POLICEMEN UNDER CHARGES.
Report and Recommendation Made by
Major Sylvester.

Maj. Sylvester, superintendent of police,
has forwarded to the District Commission
ers the papers in the cases of Privates
Joseph Shipley and D. w. Coombs of the
police force, charged by Acting Lieut.. w.
H. Mathews of the second precinct with
entering the stOrehouse of the government
printing office and remaining there upward
of an hour. The matter was brought be-
fore the trial board, and as result of the
Investigation the men pleaded guilty,
Coombs claiming in eXtenuation that it
was raining and he had no rubber coat, and
was suffering at the time wit a heavy
cold and sore throat.
In reporting on the cases Maj. Sylvester
says:
1T is important that members of the
force make provision against rain, and l
believe generally that they do. The tenn
poraY stepping aside out of the rain on the
part of an officer is not a serious offense,
but for two officers on beat to go into a
place and sit down is a matter of entirely
different character.
Il had always entertained high opinion
Of these officers. and it hurts me very
much to be called upon to administer disci-
pline in their cases. If Private Coombs
was so sick as to require him to be out Of
the weather 1t was his duty to have taken
precautions to secure proper treatment or
housing rather than to take the matter into
his own hands as to the manner in which
he should perform service.
THE officers are each fined ten days
leave of absence to which they would be
otherwise entitled, with the admonition
that any violation of the regulations on
their part in the future. when esta blished
will be taken into consideration with this
charge"

MILLIONS OF BUFFALO.
Killed for Their Skins on the Western
Praries IN the Early Days.
From Outing.

In the forties. when the American Fur
Company was in the heydey of its power,
there were sent from St. Louis alone in a
single year 100000 robes; and the company
bought only the perfect ones. The hunter
usually kept an ample supply for his own
needs, so that for every robe bought by the
company three times as many were taken
from the plains. St Louis was only one
port of shipment. Equal quantities OF robes
were being sent from Mackinaw, Detroit,
Montreal and Hudson Bay. A million
would not cover the number of robes sent
east each year in the forties In 1868 In
man. Sheridan and Custer rode continuous
ly for three days through one herd in the
Arkansas region; and in 1869 trains on the
Kansas Pacific We're held from in the
morning until at night to permit the pas
sage of one herd across the tracks Army
officers relate that in 1862 herd that COW

and employees Of the fur companies consid-
cred drove of 100000 buffalo a common

the bone Of thirty-one million buffalo were
shipped between 1868 and 1881.

DUTY OF PATRIOTS.
Secretary Of Sons of Revolution Urges
Fourth of July Observance.

Mr.. Barry Buckley, historian Of the local
chapter Sons of the Revolution, has sent
a letter to Commissioner Macfarland, con-
corning the latter's interview in The Star
OF Saturday, on the recent celebration OF
Independence day in Washington, in the
course Of which Mr.. Buckley says:
Some years ago the District of Columbia
Society of Sons of the Revolution inaugu-
rated and successfully carried out the plan
OF holding public exercises on the Fourth of
July at the base Of the Washington mon
ument. and later on they had on such oc-
casions the Cooperation of the Sons OF the
American Revolution. The greatest inter-
est appeared to be stimulated by these ex-
ercises and continued for two or three
years. when because Of the intense heat
and lack of public interest it was deemed
wise to discontinue them and to transfer
the occasions to the theater There the
attendance became even more meager than
" had been at the monument, and although
the programs were Of unusual order of ex-
cellence and Of the very highest character
was impossible to awaken enthusiasm or
70 secure the support OF our people.
mot disheartened by these attempts
our society and the Sons Of the American
Revolution decided to hold church services
put with results more discouraging than
those attendant upon the gatherings re-
ferred to. This year 1t was decided, with
much regret. to abandon all effort at pub
lie display: I feel. however. that discour-
eging as the situation may seem, it Is not
devoid Of hope, and believe that the cit
zens OF the District of Columbia should
hereafter be called upon through the Com
missioners and through the patriotic socie-
ties, the Oldest Inhabitants and all citizens
organizations. to unite on the Fourth of
July in a demonstration Of patriotism,
and l further believe that the exercises
should be held in the open air at some
central point and one more accessible than
the monument grounds
Il beg to assure you that II there is any
way by which l can assist such a meye-
ment my services will be at your disposal,
and, II We are unsuccessful in having the
public turn out, we will at least have the
satisfaction Of having done our duty as
patriotic citixenA"

Mckinley of the 9th Cavalry acted as in


Aguinaldo was told that he was free to
go anywhere he pleased, and General Chat
fee asked him II he had any complaint to
make Of American discourtesy or harsh
ness. Aguinaldo replied that he had no
such complaint to make. He told General
Chaffee that he wes going to visit friends
at his home in Cavite VieJo, in Cavite
province, and inquired what protection the
American authorities would afford him.
He seemed to be afraid to venture out
General Chaffee replied that Aguinaldo
would get the same protection as any other
citizen.
The former Filipino leader then asked
General Chaffee to prevent the courts from
requiring him to testify in civil suits. Cen
eral Chafree replied that he had no au-
thority to grant this request, and advised
Aguinaldo to make a social call upon Act
ing Civil Governor Wright. This Agui-
naldo said he would do. but that he would
go at night, as he was timid about ap-
pearing on the streets In daylight.
The release Of the former Filipino leader
has renewed speculation as to possible
vengeance upon him by friends OF Luna
and his other enemies
Luna was Filipino leader whom Agui-
naldo caused to be killed in 1890.
