Manila, Sept. 9.-General Chaffee
has ordered General Simmer, COM
manding the department Of Mindanao.
to lead a column against the Macin
Moros. In his order General Chaffee
suggests that eight companies OF in
fantry, two troops of cavalry and one
battery shall form at Camp Wears,
Island of Mindanao. 1t is expected
that the column will move within a
week. Most Of the attacks upon the
American forces have originated in the
Macin country. This movement is to
be directed against hostiles, several Of
whom are enumerated in General Chat
fees order. General Sumner is di-
rected to require the hostiles to give
satisfactory pledge to refrain from
aggression in the future. There are
several Moro strongholds in the Macin
country. It is not definitely known
where the first opposition will be en-
countered. This will depend upon
General Summers course after moving.
General Sumner is directed to protect
the friendly natives.

Y LARGEST ON RECORD.
Amount Of Gold Now in the United
States Treasury. ~

e.
Washington, Sept. 9.-The sum OF
gold now in the United States treasury
exceeds that of any previous time in
the history of the country and with
one possible exception it exceeds that
of any country at any time in the his
tory Of the world. The single reported
exception is that of Russia, about eight
years ago, when that country was pre-
pairing to resume gold payments. At
that time Russia is said to have had
in it's treasury S59s,OOO,O0O in gold.
Last Saturday the vaults of the Unit
ed States treasury contained $685..
936, ,194, an increase since July 1,
1901, of $79,087,897. This stock Of
gold is now being admitted at the rate
of from 100000 to 100000 day with
no immediate prospect of cessation
in the deposits. This condition OF
things is, eminently satisfactory to the
treasury officials, who regard it is the
best possible evidence of prosperity
and of confidence in the financial sta.
bility of this country. E
The gold now coming in is being re-
placed by gold certificates, United
States notes and silver certificates.

BODY POSITIVELY IDENTIFIED.

SEA Near Riceville, la,

Riceville, Ia., Sept. 9.-The body of
William Bartholin, author of one Of the
most heinous double murders in the
criminals annals of the West, lies bur-
led in pauper's grave here.
ALI doubt as to the identity of the
man for whom the police Of the coun-
try have been searching for the last
month was set at rest during the after
noon when the body was exhumed and
positively identified by those who
knew him in life.
The Identification was made by Will
lam J. Mitchell, brother Of one OF
Bartholin's victims Lieutenant An
drew Rohan Of the Chicago detective
force, and Dr. A. j. Coey, also of Chi
cago, who has been closely identified
with the case ever since the bodies
Of Mrs. Bartholin and Miss. Mitchell
were discovered early last month.
Bartholin's body was found Friday
afternoon lying in fax field about six
miles from Riceville.
32-caliber revolver lay beside the
body, one bullet from which had been
fired through the roof of the murder
er's mouth, coming out at the back of
his head. % ...5.

position it was believed the man had
been dead for several days..
Coroner j. S. Carpenter, who lives at
Lime Springs, was notified and the
remains were removed to an undertak-
ing establishment in Riceville.

TELEaRAPHIC MARKET LETTER

Minneapolis. Sept. 9.-The cash de-
mand holds up surprisingly, the sea-
board alone reporting upwards of half
a million bushels taken by exporters
Chicago was favored with SOB cars. ex-
ceeding the estimate by 1O3 cars. but
the deliverable quality were only three
cars. Duluth reported 1863 against
1000 last year while we received PIG
cars against 439 a year ago. Quite
general rains were reported in south
ern Illinois and the Ohio valley, but
the west and northwest is promised
clear weather tonight but cloudy to-
morrow. Temperatures are working
lower, making frosts most probable in
this locality.
Corn was but temporarily affected by
the generous receipts of 2S9 cars of
which 4S were of the contract kind.
F1'osts were reported in Iowa and Ne
braska with every indication of re-
petition tonight of heavier character
The cash demand is perhaps more urg-
ent today than at any period during
the last sixty days. There is nothing
in sight, or in our judgment, can pos
sibly happen to prevent shorts from
being forced in corner the balance of
this month. Supplies have been fur
ther reduced and it is absolutely out of
the question to bring but little more to
market before this crop is harvested.
Oats: On receipts of 476 cars with
six grading contract opened the weak
est in the September, while the deferred
options were firm and took strong
position throughout the session, We
consider these oats a most excellent
purchase under existing circumstances
and allowing for setbacks due to profit
taking believe the market is in excel
lent shape for a sharp advance.
Provisions are undoubtedly proving
a disapp ointment to holders who have
been taking little on the scale down.
Receipts OF hogs are admittedly small
but before the class of buying necessary
to put some ginger" in the provision
pit is attracted, prices will have to
sWring q little lower, when purchases
would seem more prudent.

Commander Of the Panther Tells His
Story Of the Affair.
# Berlin, Sept. 9.-The marine minis
try has given out the following official
report of the sinking Of the Firminist
gunboat Crete-a-Pierrot:
Captain Eckerman of the Panther
had receivedaorders to capture the pi-
ratical gunboat Crete-a-Pierrot. The
Panther went from Port au Prince to
Gonaives, where it completely sur.
prised the Crete-a-Pierrot. The Ger
man commandant sent the following
ultimatum:
Strike your colors within fifteen
minutes and disembark from your ship
without undertaking any defensive
measures whatever, otherwise an i'm
mediate attack will follow
The Panther had already cleared
for action. The Crete-a-Pierrot hauled
down her flag within the, allotted time
and the crew disembarked. The Pan.
ther then intended to take the Crete-a-
Pierrot in tow, but an explosion, of her
after powder magazine soon occurred,
which was evidently affected by the
Crete-a-P Pierrot,s crew. The explosion
destroyed here stern and set the vessel
on fire, rendering taking her impossi.
BILE, especially as further explosions
followed. AS this was regarded as a
hostile act and as the guns afore were
still in condition, the Panther's cap
tain caused the forward magazine to
be exploded through cannonade.
After this was exploded the Crete-a-
P1errot broke up and sank.
G Gonaives is In the hands Of the
rebels"

Washington, Sept. 9.-The war de-
partmenI mas received a cable dispatch
from General Chaffee, dated Manila,
Sept. 6, stating that an attack was
made on the United States troops

First Lieutenant William M. Parker
and two soldiers were wounded and
one soldier killed. General Chaffee
also says: t,.

Samuel S. Sumner to move troops into
Macin country and exact promise of
good behavior in future from datos and
followers. Troops have been attacked
twelve times since May 2, with loss to
us of four killed and twelve wounded
We have remained all the time quiet,
seeking friendship; in action self-de-
fense only"
The last part of General Chaffee's
dispatch evidently is intended to in
form the war department that the
army has been acting wholly upon the
defensive in the Moro country. His
instructions have been to do nothing
which would provoke conflict with
the Moros and the position of the war
department is that if there is a con-
f1ict it must be justified by the aggres-
sions of the Moros. Some time ago
General Chaffee asked for authority
to attack the Moros Immediately, but
he was advised the department wished
to avoid hostilities if possible. At the
same time it has long been the belief
Of officials of the department that an

upon Killick to surrender; that he had
refused and that the Panther had sunk
the Crete-a-Pierrot and all the crew

dispatch corrected the statement as to
the crew, saying that they had escaped.

our business. The Berlin advices to
