termine the cause of death as demanded by
relatives of the woman. Word was received
tonight that the Duluth authorities had is
sued permit to allow the body to be
brought again to this city. Coroner Downs,
with a hearse, went to the grave and COM
menced TO open it. While so engaged a mob
of $50 Jews of the faction opposed to the
disinterment attacked him and he was COM
PEELED to desst. Downs returned here I'M
der close surveillance. He proposes to go
out about midnight with enough of follow
ing to bring the body to this city, where
DR.. Conklin will hold an examination to-
morrow. In the Jewish Tabernacle this

tons, brothers and relatives of the dead

Eagan'. Chief Clerk Resigns.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15-Apparently there
were no developments to-day in the case
growing out of the attack made by Commits
sary General Eagan upon General Miles in
the formers appearance before the war in
VestigatiOn commission. During the COM
ing week the probability is some word will
be received by the war investigation COM
mission from General Eagan in answer to
the letter of that body suggesting the ex-
purgation of the Objectionable part of his
testimony. General Eagan declines to make
any statement in the matter for publication
at this time.
William DeCandry, the chief clerk of the
commissary generals office of the War De-
partment, is out in card admitting that he
had mailed his resignation to the secretary
OF war through Eagan on the morning aft
er the submission of the latters paper to
the war investigation commission. He says
the report that the tender of it was due to
the action of General Eagan in giving prac-
tical supervision and control of the office
of chief clerk to his military assistant can
only be surmised The card continues:

OUR NEW POSSESSIONS.
The Old and OutwOrn Arguments
Against Expansion.

Philadelphia Times.
No nation can stand still; it must advance
or recede. The acquisition of foreign prov
inces in the East Indies and the ASiatic seas
came to us by the memorable logic OF events.
We must either accept them with all the re-
sponsibilities they bring upon us, or we
must reject them and confess our inability
to become one of the important ruling pow
ers of the world We are proposing nothing
in the Philippines that we have not done
at home and the Philippines are hundred
fold nearer to US to-day than Louisiana was
nearly a century ago.
When Senators Hoar, Sherman and Ed
munds entered public life as national law
makers, the dusky barbarian ruled one
fourth of our territory between the Eastern
and western seas. To-day the Indian has
given way to civilization and a grand gal
axy of sovereign States is presented where
the barbarian was omnipotent half CEN
fury ago. Alaska was opposed because 1t had
no attributes of civilization, but who would
part with Alaska to-day for ten times its
cost when acquired?
We are hearing only the old, old story
against territorial expansion ana nauonal
advancement. 1t comes with equal ability
and sincerity as 1t came a century ago, but
the Republic is a century older and has dur
ing that period outstripped all the nations
of the earth in the grandeur of it's advance
ment. 1t has been brought face to face with
a new destiny, not by any political machin-
atoms or even studied purposes of our
craftsmanship 1t has become interviewer
with the ruling civilized powers of the
Which shall it be?
TO recede would be to confess the Repub-
lie failure. To advance means that what
ever may be the responsibilities accepted,
we are fully equal to the task and prepared
to join in the now clearly apparent mastery
of the Anglo-Saxon race throughout the
now as ever in the past, with patriotic fer
Vor and mastery ability, but the destiny
of nations is Godmade and the Republic
will advance to the full stature Of our

Boston Woman Suffers No IncOnven-

May 81 last, in this city. and the patient is

Protest Against a TarIn Decision.

LONDON, Jan. 16-The Berlin CORE
spondent of the Times says: The Cologne
Gazette, commenting upon the decision of
the United States Supreme Court regarding
cotton velvet. says the rule will of course
be applied to all German manufacturers, so
that ii will be useless in the future for
German manufacturer to produce his goods
in bond with view to saving the duty on
raw material. The article concludes: To
put it briefly, imports to America are for
hidden. and the export trade is destroyed
at least for countries which, like Germany
and France must pay considerable duties
upon the raw material they import For a
country which, like Great Britain. does not
impose a duty upon raw material, the de-
cision. in the opinion of the Cologne Ga
zette, cannot be regarded as bad news, mas
much as. for once, extreme protection would
seem to have done free trade good turn in
the course of the internecine war of pro-
tectionist countries"

HOBsON'S EXPLOIT.
The Lieutenant's OScuIatOry Feats as

London Speaker.

London Speaker.
Lieutenant Hobson seems to be engaged
in kissing the female population of the
United States. This dominance of a mas
culine personality attests the vigor and ten
acity of old-fashioned notions even in a new
fair ought to be a worn-out sentiment
amongst a people who have produced the
most advanced ideas of feminine emancipa-
ton. Why this trucking to the conventional
hero? In what respect is it superior in prln-
ciple to the average nursemad's passion for
version the world has seen to the prlml-
tive home of women to martial prowess.
There is no parallel to it in our own his
tory Here and there a woman has pros
trated herself before a British champion.
We have seen Emma Hamilton in the fore
ground of a national triumph. But when has

Lord Kitchener has done a good deal to re-
ViVe the war-like ferVor in bosoms which

he is a very personabe man; but who pro-
posed to kiss him in public? The charge Of
the TWenty-first Lancers is one of those
prodigies of valor which stir the heart of a
nation, but ii has never entered a lancer
head that his country-women would expect
him to embrace them. The triumphant prog
ress of Lieutenant Hobson must disquiet
those reformers who imagine that the eX-
pansion of the suffrage to women will erad-
icate the fighting instinct. No achievement
in the arts OF peace in America for the last

Eagan Condemns Eagan.
Philadelphia Times.

HHHduelp0ld Times.
The general trend of the evidence given
by General Eagan may or may not prove
of value to the commission for the pur-
poses for, which it is. appointed, but it is
exceedingly difficult for any one to under
stand what information could have been
conveyed to the distinguished citizens who
compose the investigating body by the
outrageous and manifestIy malicious Ian
guage used by the commissary general in
his reference to the general-in-chief of the
army. 1t is plainly apparent that in calling
General Miles "a liar, who lied in his
throat, lied in his heart, and lied in every
part of his body" and declaring that the
senior major general should be "drummed
out of the service and shut out of the
clubs, General Eagan served no purpose
other than to give vent to his personal
spleen, unless it was to demonstrate for
the benefit of the people of the United
States his own incapacity to control his
temper and govern himself, much less to
exercise proper supervision over the inn
portant branch of the War Department of
which he is the head. Taking a horizontal
view of Commssary General Eagan's per-
Torrance in this matter the conclusion is
inevitable that all that has been testified to
before the commission on the subject of the
incompetent administration of the COM
miSsary department has been fully verified
by the cOmmissary general himself.

CADETS GIVEN BIBLES.
Annual Presentation to the Naval
Academy Graduating Class.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Jan. 15.-The annual
presentation of Bibles to the graduating
class at the Naval Academy by the Ameri-
can Seamans Friend Society was made to-
day in the chapel of the academy. Rev. DR..
Stitt, of New York, delivered the presenta-
ton sermon. Forty cadets were given
copies of the revised edition of the Bible,
four Catholics chose the Douay edition and
nine cadets selected other books, explaining
that they. already had copies of the Bible.
The presentation occurred several months
earlier this year because the first class will
be graduated after the February semi-an-
nuaI examinations, and probably will be
ordered into active service Immediately
thereafter.
