YESTERDAYS WEATHER.

Chicago, February 9.-This city is in
the grip of the coolest weather since
1872. The thermometer began to fall
steadily at midnight and by six o'clock
registered % below at the weather bu-
reau. Many thermometers throughout
the city, however, showed the mercury
down to % and %, and out in the fash
ionable western suburbs like Lagrange,
it is claimed 80 below was reached.
About twenty people were so severely
frost-bitten during the early morning
hours that they had to be removed to
police stations and hospitals. The fact
that there is no snow on the ground
causes the frost to penetrate to the wa
ter mains and several portions of the
city are suffering from lack Of water
supply.
Huron, N. D.. February 9.-Thirty-
six below zero was the coolest place
in the United States to-day. Bismarck,
n D., Duluth. Mimi, and Lacrosse,
Wis, reported 80 below zero. The cold
wave shows increased intensity in the
central portions of the country. The
line of zero temperature passes from
Chesapeake bay westward over Tennes-
see, Arkansas and Oklahoma. Freez-
ing temperature to-day is reported as
far south as Central Florida. The in
dications are that the extreme cold will
moderate somewhat Friday.

In the News From the Philippines Yester-
day-Dewey and Otis Both Heard From
Briefly.
WASHINGTON, February 9.-AlI that
General Otis had to report to the War
Department to-day related to the casual-
ties that have occurred 50 far among the
American troops as the result OF the ae-
tons since Saturday night, Matters In
Luzon are now in a state of temporary
quiet apparently. and one Of the officials
who knows as well as any what is going
on. said this afternoon that he did NOT
expect to hear Of important developments
sin the Philippines for the next four or
five days.
Secretary Alger repeated his statement
made yesterday to the effect that he had
sent no instructions to Gen. Otis, and IN
answer to an inquiry as 20 the projected
movement towards a landing at IlOu,
added that II Gen. Miller had been ordered
to make a landing the order must have
been given by Gem Otis, for II had not
gone from the War Department, The i'm
preston prevails however. that this
movement is already under way and II
would not be surprising to hear within
the next two days that It had been ex-
ecuted
Admiral Dewey was heard from this
morning to the effect that he had found
IL necessary to clear out all armed inslr-
gents at little village which commanded
the land approaches to his naval station

Unpleasant Experience of Mrs. Thomas
Hancock. in Mexico.
Special to the Register.
Marietta Ohio, February 9-Mrs.
Thomas Hancock arrived here last
night with the body of her husband,
who died at Guadaljara, Mexico, Janu-
airy 81.
She had a most exciting experience
with the Mexican laws, which make it
practically impossible to get the body
of a deceased person out of the country
without the expenditure Of a small for
tune.
The remains of Mr.. Hancock were
placed in a Theoretically sealed casket,
packed in excelsior in an ordinary large
goods box without marks of any kind.
A permit for removal was obtained
from the governor of the province, the
body was loaded ON a train with the
connivance of an American employee
and the death certificate and permits
were then mailed to Mrs. Hancock s
address on the United States border to
keep them out of the hands of Mexican
officials. The body was in this manner
successfully smuggled out of the coun-
try by the plucky young wife, who her
self was seriously i'll, but would not re-
linquish her determination to bring her
husband home for burial.

Congressman Dayton $ bill authorizing the
construction of a bridge over the Monon-

This bill authorizes a structure, not OBJ

Captain Dovener's bill relating to the
Wheeling postoffice, which was only in
troduced and referred on Tuesday last
and rather late in the day. stands small

gress. The same is true of all public
building bills not yet acted upon. includ-
ing that for a building at Blueield, which
has not yet passed the House, notwith-
standing the former reports to the con-
trary. Advocates of these bills hope to
secure another day in the House for their
consideration. but the strong probability
that most of them will go over TO the next
Congress.

Washington, February 9.-The war
investigating commission with the pre-
sentation of it's report to President Nc
Kinley this afternoon ceases its exist
ence
The report may be in the hands of
the President several days before given
official PRONUNCIATION to enable full con-
sideration of the document. 1t consists
of between sixty thousand and sixty
five thousands words. The general
scope of the report was sent out last
night and renewed attention was called
to-day to the fact then pointed out that
there were only two witnesses who
made charges against the government
in the beef isue. 1t is pointed out that
there were numerous allegations made
and many attacks in the public prints,
but that when those making the attacks
and charges were called on to appear
before the commission with their state
mentS under oath or otherwise sub
pear or furnish proof Of what they had
said. 1t is insisted that all the men
who had made any charges were offered
the fullest opportunity to be heard and
their statements given full considera-
ton and that every effort had been
made to probe the truth in whatever
matters had come up before that body.
The Eagan incident is passed over
without material mention, if at ALL in
view of Gen. Eagan's revision of the
statement that he originally made to
them. The report avoids all question
of the strategy of the war, that being
a matter regarded as outside the func-
tons Of the commission. The refer
ences to Gen. Miles commanding the
army are devoted mainly to structures
on his course with reference to the
beef issue as covered in his testimony.
In this connection a main point made,
it is understood, is as to Gen. Miles
failure to take prompt action in report
ing on the beef instead of waiting a
long period before communicating the
facts to the department and meantime
with the information he gave in his
possession and his judgment on the
beef supplies made up, permitting beef
he so vigorously condemned to be is
sued to the army. The fact that he
was the only witness failing to testify
upon oath is referred to.
