TO BOYCOTT THE EXPOSITION.

Probable Agitation in Congress to
Withdraw From Paris Bag Show.
Washington. Sept. 13.-It is believed
that when congress assemblies there
will be considerable agitation of a
proposition for this government to
abandon it's participation in the Paris
exposition. 1t is. known that express
sions hostile to the exposition quoted
from Senator Stewart arc very widely
sympathized in, and it is thought that
If the conviction of Dreyfus is per-
mitted to stand there will be very lit
tie friendly feeling for France among
members of either the house or senate.
Such a move, however, would be a
grave one. 1t is pointed out that to
withdraw from participation in the eX-
position will be regarded as an official
insult to France. b.

WAR IN
Griffin and Philpot Factions MT 1t
Again.

Again.
London. Ky. Sept. 13.-The opening
of war between the Griffin and Philpol
factions in Clay county began last
night. The house of Widow Chadwell,
wife of Evan Caldwell, brother of the
deputy sheriff, Dave Chadwell, the
leader of the Griffin faction, was fired
into from all sides. She escaped by
throwing herself on the floor. All the
cattle, hogs and dogs We're killed and a
notice was posted on her door, giving
her twenty-four hours to leave or be
killed. 1t was done by a body of horse
mel whom the Griffins say were Phil
pots. The Jail here which has two
Grittins in it. is heavily guarded by
men with Winchesters. A rumor is
also current that a battle was fought
yesterday in Clay county, killing four
men and w%ounding seven. The rumor
locates the battle on Redbird creek,
eighteen miles from Manchester. There
have been several killings here of late,
and the battle may have been either
between the Markums and Roberts or
the SiZemores and Asheres, all factions
being at war with each other.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Sept. 10. =
All precautions for avertlng accidents

him retained in his present command.
Last week they We're deeply discour-
aged, and one, a high official Of the war
department, openly admitted that he
believed popular clamor" would result
in his friends recall and the assign
ment of Gen. Miles or Gen. Merritt to
Manila. The prediction is now being
confidently made by Gen. Otis adj
mirers that he will be permitted to
demonstrate what he can do with a
large army before being censured for
his failure to make more progress dur
ing the last campaign. 1t is impossible,
owing to the conflicting interests, at
work. to state positively how he con-
test for supremacy will terminate.
Gen. Miles friends are as confident as
are those of Gen. Otis, but the drift OF
feeling now seems to have turned in
favor of the latter. Plans have been
adopted at the department, however,
under which Gen. Lawton and Gen.
Macarthur are each to be given n re-
sponsible command of several divisions
and they will begin operations just as
soon as the rainy season is considered

The president has directed that the
navy cooperate with the army in the

it's work will be generally confined to
blockading. A few of the smaller gun
boats will, however, be sent as far
inland as the conditions will permit.
The marines, too, are to play an impor-
tant part in the operations in the vicin-
ity of Cavite. Within n short time
nearly 700 marines will be on hand in
the Philippines and they will be as
signas to duty in the southern part Of
