TO RESUME BUSINESS.
Insurance Agents at This Place
Wired to Receive Premiums
and Issue Policies.

Yesterday afternoon Major A. H.
Sewer, one of our local fire insur'
ance agents, received wire from
Little Rock, telling him to resume
business as formerly.
This can have but one meaning
and that one is that the supreme
court sustained circuit Judge Mar
tins decision in the anti-insurance
trust cases,
AS conference of governors
has been called for all states that
are known to be antagonistic to
trusts for the purpose of drafting
a code of laws that will hold against
the courts, we will net express an
opinion, but await their action.
Should this meeting ofgovernors be
able to get a code of laws that are
uuassailable, then Governor Jones
can call the legislature togther and
act on the matter In way that
will put to sleep forever the trusts
that are now formed and being
formed daily.

BRYAN TO SPEAK IN OHIO.
His Itinerary Will he Limited t0
Country Districts.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, October 1.-THE re-
port that on account of i'll health W. j.
Bryan will have to cancel his Ohio dates
is vigorously denied by Chairman Seward
OF the democratic state committee and
there seems to be no more substantial
basis for it than that Mr.. Bryan is tempo
rarily suffering from sore throat, and the
opinion that prevails, among the republicans
at least, is that Mr.. Bryan would like to
avoid Ohio if he could gracefully in this
campaign and that Mclean would like to
have him do so. This opinion finds some
ground in the fact that Bryan has been
assigned to speak only in rural counties of
strong democratic tendencies. 1t Is evident
ly the intention of the democrats not to
stir UP the money question in the large
cities.
But excepting Mr.. Bryan no prominent
democrat from outside the state has been
brought into the Ohio campaign. The re-
publicans are making a much more vigor-
Gus fight on the stump than the demo-
Gratis are. Many of the best campaigners
state or are billed to appear soon.
Among these are Senators Penrose, Bur-
rows, Thurston and DeDew, Representa-
tive Henderson, T. V. Powderly and NJ D.
Ratchford, former national president of
the United Mine Workers, and Governor
Roosevelt Mclean himself is making no
speeches He has far confined his cam
paigning since the formal opening of the
campaign at Hamilton to county fairs,
where he is simply introduced and makes
a few remarks.

MCKINLEY SHOULD BE sgsTAINED.
Senator Hanna Talks of TIE sftuatfor
in 0llin

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio. October 11.-Senator
Hanna was asked today, tor an expression
of opinion in the alleged urtz-McLean
conspiracy in Ohio to defeat Judge Nash,
and to break the power of the national ad-
ministration in Ohio. The senator SAID:
ANY detection in the republican votes this
fall will cast reflection upon President Nc
Kinley and will be taken up by the DEM
ocratic press all over the country l want
to caution republicans lest they might vote
for Jones in a thoughtless way and over
turn the republican party" The senator
classed Mayor Jones as a bolter from the
republican party and demagogue. Mr..
Hanna also scored Mclean. The President,
Senator Hanna said, ought to be, and would
be, emphatically indorsed in Ohio this fall.
Since Mr. Hanna's return from Washing
ton he has received a number OF visit
ors from different states, and has written
a number of letters to the chairnfen of va
rious state committees; there seems little
doubt that he is preparing to conduct Pres
ident McKinley's campaign again next year
The senat tor says: Mclean does not de-
serve to get the support of single vote in
this state. He cares nothing for Ohio, and
has only come back here for the gratifica-
tiOH Ol HIS peTSoildl dulDItloHS. II lS per-
fectly true that he has voted i'm this state
only twice III the last fourteen years. 1t is
also true that he is only seAking the gov
ernorship as a stepping stonS. He wants to
become United States senatof. He support
ed me in the senatorial fight at Columbus
only because he did not war4 to be beaten
by such fellow as McKiison. All that
Mclean wants is political prestige in
Washington. He is just like his father.

Sharp Fighting Beyond San FranciscO

SAN FRANCISCO DE MALABON, Oc-
tober 11.-Genera Schwan's column, ap-
preaching this town, marched through
country so muddy that the mules all col
lapsed He occupied the town without
fighting, the insurgents retreating under
cover of the creek beds. Later reconnoiter-
ing in force southward, General Schwan
came upon trenches where hidden insur-
gents poured several voleys upon the gen
eral and his staff. The rebels resisted stub
bornly. The reconnoiterers, consisting of
Captain Geary's battalion of the 18th Regt-
ment and two guns of Riley's Battery,
drove the insurgents two miles, fighting all
the way. They found field piece and sew
eIal wounded and sick FiEiDinos flying red
flags and captured twenty-five insurgents,
including three officers. Many Filipino
dead were strewn along the fields. The
Americans total loss was one officer and
seven men wounded.
General Schwan's main column started at
daylight this morning along fearful road
on the left bank of the river, hankers be-
Ing thrown far out and Major Budds pat
TALON on the right bank covering the flank,
rendering the fire from the 1nSurgent
trenches ineffective.

TRANSPORTATION OF TROOPS.
No Necessity to Hire Four Additional
Vessels. .

The Secretary of War has decided that
the movement Of troops to Manila can be
accomplished by the present fleet Of trans
ports without hiring the four additional
vessels, the Vostock, Aube Flintshire and
Moyuna, whose charter has been under
consideration. The aim Of the department
has been to get all of the fresh troops to
Manila by December %. and to carry this
determination out to the letter would have
necessitated securing the additional vessels
mentioned But by using the Warren and
the Sherman at the earliest opportunity the
two additional colored regiments can be
landed by January / and January 10. re-
spectively These regiments were not in
cluded in the original estimate of the
troops for transport, and the question of
getting them to Manila a scant month
earlier is not thought to warrant the large
expenditure that would be entailed in char
tering and Quitting four new vessels.

Detectives Tell Their Stories of Ar

THEY ARE SHARPLY ROSS-EIAMInED
Defendants Counsel Attempts to
Discredit the Officers.
SOME SENSATIONS SPRUNG

PHILADELPHIA, October 1.-THE third
day of the trial of Ellery p. Ingham and
Harvey X. hewitt, respectively, former
United States district attorney and assist
ant, on the charge of conspiracy and
bribery, in connection with the Lancaster
revenue stamp counterfeiting case was par
ticularly interesting. Secret Service Opera
tive McManuS, who swore on the stand
yesterday that Mr.. hewitt had on two oc-
casions given him $500 to protect the coun-
terfeiters, was under Attorney Shields
cross-examining fire, during which the de-
fence was outlined.
Mr.. Shields confined his questions almost
exclusively to the payment of the money
by hewitt to McManus. He asked the
witness if at any time the names of the
Lancaster people had been mentioned,
either by himself or by Mr.. hewitt. On
answering in the negative witness was
asked ii he had not told Mr. hewitt that
the secret service had no case in Lam
caster. MIR. McManus said he might have
said this for a purpose.
Mr.. Shields showed by his cross-question-
ing that he wanted Mr.. McManuS to admit
that he had led Mr.. hewitt into a trap but
was not very successful. When counsel for
the defense had finished with the witness
District Attorney Beck questioned the wit
ness relative to certain Instructions made
by the opposing lawyer.
There was d hint of forgery on McManus
part in connection with a pension claim.
and this was further investigated when
Samuel L. Richards was called to the
stand.
Richards Oss-Examined.
The defense cross-examned Richards,
with view to discredting McManus' value
as witness for the prosecution in the
present case by showing that he acted dis
ness was contradictory.
Secret Service Operative William j.
Burns of Washington, who had charge of
the hunt for the counterfeters as soon as
the plot was discovered, told of the work
he had done in shadowing Jacobs, Kendig
ana hewitt His testimony was practically
d ccrroboration of that of Operative Nc
ManuS.
On cross-eXamination counsel for the de.
tense attempted to show that Burns was
unreliable. but the detective more thar
held his own in the sharp exchanges with
the lawyers. Witness said that Inghan
and hewitt had been under suspicion fol
some time before they approached Nc.
Manus with a proposition to betray the
bureau secrets.
United States Commissioner Edmunds
was called to identify Mr.. Ingham's hand.
writing, and the defense caused some sur.
prise by admitting that the alleged code
was in Mr. Ingham's writing.
John E. Wilkie, chief of the secret SER
vice bureau, corroborated Operatives Nc.
Manus and Burns, and told of the arrest
of the defendants. The same line of de-
fense was adopted with Chief Wilkie as in
the other cases. Mr.. Shields tried to bring
out the fact that witness could not be be-
lieyed.
