ing several type written pages. The
plaintiffs are represented in the case

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of ships

Can't. Douglass of the schooner Ed
ward ]. Berwind was in trying dr.
lemma yesterday. His crew became
dissatisfied and would neither work,
allow others to work, nor go to sea.
Whatever their claims were, they in
sisted upon having a settlement &C
co1ding t. their terms. Capt. Doug
lass wanted the men either to work or
leave the vessel, both of which they
are claimed to have refused to do.
The result was he sought legal ad-
vice to ascertain the extent of his au-
thority in using force to put them
ashore. One man said the best and
surest way to put them ashore without
force was to clean out the pantry and
cut off rations. The captain was not
pleased with the delay his crew was
causing the Berwind.
The tug Dandy came over from Da-
rien yesterday. On her way she
picked up the Norwegian bark Pallas,
Capt johnson, bound for Savannah,
and towed her to the Plant System
wharf. The bark is in ballast, and is
consigned to Paterson, Downing & Co.
Work at the cotton presses keeps
them all running full time at present.
Most of them were running last night,
and night work has been necessary
for some time to keep up. The receipts
have been anywhere from two to three
times those for the corresponding days
last year, and the fact that vessels
are at the docks waiting for cargo
makes it necessary to prepare the cot
ton for shipment quickly.

The steamer George Farwell, from
Jacksonville for New Haven, and the

which some of her sails were split and
others blown away. The vessel rolled

NO FAVoRITEs IN MANILA.
American Teachers Refused Commits
sary Privileges.

BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Washington, y. c., Sept. 6-Theie
was considerable comment at the War
department today on the report Cabled
from Manila that American teachers
had protested against commissary
charges on the government transports
and were denied the privilege of pur-
chasing commssary stores at govern
mcnt warehouses in the Philippines. It
was said at the department that the
teachers had no understanding with
the government to the effect that they
should have commissary privileges on
the transports.
The letters and circulars issued by
the department to applicants for these
positions contain no direct statement
upon the subject of commissary privi-
legos, but the promise that they would
have these privileges might have been
assumed from some statements con-
tanned in manual of information
relative to the Philippine civil service"
This pamphlet contains the following
regarding the purchase of commits
saries:
MANY of the Americans secure
rooms with private families and board
in messes, the provisions being pur-
chased from the cOmmiSsary. It Is also
proposed to establish stores similar TO
the army CommisSary stores for the
benefit Of civilian employees, and thus
probably will be able to purchase from
these stores at about 10 per cent. above
the cost to the government"
Several months ago Secretary Root
issued an order requiring all civilians
to pay S1.25 a day commissary, charges
on government transports and also re-
voking the privilege formerly granted
to civilian employees of buying goods
at the government stores in the Phil
ippines. These orders were widely pub
lished, and it was supposed that the
teachers We're aware of the regulations.
1t is said that the government was
obliged to stop the sale of stores from
government warehouses in Manila
owing to certain alleged frauds and to
the complaints of Manila merchants
that they were being deprived OF a
large amount of business which legiti-
mately belonged to them. The teach
ers In Manila are well paid, and it is
declared that the prices of living there
are not unreasonable.

MRS. M'kINLEY
is INFORMED
The News Broken by Director GEN
eral w. I. Buchanan.

By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Buffalo, Sept 6.-lmmedately after
the president was cared for at the ex-
position grounds, Director General w,
!. Buchanan started for the Milburn
residence TO forestall any information
that might reach there by telephone or
otherwise. Very luckily he was first
to arrive with the information. The
Niagara Falls trip had tired Mrs. Nc
Kinley and on returning to the Mil
burn residence she took leave of her
nieces, the Misses Barber, and the
presidents niece, Miss Duncan, as we'll
as their hostess, Mrs. Milburn, and
went to her room to rest.
Mr.. Buchanan broke the news as
gently as possible to the nieces, and
consulted with them and Mrs. Milburn
as to the best course to pursue in
breaking the news to Mrs. Mckinley,
1t was finally decided that on her
awakening, or shortly thereafter, Mr.,
Buchanan should break the news 10
her, II in the meantime her physician,
Dr. Rixey. had not arrived.
Mrs. Mckinley awoke from her sleep
at about $50 o'clock. She was feeling
splendidly, she said, and at once took
up her crocheting, which, as is well
known, Is one Of her favorite diver
sions.
Immediately on Mr.. Buchanan's ar
rival a. tina Miiburn home he had tele-
