NO SHADOW OF RIGHT
COLLECTOR TAlBERT WAS NOT SHOT IN
DlSCHARGING OFFICIAL DUTIES.
Therefore Federal Troops will not be Sent to
Phoenix. Further Rioting in The Caro-.
lnas Considered Probable.

| Washington, ID. c., November 10
Except in the unlooked-for event for 4
recurrence of race rioting in the Caro-
linas it is altogether improbable that the
Government will interfere by force OF
otherwise. The Attorney General had
another conference with the Presiden
| this morning in regard to the matter anC
the conclusion was promptly reached
that, as the demonstrations were not Ill
rected against the Collector of Customs
in the performance of his duties as such
the Constitution or laws to exercise its
Federal authority. Collector Tolbert
was shot while away from his home
and on business entirely disconnected
from that of his office and under these
circumstances, the Government, it is
said has not a shadow of a right to
interfere.
The Attorney General late last night
sent the following telegram to the As
sistantl United States Attorney at Amber
son, near Phoenix, S. c.:
Department of Justice, Washington,
November 18th, 1898:
ERNEST f. Cochran,
Assistant United States Attorney, An
derson, S. c.
You will at once take energetic steps,
mourning the necessary expense to ascer-
tain the exact situation in Greenwood
and adjacent counties, and report the
same Immediately by wire to me- with a
view of advising me whether any such
condition of insurrectionary disturbance
exists as justifies the Federal authorities
in interfering to suppress it.
(SignedD JOHN w. GRIGGS, b
Attorney General"
To the above the following response
has been received:
Anderson, $. c.. November 18th.
Attorney General, Washington.
"My information is much rioting near
Greenwood at Phoenix Wednesday.
Several negroes killed and wounded. One
white man killed and several wounded.
Thursday there was also some rioting
but condition quieter. My information
is quiet there now, though the communi-
ty very much excited. From all infor-
nation | have, | think Federal interven-
ton too late now. 1t seems the mobs
were especially anxious to get the Toll
berts. and / am informed that they
are now all safely out of their reach
Intense excitement still prevails there,
but no violence now. Will wire further
tomorrow.

-
The Americans hold that Spain saw
that Philippine sovereignty was involved
in the basis laid down by the United
States, and her attempted reservation of
August It'll is evidence thereof. The sus-
pension Of hostilities was deferred be-
cause of this fact. A protocol in precise
terms was demanded because of this
fact, and NJ Cambon cabled Madrid on
the same day of Secretary Days response
that the Federal Government had decided
to state precisely in the protocol the
basis upon which peace must be nego-
tiated. 1t was only when the United
States regarded Spain as having made
an unqualified compact to leave Philip
pine sovereignty to commission by
signing the protocol that hostilites were
suspended. 1t was not designed by the
United States to PREJUDICE SPANS rights,
but to have them determined under the
protocol by the peace conference. Added
to all the deductions from these communi-
cations the conversations in Washington
throughout the original ,,eace negotiations
left no room for Spanish representatives
to doubt that the United States expected
under the protocol to have and hold the
right to consider Spain's Philippine SOW
ereignty if they cared to exercise it.

RO0SEvELT'S IDEA
To Break Up Stagnation
in Naval Promotions.
Line Officers and Engineers to be
visions for the Enlisted Men.

Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, says
Washington dispatch, has submitted
to Secretary Long a most exhaustive
report upon the personnel of the navy.
He was charged with a special board
to consider and report upon means to
break up the present stagnation in
promotions, to settle the long standing
differences between the line and en-
gineer corps, and to devise a method
for the betterment of the condition Of
enlisted men aboard ship. All of these
things have been done in bill which
is submitted to the secretary for his
approval.
Mr.. Roosevelt's presentation of the
evils of the present situation and the
reasons which have Influenced the
board in making its recommendations
are set forth in the accompanying re-
port in a stronger light than has ever
been thrown upon this complex sub
iect, and it is presumed that it will
have influence with Congress, to which
the matter is soon to be committed.
Mr.. Roosevelt pays his compliments
to the members of the board for the
conscientious manner in which they
have generally sunk personal opinions,
and remarks with pleasure that on no
one point could it be said that the line
and staff members divided as classes.
AS to the results attained he said: 81
am able to report 10 you that the bill
they have produced would, if enacted
into law, be of literally incalculable
good to the navy and would make our
naval service the pioneer in the proper
solution of problems, some of which
are old and some so new that they
have not yet been solved by any naval
nation"
The board recommends: (a) That
the line officers and engineers be ANAL
gamated; (b) that when the number OF
officers to be promoted is so far in eX-
cess of the vacancies as to cause stag
nation in the service the requisite mum
Der of vacancies shall be caused by
wedding out the men who are least fl
to meet the heavier requirements Of
modern naval duty; (c) that the enlist
ed men aboard ship be given the same
reward of pension and retirement en-.
| joyed by their brethren who f1gh1

are made warrant officers to rank with
the gunners and carpenters.

His Compulsory Education Ukase Not
Favored.
The n. Y Tribune says that Gar
Nicholas, before leaving St. Petersburg
for Darmstadt on a visit TO his brother
in-law, the Grand Duke Of Hesse, gave
orders for the drafting Of decree,
which he expressed his intention Of
signing Immediately on his return TO
Russia, and which provides for the in
PRODUCTION of compulsory education,
free of cost, for all classes of the pop
ulation. This move on his part is en-
countering an immense amount Of op-
position, especially in Government cir
cles, where it is aruged that the prin-
cipal source and cause of nihiIism is
the overeducation Of the lower classes
of the population, for whom no occu-
patton in keeping with their intellect
ual attachments can be provided or
found, and who are therefore SO dis
satisfied with their lot that their dis
content takes the form of anarchy and
nihilism.

SEATTLE, (Wash.). December 28.-
The food situation at Dawson, accord
ing to those arriving on the Ai-Ki, is
not alarming. All say there is more
alarm over the situation outside than
is felt by the people at Dawson, who,
while they have not a surplus, have
sufficient supplies to last them until il
the spring. Whatever danger of star
walton existed has been averted by the
exodus of a large number of people
from Dawson to Fort Yukon and the
departure of great many people up
the river TO the coast.
As has been reported, the most se1i-
Gus shortage is in candles and oil. This
will reduce the output Of the mines, as
an absence of artificial light will pre-
vent their being worked to their full
capacity.
