torious Conduct.

General Corbin has made public the
report of the army board, of which
General Macarthur was president, ap-
pointed to consider and report the
names of officers and enlisted men of
the army who distinguished them
selves during the recent campaigns
in Cuba, China and the Philippines so
as to entitle them to the reward of
medals of honor or certificates of

brevet rank for special or meritorious
services during the same campaigns

cases, of which 10 go to commissioned
officers and % to non-commissioned
officers and privates. Only one medal
is awarded on account of service in
Cuba, two for the Chinese campaign

medal list shows few names of per.
sons familiar to the public, perhaps
the most notable ones being those Of
Musician Calvin P. Titus, who was the
first to scale the wall at Peking and
who afterward was sent to West
Point. and Lieutenant Matthew A.

{, o. --
Ell Paso, Tex, Feb. 15.-Pursuant to
instructions from Governor Otero Of
New Mexico the sheriffs of Gauda-
lupe, Union, Lincoln and Chaves coun-
ties are organizing posses of picked
men to hunt down the members of the
Jack Muskrove band of bandits which
has recently terrorized that region.
This means that a war Of extermina-
tion will be waged against the outlaws
and exciting times are expected in
that portion Of New Mexico to which
the outlaws have retreated. They are
said to be in the Businesses of the
wild Captain mountains. The govern

SUITS RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT.
Provisions Of the Anglo-Japanese
Treaty Entirely Satisfactory to
@ that Government.
Integrity of China and independence
Of Korea Vouchsafed by the
d Treaty.
Foreign Insurance Companies Protect.
ed Against Tax Discrimination
in Iowa.

ST. Petersburg, Feb. 15.-The Rus:
sian official view of the Anglo-Japan-
ese treaty was communicated to the
correspondent of the Associated Press
as follows:
4 1--WE accept the news of the entente
with the most complete equanimity
and are very happy to ascertain that
England and Japan are pledged to
maintain the integrity of China and
the independence of Korea, two prin-
ciples which Russia was the first to
establish as the basis of her foreign
policy in the Orient. Russia would
willingly have subscribed to the agree
ments in the preamble. The English
Japanese say their convention has
only essentially pacific aims. This
makes it all the more astonishing
when they speak of war and coali-
tions. What power they have in view
we cannot say. But in any case, if
peace is menaced in the extreme Ori-
ent, Russia, for her part; will not fail
to take all the measures necessary to
safeguard her interests. All Russia S
"
conventions with Japan have aimed
at the preservation Of the integrity
Of China and the independence of Ko
rea; and it is true that Minister Kui
no came to us Immediately to commu
nicate the text of the agreement and
give the most amicable assurances
We have reason to believe it is not
true that America, with which we re
main in perfect accord, is silent part
ner in the affair. We have giveI
America positive assurances that Rus
sia will do nothing which will disturb
the interests of America in China
We do not believe America is anxious
about the situation. Furthermore, We
have received satisfactory assurance
that America is not taking any step:
against us in China"

PRESIDENT AT WASHINGTON.
Returns From His Boys Bedside In q
Happy Frame of Mind.

Washington, Feb. 15.-President
Roosevelt returned to the White
House during the forenoon in a very
happy frame Of mind after five anx-
ious days at che bedside of his boy,
who has been critically i'll with pneu-
monia al Grcton, Mass. The journey
back to the seat of government was
made much more leisurely than the
hasty dash into New England last
Sunday, when the presidents anxiety
to reach his son outran the fastest
special train. The trip to Groton was
made in Ia hours but 18 were consum-
ed in the return, and in his homecom-
ing the president had a chance to
make three short rear-car speeches
to crowds at Worcester, Woonsocket
and Providence. In each case he as
sured the waiting hundreds that Tied"
was "out of the woods and in each
case the crowd seemed as joyous as
the president and cheered vociferous-
ly. The journey after leaving Provi-
dence was uneventful.
There were only few people at the
Pennsylvania station here when the
president arrived. Assistant Secre-
tary Loeb met him and the party was
driven rapidly to the White House.

cLAY's VIGOROUS PROTEST.
Objects to Employment of Extra
Clerks and MESSENGERS.

Washington, Feb. 15.-When the
senate met resolutions for the employ
ment of extra clerks and messengers
were favorably reported by the COM
mittee on contingent expenses. These
called out a vigorous protest from Mr..
Clay (Ga.). He pointed out 5that DUR
ing the past 80 days more than 20 ex-
ira messengers and clerks had been
employed at salary of $1,440 each
per year. He had been informed, he
said, that nine of these employees
were for committees that had not
had meeting in eight or ten years.
The statement by Mr.. Clay started
quite lengthy discussion of the SUBJ
ject of senate employees, participated
in by Senators Hoar, Berry, Lodge,
Teller, Turner, Allison, Platt (Conn.) ,
Gallinger,. Spooner and Dubois. The
resolution was recommitted with in
structions to Investigate the clerical
force of the senate.
The senate then began the consider
alton of the house bill creatinga per-
manent census bureau.

DISCUSSED BY CABINET.
Presidents Reply to the Appeal OF
Admiral Schley.

Washington, Feb. 15.-One of the
principal subjects discussed at the
cabinet meeting was the reply which
the president will make to the appeal
of Admiral Schley. The president has
given a good deal of attention to the
matter and it is understood that in the
course of a few days, probably by the
middle of next week, he will be ready
to announce his conclusions. Mem
bers of the cabinet are extremely reti-
cent as to what the presidents views
are beyond the statement that his de-
cision undoubtedly will clear the at
mosphere somewhat upon many of the
involved questions. The cabinet also
talked over the coming of. Prince Hen
ry and Secretary Hay referred Incl
dentally to the Japanese-English al
lance.

the reichrath during the day between
the Jewish Liberals and the anti
Semites. The Liberals called the
anti-Semite leader, DR.. Lueger, a nd

Both sides picked up whatever mis-
siles were handy and hurled them
across the chamber at each other
The riot, which lasted over an hour,

of Lee Turner's quarter house." three
and half miles from this city, where
