Pingree and the Senatorshtp.

Lansing, Mich, Oct. 7.-Since the
withdrawal of Gen. Alger from the sem
atorial contest it has been much
mooted question whether Governor
Pingree would work for the election of
a democrat to succeed Senator McAIil-
Ian next year Adjt. Gen. Case, who
stands close to Pingree, said recently:
What's the matter with us turning
in and helping elect a democrat to sue
ceed Mcmillan? In fact this may be
the course the Pingree people viii pur-
sue. 1t looks that way now
All during the campaign of 1896 Gen.
Case was an aggressive and consistent
supporter of Bryan and silver, to say
nothing of his ardent support of Charles
r. Sigh. the fusion nominee for gov
ernor. At that time Case was the edi-
tor and proprietor of a newspaper, and
he gave the democratic nominees en-
thusiastic support in its columns. Not
long after this, however, he was ap-
pointed adjutant general which office
he has filled ever since, and now he is
one of the foremost of the Pingree re-
pubicans of Michigan, prominent in the
councils of those who assume to say
what candidates the republican party of
Michigan shall support and what issues
lit shall advocate.

Des Moines, Oct. THE employing

together to meet the requirements of the
age in the regula ton of competition. 1t
is matter of common knowledge that
the printing business has been ruinous-
liy demoralized by cut-throat competi-
ton in recent years. There has been
no standard of prices and printers have
been played upon by their customers
and often led by Misrepresentation,
Ipride, jealousy and other mistaken no.
tions into doing work, not only without
profit, but frequently at an actual loss.
No town or city was in a worse condi-
ltion in this respect than Des Moines.f
Too many print shops existed, it is true
and each one seemed to be trying to
keep others from getting business, as
well as endeavoring to get as much as

Washington, Oct. livery port, ev-

by the advice Of Admiral Dewey, who
is firm in the belief that the insurrec-

hereafter. 1t was for this reason thai

the island of Luzon in particular must
be guarded by Gordon of smaller ships
capable of running close in shore in
pursuing flibustering craft. 1t is no,
expected that the navy can fight the in
surgents, but it can prevent the intro
duction of arms and supplies for Agui-
naldo's army.
Naval ships are now scouting all
along the coast. and have particularly
devoted their attention to Lingayen and
Dagupan at the northern terminus of
the railroad riSht-of-way. All along
the shores OF the Lingayen gulf there
are river mouths. islands and inside
channels. From now on a warship will
be stationed in the gulf, and every
trader entering between the cable sta

be halted and forced to show its papers,

this service. and launches and con-

Admiral Dewey has guaranteed that
the navy will effectually blockade the
island SO that If Otis does his work and
disintegrates Aguinaldo's army it will
be unable to secure supplies for a re-
organization.

went to the race this morning, returned
this afternoon with the British flag at

death on board and wanting assistance.
AS she passed the battery the captain

ROBBED A BAGNIO.
Officer Bagiey Has a Lively Sprint
After James Scott.

James Scott gave Officer Bagley a
lively chase yesterday before he cap
tured him and lodged him in the Gala,
boose.
Bagley was notified that during the
absence of the woman who rooms at
3031a L street yesterday a man had
entered the back window OF the place
and stolen a sealskin sack, dress and
other articles of wearing apparel val.
ued at over $50. He was given a par
tial description of the fellow and pro-
ceeded to look him up. A couple OF
hours afterward he ran across and ar.
rested him. He took him to the store
at Second and L streets in order to tel
ephone for the patrol wagon and while
doing so the fellow slipped out of his
coat and ran.
Bagley is a pretty good sprinter HIM
self and he followed his man down L
street and through the alley to K and
down on Front street. There the fellow
lodged in among the cars, and Bag
ley lost him for while. He felt con-
fident, however. that the fellow could
not get away and finally found him
by aid of a boy who crawled through a
small hole under the platform on which
fruit and vegetables are shipped. The
fellow bolted again, but Bagley nabbed
him and to make sure of him this time,
clapped the handouts on him. Scott
stated that he used to be a police ser,
geant on the Bowery, New York.
Bagley found where Scott had sold
the things at a second hand store on
Second street. and as the woman who
bought them and a woman who saw
him climb into the window both recog-
nized him, Bagley thinks he has a
good case.
