Manila, March 1850 P. M.-The Fill
pinos apparently had planned an at
tack upon the lines of Gen. Otis and
Gen. Hale. this morning, but the cour-
| age seemed to fail them, though they
fired signals and afterwards kept up
the fusilade along the American front
for an hour. Our troops, in obedience
to orders. refrained from shooting, with
| the exception of two companies of new
ly arrived men. who replied until they
had suppressed regiment of Aguin-
aldos Red Brigade. This body of
rebels seemed under better leadership
than most of the others: and a white
man was seen among the officers en-
deavoring to lead them to an attack,
but, apparently, all efforts to induce
them to leave the trenches were futile

WASHINGTON NOTES.
Foreign Interest in Our Nayy-Asiatic Fleets
Head Money-Army Matters.

Washington. March 12-Lieut. De
FaramOnd, of the French navy, recent
ly arrived here in company with the
French ambassador, NJ. Cambon, to be-
come naval attache of the French en-
bassy. Lieut. De Faramond has had
wide experience as naval observer,
following the Japanese and Chinese
vessels through the China-Japan war
and now coming here to study Ameri-
can naval methods. Speaking of the
American navy, today. Lieut.. De Fara-
mond said:
1.-The American navy has attracted
world wide attention within the last
year and this is leading European
countries to send naval attaches to
Washington. This will be the first
time the French government has had
a naval attache with the embassy. A
German naval officer is coming to the
German embassy and other countries
doubtless will follow in the same line.
Since the Spanish-American war this
country affords splendid facilities for
naval study. 1t was the first real test
of modern fighting vessels and naval
science must draw it's conclusions
largely from what the American navy
accomplished during the war with
Spain.
II think it Is universally conceded in
Europe that the American navy made
a splendid record not only in a general
way. but in technical matters of naval
detail. 1t demonstrated the effective
ness of the rapid fire gun of medium
calibrc. rather than the larger guns.

port of the motion to impeach and re-
move Gen. Gomez against four in op-

The meeting lasted from 2 o'clock
until Z. Gen. Gomez's only supporters
were Gen. Cespedes and Gen. Nunez.
The original motion, which was intro
duced by Senior Manuel Sanguilly, pro-
vided for the abolition of the grade of
general-in-chief. but an amendment
was offered to this by Senior Aguerro
which read to abolish the grade Of gen.
eral-in-chief, and to remove Gen. Co
mez for failure in his military duties
and disobedience to the Assembly,"
Senior Aguerro declared that Gomez
was insubordinate and should be pun
ished, and Senior Sanguilly insinuated
that the general was a traitor to Cuba.
Much passion was evident in the
speeches, in some of which Gomez was
declared to have been delinquent in his

ThEW0RGY HELD
For the Grand Jury on the
Charge Of Murder.
Bucksport Undecided on Value Of Evil
dence Of Joseph Fogg.
Prisoner to Be Taken to Ellsworth Jail to
Await April Court.

Bucksport, Me-, March 12.-William
7. Treworgy must remain in imprison-
ment until the grand jury. which will
meet in Ellsworth the second Tuesday
in April, shall have considered the
charge against him Of having murdered
Sarah Ware in Bucksport, in the night
of Sept. II, 1898.
This was the decision of Judge Chase,
after hearing the testimony introduced
in behalf of the State in the prelimi-
nary hearing which came to close,
Saturday afternoon. Not single wit
ness was put on by the defence.
The testimony of Joseph F. Fogg,
given, Friday, thus stood uncomfortable
ted, and, strange as Fogg's testimony
was, it furnished probable cause for
holding the respondent for further
examination.
Two things seem to have been estab-
lished by the hearing with reasonable
certainty. First, that Sarah Ware was
murdered for in no other way can be
explained the terrible condition of her
SKULL the broken fragments of which
We're displayed and identified in the
court room, Saturday.
Second, she was not murdered on her
way home from the Fogg store in the
evening of Sept. II, as has been gener-
ally minated. This is proved by the
fact that when the body was found,
there was lying under it the waterproof
cape which has figured extensively in
the testimony, and which she was not
wearing when she called at the Fogg
store, nor when she made the previous
call upon John Bolduc.
Moreover she carried on those occa
sions small hand bag. This hand
bag or satchel was not found with the
body, but was found the next Thurs
day, in her room in the Miles cottage.
Upon the story told by young Fogg
on the witness stand apparently rests
the fate of the prisoner, Treworgy. for
with the exception of that story, there
has thus far been shown little evidence
to connect him with the crime.

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES

Feed skim milk calves grain as soon
as they win eat it. The fat forming
habit gained in their first three
months will stick to them.
Fall calves come in at time when
they can be disposed of at profit, for
meat is usually higher then than in
the spring, when there is a surplus Of
calves. The sale Of these may buy al
most the whole Of the feed for the
cows for the winter.
The character Of the food influences
the yield of butter from any COW.
Succulent food increases the flow Of
milk, although it does not increase
the percentage Of water in it. While
the flow of milk is Of as fully good
quality as at other times.
Cows which die at ealving time are
usually off a flush pasture. It is
good plan, in the warm summer
months, to avoid milk fever by shut
ting up the cows in the barn for two
or three weeks before parturition, and
feeding them nothing but dry hay and
oats.
It is perhaps too much to expect all
farmers to keep thoroughbred cows.
for they could not afford the cost. but
there are often excellent cows among
highly graded stock, which, if careful
II selected. will prove all that one
could ask. The great secret is in
knowing and c1lling out those which
are unpro6t Rural World.

Imitation Butter In Cuba.

American butter sells for less in
the Cuban market than butter from
France, Holland and Denmark. And
yet American butter is generally bet
ter than that coming from the other
countries. The trouble is that cleo
margarine and other limitations are
sold in Cuba as American butter. It
is precisely the same dishonest meth
DDS which have 50 greatly injured the
American butter trade in Europe.
When our government stops this
fraudulent trade American butter and
cheese will sell again in the markets
of the world at prices as high as sim
liar articles from other countries.
This dishonest practice on the part of
exporters not only disgraces the
United States, but it takes millions of
dollars annually out of the farmers
pockets by depreciating the value of
their products Phllade lphia Press.
