ASTOUNDING THEFTs.
Cashier of the First National Bank at
Great Falls, Mont, Short In His
Accounts SI75,OOO.

St. Paul, Mimi, Jan. 21.-A special
to the Pioneer Press from Helena,
Mont, says: Herbert H. Matteson,
cashier of the First national bank of
Great Falls, was arrested here yester-
day on a warrant issued by United
States Commissioner Russell, at the
request of District Attorney Rodgers,
who charged him with embezzling
$4,000 of the banks funds on. Janu-
airy Is.
It is understood that Matteson's
defalcation amounts to much more
than the sum named in the complaint.
The officer who accompanied Matte
son to Helena yesterday said that it
was believed the total amount he is
alleged to be short would reach
$175,OOo. Speculation, it is said, was
the cause of the defalcation. The
bank is strong financially and is in
no danger of embarrassment.

TIRES OF LENIENCY.
Geo. Bell Adopts Drastic Measures
for Rebels in Batangas.
Friendly Natives Will Be Concentrated and
All Others VIII Be Run to Earth and
When Caught VIII Be
Executed.

Washington, Jan. 21.--Having failed
after two years strife in subduing
the instruction in Batangas province,
which lies just south of Manila, and
having satisfied himself that lenient
treatment of the insurgents is pro-
ductive of no good results, Gen. J.
Franklin Bell, the military command
er in that province, has determined
on the enforcement of the war in the
most vigorous and determined fash
ion, involving the recommendation in
a modified form, the application of
martial law in all directions, and the
unsparing pursuit and punishment of
the natives who act as spies and
traitors to the United States.
The recommendation provides for
the establishment of a zone around
the garrisons in which the friendly
inhabitants are to be required to
come under penalty of confscation
and destruction of their property.
This is said to be necessary to pre-
vent the collection of forced contri-
buttons from the inhabitants by the
insurgents. The military officers are
allowed to fix the price of necessaries
of life, and it is promised that the
people may return as soon as peace
full conditions are established.
Gen. Bell directs the applica ton of
general order No. 100. in force dur
ing the civil war in the United States,
which practically regards an insur-
gent as a guerrilla and outside the
pale of civilized warfare, and subject
to the death penalty wherever such
msurgent does not engage continu-
ously in the war and observe all the
rules of DUar
