In this hour OF gloom one could not

Mckinley, unwittingly and ignorantly
awakened the baser spirit which led TO
this awful deed. To their own minds and
remorse the public would leave these mis-

MORE PLANS OF ECONOMY.

Washington. July 23-Ohicials OF the War De-
partment were greatly interested in The Associ-
ated Press cable dispatches from Manila announc-
ing determination to make reductions in the ex-
penses in the Philippines. This is in accord with
the instructions of Secretary Root, who has given
verbal orders all who have the handling of dis
bursenents that War Department expenses must
be reduced to peace footing. 1t has been sug-
gested means Of reducing expenses that a
large portion Of the food supplies now shipped from
the United States be raised in the Philippines. 1t
is believed that vegetables for the men and grain
and hay for the animals be raised there. The
quartermaster's department now sends $500 tons
of oats and 5000 tons Of hay to the Philippines
each month.
The proposed reduction of the force in the islands
will not make a corresponding reduction IN these
supplies, as 1t is proposed to keep cavalry and
artillery there. and send home infantry regiments

MORE SAVING AT MANILA
TRANSPORTS DIRECT TO NEW-YORK
HOPED FOR IN RESULT.

Manila. July 23-The reports submitted TO
Adjutant-General Corbin by Major James B.
Aleshire. in charge Of the water transportation
department Of the army at Manila, show the
saving of $1,000 daily for the last three months.
Since Major Aleshire took charge of this de-
partment the number of vessels chartered by the
government as transports ETC.. has been reduced
from ten to five, and the number of lighters and
launches chartered by the government has
been reduced by one-half- The concentration of
the American troops under three brigades at
Manila, Dagupan and Iloilo Cebu will further
reduce the army's need Of launches
1t is expected, In view OF this economy. to op-
crate some transports direct between Manila
and New-York-
Adjutant-General Corbin recommends the use
OF two OF the fastest transports in a monthly
mail service between San Francisco and Manila
to insure quick handling of the mails.

TIE MAINE COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL.

SOME OPPOSITION TO IT'S PREsENTATIoN-coM-
MENr ON KINGS SPEECH
London. July 23.-Much gossip in American and
English circles has been caused by the presentation
to King Edward yesterday by the hospital ship
Maine committee Of medal commemorative of the
Names work. with request that the King trans
NIT the medal to Queen Alexandra. 1t seems that
the idea was opposed by number of influential
members OF the committee the ground that the
King did not want the medal but the others carried
the day.
The Kings reply to the delegation which made
the presentation is causing comment, as he
thanked this American committee for their
loyal, dutiful sentiments" he did the Kansas
legislature in answering it's telegram of condolence
on the Queens death, and he also thanked the
committee for bringing it's valuable services to a
elimination by presenting the ship TO the govern
ment, whereas this done solely by Bernard M.
