of protest he wrote to the secretary in
this connection, and there was consid.
erable excitement over the matter al
the time. This is said to have been
entirely made up by the two men after
Roosevelt's return from the war, but
Roosevelt never approved of the man.
a2ement OF the war department.
Roosevelt, in his letter to the cabi
net officer, was very severe in his criti-
cism of the general course of the wav
department, and insisted that the ad-
ministration could not afford to be held
responsible for Alger, nor to continue
the military policy in the Philippines
or in Cuba. He urged that vigorous
and effective operations be insisted on.
This letter was shown to the president
at once, as it was intended to be, and
fiom this was started the renewal of
the demand for Alger's retirement that
resulted in his resignation.
When the president sent for Roose-
welt, as he did some time before Alger
resigned, it is stated that the object in
calling him to the White House was
to talk over this letter and try to reach
some understanding that would avoid
hasty action in the matter. 1t was
supposed, after this interview between
the president and Governor Roosevelt,
that the whole matter would go for
two or three months before final action,
and the immediate and sudden resigna-
tion of Alger is attributed to friction
between him and General Corbin, be-
cause Alger desired to copy certain
documents in the department for his
personal use,, an act which Cobrin is
said to have successfully resisted by an
appeal to the president.

Invited to Tacoma.

Tacoma, Wash., July Sl.-Presiden,
G. S. Mellen, of the Northern Pacific
railroad, in talking today of the rail.
road situation on the coast, said:
1--WE have offered the o. r. & N.
which is in the Union Pacific system,
to let them run into Tacoma over our
tracks from Portland, and to give them
terminals here. so far as we have any
say in the matter, at very reasonable
terms. They may accept our PROPOSE
tion. The terms are entirely satisfac-
tory. If they are not, we will make
them satisfactory. 1t would be to our
interest. as we'll as theirs, to let
them run in over our tracks, rather
than build an additional line. We
would rather divide the cost and ex.
pense of maintaining one line than to
pay all the cost ourselves The traf.
tic between here and Portland for manv
years can all be done over the one line,
and not be crowded: AS for terms, we
will make terms that are satisfactory. {"

A SOLDIERS TALE.
Diversions on the Battle Field When
the Fight Was Raging.

During the tlrst engagement while
the company was firing at will into the
woods ahead, says Sergeant King in the
Minneapolis (Kan) Messenger, for
lorn water buffalo, the Philippine
beast of burden, meanderad into the
rice field directly in front of the line.
The writer Immediately directed his
fire toward the buffalo, with no appar-
ent result. Afterwards, during a lull
in the firing, we shamefully confessed
to having wasted our strength in this
ignoble manner and were surprised to
learn that every man had done like.
wise. AT all events, the beast made
good its escape, for it patiently plod.
ded ahead until the timber swallowed
it up. During the charge at Calocan,
a frenzied pig, OF diminutive size,
dashed from beneath a bamboo hut
and, apparently, judging that all the
commotion was for his benefit, thought
best to retire. AS the pig dashed past
the writer, we gently assisted with a
shove from the butt of our gun and
thought no more of it for some time.
Afterward, upon glanoing to the rear,
we saw four or five soldiers in hot pur
suit of the same poor little swine. 1t
is laughable, even in times OF peace, to
watch another man chase a hog, but
when men forsake their places, forget
the ioar of conflict. the hum of bullets,
the shouts of the victors, and the walls
of the wounded, to grapple with an
eight-pound shoat, the scene becomes
ludicrous in the extreme. We took the
trouble to learn that the pig got away.
At Calocan the rebels had mounted
two monstrous muzzle-loading guns
captured in former times from the
Spanish. They attempted to fire one
of these, with direful results. The
Americans collected the mains of 20
rebels killed by the explosion of the
gun. The insurgents had not the cour-
age TO fire the remaining cannon, which
was loaded and primed when Calocan
was captured. The natives had loaded
the gun with a complete curiosity shop.
The cannon was filled with scissors,
knives, coal, pieces of brick, nails,
bolts, thermometer, horseshoe, a
car link, a piece of rubber hose, and, to
crown it all, a large quantity of hoop
iron had been driven into the muzzle
so tightly that it was necessary to file
it before the charge could be drawn. A
double dose of powder was found, and
also quantity of dynamite. No Won
der the other cannon exploded.

FRICTION WITH GEN. CORB|N

That Letter and the Resulting Confer

and Cuba as Well.

Washington, July 3l.-The interest
ing statement is made in connection
with the departure of Alger from the
cabinet that Governor Roosevelt, of
New York, wrote a letter urging his
retirement, and also that General Otis
be relieved in the Philippines and
Brooke be succeeded by Wood as mill
tary governor of Cuba. This letter was
written to member of the cabinet
prior to the last general outburst of
antiAlger talk, some weeks before his
actual resignation.
There was friction between Roose
velt and Ager, in connection with the
famous round-robin Roosevelt partici-
pated in getting up, while he was with
the rough riders at Santiago. Secretary
Alger criticised Roosevelt for letter

The wreck, which occurred shortly

cloudburst and storm which lasted two
hours. A section of the bank fell on
the eastbound track directly in front Of
the freight train. Several trees went
down with the rocks and earth, the
freight cars and engine turning over
directly across the westbound tracks Of
the Erie road. Sixty freight cars con.

rallied, and the debris was piled up on
the westbound tracks just as the Chi

nine OF the freight cars were burned
