Gen. Lawton, in command of the reg
ulars at Manila, and who knowe more
about Fighting "sullcn people" than any
officer in the army. has given out an au-
thorlzpd statement that it will require
100000 soldiers to snbdue the Filipinos.
After cutting wide swath through the
heart OF the rebels country and captur-
ing several important strongholds, he
was ordered to return to Manila bv Gen.
Otis. and IN so dong obliged to evacnate
the towns captured, not having sufficient
force to garrison them. Reliable re-
ports from Manila state that Lawton is
not in accord with Otis style of cam
paign and the general opinion is that
LaWton is right.

The most important cases before the
United States court at Sioux Falls were
the trials of two Pine Ridge agency In.
dians for murder, that OF Good Shot for
the murder of his wife. and that of Bad
Elk for the murder of an Indian police
man sent to arrest him. The trial of
Good Shot lasted two weeks and the case
was as stubbornly contested as if he was
the biggest man in the land and with
unlimited wealth at his command. S.H.
Wright. of this county. defended the
Indian and succeeded in saving his neck,
which was more than was expected.
Judge Garland sentenced the Indian to
the pen for life. Bad Elk was found
guilty by the jury as charged in the in
dictment and will probably be hung.

Pleaded Guilty Before Judge Norrell
and Asked That Sentence Be Pro-

Pat O'Conner yesterday was SEN
fenced by Judge Norrell to eighteen
months Imprisonment in the state pris-
on the charge of housebreaking.
O'Conner appeared before the court
at 10 O'clock, and five minutes later
he walked out of the court room TO
commence his term. The defendant. as
soon as the information had been read.
pleaded guilty, waived time and asked
to be sentenced instanter. Accordingly.
OConner was accommodated in short
order and heaved an audible sigh of
relief when Judgment was announced.
Ever since the convicted man came
to Salt Lake two months ago he has
been in trouble. Patrick had not been
in the city two hours before he took
umbrage at a knot of Italians in
Frank Ambrose's saloon on State street
Patrick also took half a dozen paw
ing blocks and bombarded the WIN
dows of the aforesaid saloon.
After he had served twenty days for
his little eccentricity he once more fell
into the hands of the officers on the
charge of vagrancy. Another sojourn
in the city jail was the sequel. O'COn-
ner had not been liberated five hours
ere he was arrested in a wine room
in the Klondike saloon with a bundle
of stolen clothing in his possession.

All the Railroads In the Official

to Appear In Washington Dec 81
Change In Northwestern's Di-
rectory-Income Report of Roads.

I Washington, Dec. S.-The interstate
commerce commission today instituted
an investigation in the matter OF
changes in freight classification and
advances in. freight rates by carriers
using the official classification and
fixed the date of hearing for Dec. u,
at Washington.
All the principal railroads in the Off
ciaf classification territory are required
TO appear. Numerous complaints have
been filed with the commission alleging
that the carriers had determined to
put new classification in effect on the
list of January and to cancel numerous
commodity rates which have been in
effect for several years.
y, These complaints alleged that the
new classification and rates would sub
ject shippers and shipments in official
classification territory to unreasonable
charges, unjust discrimination and I'M
due prejudice and disadvantage. The
order of the commission states that it
appears from an advance copy of the
new classification that a very large
number of changes from a lower to a
higher class will be made and that ex-
listing differences in classification be-
tween carload and less than carload
quantities of freight will be thereby
considerably increased. 1e=

HIGH SCH0OL-ALL HALLOWS
A GOOD GAME SCHEDULED FOR
THIS AFTERNOON.
Elevens Have Heretofore Been Even

The High School and All Hallows
College will play a match game at 2:3O
O'Clock this afternoon at Walkers field,
ana il promises to be a close and inter-
esunS contest. The two elevens have
been the most evenly matched Of any
OF the local teams for the last three
years, and have always put up a good.
swift game of football. The High
School defeated the college three years
ago by a score of TO 0; the college re-
tallated the next year and made the
score to in their favor: last year the
High School came back at them and
defeated them in two games by close
scores. BY the natural order of things
the college should win this year. but
the High School boys are going to do
all they can to prevent such an occur
renee.
Both elevens had good practice yes
terday afternoon. Work at All Hal
lows was light, but swift and clean
The practice consisted of signal work
only. AT the High School the regulars
and the scrubs lined up for half an
hour, and the work was productive OF
good results. The boys tackled raven
ously, and got into the play with a
vim and eagerness that showed they
are in almost perfect form. The rest
since the Thanksgiving game has put
them on their pins again, and they will
doubtless put up as good a game today
ashley have played this season. The
two teams viii line up as follows:
