CRIMES ARE CHARGED
Anti-Imperialists Arraign Army In
the Philippines.
An Open Letter TO the President-War
Department Accused OF Coverdng
Up FactS-The Army Democrat
ised-InQulry Urged.

Lake George, n. Y, July 2S.-Edwin
Burritt Smith, of Chicago, Carl Schurz,
Moorfield Story, Herbert Welsh, and
Charles Francis Adams. constituting a
committee appointed by the antrim
perialists at their meeting in New
York last spring to investigate condi-
tions in the Philippines, Sunday re-
turned their verdict, finding the off,
GERS and privates of the United States
army in the Philippines guilty OF the
following crimes:
Kidnapping and murder under circum-
stances of aggravated brutality.
Robbery.
Torture, both of men and women,
and rape.
The infection of the death penalty
on evidence elected by torture.
The anti-imperialists issued this
opinion in direct reply to President
Roosevelt's recent review of the case
of Gen. Jacob II. Smith, and it took the
form of an open letter addressed to the
president.
Utter SemoraIisat ion of Army.
The committee declares that the
commanders in the Philippines by
their examples have melted their SUI
bordinates to the torture of natives,
and that this has resulted in the ut
ter decentralization of the army and
the destruction of all sense of moral
ity. 1t claims that in one district
after general used the phrase, xiii
or burn" 100000 natives out of to-
tai of 100000 persisted, and that in
Samar fire and sword held full sway.
The committee claims it has proof
of the cold-blooded murder of Cath
Ollie priest by n commissioned officer,
and declares that the custom of muir
dering wounded Filipinos is general
throughout the island. II speaks OF
one general as recently promoted
for killing those whose bread and
salt he, starving, had begged for and
eaten"
Court-MartinIs Are Farces.
Turning from its charges as to
treatment of natives, the committee
declares openly that the court-mar-
tails of Smith and others charged
with cruelty were farces, the testi-
mony given mockery, meant to be
humorous, that every effort is made
by the war department to conceal
real conditions in the islands. It de-
clares the idea that "the honor of
the army" is at stake has made the
trials farce, claiming the honor OF
the United States is more at stake
than that of the army, and compar-
ing the case with that of Dreyfus in
France.
Claims Facts Are Concealed.
The committee states that it's eff
forts to investigate have been him
dered and blocked by "the paper de-
partment of the army" While claim
ing that the department refused in
formation regarding the concentra-
ton camps, the committee admits re-
ceiving the reports of the medical ex-
aminers in the camps, but declares
these to be IAN insult to the intelli-
gence of those to whom they are
addressed"
Asks for investigation.
In setting forth all it's allegations
regarding the conduct of the army
the committee calls upon the presi.
dent to make thorough investiga'
ton.

A JEALOUS LOVER.
Charles Weyley Kills HIS Former
Sweetheart and Himself 1t
Springfield, MO.

Springfield, Mo-, July 2s.-Charles
Woyley, aged 25, of Norwood, Mo-, shot
and killed Miss Josephine Sheridan, his
former sweetheart, at her home here,
and then shot and killed himself. Miss
Sheridan and her sister were enter
tanning friends in the back yard when
Weyley rang the door bell. Miss Sheri-
dan went through the house to the
front door, and almost Immediately
four shots were heard. When MEM
bers of the family reached the spot a
minute later both the girl and Weyley
were dead, stretched side by side on
the porch. Miss Sheridan had been
shot through the heart, while the top
of Weyiey's head had been torn off.
Jealousy probably prompted Weyley
TO shoot Miss Sheridan and then him
self. They had known each other for
four years, and up to a month ago had
been engaged to be married.

writes in this connection:
Farmers will receive a fair price Tor

The prices will be higher this winter than
they were last because It will be impos-
sihle for Eastern dealers Ia ship beef into

Although the prices viii not he as t,Ch
