r. The house passed the military acad-
envy appropriation bill, carrying about
100000. 1t served as a text for a
speech by Mr.. Griggs of Georgia on
the presidents suggestion that the
government care for the graves of the
Confederate dead. He referred to the
devotion Of Southern men to the coun-
try from the days Of Appomattox to
those Of Santiago. Let there be an end
to- the constant reiteration, he urged,
Of reconciliation between the sections.
That reconciliation had long ago been
accomplished, and with the new gen
Grafton of the South, the younger men,
there was no need OF reconciliation as
there had been no separation. 1--WE ac-
cept the words Of the president in good
faith,'' said Mr.. Griggs, ''but we insist
that this shall be the last reconclia-
lions OF the sections Let this be the
final ratification Of the treaty Of peace

SPANISH PRISONERS.
Duke of Arcos Urges His Government to
 Bestir Itself.

Washington, June 12.-I'he Madrid dis patch regarding the advices of the Spanish minister here to his government brings out the substance of a short interview which the Duke of Arcos had with Secretary Hay last Thursday. On this occasion the Duke of Arcos urged on this government the pressing desire of his government for the utmost expedition in the efforts to obtain the release of the Spanish prisoners still held by Aguinaldo. Of these there are probably in the neighborhood of 1000.
 All are military or religious prisoners, the proportion Of friars, however, being said to be small. All the civil prisoners have already obtained their liberty so far as known. The Spanish minister has as sured this government that our endeavors are appreciated by Spain, but that his gov ernment is constantly anxious that the most expeditions steps possible be pursued To this end renewed urgent instructions to the military authorities in the Philippines were proposed Secretary Hay gave assur- ance that every effort was being made to secure the liberation of the prisoners, but pointed out the obstacles in the path of the negotia tions.
 The Spanish government is disposed to go to the extreme limit In effecting the release of her citizens and stands ready to ransom, if need be. Whatever steps are taken by the government, 1t is thought necessarily must be largely through the officers of our government. What move may be contem- plated as to the taking of independent tion, with the permission from the United States authorities is not known here be- yond the likelihood that the commission which had to deal with the repatriation of the Spanish will be utilized to renew ne- gotiation with the Filipinos. Whatever Is done will be with the full cognizance as vel las through cooperation of the United States military authorities, whose instruc- tions show the purpose of this government to carry out its pledge in the peace treaty.

STRICTLY SECRET.
Efforts Made to Prevent News of Clay
 County Situation Getting Out

Cincinnati, O., June 12.-The Enquirer spe- cial from Manchester tI<y.) says:
 Every method is being resorted to to pre- vent news of the situation in Clay county getting out to the world Couriers have been searched and the identity of some correspondents is kept hidden. On Satur- day night the Enquirer messenger on his way to London was stopped a short dis tance out of Manchester by Sheriff White and searched. He had taken the precaution to pin the dispatches to the inside of his trousers leg and they were not found. MT. Whtmore, of London, on Sunday put up at Webbs livery stable in Manchester. The next morning the horse that Whitmore rode was found dead in the stable with his throat cut.
 The story that Sheriff White had been ar- rested is not true. Nobody here believes that the sheriff was the actual murderer. He was seen by several reliable witnesses some distance away from the place when the shot was fired. After conference be- tween Judges Everson and Cook court was adjourned today a matter of prudence in the present heated state of feeling. mat ter that influenced them Is the. fact that a White, a Howard or a Baker is con cerned in nearly every case that would come to trial. On the surface everything Is tranquil, but neutral citizens feel that the situation Is strained and dread an outbreak at any moment.

WOMEN AND PISTOLS.
Idea Advanced That the Fair Sex Should
 Shoot in Their Defense,

Atlanta, Ga, June 13.-An editorial in the last number of the Saturday Review, At lanta's leading society journal, has att tracted much attention and caused con- siderable comment It bears upon the race question and more particularly upon the arming of white women and says in part:
 "Ths is well and it should be, but un- fortunately the women who are in most need of this accomplishment are those who live in the remote country districts and, in many cases, too poor to buy firearms.
 Georgia club women,5 who are honest in their wish to help their less fortunate sisters, should petition the commissioners in each county to provide every country woman who has none, with pistol
 '"The petition should also embody request that body of rural police be organized in every county for the protection of the women and childred and to put an end to tine reign of terror in which they are liv- ing today."i
 It is certain that every member of the Atlanta federation, numbering 2,000 women would sign q petition of this kind, and there can be no doubt that they would be joined by the clubs of all parts of the state.

WILD DISORDER
Attended Attempt of Railroad Company to Move Its Cars

Cleveland O., June 12-The attempt of the big consolidated railroad company to move it's cars today was attended by scenes of wild disorder in various parts of the city, though nobody was hurt and very lit- tie damage was done to property. Cars were run on two lines at very irregular in- tervals, but without passengers and main ly under the protection of the police. The principal work of the mobs, which were composed largely of idlers and curious spec tators, was to blockade the tracks in which they were materially assisted by the ac- commodating drivers of trucks, cut trolley ropes and jeered at the non-union men,
 Occasionally stale eggs and pieces of mud were thrown, but nobody was hurt The strikers discouraged violence, but they did most effective work in inducing the non union men to quiet down and do no harm, as it worked directly to their interests
