ment officials feel that something must
be done but they cannot agree what
the action shall be.
To remove Otis would be to discredlt
the entire campaign in the Philip
pines. It would be an admission that
all the sacrifices of the past months
had been in vain. To expel the cor
respondents would be to endorse Rus
sian censorship. That would be haz-
ardous. Several officials close to the
president have made heated declara-
tions to the effect that the correspond
ents should be expelled. One of the
leading army officers is quoted as say
ing that they should be shot.
The general impression, in the ab-
sence OF the information, is that way
will be found to set Otis aside, prob
ably by appointing him civil governor
of the archipelago.
Miles or Merritt, most likely the
latter, il Is believed, will be sent to
command, the explanation being given
that the increased forces of troops
render an officer in command OF high
er rank than Otis desirable.

and wife in camp who had their re-
gular quarrels; that he divorced them
some three or four times, but they
would not stay divorced and are now
again living together. Two miners
were working in mine-an American
and Mexican. The American brought
bis coat into the mine and hung same
up with $1,000 in the pocket. They
were working the night shift. The
American went off to q distant part of
the mine and the Mexican
thought he would see what was in the
coat pockets. So he pulled out the
pocketbook and left the mine, aud
when it came day light stopped to see
what he had got and found the $1,000.
In the morning the owner came out and
found his money gone; he offered $500
reward. and in two or three hours the
party was brought back with money
intact. Then the question arose, what
should be done with the thief:
They concluded that no one could
spend time to take him to the county
seat or go as Witnesses. So they gave
him time aud notice to leave camp.
He left camp and came directly to this
county, met woman, and because she
woald not leave her usband for him

victed and hanged the same fall here

ENTIRE CHANGE
In the Atmosphere of the Mar De-

WASHINGTON, July, 18.-lt took a
quiet hint from the white house to put
an end to the boycott on Gen Miles by
thewar depart rtment tunderstrappers,w who
were supposed to be acting under d.
rections from Secretary Alger.
Before his departure Saturday the
embargo was in full force and the
general was studiously ignored by men
who were his subalterns in the civil
war when he commanded an army.
The scandal of Saturdays proceed
ings was so great that it reached the
president and accordingly with was
sent quietly from the white house that
Miles, as acting secretary of war, was at
the head of the department and must
be treated as such.
The result was an entire charge ot
atmosphere.
