The Government Only DoIes Out Rice Enough

nay, in which Is insurgents we're killed
and three captured. together with a
quantity OF arms and ammunition.
The news from General Hughes re-
garding conditions in the Island OF Cebu
is encouraging. Lorega has surrender
ed with his entire force and one cannon
and several rifles, while General Hughes
IS negotiating for the surrender OF Maxi
lot, who styles himself Governor Po-
iitico Militar." His surrender will
mean the pacihcation Of the province.
Lack OF food and the harassing et-
fects of the aggressive tactics now pur
sued by the American forces arc having
their influence upon the natives. In
many places where rice is doled out by
the government, only enough is given
for one meal, so that il is hardly pos
sible for any large quantity to find its
way to the insurgents.
1t is believed that the recent mani
festations in the Island OF Samar we're
chiefly due TO the lack OF food, the in
surgents finding it necessary to make
outlets to the coast in order TO obtain
this.
The first labor problem growing out
OF the new tariff has taken place. A
hat and umbrella factory, employing
600 hands, has found it necessary to
close. The lawyers are making a pro-
test to the Commission, urging protec-
ton, as the goods from Germany can
be sold here at half the prices it takes
to manufacture them here.
Dispatches from Catbalogan, Samar,
say that stringent and energetic meas
ures are taken to suppress the insurrec-
tion in that island. General Smith has
notified all the presidentes and head
men OF the pueblos that, in order to
avoid trouble, they must surrender all
arms and turn over the persons impli-
Gated in the Balangiga massacre.
Marines, under Major Littleton w.
Waller, have been stationed at Balan-

Second Time as an Accessory Before

Georgetown. Ky. (Special) - Ex-Sec-

convicted as an accessory before the fact
to the murder of William Goebel in Janu-
ary, 1900, and for the second time has
been sentenced to Imprisonment for life.
The second trial began October 8, and
has continued with three sessions daily,
court adjournng late at night. Argu-
ments were limited so that the case went
to the jury at 2 o'clock in the afternoon,
and a verdict of guilty soon followed.
Powers sat pale and motionless when
the verdict was announced by the fore
man, B. S. Calvert, his old schoolmate.
Opposite Powers on the other side Of the
courtroom, with the attorneys, sat Ar
thur Goebel, brother of the late COVER

The attorneys OF Powers shook his
hand, expressing their belief in his in

Women crowded around Powers, en-
bracing and kissing him, and tears we're
shed. The defense having filed a motion
for new trial, Judge Cantrill, at 2.3o

The jury was out only so minutes.

ruled. and the case will be appealed The
sentence was read and judgment sus-
pended pending the decision OF the higher

DR.. RIXEY'S REPORT.
His Record of McKinIey's Case Goes Deeply
Into Detail.

Washington, D. c. (Special) Tn the

official statement filed with the Surgeon
General of the Navy, by DR.. Presley NJ.
Rixey, Medical Inspector, United States
Navy, as the introduction for his report
upon the wounding illness and death of
President Mckinley. The cause of death
is thus stated:
"Gangrene OF both walls of stomach
and pancreas, following gunshot wound" 4"
The report itself is remarkable for its
exhibition in the closest possible detail
of the exact state of the patient during
his mortal illness. 1t is almost in the
shape of ships log, showing at inter
walls of very few minutes-sometme
single minute, rarely more than an hour
the patients progress toward the end
But perhaps the most valuable data
contained, from a medical point OF view,
is the accurate registering of the medi-
cation OF the case-not a single morsel
of food nor dose of medicine nor
bath is omitted in this account. Includ-
ed in the running story at the proper in
tervals are the bulletins which were given
to the public as the case progressed.

Caught BY Flames.

horrifying. Men and women met death
in sight of thousands of spectators who
were unable to lift hand to their assist
ance. The rear of Hunt, Wilkinson &
Co.'S building abuts on Commerce street
a small thoroughfare Employees who
started down the fire escape on that side
of the building before the flames were
visible from the street were compelled to
jump before they had travelled two stories
because of the flames breaking through
the windows.
On the fire escape at this end of the
building two men and one woman were
slowly roasted to death while the horror
ed sick at the sight. In the front on Mar
ket street woman, driven to despera-
ton, leaped from a window on the top
floor and was dashed to death on the
pavement.
One woman leaped from window and
fell astride of an awning pole and her
body was torn almost in half. The corpse
hung in the air many minutes before the
fremen could recover it.
The dense smoke was responsible for
the loss of some lives. Firemen stood
on the pavement with life nets spread
ready to catch those who jumped, but
both victims and life-savers were so
blinded they could not see each other.
These are only few of the heart
rending scenes attending the conaagra-
ton. Firemen say they saw men and
women, unable to reach the windows or
fire escapes. burned to death in the in
terror of the building. If this be so little
or nothing remains of these victims, and
it is doubtful if any portion of their
bodies will be recovered.

Murdered Two. Wounded Another and Then
Committed Suicide.

Beechwood, small settlement eight
miles west OF this place, became sud-

the members OF the household with a
gun.
Two persons besides himself are dead

first to fall, being killed instantly by a
bullet through her head. Her father,
who went to her assistance, was shot
through the body and is believed to be
fatally wounded, The third victim was
Israelson's sister-in-law, and after shoot

in bed, was the aged mother of his wife
The flames had gained much headway

WOMAN GOES OVER FALLS.
She Suffered Severe Scalp Wound Over Her
Right Ear and Is Bruised.

Niagara Falls, N. Y. (SpeciaD y
Mrs. Anna Edison Taylor, widow, aged
43 years, born in Auburn, N. Y, went
over the Horseshoe Falls at Niagara in
a barrel and lives to tell the story OF her
experiences. To her belongs the credit
OF making the first attempt, and the
first success.
The barrel, with her in it, was set
adrift out in the river toward the Ca
madam side about mile up stream at
4.o5 O'Clock. 1t rode the waves and
rapids nicely, floating uprigh, very
similar to barrels going through the
whirlpool rapids. 1t remained upright
in passing over the falls, making the
leap on the Canadian side OF the centre.
1t Immediately reappeared in the low
er river and was carried down stream
and over into an eddy on the Canadian
side. 1t was 4.23 o'clock when it passed
the brink and 4.4o when it landed.
Mrs. Taylor was alive, but the rescu-
ing party had to saw off a portion OF
the barrel and take off one hoop to get
her out, for she was practically helpless.
She suffered severe scalp wound over
her right ear and is bruised, while the
shock was exceedingly severe upon her.
No bones were broken.
