Sentinel special from Manitowoc. Wis,

They were picked up Saturday after
noon in the lake, wnere they were

They had been thus exposed since
Friday, when they were capsized by a

Russell b. Harrlson's Discharge.

Washington, d. c., December 15.-lt
was learned today that before his dis
charge from the volunteer army Rus
sell B. Harrison, son Of the former
president, asked for a court of inquiry
This request was based upon reflec-
lions made upon Lieutenant Colonel
Harrison's record by Brigadier Gen
eral Davis, recently relieved as mill
tary governor of Porto Rico. In pri-
vate letter to the auJutant general,
General Davis made statement
which Lieutenant Colonel Harrison de-
clared to be without foundation. Ad-
jutant General Corbin, in cabling the
discharge of Mr.. Harrison from the
army. referred to the reflections"
made upon that gentleman by General
Davis. Lieutenant Colonel Harrison
felt that his services had been per-
formed satisfactorily and he there
fore asked for strict Investigation
1t is probable that General Davis let
ter was one of the causes which led to
the decision not to revoke the orders
directing the discharge Of the former
presidents son.

Washington, December 15.-rhe re-
port of the director Of mints on the
production of gold and silver In the
United States during the calendar
year 1899 shows only slight variation
from the approximate figures given
out early in the present year, The
final figures are 71,O5S,4OO for gold,
and $S2,S5S,7OO for silver, at its aver
age commercial value during the year.
The gold product was the greatest in
the history of the country. The silver
product of the United States in 1898
was slightly greater than in 1898, be-
irg 54,764.000 ounces, against 54.43S 900
ounces. The average price. for silver
during the year on the London quota

A frank and somewhat artless state
ment of what is being done in the line
of burning the farms of the Beers is
made by correspondent of the Pail
Mall Gazette at Johannesburg. This
enterprising person wishes to form a
company to buy up the farms of the
Beers and sell them to English settlers.
The properties can be bought for .
mere tribe. The reason why, as given
by this speculative correspondent, is
instructive. When the Boer prisoners
of war return they will find in nine
cases out of ten that their homesteads
have been burned down and scarcely a
head OF stock left" They will be des-
titute and their only hope of subsis-
tence will be in the sale of their land
for whatever a speculative company
may choose to give.

POLITICAL PLANS.
THE REAPPoINTMENT SUBJECT
UP FOR CONSIDERATION.
Tho Result Of the Next Presidential Elec-
tion May Depend Upon the Plan Adopt
ed--Before Dismissal Harrison Asked
for Court of Inquiry.

Washington, d. c., December 15.-
Political considerations will enter
largely into the reappointment Of rep
resentatives in congress- and presiden-
tial electors under the new census.
Two distinct plans are proposed and
the result of the next presidential cleo
tion may depend on which one is
adopted. Representative Hopkins of
Illinois, chairman Of the census COM
mittee, has prepared bill which pre-
serves the total membership Of the
house and thep resent number of pres
idential electors. On the basisiof the
electoral vote in November the polit-
ical gains and losses under the Hop
kins bill exactly counterbalance each
other and. neither party would have
an advantage. tf,t
Mr.. Burleigh Of Maine has intro
duced bill, drawn so as to prevent
the reduction of representation in any
State, which increases the member
ship Of the house and the number of
electoral votes by thirty and gives the
republicans net gain OF ten electors.
1t would also give the republicans an
advantage in the house, although as
the political complexion Of the con-
gressional district depends upon the
action of the State legislature in re-
districting the States, this cannot be
estimated exactly. ~ ~
Under the Hopkins bill, which makes
population of 206,866 the basis Of
representation, these States will gain:
Illinois, Louisiana, Minnesota, New
Jersey, New York and West Virginia,
one each; Texas, two. These States
will lose one each: Indiana, Kansas,
Kentucky, Maine, Nebraska, Ohio, Vir-
ginia and South Carolina.
Under the Burleigh bill, which makes
1885 population the basis of repre-
sentation, no State will lose and these
will gain: Illinois, New York and
Texas, three each; Minnesota, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania, two each;

necticut, Florida, Iowa. Louisiana'
Massachusetts, Mississippi. Missouri,
-ss4ris sasz firsf, f5aseotiais iiisif- Z
ington, West Virginia and Wisconsin,
one each.
The census committee will take up
these bills today and present prospects
point to the reporting of the Burleigh
bill by majority, A combination is
being worked up in the house between
those States which would lose by the
Hopkins bill and those which will
gain by the Burleigh bill, and it is
probable that even democrats may be
influenced by the desire to increase the
Importance of their State to disregard
the increase of the republican vote in
the electoral college and support the
Burleigh bill.
