H0N0RS TO DEAD HEROES.


Washington, April 4.-The president
yesterday issued the following execu

1t Is fitting that in behalf OF the nation, trib-
utes Of honor be paid to the memories Of the
noble men who lost their lives in their coun-

der each sailor parting from home ties and
putting behind him private interests in the
presence of the stern emergency Of unSOught
war with an alien foe, was an individual type
OF that devotion Of the citizen to the state
which makes our nation strong in unity and In
action
Those who died in another land left in many
homes the undying memories that attend the
heroic dead Of all ages 1t was fitting that
with the advent Of peace won by their sacri-
fee, their bodies should be gathered with ten.
der care and retored to home and kindred, This
has been done with the dead Of Cuba and Porto
Rico Those Of the Philippines still rest where
they FELL watched over by their surviving
comrades and crowned with the love OF CRATE

our shores have been delivered to their fam-
lies for private burial But for others OF the
brave officers and men who persisted there has
been reserved nterment In ground sacred to
the soldiers and sailors amid the tributes OF
military honor and national mourning they
have so well deserved

with % other men. were working in

While the men were timbering up
The sides OF the ditch several
tons OF loose earth caved in,
burying Bum and Minisch COM

with slight injuries. Rescuers began
work at once, the piteons appeals of
Neiberger for relief Fastening their
movements. bnt the narrowness OF the

the sides TO prevent further caving
made the work of rescue slow. The
firing man, desparing of being res

wor kmen to kill him and end his mis-

TROUBLE IN SAMOA.
President Mckinley Considering the
Selection Of a Commissioner.
The POINTS BEING NEGOTIATED.
The Selection Of King Oscar "A Arbitrator
Not Assented to OfRcially "A Chance
That the Method for Ssftia-
ment May Yet Fall

Washington, April 4.-The president
and Secretary Hay have been giving
consideration to the selection Of a rep
resentative of the United States gov.
eminent on the Samoan commission.
He will not be a member of either SEN
ate or house of representatives, &C.
cording to present lights. 1t is proba-
BILE that the effort will be to find some
person thoroughly familiar with the
issues likely to be presen ted in the
settlement Of this Samoan dispute.
In the absence Of an acceptance by
Great Britain of the commission plan,
it has not been possible to proceed to
outline the instructions to be given
to that commission. 1t is said that
1T does not follow by any means that
because the commission Is appointed
it is to at once overthrow the treaty
OF Berlin, under the terms of which
the three governments have for ten
years administered the affairs in Sa.
moa. On the contrary, it is entirely
possible that the commission will be
able to adjust conditions at Apia and
elsewhere in the Samoan group to the
terms of that treaty, and it is con-
ceved here that all that is needed for
reforming conditions there and plac.
ing them on basis that will insure
tranquil and satisfactory administra-
tion OF affairs may be secured through
the adoption of some additional arti-
Giles to the Berlin convention, not even
affecting the general principle of the
tripartite control.
Many cable dispatches have been
passing between Washington and
London in regard to the Samoan set
Element. The main point is on de-
termining exactly the extent of au-
thority which the high commission is
to possess Lord Salisbury desiring
all uncertain points first cleared up
and an exact definition Of what the
Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1899-04-06

commission is 10 40 oeTore committing
Great Britain. The British govern
ment is as ready as the United States
or Germany to accept the general
principle Of commissioners, but it
wants to know in advance as to the
power of the commission. The indica-
tions are that the British authorities
will give their adherence to the agree
ment within day or two, but it is
stated that there is still a chance, al
though a very slight one, that the
agreement may not be concluded.
The present negotiations are concen-
trated on three main points, viz: First,
is the commission to report or is it to
have executive authority to administer
as we'll as to negotiate, and, If so, what
is the extent of its executive power;
second. will the action Of the commits
sion be determined by a majority, or
will unanimous action be required:
third. If majority determination Is
arranged, what safeguards are to be
provided to insure unanimous execu-
ton. This last point--as between ma
jority or unanimous action--is a vex-
ing one and is the same one which has
arisen as between the consular officials
in Samoa and it is evident that Lord
Salisbury hesitates to assent to any
agreement which may renew this con-
troversy. An agreement upon King
Oscar as final arbitrator would obviate
deadlock, but this, while proposed
unofficially, during the recent discus
sions, has not been assented to official
ly, SO that attention is still centered on
the issue between majority or unani-
nous rule.
