p1soRDERLY 18TH INFANTRY.
Colored Troops Get Into More Trouble
in Texas.

Ell PASO, Texas, November 3.-Negro
soldiers of the 18th Infantry, at Fort Bliss,
five miles from here. fought in a saloon out
side the reservation last night.
Private Matthews was killed and Private
Lewis and Alexander Johnson, a saloon
keeper were wounded. Other troops from
the fort have been dispatched to arrest the
men.
Advices concerning the origin of the trou-
BILE are conflicting, but card game is said
to have caused the affair. 1t Is said that
Johnson cannot recover.
1t is said at the War Department that no
information has been received there re-
garding the alleged outbreak among SOL
diers of the 25th Infantry, colored reg;-
ment station at Fort Bliss, at Ell Paso,
Tex, as the result of which 1t is said one
soldier was killed and another soldier and
a saloon keeper were wounded The fracas
is said to have occurred in a saloon outside
of the reservation.
There are four companies of the 2oth In
fantry at Fort Bliss, but none Of the SOL
diers was with the battalion of the same

NO PENALTY FOR oFFENSE.
Officials Reticent Regarding the AL.
legged Japanese Spy at Manila.

In the absence of definite information on
the subject, the officials of the War and
State Departments do not feel jus lifted in
making any comments in regard to the re-
port from Manila that Japanese captain
of engineers, in disguise. had been caught
in the act of sketching the fortified tons
in the vicinity of Manila. 1t was stated
at the War Department. however. that even
If the report is true, there is nothing that
the federal government can do in the mat
ter beyond demanding the withdrawal of
the officer from United States territory No
penalty for such breach of international
courtesy is provided for by the United
States statutes, which, in fact contain no
reference to such occurrences.
There have been similar affairs in the
past in other countries. and the only action
taken was the withdrawal of the offending
officers. 1t is recognized as part of the
regular duties of officers of the army and
navy attached to the various embassies
and legations to procure all the information
obtainabe In regard to the latest inventions
and improvements in the art Of war, but,
at the same time, these officers are to
avoid any act in that connection that might
give oHense to the governments to which
they are accredited. Several years ago the
United States government, through its mill
tary representative at Paris was said to be
implicated in a scandal in regard to the
misuse of military information at that cap
ital, and. although Major Henry d. Borup
OF the ordnance department, the officer in
question, was eXonerated from blame It.
was deemed advisable to recall him to the
United States. He is now on the retirtd
list.
The japanese secret service and military
intelligence department is recognized as
probably the best in the world and no sur
prise is expressed at the alleged efforts
made to master the details of the defensive
works of the United States most vulnerab Bile
possession, especially In view of the anti
japanese agitation in California.
There is no doubt that the Japanese gov
eminent will disavow the alleged action of
Its military representative in Manila and If
the offense actually occurred, will express
Its regret and promptly comply with the
request for the officers withdrawal from
the Philippines

The demand for new rails does not come
so much for new railroad construction a
1t does for renewals and for relayiny
track with heavier steel. The business of
the railroads has increased so enormously
that the old light rails are Inadequate TO
carry the train loads and the heavy eouip
ment and heavy power of today
The railroads of the south are among the
heaviest buyers of steel rails for 1907 and
it IS stated that the demand in that section
indicates the wonderful growth OF the south
and the increased demand which is being
made on the transportation companies.

ments of Maj. Grierson. Col. Rogers

creek, that for two nights and one day the

Johnson were secreted in the hills eight
miles north OF Moorehead,- the colored
troops being in fear Of their lives.
No Fire OF Lights.
No fire or lights were permitted during
this time. and the horses and mules were
escorted to water only under cover Of dark
ness. They remained there until the ar
rival Of Col. Rogers and the 9Th. when their
forces were deemed sufficiently strong to
combat the Indian camp nearby In case of
attack. The hurried trip of the 9th from
Fort Meade established a record in the
movement of such bodies. 145 miles being
