that different people don't look st

MY own dispatches have not arrived,
probably owing to the censorship. In the
meanwhile l do not consider the situation
as bad for the Beers as made out by the
English kilograms, which are intended for

probably too optimistic. The fact that the
Beers retired in order 10 reform later

their tactics and does not prove that they
have suffered seriously"

from Cape Town Sunday says that ad-
vices received there from Pretoria report

Cd that it is expected the executive cOun-

San Francisco, Oct. 3.-Gen. Frederick
Funston, in an interview to-day said:
Il am getting tired of the absurd claims
that are being made by certain politicians
of Kansas. Letters have been written me
by certain alleged political leaders claim
ing credit for some order that has been of
advantage TO the regiment or to myself.
They claim credit for the order To go To
Manila, and further assert that / owe my
promotion to brigadier TO their Influence
1t is claimed that the regiment got its
order TO come home through the influence
of certain politicians, and now comes the
absurd story that if these same politicians
had not eXerted a mighty influence
would not have been returned to Manila
The fact of ;he matter is that the Kan
sas regiment would have rotted i'm the
sand lots at Camp Merritt. would never
have gone to Manila, would be In the
Philippines yet, | would still be a colonel.
and would soon be a private citizen had it
depended on the exertions or influence Of
these politicians. The Kansas regiment
