M'KlNLEY CONDEMNED
In Bosto For Wearing a Con-
federate Badge.

Boston, May 29-At the close of the
memorial services at the Harvard
Street Baptist church Sunday morn
ing at which Joseph Hooker command
No. 9, Union Volunteer Union, was pres
ent, Colonel John Damers, a member of
Chelsea G.. A. r. post, severely criti-
cised the wearing of a Confederate
badge by President Mckinley and the
action of F. w. Kinsley post, G. A. r.,
in asking General Wheeler to deliver
Memorial day address. Colonel Dam
ers' remarks were received with tre-
mendous applause. Colonel Hallet,
colonel of the command, said after the
meeting that while Colonel Damers
may have been a little radical, he un-
doubtedly represented the views of
most of the members and that practi-
cally very few of the latter would be-
present at the Boston theater on Tues
day, when General Joseph Wheeler is
to speak.

AGAINST GREAT ODDS.
War is Being Carried on in the Philip
pines.
29.-The Times-Herald

Chicago, May 29.-The Times-H Herald
says:
Captain Charles D. Clay of the Sew
enteenth infantry, a grandson of Henry
Clay and a fighter at Santiago, has re-
turned from Manila on sick leave.
He was wounded near Malolos the 25th
of March, Is days after landing from
the transport Grant. The bullet enter
ed his neck and has not been extracted.
He went last night to his home in Lex
ingtOn, Ky, but expects to go on to
New York Immediately for treatment.
Concerning the war in the Philip
pines he said:
volunteers vie with regulars in gal
lantry. The heroism of both is superb.
The First Nebraska and Twentieth
Kansas regiments are equal to any on
earth. And the war now going on is
as difficult and magnificent a passage
at arms as any in our annals. A hand
full of men are waging a war there
against incompara BILE odds. With 75,-
600 100000 men we could sweep the
island in thirty days and avert the tre-
mendous mortality that is now as GER
tain as fate.
General Lawton had the eye of the
soldier when he said 100000 men were
needed. We have not troops enough
to occupy what we conquer. The place
at which I was wounded had been
taken three times before and as many
times abandoned because we had not
force enough to hold it. That is the
case everywhere. Manila is a great
city, full of thousands of men ready to
rise at moments notice. 1t requires
5000 are in the hospital or are useless,
and that leaves barely $4,000 men to
beat the Filipinos in the field and hold
what is gained

BRAUN PUT TO DEATH
For Numbering His Wife While
In Jail.

New York, May 29.-Adrian Braun
was put to death by electricity in Sing
Sing prison today for the murder of his
wife. A current of 800 volts was turn
ed on at 9:17 a. m. and at 9:1S Braun
was declared to be dead by the at
tending physicians. A second shock
was given for ten seconds. The execu-
tion was successful.
Braun was a German, Sc years of age
and a cigar maker of New York; he
was father of five children. He was
sentenced in August, 1897, to two years
for assault in the second degree in hav-
ing beaten his wife. His arrest COM
PEELED Mrs. Braun to place her two
youngest children in an asylum, while
she supported the other three by taking
in washing and doing chores for neigh
bors. On the day of the murder she
came to the prison with some delicacies
for her husband. Braun, who was en-
pIoyed in the mess room as a potato
peeler was sent for. Braun and his wife
kissed each other and appeared to be
very friendly. They conversed and it
was not known that Braun had a knife
At 4 o'clock Detective Jackson, In whose
office they were sitting and from whose
desk they were only about ten feet,
told Braun it was time to return to his
cell. Braun pleaded for a few extra
minutes and his request was granted.
Suddenly he stood up and Mr.. Jackson
saw the long sharp pointed potato knife
in his hand. He brought it down with
fearful force against the left side of his
wife's neck, with one cut he severed
the jugular vein and the main artery
in the neck. Before the detective could
reach him he plunged the knife several
more times into the dead body of Mrs.
Braun. The detective seized him and
several keepers at once searched him.
Another potato knife was found con-
cealed in his clothing. With this the
authorities believed he intended to kill
himself.

FROM JUDGE HAzEN.
He is Against Those Who Want
Political Police Force.

The latest move, on the part of the
politicians and ward heelers who are
demanding that the police department
be turned over to the dictatorship of the
leaders of the party in power in order
that political workers may be rewarded
by positions, is the circulation of petit
ton asking for the romval of Sergeant
J. c. Owen.
The petition is being circulated among
those who claim that Ito the victor be-
longs the spoils' and who place eff
cheney and capability in a secondary
place to political rewards. The petition
is to be presented to Mayor Drew and
will set forth the fact that Sergeant
Owen is a Democrat and should there
fore be removed
Judge z. T. Hazen, who has written
Mayor Drew a letter regarding removals
on the police force for political reasons,
is in a position to measure the eff
cheney of the officers, as they appear be-
fore him in many cases and he under
stands the work required of them. Judge
Hazen said today: Il have observed
the conduct and work of Sergeant Owen
and I am satisfied he is an efficient Off
GER and [ believe it is 20 the best in
terests of the city to retain such men
on the police force.
s'It would be far better to have the
police department removed from politics
and the further the better. There should
be no politics in the department but the
men should be efficient. What the city
wants and should have is a capable po-
lice force regardless of political ques-
tions.
Before a man is a good officer he
must have experience. 1t requires ex-
perience to make a good officer the
same as experience is required in every
other business. To be good officer the
criminal classes must be studied and
an officer must know them. If a police
man understands his business and hears
of a burglary he knows where to look
for the burglar, or If a petty larceny case
he knows where to hunt for the thief.
Like in any other line of business he
must build himself up and after he has
done so he is valuable to the city,
