EXECUTION OF TRAITORS.
Two Deserters From the 9th Cavalry
Who Joined the FilipinOs.

Two soldiers were probably hanged in the
Philippines today in execution of sentences
imposed by military commission by which
they were tried and convicted of deserting
to the enemy in violation of the laws of
and Lewis Russell, and both were attached
to Company f of the 9th Cavalry. While
their company was operating against the
insurgents in the province of Albay in Au-
gust last the two men deserted and were
afterward discovered serving in the ranks
of the enemy.
The military commission before which
they We're tried sat at Guinobatan, in the
province of Albay. They were found guilty
OF the charge and each was sentenced to
be hanged Friday, February 7. The find
ings and sentence in each case were ap-
proved by General Chaffee, commanding
the division of the Philippines, and he di-
rected the execution OF both sentences. In
view of the fact. however, that this was the
had directed the execution of the sentence
of death imposed by military commission
against an enlisted man without reference
TO the War Department the case was laid
before President Roosevelt in time to pre-
vent the execution OF the sentences in case
he desired TO do so. The President, after
consultation with the Secretary of War
declined to interfere, and a cable MESA ge
was sent to General Chaffee Wednesday To
the effect that the authorities at Washing
ton regarded the trial of deserters to the
enemy by military commission as lawful
Although no official information to that
effect has been received, 1t is assumed at
the War Department that the sentence of
death in each case was carried into effect
today.

DRAFTING THE INDIAN BILL.

Dawes COmmfssiOn Cut. Down and
Eleven Agencies Abolished.
The Indian appropriation bill is nearly in
shape to be reported to the House. The
subcommittee has finished Its consldera-
ton and the entire committee on Indian
affairs has taken the measure up and will
doubtless order it reporte6 at its meeting
tomorrow.
The bill carries betwaeE $1,000, 600 and
$S000.Oo0. The principal changes made in
the machinery for caring the Indians
are the cutting down of the Dawes Indian
commission from four to three smembers
and the abolition of eleven Indian aEents.
The tribal tax, which is levied on persons
going into the Indian territory TO engage
IN business, was the subject OF q lively
discussion In the committee aK its meeting
yesterday. This tax amounts to from S.
to $50, and Is collected by the Indian po-
lice and used for the support Of the Indian
schoois IN the territory, II D refusal to
pay II Is made the person so fefustng Is
at once banfshed from the territory.
when the provision in the shiil for the
support or the Indian police was reached
by the committee Mr. Stevens of Texas
moved to amend the bill by inserting a
provision that these police should not be
given authority to Danish persons for not
paying this tribal tax. Mr.. Little favored
the amendment, and Mr.. Curtis opposed
1t. 1t was defeated by the republican
party vote. 80 g

ADMIRAL WALKER HEARD.
Tells Why the COmmis ion RecOm-
mended the Panama Route.

Admiral John G. Walker, chairman Of the
isthmian canal commission, testified before
the Senate committee on interoceanic
canals today. He went over much of the
ground covered by the reports of that COM
mission, and in reply to numerous questions
explained the reasons for the recent recon-
mendation for the acceptance of the offer Of
the Panama Canal Company.
In replying to these inquiries Admiral
Walker spoke at some length upon the en-
gineering features of the two canals.
Senator Harris questioned him especially
with reference to the difficulty of excavat-
ing for the Bohio dam, developing the fact
that it would be necessary to sink the pro-
posed piers to a greater depth than had
ever been done for such purpose. The
foundation of the pier will be 125 feet below
sea level, and the witness said there were
differences of opinion as to the atmospheric
pressure and the possibility of seepage at
this depth in that climate. He said that
with reference to seepage the engineers of
the commission had not agreed.
Admiral Walker also was questioned con-
cerning the possibility of utilizing the
ChagreS river as part of the canal. He
ADMITTED that 1t is a torrential stream, but
expressed the opinion that 1t could be safely
confined. With reference to the estimate
that ten years would be necessary to build
the Panama canal, while eight years would
SuiiiSS ioi lie SoiiSli ucllon OI the canal Dy
the Nicaragua route, he said that the diff
ference against the Panama route was due
largely to the extent of the great Culebra
cut and the Bohio dam. He thought that in
ordinary weather steam vessels would be
able to make their way through the Pana-
ma canal without being towed, but that
towage might be necessary when the winds
are high. He expressed the opinion that
Brito harbor at the Pacific end Of the Mica
ragua route would possess advantage
over the Panama harbor in that vessels
would be Immediately able to avail them
selves in the former of the trade winds.
while in Panama bay they would not secure
this advantage until towed out to sea.
However, he thought that good harbors
could be cheaply secured at the western
terminals of both routes.

Republican Majority I'm Ohio LeGfsla-
ture Organized against Him.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, February 7.-Whether
it was true or not, as claimed by Senator
Hanna, that the fight made by Senator For
aker's friends for the organization Of the
legislature was the initial movement in
plan to prevent his CIanna's) reelection to
the Senate, such plan is evidently being
worked out now, and combination of the
Foraker and Daugherty factions has been
made for the purpose. The Daugherty
strength went to Hanna in the house Or
ganzation, and by that the senator was
able to secure the organization, but beyond
a doubt Daugherty is now working with the
Foraker leaders. Wednesday night a repub
lican house caucus deposed Cummings,
strong Hanna man, from the position of
party leader on the floor and substituted
Painter of Wood Daugherty man, and
A. f.. Price of Athens a Foraker man,
joint leaders 1t is reported, and with the
appearance of credibility, that Daugherty
will probably be the Foraker candidate for
governor two years hence. Representative
r. w. Tayler of Columbiana county, to
whom that faction was at first inclined,
having shown no strength in the house
organization fight every member from his
district voted with Senator Hanna and
against the wishes of Mr.. Tayler. The new
combination is strong one, and will prob
ably be able to retire Senator Hanna. But
Foraker and Daugherty are bitter personal
enemies, and have been since the Sherman
Foraker contest.

THE RAILROAD BRIDGE.
MIR. Burnham's Letter to Secrets
Root ON the Subject.

Mr.. Burnham's Letter to Secretary
Root ON the Subject.
Secretary Root has received the following
letter from Mr.. D. II. Burnham of Chicago,
a member Of the park commission, in re-
gard to the railway bridge. to be built by
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company over
the Potomac river:
Il have the honor to report as follows re-
garding the railway bridge over the Po-
tomac:
list. That a stone bridge is not possible,
because the navigation Of the Potomac re-
quires draw to permit the passage Of
vessels up to Georgetown. A bridge partly
of stone arches broken in upon by steel
truss would not look at all we'll.
I'd. A bridge constructed of stone piers
and steel trusses resting upon them is the
best.
''The accompanying design made by the
chief engineer Of the Pennsylvania Railway
Company Is, constructively, satisfactory,
but 1t will look much better II the top
cords Of the trusses be apparently contin-
uous. If this be done recommend that
the bridge be approved
"A stone pier steel-arch bridge is not pos
sible where draw is introduced. The
Bascule principle might indeed be intro
duced for the draw, but this form is deemed
by the engineers to be unsafe for heavy
railway traffic. Apart from the Bascule
for the draw 1 know Of no truss that would
not project above the line of the steel
arches, thus introducing the very element
Of design that should be avoided.
There Is no treatment for the stone piers
that is better than the simple one adopted
in the accompanying blue print. 1 have
tried to devise a method giving these piers
more Importance, but am convinced that
utter simplicity Is best
Il do not favor any structure at the ends
OF the bridge on shore. The railway peo-
pie expressed a willingness to construct
anything might suggest for these places
bu. feel that these are not proper loca-
tions for monumental treatment
I'm short, the simpler this bridge is
made the better it will appear, the lines Of
the steel being kept apparently continuous
Il have the honor to remain with re-
spect, your obedient servant.
I'D. H. BURNHAM."

"OPEN DOOR, IN MANCHURIA.
The United States Firm I'm Opposing G

While details of the negotiations cannot

shoulder to shoulder with Japan and Great
Britain in resisting any action by Russia
and China in the shape of a Manchurian
treaty that would threaten the interests

May BE Filled by Selecting Any One of
the Graduating Class.
Secretary Long has been obliged to dts
approve Of a recommendation Of the gen.
eral board respecting the admission of ma
val constructors to the service. The board
has been giving a great deal Of attention
to the serious crisis confronting the navy,
caused by the insufficient number Of junior
officers at present, and the poor prospective
inadeQuacy Of the Naval Academy to sup
ply the need. So far the board has been
unable to hit upon any plan that will re-
lieve the situation entirely in the immediate
future. But as a measure Of amelioration it
has recommended that the practice be dis
continued Of transferring to the Construc-
tion Corps the three cadets that annually
graduate at the head of their class at An
napolis. Instead they would give these ca
dets line places and appoint naval con-
structors from civil life.
Secretary Long. however, has disapproved
this recommendation, though he has quail
fed the disapproval by an amendment Of the
present practice so that the highest three
graduates are not necessarily to go into the
Construction Corps, but that vacancies in
that corps may be filled by the selection of
any one OF the graduates.
