A REWARD FOR MURDER
Yu Mantle Is Reported to Be on

ON ANOTHER RAMPAGE
Is Said to Have Drowned Several Hun
dred Children Who Wers Under the
Charge of the Catholics-A
Bloody Fight.

Tacoma, Wash, Feb. 10.-The Gleno-
gle, from Hon Kong and way ports,
brings late papers from China and ia
pan. The North China News says:
Yu Mantle is reported to be on the
raid again and to have captured two
French Missionaries. If he is to receive
a button and 100000 taels every time he
is on the rampage, destroying places
and Staying foreigners, his followers
will increase, his courage grow greater
and general insecurity in inland cit
iesrIwill prevail. 1t is reported from
the west that after the raidng at Keu-
flu while several hundreds of children

weTe on their way down the river they
were seized and drowned. We have
received no confirmation of this and
trust it may only be rumor.
Information has been received here
by telegraph that Captain Edward Chi
chester of H. NJ. S. Immortalite. has re-
ceived the decoration of C. NJ. G. for
his meritorious services in Manila, dur
ing the blockade of the port of Manila
by the United States fleet. Lieuten-
ants Dawson of the Waterwitch; Orp-
ing of the Centurion, and Grafton of

the rank of commander.
japanese papers state that gold coin
amounting to about 100000 yen has
been exported to the United States by

pose does not appear. lit is suggested,
however, that the depression in none
tary circulation may be partially due to
this circumstance.

troops had been fed rotten beef, said
Mr.. Lentz, and yet General Eagan was
to- be suspended with pay for SIX
years and then retired upon thfee-
fourths pay because he had denounced
the truth as lie.
He was to be rewarded for attacking

The committee then rose. At o'clock
the house took recess until 5 O'Clock
the evening session to be devoted 10
pension legislation.
At the night session of the house 81
private pension bills were passed.
Among them was the senate bill to
pension Letitia Tyler Sample, the
daughter of President Tyler. which
deadlocked the house a week ago, and
the senate bill to pension ex-senator
John NJ. Palmer of Illinois at the rate
of $50 per month. The amount carried
by the bill to pension Mrs. Sample was
reduced from $50 to $50 per month. In
the course of the discussion upon the
bill to pension General Palmer it de-
veloped that he was absolutely with
out means and was practically blind.
Mi Brucker, dem. Mich, recalled the
fact that General Palmer had been the
candidate of the gold democrats for
president in 1896 and suggested that
that might account for the fact that
this bill was pushed through within a
month after its Introduction. Mr.. Tai
bot, dem, S. c., moved that the pension
be paid in silver.
General Palmer is in favor of sound
money" said he; ''let us pay him in
the good old silver of the constitution"
The motion was not entertained by
Mr.. Connolly, rep, ILL.,, who was in the
chair.

FOR A PACIFIC CABLE
Mckinley Urges Its Importance
on Congress.
A PARAMOUNT NECESSITY
TWO Methods Suggested by the Presi-
dent-It Must Extend es Far as
Manila and Be Constructed Il
as Soon as Possible.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The presi-
transmitted to congress to-day, is as
follows:
AS a consequence of the ratification
of the treaty of Paris by the senate of
the United States and it's expected rat
ification by the Spanish government,
the United States will come into pos
session Of the Philippine islands, on the
farther shores of the Pacific. The Ha-
waian islands and Guam, being United
States territory and forming convent
ent stopping places on the way across
the sea, the necessity for speedy cable
communication between the United
States and all the Philippine islands has
become imperative. Such communica-
ton should be established in such a
way as to be wholly under the control
Of the United States, whether in time
of peace or war. At present, the Phil
ippines can be reached only by cables
which pass through many foreign coun
tries, and the Hawaiian islands and
Guam can only be communicated with
by steamers, involving delays in each
instance of at least a week. The pres
ent conditions should not be allowed

is absolutely necessary.
The time has now arrived when a
cable in the Pacific must extend as far
as Manila, touching at the Hawaiian
islands and Guam on the way. Two
methods of establishing this cable COM
mun1cation at once suggest themselves:
First-Construction and mainte-
nance of such a cable at the expense
of the United States government
"Second-Constructio and mainte-
nance of such cable by a private
United States corporation under such
safeguard as congress shall impose
Il do not make any recommendation
to congress as to which Of these meth
ods would be more desirable. A cable
OF the length of that proposed requires
SO much time for construction and
laying that it is estimated that at
least two years must elapse after CIV
ing the order for the cable before the
entire system could be successfully laid
and put in operation. Further deep
sea sounding must be taken west of
the Hawaiian islands before the best
route for the cable can be selected,
Under these circumstances, it becomes
a paramount necessity that measures
should be taken before the close of the
present congress to provide such means
as may seem suitable for the establish
ment of cable system.
Il recommend the whole subject to
the careful consideration of the con-
gress, and to such prompt action as
may seem advisable. d. %f-&-xs.s

A Wrecked Balloon and the Bodies o
Three Men Discovered
u Krasnovarsk, Siberia, Feb. 10.-A gold
mine owner named Monastyrschin has
received a letter saying that tribe of
Turgusos, inhabiting the Timur PENN
su1a, North Siberia, recently informed
the Russian police of the district that on
January last, between kono and Pit,
in the province of Yeniseiske, they
found cabin constructed of cloth and
eordage apparently belonging to
balloon. Close by were the bodies of
three men, the head of one badly crush
ed. Around them were a number of
instruments, the uses of which were not
understood by the Turgusos. The po-
lice chief has started for the spot to
Investigate, and it is believed the bodies
are those of the aeronaut, Herr Andree,
and his companions. The balloon Ea gle,
with Professor Andree and two COM
panions, Strindberg and Frondkel, in
the car, left Danes island III the Sritz-
enberg group on July IL, 1897, in an at

No definite news of the aeronauts has
been received, beyond the message at
tached to a carrier pigeon found by the

even as to the court routine, is jealousy

RIVAL DEMONSTRATIONS.
Civil or Foreign War Unless the Drey fus
Case Is Ended

Paris, Feb. 10.-Late this evening
there was considerable ferment in the
streets caused by the shouting of the
rival parties. A crowd of anti-revis-
ionists, on finding themselves unable
to gain admission to a meeting that was
being addressed by NJ. Quesnay de
Beaurepaire, moved off and demon
strated at the office of the minister of
war, the Palais Bourbon and the offices
of the Libre Parole, where the demon
STATIONS became rather threatening
and ended in scuffle with the police,
who made numerous arrests. Strong
police forces are posted everywhere.
In his speech at the meeting NJ de
Beaurepaire declared that unless the
Dreyfus scandal was brought to an
end it would entail either civil or a
foreign war. Very few, however, will
share this opinion. Nevertheless, the
chamber of deputies is evidently in no
mood for another ministerial crisis. and
it is even said that the open letter to
the government by NJ. Brisson and
other prominent deputies yesterday
served to increase to-days majority in
favor of the revision bill, several of
those who signed it being suspected of
aiming at office.
The debate in the chamber proved
stormy, but uninteresting.

BICYCLE CARNIVAL.
1t Is Expected That All World Records
Will BE Lowered.


San Francisco, Feb. 10.--A carnival of
bicycle contests will begin tomorrow in
the Mechanics Pavilion on a new eight
lap track, which has been laid for the
purpose. Jimmy Michael. the middle dis
lance champion of the world, pronounces
it the fastest indoor track of its size ever
constructed. 1t is so steep that it has
been predicted that riders not in good
condition will be obliged to drop out. Its
safety was demonstrated however, when
Fourier rode. 10 miles with his motor
cycle, averaging 1:55 for each mile. Mi
chael followed the hot pace for half the
distance on the occasion of his first prae-
tice spin, and he expects to take five, and
perhaps 10, seconds off that time when
he becomes more accustomed to the track.
The management is confident that every
worlds record in existence will be low
erred during the coming series of competi-
TONS
On Monday night a six-day bicycle race
will be inaugurated and among the wheel
men who have already entered for that
contest are such cracks as Miller. Pierce,

Augmentation Cut Down.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The army APP
preparation bill was completed to-day
by the house committee on military af-
fairs and by dint of pretty severe cut
ring of numerous items 1t was brought
down to S79,034, 372. 1t Is framed on the
basis of an army of about 100000 men
and contemplates the enactment of the
Hull bill for the increase of the army
or the retention of volunteers and reg
ulars up to that number. Specific pro-
vision is made for nine major generals
and u brigadier generals. The com
mittee inserted in the bill an appropri-
alton of $350,0o0 for the establishment
of a plant for manufacturing small
arms at Rock Island, Ill. This item
is entirely new and the departure of
would bring the daily output of the
government up to 1000 stands a day.
