BREVITfES.

Secretary Long has ordered Captain
Leary, commanding the San Francisco,
to, proceed to the island of Guam ana
assume the duties of naval governor
of the new acquisition. He will carry
with HIM proclamatio to the natives,
snforming them of the designs of the
United States government towards
them in precisely the terms employed
in the case of the acquisition of Porto
Rico.
Berlin dispatch: 10 an interview
with a correspondent OF the Associated
Press United States Ambassador White
said the relations between the United
States and Germany are cordial apd
reciprocal and that the feeling in
America against Germany is unwar-
ranted. He says the Germans have
no desire to espouse the cause of in
surgents or Spaniards in the east. and
thinks the meat question will be
amicably settled.
Manila advlces say the American
troops remain at Iloilo their trans
ports being anchored close to the
town. They could take the place i'll
twenty minutes if the order was given.
The pro-republic press of the Filipinos
continue to publish int1ammatory
articles against annexation to
the United States. The general situa-
ton is unchanged. Aguinaldo, has
ordered his army to act on. the defen'
sive only.
Roosevelt has written letter to Gen
eral Miles in which he declares that
the canned roast beef was practically
worthless. At the best it was taste
less, at the worst it was nauseatlng.
There was also quantity of beef in
quarters put on board his transport at
tampa, which was fitted by some
process to withstand tropical heat. 1t
at once became p,ltrid and Smelled sc
that it had to be disposed OF for feal
of creating disease.
Manila dispatch: The situation here
| is undoubtedly critical, but Major Gen.
eral Otis has it we'll in hand and there
| is no such certainty of trouble as many
| believe. The rebels are concentrated
on the outskirts of the town and theil
| leaders have issued strict orders that
they shall act only on the defensive
An accident might pfrcipitate trouble,
but the idea Of rebel attack upon
Manila is ridiculous, as the Americans
absolutely control they position.

Long and Short. Men Taken Into Custody
at.Grand Junction.
DIES MONIES, Jan. 20.-An exciting
arrest'was made at Grand junction.
The parties arrested were the long and
short men who have been making

ting off on either side of the ears, and
Immediately jumping into farm
wagon near, made break for. the
country. A posse Of citizens, headed
by the city marshal, was at once
formed, and started in hot pursuit.
The fugitives fred at every one who
came in sight until their ammunition
was exhausted, when they were sur
rounded and taken into custody.
Seventy dollars was found on the per-
son of one of the men. They have
been positively identified as the parties
wanted at Valley Junction for making
the recent hold-ups.

FIGHTING IN SAMOA.
seventy-three Men Killed and Wounded
- @ in One Battle.

In On0 l5aLUics
MELBOURNE. Victoria, Jan. 19.--Ad-
vices received from Samoa say there
has been fighting there over decision
of Chief Justice Chambers in favor OF
Malietoa Tanus, one of the candidates
to the throne III succession to the late
King Malicto. 1t is added that the
native followers of Matatfa, the rival
aspirant to kingship, were victorious.
Seventy-thrcc men were killed and
wounded.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Washington
authorities hold the German represent
tatives at Apia responsible for the
fighting which has taken place in Sa-
moa, as it is apparent that they have
deliberately violated the Berlin agree
ment and are using this influence to
place Mataafa on the throne. The de-
c,sion of Chief Justice Chambers that
the Berlin act disqualified Mataafa is
openly defied by the German consul
When the British and American con-
suls learned of the situation they ad-
iourned the court and locked the build
ing. The German consul demanded
the keys, which were refused him,
whereupon he broke open the doors.
The German municipal president ap-
peared on the balcony and shouted:
II am the supreme court. l am the
chief Justice" The British and Amer
lean consuls and a number of marines
then forced the doors and pushed the
German consul into the street The
two consuls then formally and legally
opened the court and issued q warn
ing against any further interference.
The American consul has issued a
proclamation claiming the Berlin
treaty has the same force as law OF
congress, and that an insult to the
supreme court of Samoa is therefore
equivalent to an insult to the govern
ment at Washington.
The navy department. has prepared
orders for the cruiser Philadelphia to
proceed to Samoa at once to represent
the United States interests there. The
Philadelphia is due at San Diego from
Acapulco. Meanwhile, if any other
vessel more quickly available is found,
one of Dewey's fleet, for instance, it
will be ordered at once to Samoa to
answer the urgent appeal of the
United States consul there. The COM
mander of the vessel will act in con-
formity with the instructions of the
American consul so far as these in
structions are in line with the treaty
of Berlin, which, the United States
contends, must be literally enforced
until amended.

Trust Deed Issued Describes Proposed
Extensions.
DIES MONIES, Jan. 19.-The Chicago,
Milwaukee h st. Paul road has just
disposed Of 81, 10000 worth of bonds
in New York city at ~ per cent. The
bonds were issued in series against
the Des Moines Northern & Western
road, recently acquired by it, and are
secured by trust deed given on the
line from Des Moines to Fonda, and
which will be forwarded to Iowa to be
recorded in few days. This series OF
bonds was given to refund outstanding
bonds of the Des Moines, Northern "
Western assumed by the Milwaukee
when it took control, and which bore
per cent interest. The trust deed,
according to those who have seen IL,
outlines the plans OF the Milwaukee,
road with reference to the Des Moines
Northern & Western and provides for
an additional series of $4,000 900 OF
bonds, which will be a second mort
gage series against the lines OF the
Des Moines Northern & Western now
in operation and first mortgage series
against two proposed extensions.
These extensions, as described in the
deed. are from Fonda to Spencer and
from Boone to point in or near the
town of Leh;gh, in Webster county.
This is taken as positive evidence OF
the intention of the Northern to build
the extension.

President Mckinley Decides to Dispatch
c,.,,.l f,onmissIon to the Islands.

pres,dent Mckinley Decides to Dispatch
spec,al Com mission to the Islands.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-President
Mckinley has decided to send COM
mission to the Philippines to make
thorough study of the situation and
advise him as to what the policy OF
the United States should be regarding
those islands. He has asked these men
to serve on the commission: Rear Adj
miral George Dewey, communicable
chief Of the Asiatic squadron; MAJOR
General E. S. Otis, military governor
of the Philippines; Professor j. u.
Schurman, president of Cornell UhI-
versity; Colonel Charles DENLY, former
minister to China and now a member
as war investigating commission;
,dn G. Worcester, professor in Uni
'versity of Michigan, noted for extern
sive travels in the Philippine group.
Admiral Dewey will be president OF
the commission. tbs now only ques-
ton as to whether those named will
consent to serve and as to the date
when the commission will start for the
Philippines. The administration takes
it for granted that the present senate
will ratify the pending treaty OF peace.
When this is done congress will nat
urally look to the president to outline
a policy of some kind for the future
control of the Philippines. Thus far
the president has refused to commit
himself officially any further than to
urge the ratification of the treaty,
which will give the United States COM
plete sovereignty over the islands, and
to favor military control until the Sit
uation can be studied. President Nc
Kinley is not averse to the Filipinos
having influence if it can be proved
that they are capable of maintaining
it. He is not averse to accepting all
responsibility of maintaining sover-
eighty and control of the Philippines
But he wants TO be sure
of his ground before taking any def
mite stand.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-President
of Cornell university, has
accepted position on the commission
of five which will be appointed to
study the commercial and social prob
lens of the Philippines.

Will BE Censured.
Washington dispatch: President
Mckinley will have in his possession
the full report of the war Investigate
ing commission within the next ten
days. This report, it is asserted, will
not De whitewash Of the army adj
ministration. 1t will be unanimous
upon al! essential points. 1t will de-
clare that the primary trouble is due
to- the lack of proper military organ
ization. 1t will show that Secretary
Alger was weak, especially in his re-
latIon with ajoT General Miles, but
it will not find him responsible for the
camp ''horrors." Subordinate officers
will be blamed for the conditions
which existed with respect to these
matters. Briefly put, the commission
will put blame as follows: Secretary
Alger-For weakness, especially in his
relations with Major General Miles;
for permitting General Miles to go to
Santiago. General Miles-For his
conduct before, during and after the
war; for his selections of certain army
camps: for telling Secretary Alger he
was in the habit of making out his
own orders; for bringing unfonnded
charges that bad beef was supplied to
the troops IN Porto Rico. General
Sfafter-For certain points which he
admitted in his testimony. General
Breckinridge-For leaving his depart
nent to take part in the battle OF
Santiago; for not making more
inspections. General Broolle-For
conditions at Camp Thomas; for lack
of inspections; for failure to carry out
proper sanitary regulations. Congress
For failure to make appropriations
for SmokeleSS powder.
