Kills Himself.

who, while lieutenant of Company f.,
Fifteenth infantry, fired three times
at Colonel Crofton, and who was dis
missed from the army by the Presi-
dents approval of the court martial
committed suicide last night at the
New Era hotel by taking poison.
The shooting and subsequent trial

Occurred Yesterday Afternoon at Three
O'clock.
In the MeKendree Methodist church
living friends and relatives gathered
yesterday afternoon about the silent
form of her who was SO dear to them,
and the last sad farewells were softly
whispered to her who loved life so,
and yet who so patiently and without
a murmur bore her sufferings for long
months before the silent reaper re-
lieved her from them.
In the graveyard, loving hands laid
her in her last resting place in the
warm earth over which the grass grows
so green and the flowers Of the.summer
time are blooming their brightest and
sweetest.
Mrs. Perry Neil, scarcely more than
a child, yet having known the glad
dest Of life's gifts, sleeps gently, SO
soon, yet her short life seems com
plabed, and those who mourn her los,

rainy season in fact has already fairly
begun.

Rita, west of Bacolod. He encountered
considerable resistance from the enemy
and had several men wounded
There was also a brush with the
enemy at Mariquina and later at Pa
say, where a line of insurgent skir-
mishers who were shielding a force of
trench diggers attacked General Oven
shines lines. The rebels were repulsed
by a battalion of the First Idaho In
fantry and two companies OF the Twen-
tieth Infantry. The Americans had two
men killed and two wounded.
These attacks upon the American
forces to-day, while Aguinaldo's COM
missoners are in Manila negotiating
for peace are held to show a lack of
control of the rebel chiefs over their
followers and the futlity of negotia-
tions while armed rebels still keep the
field.
Recent events and negotiations for
peace have not brought about any
change in the American military policy
SO long as rebels appear in arms they
will be attacked and dispersed.
The railway tracks have been re-
paired and the first train reached San
Fernando this morning.
The Spanish newspaper, Oceania, has
been suppressed by the military au-
thorities and the editor arrested for
publishing Objectionable articles.
Two battalions of the Sixth Artillery
and 260 marines arrived here from San

HEADS OFF AMERICA
Must Reach Manila by Wire Via
Wake Island or Not
at All.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

4 NIEW YORK, May 23.-The Wash
N ingtor correspondent of the
Herald telegraphs: I learned to-
day that the attention of the State
Department. has been called to the re-
cent occupation by Japan of Marcus
Island, IN the Pacific. The acquisition
of this island by Japan has had the
effect of causing a change in the in
structions given to the collier Nero,
which is surveying the cable route
proposed by Rear Admiral Bradford.
This route avoids Wake Island,
which was taken possession of by the
gunboat Bennington in the name of
the United States, and contemplated
the laying of q cable between Homo
lulu and Midway Island, acknowl-
edged to be American, which pos
sesses a hsrbor capable, with slight
improvements, of accommodating
vessels OF light Iraught.
The distance between Honolulu
and Midway is 116O miles. The prop
osition was then to connect Midway
and Marcus Island, 1900 miles apart,
with Guam, the next cable station be-
ing only $40 miles distant from Mar
Gus Island
Marcus Island is 1000 miles from
Yokohama and was placed by the
United States man-of-war Tuscarora
in 1874, in latitude % degrees 10
minutes north, longitude 154 degrees
east.
Reports received at the Navy De-
Partment regarding Wake Island
show that it is of little value as
cable station, being but few feet
above the sea and frequently sub
merged.
