American Poultry Condemned.

Nine tons of poultry, consisting of
2,169 geese, turkeys, chickens and
ducks, from Boston, were landed re-
Gently at London dock, where it was
found that they had decayed on the
voyage. They could not be condemned,
however, till they had been loaded on
wagons and carted to a police court,
where a police magistrate came out,
listened to the inspectors story, salts
fed himself by his own senses that the
fowls were unsound and ordered them
to be destroyed. A police magistrate is
apparently the only English official
who can condemn bad meat, and this
he can do only after listening to com
plant and examining the corpus de-
lecti personally in his own courtroom.

act, and so the programme was
changed. Instead of appointing n
board to examine Schley, and permit
ting Sampson TO appoint a board to
examine himself. the secretary has ap-
pointed a board to examine all of the
rear admirals nominated and con-

bulletin announcing that the examina

The Killed and Wounded.

OUR killed and thirteen wounded

stubborn battle. 1t is a proud record
that the Montana boys are making. At
nearly every fight they seem to be right
in the thick of it. Often they are called
upon to bear the brunt of the battle
and they never finch: every time they
display splendid daring and glorious
heroism.
The question recurs how long such
sacrifices as those enumerated in this
mornings dispatches must be con-
tinued? How many more brave Mon
tana boys must be killed or manned
for the sake of subduing the miserable
scrubs of Filipinos? What prospect is
there of a decisive engagement which
shall wind up Aguinaldo's guerrilla
warfare? General Otis has been quoted
as saying that the war will be over
within three months, but perhaps this
is sanguine view of the case. The
island of LuZon is a big territory. 1t
has no railroads crossing the interior.
and there is not a military road to be
found. If the natives choose to make
running fight, keeping under cover
of the forests and junges, they can
keep an army of fifty thousand men
very busy for an, indefinite period
They can creep up in the night, fire a
few volleys from cover at daybreak and
then scatter to the hills before the
American soldiers, who are unaccus-
toned to the enervating heat of the
tropics, can discover their hiding
places. 1t is said that they can sub
sist off the natural products of the
country for an indefinite period and
being agile. cunning and extremely
hardly, they can prove a most tantaliz-
ing foe.
No doubt the Filipinos, like most of
the excitabe people of the tropics
waste much of their ammunition. If
their supply can be effectively cut off
for period of three months, they will
find themselves without the means of
fighting and the war will come to an
end. On the other hand, if they can
secure all the ammunition they want
and they see fit to keep up a guerrilla
warfare, Genera Otis will be in great
luck if he forces them to surrender in
a year from this time.
