NEW DEPARTMENT OF
GOVERNMENT NEEDED
A"secretaryof Colonial Affairs and
Foreign Commerce Deemed
a Necessity.
TO MEET THE NEW CONDITIONS
Lack of a Central Head for Affairs
of Our New Possessions Causes
Confusion--Cabinet Menu
ber,s Views.

AEsMa7NHEtHE .E-FLg N-arE.L rtM -
Washington, June a5.-A depart
ment of colonial affairs and foreign
commerce, a new executive branch of
the government, is deemed by the ad-
ministration absolutely necessary to
meet the new conditions which CON
front the United States as a result Of
the war with Spain. !
The word colonial is repugnant
for political reasons to some members
Of the cabinet because it smacks. of
imperialism, and it may be that some
other title will be adopted. The mean
ing, however, will be the same.
Preliminary to recommendations to
congress on this subject, data is now
being compiled concerning the con-
troll OF colonies by foreign powers and
the extension of our commerce into
foreign fields, and members of the cab
met and subordinate officials of the adj
mnistration are giving much time and
thought to the details Of the proposed
new department.. l
American consuls On duty in colon
les belonging to foreign powers, es-
pecially those of Great Britain, are to
be called upon for full reports upon a
list of questions now preparing for
submission to them. Robert p. por-
ter, who is looked upon as a probable
head of the proposed new cabinet Of
flee when created, will be consulted
concerning the plans for extending
foreign commerce, which is to become
q feature of the new department..
President Mcllinley's policy in re-
gard to the future form of government
for the Philippines and Cuba is still
underlined, but regardless of what fu-
ture developments may bring forth as
to u attitude toward the islands, he
and the henderson, the cabinet fully
~anpreciate thatAthe military govern
.meIftssjn al afsonr dependencies must
give way to ciiyil government as speed
lily as possible. Preliminary to the es-
tablishment of civil sgcxernment, the
cabinet has concluded sIitat there
should be a new5civil department. With
a cabinet officer at its headkto inautgn-
rate and have control of the snewag gov
ernments which sooner or later must
be formed.

Cornell's Side.

Auditor Cornell has this 10 say in
regard to the case:
"The governor has appointed an in
vestigating committee, as likewise has
the legislature, and the public will be
advised of the full details in due time.
l am not stunning the investigations;
On the contrary l court it. Nothing
has occurred about this Office during
the present administration that will
not stand the test of the judgment
day. If any examiner has held up
insurance companies, it has been done
without my knowledge or consent and
l do not recall any complaint ever
having been made except by the A.
o. u. W., and as l 10Y remember this
it was simply a denial of our right to
examine them at all. They have never
paid anything for the examination. l
have never seen the Palm letter and
never heard of it except by rumor in
the past few days. The first absolute
and definite knowledge that ever came
to me was through the columns of
the Bee. My letter dlscharging Mr..
Lichty speaks for itself:
Lincoln, Feb. 10, 1s09.-SamueI Lich-
ty, Chief Clerk in the Insurance De-
partment-Sir: From circumstan-
ces and facts that have come under
my observation from time to time and
especially during the month just
passed, l am convinced that you have
not been faithful and have not exer-
| cised your best judgment in perform
ing the duties Of your Office.
Without authority of law and with
out my knowledge and consent you
| collected from fraternal societies $500,
which you returned under my direc.
ton. You have taken from my mail
a letter addressed to me and marked
personal and have not advised me
OF its contents.
You have, contrary TO my instruc-
tions. withheld agents certificates un-
der the pretense that you knew more
about the revenue laws than did the
treasury department. You h ave tried
to favor certain insurance companies
contrary to law, and at the same time
have not acquainted me with your ac-
tions.
You have used your influence to the
detriment OF the office. You have not
given me the advantage OF your coun-
sci. You have always objected ia
keeping the records of the Office and
especially the fee book In such a shape
that the Office could not be properly
checked. .
You pretend TO have facts which, II
they were dlvulaDl, would deprive me
Of my Office. You, for the cake OF your
position, withhold these facts. Such
honesty would shame the devil,
l tremble while you are In the en-.
ploy of the state, hence l discharge

WAR MONEY VOTED SPAIN,
House Votes to Appropriate the Needed
S2O.OOO,OOO

WASHINGTON, Feb 22.-A separate
bill appropriating $50, 900, 900 for pay
ment to Spain under the provisions of
the treaty of Paris was passed by the
House under suspension of the rules.
No amendment was in order, and an
attempt to secure unanimous consent
to offer an amendment declaratory Of
our policy not permanently to annex
the islands vas objected to. Mr..
Wheeler of Kentucky, Upon whose
point of order the appropriation went
out OF the sundry civil bill, made tho
only speech in open hostility to the
measure, but upon the roll call thirty.
four members Democrats,
two Populists and one silver Repub-
~lican-voted against it. The votes OF
el3 members were cast for it.
The Senate bill to reimburse the
governors of states for expenses paid
by the states in organizing Volunteers
for service in the war with Spain be-
fore their muster into the service Of
tho United States also was passed I'M
der suspension of rules. The bill ap-
propriating $50, 600 for the Pan-Amer.
lean exposition, to be held at Buffalo
in 1900, was before the House when
absence OF n quorum compelled an ad.
journment.

The Hearing.

In the office of the secretary OF
state, the committee appointed by
Governor Poynter, consisting OF At
torney General Smyth, Commissioner
Wolfe and Secretary Porter sat to hear
an argument upon its Jurisdiction.
This argument was made pro and con
by Judge Bryant, who appeared for
Mr.. Cornell and Mr.. W~olfenbarger,
who appeared for Mr.. Lichty. Mes
srs, Lichty and Cornell were both
present.
Judge Bryant for Respondent Cor.
nell moved that Mr.. Lichty file his
specific charges and indicate the line
of proof which hs intended to pur-
sue.
10 this Mr.. Wolfenbarger answered
by an objection to the jurisdiction OF
the committee to try the case or en-
force any orders.
The argument upon these two prop
ositions then followed. Judge Bryant
held that the governor charged with
the enforcement of the law, could
delegate the authority to investigate
into allegations of non-enforcement to
a commission which commission, to
all intents and purposes would ave
the same rights and prerogatives as
the governor himself.
The point raised by counsel for Mr..
Lichty was that the legislature had
already taken action in the appoint
ment o: a joint committee, this CON-
m;ttse would be invested with plenary
authority to summons witnesses, both
voluntary and involuntary, and that
the committee appointed by the gov
ernor would be impotent to secure any
testimony except such as was volun-
tarily forthcoming. Mr.. Lichty's po-
sition before the latter committee
would be unfair to him inasmuch as
his testimony which would be forth
coming would be entitled to be cor.
roborated by other witnesses who
might not be willing to appear In the
absence of a compulsory process.
Judge Bryant stated that the pur-
| poses of the committee was to make
| an investigation into the facts and re-
| port to the governor. Its jurisdiction
| could therefore be unquestioncd. IL
Mr.. Lichty desired to make specific
| charges he would be at hJerty to do
| so, il not the committee would pro-
| coed along such lines as it would elect.
Mr.. Wolfenbarger wa not prepared
to state how soon he could tell the
committee whether Mr.. Lichty de-
sired to enter specific charges. The
attorney general suggested 2 o'clock
this afternoon, but this was too short
| for Mr.. Wolfenbarger. II was agreed
to meet at $3.50 Friday morning.

FILIPINOS LEFT FIFTEEN DEAD.
MANILA, Feb. 2s.-The enemy were
concentrating all yesterday at the wa
ter works and in front Of Kings brig
ade. They finally became SO nagging
in front of Kings position that the
general sent two companies of the
First Washington infantry over the
Pasig river.
They swept the country for two
miles and then swung over to the river
bank, opposite the insurgcnt trenches,
facing the American position at Ma
cati and opened q flank fire on the In
surgents across the river.
Two guns of the Sixth artillery, un. T.,
der Lieutenant Scott, at Macati,
pounded the insurgent position, while
the troops from Macati charged and
drove tho enemy before them. Fifteen
Filipinos dead were found and four
wounded. Two American soldiers wero
wounded by the explosion Of Spring
field rifles.
The declaration Of Aguinaldo that
he has made a humane war Is another
fabrication. In the last few weeks the
Red Gloss has been like a red flag to
the insurgents. Chaplain Pierce Of
MacArthnr's staff testifies that he has
been shot at by shar psho oters fifty
times in the provisional hospital.
Every ambulance or litter was the sig.
nal for a shower Of bullets.
The surgeons of the hospital corps,
who were giving aid to the Filipinos
as well as to the American wounded,
were a target for the sharpshooters.
A wounded man who was being carried
from the field was killed by insur-
gents concealed in a tree. The Red
Cross people are now armed.

THE HORRIBLE RAvAGES OF A
MAD DOG.

MAD DOG.
New Bern. N. c.. June 2S.-The Jour
nal publishes the following:
Ten weeks ago Preston Oglesby. the
eleven year old son of hIr. Levi 4. Og-
lesby, OF Wildwood n small station on
the A. and n. C. Railroad In Carteret
county, was bitten by a mad dog, and
last Saturday he died with hydropho-
bia, the result of the dogs bite
The story of the dogs wild rush
through the village is horrible in its
train of terrible results, and that one
animal can cause such destruction only
proves the danger which Is possible to
come from dogs.
The story of this mad dogs running
and biting is as follows:
Some ten weeks ago this dog came
rushing through Wildwood, and biting
a horse, a hog and an OK. These ami
mails died within three weeks.
The horse was bitten through the
nose, and while feeding, afterwards, the
matter from the horses nose got into
the feed in the trough which some
chickens ate. The chickens were selz-
ed with spasms and nearly died.
A chicken belongin to q colored
family was killed by the dog, and the
family ignorantly thought to save the
chicken by cooking It,. and the whole
family died from eating it.
Young Oglesby who died Saturday,
was bitten on the face but the wound
