EIGHTH ARMY CORPS DISSOLVED
Result of Establishment of the Divi
sion of the Pacific.

The recent establishment Of the division
of the Pacific, with four subordinate de-
partments, has resulted in the issue of an
order announcing the dissolution of the sth
Army Corps. which originally comprised
the entire military force in the Philippines.
The creation of the new division was in
tended to dissolve the army corps, but in
order to remove any doubt on that point
the Secretary Of War thought it best to
make public announcement to that effect.
Owing to the fact that Brigadier General
Schwan, chief of staff to General Otis. Is
not in good health, General Otis has been
authorized to grant him leave of absence,
with permission to return to the United
States. 1t is probable that General Schwan
will accompany General Otis to the United
States when the latter leaves Manila, early
in May.
1t is said that Secretary Root has prac-
tically decided to modify the strict rule
against the transportation of the wives and
families of officers to the Philippines so
that they may be able to be with the Off
GERS when the latter are engaged in garri-
son duty. The practical suspension of hos
tilities has removed the former danger and
objection to the presence of the wives and
daughters Of officers in the Philippines.

DEPEND ON UNCLE SAM
Indians Appeal to Government When
Money is Cone

money 1s tone.
Several delegations of Indians have been
IN Washington during the past winter, and
after staying for a time each party has put
IN an appearance at the Interior Depart
ment and asked the Secretary for money
enough to satisfy their landlord and also to
pay their railroad fare home. The leaders
explained that they had spent their money,
and were practically stranded, and they
asked the government to come to their as
sistance. AS they are not supposed to leave
their homes for the purpose Of coming to
Washington, unless they first obtain the
consent of the Secretary of the Interior, it
will be understood that a request of the
kind indicated under the circumstances is
rather out of the ordinary, to put 1t mildly
however, from the Indian point of view
there is nothing improper about it, but in
many instances 1t is believed the entire
scheme is concocted for the purpose of get
ing trip TO Washington at the expense of
the government. AS a rule the Indians are
supplied with funds in order that they NAV
go nome, and while there Is not much
ground for their claim upon the generosity
OF Uncle Sam, still 1t is made with great
regularity. practically each year, and the
government as regularly forks over Cen
orally speaking, the business which brings
them to the city. If they have any, is to
push some claim in Congress or to attend to
matters before the departments.

THE GEORGES CREEK STRIKE
MINERS SHOW NO DISPOSITION To
GIVE Up.
So Far There Has Been No Violence
Iron and Steel Workers
Also Out.

FROSTBURG, Md, April 13-The strike
among the $500 coal miners in the Georges
creek district, which began on Wednesday.
continues in full force, with no indications
of an intention to yield upon the part OF
either the miners the owners. The men
profess to be able to hold out almost in
definitely, while the owners appear indiffer-
ent and profess to care very little whether
the mines are worked not. An attempt
has been made to handicap the miners by
inducing merchants to refuse them credit,
and this has been partially successful, but
the men purpose to counterfeit it by esta5
fishing stores to be run on the cooperative
plan, under the management of the Mine
Workers Union.
AS far as can be learned not a single act
of violence has been committed or attempt
ed, nor has there been any coercion. except
in the case of about twenty men who were
inclined to return to work yesterday. These
were waited upon by a committee, backed
by about 800 of the strikers, and after some
persuasion the men abandoned the notion
of going to work. There is nothing to in
dictate that there will be any outbreak nor
is 1t likely that such a thing will happen,
bring in outside labor. In this event there
is no doubt that a repetition of the scenes
of 1894, when the militia of the state were
called out, will be re-enacted.
Absolutely no work is being done in any
Of the mines in the region, except such as
is necessary to keep the mining property
from being damaged by fire or water, and
all business connected with mining is prac-
tically at a standstill.
All the mechanics and laborers in the
employ of the Cumberland iron and steel
shafting works went strike last night.
About go men are involved. The strike it
is alleged. is the result of the lathe men
being locked for the time it takes men on
other turns to remedy the work which they
are charged with spelling.

Delegates Declare for Bryan.


Mr.. ]. Fred. Kelley, secretary of the dem
ocratic central committee and one of the
delegates to Kansas City said that yester-
days convention was regularly called and
constituted, and was held in accordance
ever since 1880.
ANY other convention would be irregu-
lar he remarked, because the central
committee alone has power to call one. So
far as our instructions for Mr.. Bryan are
cerned We would. have all voted for him
loyalty in any event. He will have our I'M
divided support as long as his name is be-
fore the convention, and it needs no prophet
to declare that this will be all the time"
4 am going to Kansas City" said Mr..
William F. Hart, and will carry out the
convention instructions, you can rest as
sured. Our delegation is regular and of
course will be admitted. A blind man could
see that
Delegates Whalen. Clarke and Donovan
were equally earnest in their expressions for
Mr.. Bryan, and in the belief that they
would be seated, and Mr. Norris referred to
his past loyalty to Mr.. Bryan as a sufficient
reply to all tmputations against him.
Convention Monday Night.
Inc executive committee of the anti

called, the regular Bryan and Chicago plat

at O'Clock this afternoon in the Office of
the Antitrust League. on the third floor
of No. 1923 Pennsylvania avenue The pro-
ceedfngs were delayed long enough for Mr.
Herman Schulteis to inform a Star re-
porter that a convention of the regular
democrats would be held Monday night,
April 16, at o'clock, in Grand Army Hall,
on Pennsylvania avenue, opposite Willard 8
Hotel.
The delegates. said Mr. Schulties. would
De those gentlemen whose names were on
the enti-Norris ticket at the recent pri-
maries, but whose opponents were returned
as being elected, and admission to the hall
would be by cards, which would be given to
the delegates for distribution. The com
mtttee was still in session when The Stars
report closed.
