CIVIL REIGN
IN PHILIPPINES
AS SOON AS CONGRESS PASSES
NEEDED LAWS.
TAFT TO BE CIVIL GOVERNOR
CHAFFEE TO SUCCEED MAC AR
THUR-NATIVES TO BE
GIVEN PLACES.

New York. Feb 25.-A special from
Washington says:
Secretary Root has practically COM
government in the Philippines as soon
as the necessary legislation is enacted by
congress. The secretary has been in
communication with Judge Taft and his
associates on the subject. One of the
schemes suggested was to divide the
archipelago into departments, over each
of which member of the Philippine
commission should preside, all to report
to Chairman Taft, who would occupy
the office of governor general. The plan
that will probably be adopted is to keep
the commission intact, but to max,
former Judge Taft the governor general
and his associates members of his cab
met and head of the supreme court. 1t
is possible that influential natives may
lie admitted to membership in the cab
met. Major General Macarthur will be
relieved in the spring by Major General
Chaffee.~ The latter's functions will be
purely military His troops will be at
the disposal of former Judge Taft for
the suppression of disorders, just as the
troops of a state are available for the
maintenance of the peace at the call of
the governor. 1t is stated that as nearly
as possible the new government will be
much like that which the territory OF
Arizona has today. Military officers will
be relieved of civil duty of whatever
character and Americans and natives
will be employed to attend to all civil
| matters.

FINEST COAL STA
ton IN THE WORLD
UNITED NAVAL STATION AT PAGO
PAGO HARBOR, SA-
MOAN ISLANDS.

San Francisco. Feb. 25.--Robert Tib-
bets the contractor who for the last
seven months has been building the
United States government coaling station
and pier in the harbor of Pago Pago in
the Samoan islands. has arrived here
He says the pier and other structures
costing 100000 will be turned over to
the government in about three months
TIL pier is 1856 feet long and so feet wide.
1t is made entirely of steel. All the piles
are of steel. They measure nine inches
in diameter and vary in length from 30
to 20 feet. On the shore just back of the
projecting pier, is large steel building
$50 feet long by 100 feet wide. This is to
be a repository for 10000 tons of coal.
Another similar building is to be erected.
Mr Tibbets declares that there is no
doubt that Pago Pago is the finest coal
ing station in the world.

CARNEGlE'S RAILROAD DREAM.
Great New Trunk Line to Build Into
Pittsburg.

Pittsburg. Pa. Feb 25.-The Despatch
says today:
The oft repeated threat of Andrew
Carnegie to build trunk line into Pitts
burg and the long promised entry of the
Wabash railroad into this great tonnage
center, are at last assured facts. The
Carnegie Steel company has entered
into an agreement with George J. Gould,
principal owner of the Wabash, Joseph
Ramsay, vice president and general
manager: Col. Byron 4. Herrck, chair
nan of the Wheeling & Lake Erie and
dozen Pittsburg capitalists to furnish
them with a heavy tonnage to the west
and southwest if they will build ana
lease lines that will connect Pittsburg
with Toledo, the present terminus of
the Wabash. The new railroad must
be started within six months and the
contract will continue for twenty years.
The road will cost SIS, 900, 900.
Other heavy tonnage contracts in the
Pittsburg district are guaranteed This
agreement assures a new railroad outlet
for Pittsburg to the west. despite the
fact that ]. Pierpont Morgan and the
vanderbilt lt-Cassatt-Cowen railroad COM
bination has the Carnegie interests tied
UP under an option to sell. The con-
tract was signed three weeks ago and
at a time when the Morgan interests
were clamoring for the option on M.
Carnegie's holdings.

GREAT SILK MILL
STRIKE IS COMING
IF WAGES ARE NOT INCREASED
MAY TIE UP ALL THE SILK
BUSINESS.

New York, Feb. 25.-1cvery silk manu-
facturer in Paterson will be visited today
by committee from his shop asking
that wages he increased. On the answer
will depend whether the weavers will
continue at work or go on strike. At
a large meeting of the weavers in Pater-
son on Saturday night, it was decided
that the time had come when the weav
ers should demand more and that the
manufacturers were able to pay more
than current prices. The general condi-
ton of the silk trade has led the weavers
to this action. The answer will be made
known to the weavers in the mills. Then
general and subcommittee will be ap-
pointed and mass meeting will be held
next Friday to determine what shall be
done. The weavers have sent a figure
and they declare that they will not COM
promise or come one cent below it. The
basis of the proposed new wage will be
the schedule of 1892. Improvement in
machienry enables the weavers to do the
work SO much faster that it will practi-
cally make as much money as formerly
though the rate is lower.

KEEP UP HIS COURAGE.
Runaway Boer Believes Beers Have
Captured Two Armies.

New York. Feb. 25.--S. Pearson,
formerly a commissary in the Boer
army, who sailed for Rotterdam on the
Iioland-American liner Statendam. on
Jan. 19, returned to New York on the
steamship Rotterdam. Most of his lini
tied stay abroad was spent in Brussels
and at The Hague. Speaking of his trip.
Mr.. Pearson said last night:
II did not see President Kruger. The
Old gentleman is in bad health and just
had his eyes operated upon and I did
not seek an audience with him. He is
no longer president of the South African
republic, that office haying devolvel
upon vice-rresident Schalkenburg.'
Concerning the state of affairs in the
1ransvaal Mr.. Pearson talked at
length. saying, among other things:
1T is absolutely impossible to get the
true conditions, owing to the fact that
all telegraphic lines are controlled by
the British. I would not be surprised to
hear that both French and Smith-Dorien
with their forces had been captured. The
capture of DeWet will not end the war.
There are other able generals in the
Boer army. and capable successor to
peWet would soon be found"

b0ER GENERALS :
BADLY MAULEO
THEIR GREAT INVASION WAS A
DISMAL FAILURE.
BOTHA READY TO SURRENDER
NO TERMS IN ADVANCE-PEAR
SON BELIEVE BoERS CAP
TURED TWO ARMIES.

New York. Feb. PA dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
Dispatches which We're issued by the
war office last night must put an end to
this rumors that DeWet and Botha have
already surrendered. They, however,
show that both Boer commanders have
been badly mauled and that the inva-
sion of Cape Colony has been a decided
failure. What may be the outcome of
Cen kitchener's plan of campaign, it
is difficult to foretell. Yesterday a pa
PER startled it's readers by the an
nouncement on alleged good authority
that Kitchener had indicated that BOtha
had asked for a meeting with a view of
arranging a general surrender and that
summons We're issued for cabinet
meeting to consider the matter. NJ
special meeting of the cabinet has as a
matter of fact, been held, and Mr..
Chamberlains terms are unconditional
surrender, so military men do not think
the policy of the government is to be-
changed in the way of granting elev
enth hour terms.

OLIVER DoTsoN.
4 CLOSE LOOKOUT FOR HIM
DOTSON'S CONFESSION OF AN OLD
MURDER MAY BE GENUINE
SON KNEW THE STORY.
Special to the Inter Mountain.


Anaconda, Feb 25.-Sheriff Conley re-
turned home Saturday night after spend
ing several days in assisting Sheriff Nc
Mahon of Powell county to run down
James Macarthur, alias James Fleming,
who is wanted for the murder of Oliver
Dotson in Washington Gulch. Sheriff
Conley says the officers are following ev-
cry possible clue and he firmly believes
that sooner or later Macarthur will he
apprehended.
The sheriff says Macarthur is a pretty
smooth individual and desperate char
acier: one that no officer wants to take
any chances with. but he believes the
man will be caught. Sheriff McMahon.
OF Powell county, has sent out circulars
offering a reward of 5000 for his capture
and describes MIN as follows: Age 81:
height feet inches, weights 155
pounds: born in Milwaukee, Wis: no
trade: red hair: dark blue eyes; sandy
complexion; coarse features; low fore
head: large fiat nose: large mouth: de-
cayed teeth; back upper teeth gone;
short square chin; hoNow cheeks: small
ears; large head; small scar on right side
neaf top Of head; lorg neck; square
shoulders and red beard: wears number
Z shoes. When last seen Wore grey suit
of clothes and cap"
Macarthur was pardoned out of the
pententiary in December last and since
then, Sheriff Conley has obtained posi-
tive information that the plot to kill old
man DOtson was planned in the pen be-
fore Macarthur left between Clinton Dot
! son, Elias Persinger and c. o. Benson.
Macarthur was told by Clinton Dotson.
under 80 years sentence, for the Guilt
name murder that his father had a large
sum of money concealed in his house.
which was the inducement he was to
have for doing ti1e killing and leaving
the fraudulent confession which was IL,
tended 20 make out the innocence OF
! those in confinement.
| Sheriff Conley said this morning that
he believed the part of the alleged con-
fession which says "In the year 1896 in
October think it was, I killed a man In
Gallatin county, near Central Park and
hid the body in the bushes about 100
yards west of the bridge" is a giveaway.
He has learned that that was the year
Clinton D6tson came to Montana. He
drove all the way from South Dakota
and had come out to join his father
Sheriff Conley believes young Dotson
! knew al about this murder: that he was
the ohe who prepetrated it. He also rob
bed some sluice boxes in that vicinity
where some placer mining was going on
at that time.
Deputy Sheriff Robinson was in Helena
/ todi.y following up a clue TO McArthur's
! whereabouts, but he telephoned during
the day that thus far his search had been
fruitless.

AlIFE OF WRECKS
ENDS IN DEATH
CANADIAN SAILORS WONDERFUL
RECORD OF HAIRBREADTH
ESCAPES AT SEA. r. "a

Montreal, Feb 25.-Harry A. Scott,
chief steward of the steamer Rio de
Janeiro, who was among the lost in the
wreck, was the son of a farmer at Bran
don, Manitoba. His parents had often
predicted such fate for him but he
always laughed them off and pointed to
his record of hair-breadth escapes. When
10 years old, in June, 1890. he shipped III
the stewards department Of the
less than year the Islander was on the
rocks off Plumpers Pass. Scott soon
found a place as Waterman on the
steamship Queen of the Pacific Coast
Steamship company. For nearly two
years the ship had ordinary sea luck.
Then one foggy night the Queen founder
ed on the rocks off Sitka, Alaska. Bed
room steward of the Oceanic was Scott's
next billet She was caught in a cyclone
between Sydney and Auckland and had
been given up for lost when she limped
into port wreck. Another time when
Sarah Bernhardt were aboard. there was
a mutiny on the Mariposa in which the
crew had a hard fight. IN which Scott
had hand. His next berth was on the
City of New York, plying between San
Francisco and Panama. On the 18th
trip the vessel went ashore on the rocks
of the Golden Gate. Many lives We're
lost. Scott helped save the passengers.
The company recognized his heroism by
appointing him chief steward of the Rio
de Jaineiro. On his first voyage on the
ship the machinery was disabled and she
had to refit at Hong Kong. She ran into
a typhoon in the second trip and was
blown 900 miles off her course

HAS ALUMINIUM DECK.
Shamrock Will Be Made as Light as
Possible.

Glasgow, Feb. 24.-The Associated
ress learns that aluminium will be used
for the deck of the Shamrock II. with
view of saving top weight. Though
the deck was placed some time ago the
first plates have just been delivered at
Eumbarton. On top of the aluminium
plates the whole deck will be covered
with thin sheeting, this serving the
double purpose of protecting the metal
from the corroding effects of salt water
and give the crew better foothold. De-
signer Watson decided that this COM
posite deck would be both much lighter
and stronger than one of wood, and ne
considers every pound of top weight
saved valuable.
