Washington, Juno I9.--It is stated at
the navy department. that every man at
tached to the Olympia, Boston, Balti-
more, Concord, Raleigh, Petrol and Nc
Culioch during the battle in Manila har-
bor, regardless of rank or station, will
receive a medal of honor. The MnGul-
loch, which was q revenue cutter at the
outbreak OF the Spanish war, was trans
ferred to the naval service and added to
Admiral Dewey's heeG She rendered
efficient service in the naval battle at
Manila and also carried the first Official
news of Admiral Dewey's victory to
Hong Kong. In view of these facts, Ii
was deemed proper that the officers and
men Of the McCulloch should share equal
ly with the others in the distribution of
the Congressional medals notwithstand-
Ing the McCulloch has resumed her duties
In the revenue servics. Two civilians
who were on the MoCullooh during the
battle and who rendered efficient service,
In serving the guns, have also bsen in

EAT THEIR COMPANION.

Cirolo City, Alaska, May 29-(via San
Francisco, June 10. "A story Of possible
cannibalism and death on the Youkon
trail ehas just reached here. Three men
who left dahl river on December for
Unknown, were snot heard of again and
they we're ssupposed to have been lost.
Nothing was heard of them until
the steamer Rideout, which arrived to-
daHs brought a terrible tale of suffering
and horror. The men were Michael
Daley, Victor Edlar and NJ. Provost.
They were from Providence, r. l., Woon-
socket. r. l., and Brockton, Mass, re-
spectively. Their bodies were discovered
IL miles from the mouth of Old Mans
creek, they havi ng lost the trail and be.
COME bewildered. Having left Dahl river
with only three weeks food, but which
was amplyssufficient for the $50 miles to
JiMtown, they were soon reduosd to star
vation. Days body was found part ly
eaten, on the stove in the tent just as II
was left when death overlook the others.
Some scraps Of moosehide and moccasin
were found oz which they were endeav-
oring to make q stew. Daay's body was
identified by the clothes. The other two
men were found dead i've miles away
from the tent. The fact of the tent flaps
being shut down whsn found, would
seem to rpreclude the possibility of Daily Is
body having been eaten by animals. The
other men doubtless were driven by
hunger to the awful extremity OF canni.

II the reader took the time and trouble
TO ask his fellow rsssdenss Of Portland
the simple question given below, he
would obtain the one answer. II he would
read the statements now being published
in Portland. which refer to this answer,
1t would surprise him to note that they
number SO many. AS many more could
be. and may be, published, but In the
meantime ask Che first person you meet
what cures backachef 1he answer will
be, Doan's Kidney pills. Here is a citizen
who endorses our claims
Mrs. Jennie A. Virgins. of 0 Portland
ST., says: "a friend OF mine who used
Deans Kidney Pulls over two years ago,
says that they are remedy which, II
universally known, backaohe and Other
troubles arising from kidney complaint
would cesse to exist. My friend and !
were so greatly impressed with the merits
of Doans Kidney pills that we procured
a box recently at H. Ii. Hay s. Sons

WILL MAKE FURTHER ENQUIRIES.

Washington, June I9.-It is improbable
that the war department Will accept as
final, the decision of the Pennsylvania
estate court declaring that the army can
Eteen-is subject to state taxation. The
I Meade. appealed to the war department
4 for assistance in defending the case and
the department transmitted his applica-
ton to the department of justice, with
the report that an officer of thatI-depart-
Inent be assigned for that purpose. 1t Is
believed the decision was rendered before
the defense could be prepared. The
principle Involved is regarded as import
sant, and 1t is significant that the Penn
.sylvaRia decision is directly in con fiict
with the formal.opinion of the court OF
claims in the case involving the cantsen.
That court decided that the canteen was
lone Of the instrumentalities of the gov.
erDment." and, therefore exempt from
taxation.
