Wholesale Pilfering.

A mysterious sneak thief has been op-
Grating at the Fairlawn hotel for some
time past, much to the annoyance Of
Mrs. Carpenter, the proprietress OF the
hotel and to the regular boarders who
had to watch their effects rather closely
or they would have had much missing.
1t was some time before suspicion was
directed toward any one connected with
the house, but after a close watch it was
determined that woman Who was cook
at the house was doing the thieving.
Under Sheriff George r. Barton was
notified and he also kept watch. At
last it was decided to make search Of
the woman's trunk, rs it was she who
was continually making accusations
against the other help at the hotel, 80
that attention was at last directed to-
ward herself.
An examination of the woman's trunk
was made and there was found consider
able jewelry belonging to the family,
several spoons which had been present
ed to Miss Susa Carpenter, and quite q
lot of table ware.
Besides these things there were other
articles, including wearing apparel and
nisknacs, taken from the rooms OF the
house. A great quantity of souvenir
spoons evidently taken from some other
place whore she had worked, were also
discovered.
She was then accused of the thefts
and taken in charge by Officer Barton.
However, OF account Of the fact that she
was woman, Mrs. Carpenter, who after
recovering the greater portion OF her
goods did not like to prosecute her and
very oharitably allowed her to leave the
city, which she did last night.

POLITICIANS FIGHT.
Row Arose Over Contest for Rhea's
Seat in Congress.

Chattanooga, Tenn. March 11.-A special
to the Times from Bristol says:
General James A. Walker and w. s. Ham,
ilton, attorney for Judge w. F. Rhea, who
is engaged In contest with General Walk
er for the congressional toga of the Ninth
Virginia district, met in furious combat
tonight. They were engaged in taking de-
positions in the contest. Hamilton ad-
vanced upon Walker. who shot him In the
abdomen. The wound Is considered fatal.
c. q. Davis, private secretary to Judge
Rhea, shot General Walker twice in the
right shoulder, seriously wounding him.
The sentiment here Is decidedly against
Hamilton and Davis. The latter has made
statements previous to the shooting as TO
what he would do to General Walker In
the event an alteration arose.
General Walker is resting easily, whilo
Hamilton is suffering. Intense excitement
prevails In the city.

Is NOT THE FAULT
OF THE OFFICIALS
That Troops in Manila Are Not
Armed With Krag-Jorgensens.
NEW RIFLE HARD TO MANAGE
The Old Springfield Will Stand Any
Amount of Rough Treatment, and
Not Being Complex is Easily
Understood and Operated.
NEW RIFLE HARD TO MANAGE

Washington, March 1.-THE ordnance off,
cials of the war department declare that
the criticisms passed upon the department
in some quarters because all of the troops
in the Philippines are not equipped with
Krag-Jorgensen rifles are based upon a mis-
apprehension of the facts. 1t is not denied
that the Spanish Mauser has longer range
than the 45-calibre Springfield. even when
the latter is using smokeless powder.
But the military consnanding officers in
the Philippines were given the option Of
using the Springfield or the Krag-Jorgen-
sen and decided in favor of the former, at
least for the time being. That is why the
5000 Krag-Jorgensens are lying at Benicia
arsenal, California, subject to the requisi-
ton of Major-General Otis. and 1t is not
because the department Is either unwilling
or unable to transport them to Manila.
All of the regular troops now at Manila
and now on the way are armed with the
magazine rifle. The volunteers have the
Springfield because the military command
ers in the Philippines regard 1t as the bet
ter weapon. when used with smokeless pow
der, for the unskillful handling of volun-
teers. The difference in effective range is
really not very great and the Springfield
45-ball is almost sure to kill, where the
small ball Mauser only wounds. Aside
from this, there is one great advantage
In the Springfield-namely, simplicity and
strength. The volunteer soldier finds the
complex mechanism of the modern rifle diff
fcult to care for and to use, while the
Springfield will stand any amount of rough
handling and it is this reason more than
any other that has inclined the more ex-
perienced army officers to refrain from
armng the volunteers with a weapon with
which they would not become familiar be-
fore the expiration of their terms of enlist
ment.

Admiral Higginson Declines to
Accept Further Promotion.
HIS WORK OFF SANTIAGO
Not Deemed of Such Conspicuous
Merit as to Warrant Advancement
Over Other officers Older
Than He in Service.

Washington, March 1.-Two things, in
the opinion of Secretary Long. so credible
to the naval service have occurred recently
Is the request of Admiral Higginson, which
is contained in the following letter:
Washington, March TO- 1899.
"Sir: l respectfully ask to be allowed to
resume my former number on the naval
list after Rear Admiral Kempff. While
deeply grateful to the president and your
self for my nomination for work done off
Santiago, 1 do not regard my own services
as so conspicuous as to warrant my ad-
vancement, while the other commanding
officers nominated at the same time as my
self go unrewarded They were a gallant
band of naval officers, and certainly de-
served well of their country, and If their
services are to go unrecognized, / desire to
share the same fate.
Very respectfully,
FRANCIS ]. HIGGINSON,
"Rear Admiral u. s. NJ"
ITO Hon. John D. Long, Secretary Navy"
Admiral Higginson's name was one of the
longest sent in by the president for gallant
tence Admiral Higginson was confirmed
apart from the rest. which the senate ad-
journed without confirming.
Secretary Long has addressed the follow
ing letter to the admiral:
''Will you let me express my high appre-
citation of your very handsome and con-
siderate conduct In asking to resume your
former number on the navy list rather than
to accept the advancement which places you
above other officers, who for their gallant
services In the recent war, deserved recog-
milton, but failed to receive it, owing to the
failure of the senate to act upon the rec
concentrations sent in by the president. The
spirit which you manifest is SO admirable
that hasten to write you this letter.
The other is the case of Lieutenant Aaron
Ward, who was recommended by the board
of promotions for advancement. On learn
ing of this he wrote to the department de-
clining advancement inasmuch as 1t gave
him precedence over his classmate, Lieu
tenant Staunton, stating that he did not feel
that his actions in which his vessel was en-
gagged were of so great value as to justify
him in availing himself of the opportunity.
"It is impossible" he said, "for me will
deprive such an officer of "a commission In
the highest grade"
The recommendation made by the board
of promotions In the case of Lieutenant
Ward was not sent into the senate. all the
promotions recommended by the board hav-
ing been held back to await the result of
those which have been pending since the
opening of the session, and which the senate
adjourned without confirming.

wdGE LER's FUTURE STATUS.
Seems That No Room Will Be Found
for Him in the Army.

Washington, March u.-General Joe
Wheeler saw the president today concern
ing his future status. Subsequently he said
that while the question of his remaining in
1t was probable that he would not remain
In the service. He thought the president
would be unable to find place for him,
and he was not pushing the matter.
"But would like to remain in the SER
vice." he said, "and be sent to the Philip
pines, where there Is fighting. would not
care so much to stay in the army If I had
to remain in this country
