MANILA'S FIRE CHIEF.
appointment of Capt. Dodge, Former
ly of Topeka, Is Made


With Funston made brigadier general,
John W Haussermann of Leavenworth
city attorney of Manila and Captain
Frederick R. Dodge of Topeka, chief of
the fire department of the Philippine
island metropolis, Kansas is much in
evidence both in military and civil de-
partments-
All three of these Kansans We're
members of the famous Twentieth, the
one colonel, the second a lieutenant
and the third sergeant major of the
regiment.
Fire Chief Dodge is less known than
either of the other two. He has never
been in politics and his profession has
been largely that of soldier. His ap-
pointment as head of the Manila fire
department is an honor his friends were
not looking for and they believe he will
fill the position with credit. Chief
Dodge first went to Fort Leavenworth
in 1890 as sergeant Of Company. F. Tenth

Members of the local police force are in

Governor Tyler is having made of the case
of Edward Herzog, the oyster dredger who
came here from the lower Potomac about
three weeks ago in an apparently dying
condition. Governor Tyler has arranged
for officers to go in search of the dredger S
assailants, as stated in yesterdays Star,
and trouble may be experienced by the Of
ficers in making the arrests.
Major Sylvester has sent to Governor Ty-
ler the names and addresses of several wit
nesses and has also given the governor an
idea of what the witnesses will be able to
tell in court. Oystermen who have been
coming he-'e from Machodoe creek and
other places down the river are extremely
anxious that the persons who are charged
with having so brutally treated Herzog
shall be captured, and a number of them
have rendered valuable assistance to the
local police in the investigation of the af-
fair.
According to the information obtained
the cries of Herzog attracted the attention
of oystermen in the vicinity, and they went
to the unfortunate mans assistance. 1t is
also stated that the conduct of the men in
the case caused a storm of indignation
among the other oystermen, and that night
decided to have lynching party visit the
boat before morning. The men on the
boat 1T Is reported, learned of what was in
store for them and about o'clock In the
morning they hoisted their sails and left
