ENROLMENT AT AN END.
Instructions Given to Dawes Commfs.
sion That 1t Must Enroll No
More Indians

WASHINGTON, Aug. S-(Special) Act
ing Secretary Ryan has approved the in
structions prepared by Commissioner Jones,
of the Indian department, for guidance of
the Dawes commission relative to the en-
rollment of the citizens of the various
tribes. The instructions set forth the con-
clusion that there now exists no authority
in the commission to enroll any person
citizen of any of the nations whose name
does not appear upon some roll of the ma
ton in which he may claim rights of citi-
zenship. The commission is authorized to
remove from the rolls fraudulent enroll
ments and to include among those properly
enrolled white children of the ChoctaYs
and Chickasaws. Additional Mississippi
Choctaws, settled in the Choctaw and
Chckasaw country before completion of
the rolls, appearing for identification, may
be recorded and testimony taken, and
their names sent to the Indian Office with
the decision of the commission, their status
to be determined by the department. The
rolls as made by the commission must, to
become final, receive the approval of the
secretary of the interior, and each appli-
cant must appear in person for examina-
tion under oath. These instructions do not
apply. to the enrolment of freedmen, whose
case is covered by special instructions, but
they supersede the previous instructions
given the commission.

PARDON BUSINESS LIGHT.
Governor Stanley Does Not Waste
Much Time Listening to Ap-
peals of Convicts.

TOPEKA, Aug. S.-(SpecialD Governor
Stanley is not bothered much any mere
over pardon matters. The pardon docket
has been wiped almost clean. Fewer cases
are now pending than at any other time in
the past fifteen years. There are two rea-
sons for this. In the first place the gov
ernor Is opposed to the system of granting
pardons promiscuously; he turns down for
ty,nine out of fifty applications. AS re-
SUIT, the conVlctS have become discoura ged
and have quit asking for pardons.. The
other reason is that the governor is not
hampered with an expensive but useless
board of pardons He does the work him
self He wades through the applications
There is one district judge in Kansas
VINO never signs an application for par
don for any one convicted in his court
It is Judge Walter Simons, of Fort Scott
Judge Simons says he sympathizes with
many prisoners whom he sentences, but
he will not sign pardon petitions. The
time for judge to take hand, he says,
is when sentence is pronounced.
Mrs. Emma Stewart, of Wichita. to-day
hed Reds1t Protest st. against the application Of
to prison from sedgwick county for as as
saulting and robbing Charles wilkins One
of Prices friends worked on Wilkins and
don. Mrs. Stewart is the sister of WiIk-
ms In her letter to the governor, she
says that they took advantage of her
brother while she was absent and that she
desires to protest against the granting of
a pardon in the case, She says her brother
has been sick ever since Price assaulted
him, and that the latter should be required
to spend the rest of his days in prison.
c. V. Furbee, who was sent up from
Crawford county, in 1897 for forgery. has
applied for a pardon. He was sentenced to
three years. His wife is in a destitute
condition and she has written a pathetic
letter asking the governor to release her
husband.
Fred Pflughoft. sent to prison in 1891 for
fifteen years for murder from Ellsworth
county,. has asked Governor Stanley to re-
open his case. The governor passed on 1t
last month and refused a pardon. Plug
hoft is 81 years old. He says he has con-
siderable property which is getting badly
tangled up and he is liable to lose all of
it unless he can get out and take care of
it: He says he has been sending his salary
as convict-3 cents a day-to Ellsworth
county to keep up the taxes on his farm.
A number of the best people of that coun-
ty have signed his petition. He says he
has suffered sufficiently for all the crimes
he ever committed and will live an upright
life If released.
Governor Stanley will take up pardon
cases on August II and Is. His regular
day is the 18th of each month. but on ac-
to change pardon day."

ILLINOIS NINE OPERATORS ARE
WEARY OF DELAY.
GENERAL STRIKE MAY RESULT
MINERS REFUSE TO CARRY OUT AN
OLD AGREEMENT.
of Mining Scale Had Been
Arranged For, but Miners OH
cials Persistently Decline
to Name Man as
Umpire.

CHICAGO, Aug. S.-Another general sus-
pension OF mining operations in Illinois is
threatening. The Illinois coal operators,
in meeting to-day, practically threw
down the gauntlet to the miners in an
ultimatum/to the effect that unless the
miners take action at once looking to a
seventh arbitrator to settle the dispute over
pick and machine mining differentials, ac-
cording to the Pittshurg agreement, the
operators would not use their influence to
adjust the trouble in the Pana and Virden
districts. That the continuation of the
trouble in these two districts for much
longer period will result in spread of
the trouble to other fields is looked upon
as a certainty.
At the national convention, held at Pitts
burg in January, the understanding was
that the operators would choose three ar
bitrators and the miners three more, these
six to meet and choose the seventh. This
board of seven men were to take up the
diHerentfal between machine and pick min
ing rates in Illinois mines and make the
basis of the differental in this state con-
form with that in Ohio, Indiana and Penn
sylvania.
The operators say that, notwithstanding
lnnumerable kilograms and appeals TO the
miners officials, it has been impossible to
get the miners to agree on the seventh
man. They claim to have offered the
miners the names of more than 100 prom
inent citizens of Illinois not connected with
the coal business, and none is acceptable

Company, 1,200 in number. to-day Joined the
Nanticoke strikers and now all of the en-
ployes of the company in this region, a

closed. An official of the Susquehanna Coal
Company says the strike will no. interfere
with the company's collieries in the Schuyl-
kill region and at Shamokin. except to give
more work to the men at these places. The
strikers, he says. demand an increase in
wages on the general ground that wages
are advancing throughout. the country.

substantial way by the people at home"

BATTLE IN PHILIPPINES.
General Macarthur, With 1000 Men,
Defeats n Force of 6,OOO
EilininOS.


MANILA, Aug 9-General MacArthur's
force, consisting of 1000 men, advanced five
miles beyond San Fernando to-day and en-
countered and defeated Filipino force of
5000 men. The enemy retreated, leaving
many dead and wounded. The American
loss in killed and wounded was twenty.
Aguinaldo has appealed to the powers for
recognition of Filipino independence" in
a document dated from Tarlac, July 81,
and signed by Buencamino. 1t has been re-
ceived by all the foreign consuls in Manila.
with the request that they forward it to
their respective governments.
The Filipinos use their old argument that
they had conquered the sovereignty of these
islands from Spain before the signing of
the treaty of Paris. and, therefore, Spain
was in no position to cede them to the
United States. They argue that the pos
session OF 1000 Spanish prisoners, captured,
with their arms. fighting against the Fill
pinos, lis eloquent proof of the nullty of
Spanish sovereignty, as when they sur
rendered Spain's hold was irrevocably lost"
The document then says:
Replying to the Spanish commissions
requests to release the prisoners because
Spain no longer has political interests in
the Islands, we asked for treaty of peace
~ pet"eei Sphiii anu .iie III
pinos, whereby the prisoners would be re-
leased. But the commissioners refused,
because it would mean recognition of our
independence. This is equivalent to saying
that the prisoners must stay in our hands
indefinitely, because their possession is our
most efficacious method to adjust our ac-
count with Spain and obtain from her
recognition of our independence"
WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The state de-
partment is entirely without information as
to any address by Aguinaldo to foreign
powers for the recognition of the Filipinos,
either as belligerents or as constituting an
independent government. The appeal is
looked upon, however, as creating no par
ticular change, as it has been the desire
OF Aguinaldo and his associates from the
first to secure such recognition. The appeal
puts this desire into rather formal shape,
and it may bring to an issue the attitude
Of outside governments. There is no ap-
preheEsion, however, that any foreign gov
ernment will heed the address.

ZINC MINERS SCHEDULE.
reProducers of Observation-Disclosures Dis
trIct Unite to Fight SmeIter
Trust,

JOPLIN, MO, Aug. S.-(SpeciaI) The
most effective move of the Missouri-Kan-
sas Zinc Miners Association in its fight
against the zinc smelters' trust, was con-
summated to-day. when the association an
nounced a schedule of fixed prices for all
grades of zinc ore, to stand for six months.
These prices are practically the same as
for the past three weeks. The association,
which includes about 90 per cent of the
ore producers of the Missouri-Kansas dis
trict, makes the minimum price for zinc
ore containing 63 per cent metal, SAG per
ton, and for every per cent less of metal
in ore reduction of 81 ton. The ore of
the district, as a rule, runs from 30 to
So per cent metal zinc. The association
began making prices six months ago and
since then ore prices have nearly doubled
Prior to that time the ore 'yroducers were
at the mercy of the smelters and had to
take any price offered for their ore The
stiff demand for high grade zinc ore IS
likely to run the price up to $50 before
the end of the month.
