DELAREY's CHARGES.

Their Truth.
London. April 9.-Charges made
against the conduct OF British troops
in South Africa. attributed to General
Delarey. have not been brought to the
notice OF war Office and will be ignored
unless question on the subject is asked
In the house OF commons.
Even in this event II is not proba.
BILE any action will be taken unless
some responsible authority formulates
charges in a more definite form.
II is pointed out that II Delarey had
wished TO make such allegations he
had ample opportunity TO communicate
them to Kitchener. who. Il is believed
at war Office. would have notified the
home government OF the fact which
he has not done. War Office officials
ridicule the idea that the charges con
tain one iota OF truth and are inclined
to assign their origin TO purely cont.
mental sources.
The allegations have certainly not
created a ripple OF interest In war OF.
fice circles and even pro-Boers press
members OF the house OF commons ana
others appears 10 attach small import
ance 20 the matter General Delarey's
courteous treatment OF General Me
thuen, Il Is asserted. makes Il difficult
90 believe the Boer commandment Is per
sonally responsible for the charges.
which include persecution OF Delarey's
own family.

OFFICIAL CHANGES.
Said That Secretary Hitchcock Will
Resign From Cabinet.

Several important changes in adminiStra-
ton circles it is understood are slated for
the near future. The resignation of Secre-
tary Long will be followed. 1t is understood
by the resignation of Secretary Hitchcock
of the Interior Department.
For some time, 1t is said, this latter
change has been contemplated. The Secre-
tary has made himself persona non grata
with number Of senators, and it is definitely
known that the President has received nu-
merous protests from men high in the
concilS of the party because of the treat
ment received from the head of the Interior
Department
When Secretary Hitchcock came to Wash
ingtOn from st. Petersburg it was under
stood from those who knew conditions that
it was part Of plan outlined by the late
President after his first election.
Secretary Hitchcock had been prominent
in the collection Of campaign funds and
was one of the largest subscribers himself
to the campaign of 1896. He was then, as
now, interested in the manufacture of plate
glass. The advent of the democratic party
had put this article upon the free list and
his business had been practically ruined.
To elect Mckinley and put protective
tariff on plate glass would mean the re-
habillition Of his business, and it will be
recalled that plate glass was one of the
first things taken care of when the new
bill was drafted.
1t was known some time before Mr. Bliss
retired from the cabinet that Mr.. Hitch
cock would be recalled from st. Petersburg
and placed in the cabinet at the head of
the Interior Department. Since that time
he has served as the official head of the
Department of the Interior.
1t is now known that the time for divorc-
ing Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow from the government service will
not take place until after the trials in Cuba
1atn I{c1 =,
earthing Of the frauds would seem to die
tate. 1T is said, that he be permitted to re-
main until after the postal thieves in Cuba
have been tried and sentenced.

SMALL ARMS PRACTICE.
General Order to Increase Efficiency of
the Armv


Lieut.. Cen Miles, commanding the army
Is having prepared a general order de-
signed to improve the craftsmanship of
United States soldiers. Small arms prac-
tice, which has been practically suspended
since the outbreak of the Spanish war. is
to be resumed SO far practicable and it
is hoped to regain the high standard OF
craftsmanship which resulted from the
former practice and annual competition
among the enlisted men. A special fea-
ture of the order Is that hereafter every
recruit shall be given from thirty to sixty
days training in Workmanship before he
is assigned to active service in the field
The order will apply particularly to fresh
troops destined for service in the Philip
pines, and the practical training conts m
plated will be given at the Preside Of San
Francisco prior to the departure of the
troops.
Col. Jesse NJ. Lee, Both Infantry. was re-
Gently detached from duty at army head
quarters inspector of small arms prac-
tice and ordered to join his regiment in
the Philippines. Gen. Miles is now con-
sidering the selection of his successor He
regards the Office most important one
and desires to secure the best possible
military talent. 1t is expected that the
detail will be made in short time and t
is not improbable that Capt. Robert c. Van
Vliet, 10th Infantry, will be chosen
