DEWEY TAKES A HAND.
Greater Efforts VIII Be Put Forth to Block
AIDE Philippine Ports and Cut Off
Insurgents Supplies.

Washington, Feb. 12.-There will be
a close cooperation of the army, navy
and marine corps for the establish
ment of peace in the Philippines when
the new army begins to arrive in the
Philippines. There will be a closer
blockade of ports and the marines
will be utilized as far as they will go
to constitute garrisons for new places
on the coast which will he invested.
Admiral Dewey has taken hand in
the practically new plans to crush out
the rebellion. The board will, of
course, not publish its plans, but
enough is known to state that greater
attention will be paid to the securing
of tight blockade of all the places at
or near which it is suspected supplies,
and especially arms and ammunition,
have been reaching Aguinaldo's army.
The navy has a large number of great
and small vessels in the Philippines,
and it is expected that with a we'll
directed use of these the FihPinos in
the next campaign will be cut off
from all outside aid.

RIOT AT ST. LOUIS.
Democratic Primary in That City Was the
Cause of Great Disorder in Some
Precincts-Weus for Mayor.

ST. Louis, Feb. 12.-More than $50
shots were fired, a sergeant of police
and two negroes were wounded and
a ballot box was stolen in the course
of a riot about the Second district
polling place of the Fourth ward, at
Twelfth and Linden streets, early
yesterday evening: 1t was only after
riot call had brought Capt. Kelly
with 40 police and riot guns to the
scene that a semblance of order was
restored. Even then the streets were
filed with negroes and some white
men, all of whom were armed, many
of them intoxicated and looking for
trouble. Not a ballot was cast there
during the day.
Rolla Wells will be nominated by
the democratic city convention to-
day for mayor. He swept % of the
% wards in the primaries yesterday.
Ed Noonan and Zack Tinker ran on
the regular democratic ticket and
each had a strong following. The
keen fight between the three men
brought out the party almost to a
man. twenty-five men from Chicago
were arrested early in the action on
the charge that they had come here
for the purpose of repeating. Charges
and counter charges of repeating
were rife all day.

Vienna, Feb. 12.-Ex-King Milan, OF
Servia, is dead. He succeeded, at the
early age of IA, really admirable
ruler, Prince Michael Obernowitz,
who was massacred on June TO- 1868.
That day stands out in Servian his
tory as day doubly cursed, for on it
an admirable sovereign disappeared
and Servia fell into the hands of Milan.
Milan married at the age of 20, tho
beautiful young Russian girl, Natalie
Kechko, to whom his horrible con-
duct has been one of the reasons why
King Milan is eXecrated by all those
familiar with his life. Thirteen years
after he pronounced the dissolution
of his marriage and abdicated in IA
vor of his only child, who was pro-
claimed king under the title of Alex

Young Men for Judges.

In choosing federal judges President
Mckinley has shown an unwilling
ness to appoint men who have passed
the age of so, and has even expressed
a preference for men under 40 when
ever available ones can be found. He
thinks the judges on the federal
bench should be men in the prime of
life when appointed, SO as to insure
physical as well as mental strength
for the duties of the office and to al
low reasonable number of years of
active service before retirement.

Leading Senators and Members of Cabin 6
Think Cuba VIII Necessitate an Ex-
ira Session of Congress.

Washington, Feb. 12.-In the opin-
ion of many leading senator's, most of
the cabinet, and probably of the presi-
dent himself, conditions in Cuba have
made an extra session of congress
necessary. These conditions have not
changed materially, but there seems
no chance of securing early action on
the Cuban constitution, and the presi-
dent considers the question of leav-
ing or staying in Cuba entirely too
serious to be settled by himself
alone, without help of congress.

NfacArthur's proclamation of Deem
Der 20, designating all ''who do any
thing inimical to the interests of the
occupying army as "war rebels or
traitors, punishable at the discretion
of the tribunals of the occupying
army" was a proposition that all who
ran might read, especially since print
ed copies in various languages were
extensively circulated through all the
districts. The term during which am
