CINCINNATI, July 14.-Bishop J. NJ.
Thoburn of the Methodist Episcopal
church, who has spent about 40 years as
4 missionary mostly in India, is here
with his family. some of whom are in
ill-health. The bishop spent sometime
i'll Manila, in March last, and was an
intelligent observer of events. He says
there is no doubt that the outbreak be-
tween the Americans and FiGplnos was
intended by Filipino leaders to include
general massacre III the city of Manila.
He cited i'll proof of this the testi-
mony of two Filipino servants, who
were summoned TO service in the army
by Aguinaldo and VINO dared not dis
Oh, bus VINO warned their American
employers to keep within doors that
night, as orders had been given to kill
all Europeans found on the streets.
Another evidence was the finding OF
5000 new knives stored in Catholic
church. Only the splendid discipline
of the American troops prevented the
massacre in Manila.
The bishop was in London when the
thrilling news of Dewey's victory came.
1t was universally understood there, he
said, that it meant the permanent poses
sion of the Philippines by the United
States. Asked why Dewey did not
leave Manila after his victory, he said
the shortsightedness of the United
States government made it impossible.
Dewey had not coal enough to carry
him to the nearest American coaling
station, and he was bound 70 take
Manila in self-defense. The whole his
tory of the present Philippine situation
showed such natural and logical and
even inevitable course of events that
the United States is bound to assert its
authority there.
Anarchy and assassination, he de-
clared, would follow the withdrawal of
the United States forces. The only
other islands are peaceful. The bishop
thinks the proper policy of the United
States is to enlist the men of the other
islands, who are the natural enemies of
the Inhabitants of Luzon, to fight
Aguinaldo's army. Differed by Ameri-
cans they would quickly disperse of the
few men that Aguinaldo can muster.
Viewing the situation in the far east
from the standpoint of missionary CT
40 years in that part of the4worId, the
bishop was impressed with the fact that
it was the duty of the United States,
forced upon it by the circumstances of
the Spanish war, to hold the Philip
pines and to preserve order and extend
civilized government i'll that vast re-
gion. Moreover, i'll the interest of
morality and Christianity, he hoped for
the dissolution OF the Chinese empire,
which he characterized as the most
helpless government on the face of the
earth. Russia, England and the United
States each should take certain terri
tory.

CHANDLER AGGRAVATING.
Him Out of the Window if He
Had Continual.

CONCORD, n. H., July 1.-THE civil
service commission Investigation into
the charges against Senator Gallnger
is over, as far as the city of Concord is
concerned. Commissioner Mark S.
Brewer gave monologue to the men,
bers of the press who had reported the
proceedings OF the investigation. He
replied to charges made against him by
Senator Chandler and Governor Busiel
through the press. Senator Chandler
was invited to be present by Mr..
Brewer, but declined.
Mr.. Brewer stated to the newspaper
men that when the first letter came
from Governor Busiel making the
charges against Senator Gallinger he
Was absent from Washington. Had l
been present my first suggestion would
have been that Governor Buslel should
put the charges in form and present
them to the district attorney for the
state of New Hampshire. Inasmuch
as they seemed to indicate a violation
OF the statute and not of the commits
sion rules. the district attorney could
have brought them before the grand
Jury of federal court and compelled
the attendance of witnesses which this
commission could not do.
He denied he tried to shield anybody.
In relation to the statement i'll the
course of the Investigation that he had
himself contributed to the campaign
fund, Mr.. Brewer stated that he had
never contributed one dollar i'll viola
zion of any statute.
With reference to the fact that he no.
titled Witness that they were not obliged
to answer certain questions, Mr.. Brewer
said he did only what any Judge Ill any
court III the land would be expected to
do, that is, inform witnesses as to their
legal rights.
Commissioner Brewer quoted Senator
Chandler's remarks that the other in
yestigators, Commissioner Harlow and
Agent Wales, were good fellows, and
EXPLAINED, 81 did nothing here, except
get mad, that has not met the approval
of these two good fellows; and L take
the responsibility for getting mad. If
Senator Chandler had continued those
inslnuations would have flung him out
OF the window. No man with parti.
cie OF seh-respect could sit still and
permit such allegations TO be made by
a gentleman of his position"
As to Senator Chandler's movements
for his removal. Mr.. Brewer said in
part
"Bless his dear heart he knows moth
ing about my relations with the presi-
dent and no more about the civil service
commission than does the man in the
moon. l am not filling the position at
my own request and through my own
seeking, but simply and solely because
William Mckinley sent for me and
urged me to take it. If President Nc
Kinley should decide to take the advice
of Senator Chandler and Governor
Busiel and remove me from the chair I
have occupied for the past Is months, it
would be almost as pleasant to me as to
Senator Chandler.
Senator Chandler, when seen later,
said that his position is not at all
changed by Mr.. Brewers statement.
He will prefer charges against Commits
sloner Brewer, not on account of any
personal discourtesy, but on account of
the general misconduct of the hearing
by the commission.

GooDLANDs, L. T., July 14.-William
Goings, "Walla Tonk, >" the Choctaw
Indian, was shot at Alikchi, l. T.,
under sentence of the Choctaw court,
for murder.
Application was made to Federal
judge John r. Thomas for writ of
habeas corpus. An order by Judge
Thomas granting the writ was tele-
graphed from Tulsa, l. 7. District At
torney Clay and Sheriff Thomas Wat
son were in consultation when 1t was
presented.
The sheriff refused to receive 1t. The
district attorney declared that Judge
Abner James, the Choctaw judge, alone
could stop the execution.
A runner was dispatched to Judge
James, notifying him of the telegram
from Judge Thomas. He sent verbal
message to go ahead with the execution.
1t occurred few hours later. A few
minutes before Goings was. led out four
Choctaws appeared bearing coffin. 1t
was deposited in front of the court
house. Near it quilt was spread. The
condemned Indian, supported by Sher-
iff Watson and a deputy and escorted
by 20 light horsemen, marched down
the line of spectators.
Goings then knelt on the quilt blind
folded. The sheriff barred his bosom,
painted a spot over his heart, stepped
back four PAGES, rested rifle across a
bench and fired. The bullet entered
the breast but missed the spot. Goings
fell backward and moaned for about an
hour before expiring. Water was
poured down his throat number of
times to hasten death by strangulation.
1t remains TO be seen what action the
United States government will take for
defiance of the writ.
Goings' crime was the murder of his
uncle, Mason Goings, in December.
1896. He was sentenced to be shot
Aug. 20, 1897, and the court granted
respite that Goings might play baseball
with the nine of the Choctaw patton
during 1898.
There has been custom in the Choc-
taw tribe for years as follows: When
an Indian is convicted of murder he is
set free after the judge has fixed the day
when he shall be shot. No bond is re-
quired. The Indian gives his word that
he will appear to be shot.
He went to Cuba when the war was
declared and settled in the interior,
taking up with Cuban soldiers. Lately
he proposed to and married pretty
Cuban senorita and settled down. Sew
eral months ago Judge Clayton refused
further clemency and remanded his
case back to the Indian courts. The
execution day was set and Goings was
informed by letter. Then he bade his
wife goodby. and started toward the
Choctaw nation. He did not tell his
wife Why he left her when he came
away.

ranks prescribed by tactics had been
increased in order that the belt plates
of the men in the rear should not cut
| holes in the summer uniforms of the
men in front.
1t was determined to start crusade
against, fat. and it was decided that the
first thing to do was to find the cause
of police obesity and then hunt around
for the remedy. 1t is reported that
when the subject was broached at a
meeting of the police board Commits
sioners Hess and Sexton at first gaZed
at Chief Devery reproachfully and
finally smiled with an air of indulgence
at the suggestions made by Commits
sioners York and Abel. At last Chief
Deyery evolved theory that suited
him and decided officially to direct at
tention TO what was literally described
as a growing evil So in his annual re-
port he embodied this mild comment:
Experience has shown that the con-
ditions of life under which police live
III the station houses, with irregular
hours for sleep. meals, etc, has tend
eEcy to make many of them grow fat.
In the case of many policemen this
condition is a serious hindrance to the
proper performance of police service.
| The better the physical condition of
| the men the better service will they
render to the public. The athlete trains
| for the various feats in which he takes
part, and the best trained almost in
variably wins. The policeman is liable
to be called upon at a moments notice
for the performance of duty requiring
strength and agility, and his physical
condition should be such as to make
him always ready to cope with any
such conditions that might present
themselves.
with view to correcting this tend
ency to corpulency and to put the
members of the force in such condi-
ton that they could successfully ac-
complish what they might be called
upon to do, would suggest to your
honorable board the consideration of
some system of physical training for
the force which could be carried on at
regular intervals during reserve hours
in station houses and which could be
so arranged as not to interfere with
the work OF rest of the men,"
This body blow, so to speak, filled the
fat fellows with fear. Comfortable old
belts that had been draped in the curve
of beauty around their owners were
yanked over so many holes that the
stitching gave. There were melancholy
attempts on the part of the owners to
assume a gazelle-like grace land spright-
iy mien. The slim policemen had what
they called fun, even posting such no.
