Captain Neall Missing.

Captain John NJ. Neall. L. 5. A.. is
missing and his friends fear he is dead.
Most distressing apprehensions are en-
tertained by those who knew him well.
An inspection of the safe in the COM
mandants office at the Preside revealed
a deficit of more than $1,000 in his ac-
counts. Captain Neall left the Preside
left the Preside last Wednesday without
leave and his strange conduct rouse
the suspicion of the military authorities,
who ound upon investigation the deficit
IN his accounts. Squads of soldiers have
been searching the Presidio hills for his
body, as it is thought he committed sui
eide to avoid the shame of detection.
Captain Neall was at one time military
instructor in the Nevada State University
where he was esteemed by all who knew
him. He had gained a reputation as one
of the best officers that ever graduated
from West Point. and had lately been
promoted from the rank of Lieutenant
t" that of Captain.

EAGAN'S PUNISHMENT.

passed upon General Pagan. In fact
nlne-tenths of the population of the
earth would grab at his situation, if
they could get it, speaking from a fl

true that he is permanently dis

financial condition is assured to a
degree beyond that of any other off

GERMANS EXPRESS APPRECIATION
Letter to the Secretary of the Navy
From Admiral Tirpttz.

The Secretary Of the Navy has received
the following letter from Admiral Tirpitz,
minister of marine In the German cabinet,
expressive of the good feeling prevailing In
the highest naval quarters of Germany to-
ward the United States naval authorities:
BERLIN, April II, 1899.
Captain Lieutenant Won Rebeur-Pasch-
WITT, assigned to the imperial German en-
bassy at Washington, has repeatedly
spoken in his reports of the very great
courtesy he has met with in United States
naval circles. On the occasion of his pres
ence in this city said officer confirmed his
reports in words of the warmest and most
grateful appreciation. and expressed the
conviction that 1t was solely through the
valuable assistance of all authorities con-
cerned and the ever-ready courtesy of the
officers Of the United States navy that he
was enabled to discharge his duties during
and after the Spanish-American war.
Captain Lieutenant Won Rebeur-Pasch-

confined in the states prison here. They
deny, however, that 1t was excessive. Su-
perintendent Day says the prisoners be-
came unruly and he could manage them in
no other way. He had five of them whip-
ped, some quite severely. he says, and
others lightly.
AT first I thought the law prohibited
their being whipped he added, land thew
thought so, too, and that's what made thorn
so troublesome. But looked into the maj
ter carefully. and found that there was a
law allowing 1t that has never been repeai-
ed. Since 1 had these men logged they
have given no trouble
During Superintendent Mewborne's ad-
m1nistration, in 1898, the federal prisoners
gave the authorities much trouble. More
than once they mutinied and refused to
work, but they were never logged.

Question Concerning Public Records
Raised by MIR. Robinson.
REPLY BY THE DISTRICT SURVEYOR
The Efforts Made to Preserve
Original Documents.
PREVENTING LOSS OF DATA

The attention of the District Commits
sioners was recently called by Mr.. Conway
Robinson to the fact that certain records
lately transcribed are now being compared
In the office of the District surveyor, which
records are copies of the originals in the
office of the superintendent of public build
ings and grounds. Upon the copies so orig
inally made of the original records certain
annotations have from time to time been
made, he stated, in the surveyors office,
improperly, he thought, but in different
colored ink from the original records. In
comparing these latest copies, he said, the
memoranda so made from time to time are
being carried upon the new copies. In his
opinion the copies now being compared
should be exact reproductions of the origi-
nal copies still in the office of the superin-
tendent of public buildings and grounds
and for that purpose the original records
should be utilized for such comparison and
all subsequent notes omitted and elimi-
mated. For this purpose he suggested that
one volume at a time could be obtained
from the office of the superintendent and
Inconvenience there avoided. By such
means he was of the opinion that the new
copies would be under the law evidence,
but would not be, he thought. If they car
ried with them new matter not on the orig
inal records

PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION

Concerning the Cuban Census Does Not
Meet With Approval.
HAVANA, September La Lucia,
referring to President McKinley's CEN
sus proclamation, says: "A careful
study of the proclamation does not re-
veal, as some seem to think, reasons for
ringing the bells. 1t is not a matter of
any consequence that Secretary Root
has made some ambiguous statements.
for the census inspectors, If the United
States government desires, will say
anything"
Manuel Sanguilly in letter to the
Discussion, says:
'sThe census proclamation has been
the cause of surprises and dissatisfac-
ton. The first time the President of
the United States speaks to the Cubans,
he speaks with the most singing dry
ness. The proclamation is less the
greeting of friend than the disdainful
order of superior.
"Cubans would have welcomed brew
ity and even rudeness, if only the docu-
ment were frank and explicit. OBJ
yiously it does not refer even remotely
to the joint resolution of Congress,
which we had a right to hope would be
referred to. nor even to the time when
the military occupation is to cease. 1t
is obvious from the proclamation that
the United States government has some
plan, though it is not clear that the
plan includes the fulillment of the
joint resolution. Everything is re-
duced to a question of patience. Very
probably Congress will favor the indie
pendence Of the Cubans and be disposed
to give loyal aid to the President in all
his undertakings in Cuba"
At club where he spent last evening
Sanguilly RI Arked to a friend that if
there existed one real Cuban leader he
could sweep the country for either
protectorate or annexation.
Mr.. Ramon Williams, former United
States consul general here, thinks the
idea of a protectorate is growing
stronger every day, He believes that
the Neuvo Pals, the principal advo-
cate OF a solution Of the Cuban prob
lem through protectorate, represents
very largely the feeling Of the influ-
entail classes. He says the paper has
always been a conservative and well
edited sheet, employing some of the
best informed Cuban writer's.
