Admiral Dewey, I'm his testimony be-
fore the Philippine commission, told
his opinion OF Aguinaldo very concise
ly.
''Since you have asked my opinion"
said Dewey, in answer TO question.
II will say l believe Aguinaldo was
there for gain. for loot for money and
that independence never entered his
head"
Senator Carmack asked him why he
furnished such man arms and helped
to organize his army. to which the ad-
miral replied that ''all was fair I'm
war" and that there We're no Ameri-
can troops in the islands IN oppose the
Spaniards. When he assisted Aguinal-
do he did not call him n robber and
plunderer, but the 'insurgent leader
II say l think he was there for loot
and money" he continued do you
think he was there for ANYTHING elsei'

"Well, / swear / don't" said the adj
miral emphatically
Answering several questions the adj
miral said he thought he knew AgCl-
naldo better than Gen. Otis. Gen. Bell

of him. He had not been sin Manila
AZ hours before | saw he was there

thing he could lay his hands on from

The inquiry ended rather abruptly

A Tragedy NJ UnionNiIIe.

The 17-year-old son of Jim Henry
an Indian residing three miles west Of
Uniouville, was shot and killed Satur-
day afternoon by Al Adams. farmer.
The story as told by the excited
father of the boy is that Adams came
TO the Henry home and while there at
tempted to assault Mrs. Henry. The
hoy rushed to his mothers assistance
and i'm the fight which ensued Adams
drew revolver and fired three shots
at the boy, all three taking effect in
the head.
The story told by Adams varies
somewhat from the one told by Henry.
He states that the boy and his father
assailed him and that I'm self.defense
he fired the fatal shot at young Henry.
The fact that Adams is considerably
battered would seem TO substantiate
his story TO a certain extent. lie has
always borne Il good reputation.

was i'll came from Ascot about a week
ago, when il was announced that the
King was indisposed as result of
the exposure he had undergone Incl
dent TO the many social duties which
had devolved upon him.
As result Of the operation the
coronation ceremony has been In
definitely postponed
King Edward has not been well
man for many months past. AS far
back as last summer his majesty s
condition was such as to incite Il
prophecy that he would never be
crowned and it now looks as though
this prophecy might prove true. While
he has periods OF fairly good health
there has always been the fear that
he would have serious turn.
AT buckingham palace your CORE
spondent learned that the king has for
months been fearful that lie would
never get through the coronation. This
fear resulted in state of nervous de
preston which gave to the cold he
caught at Aldershot its chance TO be-
come serious. At first il was only
bowel trouble. but later more serious
developments set I'm.
1t is also learned that the stories of
the kings drive last week were fabri-
cations 10y court officials with a view
to allaying public anxiety. His majes-
ty was abed al the time and his auto
mobile drive 10 Windsor and his sub
seuuent drive 10 Buckingham were but
efforts with the same end In view.
His maiesty's anxiety not TO disap-
point the public was pathetic in the
extreme. Until the last he insisted he
would rally enough 10 struggle through
the ceremonies and urged the doctors
to wait until after these ceremonies
had been completed Only when he
was told that death was inevitable
unless an operation was performed did
he submit to the knife.
The reticence of the physicians re-
garding the kings pulse and tempera-
ture are not considered favorable.
During Wednesday the bulletins stated
that there was no particular change,
but the king was maintaining the inn
provement in his condition. There is
strong unconfirmed report that a
second operation will be necessary on
the king to remove the tube which the
physicians say was inserted To form
the continuity of the bowel The tube
must be removed and the bowel sewed
together. II is said the chance of sue
cess in such an operation is infinites-
imal. The operating surgeon says tho
chances of death are one in three.

Annexation Of Cuhn.

Mr.. Elkins CIV. Va.) addressed the
senate in support of his resolution pro-
vidlng for the annexation by the
United States Of the island of Cuba.
He said his resolution had been mis-.
understood. 1t had no bearing on Gu
ban reciprocity and was not intended
to have any. 1t simply voiced in con-
crete form his judgment that Cuba
ought TO be annexed to the United
States, and the sooner the better for
both countries. The resolution did not
suggest annexation Of Cuba in an Of
fensive way. 1t provided that the Gu
bans must take the initiative and only
after they had asked for annexation
could the United States act. For near
ly century, he said. the annexation
Of Cuba TO the United States had been
the ambition of American statesman
ship. lie pointed out that many dis
tinguished and patriotic American
statesmen, from Jefferson to Mckinley,
had favored annexation, and he
thought the present an opportune time
TO carry into effect the ll-defined
wishes Of majority Of the people OF
Cuba and the United States. 1t is IN
the interest of both countries.

ternoon at the home of his son-in-law,
Mr.. John NJ. Barton. in Detroit. The
early life OF Justice Long was strug
gle earnestly made 10 acquire an edu-
cation. When he was ready to enter
the university the civil war broke out
without hesitation the youth enlisted
as a private In the Eighth Michigan in
fantry. In the battle of Wilmington
Island. Ca, April IL. 1862. hardly
eight months after his enlistment, he
received two severe wounds, both of
which rendered him an invalid for life.
A shot shattered his left arm. which
had to be amputated above the elbow,
a bullet at nearly the same time struck
and pierced his hip. This bullet It
proved impossible To remove, and TO
the hour OF his death this never-heal-
ing wound which had to be dressed
every day. caused him untold suffer
ing and discomfort. AS soon as his
condition permitted. the young. in
yalided. but undaunted. veteran took
up the study OF law In Flint.
In April. 1887. he took his seat as
Justice of the Supreme Court OF Mich
igan after election OF the Republican
ticket. by vote. in round numbers. OF
1T4.OOO to 10000 for G. III. Camp.
April >. 1897. he was reelected for the
full term of 10 yearsby a vote of 201,-
600 to 10000 for Geo. l.. Yaplc.
December 6. 1868. he married Miss
Alma A. Franklin. of Genesee county.
His two daughters Mrs John NJ.
Barton. and Mrs. Mae Schremser, and
one son, Burt T.. Long, a police serg-
cant. reside In Detroit.

Judge Longs Successor.

Gov. Bliss says that at present he
will take no action regarding success
sor to Justice Long. Of the Supreme
Court, preferring to leave the selection
to a state convention, which lawyers
generally agree must he called i'm order
to legalize the nomination. A nominal
ton by the state central committee
would be of doubtful validity. How
ever, the attorney general will give an
opinion i'm the matter.
The Supreme Court will hear no

a new man could not participate in the
determination of cases already heard
and now pending.
