TO HUNT THE DEsPERADoEs.
Armed Posse Starts for the "HoIe In

A clspatch from Casper, Wyo.. yesterday V

refuge for outlaws. promises to be cleansed
OF Its desperate inhabitants. The daring

Union Pacific express at Rock Creek re-

the fact that they were closely pursued

atically hunted to their deaths To this
purpose the several railroad managers with
interests in this state are organizing posses
and the outlaws will be given no rest. 1t
is expected 200 men will be engaged in the
big man hunt.
The state and the express and railroad
companies have offered an aggregate of
S',GJo each for the heads of the members of
the band. In addition to this head money
In the event of success the men who are ar
ranging for this chase will be armed and
fed by the corporations and big cattle COM
penles or this section during the time they
are engaged.
Thus they are enabled to enlist a typicaI
band of rough riders, and every man of
them dead shot. Many of them are cow
boys, others are old frontiersmen, who have
fought Indians in the same territory over
which they will now pursue the bandits. and
still others are the trained detectives of the
big corporations. The various bands of
Hah-hunters Will be accompanied by Indian
trailers, bloodhounds and pack trains The
men are all to be sworn in as deputy sher-
IFS and will be in charge of the officers of
the several counties in northwestern Wy

A gorge so narrow that two horses can
not walk abreast is the only gateway into

obscure routes that eventually enable one
to reach the rendezvous of the outlaws but
they are known to but few trailers and In

The six road agents who looted the Union
Pacific express box will not oppose this
small army of the allies alone. 1t is esti-
mated that at least fifty men, on whose
heads there are prices set, and who are
wanted in many states, are to be found
hiding there. Some of them are following
the peaceful pursuits of farmers and ranch
ers, and only seek to hide their Identity.
Many of these men are convicted criminals,
and some of them are under sentence of
death. 1t is commonly stated that Bob

- AILs-PHILIPPINE POLICY.
William Lloyd Garrison Calls This an
Assassin Nation.

+ AT the fortyseventh annual meeting of
the Progressive Friends, at Kennett Square
in Philadelphia, Saturday, William Lloyd
Garrison bitterly attacked the American
policy in the Philippines. His address was
on imperialism and Betrayal of Democ-
racy.' Mr. Garrison said in part:
"A government founded on the principles
of the right of the people to choose their
rulers is engaged in the effort to deprive a
distant and alien nation of the same right.
With opulent professions of love of liberty
1t declares that the only possible terms
with the FiIipinos is absolute subjection
To this end it is taking the same attitude
and using the same excuses that might has
always employed in contest with right
After quoting Abraham Lincoln as saying:
mo man is good enough to govern another
man without the others consent; but when
he governs himself and also governs an
other, that is more that self-government-
that is despotism,' Mr.. Garrison continued:
From Aguinaldo the enlightened and
heroic leader of the Filipinos, comes this
responsive utterance, written at Cavite
June 1S, 1898, at the headquarters of Ad-
miral Dewey: L proclaim in the face Of the
whole world that the aspirations of my
whoe life, and the final object of all my
desires and efforts is no other thing than
your independence, as independence means
ror US the redemption from slavery and
tyranny. the reconquest of our lost liner-
ties. and our entry into the concert of the
civilized nations
Little could he have dreamed when he
penned these inspiring words that the coun-
trymen of Abraham Lincoln were to outdo
In savasery the vanishing Spaniards and
to make the name of America even more
accursed by his hunted and butchered COM
patriots
ITO Aguinaldo, fighting in the same cause
for which John Brown died, sustained by
the same hopes and aspirations, our sym
pathies are due as were the sympathies Of
all lovers of liberty, to John Brown"
The speaker, in concluding. said: IF we
are to keep the Philippines, the promised
independence of Cuba will be a case of
hope deferred. The system of imperialism
Will be fastened upon the country and the
government must adjust itself thereto Like
Spain, We are to send the youth of the
country to learn lessons of murder and
barbarism To gather and disseminate the
vices and diseases inseparable from laiIi-
tary life, to hep fill the graveyards of the
tropics
I'VE are a great assassin nation ana the
slaughter of patriots stains our hands
Helpless, as in nightmare, we cry out in
agony, and Christian ears are deaf"

OPPOSED TO ARBITRATION
German Delegate to Hague Explains the
Kaisers Position.
Principle as Proposed Incompatible
With the Idea of Divine
Right of Kings.

LONDON, June 12.-The correspondent of
the Daily News at The Hague says:
Il learn that DR.. Zorn, the German dele
gate spoke on Friday against arbitration.
When asked him for a copy of his speech
got point blank refusal, DR.. Zorn say
ing: All can tell You is that Fridays sit
ting was extremely Interesting. and that /
presented Germany's objections to the
scheme for a permanent arbitration tri-
bunal.'
Notwithstanding this I am able to send
full analysis Of his speech. He spoke
slowly and with difficulty in French. He
asserted that he was instructed to say that
Germany could not accept the principle of
permanent arbitration embodied in Sir Ju-
liam Pauncefotes draft. She objected, first,
on principle, and secondly, on grounds of
expeGiency.
He then proceeded to argue that it was
derogatory to a monarch's sovereignty and
to nations independence. Arbitration
agreed upon between two nations for d
rowly defined object was one thing and ar
bitration binding nation for the unknow-
able future was quite another. king,
holding his title by divine right could not
think of divestng himself OF an essential
part CT his sovereignty, the right to shape
the nations course at a critical time.
Emperor William, DR.. Zorn said, would
not pledge himself to bow to the decisions
VI JuuBes not appointed Dy MIN on cases
that had not yet arisen. There were the OBJ
Jections of principle. The objections of
pediancy were on the score of expense and
the possibility that the tribunal. under the
rendering of iniquitous decisions might
bring the principle of arbitration into dis
credit.
DIR. Zorn concluded his speech amid pain
full silence.
Sir Julian Pauncefote replying said he
thought the objections of the German dele
gate showed view of statecraft which
many might consider not altogether mod
ern. AS to the doubts expressed regard
Ing the fiji ess of the judges, l have no
doubt, said Sir Julian. that every state
would take pride in nominating its best
men,
were sent under a miSapprehension. as some
of his objections would only apply to the
older schemes superseded by the British
draft
The correspondent of the Morning Post
at The Hague asserts that at last Fridays
meeting DR.. Zorn opposed the arbitra ton
scheme, but adds that negotiations are pro-
cesd'ng between The Hague and Berlin.
The correspondent of the Times at The
Hague says:
There is sufficient reason so far as
l can ascertain. to anticipate the failure
of the arbitration scheme. Germany's OBJ
jectlons may possibly have been intimated
to certain members of the conference, but
even in that case it would be premature to
take ressimistic view. If difficulties have
arisen, they may yet be smoothed over.
Even SO formidable power as Germany
may well pause before assuming the terri
BILE responsibility of bringing about the fail
ure of the conference"

BLOW HORNS FOR CATERPILLARS.
Novel Means of Destroying Pests in
New Hampshire.

The New York Herald says: Up in the
Catskiu mountains, why're the caterpillars
have been very destructive to maple and
apple trees, a novel and effective way to
fight the pests has been discovered.
A woman blowing horn under a maple
tree was surprised to see the caterplllars
fall to the ground by the hundreds and con-
tinue to DO so at each succeeding blast
She told her story and the noise cure was
Immediately adopted by her na.ghbors.
Horns and drums and conch shells were
brought into play. Caterpillars by the
bushel dropped to the earth and were gath
cred up and destroyed
Coneh shells seem most effective though a
well-beaten bass drum does good work AL
though rather late, the caterpiliars having
almost eaten the foliage from the trees Il is
believed that many orchards threatened
with destruction may yet be saved

The great lawyer was trying a great
murder case. The defendants nearest
friend, a man Of much practical sense,
though little book learning, sat behind
the eminent attorney. The work ofse-
curing thejury was in progress and the
State had accepted and rendered to the
defense a certain gray-haired man.
The defendants friend leaned over
to the lawyer and whispered:
Take that man, quick"
The lawyer turned around with n
grave and solemn air and said to his
adviser in pOmpOus manner:
'YOu should be more careful in CIV
ing me advice. This is a grave matter.
Nov, don't think that man will do.

Cleaning the cellar before the winter
vegetables and fruit are placed therein
Is most important consideration The
work should be properly and thorough
ly done before cold weather.
Wash the windows and woodwork
and whitewash the ceiling and walls.
A whitewash that is both E deodorizer
and purifier is prepared thus:
Pour sufficient boiling water over q
peck Of unsIaeked lime to cover il;
keep the vessel covered during the pro-
cess Of Stacking. When Stacked add q
pint Of salt and four ounces ofcopperas-
Pour enough water to mske the white
wash Of the consistency Of thick cream
Stir thoroughly. Apply with a white
wash brush or broom
One Of the requirements Of a health
ful cellar is freedom from dampness.
IL very damp an artificial drain should
be made. Slight dampness may be
overcome by keeping a pailful Of un-
Stacked lime IN the cellar and as soon
as il absorbs enough moisture to render
it fine like powder replace il with fresh
lime. Moisture is producer Of decay,
and decay is one of the greatest enc
mics to be guarded against in the cellar.
Cellars under kitchens and living
rooms are usually too warm for the per-
feet keeping of vegetables Topreyent
sprOuting and decaying of vegetables
the cellar must be cool; the temperature
should just be above the freezing point.
Do not close the cellar window in the
fall until there is danger of freezing.
Make frequent examinations Of all
the vegetables and remove at once any
that shows signs Of decay. Deeaying
matter will yitiate the atmosphere Of
the cellar, and il allowed to remain
will spread through the whole house
and cause sickness in the family. The
shelves and cupboards, ifthere are any,
should be washed with hot water every
week. II milk or anything gets spill
ed clean it up immediately.-What To

There was great rivalry between
these men, and one day they were hay
