Editor, Richmond PLANET,
Richmond, Va,
Sir:-I would like you to publish the
following as favor to the American
soldier:
The transport Pennsylvanis with the
5sth Infantry on board arrived in the
harbor Thursday. She also brought a
detachn; ent Of the 18th Infantry, who
tell tale of their experience, which
IL lt Is true, will show up some OF the
seth officers guilty of conduct unbe-
coming officers and gentlemen. They
say the trouble originated when the
big transports was nearing Honolulu.
One OF them went on deck to secure
water from the tank when he was in
formed that the water was not for
"oiggers," and they wouldn't be al.
lG led to drink.
APPEALED TO OFFICERS.
The soldier refused, appealed to the
officers who ordered the guards to give
them water in q manner which clearly
indicated their approval OF the guards
action. The transport arrived in Hon.
olulu and they had begun to think that
the trouble was over owing TO the lib
erty allowed, but this hope soon shat
tered for on the first night in Honolu-
Ia, a member OF the detachment was
shot by sentry while in q semi drunk
en- condition, apparently without ne
cessity.
The matter was reported however
and the sentry appointed corporal, pre-
sumably for the act. The transport
sailed from Honolulu and the trouble
kept up the principal being c'Iled q
"nigger."
MORE TROUBLE.
Pt. Chsppelle sent from Go. g ,25th to
Co. b, was sitting on the hatch, he was
ordered by sentry to get down. Upon
being informed that he was ordered to
sit there the sentry said you, black g.
of D. get down. Uhappelle in
formed him that he was another g.
OF b; and he was placed under
arrest. Lieut.. Cobb, 90. E 39th, In
feSsry. SummonarY Court Officer. be-
fore whom Ohappslle was tried fined
him $1,000, informing him that he
didn't like ''niggers" nohow. A Lieu
tenant in the 18th Infantry, who was
also q passenger on board, informed us
that such was contrary TO military d is-
cipline and the fine was cut to five
dollars. All OF these actions were sp-
proved by the Colonel.
DON'T LIKE THE REGULARS,
The principal trouble was that the
volunteers didn't like the regulars, and
vice versa. The treatment accorded
the 25th, is sorely regretted by Col.
Buot because any soldier, Regular or
Volunteer, white or black. who is un-
der his command and protection, will
be protected even il he loses one man
In the attempt and if any one under
his command was shot, the Sentry
would be placed under arrest and not
appointed Corporal.
Such treatment from people, and all
leaving home to fight under the same
flag will cause serious trouble by pro.
longing the war, and making our enc
my's hope; divided army, the Volun-
teer and Regular.

CANAL BILL WILL PASS.
Canvas OF Senate and House Shows
. Majority of Both Bodies i'm
Favor of IL.

NEW YORK. Jan. 22--According to the
Herald's Washington correspondent the
Hepburn Morgan Nicaragtian canal bill will
be passed during the present session OF
congress. Speaker Henderson Is in favor
of the bill and of prompt action. Senator
Frye. president pro tenn. of the senate.
wants action by the senate and expresses
the belief that the bill will be passed at
an early date.
The measure will receive the approval of
the president.
There Is an overwhelming majority in
both houses Of congress In favor of the
pending bill and in favor of passing IL
without awaiting for the report of the
Walker commission.
The Herad's poll shows:
In favor of action this session. Senators,
81; representatives. 254. total, 3l6. In favor
of delay, senators, one: representatives,
%; total, 30 Noncommittal or not can
vassed. senators. Is; representatives, 67;
total, 80.
Many men in the house, cIassed as nom
cOmmittal, are strongly inclined to favor
the Hepburn bill, but are unwilling to COM
init themselves before they have seen the
report of the committee. Some of those
who are opposed to action at this time will
when confronted with the necessity of get
ting on record vote for the bill. 1t Is said
that at least four-ffths of both houses will
vote for the measure.
Senators who express no decided prefer
ence, one way or the other, are largely
administration men, who will be Influenced
In their votes by the desire of the presi-
dent and the administration leaders. The
knowledge that President Mckinley Is anx-
ious to see the canal bill passed by this
congress will, 1t is believed, Insure the
votes of these senators for the measure.

A LARGE SNAG rs STRUCK.
Attitude of the Great Northern
stops the Deal to Abolish
Commit eiOnern.

CHICAGO. Jan. pat the mass meet
ing of general passenger agents of West
ern and transcontinental roads, in the
Western Passenger Association rooms to-
day. 1t is said a snag was struck that
threatens to delay abolishng commission
payments and restoring passenger rates to
normal tariff. President J. j. Hill, of The
Great Northern and the managers of the
Canadian Pacific are said to stand in the
way Of the contamination of the big pool
ing plan of the Eastern road magnates.
Gen. Passenger Agent Whitney, Of the
Great Northern. reported that his road
was. not prepared to withdraw the s25
tourist rate from st. Paul to Seattle, but
would consent. in the interest of har
mony, to make the minimum rate to al!
points in the, Northwest s25. The reason
assigned was that the Great Northern
cannot afford to abandon the field to the
Canadian Pacific, which continues to
make the low rates This was not sat-
isfactory to the Union Pacific and Ore
gon Railroad and Navigation Company,
which refused to honor rebate tickets SO
long as tickets at fiat rates are sold from
st. Paul Efforts are now being made
to harmonic the conflicting interests OF
the Canadian Pacific ard Northern Pa
ciiic.

KENTUCKY ELECTION CONTEST.
Louisville Police Testify Before the
Legislative Committee.

FRANKFORT, Ky, Jan. 22.--The police
force of louisville, through four of its
officers. defended itself vigorously tonight
against charges of interference at the
November elections which have been
brought against 1t by the Republicans.
, Capt Krakel. Lieut.. Wickhani. Capt.
Wright and Lieut.. Ridge were the officers
and all gave practically the same evil
dence. They declared that orders were
issued before the election to the members
of the police force to interfere in no way
with the election and that the orders
were carried out in good faith. There
was, they. declared. no reason why the
military should have been called out by
Gov. Bradley. and no particular reason
why an extra policeman should have
been sworn in, as there was no disturb
ance at any time on election day. Each
of the four officers declared that in his
individual opinion the presence of the
militia in the armory deferred many peo-
pie from going to the polls On cross-ex-
animation they. could not name any per-
son so detained.
In the legislature today the house con-
testing committee reported in favor of A.
II. Crawford. Dem. OF Breathitt, against
Edward Markham, Rep. The report was
adopted without a dissenting vote.

Succumbs to Pneumonia.

After an Illness OF sevefal DAYS ne

LONDON, Jan. 22.-The demise of the
Duke of Teck occurred at tbs Sunday
evening.
The duke died from pneumonia after an
illness of several days.
The Duke of Teck. who died yesterday.
had been insane since the death OF the
duchess and had been constantly under
restraint Previous to her death he
showed signs of insanity which subse-
quent to her demise became fully devel-
oped. His death was FASTENED by an at
tack of paralysis.
The Duke of Teck owes his claims to
public notice principally to the fact that
he married a cousin of Queen Victoria,
and that his daughter married the Duke
OF York. and consequently will, In all
probability. be a queen herself some day.
In addition to this daughter. he leaves
three sons, all captains in the British
army serving with their regiments, one,
the heir to the title. being in South Africa.
