ALEDO AWAITS
POISON PROOFS
Authorities Take No Action in Miss
DOors Mysterious
Death.

There have been no developments
in the alleged poisoning case of Miss
Mary Dool, of Aledo. No further
steps will be taken by the authori-
ties until after they receive the full
report from Rush Medical college
regarding the analysis of the stom-
ach. 1t is reported that Miss Dunlap
has employed Connell & Thomson,
Aledo attorneys, for her defense in
case of arrest.
DIR. j. A. Patton, of Rush Medical
college, into whose hands the Aledo
authorities placed the stomach of
the dead girl and samples of the
candy that is supposed to have caus-
ed death, said last night that it
would take another day to complete
the analysis. y qualitative analysis
of the candy showed traces of strych-
nine and a quantiative analysis will
show whether the drug was present
in sufficient quantities to cause death.
The analysis of the stomach will be
completed today, but until the chem
ical test is complete DR.. Patton re-
fuses to state what the results will
probably show.

ton.
a large number of witnesses was
examined and the testimony was con-
flictin2. The attorneys for the defense
said 1t was a travesty on Justice TO
arrest the officers and Jail them for
doing their duty. Frederick Warnke,
the owner OF the washery where the
riot occurred, says the acquittal of
the deputies Will Justify him In start
ing up the washery again, and he has
served notice on Sheriff Jacobs that If
he does not provide ample protection
for his workmen and property on
Wednesday he will make an appeal
to the governor for troops.

Manila, Aug. ia force of native

drones in a sharp fight last Saturday
near CaIoocan. about four miles north
of Manila The arrival of reinforce
ments for the constabulary won them
the victory. -Four members of the con-
stabulary were killed and one was
wounded. The Ladrones left three of
their number dead, but carried off
their wounded. The chase of the Ca

NIOrOs Renew Their Attacks.
Manila, Aug. 19.-The Moros in Min
danaO are renewing their attacks up
on the OUtpOStS and pack trains of the
United States at Lake Lanao which
is under the command OF Captain J..
J. Pershing. Of the Fifteenth cavalry.
The United States troops have sue
cessfully repulsed the Moro attacks
and have suffered no losses. The COM
manders of the United States forces
on MindanaO report aggressive action
against the Moros to be necessary,
and ask permission to move against
BacOlOd and other strOngholdS of the
hostile Mohammedans. There are
about 1000 United States soldiers on
MindanaO available for the desired
aggressive movement. 1t is believed
this number is sufficient to defeat the
NIOros, although 1t would possibly, be
necessary to strengthen their base be-
fore undertaking the movement.
Chafiee Wants an Active Campaign
Washington, Aug. ia cable dis
patch has been received from General
Chaffee, stating that in his Judgment
an active campaign against the MOroS
in MindanaO Is necessary in order to
curb the opposition that has been
growing against United States author
ity. The dispatch was considered of
sufficient importance to be repeated
to President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay.
General Chaffee has been directed to
use his own discretion in the matter,
and Will no doubt engage in aa ag-
gressive movement against the insur-
gent Moros. Some time before Secre-
tary Root left Washington the Moro
situation was under consideration, and
from a dispatch then at hand the sec
retary was of the opinion that the
MoroS must be dealt with severely
before they would respect the author
ity of the United States. General Chat
