Good Bye.

Mir. John Moore, "Col.," as he is af- fectionateIy called by most every one, having resigned the position of fore man of the Ready Bullion mine, which position he has filled long and accepta- bly, was surprised on the eve of bis de- parture for South Africa by being pre- sented with a fine diamond set gold watch, beautiful nugget chain, a ruby and diamond scarf pin and gold ring all from the "boys" of the Ready Bullion.
 The Col. was completely overcome, and has asked his friend, the editor of the News, to express his gratitude, etc, which we know is entirely unnecessary. He told us confdentially that he had intended to stop in London and call on King Edward, but now he would pass him by.
 Whole.souled, kind hearted Col. John Moore,-when will we ever find man to take his place. With always joke and a laugh, or word of help, he leaves Douglas Island with regret, for all the people are his friends.
 He won't like our saying these things, but who knows what may happen, and we want him to go from the Island feel ing assured that there will always be a vacant chair, and little niche in the tablets of memory, reserved for Col. John Moore.

The receipts of the public school picnic at Sheep creek were S11.85. The expenses for the ooat and for printing tickets was S11.00. One 9 cent ticket was returned. Little Alexandria Uren was given two tickets to return, but she preferred to donate the amount to the public school library. A book has been purchased with the money and placed in the library. A little note is written on the first page, telling who gave the book and under what circumstances.
 Our contemporaries of the Juneau daily field,who cheerfully swipe the con- tents of the News each week and pub fish it as the latest thing out, fell down fearfully last week when they stole the information that Marshal Shonp would deliver the oration here on the Fourth.

WALTERS CASE WITH COURT,
Was Severely Arraigned by Judge
Advocate Who Charges Him with
Abandoning Helpless Comrades.

Manila, April 12.-Maj Henry P.
Kingsbury, the judge advocate replied
to-day to the summing up before the
court-martial yesterday of Capt. Ar
thur I. Mark, representing Maj. Lit
Teton w. T. Waller, who is being tried
for executing natives of Samar with
out trial. Maj. Kingsbury made an
eloquent address.
He contended that Maj Waller was
under military, and not martial, law
and that there was nothing in the con-
duct of the men who were shot deserv-
ing such punishment The judge advo-
cate blamed Maj. Waller himself for
the disasters which befen the marines,
and accused him of abandoning ten
helpless comrades, whose bones were
now bleaching on the banks of the
Lanang," to die of hunger.
The judge advocates denunciation
of the methods by which the prisoners
who were to be shot were chosen, was
dramatic.
They were lined up, he said, for the
rattle of death, at the sole will and
pleasure of Private Davis, a marine
who was judge and prosecutor, and
processes many arms
He referred to Davis testimony in
terms of whitening scorn. accused Maj
Waller of listening to the dictates of
ambition and not to the dictates of
duty, asserted that the natives, ac-
cording to the evidence, acted in many
instances in a highly commendable
manner, and declared that their faith
fitness and not their treachery had
been disclosed before the court.
Capt. Mark requested permission to
make short reply. He protested
strongly against criticism of the way
in which Maj. Waller had conducted
the campaign, which he said was out
side the case, and again insisted that
martial law ruled by the mere nature
of the conditions.
The court deliberated less than half
an hour, No decision was announced.

ALL THE PAPERS CALLED FOR
Mai. Gardeners Charges as to Con-
ditiOns i'm Islands to Be Thorough
" Investignted.

Washington, April 1.-THE Senate
Committee on the Philippines began its
proceedings to-day by adopting a res
olution offered by Senator Carmack
calling upon the Secretary of War for
all the orders, circulars and official re-
ports received from commanders and
their subordinates in the provinces of
Tayabas, Bantangas, samar and La
guna. Gen. Macarthur was again to-
day the only witness before the COM
mittee.
Senator Culberson called attention to
the fact that there is testimony on file
to the effect that Gen. Anderson had
written to Aguinaldo inviting his CO.
operation at Manila. He then asked If
the inference was not authorized that
friendly cooperation was desired by
the American commanders.
Gen. Macarthur said there were
other facts which show the co-opera-
ton in the attack on Manila was not
a voluntary one on our part.
Gen. Macarthur then related that on
the evening previous to the attack up
on Manila, after Gen. Merritt had is
sued his order of battle he (MacArthur)
was in consultation with Gen. Ander-
son when the latter received a COM
munication from Gen. Merritt directing
the latter to inform Aguinaldo that the
battle which was to take place the
next day was to be between the Ameri-
cans and Spaniards and that he must
not participate under any cireum-
stances.
Senator Patterson then asked a Sc
ries of questions Intended to bring out
the fact that there had been an I'M
Outstanding between the American
commander, Gen. Merritt, and Admiral
Dewey and the Spanish commanders
that the attack on Manila should be
a sham battle. Gen. Macarthur said
that if there had been such an under
standing he knew nothing of it.
Merritt's Double Dealing.
Senator Culberson reiterated the
statements concerning Gen. Merritt S
first dealing with the Fillipinos and
asked if that was not change of pol
icy on Merritt's part after he had reap
ed the benefit of cooperation with the
native troops.
This question practically brought to
a close Gen. MacArthur's statement for
the day, the remainder of the time be-
ing given up to a discussion among
the members of the committee as to
it's propriety. Before this controversy
arose, however the witness indicated
that he preferred not to make direct
reply.
The discussion was extended, Repub-
lican members generally contending
that the question called for a mere
opinion and was not in order, and the
Democrats holding that it asked for a
statement of fact and was legitimate.
Senator Lodge, as chairman of the
committee, held that the witness could
not be compelled to answer it. The
ruling was freely commented upon by
the Democratic members as calculated
to rob the inquiry of much of its use
fitness. and they appealed from the
ruling of the chair. No vote was
taken.

MILLER SENTENCED FOR LIFE.
No Time Lost in Trial of Detroit
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Inadequate to
the Crime, said Court


Detroit, Mich, April 12.-At midnight
tonight, seventy-two hours after
Prof. Joseph M Miller murdered Miss
Carrie M. Jennett with Ratchet, he
was in jackson prison, sentenced to
spend the rest of his life there at hard
labor. He was arraigned in the Re-
corder's Court this morning on the
charge of murder. His attorney, who
was appointed by the court, raised the
question of Miller's sanity and Judge
Murphy accordingly appointed a COM
mission of three alienists, Drs. Emer-
son, Hitchcock and Kennedy, to ex-
anime Miller. His plea was withheld
pending their examination. After a
careful examination the physicians
came into court this afternoon and an
nounced that they were agreed that
that there was no symptom of insan-
ity in the defendant. Miller was then
ordered to plead and the confessed
murderer said in low voice: Guilty"
Evidence was then introduced to
prove the death of Miss Jennett. In
sentencing Miller, Judge Murphy
called him a demon, and said he con-
sidered that the sentence he was about
to impose on HIM was inadequate to his
horrible crime.
Mrs. Miller, who has been an invalid
for several years, is Frustrated at her
home and is in a dangerous condition.
She at first refused to believe her hus-
band guilty, even after he confessed,
but as the truth gradually forced itself
on her. she collapsed

ger OF the roads bottling up the State
ROAD. while railroad combinations are
very powerful, they cannot cope with
the state of Georgia, for if such at

such drastic legislation in Georgia that
the railroads would have to pay out
more money than they could make on
the transaction.
The railroads may attempt to de-

IN order to get the state to sell it at a
low price, but such an effort would
also fail. The people of Georgia wilt
