Native Sergeant tTcstifes Tint Four
Guides Were Killed by Ramos.

Guides Were Killed by Ramos.
MANILA. January. Sat the continual
ton to-day Of the trial by court-martial
Of Major Edwin F. Glenn of the Fifth
Infantry. who is charged with unlawfully
and wilfully killing seven prisoners of
war in Samar last January. Louis Cauli-
field. second lieutenant of Philippine
scouts, who was in command of the de-
tachment which killed the native guides
IN question, testified that while Major
Glenn directed that the guides be execut-
I'd if they failed to lead the columns to
ne enemy, he, Lieutenant Caulf1eld. did
OF repeat Major .Glenn's orders to the
detachment. He said he gave 10 orders
for the killing of the guides himself, and
that their killing did not result from the
orders issued by Major Glenn.
A native sergeant. who accompanied a
detachment under Ramos, testified that
the first four guides had been executed
by order of Ramos. because they failed
to guide the column to the enemy. This
witness said the guides had been given a
chance to lead the column, when Cley r.
fused. to do so they were made to kneel
Ind advised to repent of their SINS. The
sergeant then said that "a native soldier
was stationed behind each kneeling man
md that3a at the word Of command the sol
lier. first dubbed the guides with thet,
rihe-butts. and then bayonetted them.
The witness declared that Lieutenant
Cauliheld was not present at this exc
cution.
The prosecution is endeavoring to CON
meet Major Glenn with the killing of the
guides. by trying to show that Ramos was
present when Major Glenn gave his or.
7iers to Lieutenant Caul;hela The de.
sence denies that Ramos was present on
his occasion.

THE W0EOF AN EDITOR
Declares Suicide, VIII skey
orDivorce Preferable to

YORKVILLE, S. c.. January S.-(Spe-
cial)-In a five-column editorial packed
with woe. ]. S. Drakeford. editor of the
Yoeman. announces that rather than
continue living with his wife three alter
natives are preferable. suicide. whiskey,
or divorce.
He says his respect for God compels
him to re!inquish the idea Of self-destruc-
tion and his respect for himself will
not allow him to find consolation in
strong drink. Wherefore. he will secure
divorce.
The laws of this State do not sanction
this proceeding. so he announces that
the newspaper of which he has been edi-
tor for ten years, will suspend publica :
ton to enable him to go where he can
obtain the relief which the statutes of
South Carolina deny him. He AYERS he
has been driven to this course by the
tongue Of SANDER and his domestic In
felicity. In justice to his wife, however,
he deems it proper to declare that '.her
chastity is unquestioned." In his extra
ordinary editorial he discusses divorce
laws. marriage, and society. and quotes
much poetry from Sheridan's School
for Scandal
He concludes with the announcement
that he will pay his debts. suspend the
publication of his paper, and betake him.

Again bananas are Elut on the mar
ket Yesterday there were seven cars in
the city. four still loaded on the Southern
tracks, one on the Richmond. Fredericks-
burg and Potomac,i and two cars stored
on the street: averaging seven hundred
punches to the car, the estimated number
Of punches here yesterday would be near
ave thousand.
AS the commission men have no way to
dispose OF this fruit except through the
retailers. and these men will handle lit
lie. even at the very low figures quoted,
the wholesale men stand in way to loose
much unless they can reconsign some of
! this fruit to other markets..
Bananas not frozen and in good condi-
tion were sold on Cary street yesterday
as low as fifteen cents a bunch. The
punches averaging six dozen to the. stalk
sold around is and 20 cents. while those
stalks containing eight dozen or more
bananas sold not higher than so or 40
cents Commission men say that II the
retailers could be induced TO handle good
ripe fruit on smaller margin, this golden
fruit could be sold for five cents a dozen
at profit. and every one would eat ba-
nanas because OF their cheapness. In this
way the wholesale men would be relieved
OF the glut. the retail men would do a
rushing business. and the general public
would have the benefit of the cheap
prices. Shippers. moreover. would feel
more kindly towards this market, be-
cause the losses to them would not then
be SO heavy.
In nearly all other cities. It Is said the
peddlers are used as safety-valve to the
market. and commission men depend
upon them largely to relieve such glut.
Here the high license tax places them
out of the range OF possibility. and the
market suffers as a consequences.
