ALGER SPEAKS AGAIN.


DETROIT, Mich, May 4-Russell A AL
ger. secretary of war. was one OF the speak
ers of the evening tonight at the fifteenth
annual banquet of the Michigan Command
cry, Order of the Loyal Legion. in the Hotel
Cadillac. There were present two hundred
OF General Ayers comrades. officers of the
civil war. Responding TO calls for a speech
the secretary said:
II am glad to be here among my old COM
rades who Know what war Is, and can ap-
preciate the difficulties and drawbacks. and
l know you're thinking tonight of our SOL
diers in far-of Manila. and linking of
them with pride. 1 assure you that. while
they have had many hardships. incident to
the tropical climate. etc, there has been
not one complaint from that arm of twen-
ty-fve thousand men. They have taught
the world that to face an American army
Is to face that which Is invincible.
w have learned during the past year the
necessity TO be prepared for war. Our SOL
diers landed In Cuba the I'D of June and on
the 18th of July more Of the enemy surren-
dered to them than there were of them.
There is bound to be privation and suffering
In the field. Some people thought the sol
diers were net we'll treated and made much
of the fact that some OF the beef spoiled,
but the boys did not murmur. l hope that
these things have taught us TO be prepared
for emergencies. We cannot look far into
the future, but we believe that what Is gov
erned by a hand higher than ours will be
II trust that our flag. wherever it has
been placed, will never be hauled down. We
are going TO stay in those far-off islands
with our forces until those people are able
to govern themselves. The President said
to me. Give those Michigan companions
my love- Let US drink TO the health of
Companion Mckinley. Good night and God
bless YOU"
The toast was drunk standing.

It." was responded to by Gen. Horatio G.
King. of New York. Abiding to recent ma
tional events he asserted that the country
was expanding until he would not wonder IL
We owned the earth. But" added the gen.
eral, 1.-The boys of 1851 are no back numbers.
The boys of 1898 did grand things at Santi-
ago. but If we of 1861 had done no more
fighting than that we would have hardly a
half column in the newspapers. The people
will never forget the boys of 1861 and their
succession of mighty victories" General
King ridiculed the complaints of some of
the younger generation OF soldiers regarding
lack of conveniences in the Cuban cam
paigh. He declined to call them sufferings,
for he denied there were any remarkable
sufferings caused by lack of. supplies and

CAPT. CoGHLAN,s WIFE.
A Former Terre Hnute Girl and
Favorite I'm Society.

Mrs. Coghlan, the wife of the gallant cap
tain of the cruiser Raleigh. has received q
generous share of the interest aroused by
the advent of her brave husband and his
fighting crew in Philadelphia waters. And
justly so, for throughout the captains naval
career she has been ever near him, lending
the inspiration of her presence as an in
centive 10 the deeds of daring which have
wreathed his brows with laurel.
To be sure there is a naval regulation pro-
hibiting the wives of officers TO live aboard
ship. but on whatever station Captain Cogh-
Ian has been assigned his wife has either
followed or preceded him to the nearest port
and there remained, seeing him when she
could and living as close to him as clrcum-
stances would permit. She now calls hersele
a cosmopolitan, for her home has been in
turn up the Mediterranean, on the China,
European and South American stations. and
al the Mare Island navy yard. In San Fran
cisco, and for two years in the national
capital, when her husband was detailed at
the photographic Bureau Of the Navy De-
partment.
Mrs. Coghian's maiden name was Miss
Julia Barbour. of Terre Haute, Ind She
was attending school at a convent when
Capt. Coghlan. then a young naval officer.
met her. 1t was a case OF love at first
sight and their marriage quickly followed.
Her manners are charming. and her tact.
grace and wit make her a charming conver-
sationalist. The Coghlans' only child, Ora
ham Coghian. is twenty-one years old. and.
like his father. is enamored Of the sea- He
is at present in the employ Of the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company, running between
Panama and San Francisco.

GEORGETOWN. o., May Mr.. Fred
erick Kautz. OF this city. has received a
letter from Admiral Kautz. his brother, at
Samoa, in which he recounts some of his
recent official history already known TO all
the world. BY way Of information for his
brother the admiral notes that the Berlin
treaty provided that in case OF the death
of the King OF Samoa the chief justice
should select his successor. This the chief
justice did last August, when the King
died. selecting his son Maleate. A revolt
ton was started JAN l and the English
and American corsuls had TO make a COM
promise and accept a provisional government
TO stop the war, with Mataafa and thirteen
chiefs in charge. who were wanted by the
German consul general and his adherents."
Admiral Kautz then adds: When ] came
! said to the American and English con-
suls: You did this because you were too
weak to do anything else. Now that We are
stronger let US undo the wrong and we
did. I had no idea OF doing anything but
holding an investigation on what had been
done here since Jan. 1, but the German
consul general was arrogant and unreason-
able. so that I was obliged to do something
or suffer disgrace, even in my own estiIna-
ton. / therefore concluded to do what ought
to be done and refer the matter to the
government later on" The admiral says he
followed instructions literally and has no
fears OF consequences.
