FORT RILEY MANGUVRES END.
The Last Exercises a Surprise-Commands

Fort Riley Kan, Oct. So.-The series Of nanoeu-
vres at Fort Riley ended in a problem unique in
fits character. and which constituted a surprise
in more senses than The problem, ortgi
nally given out, seemed to be a prosaic ex
ercise in the formation of outpost. The Blue

at the milk ranch at the north end OF the reser

observe and report upon the establishment of the
outpost and the changes in its position at dusk and
at dawn. This apparently constituted the entire
problem. and many of the military observers,
thinking that the last exercises were TO be
drill, departed from Fort Riley in the day. Late
last night. however, messenger was dispatched
by the chief umpire to Colonel Augur with infor-
nation supposed to have been received from a spy
relative 10 the situation Of the Brown forces, and
with orders for him TO make a night march and
be in position to attack the Browns at the first.
break of day.
The Blue commander at once summoned his
subordinate commanders and announced TO them
his plans At a. m. General Bates and his staff
left headquarters and rode to the Blue camp. A
heavy attack made against the Brown right,
and the Blue line extended further to the right
by the battalion of engineers and the 10th Cavalry.
When the forces had approached within close
proximity of each other the engagement was ter
minated by the chief umpire Owing to the delay
in the deployment of the Blue line the plan of the
morning had failed. The command marched back

and saturated condition.

Found Not Guilty of Cruelty to Filipino
Prisoners

washington. Oct 30.-The War Department to-
day made public the report and findings in the case
OF Major Robert I. Howe. charged with cruelty
IN the philippines. The findings of the board
exonerate Major Howe. who then lieuten-n
colonel commanding the district where the alleged
crueites took place. This part OF the findings is
approved by the War Department. The second
part Of the findings declared that although Major
Hunter who made the first investigation of the
case, was unfriendly to Major Howe. the in
vesugation was fair and impartial far as it ex-
tended The department disapproves this portion Of
the findings 'as contradictory in terms and not
warranted by the testimony ELECTED by the board
during the progress of it's investigation"
The case was the subject Of exhaustive tnvestiga-
ton and report some months ago. and on account
or the conflicting testimony Secretary Root con-
yened a board, consisting of Brigadier General
Francis Moore. Colonel Samuel r Whitan and
Colonel Frederick K. Ward. This board met at

Make EXCHANGE.
Suggestion for England to GiUe the
Bohamas for Skag1cay and Dyea.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Something must be done to console Can
ada over her disappointment in the Alaska arbi-
tration. The natural thing to do is to give Sir
Wilfrid Laurier the Bahamas to exchange for
territory he desires in Alaska. Engishmen had
much better leave the bargaining to Canadians.
Americans and Canadians have the local knowl-
edge as to what is really valuable. The Eng
fish have not. So the Americans bargain against
their Ignorance. 1t is good crying over spilled
milk. 1t is better to the spilled milk as evil
dence Of the perfect friendliness with which We
entered upon the late arbitration. Now We can
say to President Roosevelt, who has over and
over again shown his good feeling to US: You
see how sporting we have been. But 1t has
created very bad feeling in Canada. So Eng
land must pay the piper by giving up some OF
her possessions in exchange for the part or
Alaska which Canadians think necessary TO
their development. We have handed over the
Bahamas to Sir wilfrid Laurier for this pur-
pose. You know their advantages. Strategcally
they belong to America. They have the climate
of Florida without the malaria. and they contain
spot of immense value to American sentiment
where Christopher Columbus first landed on
American soil. In other words they contain the
Mecca Of America"
When this exchange is concluded all parties
will be pleased, even the inhabitants of the
Bahamas, who will enjoy the advantages OF
being fscally part of the United States, upon
whom most of the intercourse of this favorlte
American winter resort depends.
