an explanation, however. IS poweress
against the mo property" cry of his con-
stituents.
The British admiralty Is experiencing
the same difficulty as was encountered by
the United States navy department last
year in finding good machinists for ships
at smaller salaries than are paid by the
merchant steamship marine. The British
navy lacks 500 men of the number of these
artihcers required to man vessels. To
remedy this serious defect it is proposed
to divide the country into five marine
engineering recruit districts, or appoint
as admiralty agent a civilian engineer
in touch with shipping centers, and a sub
stantial salary, and so much for each
recruit. The system has just commenced
at Liverpool and Sunderland, with signs
of success.
HINT TO YOUNG OFFICERS.
The secretary of war, the Marquis of
Lansdowne, has issued a circular to the
general officers saying he has noticed that
a pernicious fashion exists among young
officers to shave the upper lip, and adding
that this is much to be regretted. The
result is that many unfertile lips are
being coerced. The regulation against
shaving the upper lip has been little OBJ
served OF recent years, and its revival
is unpopular.

LET. GILM0RE's PARTY.
EftipinOs Are Treating American
Prisoners Very HarshIy

WASHINGTON, Sept 16.-News con-
corning Lieut.. Gilmore and fourteen of
the enlisted men of the Yorktown who
We're captured by the Filipinos at Ealer
more than six months ago, has reached
Washington. in letters to military Off
GERS in the island. The latest informa ton
comes through a Spanish planter by the
name of Cara. who was imprisoned by
the insurrectionists and subsequently
made his escape. Cara described Lieut..
Gilmore and his companions to officers in
Manila. He said that that officer and
fourteen men were at Bigau, where they
were subslsting off d meager quantity of
rice, valued at not more than one peseta
per man per day. The allowance was
more liberal than that for Spanish pris-
others. every one of whom was allotted
one-half peseta per day. There were
fully 1000 of the latter at Btgau, Cara
says, and all prisoners, Spanish and
American, showed the effect of the con-
tinement and the poor and insufficient
food. He IS quoted as saying that the
captiYes could not stand such hardship
and such fare much longer
Cara also described the extent of the
force at Bagau, where fully 5000 Filipinos
are under arms. Some of the weapons
are Mausers with which the troops on
the line are being equipped steadily. The
source of supply evidently amazed Garza
as 1t has those in Manila. He said the
old weapons were being distributed to the
troops in the interior and that the arma-
ment of the infantry goes on to an alarm
ing extent. Cara also reports that Fill
pinos in some instances We're equipped
with the uniforms of Americans, includ-
ing the cork helmet. These articles evil
IDENTIFY came from the steamer Centennial,
which went on the reef on the northwest
ern coast of Luzon and was promptly
looted. Cara witnessed also the destruc-
ton of the Saturnus, of which he fur
nlshed a vivid account to the authorities.
Navy department officials say that steps
have already been taken to relieve Lieut..
Gilmore and his party.

CHICAGO MAY BE CUT OUT.
President Prepared to Avoid Labor
Trouble There.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 16.-President
Mckinley is planning his Western trip
in such a way as to be able to take
in Chicago or leave it out altogether,
as the case may be. He has reserved
Sunday Monday and Tuesday, Oct. s,
8 and TO- but can fill those dates without
disarranging his schedule. Admiral
Dewey will be presented his sword in
Washington Tuesday. Oct. 3, and that
night the president will give him state
dinner at the White house According
to present plans the president hopes to
leave Washington Oct. 4, and to arrive
at Peoria Thursday. Quincy Friday, and
Galesburg Saturday morning. He will
probably go by way of indianapolis and
Terre Haute.
If the labor troubles are adjusted the
president expects to reach Chicago sat
urday night, spend Sunday quietly and
be ready for the ceremonies to follow.
Then will come the trip to Milwaukee,
St. Paul. Minneapolis and probably
Aberdeen, S. D., to meet the returned
volunteers The president expects TO

FRENCH RAILWAY FARES.
You Are Not Sure of Getting What
You Pay For.

New York Tribune.
All Americans who have reason to
travel along the Riviera and from there
up to Paris are especially impressed with
the shortcomings of foreign railroad man
agcment. For several winter months the
trains running from east and west to
Monte Carlo are so crowded that though
one has paid for his seat in a first-class
carriage, he has frequently to stand or sit
with ten or twelve in a compartment
with places for only eight. For short
journeys the prices are not unreasonable
if the company provided adequate &C
commoda lions, but when a long distance
is in question then the charges would
aprall Croesus.
Two women with their maids decided
to go from Mentone to Paris last spring
by the train de luxe, but found they could
secure only one small compartment for
two persons, and for this had to wait
week The price of each f1rst-class ticket
was $25, and for each berth a supplement
tary charge was made of $40, the one
nights journey from in the evening
until about II o'clock the next morning
costing for each person $42 40. The maids,
with eight trunks, four of which were
small ones, went by an earlier train, and
the charge for the extra baggage was
$3.50 The guard on the train de luxe,
after 1t had left Mentone, informed the
women that. though their tickets called
for a compartment for two, the car had
