would make it impossible to get arnmu-
milton mixed, or for marines or soldiers
to exhaust their supply 50 long as either
had a supply. But all such reasoning
was lost on the respective boards and
the consequence is that marines and
soldiers are armed with different guns
of different caliber.
At Guantanamo the marines carried
their Lee Metford rife, and the navy
ordnance bureau feels that it has been
indicated by the results achieved No
doubt it is a great weapon if the bullet
is only .235 caliber. It's initial velocity
is greater than that of the Krag-Jor-
gensen and its range greater. 1t is
said that it outclasses the Mauser.
The regulars will soon be proving
their guns. That it is a good one is well
known. When it has been tried then
the army ordnance bureau will put
forth its claims That it is the equal Of
the Mauser there IS every reason to be
lieve.
No matter which of our American
rifles may prove to be the superior, it
certainly is desirable that the rifles
used by the marines and soldiers should
take the same ammunition.

For a week every train into Wichita
from the East has been loaded with
tramps, who, taking advantage of the
great demand for harvest hands, find
it comparatively easy to beat their way
to this section of the state. They go
into the country, hire to farmers about
supper time to go to work the next day.
They steal whatever they can in the
night and are gone in the morning. No
less than 1000 of these men have come
into Sedgwick county in the last ten
days. Farmers are so busy in the har-
vest they cannot stop to bring the pill
ferers to justice.

Admiral Sampson had made all prepar-
alton for our land forces at Santiago, and

meantime his men are worn out with their
nerve-wracking vigils, his ships are be-
coming less effective, ghe has battered
down again defenses which the Spaniards
replaced and may further replace and
ample. time has been given them to
strengthen themselves against attack.
Meanwhile. our troops which were to be
sent within two or three days after we
knew that Cervera was at Santiago, and
which we have had nearly two months
to get ready, were delayed time and again
in their departure, and during the latter
half of last week were cooped up on the
hot and motionless transports, forbidden
to sail because somebody has reported
TO have seen the smoke of a strange craft
somewhere in the Atlantic. If Sampson
had his work to do over, he would doubt
less make it his first object to cut every
cable by which the War Board could
reach him. and then go ahead and take

Los Angeles Herald: During the civil
war General Miles displayed personal
courage in subordinate commands. but
he had no opportunity TO show his metal
under grave responsibilities. Personal
bravery is common. but courage in Shout
dering responsibilities is comparatively
rare. To be courageous in the latter case
it is necessary that one should be conf
cessfully. To plan a campaign or cattle
is cutie different from executing the or
ders of another. The movement of the
troops in the present war has been de-
layed through somebody's incompetency.
The incomDetency may have been with

ADMINISTRATION VIEWS.

Chicago Inter-Ocean administration:
The opposition of the Sugar trust is
purely selfish. The interests of the
United States cut no figure in their argu-
ment. If the islands are annexed the
members of the Sugar trust fear that they
will not have the advantage of cheap
labor in Hawaii and will not have
monopoly in handling the Hawaiian sugar
product. The German owners of sugar
plantations in the Hawaiian islands have
opposed annexation from the first on the
theory that should the islands be adj
nlitted to the American Union, either as
a state or territory, contract labor would
certainly be forbidden, and the sup
ply of cheap labor from China and
Japan cut off. The members of the Sugar
trust have taken Dracticall- the same
position. They were against the recipro-
city treaty, and they are against annexa-
ton, simply because they believe that it
will injure their own business

Denver Post: There can be no doubt
that some one is responsible for two mis-
takes committed For not sending troops
at once to Dewey, when he made an ur-
gent call for them, and for concentrating
an army on the barren sands under the
tropical sun of Tampa. without water
shelter and provisions in sufficient guam
titles, and on a railroad that is without
terminal facilities, or, in fact, facilities of
any kind. These two mistakes are charge
able to some one in authority, and they
are about the only ones of any conse-
quence committed so far Fortunately for
Dewey, he managed with the ever-ready
aid of the insurgents to get along without
the much-needed troops, otherwise the
mistake might have been productive of
the most serious consequences. The To-
cation of camp for the assembling of
troops in large numbers at Tampa, a.
place without any of those facilities
that are Indispensable for the purpose,
such as water and transportation. was a
mistake for which, unfortunately. our
troops had to suffer for weeks. Whoever
is responsible for it is deserving of the
severest censure. But for the robustness
of the troops quartered there, epidemic
diseases might have been the consequence
Of this mistake AS it is. the soldiers suf-
fered severely under the adverse condi-
tons surrounding them, but they braved
it out with a fortitude worthy of all COM
mendatiOn.

FoULEST KIND OF FIGHTING.
JOE BUTLER FINISHES "DOC''
PAYNE IN SHORT ORDER.

The Negro PuGilist Dealt Foul Blows

Police, Succeeded in Evading the
Angry Crowd of Spectators-PaYnc
Taken to the HOsDitaI-Phy sicians
Give No Hope for His Recovery.
Philadelphia, Sept. 26.-It required less
than two rounds tonight at the Arena
for Joe Butler, local colored pugilst. to
put Doc Payne, McCoy's sparring part
ner, out of the business, but in that time
Butler gave an exhibition of the foulest
aid of the police that he got away from
the crowd of over 1000 persons, who were
waiting in front of the building.
The men were to fight six rounds In
the middle of the first Butler deliberately
forced Payne against the ropes, and in a
clinch threw him and began to punch him
Referee Schllchter separated the men
and declared the round ended. but the
colored fighter went at his opponent again
and landed three or four hard punches.
Payne was groggy when the bell sounded.
In the second both fought fiercely for a
minute, when the local man again began
his rushing tactics and landed a heavy
right swing on Paynes jaw The latter
fell like log and had TO be carried from
the ring He did not regain consciousness
for over twenty minutes.
Payne was later sent TO a hospital. He
was delirious and after an examination
by three doctors they were unable TO de-
termine his injury. It was feared that
concussion of the brain had resulted, and
the physicians would hold out no hope for
his recovery.
Jack" Mcdonald, Buffers second and
kid Howard of Cincinnati, Payne's sec
ond were placed under arrest. Butler, by
that time, could not be found. No effort
was made to find Referee Schlichter or
Manager Myers, as it is understood that
they will appear in the morning.
