FULL OF
MYSTERY,

The police department is full Of
mystery just at the present time and
when the reporter ask a question
he is regarded like small poX pa
tlcnl. All the same the houses of
citizens are being robbed and no one
is arrested,
The seven robberies committed last
winter were u mystery till the New
Castle offer arrested the burglar ana
then every cop on the force could
tell where they saw Allen. 1t is best
for the people Of Wilmington to know
that burglars are about and that the
police 50 far have failed to catch
them.
A poor harmless colored man stops
on the corner along Front street aud
cop for record makes an arrest.
Better send these intelligent record
breakers to other districts and let
them arrest suspicious characters. 1t
Is beginning to look more like perse-
cullon than prosecution A colorcd
man walks from a saloon. stops for a
moment ana IS arrested. The officer
should read the ordinance for it saws
there IS something to be done before
the man is arrested
Another attempt was made carly
this morning to rob the residence Of
Grecnwcll at Fifth avenue and Brown
street. lie chased the party for over
d square and then went to the store

THIS time that the bread box in front
Of, his store had been brol en- open and
bread, pies and rolls were taken. The
alleged thief will be arrested today
should the police be abl, to come up
with him. There is no necessity for 50
much secrecy among the police.

in support of the Nicaragua route and
MIR. Allison ua., in support of the
Spooner proposition. Only minor amend
ments, except those indicated, We're
adopted, all Others being voted down.
The senate had some debate over the
trouble into which it has got with the
house over amendments to the army
appropriation bill and finally asked for
conference with the house. ignoring
the offensive message which caused
the trouble
The opening day Of the weeks de-
bate OIL the Philippines government
Dill in the house was signalized by a
remarkably strong and exhaustive
speech by Mr.. Cooper (Wis.), chairman
OF the committee on instllar affairs.
He spoke for almost three hours and
was given close attention by both
sides of the house
Mr. Jones (Na.), the ranking member
Of the minority of the committee.
made an able presentation of the Dem.
ocratc position, but he yielded the
floor after speaking about an hour.
1t is expected by the leaders on both
sides Of the Cuban reciprocity question
IN the senate that today's Republican
conference will be final and that after
the adjournment of the conference if
will be definitely known whether the
Cuban committee will report a bill or
not. Some Of the reciprocity advocates
say they still hope to accomplish some
thing. Others admit the prospect is not
bright.
The friends Of beet sugar say they
have announced their position and will
not change their attitude toward the
proposed legislation. They also gcner
ally speak in opposition to reciproc-
ny treaty and express the opinion that
the entire question should be allowed
to 90 over until next session. They are
not disposed to pledge themselves to
support treaty in advance of its ne
gOtiation.

FOR PANAMA ROUTE
Senate Passes Spooner Bill
by Vote Of AZ to "a.
St30,00O,00O IN BONDS PROVIDED.
The Measure Empowers President to
Select Panama Waterway II Title
IL Good, Otherwise He Shall
Adopt Nicaragua Plan.

WASHINGTON, June 20.-An 18TH
milan canal, while not yet absolutely
assured, Is nearer to construction than
it ever has been. The senate yesterday
by majority of eight votes adopted
the Spooner substitute for the Hepburn
Nicaragua canal bill, the vote OH the
substitute being AZ to "a. After two
amendments to the measure had been
adopted, one providing for commits
sion to supervise the construction of
the canal and the other providing for
the issuance of $3.50, 100000 Of 2 per
cent gold bonds to raise money with
which to construct the waterway, it
was passed by vote of G7 to 8.
1t has been evident for several DAYS
that the Spo0ner substitute, which in
brief provides that the president shall
select the Panama route if he can OBJ
tain clear title to the Panama Canal
cOmpanys property, but otherwise he
shall adopt the Nicaragua route, would
command the votes of a majority of
the senate. The Panama route was
considered more desirable By the SELL
ate than the Nicaragua route. The
only question left open is the title to
the property, and that the president
will determine if the house should
adopt the senate's amendment to it's
bill.
Mr.. Morgan (Ala.) closed the days
debate with an earnest appeal for the
adoption Of the Nicaragua route. He
had been preceded by Mr. Clark (Mont.)

Barrow Asks Pardon For Wife,

MIDDLETOWN, N. Y, June 90
George 3. Barrow, who is serving a
sentence at Dannemora prison for the
kidnapping Of Marion Clark in New
York, has just written long letter to
Mayor Hook of Goshen, entreating him
to exert all possible influence to secure
the pardon of Mrs. Barrow, his wife,
who is serving sentence in Auburn
prison for the same crime. Barrow,
who is the son of Judge G. Barrow of
Little Rock, Ark, declared he forced
his wife to commit the crime, which he
planned for the purpose of covering the
New York police department with rid
icule and ignominy and that he did not
desire ransom. Governor Odell will
soon be asked to pardon Mrs. Barrow.

ROOT GIVES FIGURES
Cost Of the Philippine War to
Date $l7O,3 ,586.
The SECRETARY EXPLAINS TO SENATE
Continued Army Reduction Has Cut
Down Expenses, and Much of the
Outlay Would Have Occurred
In Time OF Peace.

WASHINGTON, June 2O.-Secretar,
Root has made answer to the senat,
resolution of April II calling for infor
nation as to the cost of the war in The
Philippines. 1t is shown that $4,000
was advanced for the expenses of the
Philippine commission originally from
the United States treasury, but this
amount afterward was reimbursed Out
of the Philippine treasury. For rail
road transportation of troops and sup.
plies to and from the Philippines since
the peace treaty was ratified the cost
has been $4.SO3,4 ,44S.
Reports from the various bureau Off
GERS are submitted to show the cost of
the Philippine war, including outstand-
ing obligations, showing that the total
up to date is $17O,32G, $50.
Secretary Root concludes with the
following explanation:
Attention is invited to the fact that
large quantities of valuable property,
such as ships, lighters, etc, horses and

page and ordnance, medical, signal and
engineer supplies, the cost of which is
included in the foregoing statement
Still remain on hand in the Phiippine
Islands for use Parts of these sup
plies are already being reshipped to
this country.
ut should also be observed that
large part of the expense during the
past year should not properly be treat
ed as occasicned by military operations
in the Philippine Islands, for the rea-
son that 1t consists of pay and main
tenance of troops whom we would have
had to pay and maintain whether they
were in the Philippines or not in order
to keep up the minimum number of
regular troops required by law as
safeguard against future contingent
cies. The minimum at which the reg
uar army is required to be maintained
by the act Of Feb. 2, 1901, is 59,G57
men, and the maximum is 100000. We
have now less than 10000 in excess of
the minimum number The cost of
that excess only is properly to be treat
ed as occasioned by operations in the
Philippines.
"Tle present scale Of expense in the
Philippines is of course greatly re-
duced from that shown in the forego-
ing statement, because of the continu-
GUS reduction of the army made posi-
bic by the restoration of peaceful con.
ditiOns. Thus in the middle of the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1901. there
were about 10000 American soldiers
in the islands. That number is now
reduced to about $4,000. Orders have
now been issued for the return of the |
Eighth, Fifteenth, Twenty-fourth and
Twenty-tifth infantry and squadron
of the Tenth cavalry, and when these
orders have been executed the number
of American troops in the Philippines
will have been reduced to $4,000. For
the past six months we have been
bringing troops home as rapidly as we
could do so economically by the use of |
our own transports"
