questioned his right TO thus sct,and
ordered VOLTS retention. The law
gives the Superintendent the right
to discharge employees, but not
officers. The Trustees alone deal
with officers. Wolf was what we
termed relief officer, and we dis
claimed the right of Superinten-
dent Barrett to discharge him.
"The matter was left to the At
torney. General, and he decided In
our favor. 1t took some time for
him TO give his decision, and in the
interim Wolf drew his salary,
though not at The institution. Su-
perintendent Barrett will verify
ny statement that we are on the
best of terms, and have had no
friction except in our establishing
the extent of the duties of the Su-
perrin tendent and of the board. In
the accusat ion that / permitted ID.
r. Roberts, employed as butcher at
the institution, TO sell us 81 900 feet
of lumber, i say that the steward
bought the lumber at the bargain
of 80 cents, ana that did not know
anything about the deal until the
bill came in, and that / knew that
it was good purchase, and signed
the bill, and would do it again if re-
quired.
II care not wheth er it is employe
or inmate of the institution, except
the Superintendent or steward, il
is perfectly lawful for them to sell
anything they may have and the
steward to buy If he so desires. AS
to Mr.. Roberts purchasing from
said Institution sheep or cattle for
his own private use and choosing
the best therefrom / say it is abso-
lutely and wholly false. / have
known the character of Mr. Rob-
erts for years, and l know that he
is not guilty of anything whatever
Of dishonest character.
"As to whether the investigation
would be made Mr.. White said that
he hoped it would be; that the
, character of the persons making
, the charges was sufficient to clear
, the accused; that the original kick
came from men of such caliber as
Harmount and Knisley because

Gratis and three Republicans, Mr.
White said that the courtesy was
, extended to the minority to name

Mr.. White said that Harmount

The Queens Lament

Madrid, June 3.-The Queen Re-
gent in a speech from the throne at the
opening of COrtez said:
The pangs at my hearts are renewed
in considering the misfOrtunes OF my
country. 1t is more dignified to com
pose ourselves in quietness than to
complain anew. The Government in
ratifying the peace treaty acted accord
ing to the constitution. Although the
CarOlines, the Marianas, and the Pa
laos yet remain under the dominion
of Spain, the Government has made
arrangements for their cession to Ger
many.
Our relations with foreign powers
are friendly. The most urgent purpose
of the Government is to set In order
the public finances and settle the ac-
counts Of the war. We have to ask OF
the country painful sacrifices. A bill
will be submitted to you for reorgani-
zing the public debt and reforming the
present revenue by new sources of tax
alton in order to maintain the country s
solvency. The Government trusts that
the country will provide it.
BILLS will be introduced for the
reorganization of the army and navy
establishing obligatory service. We all
trust that the work will be successful
and that the co. operation of the peo-
pie, who have suffered so much, will
not be wanting.

Nothing 20 Be Done in the PHILIPPINES
Until October
The Washington Times says

The Washington Times says:
The President and his cabinet talk
ed nearly two hours Friday morning
about the military situation in the Phil
ippines and discussed the question Of
e.enforcements for General Otis The
result Of the conference was an authOri
tative announcement after the. meeting
that the question Of enlistinR additional
regiments will be held in allegiance for
some time, owing to the rainy season
in the Philippines.
1T is definitely stated now that there
shall be a practical suspension Of hos
tilties against the insurgents during
the rainy season, for the medical au-
thorities Of the army agree that the
campaign would be disastrous to the
American side if carried on during the
unhealthful period. Surgeon General
Sternberg has said that the result would
be more disastrous even than in Cuba,
for the reason that there is in the
Island Of luZOn or in the vicinity no
high ground to which soldiers suffering
from disease may be withdrawn for re-
cuperation.
1.-The officials Of the War Department
believe that Aguinaldo has no intention
Of surrendering rs long as the rainy
season lasts, for he apprt ciates the dis
advantage under which the Americans
are laboring. Secretary Alger said. af-
ter the meeting Of the cabinet. that no
regiments would be enlisted for some
time, if at all, under the provision of
the army law, which allows the mus
tering Of IS 600 men for service until
1901.
Secretary Alger has left Washing
ton for two or three weeks. and GER
tainly no steps for increasing the mill

Southern Republicans Protest Against En-

1t is stated that Southern Republi-
cans are flooding the White House with
protests against dividing the census ap-
pOintments with the Democrats. and
claiming that this means that the CEN
sus will not be fairly or squarely taken.
The matter is brought to light by the
speech of Representative Bailey in
Texas Thursday, criticing Director Mer-
riam because he had placed in the hands
OF Senators from Texas the selection Of
such appointees as are to be allowed the
Democrats.
Director Merriam confers frequently
with the President, and it is supposed
that there is complete understanding
as to the distribution Of the places
among the parties Section IS of the
act says that appointments shall be
made without reference to their party
affiliations, and solely with reference to
the fitness of the persons
