Ex-Speaker Reed, while he declines
all interviews, has let it leak out that
the reason he rendered his resignation
as Speaker and retired to private life
was because he was at variance with
the adrGnistration and in the minority
of his party. It is limited that the ex-
speaker is getting ready to take line
with the Democrats; thab the country
has entered upon dangerous enter
prise in the far east, and that it will
take Democratic principles to save it.

Cottort receipts at all ports and in

expert, has issued another statement
calling for eleven million bales "a drop
of one million bales from his first esti--

cotton experts, taken with the govern
sment reports, indicates a maximum
crop Of not more than ten million
bales, with likelihood Of nine mil

sHEEPMEN WIN A VICTORY.
VIM be Allowed to Craze Their FIocks on
the Uintah Reserve.

Washington. July 29.-Land Com
missioner Hermann has instructed the
forestry superintendent at Denver to
telegraph TO allow sheep herding or
the Uintah forest reserve during two
months in the year.
The superintendent is directed to
prepare descriptions by metes and
bounds Of certain open areas in the re-
serve on which he will allow a certain
number OF sheep, TO be fixed by him
self, to Craze during two months, also
TO be fixed by himself As the number
of sheep that will be allowed on the
reserve will be far less than the num-
Der the sheepmen will want to put
there, he is directed to notify the own
ers of the regulations and to request
them to pro-rate the total number al
lowed among themselves
Only the Utah sheep are TO be al
lowed on the reserve, as it is the pol
icy of the department to confine the
grazing privilege to sheep owned
within the state in which the reserve
is situated. The superintendent is re-
quired to caution the herders to exert
special watchfulness to prevent sheep
from encroaching on the forest area.
Any violation of conduct on the part
of the herders as to time, number and
place of herding will at once terminate
the permission as to all sheep grazing
on the reserve and the forestry officials
are directed to exclude all sheep If any
of the regulations are violated. The
success or failure of this years graz
ing will determine the future action
Of the department.

CHoATE'S CAREER AS LAWYER

There is one notable feature Of RUFUS
Choate's career as a lawyer that Dis
distinguished nephew omitted to dwell
upon in his grafton, doubtless for rea-
sons of propriety. This was his in
sidious power over a jury, which was
something that the jurors themselves
never quite understood. This power
was well illustrated by the remark Oh
hard-headed old farmer who was
one of a jury that gave five verdicts
In succession for Choate's clients once
upon a time. Il understand, sir, thai
you are relative of Lawyer Choate'
said this juror subsequently to one Of
Choate's nephews, "and l want to tell
you that / was not swaysd or inhu-
enced in the least by his flights o.
fancy, but l consider him very LUCKY
lawyer. for there was not one OF thos'
cases that came before us where "
wasn't on the right side"

In It's Policy OF spoIiation There H,,

The bishops and the salvationists

of peace? Has not her policy for
years past, in the far east especially,
made directly for war? She has been
aggressive, INSCRIPTIONS, untruthiul N
her dealings with China, with Japan
and with England; she scared Japan
out of the Liaotung peninsula, and
claimed it for herself; she bluffed Eng
land out of Manchuria, and she now
claims it for her sphere of influence.
in all this policy of spoliation there
was no sign of peace, nothing that
suggested the temper of cancellation
If we had had statesman with grit

longer. At an early date there must
have been var between this country
and Russia, with the alternative that
Russia should give up her pretensiOM

ALGER HAS RESIGNED
WILL RETIRE FROM CABINET ON
AUGUST I.
No Reason for the Resignation is Assigned,
and Neither the President, Secretary
Nor Other Cabinet OmcIals
VIII Talk.

Washington, July 21.-Secretary Al
ger has rendered to the president his
esignation of the war portfolio. The
resignation will become effective Au-
gust l, though it was rendered "at the
pleasure of the president" The pres
ident will accept the resignation.
The belief has prevailed at Washing
ton for some time that Secretary AL
ger would resign from the cabinet, but
the date generally set for it was to-
ward the close of the year, after he
had submitted his annual report, in
which he intended to sum up what had
been accomplished during his brief but
eventful direction of the war depart
ment. Its tender then had been re-
garded as almost foregone conclu-
sion, in view of Mr.. Ayers announce
ment about month ago that he had
concluded to enter competition for the
vacancy in the United States senate to
be caused by the expiration of the
5000 - AOh0tOi anu LIldL ne
had enlisted in his active support Gov
ernor Pingree, to whom had been at
tributed free criticisms of the policy
that was supposed to be cherished by
the president toward the Filipinos.
There is considerable speculation as
to Ayers successor, and among the
names being mentioned are those Of
General Horace Porter of New York,
now ambassador to France; Governor
Roosevelt of New York, General Har-
rison Gray Otis and Assistant Secre-
tary Meikeljohn. The name of Gen
eral Corbin has been mentioned in
connection with an ad interim APP
pointment, pending the selection of
a permanent occupant of the office.
Neither Secretary Alger, the presi-
dent nor any member of the cabinet
are inclined to talk of the matter.

twelve members of the steamer Elk
expedition to Kolbes sound, is reported
from st. Michael by the steamer Roam

The story of the sufferings of this
party is the most terrible that has vet
come from Alaska, where hardships
have been many and the loss of life
great The story was told to Harold
Stuegus of Chicago by Mrs. Bens, who
was brought in from the head waters
of the Koyukuk river the day before
the Roanoke left. Mrs. Bens escaped
death on the trail, but is in danger of
dying of scurvy. Husband, fortune
and friends were swept away by that
wild trip across the Alaskan mountains.

Manila, July can order has been
issued regulating practice before the

respects 1t abolishes procurators, who
corresponded somewhat to solicitors in

tofore performed by procurators de-
volving upon attorneys Members of
the bar must be residents of the island.
Citizens of foreign governments are
ineligible to practice at the bar. Mem
bers of the American bar are eligible.
The order gives the courts sole power
to determine the qualifications of at
torneys, which heretofore has been
a function of the bar association, and
the church schools have controlled ad-
mission to the bar. The changes out
ained have been made in accordance
with the wishes of the Filipinos

ROBERT G. INoERsoLL DEAD.
The Great Agnostic succumbs to an Attack
of Heart Disease.

of Heart Disease.
New York, July 23.-Colonel Robert
G. Ingersoll died at his home, Walston-
on-Hudson, near Dobb's Ferry, Friday.
His death was sudden and unexpected
and resulted from the heart disease
from which he had suffered since 1896.
Mrs lngersoll was the only person
in the room with him when he died.
Death came to him as he had recently
expressed desire it should. He Of
ten, in olden times, said he wished to
die slowly, with a full consciousness,
so he might tell those about him how
1t felt. Recently he expressed a
change and desired to die painlessly
and without warning.
Robert Green Ingersoll was born in
Dresden, Yeats county, August IL, 1899
He went west when 10 years old; was
short time in an academy in Ten
nessee, also taught school in that

congress; became colonel of the Elev.
enth Illinois cavalry in 1852; was at
torney general for Illinois in 1866; re-
fused post of minister to Germany in
1877.
Colonel Ingersoll's notoriety and
fame has been acquired through his
public lectures denying the existence
OF a God and criticising the Bible and
the Christian religion.
Colonel Ingersoll first attracted DO
litical notice by his brilliant eulogy of
James G. Blaine in the Republican ma
tional convention at Cincinnati in
1875. In his speech nominating Mr..
Blaine for the presidency, Mr.. Inger-
soil referred to his favorite as the
"plumed knight, name that attached
itself to Mr. Blaine and remained with
him during his remaining years.
Colonel Ingersoll practiced law at
Peoria, ILL.,, for many years, but after
wards settled in New York.
