he might not reprimand the retired
naval officers who have been making
comments on the verdict of the Schley
court
The matter was discussed at the cab
met meeting, and President Roose-
welt took the position that everything
should now be allowed to drop in con-
nection with the matter. Secretary
Long had prepared letters to the Of
Tending officers, but it is doubtful if
these will be sent. They we're. couched
in much the same terms as that to
General Miles, and asked that they
explain their actions.
Several Of the presidents political
advisers have been talking very plain
lJ' to him regarding the political as
2eet of the controversy, and he is con-
sinced that his political future will be
endangered If he permits any more
fuel to be added to the fire.

has returned to the city from his brief
visit to New York. The general de.
clined to discuss the question of the
reprimand given him by the secretary
of war for his published observations
On the report of the verdict of the
court of inquiry in the Schley case, and
in reply to inquiries as to his future
course in the matter said he had nc
statement to make. He did say, how
ever, that the report that he would ap
ply for court of inquiry was entirely
unauthorized.

Constable Dillon Killed by Toughs at
Dingess, w. Va.
Williamson, w. Va.,> Dec. 26.-Sev-
s@al Logan county men rode into Din
CESS, few miles west of here and
while intoxicated rode up and down
the business streets firing revolvers at
random. The citizens fed in terror as
the plate glass windows were being
cracked by flying bullets. In the party
were Walter Adams and John Mullens,
half brothers. Constable John Dillon
arrived later and attempted to arrest
the men, when a regular street duel
occurred, probably 20 shots being fired.
Constable Dillon and John Mullens
were killed instantly and Adams was
slightly wounded. The latter mounted
his horse and rode rapidly to the in
terror.
Dillon was prominently known The
excitement is intense, and should
Adams be captured, a lynching may
occur.

RAISE FOR EMPLOYEES.
Viii Increase Company's Expenses a
Quarter Of Million.

Philadelphia, Dec. 26.-The Union
Traction company, which controls ev-
cry street car line in this city and en-
ploys upwards OF 5000 motormen and
conductors, will increase these mems
wages from 1S to 19 cents an hour on
Jan. l. This is the result of much
agitation among the employees for some
time A meeting of the men was held
several days ago and vote was taken
on the question of declaring a strike.
The men opposed to striking won. The
increase means an additional expense
by the company Of more than $780,
600.
Eighteen months ago the company
voluntarily granted an increase of ~
cents an hour.

MILLS SHUTTING DOWN.
Car Shortage in Pfttsburg District
Worse Than Ever Before.

Pittsburg, Dec. 26.-The car short
age in the Pittsburg district is worse
than ever before, and as result many
mills are shut down or only in partial
operation. All of the mills along the
Allegheny Valley road, including the
Carnegie City mills, have suspended,
and it is probable that the big Carne-
gle company plants at Homestead and
Duquesne will be unable to resume for
week or more after the Christmas
holiday shut down. President Schwab
during his recent visit here said S3,-
100000 worth OF finished product was
piled UP in the yards of these two con-
Germs, with no prospect of removal.
Practically all Of the furnaces In
Mahoning and Shenango valleys are.

more wheat was wanted than offered

this is a basis to figure the quality Of

RAISE THE MEMS WAGES.
General Increase Talked of on Eastern
Roads.

Chicago, Dec. 26.-At special meet
ing Of the General Managers associa-
ton here, a movement was started
which is expected to result in a gen
eral increase in the wages of trainmen,
enginemen, firemen and switchmen Of
all the big railroad systems east Of
Chicago. These employees number
altogether several hundred thousand
men,
The meeting was called at the re-
quest of the Pennsylvania company,
the cause being the coal shortage and
the generally congested condition Of
traffic. It was agreed that a raise in
the wages of the employees would do
much toward stimulating them to bet
ter service. 1t was decided to recon-
mend this action to the management
of the several roads. -

Salina, Kan, Nov. I'll L. Jones,

Gently celebrated their golden wedding
anniversary. Mr.. Jones came to Kan
sas In 1855, locating first in Usage and
later in Shawnee county and in 1850 he
came to Saline county, where he has
resided ever since.
When Mr.. Jones came to this part OF
the state there was little here but cow
boys and Indians and Salina was a mere
village. During the early days he ex-
perienced all of the hardships of from
tier life. He was the first representa-
tive in the legislature from this part of
the state and during the border ruffian
days acted as a United States marshal.
He was the original Buffalo Jones"

HIGHEST IN TEN YEARS.
Cost of Living as Estimated by R. g.
Dun & Co.

New York, Nov. 7.-Dun's Review to
be issued November g. will say:
''Dun's index number, covering $50
questions, with due allowance for the
relative Importance of each, was $97, 343
on November l, an incraese of nine
tenths of one per cent for the month of
October and seven per cent as COM
pared with the same date last year. The
cost of living has now reached the high
est point of the decade, Notwithstanding
the cheapening of many manufactured
goods through improved process and the
absence of undue imitation in various
classes of steel products which was con-
spicuous in the spring of 1900, and
brought about the subsequent severe
reaction No artificial stimulus is re-
sponsible for the present high level of
manufactured products and aside from
some rise in food products due to short
crops, the present position of the index
number may be attributed to sound bus
mess conditions and full employment of
labor at high wages.
Prior to November 1, the top point
during the past ten years was March
Is. 1900, when the cost of living per cap
tia per annum was $97. 40.''
