ANOTHER DISASTER.
A Detachment Of tho Ninth Regi.
ment Attacked by Bolomen.
CUSBOATS DISPATCHED TO Scene.


Manila, Oct. 19.-Five hundred bolo-
men attacked q detachment OF 40
men ofthe Ninth infantry at Bangajon,
on the Gandara river, island OF Samar,
Wednesday, killing ten and wound
ing six. The remainder of the COM
pany arrived on the scene in time to
prevent further slaughter and routed
the enemy, killing over 100 Of them.
It is believed that tho enemy only
retired for reinforcements. As soon
40 the news was received at Catbalo-
gan two gunboats were dispatched,
Gen. Smith going in person to the
scene. The men attacked were OF
company Il, under command OF First
Lieut.. George W. Wallace.
Con. Otis Speaks About samar.
Chicago, Oct. 1o.-"The island OF
Samar is the worst country l ever
campaigned over" said Gen. Elwell
s. Otis last night. There are no roads
and the troops are compelled to cut
their way through the heavy under
brush. In this way the natives creep
up close to o detachment and either
bolo the men or shoot and escape
into the long grass and vegetation
without danger. Lukban and about
$50 refugee Tagolos are the instiga-
tors of these surprises. They engage
the aid of the bolomen on promises
of easy victories and plenty OF loot"
War Department Somewhat Dismsysd.
Washington, Oct. 1.-THE war de-
partment officials were somewhat dis
mayed at the press report Of the new
setback on the island Of Samar. The
Ninth infantry, which suffered there,
was the same organization that en-
gagged in the latest fight at Banga-
Jon. An inspection of the dispositions
made of the troops On the island OF
samar shows that before the Bala-
ganga fight there were no less than
50 separate posts. These we're so dis.
posed that supplies could be conveyed
to the troops by water
Against Reducing the Force.
Washington, Oct. 10.--President
| Roosevelt received cable message
from Gen. Chatfee, of the Philippines
urging that there be no reduction in
the present force of $4,000 men consti-
tuting the enlisted military strength
Of his command. Adit. Gen. Corbln
i has recommended that the force be
reduced to $4,000 men. Gen. Cha1fee
believes that such action would be
hazardous to our interests and would
encourage revolts among the natives
whom he describes as being, in somt
sections, treacherous.

ment of agriculture has completed

ENGINEERS IN NAVY.
Admiral Melville Makes a Report
on the Subject.
The new ISTHMIAy CANAL TREATY.


Washington, Oct. 10.-That there
has been retrogression rather than
an advance along engineering lines
in the navy during the past two years
is the most significant statement con-
tanned in the annual report Of Ad-
miral George Melville, engineer-in-
chief Of the navy. He says that this
is not the time to entertain tho sug-
gestion frequently made that q sepa-
rate engineer corps should again be
created. He quotes an expression Of
President Roosevelt, when assistant
secretary Of the navy-'Every officer
on q modern warship has to be q
fighting engincer'-in support OF his
urgent recommendation that the
yrYng candidates Of Annapolis be not
allowed to specialize altogether in
other directions, but that they be as.
s'yned in fair proportions to the err
gineering divisions. He says that II
INST either come to this or the war.
rant officers, upon when are falling
all engineering duties, must receive
commissioned rank. Admiral Mel
vile declares that the number OF
trained and expert naval engineers
Is being reduced steadily and the re-
duction is certain to become the
,olc rapid as the old officers take adj
vantage of the retirement law. He
co,nts to the disaolenn.nt Of torpedo
beats as q striking result of the lack
of engineers, for these poats have NO
c, mmissioned engineers. On the
other hand he proudly calls attention
to the overtaking Of the 2o-knot Co.
lon by the 16-knot Oregon as an ex-
ample OF what can be achieved by
trained and educated engineer Off
GERS. Therefore be advises that q
large number of Junior officers be
sent to the navy yards TOR practical
engineer training; that post grade
engineering course be established at
Annapolis; that stokers be specially
trained; that torpedo boats be used
to train machinists; that naval ma
chinists be given special instructions
on repair work at navy yards; that
deserving naval machinists, after 20
years service be given navy yard
duty; that warrant machinists be
placed on the same footing as other
warrant officers and that special pay
be allowed water tenders of torpedo
boats.

The New Isthmian Canal Treaty.

Washington, Oct. t9.-Lord Paunce-'
fote will sail for the United States
on the Goth inst, before the British
cabinet council has had an oppor-
tanity to review the protocols which
embody in principle the proposed new
Hay-Pauncefote canal treaty. 1t is
thought here, however, that that fact
will not delay sensibly the final ne.
gotiations, which will take place here
between Secretary Huy and Lord
Pauncefete, for 1t is the Intention
that the. new treaty shall be finally
drafted and signed in the city OF
Washington. 1t is said that when the
new document is framed the "forti-
fcations" clause will have been found
to have dropped out, leaving the
United States at liberty to fortify
the canal, but it is distinctly stated
that ii is not obligated to do so, and
in fact there is no present intention
Of erecting Notifications which it Is
stated would be much more expensive
than fleet of battleships and less
useful.
Tho Torpedo School At Fort Totten.
Washington, Oct. 19.-The United
States torpedo school at Fort Totten,
N. Y, which was formerly a part OF
the engineer school OF application,
has been detached from that institu-
ton and hereafter will be operated
as an Independent organization un-
der the direction Of the lieutenant
general Of the army. Orders issued
yesterday assign Maj, Arthur Muir
ray, artillery corps, as the command
ant Of the tropedo school. The
school will be utilized for the specia
instruction OF officers in torpedoes
sunken mines and other submarine
iefenses.

4 Sensational Killing
From Tennessee

MEaPHIs, Tenn, April 27.-J. w.
Skinner. the wealthy dairyman who
was arresteda a few days ago in connec.
ton with the assassination of Doctor
Hall s. Scruggs, who was shot while re-
turning from professional call, was in
dicted by the grand jury OF the criminal
court Thursday afternoon. Skinner.
who was out on $50OO bail, awaiting the
action of the jury. was rearrested and
jliled last night. Skinner still denies
any knowledge of the crime.
Later developments strengthen the
theory that the crime was the result of a
plot, following political feud.
Detectives have learned that several
attempts were made the day before the
crime to lure the physician to Bing.
hampton, just outside of the town. He
answered one call to the town, but failed
to respond to second. On the first trip
he'was accompanied by friend named
Rawlings. It is now believed that had
he been alone he would have been assas.
sinated OF this trip.
