WORDS OF PRAISE FOR OTIS
Colonel ChiIders of Tennessee vOIun-
teers Respects General as States
man and Soldier.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12.-ColoneI Chill
ders OF the Tennessee regiment. which az
rived from the Philippines Saturday said
1 have very high regard for General
Otis and his ability as a soldier and states
man. He has held a most difficult position
and l think he has handled it we'll. OF
course, he could have slashed in and laid the
islands waste with fire and sword, but to do
this without an effort first to show the ma
tives that the United States wished to give
them fair, just and liberal government
would have forever prevented amicable re-
lations and 1t would have become question
OF determination and recolonzation. The
islands are too far away for such policy,
even II humanity and self-interest did not
forbid
In my opinion force of $4,000 to 1OO,-
900 men is Leeded to promptly and success
fully settle the question. This force will
have TO be retained until those who are
friendly and take the oath of allegiance 10
the United States are strong enough to pro-
tect themselves, otherwise the natives will
come down from the mountains, destroying
thu lives and property OF all who are trait
orr. as they would call them. l think local
affairs should, as far as possible, be left in
the hands Of the natives"
Corporal L. B. Price Of the Tennessee vol
unteers was killed shortly before the regl-
ment left the islands under peculiar circum-
stances. He was subject to fits of somnam-
buism and was in the habit OF sleeping with
a red cloth around his head to protect 1t
from insects. One night while asleep he
wandered by the line and as he was return
ing he was mistaken for Filipino by a
member of the Sixth infantry, who shot

STRIKE SITUATION THE SAME
No Change in the Condition of Things
at the Union Pacific
Cheyenne Shops.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 12.-(Special Tel
egram. )-The Union Pacific shop strike
situation here has not changed today and
it is expected matters will remain as they
are at least until Tuesday. At that time
1t Is expected the officers Of the International
Association of Machnists at Washington,
d. c., to whom the matter has been re-
ferred by the local lodge, will report upon
the legality of the strike, and the further
action of the strikers will depend upon
the character of this report 1t is doubted
by some Of the men whether the association
will sanction the strike, as under the rules
of the association the matter should have
been referred to the officers of the aesoca-
tion and an authorization to strike secured
before quitting work. If the strike, how
ever is sanctioned, it will be continued and
with little hope of settlement. Superin-
tendent of Motive Power j. II. Mcconnell
is still here and expects to remain until
some definite conclusion of the trouble is
reached The strike is being conducted
very quietly and there has been no dis
order on the part of the men or interference
with those machinists who have continued
working.

MEDlLL WILL CASE SETTLED
Family Contention for Patrimony is
Adjudicated to the Disad-
vantage of the Heir.

TOPEKA, Kan. Nov. 12-The state su-
preme court has confirmed the judgment of
the Leavenworth county district court in the
Medill will contest case involving an estate
valued at about 100000. James Medill, the
testator, was member of the early Kansas
legislature, He left most OF his estate to
his SON. Sherman Medill, now state egis-
lator, about $50 900 to his daughter Nina and
$4,000 to a granddaughter, Fairy Hollings-
worth, The will was contested on the
ground that the son had brought undue in
fiuence to bear on his father and that the
latter was not in his right mind when the
will was executed
During the trial much bitterness was
shown on the part of Miss Medill against
her brother, She finally was taken i'll with
lung fever and went to Colorado, where she
died. Shortly before her death she effected
reconciliation with her brother and named
Fairy Hollingsworth as her heir. By the
courts decision Sherman Medll will receive
about $780, 900 instead of $4,000, as intended

DR.. Won Miguel Russfe- Minister OF finance,
had long conference today with Emperor
William. 1t appears that one Of the sub
jects discussed during the vst of Emperor
Nicholas last week was the raising of an
other Russian loan in Germany, Russia
having failed to effect one anywhere else
in Europe. This explains why DR.. Won
Miguel was present Wednesday evening,
along with Count Won Buelow and Count
Muravieff, the German and Prussian foreign
ministers, at the Interview between the
czar and the kaiser
Emperor William, 1t is definitely asserted,
made no promise to the czar in the matter,
leaving 1t understood that whether the
German government would favor another
Russian loan here or not depended largely
upon DR.. Won Miquelis answer today, pre-
pared at Emperor Williams request
In the meantime DR.. Won Miguel consulted
with the leading German financiers, nearly
all of when discouraged the proposal, as
they have been reliably informed that the
trans-Siberian railroad is likely to prove
far more expensive than Is generally sur
missed. Moreover, Russian financial crash

imperative that the canal be built 1t would
then enable us 20 mobilize our fleets on

SLUMBERING FIRES IN ORIENT
Uneasy Feeling Exists Regarding the
Relationship Between Russia
and Japan.

LONDON, Nov. 13.-The Shanghai corre-
spondent of the Daily Mail says: IAN un-
easy feeling regarding the relations of Rus
STA and Japan is spreading here. There
is no doubt that Japan is practically allied
with China, despite the degradation which
the empress dowager inflicted upon the
Chinese ENJOYS to Japan on their recent
return. This was merely tactical move
with view to appeasing Russia.
"A large Russian fleet intends wintering
in Nagasakl harbor and some remonstrance
by Japan is probable. Prince Henry of Prus-
sia. the commander of the German squadron
in the North Pacific, is watching the progress
of events. He recently declared in the
course of conversation that the Japanese
army was in splendid condition from the
European point of view.''
The Daily Mail says: I'VE learn there is
considerable censorship on cablegrams from
China"

STRUGGLE WITH INSANE MAN
st. Louis Woman Has q horrible Time
with Her Crazy Hus-

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 12-In the grasp of her
insane husband Mrs. Ralph Reif of 1886 CAL
lfoTnla avenue battled for her life from 7
p. m. last Saturday night till a. m. Sun
day morning. When help finally came Mrs.
Reif was SO weak she could scarcely spea k.
She had been kept a prisoner by her hus-
band in their third story fiat for three days
For two days of this time she was without
food. There was no one on the same floor
but the couple. When she ATTEMPTED to
leave the room her husband would seize her
and bring her back.
"A tenant on the floor below hearing the
disturbance finally called on a passing DO
liceman, who summoned help and then hast
ened to the woman's relief. Mufied sounds
and woman's means could be heard as the
party reached the third floor.
Forcing open the door Mrs Ref was found
lying on the bed with he husbands hands
clutching her throat. She was struggling
feebly, but was unable to offer much re-
sstance. Her husband retained his hold
until he was pulled away. Reif was taken
to the police station and thence to the city
hospital, where he was placed in one of the
cells of the observation ward. He had been
confined in the insane asylum for several
months. Three weeks ago he was released
at tho request of his wife, as it was thought
that he was cured.
Ref is brcklayer. He and his wife
have been married two years, but have no
children. They lived happily, Mrs. Reif
states, until some months ago. Last spring
Reif fell from a building and received an
injury to his brain. Shortly afterward his
mind gave way and he was confined in the
insane asylum. Mrs. Ref is head millincr
In one of the leading stores here.
Mrs. Ref said that she had been trying
to make herself heard ever since o'clock
Saturday night, at which time her husband
became violent. He told her that If she
attempted to call for assistance he would
kill her
The insane man had been quiet on Friday
night and on Saturday slept nearly all day
When he awoke in the evening he was in
dangerous mood and from then until she
was rescued Mrs. Ref spent fearful time

CAPTAIN IS KILLED AT SEA
Sailor md Steward Get Schooner
Under Way and Head Toward the
Novn Scotia Coast.

ST. JOHNS, N. B., Nov. ia murder
at sea on the schooner j. B. Vandusen of
New York was made known today by the
receipt of message from the vessels mate
to the owners agent in this city. 1t stated
that Captain Baisey had been stabbed by
sailor named Maxwell and had afterward
fallen overheard and had died in the ship S
boat, which had put off to rescue him. AS
for the schooner, it had disappeared in the
darkness under conditions which made 1t
seem probable that the murderer and the
steward the only men left on board had
gotten the schooner under way and headed
it in toward the Nova Scotia coast.
The schooner left this port lumberladen
for New York late yesterday afternoon.
The tragedy was evidently enacted in the
Bay of Funday within few hours of the
clearing of land.
Captain Basley belonged in this city.
Maxwell, who according to the telegram
did the stabbing is also a st. Johns man.
