Secretary Roots
Visit To Cuba.

Cuban affairs during his recent visit
there and it is hoped that the result
of his tour trough the island will re-
suit In prompt settlement of affairs
there. While in Havana Mr.. Root
addressing members of the Planters
Association in Havana said he un.
derstood that distrnst existed as to
the carrying out of the joint resol-
ution of the United States congress.
He added, however, that the Anne,

every obligation, and that conse.

+" boxers" i" was The Rev. Mr. Brooks,
an Euglishman, who was member
of the Anglican mission at Ping.
Yin, Shanfung. Mr.. Brooks left
the mission to spend the Christmas
holidays with his sister, who lived
some distance away. While pass
ing through village on the way to
his destination, he was attacked by
about thirty men, armed with kni,
YES. TO escape his asaiIants, he en-
tered tempe and pleaded for aid
from the head men of the village,
which they refused, and he was ejec.
ted from the building. He soas sci
zed by the sboxers", his clothing
removed, and with the therinome-
ter about fifteen degrees above zero
he was led to another village. Viii
lie his guards were eating their neon
day meal Mr.. Brooks managed to
escape, bnt was pursued by three
horsemen, who overlook him and
'cut off his head with a sword.
The Governor of the province,
who has since been depOsed. sent q
cavalry force to rescue Mr.. Brooks,
but he was dead before it reached
the scene of the outrage. The En-
giish Minister at Pekin made strong
representations to the Pekin govern

hend and punish the men guilty d
the crime.
Ithas been reported that the "bo.

Army Bill Debate.
The Amount Asked For Cri--
ticised By Representative
Wheeler.

In the House of Representatives,
during the debate on the army bill,
Mr.. Wheeler Dem. KY. criticised
the statement frequently made that
military operations in the Philippi
nes for the last eighteen nonths had
cost but $48, 900, 900, while $780,
600, 600 was asked for our military
establishment for year. Where
does the rest of the money go to .
he asked. ~
Mr. Moody tRtP. Mass. replied
that an answer to this question, pre-
sented as resolution of inquiry,
had been received 5y the insular af-
fairs committee, and that it had o..
tisfied the Democratic minority.
Mr.. Hull tRep., la. said that
Secretary Roots account was of ac-
tual expenses on Philippine territory
and did not include equipment to
go there, or incidental expenses en-
route, or it would have been much
larger. The cost of military Oper-
atiOnS had been found as a rule, he
said, to average $1,000 man. Mr..
Wheeler still contended that there
Was great disparity between the
ccst of what was 80 per cent. of our
military burden and the appropria.
tions now asked for twelve months.
The item providing for the cons
truction of military telegraph and
cable line between st. Michael and
Cape Nome was next considered.
Mr.. McRae [Deln., Ark did not
see the use OF this appropriation,
which was for 100000, but Mr.
Hull made its purpose clear by hs-
wing letters read from Secretary
Root and Uhief Signal Officer Gre
ely in its advocacy.
Mr.. Mann [Rep., Ill. thought
the cable would be of commercial
rather than of military use, and
should be constructed by the Post.
Office instead Of the War Depart
ment.

tragedies reported in the War Office
dispatches. Her rest is seriously
disturbed oy cares Of state, and
has been SO since the beginning of
hostilities 1t is feared that this load
may be too great for her enfeebled
shoulders, aud after the emergency
is past, 1t would not be surprising if
she collapsed, in which event the
Prince could not leave. Many er
sons believe that no matter what
happens, some high representative
of the crown will make..the tour of the
colonies. If the Prince Of Wales
cannot go, probably his eldest son,
the Duke of York, will take his pla-
ce.
There is some talk that the Com
mander in Chief Of the forces in
ireland, the Duke of Connaught,
may also make the trip, with the OBJ .
ject of collecting data Of military i'm.
portance. The Duke enjoys high.
reputation for strategical acumeD,
and very probably Lord WOlseley
would place high value on report
from him on the subject of the mill.
tary aspect Of a federated empire.
BritOns regard the spirit Of imperial
union as the most lnomentous result
of the war, and they intend assidu-
ously to foster the ideal.

in warm praise; but there is another
reason why he probably will include
the Unites States in his world en-
bracing itinerary, if he finally deci-
des to make the trip. That reason
lies in the fact that he looks with ap,
proval on the idea Of an Anglo.
American entente, and wises to do
as much as his dignity will permit
to promote it.
II is thought that just one thing
may be looked on as likely to dissua.
