which they proceeded to kill and eat.
Crockett eventually delivered his brave
command through to the coast without
losing single man except those killed
in the fight. Although the expedition
ended several months ago, Captain
Crockett has not fully recovered from
his wounds He is considered one of
the most dauntless men that ever serv-
ed in the Philippines and has been Civ
en- medal for his bravery.
Lieutenant Edward Y. Miller is an
other American who has won renoWn
in the Philippine service. Miller is gov
ernor Of the province of Paragua, the
most isolated portion of the Philippine
archipelago. He, too, has successfully
led native troops against the renegades.
He is the governor Of a zone contain
ing 200 small islands, the total land
area of which is 5000 square miles. In
this province there are $4,000 savages.
who speak ten different languages, yet
the total white population consists of
only thirteen Americans.
These exiles are Governor Miller and
his secretary, two onstabulary officers,
three schoolteachers, one customs in
spector and three discharged soldiers
who have embarked in the lumber bust
ness. The only white women in the
province are the wives Of the governor
and the customs inspector. These two
ladies live $50 miles apart. Governor
Miller's capital is a hundred miles from
II tie nearest port Of any other province
in the Philippines and is 275 miles from
Manila. Although the Millers have been
in Paragua three years, they have new
er had a white visitor. The people Of
their islands know almost nothing
about the ways Of civilization, because
the Spaniards made no attempt to oc-
cupy this portion Of the archipelago
when they were in possession there.
The outlaws of the Philippines, called
ladrones or bandoleros, are a constant
menace to that part of the native pop
ulation which would engage in peace
full pursuits. The outlaws demand trib-
ute from community, and if this is
not forthcoming they swoop down up
on it to murder, loot and burn.
It is said that one of the noted ban
dolero chiefs who is now causing
great deal Of trouble in one of the
southern provinces was formerly an
independent farmer who turned bandit
because the local hemp buyer, who was
a cacique, continually cheated him out
Of the fruits Of his toll This farmer
would carry his little crop on his back
over mountain trails for miles, only to
receive a few cents for it, when in real
ity it was worth as many dollars. If
he tried to sell to any one but the boss
he was punished AS a consequence Of
such treatment he gave up trying to
make peaceful living and on more
than one occasion has visited terrible
vengeance for his wrongs.
The poor countryman has no concep-
ton Of the idea Of liberty Of personal
privilege. He is a slave and chattel in
many respects. If he dares to rebel

THE OUTLAWS WE'RE FINALLY REPULSED.
man is from Virginia and comes well
by his fighting spirit, being a descend
ant of Dayy Crockett Of Alamo fame.
He came to the Philippines as a wagon
master in General LawtoL's division.
He has performed valiant service in
a number of expeditions against the
outlaws. On the last of these he was
absent eleven months, during which
time he 'hiked'' 1000 miles through
the tangled Businesses of Samar, the
unruly island which the Spaniards new
er conquered and which the Americans
have not wholly succeeded in pacify-
ing. About half of these Samarites are
fanatical desperadoes, and the question
of their subsection is one of the prob
lens which confront the administra-
ton.
Young Crockett was sent into the
country with small detachment Of
constabulary to penetrate district in
fected with hostiles. There are no
roads in Samar, and when the troops
are sent after these bandits the warn
ing is spread by means Of sentries who
blow conch horns from the hilltops.
By this means of signaling the news of
the approach of an enemy the alarm Is
echoed over the valleys for hundreds of
miles in a few hours time,
Crockett and his men soon found
themselves in a deserted country, but
they held pluckily to the trail The
young American and his faithful ma
tive soldiers suffered every conceivable
hardship. They waded in mud TO their
waists, were thrown into streams by
capsized boats and marched many Wea-
ry days and weeks with wet feet. AS q
consequence half of the command were
soon i'll from fever and rheumatism.
Only on three occasions were they able
to corner the outlaws and force the
fight. Once when the company was
separated a force of 200 ladrones were
surprised by squad of thirteen Of the
constabulary. By the time Crockett,
with only sixteen men, arrived to re-
enforce them eight Of the original thir-
| teen had been killed.
The fighting which took place on this
occasion was of the most desperate
character. The American was in the
heart of the jungle, miles from the
nearest army post, his support consist
ing of only small, worn out, bedrag-
gled force of Filipino soldiers. Yet the
outlaws were finally repulsed, leaving
seventy three of their number dead on
| the field. Crockett did not lose a single
man Of his squad Of sixteen reinforce
ments who had saved the situation.
That the plucky Virginian was in the
thick Of the fight is shown by the fact
that he was shot and cut four times
and grazed twice. He himself killed
eleven of his antagonists. If he had
! fallen during the fight his men would
have been annihilated.
Their greatest hardships came later.
There was no doctor to treat their
wounds, which they had to sew up with
hemp. Before they could reach the
coast their rations gave out, and for
fifteen days they suffered terribly from
the fortunes Of starvation. At first they
tried to get along by eating roots and
bark and by making salt from sea wa
ter. Bats, hawks and lizards soon be

mission at Baringo. on returning to
England brought with him vast
amount of material in support of the
charges against the administration
Mr.. Harris states that several of the
officials known to be implicated are
boiling from the Kongo-with the sus--
pected cOnnivance of the government
and in an interview he told the tragic
but typical story Of one affair which
occupied the commission appointed to
inquire into the matter for some time
namely, the expedition conducted by
NJ. Hannotte, the agent of the Abr
company, against Samb-ekota and the
arming of the Abr sentries with Al
bini rifles.
Writing to the secretary Of the COM
mission, Mr.. Harris reprints, with cor
roborative remarks Of his own, the
following story Of reliable native eye
witness:
II went with M. Hannotte when he
made the raid on Ekota. / accompa-
MED him as poddler and then as a
carrier inland. We anchored at the
Samba beach and slept the first night
at Samba itself. Next morning we
started. We were armed with guns,
and the Samba people accompanying
us bore spears, shields and bows and
arrows in order to assist. Toward
evening we settled down in the forest
for the night. Next day we surprised
the Ekota people,
.'We met two boys at the entrance
Of the town. These were killed, but
M Hannotte gave orders to kill only
grown men in future. The fighters
went in every direction and killed very
many. At one place we saw foot
lying on the ground, and NJ. Hannotte
said, Throw it away
"Further on we saw murdered wo-
man. NJ Hannotte ordered her corpse
to be thrown into the BUSH / saw at
least five cOrpSes, but many people
were killed that l did not notice at the
time.
IN. Hannotte himself saw many of
the corpses. The dead bodies were cut
up and eaten by the Samba people
and others, with M Hannotte's knoWl-
edge.
7 Mr.. Harris says:
1.-THE Chief Nsumbo Ngengi came and
made peace, agreeing in future to bring
rubber. At the time Of the visit to the
commission of inquiry M. Hannotte
was returning from Europe to the Kon-
go. The commission of inquiry met
him further down river and interrogat-
ed him with reference to the malad-
ministration for which he was held re-
sponsible.
HE replied to the commission, the
secretary Of which sent me a copy Of
his dispositions, saying:

SZAPARY, FORMER
PREMIER OFHUNGARY, DEAD

Budapest, Jan. 21.-Count Julius Szap-
ary, former Premier of Hungary and at
one time president Of the Hungarian dele
CATION, died today at Abbazia, Austria
Count julius Szapary was seventy-three
years old. He belonged to an old family Of
mobiles who did great services during the
struggle with the Turks, and who have al
ways held high offices in the church, the
army and the civil administration. Count
Szapary joined the Deak party at the
time of the first compromise between
Hungary and Austria, and was a member
of the Grand Commission Of 1867 by which
the details OIL the settlement were worked
out.
He was shortly afterward appointed I'm
der Secretary in the Ministry of Public
Works, and from 1878 to 1875 was Minis
ter # the Interior in the Szlavy adminis-
tration. He was Minister Of Finance from
1878 to 1857. and it was during his tenure
of Office that the first Hungarian CONVEX
sion was carried out, but the methods
employed were so costly and the scheme
so badly executed that Count Szapary re-
mains on record as the worst Finance
Minister ever known in either Hungary
or Austria. He was, however, an honest,
hard-working and well-meaning man,
with limlted vision, and exceedingly sub
ject tok external influences.
