capture of a white woman and her little
child by Indians. After the Indians had
gone some distance with their captives
the mother told the child to drop down
from the pony and hide in the grass, and
after all had passed to run to camp. The
child dropped from the pony as she was
told, but never reached camp. COmrads

SEEKS FORTUNE IN MANILA.
Oscar sutro to Be Resident Partner Of
New San Francisco Firm.

Oscar Sutro, San Francisco assem-
blyman, who is on his way to seek his
fortune in Manila, is a passenger on
the steamship Nippon Maru, now in
port. He goes to the Philippines to
establish himself as resident partner
of the new law firm of Pillsbury &
Sutro.
Mr.. Sutro has been practicing law in
San Francisco for some years. During
the last campaign he made his first APP
pearance as candidate, and by Wig
|orous campaign he beat Henry c. DID
BILE, one of the strongest candidates for
the Assembly from any of the city dis
tricts. His record in the Legislature
was clean and creditable, and he re-
turned to his district with every pros
pect of being offered further honors.
In the new firm he will be associated
with E. S. Pillsbury. 1t has for some
time been the purpose of Mr.. Pillsbury
to establish a branch of his business
in Manila and when Mr.. Sutro was Of
fered and had accepted the position of
resident partner there, the firm was
formed at once. Mr.. Pillsbury repre-
sents clients who are seeking invest
ment whenever possible, and it is more
than probable that Mr.. Sutro will soon
terests which the firm viii care for.
If the climate will permit him, Mr..
Sutro will remain in the Philippines

the Territory. He replied that the
funds now under the control of his de-
partment were very low, and would not
be replenished until September LIST,
when the usual collection on personal
property and real estate would
begin. Then about 100000 would
be placed to the credit of the Territory

from the usual taxes. I don't know how
the income tax bill will come out. If
the loan bill passes, the only way por-
ton of the money secured can be used
in the expenses Of the government out
side of public improvements, is by
transferring the funds to current ac-
count.
"At present the salaries and payrolls
of the Territory eat up about one-half
of the revenue. That leaves just one
half of the receipts for public improve
ment. / have not made up my state
ment yet of the finances, but expect
shall be called upon by the Legislature
to do SO. The present salaries and pay

year.

There must be more money obtained
somehow. Unless the loan bill passes
and part of the funds so derived are

will be a large deficit Retrenehment
is needed at once, and reduction of
payroll expenses to $4,000 per month"

some excellent work in his serious
scene of the last act. Kunkel as Lord
Allcash was effective.
