try, and private of that company were
killed and six other members of the regi-
ment were wounded near Caloocan last

ment were sent to the relief of their COM
rades and drove the Filipinos into Caloocan,
penetrating to the very heart Of the town.
Meanwhile the gunboats shelled the
suburbs. General Otis finally recalled the
troops, but the natives, misunderstanding
the retreat, failed to take advantage of it.
The outskirts Of the town were burned.

EAGAN LET OFF EASY.
The Generals Sentence COMMITTED to
Suspension for Six Years.

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE President
to-day caused to be promulgated the SEN
tence in the case Of Gen. Charles P. Eagan
The court-r3artial sentence was dismissal
from the army and the President has COM
muted this to six years suspension from
duty, which covers the remainder of the
time prior to General Eagan's retirement, in
January, 1905. Following is the text of the
order of the President:
THE accused, after trial by court-mar-
tial composed of officers of high rank and
distinguished service, has been found guilty
or conduct unworthy OF an officer holding a
commission of the United States and OBJ
noXious, in the highest degree, to the
discipline and good order of the military eS-
tablishment. Such behavior is especially de-
serving of condemnation in an officer hold
ing high rank in the army and charged with
the performance of difficult and important
administrative duties in a time of great
public emergencies and from whom when
subjected to adverse criticism, unusual
degree OF restraint and constant and un-
falling self-control are confidently expected.
The proceedings and findings and sem
tence in the case of Brig. Gen. Charles p
Eagan, commissary general of subsistence
United States army, are, therefore, ap-
proved In view, however, of his gallant
conduct in battle, upon more than one oc-
casion which merited and has received the
warm commendation of his superiors and
OF his long and honorable record of service
extending over q period SURPRISING in dura-
tion that usually allotted to a generation;
having regard, also, to the mitigating cir
cumstances which were developed during
the trial of the case, and in Difference to
the recommendation to Clemency submitted
in his behalf, the sentence imposed by the
court is commuted to suspension from rank
and duty for six years.
WILLIAM MKINLEY"
1t was stated by the adjutant general that
General Eagan's suspension carries him to
within a few days of his retirement under
the age limit. He will be reinstated in time
to retire with the regular rank and pay pro-
vided in such cases. The sentence Of sus-
pension according to legal officers of the
department, does not deprive General Eagan
of any part of his pay but as the sentence
reads without rank and duty" he loses his
allowances, which include communication of
quarters, rations and fuel and his horse al
lowance. This is quite large financial
item

So far as the Cars prescript was con-
cerned Lord Salisbury said no one could
doubt the purity and humanity Of the EN-
perors motives 81 should heartily rejoice"
he continued, 'ff the conference achieved
humber aim and If by the steady use Of the
principle Of arbitration we might be able
to diminish number of the causes by which
war is produced. If by humane legislation
we could also diminish the horrors of war
we would render an immeasurable service to
humanity. Meanwhile, we must follow the
example of other nations and be prepared
for war. I do not believe this is imminent;
but the causes of war still subsist, and while
doing our best in the blessed mission of
peace, we must maintain the position of Sc
curity which past generations have given
us and which we hope to keep"
Lord Salisbury remarked that he frequent
ly envied a nation possessing a committee
on foreign relations like the United States-a
committee which could secretly receive ex-
plantations that ministers were only too glad
to give. But as Great Britain was without
that feature of parliamentary government
it would be impossible for him to give the
noble lord Carl of Kimberly all the infor-
Induon ne desired regarding foreign affairs.
The agreement between Germany and Great
Britain, however, was OF a character favor
able to friendship between the two nations
and to the right of all concerned, as well
as to the peace of the world. But he (he
premier) would not be doing his duty if he
gave further details as to the stipulations
which for the present required no action on
the part of Great Britain. The address was
then agreed to.
Sir Henry Campbell -Bannermans debut
as a leader was regarded as exceedingly
promising. He made a most effective
speech and was congratulated heartily by
members of both sides Of the House. The
editorials in the morning papers tomorrow
will be unstinted in praise of his conduc-.
Mr.. Dillon's resignation was somewhat of
a surprise to his party, but is generally ap-
proved. An attempt VIII be made 70 induce
Thomas Sexton, anti-ParneIite to re-enter
politics as the Nationalist leader. Although
Mr.. Dillon has been virtually ousted by
Timothy Healy it is conceded that the
is quite impossible as q leader Gor The
time being Sir Thomas Henry Esmnnde
anti-Parnellite member from West Kerry
and senior whip of the party, will preside at
its meetings. He is not unlikely to be
elected, as he is persona grata with the
Healeyites. Edward Blake, member for
South Longford, and John Redmond, men,
Der for Waterford are also menlioned as
possible leaders.

THE PEACE TREATY.
Spain Notified of Its RatfficatioD
Through the French Embassy.

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE State De-

House that the United States Senate had
formally ratified the peace treaty yesterday.
Secretary Hay Immediately sent a notice to
that effect TO NJ. Thiebaut, the charge Of the
French embassy here, with the request that
ne communicate the fact to the Spanish
government. This course is necessary. as
direct diplomatic intercourse has not vet
been resumed between the United States and

Duke of Ccnnaught Is Heir to the
Throne OF the Little Kingdom.


LONDON, Feb. THE death of young
Prince Alfred, only son Of the Duke and
Duchess of Saxe-Coburg. and Queen Vic
toria's grandson, carries with it conse-
quences which may not be Immediately ap-
preciated iii America. Through this death
the Duke Of Connaught becomes heir to the
reigning dukedom of Saxe-Coburg. Not
only by heredity is this so. but also by a
special succession act arranged during the
lifetime of the late Duke Ernest of Sake
Coburg. 1t is well known that the Duke of
Connaughts ambition is to become COM
mander-in-chief of the British army. Now
he will have to choose between this and
reigning as German sovereign. If he
elects to remain an Englishman he will re-
nounce the Saxe-Coburg succession in favor
of his eldest son, Prince Arthur 1t is pos
sible, however, that the Duchess of Con-
naught, who is a daughter of Prince Fred
erick Charles, the req prince, may find the
ambition of becoming reigning sovereign
in her own country irresistible. The present
Duke Alfred of Saxe-Coburg is known to
be in very bad health. Therefore, the ne
cessity for choice may not be long de-
layed

Crazy Coyote =. Large.

a coyote supposed to be suffer
ing from hydrophobia terrorized
the settlers living FIVE miles west
OF Fowler last Friday. The mad
wild animal first appeared at the
ranch OF Joseph Harris, where it
frightened the occupants of the
house by chasing the dogs about
the premises. Then it took an
eastern course, stopping at nearly
every ranch within distance of
two miles, and was finally killed by
j. +. Anderson. All symptoms
indicated an advanced stage of
hydrophobia. Great excitement
prevails among the settlers in the
neighborhood through which the
crazy brute passed, and all domes-
tic animals which might have been
bitten have been isolated awaiting
the outcome.
