MacArthur's Message Opens the
Eyes of Government Officials.

1t was given out yesterday By 4 high
official of the War Department. after hav-
ing held a conference with the President,
| that no troops will be permitted to leave
! the Philippines until July 1, 1901, and that
Mr.. Mckinley will embody the reeommen-
dation in his forthcoming message to Con-
gress.
The serious conditions which confront
the American Army in the archipelago
it is now thought that in place of
discharging troops. more will have to
be sent to Manila. The statements
made by General Macarthur in his reply
to the cablegram to begin strenuous cam
paign have, it is said, opened the eyes OF
Government officials and shown them the
magnitude of the task which is before them
If the Philippines are to be retained.
The announcement comes as a surprise.
since it was thought that the homeward
movement of troops would begir about
November % and continue until June. At
/ the very furthest it was not believed that
the matter would be postponed later than
January 1, and the statement that the
July 1. before any steps will be taken to
relieve the men, is regarded with any
thing but satisfaction.
That the situation in the Philippines Is
acute is frankly acknowledged, ana Con
gress will be asked to aid the President
in stamping out the insurrection Which Is
at present more lively than ever before.
Under the law the 1913 volunteer officers
and 81 ,O79 men must be discharged by
t. tptn n
them in the Philippines until the last mo-
ment.
During the interval, the plan is, accord
ing to a well-informed army officer, to
have Congress increase the Regular Army
to 10000 men, so that these can be
thrown in to take the places of the voinn-
teers No trouble is expected in having
the standing establishment enlarged, since
the cry for help in the Philippines ana
the sanctity of the flag will, it is believed,
send such a measure through. An in
crease of 1900 men will also be ordered
in the Marine Corps, it is said. and the
artillery arm will be strengthened By TO-
co., 1t Is intended to have at least $4,000
regulars in the Philippines and to press
the campaign vigorously.
No trouble has been had with the vol
unteeT officers in the Philippines since Cen
eral Macarthur was ordered TO hold up all
designations and to refuse to accept them.
Since this move was made, it Is claimed
that some 200 designations have been held
up and kept from Washington. few of
the officers have gotten away by playing
sick and getting leave Of absence which has
been Indefinitely extended until they are
discharged.

partment official yesterday morning. I'VE

OF the woodland caribou a few are
found in Maine, though it is not law
full to kill them, but they may be
hunted in Newfoundland, New Bruns-
wick, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Cape Bre-
ton, Manitoba, northern Canada, Min
nesota northern Idaho, Washington,
and then north to northern Alaska.
If they are found in New Hampshire,
Michigan or North Dakota it is un-

favorite among hunters. It's principal
haunts are in Florida, Virginia, the
Adirondacks of New York, Maine, New

of Michigan, Wisconsin and Mime

OPENING or
HUNTING SEASON.

1t usually is at this season of the
year that the native hunter of big
game. the man who hunts for the joy
and excitement the sport affords, gets
his outfit in shape for the fall or win
ter outing and sets himself the task
of deciding upon the place at which
he will make his camp. He has a
wide territory to look over and va
riety of big game from among which
to choose his quarry.
\ glance at the accompanying map.
upon which the habitats of the big
game are charted, will convince even
the most skeptical that there are still
vast areas in the United States and
in British North America where
primeval stiffness reigns" and where
man is only an occasional nightmare
to the beasts which dwell therein
Years ago it was the ambition OF
the American hhnter OF big game to
bring down a mountain sheep. That
ambition has faded away, not so
much because of too plentiful sup
ply of mountain sheep. but largely be-
cause the region inhabited by these
sheep or some species of them is more
accessible than it used to be. Speak
ing generally. the mountain sheep
roam over the region of the Rockies,
from New Mexico to northern Alaska.
The four species of mountain sheep
and the localities in which they are
found are: Nelson's. in the southern
ranges of the Rocky mountains; the
big horn, which range from the mid
die Rockies TO British Columbia:
Stones big mountain sheep, which
recently have been discovered by him
in the Stickine river region, north of
British Columbia, and the white. or
Dalrs. species, which are found from

most difficult land to penetrate. In the
winter it is practically inaccessible,
and in the summer the open country
is covered with swamps that are al
most impossible. The Indians of this
region are by no means anxious to
help the white man to kill the game.
Next to the buffalo in the United
States to be doomed to extinction is
the prong-hOrn antelope Those antel-
ope that remain may be found in
Arizona. New Mexico, northwestern
Colorado especially in Routt county,,
Wyoming, western Montana, Idaho,
Nebraska, South Dakota. Washington,
Manitoba and the Northwest Terri
tory. But it is unlawful to kill an
telOpe at any time in Texas, North
Dakota or Utah.
The moose is one of the most sat
isfactory kinds of big game to get
after. He may be hunted from Maine
to Alaska. Any nimrOd who lives in
the east and wants to distinguish him
self has the opportunity of going up
into Maine and killing the King of
Moose, the monster "specter' that
carries around in his interior a lead
mine, the gift Of unsuccessful hunt
ers, who, after emptying their maga-
zines of bullets. have taken to the tall
trees or to the neasest cave. And at
Cooks Inlet, Alaska. was killed the
largest moose that ever has been
bagged. So here's the range OF the
moose: Maine, New Brunswick, Cape
Breton, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia,
Quebec. the Ottawa district of Canada,
around Georgian bay, in northern
Minnesota, and in the region of the
Rockies as far south as northern Wy
oming. and running north in Alaska
to Cooks Inlet, and beyond. No moose,

During the ten days of martial law
fCrty-six general orders were issued.
Gen. Scurry says they We're models of
military cOnciSeneSS. In these forty
six orders this newspaper plodder,
whom the hurricane had tossed into a
position Of despotic power second only
to the military governor himself, gave
TO the town a code of laws which
brought order out of chaos, defined
the common law rights which would
be respected and indicated in no un-
certain terms the common law rights
which ceased to exist under this fear
ful and peculiar military despotism.
But more wonderful than this was the
fact that the people proper, who had
been governed with an iron hand and
often at the muZZle of a rifle, rose uD
and proclaimed against the proposed
abrOSdtiOn of martial law. 1t was
McCaleb who first suggested to Gen.
Scmry that the time had come to get
back to civil government As the ad-
jutant general had been in the closest
touch with the people, Gen. Scurry
placed great store on his opinion. He
saw the correctness of it, and told the
mayor that martial law must cease,
and in twenty-four hours the machin-
cry of civil process was again in mo-
ton.

There are few men in Texas with
such a well developed propensity fOi
getting into disagreeable jobs as Col.
Hunt McCaleb. who was adjutant gen.
eral OF the city forces when Galveston
was under martial law. When Gen.
Thomas Scurry was appointed TO the
military command of the city by May
or Jones he at once offered the ap
pointment of adjutant general TO Col.
McCaleb Why he did so nobody ap
peared to know. for McCaleb is not
popular. In normal times he is an
unassuming newspaper plOdder of the
most ordinary stripe. But he seems
fairly to revel in a row, and perhaps
that is why Gen. Scurry appointed
him to the responsible position of
adjutant general. and gave into his
hands the work of managing the great
mass of detail which devolved upon
the military government.
There was no law to guide him save
common sense. and, according to his
story, when he needed a law right

Bears are to be found almost every
