ed to call upon the bondsman, MIR. 9. NJ.

produce the delinquent Skinner. The
amount of his bond is $1,000.

are also indicted as associates of the
Terrys. Goodrich and Skinner. The
ladies appeared, being the only ores who
we're not absent, in parts known or un.
known.

go to trial, and the Floral cases now seem
likely to 20 over to September. BY that
time Skinner may he found. There Is a
chance, however, that Skinner may be
found before September. The whole de-
t.ctiye force OF the government is search
ing for him. If he should tie found speed.

United States is hoisted in Manila. he
said, land 1t will stay there, and the
mountains will fall on the individual or
the party who obstructs it,
Mr.. Greene of Nebraska said that this
sort of talk was all buncombe. There was
not he declared, single man in the
chamber who condemned the United States
soldiers. nor a single man who really be-
lieved that there was a single man who so
condemned them. No one had ever ut
tered a word against the soldiers. Every
one knew that they must obey the Presf-
dents orders. 1t was the policy of the
President that the Democrats were rebuk-
ing. He would have planted the flag at
Manila, as President Mckinley should
have done, and cried at once Liberty
and independence" and not waited until
the Filipinos were driven to fight.
Mr.. Simpson, rising to question of per-
sonal privilege, referred to Mr.. Cannon
statement that he would have been court
martialed had he made his speech OF yes

fer to be shot in Manila than to be shot

EAGAN'S PAY IS SURE.
A Report to the Contrary Denied Mt
Department.

The report that Eagan, the suspended
army officer, would be denied the full
pay of his rank is denied at the War De-
partment. 1t was stated yesterday in the
office of the Judge Advocate General that
the question involved had already been
decided by the Court of Claims.
Unless it is specified IN the order of sus-
pension that the officer so punished snail
be deprived of his pay or any PORTION OF it
during the period of his suspension the
Court of Claims has decided that he is en-
titled TO receive full pay.
This decision was made in the case of
some cadets Of the Military AGA lCmy in
1893, who were suspended for improper
conduct in Chicago during the World s
Columbian Exposition. Their pay was
withheld, but the case was taken to the
Court of Claims and their claim was al
lowed. In the case of Judge Advocate
General Swain. who was under suspen-
sion for a long time, the order specified
that he should receive half pay.
In Eagan's case, however, no reference
is made to his alary in the order. He is
suspended from rank and duty" and, ac-
cording to the construction placed upon
the order by the War Department officials.
he is entitled to wear TIE uniform of his
rank and receive full pay.
