The Truth Not Told.

Manchester, N. H., July 25.-Com-
mander Walker, who commanded the
gunboat Concord in the battle OF Ma
nila and whom the New Hampshire
legislature voted thanks, is visiting
his native State. Some of the news
paper correspondents who signed the
recent round robin know him we'll.
Commander Walker stated that he
did not think the reports from COM
manding officers at Manila were as
full and complete as the nation re-
quired they should be, and now the
rainy season had set in, many men
would be sufferers from climate con
ditions. He did not doubt that there
were fully 5000 0men in hospitals there
, He is firmly convinced that with Wig
orous prosecution of the war an
with plenty of men at hand tn
trouble would soon be over, and tina
: now that the United States ha
. claimed the islands, we should tirml
, plant ourselves there until such tim
y as it can be settled whether or not t
" the people of that country can tax
care of themselves.

Mob Swings up Another Victim.

Montgomery, Ala, July 25.-News
has just reached here from Alaga,
near the Georgia line, that Charles
Mack, one of the principals in the
Ogletree assault implicated by the
lynched negro Sammin, has been
lynched there by mob from Balm
bridge, Ga. Mack was captured at
Iron City yesterday afternoon, and
the mob started across the country
with him toward Georgia
When some distance had been ira
versed a message was received, stating
that another member of the gang had
been captured. A consultation was
held, and it was decided to wait unit
this morning and hold a double hang
ing. Particulars from Alaga are mea
gre, but it is understood that til,
mob, growing tired of waiting for thu
appearance of posse with the othe
prisoner, made Mack confess his shar
in the crime, gave him time to pray
and then strung his body up to
tree, riddling it with bullets.
f Kid Jini, desperate member OF tn
gang, has been surrounded in
swamp, but he is guarded by mum
: ber OF negro friends, aud the white

Carter Harrison Commended

Chicago, July 24.-Letters received
at Democratic State headquarters
show that the Illinois party leaders
outside of Cook county, as we'll as
here in Chicago, commend Mayor Har-
rlsons action in staying away from
Altgeld's bimetallic meeting at the
Auditorium.
The country politicians were first in
clined to believe the mayor would
make mistake if he avoided the de-
monstration, but the developments
proved the contrary, and the men who
have been watching the course Of
events do not hesitate to admit it.
1t cropped out today that the Alt
geld crowd did not pay Mr.. Bryan the
ordinary courtesy of sending carriage
for him the night ofthe silver meeting
He waited at the Sherman House unit
after O'Clock, but no word came from
the managers of the demonstration
and the Nebraskan finally conclude'
that Altgeld meant what he said whe
he sent Bryan the message that tn
meeting could get along without hin
> > Then M. F. Dunlap and George F
Doying, of Jacksonville procured
;. carriage and took Mr.. Bryan to tt
meeting.

Achieved a Great Success.

The Hague. July, 25.-I have seen
the American delegates and they talk
ed freely about the conference, but re-
fused to make statement about the
results before the conference rises.
The following, however, may be ac'
cepted as a fairly accurate summary
of the views they entertain
"The conference achieved great
success-much greater than the dele
gates anticipated-and the result was
achieved largely by the amour poupre
of capable men from all parts OF the
world, determined to accomplish some
thing worth their assembling together.
The result surprised all of them and
the magnitude of the gains is imper-
fectly understood even by the confer
ence.
1.-THE establishment Of a permanent
court OF arbitration on the American
principal of revision, plus the French
declaration of the duty Of neutrals, to
recommend disputing powers to resort
to the arbitration court rather than tC
war, represent vast progress in the
evolution of human socity. The rec
ognition of the duty to represent tt
disputants the desirability of resortine
to the arbitration court entails no obi
CATION on the Americans inconsisten
with their traditional policy. This i
made absolutely clear by the declara
ton signed by the American delega
ton, read in full at the conference tC
day and entered on the records.
"Mr. Low was busily engaged toda
upon the elaboration of the final al
recording the work of the conference
Mr.. Hollis has achieved position of i
huence much greater than that OF mar
of the first delegates, and CAPITA
Crozier is much admired for his plucl
fight in support of his amendment
the Russian resolution on the dur
dun bullet.
"The relations between the Anne
can and other delegates, notably t
English, German and Russian,
been extremely friendly. The Ell
lishmen and Americans acted throus
out almost like a joint delegate
This was due to no arrangement
direction, but soely because both
tions found common ground OF
fence, common interests civilizat
and humanity.
'The only point on which the f
lsh delegates failed to support
Americans was the resolution for
ding the capture of private prop
at, sea. To this the English re
sentatives were not opposed but,
ish opinion being divided, the d
gates had no Instructions regart
the matter, and abstained from ia
action.
after the arbitration conventio
signed it will probably be opene
the adhesion Of all Others poV
not represented at the confer
on condition that no original signs
of the convention object, This
to blackball any power wishing tc
the convention was insisted upc
Italy in order to prevent the adh'
of the Pope, and by England, Q
count OF the Transvaal. 1t is /
that all the South American
will come in.
"It is the unanimous opinion (
the American delegates that the
ference begins new epoch, and
the good seed now sown will V
rich harvest hereafter.

Reelfoot Lake.

A special from Union City,
dated September Oath, says:
at will be remembered that
several weeks ago Maj. j. @.
Harris, Of Lake County, who
claims to own Reelfoot Lake,
began The work of draining
it, and had completed sever
al hundred yards of the big
ditch, when several wealthy
and prominent citizens COM
bined as the "Anti-Draining
Club" filed an injunction
against Maj. Harris and stop
ped his work. Maj. Harris
then bought the interest Of
j. H. Townsley in the I'm
ion City Fish Company and
proposed to buy the catch of
the fishermen. The majority
of the latter preferred selling
their fish to others and Bur-
dick q Webster, wholesale
and retail dealers of this city,
began to receive immense
quantities Of game and fish
daily. Maj. Harris has been
granted an injunction against
Messrs. j. G. Burdick, j. W.
Wade, John Hadley, d. A.
Mitchell and others from fish
ing in the lake or carrying
on the business of buying or
selling fish and game upon
is banks. There is no tell
ing how the law suits will
terminate, for the opposition
may retaliate by applying
for an injunction against par
ties whom Maj. Harris favors,
from fishing.''
