NO SOLDIER PUT TO DEATH.
The President In Every Case Since the Bs-
ginning Of the Spanish War, Hbs
Used Executive Clemency.

Washington, Jan. 21.-At the wa.
department the statement was made
Saturday that no soldier of the UniteC
States since the beginning of the
Spanish-American war has suffered
the death penalty for either military
or criminal offenses. This news will
cause surprise in view of the general
impression that several military
deaths of soldiers who had committed
crimes had occurred in the Philip
pines. 1t is true that in many cases
soldiers have been convicted by court.
martial and sentenced to death, but
in every instance the president has
extended clemency. This has not met
with the approval of the war depart
ment. where the idea prevails that
good discipline requires punishment
at times, but the president in each
incident has found cause for. saving
the lives of the convicted soldiers
and probably will continue that pol.
icy until some case of particularly
atrocious character arises.

MINISTER wU's OPINION.
Chinese Minister Talks About Lynching ~
Leavenworth : Believes Whites and
Blacks Should Intermarry. a

Cleveland, o., Jan. 21.--Wu Ting
Fang, the Chinese minister, while on
his way to st. Louis, was interviewed
here concerning the recent lynching
at Leavenworth, Kan. He said.
what do think of lynching? Well,
that is strictly an American institu-
ton. China has been accused of many
barbarities, but lynching is not one
OF them. Burning that poor fellow in
Leavenworth ut the stake-ugh! the
very idea makes me shudder. And he
died protesting his innocence. Guilty
men don't do that. But 1 don't I'M
derstand it all. You brought the
black man here against his will. You
made him free, or the great Lincoln
did. Then You declared him equal to
the white man, but you denied him
equality. He cannot hold office-that
is, you seldom elect him to one. He
can't serve on jury, although he has
the right, and he is still slave, So
cially.
The difficulty seems to me that
You regard him as a savage and treat
him as such. He feels himself an out
law and acts accordingly. Now, why
not assimilate him benevoIently?
There is only one way to do this, and
that is to make him white, not only
IN color, but in nature. 1 have not
given the subject extensive study, but
L would say encourage the negro men
to marry white women and urge ne
gro women to marry white men"

Washington, Jan: 19.!The republi-

ing up the Nicaragua canal bill The
decision was reached after a caucus
and was unanimous. So long as
Great Britain's attitude toward the

wise, they say, to agitate the ques-
ton of the construction of the pro-

!: y. Shorter Duty Tours Probable.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Reports from
the Philippines indicate great deal
of sickness prevailing among both
naval and army officers on duty in the
archipelago. Long terms of duty in
these islands are likely to impair the
most robust constitution, according
to the views of army and navy med
ical officers, and limitation of duty
tours in the Philippines to period of
two years is strongly advocated.

MORE JOINTS SPOILED.
drs. Carrie Nation. Accompanied by Three
Other Women, Wreck Two
wichita Saloons,

Nation came back to Wichita yester-
day to avenge her recent incarcer.
alton under a smallpox quarantine,
and the net result of ten minutes Of
her work in the afternoon are two
wrecked saloons, the pieces of which
were sold last night for souvenirs.
Mrs. Nation was assisted by Mrs.
Julia Evans, Mrs. Lucy Wilhert and
Mrs. Lydia Muntz, all of the local w.
G. T. U. organization. With hatchets
concealed under their cloaks they en-
tered the saloon of James Burnes, on
Douglas avenue, and did not leave a
complete piece of glass or working
slot machine in the place. All show
cases, both liquors and cigars, as well
as the plate-glass windows and doors,
were broken into smithereens. With
lightning speed they ran to John Her.
rigs saloon and had everything in
the front room, including the plate
glass windows, broken when he ap-
-peared with a revolver, placed it at
Mrs. Nations head and said that he
would blow out her brains if she did
not desist. She yielded before the
pointed revolver and with her COM
panions ran to the Carey hotel bar
where she made her initial attack on
the saloons of Wichita three weeks
ago. There three policemen met her
and she struck Detective Sutton with
poker. He showed her aside and
some prohibition youth struck him in
the face. Officer Prizer struck the
youth and knocked him down. The
officers then overpowered Mrs. Nation
and her friends and took them to the
city prison, followed by 1000 people
Mrs. Evans little daughter pushed
her way through the crowd, scream
ing, and begged for the release of her
mother, but Officer Fox was deaf to
her entreaties.
Chief of Police Cubbon discharged
the prisoners after they reached the
Jail and is heartily condemned by the
citizens. They made him promise
not to wreck any more saloons be.
fore noon to-day. Mrs. Evans hand
was badly cut by broken glass and
her husband, who is physician,
sewed it up.
After leaving the city building Mrs.
Nation, in the most cool manner, be-
gan street lecture to the immense
crowd that had surrounded the city
building, saying that she expected to
begin saloon wrecking again at noon
to-day, when her truce with the chief
of police expires. Shaking her fist at
the crowd she said: "Men of Wichita,
this is the right arm of God and is
destined to wreck every saloon in
your city"
The women procured a wagon and
rode through the streets in it singing
Nearer, My God, to Thee and kim
dred hymns. They halted in front of
the saloons they had smashed and held
prayer meetings.
The damage done by the three wom-
en- is estimated at between ST 500 and
S., 900.
Afterwards Mrs. Nation, Mrs. Will.
bert and Mrs. Evans were arrested by
Sheriff Simmons and locked up in the
county Jail. Mrs. Muntz could not be
found.

THEIR SENTENCES COMMITTED
PRESIDENT Mckinley Grants Three Applica

Terms of Other Convicts.

Washington. Jan. 22.-President
Mckinley yesterday received II appli-
cations for pardons and granted three
applications, RENTED one fine and

First national bank of Lebanon, Pa,
sentenced May Is, 1899, to five years
in the Eastern penitentiary for mis-
application of the funds, is granted a
communication of sentence to two
years. The president believes Shift
ler's sentence was excessive. The
amount of his defalcation was but
1924, while that of the cashier of the
bank at about the same time was
more than 100000. The cashier, Hof-
fer, was given only six years.
Willis b. Hoch, who was sentenced
to six years and six months for en-
bezzlement of $4,000 from the South
Bethlehem, Pa, national bank No
vember %, 1897, is granted commu-
tation to four years with good be-
havior. 1t was shown that Hoch was
implicated with the cashier in con-
cealing the latter's stealings from the
bank officials. The cashier finally
fled and Hoch, learning this fact,
seized package of money from the
vault and escaped. He shortly after
ward returned the money and gave
himself up to the authorities. The
president believes Hoch has been suffi-
GENTLY punished.
