OF every official sent by this country to

SEARCY,S IDENTITY.

Governor Tyler has received letter
fromTexas that throws some light on the
antecedants of G. J. Sesrcy, the noted
train robber, who, In company with
Morganfeld, held up the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac mail
train, rifsd the express car and escaped
on the engine, and then turned it
loose with a full head of steam on.
Searoy has been good prisoner, but
has persisteDtly declined to make
known his identity. This letter was
from Colonel James Buckner Barry, OF
Walnut Springs, Texas. 10 his letter
he says that the families OF both
Sssrcy's mother and father have been
distinguished in the history OF the
South. He now has an uncle who
holds prominent position in the State
government OF Texas. Searcy's father
only lived few years after his mar
riage, and his mother married Colonel
Barry. Young Charles was received
by his stepfather and given every adj
vantage. As he grew TO manhood he
became the popular idol OF the com.
munity. Young Searcy's adventurous
spirit was constantly getting him into
all kinds OF trouble, and finally he left
home and nothing was heard from
him until the story of the Aqua Greek
train robbery was herslded from one
end of the country to the other. Even
then the mother kept quiet, feeling
keenly as she did the disgrace. Final
ly the longing Of mothers heart has
overcome this, and she yesterday join
ed her husband in making an appeal
for The pardon OF her first born.
Searcy claims that 1t was understood
that II he gave certain evidence at the
trial that he would be recommended
for pardon after serving part OF his
term. His friends, however, have been
unable to establish this contract. The
worst feature in the case was the turn.
ing loose OF the locomotive, when the
Washington express was due to leave

THE ANNUAL report Of Commissioner
of Pensions Evans, when 1t is made
public in day or two, will bring down
upon him a renewed assault on
his administration OF his Office, for
the report will show that he has
not expended during the fiscal
year just ended ell of the $40, O00,O
which Congress appropriated for pen
sions, but that he has, on the contrary,
turned back into the Treasury nearly
Eve millions of dollars. He will be
charged with having deliberately de-
prived hundreds OF veterans or their

by the @. A. R. ss a greater ain than

THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1901.
The Denver Times of Saturday, Aug.

The Denver Times of Saturday, Aug.
II, contains the following editorial
under the head of Joseph Chamber
lain's Ignorance or Perverson."
THE attempt of Joseph Chamberlain
British colonial secretary, to justify the
policy of determination and expatriatior
adopted towards the Beers, by quoting
General Sherman's historic March tc
the Sea- as precedent, shows either in
tense ignorance on his part or 'wilful per
version or belief by him that the bulk
of his auditors were densely ignorant?
General Sherman laid waste Georgia
as his army marched from Atlanta to the
sea, but he never made war on women
and children nor did he refuse succor tc
a suffering enemy. He did not leave
posts all along his pathway to prevent
the Confederate sympathizers from re-
cultivating their devastated fields. And
above all he did not employ savages and
semi-savages to assist him in devastation
His course was thoroughly justified by
the exigencies of war, burt it was not
similar except in temporary effects, tc
the British policy in South Africa.
Equal ignorance was displayed, or will
full perversion was INDUCED in, by Mr.
Chamberlain when he attempted to. jus,
tify the British policy by quoting Gen
MacArthur's proclamation in the Philip
pines. The conditions in those islands
are as dissimlar to those in South Africa
as it is possible to conceive. The natives
there, especially those in rebellion, are
little better than savages and their
methods of warfare are utterly uncivil
lied: the Beers of South Africa are
Christians and as civilized as the aver.
age Englishman. The United States has
been seeking TO quell the rebellion so as
to establish free government there; the
British are endeavoring to subdue the
Beers in order to deprive them of their
liberties The United States has never
m ,ditated devastation or expatriation
Great Britain has proclaimed both as its
policy.
"Sir William Vernon Harcourt dealt
the Conservatives a singing blow when
he declared that the government in arm.
ing the natives, was reverting to prac'
tice that had left the darkest stain or
the history OF the war between England
and America. No one reading ot the
sava yeries encouraged by the British
durin Il e American revolution can help
shudderilg. That these savageries will
be repeated in South Africa by the Zulus
and Mashonis and other savage allies OF
the English is almost certain and the
world will yet be Mortified by stories OF
such atrocities as will go into history be-
side the Wyoming valley massacre. The
less, therefore, Mr.. Chamberlain has to
say in defense or justification of Eng
lands South African policy, the better
it will be for his own future reputation.
