MURPHY'S COMPLAINT

PHILIPPINE commission
The Members Hard at Work on Their
Report

Washington, October 2S.-The. state de-
partment has secured rooms at the Arling
ton hotel for the use of the Philippine
commission, being unable to find accommo-
dation in the already overcrowded depart
ment building. Colonel DENLY and Profess
sor Worcester are spending much time in
consultation with leading officials of the
administration. Although the plans for
the approaching sessions of the commits
sions have not yet been fully outlined, the
indications are that the earnest efforts of
the body will be devoted TO the preparation
of short, concise preliminary report
which will lbe submitted in season to serve
as a basis for such congressional legisla-
ton as may be necessary at the approach
ing session
1t is presumed that this will set out brief
1y the origin of the breach between Aguin-
aldo and the American forces, fixing the
responsibility thereof with all the weight
that should attach to the conclusion of a
that the attempt will be made in the pre-
Tmninary report to plan a detailed system
of government for the Philippines, but this
will be allowed ito go until the insurrection
has been quelled All of this forecasts a
return of the commission to the Philippines
even before the expiration of the present
dry season, If the result of the present mil
itary operations warrants it and a circum-
stance tends to corroborate this belief Is
the fact that the commission has left be-

MEXICANS CAPTURE
20 YAQUI INDIANS
Will be Imprisoned Pending Set

INACTIVITY OF SOLDIERS
Aborigines Have on Several Occasions
Left Their Mountain Retreats and
Attempted to Force Engage

INACTIVITY OF SOLDIERS

Austin, Tex, october 2S.-Information
was received here today from Ortiz, state of
Sonora, Mexico, stating that detachment
of Mexican troops had arrived there having
in charge twenty-five Yaqui Indian prison.
ers whom they were taking to Guayamas
to be placed in prison pending a settlement
of the war. Hitherto the Mexican forces
have been giving out the information that
they were taking prisoners nor would
they take any, as they proposed to kill all
the Indians as fast they came upon
them. The fact that they brought in twen-
ty-five today, however, evidences the fact
that they intend to take prisoners.
1t is reported that these prisoners were
captured in skirmish with the Indians
near Sahuaripa Mexico, during which sew
eral Mexican soldiers were wounded. 1t is
also reported that two were killed and one
or two taken prisoners by the Indians. Im-
mediately following this skirmish, which
was somewhat in the nature of a surprise
party to the Indians, the main body of In
dians retreated to the mountains northwest
of Sahuaripa and are now hiding in the
mountain fastness.
Judging from present indications there
will be no fighting for some time, as this
skirmish has driven the Indians back in the
mountains, and In addition to the number of
warriors captured, it is reported that fully
as many more Indians were killed, which
has served to rather demoraliZe them for
the time being The fact that they Jared so
badly upon this occasion is probably due to
the fact that they have become so embold-
ened of late by the apparent inactivity Of
the Mexican troops that they have left their
mountain retreats upon several occasions
and voluntarily attempted to force the
Mexican troops into an engagement

Frenchmam being allowed to use his feet,
in accordance with the Frendh custom.
The seats sold as high as $40 each.

PECULIAR PRIZE FIGHT IN
PARIS UNDER FRENCH RULES

The Enghshmen who witnessed the fight
declare that it was most grotesquely unfair
from beginning to end. The umpires were
both Frenchmen, and one of them actually
was Charlemont's father The match was
supposed to be under the Queensberry rules,
but Kicking in the groin was barred. The
ring was five and half yards square. The
contest consisted of two minute rounds,
with intervals of one minute and ten Sec
onds.
Charlemont was heavy and fat. Driscoli
was light and sinewy. Charlemont wore
walking shoes and five ounce gloves were
used. The Frenchman was no match for
