mand of the allied forces, was shot
through the heart.
Lieut.. Philip Van Horn Lansdale, of the
Chlted' States cruiser Philadelphia. had
ms leg shattered while endeavoriug to fix
the jammed gun.
Hunts Marvellous Escape.
Seaman Hunt. of the British cruiser
Forpolse, had an extraordinary escape. He
remained with Lieut., Lansdale until club
ped over the head and knocked senseless.
The blue Jacket revived as the natives
were cutting off his right ear and were
turning him over in order TO cut off mis-
Left ear. At this juncture a shell from the
BRUSH cruiser Royalst burst on the bat
tleheld, soaring the rebels and Hunt sue
cesded in escaping to the beach, although
severely stabbed in one foot.
The same night the friendles found the
bodies of all the officers, headless. The
bodies We're buried with all honors at
Mullnuu on Easter Sunday. Their heads
We're subsequently brought in by some
French priests. The graves were reopen
ed and the heads buried with the bodies
Leuts. Freeman and Lansdale were cap
able and popular officers. The former was
single and the latter was married in June.
Fifty Rebels Killed.
The officers who returned are Lieut..
George E. Cave of the Porpoise. and Lieut.
c. M. Perkins of the Philadelphia All
behaved splendidly. Lieut.. Cave took
command of the retreat
Capt. Sturdee of the Porpose, was away
on an expedition with his cruiser and
Gaunts brigade was also absent on duty.
The loss of the enemy is not known, but
probably fifty of the rebels were killed and
many were wounded. The bodies of three
rebels were found near the spot where
nd Of
the Philadelphia were killed.
The priests buried thirty eight rebels
and much blood was seen on the road over
which the Mataafans had been dragging
away their dead and wounded. There were
also pools of blood behind the cocoanut
trees, the bullets from the American and
British rifles going right through thick
trees and killing men hiding behind them.
Some of the rebels fired from the tops Of
cocoanut palms.
More Forces Are Needed.
The rebels opened fire near the town
last evening. 1t is proposed to summon
another warship to distribute more arms
among the -friendles, and to import ad-
ditional friendlies from Tutules.
1t is also suggested that troops might
be obtained from New Zealand or Sydney,
New South Wales
If a sufficient quantity of arms could be
obtained, about 1000 friendlies could be
used against the Mataafans But they
are not brave and have not shown fight
ing qualities excepting those with Gaunt's
brigade and that force may not accom-
plish much.
Admiral Kautz, Capt. E. w. White, of
the Philadelphia, and the American men
and officers generally have earned golden
opinions, as have Capts. Stuart and Stur-
dee of the British navy. They are doing
everything possible, and every one recog-
nizes that better men could not be han
ding the situation.
The Samoans say Mataafa on three oc-
casions had resolved to surrender but
the German consul, Herr Rose, advised
him not to do so. and he now says he will
never give in, but will fight to the death.

Our Fire Brigade.
Ifs Efficiency Has ManfestedIts at Fire last
| Friday.

The alarm from Box IA at 10 o'clock
Friday morning called the department
to the residence of VIM. Jahnke, front
ing on the G. 6 N. W. track near Sd
North street. With promptness credi.
table to the boys, in fact, barely two
minutes after the sounding of the alarm
the department was hurrying to the
scene and after ten minutes of hard work
the fire was under control. By ascend
ing to the roof of the burning building
and cutting hole through it, stream
of water could be directed towards the
flames with telling effect.
Better and quicker work was never
done in this city and couldn't be out
done by any well-trained professional
fire department. The boys deserve full
credit for their zeal.
The fire originated from causes un-
kno Un in second story closet and was
spreading rapidly when the fire brigade
arrived. The damage done was mainly
to the household goods and will pre- b.
ably reach 5000, which is fully covered
by an insurance of 5000 on the house
and $500 on the furniture. The loss
done by this fire was adjusted three days
later, and the insurane company of which
Mr.. N. Henningsen is the local agent
agreed to repair all damage done.
The vacant frame building on Frank
lin street between 5th and 9th NORTH
streets was burned Friday night. NJ
arlarm having been sounded the depart
ment did not turn out, but no reason
has been so far assignd for the omis
sion Of giving the alarm. The building
was not worth much and danger to tn,
surroundings was not imminent, but al
alarm should have been turned in never
theless. Causes of the confagration art
not known, although incendiarism is sus
pected.

A Pioneer
Laid to Rest.
II. a. Subilia succumbs to the Inevitable, aged
Eighty Years.

Henry A. Subilia died Saturday morn
ing at his residence, aged eighty years
and was laid to rest III the city cemetery
yesterday afternoon. He leaves four
sons, Henry A., e.. A., Edward and Jerry
and one daughter, Mrs. J. Brey. The To-
cal lodge of Masons and the Turner Yer
elm attended the funeral, the ceremonies
being observed at Turner Hall after the
usual rite of the order.
Mr.. Subilia was born in Jean, Italy on
May 1st 1919. Receiving thorough
college education he travelled extensive
ly through nearly all Europe and finally,
in the fortles, he located in Berlin, Ger
many. His impulsive nature brought
him in contact with the elements dissat-
lsfed with the government, he became
entangled in the political conspiracies,
and after the revolution of 184S was
quelled, -Subilia was forced to leave Ber-
lin, in fact Europe, in order to save his
liberty, perhaps his life. He emigrated
to this country and being master of sew
en- languages he soon found lucrative
employment in the mercantile line. In
1858 he came from Chicago to New Ulm
where he located permanently. Soon
after his arrival he built the distillery,
at the foot of the hill crowned by Her.
mann's monument and which was subse-
quently destroyed duriag the Indian out
break, the ruins still rem aiming. He was
one of the founders of til, New Ulm
Roller Mills and was at the nead of this
enterprise for many years until he retired
from business life. Widely known in
this community, esteemed by all who
knew him he passed away in peace, al.
though the last years of his life were
made rather unpleasant to him by sick
ness. An eventful career, richly inter
lspersed with adventurous political ex-
ploits, while in the full vigor of manhood
and ambition, governed by strongly de-
veloped love for his country and freedom
and honorable to the last, has come to 8
close. That restless nature, impulsive
heroic and always honorable and philan.
tbropic has come to an eternal rest, that
strong spirit, at one time indomitable
and willing to help reyOlut1OnlZe a WORLD
has wandered away to the unknown IanG
whence there is no return. May he rest
in peace.
!. G. A. and H. A. Subilia Jr., of T racy
attended the funeral of their father and
twenty members of the Masonic lodge Of
Sleepy Eye came over here to help lay
their departed brother to his last rest.

Admirals Won Diedrichs, Dewey, Schley
and-well there are others he heard of,
like Sampson, Alger and Eagan; he
knows all about Lind's great victory and
declared in CONCLUSION that he will sure
~ have chance next year to vote for
Lind. To conclude with, he said that
he would subscribe to the New Ulm Re-
view.

Railroads
Active.
Work on the Omaha Extension Began in
Earnest.

1.-The actual work on the Omaha exten-
Zion of the M. s. st. L. road was begun
Monday after opening of the bids sub
mitted by the several contractors to the
road officials last week.
The bids Of Johnson Bros. & Taught
of st. Elmo, ILL.,, and John Scott & Sons
OF st. Louis were neck and neck for the
lowest figures, The former bid was on
the whole work and the latter on all or
half. Chief Engineer Kelley of the M.
&. St. L. asked B. F. johnson If his firm
&gpuld consent to do part of the work
for the same prices as for the whole.
Mr.. johnson agreed, and after some more
figuring his firm vas given the general
contract from New Ulm to Spencer, To-
wa, and the firm of John Scott s. Sons

and about 5000 men. There is no limit
to the number of teams he can use. He
would accept 5000 good teams if they
were offered. Ne man in the northwest
who has good team need let it be idle

to be accomplished with the aid of a
temporary track and bridge.

rooms in the Boesch building and Will
retain them until the completion of the

MOORE WILL DON STRIPES.
Efforts to Keep Him Oui of Prison
VIII Fail.

New York. Jan. 1.-THE application Of
William A. E. Moore, the badger thief
who was sentenced to nineteen years i'm
prisonment, for a certificate OF reasonable
doubt that his conviction Will stand an ap-
peal, has been denied by Justice Nash OF
the Supreme Court. Unless Moore can get
a stay from Justice Nash on appeal from
the decision he will have to begin the serv-
ice of his term while the appeal is pend
ing There is small chance Of such a stay
and the chances are that Moore will begin
TO serve his term next week after the order
is entered on the decision of Justice Nash.
The district attorney announced today
that he would appear before Justice Furs-
man on Monday in the criminal bench of
the Supreme Court and ask that day be
fixed for the trial Of Mrs. fayne Moore,
who was jointly indicted with her husband
on the charge of having worked the
badger game upon Martin Mahon, pro-
prietor OF the New Amsterdam Hotel.
Shortly after the arrest of the MOores,
said the district attorney, Il heard that a
justice OF a high court of another State
had been d victim of these people. We
were unable to run this report down.

MIR. ALIENS RESOLUTION.
Owing 10 the Death OF Mr. DinrIsy
Consideration Was Postponed.

Senator Allen in the Senate yesterday
called up his resolution for an investigation
of the late war Mr. Hoar suggested that
MIR. Allen eliminate from his resolution
TIE clause which provides that The Investi-
eating committee shall he composed O. the
three political parties. Mr.. Hoar helie"ed
that the committee would be selected in
that manner He indicated that he should
like TO vote for the resolution.
DIR. Allison wanted the resolution TO 90
TO the Committee on Military Affairs.
Mr.. Allen said he should like 10 discuss
IL first as he knew the resolution would
find its death in that committee. He had
no faith in the Alger Relief Commission
or in the War Department commission
which was Investigating the question of
embalmed beef alleged to have been fur
nished soldiers by Commissary General C.
p Eagan.
Mr.. SpOoner here took issue with Mr..
Allen and said he had no right 10 critcise
report that had as yet not been made.
MIR. Allen indicated that there We're many
ways in which ii was evident that the re-
port would be unsatisfactory. He did not
expect a commission TO critcise an appoint
ing power From his own knowledge he
said the soldiers We're not provisioned as
they should have been. and he severely
criticised the location of camps. saying il
had proven very disastrous to take troops
from the Northwestern States and station
them in Southern camps to swelter and
die with fever, when they might just as
well have stayed in a climate to which
they were accustomed.
At this point the resolutions from the
House announcing the death of Mr.. Ding
ley were received and Mr.. Aliens resolu-
tion was temporarily laid aside until Mon
day.
