PHILIPPINE CASUALTIES.
Be an Omcial List of Our Dead
and Wounded.

Seattle, Wash, July 29.-The Times
prints what purports to be full list of
fatalities in the American army in the
Philippines up to June2. The list was
furnished by Fred f. Eitell, a repre-
sentative of the Manila Freedom,
who claims to have obtained it from
the records in the surgeon gener-
ais office at Manila. The total num-
Der of fatalities is 7S6; % officers, 699
privates and IA civilians attached
to the army. A remarkable feature
of the record is found in the statement
that the number of officers killed in
battle is out of all proportion to the
number of privates killed. On the
other hand, fewer officers died from
disease proportionate1y than privates.
Out of the % officers dead, 16 were
killed in action, were drowned and
5 died of disease, as follows:
Typhoid, L; meningitis. ?; rheuma-
tism of the heart, l; paralysis, 1. OF
the 699 privates, 294 died of wounds re-
ceived in action, 8 were killed acct
dentally, % were drowned, COM
rnitted suicide, 1O6 died of typhoid
fever, SO of smallpox, II of dysentery,
% of pneumonia. 10 of malarial fever
and IA of meningitis. The remaining
II died of various diseases.

PAPER CURRENCY SCARCE.
The Federal Treasury, However, Is Unable
to Relieve the Present Stringency-
Cause Assigned for the Scarcity.

Washington, July 29.-Complaints
are being received at the treasury de-
partment of a scarcity of paper cur
rency in many sections of the country,
particularly in the eastern states.
Such is the character of the currency
held by the treasury, however, that
practically nothing can be done to re-
lieve the stringency. The treasury
holdings of paper money are no larger
than are required for current bust
ness. 1t is the policy to pay out
currency as far as possible and
keep it in circulation, retaining coins
in the vaults. The effect of this is
shown by the fact that the net gold
balance of the treasury is more than
$246, OOO, 900. Treasury officials say this
shortage Of currency is the result of
general prosperity, the money being
in the hands of the people to a greater
extent than for many years before.
The payment of interest or cance1ing

YOUNG Row Terriblv Tortured.

London, July 29.-The Berlin cor
respondent of the Daily News tele-
graphs a story of incredible brutality
in the works of a Belgian iron company
in the Caucasus. A number of lads
who were suspected of theft were hor-
ribly tortured with view to forcing a
confession. The lads eyelids were
pierced with needles, their bodies were
savagely belabored until they lost con-
sciousness, their teeth were extracted,
large stones were forced into their
mouths and their foreheads were ham
mered with the butts of revolvers.

CAPT. EVANS COMPLAINS.
While Dewey and HIS Men Come Home
Covered With Medals, the Heroes
of Santiago Get Nothing.

Boston, July S1.--Capt. Robley D.
Evans, the senior member of the board
of inspection and survey of the navy,
is in Boston in the course of an official
tour of all the naval stations. In an
interview on the situation in the Phil
ippines and other subjects he said:
It seems to me THAT the navy has got through
with its part of thetPhilippines know Admi-
raj Dewey very wfAl1 indeed. We are all very
proud of him and I've shall all be glad to see
him. 1t is not dor the navy to say what the
army should do except that cannot retreat
under fire. The first thing to be done is to whip
the Filipinos When we have done that we can
tell better what we shall do with them. The
American people can then determine what is to
be done, but it is not for me to express an opin-
ion. That is a matter to be decided by others
The captain was asked to express his
opinion of the Santiago naval fight
and replied:
The battle was fought from start to finish on
SIMPSONS plans Had the admiral failed who
would have been blamed? He succeeded and all
praise belongs to him and should be his. They
say that he did not throw bouquets at US. That
was not what we were there for. We were not
looking for bouquets, but for Spaniards, and
we got them. That was all wanted.

would take her. did not fire single gun my
self, but it is for the man behind the gun-the
jackie that handled it-that care. We officers
were all of US in the navy for life and we knew
that the American people would do Justice.

FOR RESTRICTED SUFFRAGE.
Gov. Gambler, of Georgia, Thinks the Plan
Would Remedy the Race Problem
Evils in the South.

Atlanta, Ga, July 29.-Gov. Allen D.
Gambler has, since the cambridge Sc
ries of lynchings occurred, been asked
by newspapers in various parts of the
country to give his opinion of the race
question in the south, and in reply to
one of them the governor has fully and
freely expressed his views as to the
cause of the conflicts and the remedy
therefor. The governor believes the
present day cause of the uprisings is
the intermeddling with the relations
of the whites and blacks in the south
by ''fools and fanatics who know moth
ing about the situation,'' but thinks
the whole trouble dates from the day
of emancipation. Gov. Gambler be-
1ieves restricted suffrage will remedy
the evils; that the ballot should be
given only to the intelligent negro.
AS to the disposition to be made of the
large percentage of illiterate negroes,
the governor makes no suggestion.

OBJECT OF CATTLE TRUST.
toPrepare Their Own Stock for Market
Options on 25,OOO,OOO Acres.

New York, July 31.-The roundup of
600, 600 head of cattle on the ranches in
the panhandle district of western Tex
as and in eastern New Mexico is con-
templated by the promoters of the pro-
posed Consolidated Cattle company. A
large proportion of the profits which
should be derived from the sale of Texas
and New Mexico cattle in the beef mar
ket is diverted to the northern range
men. With view to remedying this
the Texas cattlemen are to pool their
interest. 1t is proposed that New York
capital to the amount of $50, 0OO, 900
shall be invested in the new company.
Mr.. Loving, who represents the cattle
men, showed options covering %, 900, 900
acres of ranch land in Texas and New
Mexico. Of this vast district 1000, 900
acres are held in fee simple, 1000, 900
are leased to the ranchmen and the
remainder is government land held
by right of prior occupancy.
More than 100000 head of cattle
Craze upon this land. The district COW
cred by the contemplated company en-
braces 800 miles from north to south in
Texas and about 200 miles east and
west in that state and New Mexico.
Asked as to the advantages which the
ranchmen expect to derive if the pro-
posed company becomes a fact, Mr..
Loving said:
believe that expenses can be largely reduced
by such a combination as is proposed. It has
been the rule in Texas and New Mexico that cat
tie at two years old have been taken over by
range men from Montana and Dakota, driven off
to the ranges there matured and sold as beef with
large profits to the range men. We believe that
with such company as is proposed the ranch
men will be enabled to keep the young
cattle on the ranches to mature them there and
instead of selling them as two-year-olds, at say
$50 head, to hold them until fit to be disposed
of on the market at $50 or $50 head Property
can certainly be SScc.ss5dled to better advantage
and ar lass expense by "a company of the magni-
tude proposed than by several hundred compet-
ing ranch owners,

Nebraska had planned with all care for
a welcome to the fighting volunteers

Hancock dropped anchor in the stream
shortly before midnight Saturday
night The committees here from Ne
braska and Utah had given up all idea
of the vessels arriving earlier than
Sunday morning and had prepared to
be up at dawn to greet the
expected ship. But there were
no reception committees afioat at
midnight and only one small dele
cation of Nebraska people aceompa-
MED the custom house officials and the
correspondents on the race down the
bay. Quarantine and customs regula-
tionS prevented even this little band
from getting nearer the deck of the
ship than the approach to the gang
plank. The returning soldiers have no
criticism to offer for their silent recep-
ton. They cheered themselves hoarse
at sight of the little feet of launches
and from the decks of the transport
shouted greetings and messages to the
people on the dancing craft below.
Col. Milford said:
don't think you will see any of returning
to Manila very soon. Just one man in the entire
