State, and his chronicles of "Mr
Beeswax" were read with avidity by
all. His death is a distinct loss to

ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS
Regarding Philippine Affairs Sent
to the Senate By Presi-
dent Mckinley.

In further response to the senate
resolution of January 18th last, the
president Wednesday sent to the sem
ate additional documents bearing upon
the instruction in the Philippines.
The papers are all important. One
OF them is the report of Colonel Armas
BIanco, of the Philippine army, to the
general commanding the second
zone" of the events of February 2,
1899, in Tondo. He says that on hear
ing the alarm of fire he Immediately
ordered twenty men who gathered to
hold themselves ready, $50 that when
the designated hour arrived they would
be ready to go to Meisic, where the
American barracks are and set on fire
the houses about there in order to in
terfere with their coming out from the
barracks, as was agreed upon in the
meeting with d. Rosend Limon.
The result was that on marching to
the scene of operations we found the
Calzada of Azcarraga was filled with
the Americans and with them were q
number of country people who cried
out, brothers, to the strife, for now is
the hour This is what men were
saying to that crowd, and at the proper
time the call of our army advance and
fire." The sight of that strange scene
threw us into confusion, for we be-
lieved all that we had prepared from
the beginning as we'll as what we saw
was prepared by the enemy and his
spies" He then ordered retreat and
when they net the Americans the col

jury Declared Slayer of Scott and
Demaree Not GuiIty--Ova-
ton In Court Room.

Ex-Cougressman David J. Colson,
who was tried at Frankfort, KY, for
the murder of Lieutenant Ethelbert
Scott and Luther w. Demaree, was
acquitted at 6:35 o'clock Saturday
evening. The trial lasted four days.
The Jury was out only eighteen min
utes. There was silence as the jury
fled into the court, and the court
clerk, Ford, read the verdict.
AS the last words were read, the
crowd arose and sent up a wild cheer.
Colonel Colson, the defendant, was
standing near the witness chair. The
crowd took no notice of the court Off
GERS, whe pounded vigorously for or
der, but piled over the ratings sur
rounding Colson and insisted on
shaking hands with him. They gave
an ovation to the jury and Colonel
James Andrews, Co!son's chief coun-
sci. The cheering was kept up till
Colonel Colson left the court room,
and as he did so, it was taken up by
the Beckham soldiers in front of the
court house, to which the colonel very
very gracefully returned the salute.
Colson received messages from all
over the state congratulating him on
his acquittal. The tragedy which re-
suited in Colson's trial was a duel
with Lieutenant Ethelbert F. Scott in
the lobby of the Capital hotel in
Frankfort, in which Colson killed his
antagonist, Scott, and Luther W. De-
maree and Charles Julian, bystanders,
and wounded Captain B. B. Golden.
Both Scott and Colson emptied their
pistols, fifteen or twenty shots being
fred in all. Scott had seven bullets in
his body; Colson was wounded in the
arm. He received the wound early in
the fight and it was shown that Scott
fred first
Colonel Colson was tried on an in
dictment charging him with the muir
der of Scott. He is also indicted for
killing Demaree, but this will now be
dismissed.

Wedn, sdar the,nndWing lheasage:

Wednt sday the1end wing message:
"Thr time rema4 ling before the
first Of May when the act of April IL,
1900, entitled AN act temporarily to
provide revenue and civil govern
ment for Porto Rico and for other pur-
poses will take effect, appears to be
insufficient for the careful inquiry and
consideration requisite to the proper
selection of suitable persons to fill the
important civil Offices provided for by
the act. The powers of the present
government will cease when the act
takes effect and some new authority
will be necessary to enable the officers
now performing the various duties of
civil government in the island to con-
tinue the performance of those duties
until the officers who are to perform
similar duties under the new govern
ment shall have been appointed and
qualified.
"That authority cannot we'll be
given at present by temporary ap-
polntments of the existing officers to
positions under the act, for the reason
that many of the existing officers are
officers of the army, detailed to the
performance of civil duties, and Sec
ton 1922 of the revised statutes will
prevent them from accepting such tenn
porary appointments, under the pen
atty of losing their commissions. The
selection of the new officers and TIE
organization of the new government
under the new act will be accomplish
ed with all practical speed, but in Or
der that it may be properly accom-
pllshed, recommend the passage of
Joint resolution to obviate the difficult
ty above stated
WILLIAM MCKINLEY"
To carry into effect the presidents
message, Mr.. Foraker, chairman of
the Porto Rican committee, introduced
this resolutions:
"That until the officer to fill any
office provided for by the act of April
II, 1900, entitled IAN act to Temporal
rlly provide revenue and civil govern
ment for Porto Rico and for other
purposes, shall have been appointed
and qualified, the officer or officers
now performing the civil duties per-
tanning to such office may continue to
perform the same under the authority
of said act, end no officer of the army
shall lose his commission by reason
thereof; provided, that nothing herein
contained shall be held to extend The
time OF appointment and qualification
OF such officers beyond the first day of
August, 1900"
On motion of Senator Foraker the
resolution and the presidents message
were referred to the committee on
Porto Rico.
