WIN Replace volunteerr il Not Needed.


Washington, March 3.-In answer to
the direct question whether or not
these troops are intended to relieve a
corresponding number of volunteer
soldiers at Manila, it was said at the
war department that while this would
probably be the case, it was not poSsi-
BILE yet to make a statement. This
means that if, when the reinforce
ments arrive at Manila, the conditions
are satisfactory, the volunteers will be
brought home; but if Otis shall have
need for all of the combined force,
then they must wait.
The reinforcements are made up OF
troops who are not only regulars in
the full sense of the term, but wiio
have been through the Cuban or Por-
to Rican campaigns. They know what
it is to be under fire, how to hunt lit
dians and also how to fight in tropical
jungles. With them replacing the
same number of volunteers Gen. Otis
will have a majority of regulars in
his command, something the war de-
partment has earnestly desired to
bring about at the earliest possible
moment. The position of the Ameri-
can commander at Manila also will be
safeguarded against the effect of Il
sudden and forced discharge of voluE-
teers by the ratification of the peace
treaty.

The Most Frichtful Feature.

Knoxville, Tenn, March 6.-The most
frightful feature of the terrible Madi-
son tornado was the manner in which
Jack Moser met his death. He was
hurled by the winds force from his
house a distance of 700 yards, until
his progress was impedeG by a wire
fence, which completely severed his
head from the body. The remains
were found in that condition by the
rescuing party, which did faithful
work after the storm had subsided.
The little 12-year-old son of Mr.. anu
Mrs. Moser was in their home with
them, but he was blessed with a mirac
ulous escape. not receiving a scratch.
Hugh Hicks and Charles Pierce were
also seriously injured.
Barns Swept Away and Stock Killed.
In addition to the loss of life ana
the destruction of residence property
that has been reported, barns were
swept away and stock killed. The
woodworking and milling plant of j.
Fl. Burleson was also damaged, to.
gether with the costly machinery con.
tanned therein.
The property damaged is not Sc.
cured by storm insurance, and is be
ieved to be a total loss.

Gaping in some cases without a
