Settlement of War.

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct 2S.-Information was
received here today from Ortiz, state Of
Sonora, Mex, stating that detachment
of Mexican troops had arrived here, having
in charge twenty five Yaqui Indian prison
ers whom they were taking to Guaymas to
be placed in prison pending settlement
of the war.
Hitherto the Mexican forces have been
giving out the Information that they were
taking no prisoners nor would they take
any, as they proposed to kill all the In
dians as fast as they came upon them.
1t is reported that these prisoners were
captured in a skirmsh with Indians near
Suharipa Mex, during which several MeXi-
can soldiers were wounded. 1t is also re-
ported that two were killed and one or two
taken prisoners by the Indians.
Immediately following this skirmish, which
was somewhat in the nature of surprise
party to the Indians, the main body of the
Indians retreated to the mountains north
west of Suharipa and are now hiding in the
mountain Businesses.

today In various newspapers of what pur-
ported to be an interview with Former Sec

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. %, 1892
Charles Dick, Esq, My Dear Sir: l can

OF Judge Nash as governor Of Ohio He not

republican for that position, but is specially
qualified to perform the duties of governor

LONDON, Oct. 2S.-The large number OF
British officers killed in the battles which
have already taken place in Natal has
brought out strenuous protests from many
quarters against the ancient custom of Brit
ish officers in refusing to take cover when
under fire. From figures at Glencoe it is
apparent that out of every four men
killed was an officer, whereas the organiza
tion exists upon the principle that to every
twenty five men there is one officer 1t Is
evident that if the same ratio of mortality
Is kept up the British forces will become
seriously under -ofEicered. Among the en-
listed men at Glencoe the proportion Of
killed to wounded was 80 to 156, while teli
officers were killed to twenty-five officers
wounded. The difference in the percentage
leads to the conclusion that many Of the
officers were hit more than once and kept
on leading their men after the first wourd.
Emperor Williams recent criticism Of the
British Iiicers' retuaGl to take cover is now
frequently quoted. The feeling in the army
itself is that though the regulations do not
say the officers must not lie down, 1t is such
an old established principle that it would
take a brave man to inaugurate a change,
and the adage of the British soldier, Follow
wherever an officer leads, is held still to be
intensely true, for though the officers believe
the personnel or the army is as good as ever,
it has been the history of Great Britain that
they at the same time, maintain that
Tommy Atkins needs more leading than
any man in the world, so the epilling Of
Great Britain's best blood is likely to con-
tinue for the present.
Realize What War Means.
The proportion of the casualties as a
whole has caused thrill of horror and SYM
pathy throughout Great Britain, for the peo-
pie now begin to realize what fight with
a civilized enemy means. Old soldiers point
out that at the Alma. one of the bloodlest
battles In Great Britain's annals, the casu-
alties totaled upon per cent, whereas in
the recent Boer engagements they consid-
erably exceed that figure.
General Whites strategy and the eXecu-
tion OF his movements are warmly praised
and 1t is said at the clubs that General Sir
Redvers Butler will have to hurry up or
General White will get peerage first Gen.
eral White represents the Indian element in
the British army and those who have served
in India have always maintained that the
commander there had a more important post
than the commander in chief himself AS
General Lord Roberts was considered too
old for another campaign, Generals White,
Symons and Hunter were sent as sop to
the Indian faction, for General Butler has
always been more or less antagonistc to
General Roberts and his partlsans.
Regarding European Intervention, Great
Britain's plans to meet such an emergency
continue. The Journal de Geneve publishes
a dispatch from Constantinople saying that

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-President Mccall
Of the New York Life Insurance company,
when interviewed in New York today, said
on the subject of the readmission of the
company to Prussia that negotiations had
been pending for year or more. In 1895
the American companies, with the exception
OF the Germania Life, were compelled by
the rigorous exactions Of the Prusslan laws
to withdraw or give up their concessions
for Prussia. 1t was believed at the time
that the rules of the government were Sc
we're and in conflict with the methods fol-
lowed in this country. The dispute ended
by the enforced departure of the Prussan
| companies authorized to transact business
| in New York.
Last year." said Mr.. Mccall, II commits
stoned Second Vice President Perkins, who
is now in Berlin, to secure rehearing for
us and to assure the Prussian government
that we were ready to comply with its re-
quirements in every respect. Acting on this
request the minister of the interior appointed
| royal commission to examine our affairs
and standing in the United States and the
| investigation was made this year.
"The royal commission made a favorable
| report and the government actuaries, after
| a thorough investigation of our policy forms
and returns and the liability Hereunder
! Joined in the recommendation. Vice Presi-
| dent Perkins, in his cable to me, states that
| the minister of the interior today reported
| on all the facts to the Prussian cabinet and
| that unanimous vote for our readmission
| followed.
| '"The principal requirements from life
insurance company under the Prussian law
are:
! "First-A life insurance company shall
not hold stock In private corporation.
"Second-A life insurance company shall
| limit its total management expenditures 70
sum not in excess of that provided for ex-
penses in its premium income,
"Third-A life insurance company issuing
| policies in which a division of surplus is de-
ferred beyond the second year shall SO keep
its books that it can know how much of its
! total surplus called is derived from the
policies issued in each year, and those
| amounts be shown as liabilities in its reports
to the Prussian minister of the interior.
I'VE have agreed to carry out each and
every one OF these requirements. In bring
| ing about the change in Prussian insurance
matters, Secretary of State Hay and Am
massador White at Berlin have aided very
materially Superintendent Payne OF the
insurance departments has rendered excel
! lent service also, by permitting the royal
| commission to have free access to his de-
partment records and in urging a better
understanding between the authorities Of
! this state and Prussia. Baron Won Mumm,
imperial minister for Germany at Washing
ton, has also rendered efficient service and
has been most interested in securing a set
! tlement OF all difficulties"
President Mccall further said this Is the
! first instance in which such a commission
has ever been sent TO the United States in
behalf OF a foreign government and 1t con-
tains a suggestion with regard to commercial
questions that arise between governments
