WEBSTER DAVIS TO LECTURE.
VIII Resign and Deliver Public Ad-
dresses on Boer War.

Kansas City, April LA Journal spe-
cial from Washington, says:
Webster Davis of Kansas City, will to-
morrow tender his resignation to the
President as Assistant Secretary of the
Interior. Mr.. Davis decided 90 take this
course as the result of his visit TO South
Africa. He has decided to deliver a
public address touching the entire scope
of the present war, and believes that he
can best do so while free from any re-
straint which his present position would
impose upon him.
When taking his departure for home
from Pretoria, 1000 people gathered to
take leave of him at the station. They
appealed toahim in tears to state their
cause to the American people, and Mr.
Davis says his conscience would haunt
him If he proved recreant to that pitiful
appeal.
He believes the American people are not
truly Informed on the situation He will
therefore avail himself of an early op-
portunlty to relate his experience and OBJ
servatious at public meeting that shall
be free TO all
Mr.. Davis has decided on this course af-
ter mature deliberation and free consul
tation with his friends.

ALaUE ANSWERS POTTER.
Takes Him to Task for Statements
About the Clergy.


New York, April 1.-Rev. Joseph NJ.
Alque, director of the observatory at Ma
nila, who is now in Washington engaged in
official business of the government, has is
sued statement in reply to Bishop Henry
C, Potter and his secretary, Rev. Percy
S. Grant, regarding affairs in the Philip
pines.
Calling attention TO the published inter
views in which the Bishop and his secre-
tary are quoted as having declared that
the taxes and fees for prlestly administer
tions in the Philippines are excessive, The
writer points oat that the Bishop and his
secretary were in the Philippines but a
very short time, not over three or four
days; that ii was impossible, on account
of the war, for them to get Information
outside of Manila and that the more Sc
rious of the people ignored their presence
there.
The Bishop was quoted as saying that
the religious orders, except perhaps the
Jesuits, have robbed the people. The
writer says the Jesuits have missions in
only the Southern Islands, and Gen.
Bates in a report of the 9th of last
December, stated that the people there
had declared that the missionaries had
taken neither money nor property. The
writer wants the Bishop to explain his
use Of perhaps" Further quoting his
interview, he calls upon Bishop Potter
for facts to prove such grave and
serious charge"
Now, the Bishops main point the
statement continues. lis, to prove that the
religious orders have robbed the people
But if the people pay the necessary
charges for these certificates willingly
how can it be called robbery? 1t is not
clear from the Bishops words whether
the charge in each case be from s. to 50
for all the certificates together, or for each
certificate for each party, which would
cause quite a difference, from $40 to $50;
nor is it clear whether the So to IS is es-
timated in Mexican money or our own.
But il is worth while disputing this point
because the facts are that the fees in the
Philippines are not as high as he asserts.
The fees for marriages among native In
dams amount to $175; among Mestizos,
So 25; among white people about $4. For
Door people there is no tax at all as l
can show by numerous instances"

PARTY LINES ARE NOT CLOSE.
Interesting Situations In Ohio NUM-
cfpaI Elections.


Cincinnati. April 1.-The annual munich
pal and township elections occur in Ohio
tomorrow. The contests involve the con-
troll OF party organizations as we'll as To-
cal offices.
In Cincinnati IT is the old fight against
George b. Cox as the local Republican
leader The regular Republican ticket is
headed by Col Julius F1eischmann for
Mayor, and the fusion ticket by State
Senator Alfred NJ. Cohen. The latter tick
ct is equally divided i'm the nominations
between Democrats and anH-Cox Republi-
cans Cohen Is a Democrat. Both Candi-
dates for Mayor are prominent Hebrews.
The fusion ticket won easily three years
ago, but the result will be so close 90
morrow that parts of each ticket will like
ly be elected.
In Cleveland and Toledo the factionai
fighting has made the situations peculiar.
Senator Hanna is quite an issue In both
those cities. In Cleveland there have been
many meetings, but none in Cincinnati.
In Toledo. Mayor Samuel Jones is fac
tor for municipal ownership, especially of
the natural gas pipe line.
In Columbus only minor officers VIII he
elected, but a fight over street railway
franchises magnihes the City Council into
parliamentary dimensions.
In Dayton. Mayor Lindermuth, with q
full ticket. stands for reelection with a.
fight against DIR. J. +. Loves as the Re
publican leader, and an issue for CHEAPER
city lighting.
These local issues, factonaI fights and
oppositions to alleged bosses indicate that
party lines will not be drawn closely. The
women are taking an active part in the
contests for members Of boards of educa-
ton. for which offices they are electors,
and in many cases. candidates.

Frankfort, Ky, April 1.-The convening
of the April term of the Franklin Circuit
Court tomorrow with Judge Cantrill sit
ting, marks the beginning of the final
legal proceedings against the alleged as
sassins of the late Gov. Goehel. and OH

The session of the court will be taken
up mainly tomorrow with preliminaries
The names of the grand jurors viii not

ways vigorous and comprehensive, is
looked forward to with more than ordi-
nary interest.
The grand jury will probably get into
working order by Tuesday and the as
sassination case will be the first matter
taken up. IL is understood that Com
monwealths Attorney Franklin, who will
conduct the prosecution on the part of the
state, has had subpoenaes issued for many
important witnesses, and others will be
issued as soon as the court gets down to
work.
The names of the suspects who have al
ready been arrested and whose cases
have been referred to the grand jury for
investigation are: Republican Secretary
of State Caleb Powers, Judge w. l.. Ha-
zelip, Lakeland; Henry Youtsey. Frank
fort; j. L. Sutton, Williamsburg; Harland
Whitaker, Butler county: Silas Jones,
Whitley county, and John Davis, Frank
fort
Warrants are also out for ex-Secretary
of State Charles Finley, Capt. John l..
Powers of Knox county, and "Tallow
Dick Combs (colored), all of whom. ex-
cept the last named, have not yet been
arrested.
1t is not probable any indictments will be
returned before the latter part Of the week
at the earliest, and if the prosecution
makes good its claims, the investigation
will involve a large number of others
against whom indictments will be return
ed.
The general impression prevails that
none of the trials will come UP at the
present term, and II is understood that
the defense probably in every case win
move for change OF venue of some other
county on account of the heated state Of
public feeling here.
Republican Adjutant General Daniel r.
Collier, so far as known, is the only one of
the Republican contestants who is in the

treated rightly and that he intended wip-

brothers and a sister. Then, descending
to the parlor, he slipped up behind Shaw,
