Presi- dent desires this considered in con ference with Wright and to have as surance that every honorable peace ful remedy has been exhausted.

 Gen. Chaffee responded to the last cablegram by the dispatch given out at the White House, Tuesday night, and published Wednesday morning, stating that to withdraw all the American forces would ruin our pres tige; to withdraw part of the forces would be dangerous.
 To this statement the following re- sponse was made:
 "Chaffee, Manila: Your cable of yesterday has been submitted by acting secretary of war to the presi- dent, who directs that you keep in mind the presidents orders, but of course do nothing that will impair our prestige CT in any way imperial the army. If, after the expiration of the time named in your proclamation, and after all possible diplomatic and friendly methods have been ex- hausted, your demand for the Moro murderers have not been met, you will act upon the lines that i'll your judgment will best serve to bring peace and order in the island of Min donao.

Gen. Chaffee Permitted to Proceed With His Campaign Against
 the Moross
IS EXPECTED TO EXHAUST DIPLOMACY.
The President, However, Convinced That 1t Would Not be Policy to Belittle American Prestige In the Eyes of the Natives of Min danaO.

Washington, April 24.-The war de- partment has made public the tele- graphic correspondence which has taken place up to date respecting the Moro outbreak in Mindanao The im- portant feature of the correspondence is the closing chapter showing that Gen. Davis expedition is not arbi- trarily stopped, but that Gen. Chaffee IS allowed to exercise his discretion. 1t IS believed that the presence of Gov. Taft in Washington is the ex- planation of the presidents direction that Gen. Chaffee shall confer with the acting head of the Philippines commission before adopting hostile tactics.
 The correspondence begins with the cablegram given out last week dated Manila, April 15, in which Gen. Chaffee recites the killing of the first American soldier, near Mala- bang, and the forming of an expedi- tion under Baldwin to arrest the mur- derers.
 In answer to this the following dis PdtCn WdS SelI.
 Washington, D. C., April 20, 1902. -Chaffee, Manila: Expedition ordered under Baldwin will not leave coast until you hear from here. This will not, however, interfere with com plete preparation.
 [Signed1 'CORBIN.''
 On April 22 the following cablegram was sent Gen. Chaffee:
 "Chaffee, Manila.-The president is anxious that no expedition be made against Moros until all eff forts by negotiations have been exhausted. To this end he de- sires that you confer freely with the acting civil governor. In the event the force has to be sent, he directs that it go under the immediate com mand of Gen. Davis. The president will give you all support, but desires exercise of great care and prudence. If possible avoid by all honorable means general war.

Shad for the Delaware.

The poor run of shad in the Delaware
river during the past season has been
brought to the attention of the United
States fish commission.
Measures are being taken to stock the
stream so as to prevent an occurrence similar
to that of this year.
Millions of young shad are to be dis
tributed along the stream from Camden to
the Delaware Water Gap, in an endeavor
to restore shad fishing to its former posi-
ton.
Last Saturday, Isaac Reith Reeves of
Garthersburg, Nd, member of the United
States fish commission placed 1000, 900
young shad in the Delaware above Schud-
der's Falls, near Trenton. The fish are
raised in the aquarium at Washington and
were shipped there in fifteen large tanks.
This is the first time in eight years the
river has been re-stoked with shad. 1t has
been the custom to emigrate the young fish
to the Delaware every four years.
This action was prevented in 1898 be-
cause of the Spanish-American war, which
reduced the appropriation of the COM
mission, so that little or no attention was
paid to raising fish to re-stock streams.
Last year an extra appropriation was made,
but it appears that 1t needed protest from
the Jersey fishermen before the authorities
at Washington decided to act.
Because of the failure to replenish the
river with young shad in 1898 the fishing
during the past season was the poorest in
thirty years.
Ordinarily, during good fishing season,
fifteen or sixteen hauls are made daily,
while this spring four or five hauls consti-
tuted days work.
As a result of this scarcity prices flew
skyward and shad for a couple of months
were having neck to neck race with the
meat trust.
An interesting occurrence growing out of
Mr.. Reeves visit is that the fish car, which
is used by the United States fish commits
sion to transport its fish about the country,
is lying on railroad siding near Glouces-
ter, because of lack of funds for the COM
mission to 60 too deeply into the fish rails
ing business.

Where is Enoch Nickel ?

The Chief of Police of Salem has received
a letter from Edwin B. Pugh, Esq, of
indianapolis, Indiana, stating that in the
settlement of an estate Mr.. Pugh finds
there is money due a relative of one Enoch
Nickel, farmer who lived in New Jersey
some thirty or forty years ago, and believed
to have resided in this county. Said Enoch
Nickel had sister named Rachel Heron,
who died in Ireland some fifty years ago,
and the estate now being settled is the
estate of daughter of said Rachel Her
ron, who died few weeks ago. Said
daughter being the niece of Enoch Nickel,
it becomes necessary to locate Enoch Nickel
or some other member of his family.
