The record of the trial re- ceived shows that the officers were charged with drunkenness in the streets of Manila.
 rollowing is the New York Jour nals explanation of the multitude of strikes: "AIost of the current strikes are due to the increased cost of living. Normally for higher wages, they are really strikes against wage reductions. The general rise of prices has so cut down the purchasing power of money that the real wages of most workmen are lower now than they were in the midst of the hard times three years ago, even when they are 10 or 20 per cent higher measured in dollars and cents. The only benefit most work men have received from prosperity thus far has been increased steadlness of employ yment. There has been no improvement In earnings for those at work. but rather the reverse.'
 Maintained on war footing and at a distance which makes the transpor- tation bills an extremely formidable item, the war in the Philippines prob ably costs with due allowance for the marines and the navy, between SSO,. 900, 900 and S9O,OOO,OOO per annum. The United States is sinking money at terrible rate in carrying out Presi- dent McKinley's expansion policy in the far east. So far as the trade of the Philippines counts, we are throwing away dollars to get back dimes. There is no probability, nay, we may well say there is no possibility, that the commerce of the archipelago can ever give back to Uncle Sam one-tenth Oi tue ulOHSl WhlCl ht ID oPShhihS with such lavish hand.
 Arthur Shutt known as the man with the junk-shop stomach, has been discharged from the Johns Hopkins hospital. Baltimore. Never again, he told the physicians, will he adopt the junk diet, but will in the future eat what other human beings eat. By the physicians Smut was regarded as one of the strangest characters that has ever entered the institution. He is twenty-two years old, and was ad- mitted to the hospital on March i3 last, but with some suspicion by the physicians, on account of the extraor- dinary story he told. All suspicion was removed when the physicians opened Shutps stomach and took there- from quantity of nails, tacks, chains, knife blades, broken glass and such stuff. He said he had been in the habit of chewing for wagers such ar ticles. but, owing to his skill at de- ceiving those who watched him, had

POLITICALLY DEAD.
Tom Watson to Be Placed in
That Class.

Atlanta, Ca, April 27.-The action of
Populist conventions in several northern
states in endorsing Thomas f. Watson
of Georgia and naming him for first
place on the ticket has caused some
thing Of a stir in political circles all
over the south. The association of Mr..
Watson's name with his rumored re-
entry into politics took the form in one
instance Of a report that he had de-
cided to accept the nomination and that
he was considering who should present
his name. Mr.. Watson had stated sew
eral times that he was out of politics,
but in view of recent rumors connect
ing him prominently with the Populist
nomination, the distinguished Georgian
was asked for a final declaration. The
following was received from Mr.. Watson
today:
Under no circumstances would I &C
cept any nomination, or any office
Please number me among the politically
dead and let me henceforth rest in
peace.''

to vote. Most people there think they
have a home girl who would excel the
Niltonvale young lady in beauty con-
test.

TROOPS FOR CUBA.
Soldiers to the Number of 2o3 Sent
Including 118 From Leavenworth.

Washington, April 27.-Orders have
been issued for the transfer of 118 men
of the depot battalion of the First in
fantTy from Fort Leavenworth, Kan, to
Havana, Cuba; 100 men of the depot
battalion of the Fifth infantry from
Fort Sheridan, ILL.,, to Santiago, Cuba,
and 50 men of the depot battalion of the
Eighth infantry from Fort Smelling,
Mimi, to Havana. These transfers are
made with view to the distribution of
the men to companies of the active bat
talions in Cuba.
A possibly significant feature of the
orders for these transfers is that the
selections are confined to men who have
not less than one year to serve of their
present enlistment This is taken to
mean that the military occupation of
Cuba is not likely to be entirely aban-
doned for at least a year to come.

THOs. HARLAND DEAD.
Creator of the American System of
Internal Revenue Law.


Internal Revenue Law.
New York, April 27-Thomas Harland,
a well known lawyer, is dead in this
city, aged 20 years. In his younger days
his intellect and legal acumen were i'm
portant factors in the creation of the
American system of internal revenue
law that originated under the exigencies
of the civil war. He was also the prac-
teal Trainer of our existing patent law
When the internal revenue bureau was
founded at Washington in 1852, he was
added to its force and speedily proved
an invulnerable aid to Joseph Lewis
the first commissioners of internal rev.
enue.
The patent office borrowed him for a
time, during which he devised the Amer
lean system since in vogue, but was re-
called to the revenue department, the
special office of deputy commissioner be-
ing created in order to utilize fully his
services. Later he came to New York
and practiced law. His son, Henry Har-
land. of London. is a well known
writer.
