other Important Witnesses in the Ad-
ANS Case VIII Also he Examined.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-Ths will probably
be one of the most interesting weeks in the
history of the inquest into the death Of
Mrs. Kate j. Adams. Assistant District At
tOrney Osborne expects to obtain reliable
information from Mrs. Florence Rogers,
Mrs. Roland b. Molineux, Barnet's two pro-
fessional nurses and other women who in
Cne way or another have been connected
with the Krickerbocker Athletic Club. AS
sistant District Attorney Osborne acknowl-
edges he has in his possession a number of
letters of a more or less threatening nature
which are said to have been sent by Cornish
to certain persons whom Cornish disliked.
The assistant district attorney considers
these letters important, in view of the fact
that Cornish on the witness stand made the
declaration that he had no enemies that he
knew of.
Cornish arrived at the Knickerbocker
Athletic Club from Boston shortly after 10
o'clock tonight. He refused to be seen,
sending out word that he had nothing to
say Cornish will be put on the stand
again just as soon as the district attorney is
able to gather together number of threads
which he considers essential to the proper
questioning of Cornish

originated in question of taxes.
DETROIT, Feb. 19.-Admiral Lord Charles
Beresford, en- route from Chicago to the
East, was seen in passing through Detroit
tonight in reference to the battle reported
at Tailen-Wan between Russians and Chi
nese. Lord Charles, after reading the AS
sociated Press dispatch, said that such a
battle was only what he had been expecting
for some time It's effect, he believed,
would be to shake the Chinese government
more than anything that had occurred, and
he asserted that trade would also suffer as
a result of it. AS to the statement that the
origin of the trouble concerned question
of taxes, his lordship said he did not under
stand how that could be the case, unless the
Russians had very recently begun taxing
the Chinese. He thought it more likely that
the Russians may have taken Chinese land
for military purposes and not paid what
the natives considered full value for it.
Talen-Wan, he said, is about one hundred
miles from Port Arthur the Russian coaling
station and headquarters in China. In and
about the two places is a Russian army of
from 14,OOO to 29,0OO. The Chinese army in
Manchuria, in which province both places
are situated consists of about 1900 men, of
whom, however, but 5000 are sufficiently
drilled to be of any use in actual warfare.
The rest Lord Charles described as coolies
who possessed military Jackets The Chi
nese, however, have recently shipped a
quantity of arms and ammunition into that
locality so that their forces may now be in
q better condition. his lordship said, than
when he was there. The natives of Man
churia province he described as fine, sturdy
people and the best of traders, being thor
oughly honest. AS the Chinese never diff
ferentiate between foreigners, considering
all alike, Lord Charles said this incident
will work as much harm to British and
American interests as to Russia. Russia
has obtained such a hold in Manchuria,'
said his lordship, that 1 consider it ex-
tremely improbable that, no matter what
may be the final disposition of China, Rus
sia will never be driven out"

TO SAVE APPRENTICES
Why Sale of Beer on War Ships Was
stopped by Secretary Long.

BOSTON, Feb. BIN regard to the recent
order of the Navy Department prohibiting
the sale of beer on ships of the navy, Sec
retary Long, in an interview to-day, said
that the order was issued principally for
the protection of apprentice boys in the
service. 1T is not true" he said, that
any society outside the service caused the
issuing of the order. 1t was done at the So
licitation of naval officers themselves, who
were actuated by sense of duty to the
service. The sale Of beer on shipboard was
regarded by many of them as an evil and
they sought to abate it. The matter was
first suggested to the department by Cap
tain Folger of the cruiser New Orleans
After his return from the war he wrote a
letter in which he fully explained the evils
which, in his judgment. resulted from per
mitting the sale Of liquor on shipboard.
This letter l referred to a number of other
captains. Among them were Captains
Barker Higginson Crownnshield and Brad
ford. After a careful consideration of the
matter they reported, majority of them
favoring the absolute prohibition of beer
and liquor on board. Then it was that the
order was issued. The department felt that
required such an order"
In conclusion the secretary said that the
sale of beer was a temptation, and as many
men in the navy can get along without It
unless it is placed before them the depart
ment thought it best to remove this tempta-
ton.

likely that the natives of the locality will
harm them, it is feared that others from
distant provinces might wreak vengeance at
their expense.

enemy made no demonstration and all is

Guerrilla. Tactics.

MANILA, Feb. %. 1910 a. m.-The enemy
have apparently realized the hopelessness of
attacking the American position and are oc-
cupied chiefly by occasional sharpshooting
from the jungle whenever feasible. Fortu-
nately their ignorance of the use of sights
minimizes the effect of their guerrilla tac-
tics.
The retirement of General Kings advance
posts upon Son Pedro Macati has evidently
been construed by the rebels as a sign of
weakness, as they pressed forward along
both sides of the river, persstently harassing
the occupants of the town. Last night the
rebels poured volley after volley into San
Pedro Macau from the brush on the adia-
cent ridge, but fortunately without effect

WANTS INDEMNITY.
Brother of Frank Pears Seeking Rep
aratiOn from Honduras.

PITTSBURG, Feb. 19.-The Post to-mor-
row will say: I'm the executive mansion at
Washington this morning there will be re-
corded a protest the result of which may
lead to serious trouble between two nations
the United States and the republic of
Honduras. The murder of Frank Pears, the
Pittsburg man, in Honduras on the night
of Jan. 81 will undoubtedly lead to most en-
barrassing complications unless the little
republic shall apologize land at the same
time deliver up a great amount of gold as
fine for the foul murder committed. Backed
by Senators Foraker of Ohio, and Quay, of
Pennsylvania, as well as many others of
national fame in politics, also armed with
personal letters from State Senator c. l..
Magee, Harry b. Pears, of Pitasburg,
brother of the murdered man, left for Wash
ington last night to lay his case before the
government OF the United States. Yesterday
mornings mail brought to Harry Pears
letter from his brother Ben in Honduras,
which set forth in exhaustive detail all re
garding the killing of Frank Pears. The
case is far more revolving than had even
been feared by Mr.. Pears who kAesS the
country well. It seems a case of most cold
blooded murder of an American by the
ders of a hot-headed new military governor.
MI. FedIs VIII lay all lHe lactS before fTeS-
ident Mckinley to-day, and will request
two things.
First, that the government of the United
States demand instantly the removal from
office and punishment of NJ. "A. Bonilo mill
tary commandant and governor of the Dis
trict of San Pedro.
Second, that an indemnity not less than
100000 in gold be paid by the government
of Honduras to the relatives of Frank
Pears
