TO FIND FOR METcALF7
Sub Committee or Senate Pension Com
mjttee Does Not Bel eve the Kansan
Killed Filipino Prisoners.

Washington, Jan. 27..The subcom
mittee of the senate committee Ola
pensions which has been engaged for
the past week in making an mvesti-
CATION against Gen. Wilder S. Metcalf,
who has been nominated for the of
fee of pension agent at Topeka, Kan,
probably will make a partial report
to the full committee at it's next
meeting to-day. The subcommittee
finds itself in somewhat of a guam
dry because of the conflicting nature
of the testimony that had been adj
duced. This conflict is not entirely
confined to different individuals, but
in some cases the same person makes
afidavits ON both sides of the contro-
versy. Because of this condition the
subcommittee is in doubt whether to
ask for further time for investigation
or to report the facts as far as they
are developed, leaving the full COM
mittee to deal with the case as it may
decide advisable. The conclusion SO
far reached is that Filipino prisoners
were certainly killed and that no
steps were taken to punish those who
killed them, but that general, then
Maj Metcalf, did not know of the
killing until after it had occurred.

MRS RICHARDSON ACQUITTED
Tho Jurors Were Out Only Thirty Min
utes and Took One Bailot-A Demon
stration IN the Court Room.

Plattsburg, Mo-, Jan. 27-There
was a remarkable scene in the Clin-
ton county courthouse Saturday aft
ernoon when the jury returned the
verdict declaring Mrs. Addie b. RICH
ardson not guilty of the murder of
her husband. The jury was out 80
minutes-just long enough to elect
Alexander Shepherd foreman, read
the instructions and take one bal
lot. The jurors were ranged in front
of the railing that divides the court
room. Mrs. Richardson sat just out
side the railing, her back to the
jurors and her head bowed. The
talking and gossiping ceased. The
clerk read, the words: "Not guilty"
The crowd cheered. 1t was fully
five minutes before Judge Burns
could restore order. Mrs. Richard
son rose and placed her hands to her
face. Just then her father-in-law,
John D. Richardson, clasped her in
his arms and kissed her.

CONCEDED EVERY POINT.
In the Sale Of the Danish West indies
Denmark Gave the United States
D Free Hand.

Washington, Jan. 25.-The treaty of
cession of the Danish West Indies
islands from Denmark to the United
States was signed at the state depart
ment Fridaysby Secretary Hay and
Constantine Brun, the Danish minis
ter. The treaty was then submitted
to the senate for ratification.
Following the invariable rule in
such cases, the state department Off
Gals decline to make public any of
the details of the treaty, SO that it
is not possible to state positively
the price to be paid, though this is
believed to be in the neighborhood
of $5,000,0O0. It is known also that
Denmark has abandoned the position
she was inclined to occupy toward the
conservation of the political rights of
the inhabitants of the island and
leaves the United States a free
hand to deal with them without
pledge of American citizenship or of
free trade privileges.

A NEW PARTY ORGANIZED!
Consultation Adopted by the National
Liberal Party-rhe Free Love EIe-
ment Not Admitted.

Cincinnati, Jan. 27.-The national
liberal party was organized here yes
terday by representatives from all
parts of the country. The preamble
to the new constitution that was
adopted declares for the separation
of church and state to the extent Of
abolishing chaplains in the army and
navy, legislative bodies and all pub
lie institutions, the taxation of
church property and abandonment of
Sabbath observance. The national
party is the amalgamation for politi-
cal purposes of free thinkers, and it
is more distinctly in politics than the
American Secular union. The free
love element was not admitted inc
the new organization, but the woman
suffragists were admitted. At the
Thomas Paine memorial last night
addresses were made by C. S. barrow,
Of Chicago; J. T. Wyscarver and
others. Officers will be elected to-
day.

Democratic Senator's Talk Harshly
< Of Affairs in Philippines.
Dubois Wants Gen. Wheaton Reprimanded
and Teller Says Natives Are Arrested In
Manila for Expressing Desi
for Independence.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-An animated
and prolonged discussion was precip-
ita5ed in the senate yesterday over
fhe right of army officers to criticise
.Ltterances made in he senate or else
,:here on the conduct of affairs in
the Philippines. At, times it became
somewhat acrimonious, officers in
the Philippines being taken sharply
ID task for statements attributed to
them in dispatches from Manila.
kissing to a question of privilege ear
ly in the session, Senator Dubois, OF
Idaho, had read an Associated press
dispatch from Manila in which Gen.
Wheaton. was quoted as criticising
some .utterances of Prof. Schurman
in a speech delivered in Boston. Sem
ator Dubois thought the president, in
the circumstances, would be war
ranted. in reprimanding Gen. Wheat
on for his utterances. He declared
that such comment upon the action
of the senate was Outrageous and
indecent" and that the minority had
had quite enough of threats and
blackmail.
unA ASiiCI \Soi.J Sdio ouOh q SiCoo
ton as had arisen was one of the
blessings growing out of the condi-
tions in the Philippines. A paddock,
he asserted, was to be placed upon the
mouth of every man, congressman or
private citizen, and all criticism of the
Administrations Philippine policy was
to be silenced. He referred to the
criticism of senators who had antag-
onized the administrations policy in
the Philippines, declaring they had
been charged even with treason.
Nothing Concealed. Says Taft.
Chicago, Jan. 2S.-Gov. Taft, of the
Philippines, who was here Sunday en-
route to Cincinnati, said: THE only
answer I'have to make to the ideas of
individual observers, who declare that
the true condition of the Philippines
is being concealed, or that we are
hugging decisions of peace that can
never be. drought about, is that the
government is concealing nothing, and
that it's Conclusions are not based on
wild theories, but substantial facts
Gov. Taft said that although there
was a time when, for military rea-
sons, it had not been advisable to
make public everything occurring in
the Philippines, the necessity for such
secrecy is oyer, and that no effort is
now being made to conceal any part
of the truth from the people Of this
country.
