter was argued at some length
and was taken under advisement.

A NEW FUSE
Warranted to End War by Killing
Everybody


NEW YORK, June 6.-Since the discovery
of high explosives the military and scien-
tific experts of two continents have been
cudgeling their brains to perfect a shell to
throw them, says the New York Press. An
officer in the United States army has
practically completed device which per-
haps will perform this hitherto impossible
task.
Pierce is the officers name, and as there.
are only two of this name in the regular
army, one of whom Is post chaplain In
Fort Apache, Ariz., 1t is reason the other
Pierce is the man. 1t is P. E. Pierce, in
structor at West Point and second lieu
tenant of the Second Infantry. Every fact
connected with the invention is hedged
about with secrecy. 1t is not denied that
the device is not far from actual compile
ton. This fact alone is sufficient to set
the whole scientific world agog, especially
in these times of war. 1t is possible that
it is so far advanced that it may be tried
on the Spaniards 1t is known that this is
hoped to be done, but so closely is the whole
matter guarded that 1t is not even known
where the experiments are being conducted
or how far they have progressed
The invention is a decorating fuse for a
shell to fire high explosives. Such a fuse,
it is believed. will advance ten years the
day which it is predicted some time will
come when war no more will be waged.
because of its very destructiveness. The
minute an American rifle hurls a shell of
this kind successfully at an enemy, all
other shells will be as antiquated as rifles
without magazines. The day that wit
nesses the perfection of such shell will
relegate to a position of secondary i'm
portance billions of dollars worth of am
munition stored in the arsenals of Europe.
So say ordnance experts.

VOLUNTEER ENGINEERS
A Whole Regiment Of Thoroughly
Skillful Workmen

DENVER, June 6.-The Republicans
Washington special says:
The preliminary work incident to the or
ganization of Col. Willard Young's reg-
ment of volunteer engineers is now we'll ad-
vanced and the Colonel expects that every
thing will be ready within the next week
or two to open headquarters for enlistment
in the several designated cities. According
to present arrangements one company will
be raised in Denver, one in ST. Paul, one in
Omaha. two in Chicago. one in Salt Lake,
one in San Francisco. one in Portland, Or,
two in Cincinnati and one in Columbus,
Ohio. II is not intended however, to limit
enlistments to these cities. Each company
WILL it is said, consist of 70 privates, cor
porals, sergeants and commissioned Off
GERS, captain and two lieutenants. The
privates will be divided into two classes.
There will be As first-class prvates, made
up of mechanics, including carpenters, min
ers draughtsmen, electricians and line
men, bridge builders, photographers, steam
filters. etc. They will receive about $26 per
month There will also be 2S second-cl class
privates, who must be good workmen, as
railroad laborers, sewer men, miners etc.
Men of this class will get about 5000 a
month. Two good cooks and a bugler or
two will also be enlisted.
Although the regiment will be organized
for a special purpose, Colonel Young wishes
1t understood that they enlist as soldiers
for two years, unless sooner discharged,
and will be expected to perform service as
such whenever required. 70 them, how
ever, will be particularly assigned the work
of building bridges earthworks, cutting
roads, building telegraph lines, etc. Colonel
Young expects to have no difficulty in
promptly getting all the men he can use.
The several companies. when organized,
will rendezvous at Fort Sheridan res
ervation near Chicago, where they will be
supplied with uniforms and equipments
