CORRESPONDENTS
PROTEST
Object to Censorship of
Manila News.

/ MANILA, July IL, via Hong Kong,
July 1.-THE constantly increasing
strictness of censorship of the press
dispatches which has prevented the
cabling to the United States of any
thing that did not reflect the official
views of important events and con-
ditions resulted in united effort on
the part OF correspondents here to
secure an abatement of the rigor of
censorship. The initiative in this
direction was taken month ago, and
resulted in the forming of statement
which was presented ON Sunday, July
9, to Major.General Otis, commanding
the military forces of tile United States
in the Philippines, with request for
permission 20 telegraph it to the
United States.
Correspondents also asked for per-
mission to cable their papers all the
facts and different phases of events as
they transpired here. The correspon-
dents had two long interviews with
Otis, in the course of which they
claimed the evident purpose of censor
ship was not to keep information from
the enemy. but to keep from public
knowledge of the real condition of
affairs here. 1t was also asserted by
correspondents that newspapers
printed in Manila which reach The
enemy weekly, are permitted to pub
lish statements similar to those which
to correspondents are forbidden to
cable. Otis finally promised greater
liberality, agreeing to pass all matter |
that he might consider not detri- |
mental to the interests OF the United |
States.
General Otis appointed Captain
Green, of his staff, as censor. The
statement of the correspondents is as
follows:
"The undersigned, all staff corre-
spondents of American newspapers
stationed in Manila, unite in the fol.
lowing statement:
"We believe that from official dis.
patches made public in Washington.
the people of the United States have
not received correct impression of
the conditions In the Philippines, but
that these dispatches have presented
BID ultra-optimistic view that is not
shared by general officers on the field.
We believe that the dispatches in
represent existing conditions
among the Filipinos in respect TO dis.
'ension and Generalization resulting
rom che American campaign, and to
The brigand character of their army.
We believe the dispatches err in the
declaration that the situation is we'll

nsurrection can be speedily ended

Terrible Energies of War Owned by the
WASHINGTON, July 16.-The war
department. has recently concluded an
exhaustive series Of experiments at
Sandy Hook, with high explosives and
light field guns that promises to mark
material advance in the artillery
branch of the service. The expert
ments were under the board of ordi-
nance and Notifications, composed of
both line and staff officers, of which
the major general commanding the
army is chairman. The recommend
atious of the board are in shape to be
prese nted by the secretary of war, and
If adopted will result in the arming of
the troops in the Philippines with the
most advanced type of field guns which
can fire Is armed shots per minute,
which can be operated by one man
and which. by its full crew, can be
taken to pieces in l3 seconds for load
ing on mule back for transportation
wherever needed. 1t is of three.incb
caliber and can carry solid shot, shrap-
mel or bursting charge of high ex-
plosive. which will kill by concussion
in radius of 200 feet. The high ex-
plosive has been tested for year and
is said to be superior to either lydite,
the British, or melinite, the French
high explosives.

BRADEN ON THE STAND
In the Big Pennsylvania Mining
Litigation.
BROKEN MASSES OF ORE
Witness Said 1t Was Impossible to Cor
relate Them-A North and South
Lode-A Contradiction
of Tower
BROKEN MASSES OF ORE

In the big and notable Pennsylvania
mining case Mining Expert William
Braden continued to occupy the witness
stand yesterday. The forenoon was
consumed in direct examination and
the afternoon in cross-eXamination.
The evidence of the witness was SUBJ
stantially the same as that of the wit
nesses for the defendant, who went
ahead Of him.
He said that it was impossible to
correlate the broken masses of ore be-
tween the faults with the east and
west veins and repeated the opinion
that the country between the faults is
a north and south lode. He took di-
rect issue with Expert Tower Of the
witnesses for the plaintiff as to the
character of the rock material in the
fault crevices. He placed in evidence
q rock sample which he said was taken
from the same place that Mr.. Tower
took a sample, and he testified that 1t
was clay, while Mr.. Tower testified that
mis- sample was porphyry The theory
OF the plaintiffs experts is that the
faults and the east and west assures
were formed at the same time, and
that the faults were not mineralized as
were the veins because or the lntru-
sion into them of injected porphyry.
The theory OF the defendants experts
is that the faults were formed after
the veins, and that the material in
them is composed of fragmentary ma
terial, soft and hard, friable and plas-
tic, brecciated and cemented, which
was formed in the fault creviceS by the
grinding together of the dislocated sec
tons of the country. Therefore the
testimony of Mr.. Braden and Mr.. Tow
err on this point is material, and the
contradiction involved is interesting.
Mr.. Braden resumed his testimony
ing.
The porphyry bodies on the various
levels constituted the first subject of
consideration. Mr.. Braden described
the porphyry body on the 900 level east
of the faults.
State whether or not the porphyry
east of the east fault reaches the fault"
said Mr.. Patterson.
THAT, l could not see," said the wit
ness.
Does the drift here west of the east
fault disclose any porphyry?"
No. sir; it does not
There is small subsidiary fault east
of the main faults at this point that
causes small displacement. according

LUCY SHOWS HER Teeth
She Is the Genuine Quintessence
of Indian Beauty.
A GRAND JURY WITNESS
She Is One OF a Delegation From the
Crow Reservation-She Smiled at
Clerk Sproule-Necklace@o
Rare Old Cowhids.

The Crow Indian reservation ie req
resented in Butte by half dozen In
dams who are here to give testimony
before the federal grand jury Inc
captain of police of the agency,
strapping big fellow, is the central fg-
ure of the squad But the real, gen
uine quintessence of beauty Is the
primrose damsel, Lucy Shows Her
Teeth. She is gorgeously and attract
lively attired in a red and white striped
blanket, cut square and edged with
pink taffeta--nit. Her head dress is
composed of the upper right hand cor
ner of the blanket and encircling her
dimpled neck is a thong of rare old
cowhide, depending from which is
jingle of old gold-colored metal cut and
shaped bordering on the grotesque.
Her dainty feet are encased in mother
of-pearl ties, decorated in Oriental
beads of alabaster and mock tortoise
shell. A tiara of ancient brass medais'
surmounts a head of beautiful hair.
She appeared before the grand jury as
a witness in some case and her fees
amounted to $1.50. Added to this was
mileage over 20 miles by private con-
veyance, besides car mileage from
Eastern Montana, the sum total
amounting to, $3.50. Clerk of the
Court Sprcule required the dusky maid
en- to swear to the correctness OF her
statement emitting her to the mileage,
but she was deaf and only looked at
the clerk, who smiled as she looked.
Finally she held up her right hand:
which was bejeweled with red ana
white metal rings, and the clerk paid
her off Her English is hardly inteili-

similar lode and produced book in
which it was described. The cases were
similar in some respects.
What is your definition of vein,
asked Mr.. Hughes.
1T is a crack or assure in the ground
mass, mineralized,'' said the witness.
Mineralized in any way?'
Yes"
Mr.. Hughes read parts of some tes-
timony given by Mr.. Braden at trial
last February in which the Montana
Ore Purchasing company and the Butte
& Boston company were parties. In
the testimony read the witness said
that he did not know where the apex
of the fiat ore body between the faults
was. He was asked how long after
he gave this testimony he formed his
opinion as to the position of the apex
of the north and south lode, and he
said that he formed the opinion be-
fore he gave the testimony. He said
that while he did not know where the
apex of the fiat ore body was then nor
now, he knew then where the apex
of the north and south lode was. He
did not regard the apex Of the lode
as the apex of the fiat ore body, but
considered the ore body as included
within the lode.
do you mean to say that you knew
where the apex of the north and south
timony read?" asked Mr.. Hughes.
Yes, SIR" said the witness.
Then, why did you not say where
it wasp
There was no OCCASION; the ques-
ton was not asked
The witness testified that his final
opinion as to the displacements that
had occurred in the disputed ground was
formed about the time he went on the
witness stand. He did not have defiin-
lite opinion as to the extent of the dis
placements when he gave his previous
testimony He had formed an opinion
on the subject only lately. He said
that it is his strong opinion that his
correlation of the east and west veins
is correct.
He had computed the displacements
from the plane of the east fault and
correlated the veins on that basis.
The amount Of displacement to the
west and the difference between the
movement of the ground between the
faults and that west of the faults here
came in for a long investigation in
which the results We're meager.
The witness was still talking about
this when court adjourned. The case
was continued to 10 o'clock Monday
in order that the court might attend
tos the business on the motion docket
to-day.
