A PIECE OF HISTORY
About Manila Affairs that Didn't
Come By Cable.
special Dispatch to Commercial Tribune.

Special Dispatch to Commercial Tribune.
Pittsburg, Pa, May 25.-A letter
just received from Captain J. A. Loar,
of Company E. Tenth Pennsylvania
Volunteers, now in the Philippines,
throws some most interesting light on
the much discussed retirement of Gen.
Green. The letter tells of an open
rupture between Admiral Dewey and
General Green, in which the New
York officer was ordered from the flag
ship Olympia, which he tried to
board. The letter was received by DIR.
Melville Loar, the Captains son.
| The officer who is known in
Western Pennsylvania as the "fghting
captain" says:
'It was the opinion of Admiral Dew
ey that the battle of Malate was not
necessary, and he did not think a life
should have been lost in the battle OF
Manila. In company with some Red
Cross people, I went on board the
Olympia and heard Admiral Dewey
| b6Wcy
General Green clashed warmly ovel
the battle of Manila. While the
fight was going on General Green went
in launch to the Olympia. Admira
dewey met him at the gang plank and
was evidently much surprised to SCI
him there at that time. Before Gen
Green could come on board the Admi
raj said: SIS it not true that a battle i
going on?"
Yes, such is the case, and 1 heal
that the Tenth has been annihilated,
replied Gen. Green.
u admiral Dewey was so angry tina
he refused to permit General Green t
board the vessel and ordered him bacl
to his men, where he said he belonged.
In another part Of his letter Capt
! Loar speaks of Colonel Hawkins, of tn
+ Tenth, speaking with General Gree
regarding the blunder which led tn
Tenth into unnecessary fire. Captai
Loar says it was General Green wh
e interfered with the promotion of Co
9 Hawkins.

Boss Cox says that he will see that
his delegation is part of the Republi-
can State Convention, whether any
other delegation Is selected in Hamil-
ton county or not. 1t will make an in
teresting time if he attempts to ride
over the state in the Convention, and
1t will make an interesting time at the
polls, if he and his delegation are
thrown out of the Convention. If his
delegation is regularly appointed OF
selected, it is not probable that any
body wants to interfere with theil
rights, but if he has usurped authority
he has no rights that should be repect
ed, let the consequences be what they
may.

CONGRESSMAN Burton, of Cleveland,
in our opinion, would be the best man
the Republicans could put up for Gov
ernor. He is clean, a man who stands
for the people, he has no boss, he sup
ported Hanna for Senator, after he had
been endorsed by the Republican Con-

A DARK OUTLOOK
For the Americans In the Philippines
Tho Insurgents Becoming Bold.

The latest dispatches from Manila
show that the insurgent forces are
becoming very active, harassing our
troops and keeping them in the trench
es night and day. They are building
three lines of trenches south of Manila.
They are close about Fernando, and are
occupying all towns abandoned by the
Americans. They are more aggressive
than at any time during the war. One
dispatch says:
"They keep the United States troops
in the trenches, sleeping in their cloth
ing and constantly on the alert against
dashes upon our OutpOsts, and they
make life warm for the American garri.
sons in the towns"
They are sending the helpers and
needy old people, women and children
into our lines to be fed by the Ameri
cans, while they keep all able-bodied
men to fight in their army or build
trenches.

near Fonda, Iowa. Hail fell for half
an hour at the latter place, stripping

In these days of frequent robberies it
Is well to adopt some method of idcnti-
fication more sure than that of simple
recognition of ones own jewels. 1t Is

The best method is the jewelers.
method. Every piece of jewclry they
own is marked with an Identification
number. 1t is scratched by the jeweler
as soon as it is bought, and entered on
his registry books with full descrip-
tion of the setting and each stone. EX-
anime your rings with a microscope
and the numbers will be found.
Whenever an article of jewelry is re-
paired this number, with its repair reg

book wherever it is left. This is true of
all articles of jewelry, but is particu-
larly noticeable in the repair of
watches. Every time watch is cleaned
its new number is scratched somewhere

time since the watch was last cleaned,

fill out the registry for You. Your

are greatly increased.

NUDE TWENTY YEARS.
Awful Pcnancc SeIf-lnnicted by q
Ute Indian Who Killed His
Mother.

ii. +. Myton, United States Indian
agent at White Rocks, Utah, has
among the Ute Indians on his reserva-
ton a man who for 20 years has done
awful penance to atone for the acci-
dental killing of his mother, but who,
in spite of what he has passed through,
thinks that he has not yet suffered suf-
ficiently for his transgression.
The killing was entirely accidental,
and the tribe held the Indian blame
less and did not punish him. His con-
science, however, was his accuser, and
it held him up as a criminal.
When his first burst of grief was
over he imposed harsh sentence upon
himself. He made solemn vow that
for the rest of his life he would not wear
clothing or enter house, tepee, or
other dwelling.
For more than 20 years the redskin
has kept his word He sleeps in the
open air, with piece of old blanket
about three feet square hung over him
on some sticks. He Is entirely nude.
Mr.. Myton says the Indian lies on the
ground through the winter, even when
the thermometer goes as low rs 40 de-
grees below zero.
