Upton VISITS
KING EDWARD
UnfoIds His Plans for
Another Race for the
Americas Cup.

LONDON, Dec 1s.-Sir Thomas Upton,
in a long interview which he had with
King Edward yesterday, during which the
Americas cup races were minutely dis
cussed, unfolded his plans for the future
His Majesty exhibited the keenest interest
and at times offered suggestions. He ex-
pressed the opinion that it would be hard
to get a boat to beat the Americans, to
which Sir Thomas replied that he was at
least confident that he could secure a
yacht q good deal better than the Sham
rock II. When Sir Thomas had finished
explaining his reasons for this belief the
King appeared to be satisfied and heartily
wished him success,
Sir Thomas Upton also conveyed to
King Edward a recapitulation of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's friendly comments on the
King and on England, which formed the
gist of a conversation between Sir Thomas
the United States. The King was evil
IDENTIFY much pleased. In turn he told
Sir Thomas how greatly he admired Presi-
dent Roosevelt's personality, which, un-
fortunately, he knew only by hearsay.
The King takes great interest in the
preparations for building another chaIo
lenger which are believed to be already
on foot.
Captain Sycamore, in an interview. said
he would shortly hold a consultation with
Sir Thomas Lipton and he had great
hopes that a Shamrock III would result
therefrom.
It is learned that King Edward has
taken particular interest in w G.
Jameson's alleged shortcomings during
the cup races. 1t is noticeable in this
connection that his Majesty has not seen
jameson since the latters return to Eng
land, and it is said by those who are in a
position to know that he is not likely to
do so In the future.

AT his trial De Posoy, who was held to

the participators in the wholesale MUIR

sacred office to keep silence.
General Chaffee pronounced this defense
of no value, saying that the confessional
does not lay upon any man, priest or lay
man the obligation of suppresslng knoWl-
edge of crimes being committed by third
parties, the consummation of which could
have been prevented without violating
the secrecy of the confessional
In this particular case, it is said, the

The Secretary of War to-day notified
General Chaffee, commanding the divi-
sion of the Philippines, that short term
soldiers in his command hereafter will be
held in service until their arrival at San
Francisco, where they will be discharged
as rapidly as their accounts can be made
out. These soldiers will be detained in
camp at Angel Island until their dis
charge papers are issued. This actiaon is
due to the fact that the discharge of the
men on the transports on their way home
leads to confusion and iEterferes with a
proper enforcement OF The regulations re-

m N. W., WASHINGTON, Dec. 19
General Miles has again attract
~ ed unusual attention to his utter
ances by the interview on the
Schley case. The lieutenant general of
the army has in this instance laid him
self liable to reprimand by criticizing an
other branch of the service. He has ac-
cused the Navy Department of being in
conspiracy to rob SchIey of his honors,
and it is perfectly justifable for the Sec
retary Of the Navy to call the attention
of the Secretary of War to this accusa-
ton made by the head of the army. In
fact, army and navy officers fail to see
how Secretary Long can ignore such an
accusation made against his department.
1t is his duty to protect that department
from criticism by another department of
the Government, and he cannot ignore
this coming from Miles. Secretary Root
cannot fail to call the attention of Miles
to his reported interview and ask if it is
correct. If Miles acknowledges the in
terV1eW. there is nothing left for Root
but to reprimand the head of the army
for unjust and censorious criticism of the
Navy Department.
WASHINGTON, Dec 19.-Attorney The
all, acting for Stayton, counsel for Rear
Admiral w. 7. Sampson, called at the

Advocate General Lemly. Iheall stated
that the objections to the findings of Ad-
miral Dewey will not be filed with Sec
retary Long until tomorrow morning. In
brief, the statement will object to Ad-
miral Dewey's findings that Admiral
Schley was in absolute command at the
battle of Santiago July 8, on the ground
that the testimony touching this point
was not admitted during the sessions of
the court of inquiry.
The bill of exceptions filed by counsel
for Admiral Schley with Secretary Long

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-"History af-
fords no parallel of a whole people thus
practically turning war traitors, and in
the genius of no other people was ever
found such masterful powers of secrecy
and dssimulation; but it is needless to
say that no powerful state was ever
erected or ever can be erected on such
immoral and unenlightened foundations
This statement is made by General
Chafee, military governor of the Philip
pines, in a review of one Of a number OF
court-martial cases in the islands, the rec
ords of which have been reviewed at the
War Department.
The case which brought forth this COM
ment from General Chaffee was one
wherein seven natives were tried jointly
on a charge of murder. The accused were
soldiers in the insurgent army, and after
defeat by the American army in the held
abandoned even the show of open opposl-
ton, such as the half-uniformed guerrilla
bands make, and took up their residence
at Taytay, in LuZon, a place protected
by an American garrison. Then, following
the proclaimed policy of the 1nsurgent
chiefs, they proceeded to organize secret
" a bolo band. When authorization had
been given to establish civil government
the band came forward under the leader
ship of a resident padre and were elected
municipal officers of Taytay. Ihen en-
sued a remarkable attempt to serve two
masters In all lawful matters they served
with due appearance of loyalty to the
American Government while at the same
time they labored secretly and diligently
in the interests of the insurrection. This
dual form of government, says General
Chaffee, existed everywhere, in strongly
garrisoned cities like Manila as well as
the smallest barrio. The municipal officers
of Taytay next entered upon series OF
murders, and continued their deadly work
until the growing unmber of mysterious
disappearnces led to the discovery of the
perpetrators by the American authorities.

Chaffee. stands out in this case as in
hundreds of like cases of murder--that the
average native of these islands has not
more than the merest rudimentary con-
ception of his individual rights and duties
as a man, and no one knows this so well
as the willy chiefs, who use him for their
nefariouS purposes.
Six of the seven natives were sentenced
to be hanged, but General Chaffee COM
muted the sentence of three of them to
imprisonment at hard labor for life.
The seventh native, 1eonordo de Posoy,
a regularly ordained priest, asked for and
was granted a separate trial When Tay-
tay was given permanent garrison of
American troops De Posoy was found

Corn Stalk Disease.

This term is applied to disease or
possibly several diseases occasioned as
a result of pasturing cattle in stalk
fields late in the fall or early in the
winter. An outbreak. II one should oc-
cur, usually takes place in from to IA
days after the animals are turned upon
the stalks. The great majority Of these
cases occur between the 5th and Sth
days. 1t is also observed that all ami
mails that do become affected die with
in two or three days of each other.
There is nothing in the appearance OF
the fodder to indicate that 1t may cause
trouble. Cattle may Craze and do well
on one field and from 10 to Is per cent.
be lost on changing to another field
separated from the first by a fence. II
makes no difference whether the cattle
are allowed to Craze for only a few
hours or left in all day. After one out
break has occurred. It is rarely the
case that SECOND will follow. The dis
ease has never been reported from feed
ing cut fodder. even when taken from
the same field as that in which disease
has occurred from grazing. The cause
has never been determined, but 1t is
most often observed after a dry sea-
son.
The general symptoms are that the
animal appears dull. persists in stand
ing in one place, or II he moves II is
with a noticeably jerky gait. There is
marked prostration: the animal will
fall on the knees and II may require
several attempts to arise. Some act as
though they were crazy, but the ma
Jority are stupid. There is more or less
frothing at the mouth and almost con-
slant swinging OF the head from side
to side whether in the standing posi-
ton or lying down. The movements are
indicative OF pain. The course is Of very
short duration. from two to 30 hours,
the majority living less than six hours.
Too often the history is that the cattle
were all right in the evening and from
one 10 eight found dead In the morn
ing. As the cause IL not known. and a
successful treatment has not been dis
covered, the prevention or means OF re-
