REDouBr VOLCANO ERUPTION.
Passengers From Cook Inlet Confirm
Previous RumorS

SEATTLE, Wash, June 3.-Passengers
from Cook Inlet who have arrived by the
Chico, confirm previous rumors Of another
eruption of Redoubt volcano. which Is on
the west side, about forty miles northwest
of Iliamna.
Among them was A. c. Losey of Tacoma,
employe of the Trans-Alaska Company,
who saw the eruption. He sailed from
Uiamna on the morning of May g. From
lamna only heavy smoke was to be seen
in the direction of Redoubt.
Precipitous mountains shut off the view
until the Chico reached point twenty
miles or SO up the inlet, when the sight
became thrilling. Dense black clouds COW
cred the entire region, spreading entirely
over Cook Inlet.
At times the smoke directly over the vol
cano region was lighted to a dark gray,
but no flames were seen during the day,
and no ashes reached the ship.
When evening fell bright flames flashed
up and lighted the whole sky in that direc-
tion. The ships course out of the inlet
left the volcano directly to the westward,
at which point Mr. Losey says, there
seemed a continues sheet Of fire rising,
probably miles high.

TO CUT DOWN THE PRINTING.
Numerous Reports of Subordinate Off
GERS Will Be Merely Summarized.

The Secretary of War has issued an or
der in the interests of economy which
affects practically every branch of the
War Department and every department of
the army. It is self-explanatory and es-
tablishes a policy which may be followed
by the executive departments. 1t is as fol-
lows:
THE attention of officers in command Of
military departments and commands in
the field, and of chiefs of bureaus of the
War Department, is called to the mex
pediency of the practice which has re-
Gently grown up of printing in full the re-
ports of subordinate commanders, staff
officers and others, as appendices to annual
reports. The mass of documents thus col
lected and printed has become so great
that the mere bulk of the reports prevents
their being read or consulted and involves
very great expense for practically useless
printing.
Commanding officers of military depart
ments and commands in the field, and chiefs
Of bureaus, will be expected hereafter to
give in their own reports such resume of
the reports of their SubOrdinateS and such
expressions on the important features of
those reports as they deem wise, and they
alone will henceforth be printed, the manu-
script reports of subordinate commanders.

professional value, being simply filed in the
