Concerning the State Guard.

Concerning the State Guard.
There has been some discussion of
the reorganization of the state guard
considering the fact that the companies
formerly constituting the infantry
regiment have gone to the front, and
the immediate reorganization of the
guard is waged from some parts
of the state. 1t is argued in
certain quarters that there is
no armed force in the state now to
put down riots or disturbances and that
some steps should be taken al once to
see that this deficiency is remedied. In
view of the statements that have been
made concerning this matter Adjutant
General Miller said this morning:
ut is a mistake to suppose that the
state has no armed force to put down
any trouble that might arise. There is
a battery of light artillery at Lisbon,
fully armed and equipped and one of
the best organizations in the state.
This battery is armed with a gatling
gun and is equal to a battalion of in
fantry. The members of the battery
known how to handle their weapons
and I have no doubt of their ability to
suppress any trouble that might arise.
Then there is a first class troop of
cavalry at Dunseith, that is ready and
would do good work. OF course, if the
present guard was out of existence,
there might be a call for the 'reorganiza.
ton of the guard at once. But the
present companies have extended leave
of absence, and should they return to
the state in the near future they would
again constitute the state guard. Should
circumstances arise, whereby it was
evident that the present companies had
left the state for an extended period,
the reorganization Of the guard will be
attended to. But this cannot be done
until we get equipments for the com
panies that want to enter the guard.
There are at present only a few Of the
old fifty calibre rifles and these could

Slice of the Philippines.
BERLIN, July 5.-On the best author
ity the correspondent here of the AS
ISOLATED Press is informed that Ger.
many, France and Russia have reached
an understanding relative to the Phil.
ippine islands. It is said these three
powers do not intend to actively inter-
fere until hostilities cease, after which
they will combine to prevent the
United States or Great Britain gaining
possession of the whole of the Philip.
pine islands. When the war is over
an international congress will be pro-
posed, similar to the Berlin congress- Of
1878. to settle all questions connected
with the war. All the great powers
will be invited to join, including the
United States and Spain. 1t appears
certain that Germany will then de.
mand q slice Of the Philippine islands

The correspondent Of the Associated
Press has received confederation Of the
above facts from authentic sources.

North Dakota Soldier Boys Leave
San Francisco for Manila Ear
ly Tuesday Evening.
Expect to Reach Honolulu a few Hours
After the First Section of the
Transports.
Dissatisfaction Expressed With the
Transport Valencia, Which is
Rather Small.
North Dakota Boys Are OF.

The two batallionsu of North Dakota
troops are or the water en- route for the
Philippines and will not be heard from
again until they reach Honolulu. They
left alone on the Valencia, at 4::3O o'clock
Tuesday afternoon, preceded a day by
the Minnesota troops and followed a day
by the Newport with General Merritt.
A news telegram says:
Promptly at 4:30 Tuesday afternoon
the Valencia, carrying the North Dakota
boys, left the Lombard street wharf
and pulled out into the stream, making
directly for the open sea, and was soon
lost to sight. 1t was followed by sew
eral tugs for some distance.
1t will cover the distance to Honolulu
alone, where the other transports will
be overtaken. 1t was scheduled to leave
at 2:3O. Much dissatisfaction is ex-
pressed as to the accommodations on
board. owing to the crowded space and
lack of ventilation. It is claimed by
seamen she will not make over nine
knots per hour.
The Chicago Chronicle special says:
The Valencia as a troopship has not
proved very much of a success, mas
much as she is not large enough to
carry the number of men assigned to her.
This forenoon the steamer lay along
side Of the Lombard street dock. She
sat low in the water and considerably
down by the head. Much grumbling
was heard among her crew, although
the North Dakota men accepted the
situation cheerfully and replied when
asked how they liked their floating
quarters: swell, she's very crowded,
but she might be worse. Between
decks we were comfortable last night,
but I do not know how We'll stand it in
the tropics"
1t had been discovered there is no
systematic arrangement for ventilating
the steamer except by leaving the for
ward and main hatchways off. During
heavy weather these matches will have
to be closed, and the cubic air law will
certainly be violated unless some means
Of forcing air to the quarters can be
found. There are no patent blowers on
the vessel and no means Of using them
if they had been provided.
"We will rot go to sea unless. the yes
sci is properly slowed" said n of the
ships crew this morning. II think the
ship has at least 200 troops more on
board than the steamer is fitted to
accommodated"

a Fargo dispatch says: Fargo social,
circles are just now enjoying a bit Of
salacious gossip. Mrs. Abel came here
some months ago and registered from
Sumpter, S. G. Since her arrival here
she and Eugene deLendrecie have been
together quite frequently, and it was re-
ported that they were to be married as
soon as Mrs. Abel secured her divorce.
This was done last week, but deLendre-
Gle is said to have refused to marry the
woman, and she has attempted suicide
by drinking wood alcohol. Physicians
pulled her through all right, and now
Mrs. Abel has instituted breach.of-
promise proceedings and a damage suit
for $1,000 against her former lover.
deLendrecie was arrested last night and
placed under bonds. Mrs. Abel alleges
that he promised to marry her both be-
fore and after she secured her divorce.
She also alleges that he wrote her let
tiers containing promises, which he took
away from her later. It is alleged that
they were criminally intimate, and her
seduction was accomplished through
promise of marriage. Plaintiff is a
pretty little woman, and her former
husband is a director in the New Eng

LEE LEAVES HAVANA.
General Bianoo Refused to Say Farewell to
the Courageous American.

Saturday afternoon Consul General
Lee. accompanied by his staff, boarded
the Dispatch boat Fern, and Consuls
Springer and Barker went on board
later. The Machina wharf, where they
embarked, was crowded with curious
persons but no discourtesy was shown
the officials. At b:3 the American ves-
sells began leaving.
The steamer Evelyn followed with
about passengers. and after her came
the Olivette with N7 passengers.
among whom were Miss Clara Barton
and the other representatives of the
Red Cross Society who have been en-
gagged In relief work in the island.
The Olivette was followed by the
Bache with 10 passengers, and last OF
all came the Fern, having on board
Consul General Lee. Consul Springer
and Barker. Consular Clerks Fosca,
Dolz and Drain.
As the Fern rounded to, headed for
the open sea, she passed near the
Maine wreck The group had been
laughing and talking expressing their
one accord, each man doffed his hat In
salute to the brave dead, while silence
fell on all several minutes.

the mildest expressions used. This

as ludicrous. Vice Consul Springer,
who had been on the island 80 years,
waved his hand to n particularly
abusive group. saying In tones loud
enough for all to hear, Walt, wait. my
friends, we shall all be back soon"
There was one pretty incident. On
the Cabanas shore. a British steamer
was unloading at her wharf. As the
Fern passed the Union Jack was
dipped, while the English crew gave n
hearty cheer. 1t is needless to say that
the compliment was returned with all
possible gusto.
Saturday morning Consul General
Lee, accompanied by British Consul
Gollan. called on General Blanco to bid
him good-by. The governor general
was very busy and could not receive
General Lee.
Gen. Lee arrived at Tampa, Fla.
Sunday and left Immediately for

Cubans Want No Armistice.

Mr.. Quesada, the diplomatic repres-
entative of the Cuban insurgents in
Washington, was seen this afternoon
by a reporter in regard to the con-
stantly reiterated report that the
Queen Regent might issue an armistice
proclamation.
1T is useless for u.s." said Mr.. Que
sada, ito reiterate again for the thous-
andth time that we will not accept an
armistice and give up the advantages
we naturally possess In the rainy
season. We understand perfectly that
Spain seeks only delay. We will have
nothing but an independence. AS a
matter of fact an arInistice Is a suspen-
sion Of hostilities to be arranged by the
opposing Generals. General Blanco
and General Gomez would have to
agree to an armistice. Does anyone
think that General Gomez would sus-
pend hostilities just as we are about to
win the great boon for which our peo-
pie have fought and struggled so
long?"

EUROPE WOULD PROTEST.
Neither Spain Nor the United states viii
Engage in Privateering.

Spain and the United States are the
only two great powers which do not
prohibit privateering. A treaty to
which every European nation except
Spain Is signatory provides that let
ters OF marque shall not be issued in
war, authorizing private armed YES
sells to attack the merchant ships Of an
enemy.
The reasons advanced for this at
titude were considered good and suf-
fcient by the civilized powers which
made the treaty. 1t was urged that
the margin between a privateer and a
pirate was too easily abolished. If
business should be dull in the priv
ateer's legitimate line the temptation
to strike the merchant ships of neu-
trail nation might be too strong TO be
resisted.
While there Is no treaty stipulation
to prevent either Spain or the United
States from sending out privateers, 1t Is
not believed at Washington that either
nation would be permitted by the great
powers to resort to this method Of war
fare.
The United States. of course. would
not countenance privateering. and 1t is
said In official circles that IL Spain at
tempted II the warships OF Europe
would take concerted action to make
her amenable in fact to the treaty
which she refused in terms. The priva-
teers. after due notice given, would be
destroyed as pirates by the warships Of
Europe.
1t has been suggested in congression-
al circles that a portion OF the Ameri-
can merchantmen might be fioated un-
der the flag of Great Britain. This
might be done in the case of vessels
engaged in deep sea trading. The
drawback is that ship owners could not
bring their vessels back into American
registry after peace was declared with
out an act OF congress. In the case Of
vessels engaged in the coastwise trade
the plan Is absolutely impracticab.e.
The law prohibits ships of a foreign
nation from engaging in coastwise
trade. 1t is the only vestige of protec-
tion left for the American merchant
marine, and the New Englanders cling
to IL tenaciously. II II were proposed
to suspend the law for this purpose the
suspension would let in horde of for
eign' ships which would Immediately
drive our schooners from the trade.

pate damage to the ice and coal trade

usual Only vessels sailing to gulf

The advantage of drawing boards oI

The advantage of drawing boards of
health to the service of the public

by results in Boston and New York,
where competent medical inspection
