BURTON WITHDRAWS
OBJECTION TO EVANS
Kansas Senator VIII Not OPP
pose His Confirmation.
Intimated at White House That Nomi.
nation of Eugene F. Ware Would
Be Held Back Causes Change.

Senator Burton of Kansas intimated tc
the President yesterday that he would
oppose the confirmation of Mr.. H. Clay
Evans, of Tennessee, who was nominated
to be Consul General at London, on the
ground that he is an unfit man to occupy
an important Federal office. The Presi-
dent thereupon decided not to send to the
Senate the name Of Mr. Eugene F. Ware
to be Commissioner of Pensions in place
OF Mr.. Evans until the latter's nomina-
tion is confirmed.
After looking the ground over, how
ever. Senator Burton, it is said. has come
to the conclusion that he will not embar-
rass the President and stir up row
among his Republican colleagues by trying
to defeat Mr.. Evans nomination, espe-
cially in view of the fact that under all
the circumstances the fight would doubt
less be losing one. Mr.. Evans nomina-
tion. 1t Is expected, will be favorably act
ed upon within few days. and then Mr.
Ware will be appointed and assume the
duties of Commissioner of Pensions.
The Kansas Senators agreed in advance
to Mr.. Wares appointment. although they
were surprised when the President se-
lected him. in spite of the fact that they
had a candidate OF their own.
They were equally surprised when the
President announced that Mr. Evans would
be promoted to a better place in the dip
lomatic service. and that the Pension
ONCE should be conducted by the new
Commissioner on the Evans plan. They
say that the Grand Army OF the Republic
was not at all pleased by this turn of af-
fairs. and would like to see Evans nom
ination rejected by the Senate.

Mr.. SQUIERS SELECTED
AS MINISTER TO CUBA
President Decides to Reward Him for
Services Rendered During
Siege Of Pekin.

The President has definitely fixed upon
Mr.. Herbert G. Squiers. first secretary OF
the United States legation at Pekin, for
appointment as minister to Cuba. Gen.
Edward S. Bragg. Of Fond du Lac, Wis.
has been decided upon for the post of
consul general at Havana. This disposes
Of two Of the most important and remu-
nerative positions in the foreign service.
The consul generalship carries salary OF
$1,000.
The President has long had Mr.. Squiers
under consideration for the position OF
minister. which is given to him somewhat
in the nature of reward for his valuable
services in China with Minister Conger
at the time the legations were besieged.
In Mr.. Squiers the President reposes the
confidence that he will manipulate his Of
fee to the establishment of close friend
ship between this country and the island
government.
General Bragg has been the most favor
ablv considered of all the applicants for
the post of consul general. He is Gold
Democrat. but the President admires him
for certain of his bold characteristics, and
has OF late mentioned to several people
the fact that in 1888. in seconding the
nomination of Grover Cleveland for the
Presidency It was General Bragg who
declared. ave love him for the enemies
he has made"
General Bragg has been in the foreign
service before. having served as minister
to Mexico. He entered the Union Army
as lieutenant in 1861, and by his gall
lantry won promotion to the rank of brig
adler general before the cessation of hos

LIVE STOCK DEALERS
ASK VETO OF OLEO BILL
Judge w. M. Springer Appeals
to President for Them.
Also Urge Passage of Anti-Shoddy Bill
and Quick Settlement Of
Beef Trust Case.

The National Live Stock Association,
representing the bulk of the cattle grow
ers in the West. has. through its Wash
ington representative, Judge William NJ.
Springer. appealed to the President to
veto the olcomargarine bill because 1t
states its approval would destroy profit
aule market for stock materials now used
in the manufacture of oleomargarine.
1t also desires that he urge the pass
age of the Grosvenor anti -shoddy bill now
sleeping in committee. This bill stipulates
the labelling of all wooden products SO as
TO show the amount of adulterant or nom
wooden material used in their manu-
facture. II is a measure of extreme benefit
to sheep raisers.
The third thing asked of the President
is that he hurry the investigation of the
beef trust so as to secure a speedy de-
cislon. The live stock people are wary of
expressing themselves as to whether they
favor the Administrations attitude in the
beef trust proceedings. They merely state
that they want decision reached one way
or the other. because the uncertainty
existing hurts their business.
Called on President.
Judge Springer called On the President
yesterday and showed him the following
telegram from the Live Stock Associa-
tion:
Judge W. NJ. Springer: Call On Presi-
dent Immediately and represent that pas
sage of the oieomargarine bill. failure to
consider the Grosvenor anti-shoddy bill
ard Governments action against beef
packers are already producing heavy
losses - cattle interests throughout the
United States. Urge speedy action on
these questions. National Live Stock AS
sociaticn. John W. Springer. President"
Indications are, however. that the
"oleo'' bill will be approved in due
course.
The President promised to consider the
other requests OF the live stock people
He Is apparently just as anxious as they
are that the questions involved shall be
settled promptly.

wanted it's share of trade.

would have to sell for financial
reasons.

War DEPARTMENT SAYS
FILIPINOS STARTED WAR
Copy of Aguinaldo's Tee
graphic Orders 10 Generals.
Rewards for Those Who Proved Them
selves Heroes in the Cap
ture of Manila.

The War Department has had repro
duced the original telegram sent by Agui-
naldo to General Noyiel and Colonel
Cailles. January IA. 1899, just before the
insurrectionary outbreak. which shows the
intention Of the Filipinos to attack the
Americans. The attack took place Feb
ruary 4. about two weeks after Aguinaldo
had told Noviel and cailles what would
be the reward of those participating in
the movement.
This dispatch, the officials of the War
Department say. adds 10 the evidence al
ready gathered showing that the outbreak
had been planned by AguinaIdo. and was
not the result of restlessness among the
Americans, as had been charged.

Americans Occupied Manila.
The Americans were in possession of
Manila. and their outpests touched at
several points the advance of the Fill
pinos. Peace was apparent between the
armies, though the desire of the Filipinos
to enter Manila and obtain a share OF the
credit for the victory the Spaniards was
plainly manifest. The Filipinos were be-
ing held In check by the Americans.
Agiinaldo was then known as president
of the republican government at Malobo-
sand, was so addressed by Noylel, who
telegraphed, saying:
we desire to know result Of ultimatum
which You mentioned in your telegram.
and we also desire to know what reward
our government is preparing for the forces

Already Aguinallo had negotiated with
the Americans to be permitted TO enter
Manila and had been refused. The ulti-
matum mentioned referred to that subject
