REPORT OF BRIG. GEN. DAVIS,
tions as co the Army In
Porto Rico.

Recommends iOns as co the Army IN
Porto Rico.
Washington, Oct. 1.-THE war de-
partment has published the annual re-
port of Brigadier General Davis, de-
partment of Porto Rico. 1t states
that when the organization Of the
civil government shall have been COM
pleted and the civil machinery IS
working we'll there will be no neces-
sity to retain in the island so large
force as at present. He cannot,
however, CONCEIVE it possible to limit
the garrison to a force just sufficient
to take care of the guns at san Juan,
and he points out that the island Of
Porto Rico must have in the future,
as it has in the past, great military
Importance. Spain expended more
than 100000 on the Notifications OF
San Juan, and upon the surrender to
the United States for Notifications
were found to be of great strength
and the ornaments extensive. Cen
eral Davis adds: 1T is uncomfortable
that the United States will leave the
island without adequate protection OF
men, ships and guns, the only land

erected at San Juan. General Davis
saws the armament should be increas-
ed and modernized, and the guns cared
for by sufficient force of artillery
men. He says the experiment of util-
ling the natives as soldiers has prov
ed marked success. During the
year over 30.ouo,000 pounds of relief
supplies have been distributed by the
quartermaster's department. It has
been found impracticable to use
the native cattle for subsistence, and
the refrigerated beef from this coun-
try has been generally acceptable.
The cost OF the relief supplles IN aid
of. the hurricane sufferers was $751;
500. In the local elections General
Davis says there was never present at
or near ayosing place an armed force
and the ''the bayonet was conspicuous

IMPERIAL COURT MOVES.
Changes Its Place OF Abode to Safer

Changes Its Place OF Abode to Safer
g. Quarters. T.
Washington, Oct. 9.--The effort to
induce the Chinese imperial court to
return to Pek,ng has failed, after 9
weeks persistent effort on the part
of the powers. News TO that effect
was brought to the state department
by the Chinese minister, who received
it in a message via st. Petersburg
from Viceroys Liu Kuans Yih and
Chang Chih Tunk, undo date Of De-
tober: T. An important feature of the
message is the confession TINT the
court Ia restrained by fear of the al
lied forces from returning to Peking.
The movement takes the emperor and
empress dowager about 300 miles fur
ther away from Picking, though ac-
cording to statements contained IN
the message, by reason Of direct tele-
graphic communication with Shang-
hal, the court will practically be
nearer for purposes OF negotiation
with the outside world than it was at
Tai Yuen.

Peking, Oct. I, via Shanghai, Oct.
Ga small body of imperial Chinese
troops appeared at Pei Tai Chu yes
tcrday. They informed the British
garrison their purpose was to dis
persc the Boxers, and they were not
molested by the British.
1t is announced the Germans will
winter 5000 men in Picking. British
reduction of force is in preparation
for winter. One thousand coolies will
start for India soon; and the Indian
cavalry will probably be withdrawn.
The volume of business being done
is steadily increasing, especially in
the Japanese and american districts

qncntly shipped a carload of horses

that he had a great genius for tral-

hrst-rate credit at the banks and
was heavy borrower on collateral
security. Since his abrupt leave il
has been found that mucl, of his col-
