Gen. Wood Reports in Regard to Our
Soldiers Killing Moro Women in
the Recent Battle.

Washington, d. CA cablegram
from Gen. Wood regarding criti-
cisms of the recent battle of Mount
Dajo on the island of Jolo, together
with correspondence between the
president and Secretary Taft on the
subject, were made public Wednes-
day. Gen. Woods cablegram was in
answer to one sent to him at the di-
rection of Secretary Taft, who called
attention to the criticisms of "wanton
slaughter of Moros" and asked him to
send all the particulars.
Gen. Woods reply denies that there
was any wanton killing, and says a
considerable number of women and
children were killed in the fight be-
cause they We're actually in the works
when assaulted, that Moro women
wore trousers and that children were
used as shields. The reply was sent
by Secretary Taft to the president
with a note in which the secretary
says that Gen. Woods answer seems
to him to show clearly that the unfor-
tunate loss of life was wholly un-
aYOidable

American Aristocracy.

Let us briefly trace the origin of this
American aristocracy, the most charm
ing the world has ever seen and the
most merciless. Like the masculine
aristocracy of Athenian citizens or the
male patriciate of Rome, says the Lon
don outlook, it rests on basis of servi-
tude. Slaves in the tiled maizetleld, in
the tenth-foor office; slaves in the Chi
cago wheat pit or in the widest purlieu
of Wall street-all day they toll merci-
lessly that their women folk may be
rare and beautiful and girdled with
power. The bachelor of leisure takes
rebellion; sometimes actually rebels
by abstaining from dances or golf or
surf bathing. AS to the origin OF the
Best People we can say little more than
this-that it is urban product. The ter
ritorial aristocracies of the United
States, in which the men played free
part, have vanished or are vanishing.
The country gentry of the southern
states are no more. The civil war killed
the branches of that tree of almost
English life, the carpet baggers cut
down the trunk. the industrialism of
the New South" destroyed its deep
set root. Southern women of high
lineage still honor and obey their
husbands, and for that reason cannot
climb to social pre-eminence in the
great cities of the Atlantic seaboard,
which, indeed, they avoid Willingly
enough. There a good southern name
has its value-as a peg for colonial
memories in the new aristocrats rea-
soned catalogue of ancestors. There
are still country homes in New Eng
land, but nine in ten are in the pos
session of the urban aristocracy, who
do not live there as the original own
ers lived. The country life of the
United States is gone or is going in
all its phases-more' the pity! 1t is
true that the best people of the great
cities live the simple life (at great
cost in country places for a portion
Adirondacks, in California. in the
Thousand Islands of the st. Lawrence,
where they have built weird parodies
of Fifth avenue palaces. But all
this is the meTest pretense of country
living. They are an urban aristocracy.
Nevertheless they will not attain a
complete urbanity-for all that we
have praised their beauty, authority
and distinction-until the married
man catches up with the bachelor aid
the twain insist on being treated IS
the equals of the women folk they
worship not wisely but too well. Till
then these fair aristocrats are merci-
less and remorseless-by proxy.

Vegetarian Victory.

1t looks as if the consumers had
won something very like a victory in
their contest with the beef trust. For
the members of the great organization
are inclined to be "tetchy." as they
see they are the victims of a com
bine." 1t all came about, observes the
Boston Transcript, because one man
has found that if he ate beef only
once instead of three times a day his
rheumatism was less troublesome, and
another man there learned after three
or four months trial that, with meat
figuring less often than formerly on
the breakfast table. the bills sent in
by his provisioner and his family ply
sician were smaller than ever before.
So even if in the beginning there
were thoughts among beef consumers
of plotting revenge for the packers
such intentions have disappeared The
changed diet has led to changed and
more desirable condition of bodily
health. and even if porterhouse steak
were now put on the bargain counter
those who have been converted TO
partial yegetarianism would never 20
back to those oL1en menus which call
ed for meat in some form three times
a day.

A MAN OF MANY CRIMES.

Berlin, Germany.-Hennig a mar

Handed Out to Officers
of New York Life Co.
BY Mr.. HAMILTON.
Tie DenOunCeS the COmpany's Trus-
tees as "CurS end TraitOrs"--
Defends His Own Acts.

Albany, n. Y.-Andrew Hamtl-
ton appeared before the insur-
ance investigating committee Thurs
day and broke the silence which he
has maintained, except for his state
ment brought from Paris by John c.
Mccall, ever since his name was first
mentioned in the investigation in con-
nection with the great sums of money
paid to him during the past ten years
on account of his legal and legislative
work for the New York Life and other
insurance companies.
1t would be difficult to eXaggerate
the sensation produced by his uneX-
pected appearance and by the speech
which he made, or the intensely dra-
matte character of the whole episode.
His face flushed and his voice trem-
bling with passion, his arms upraised
and his fists clenched, Judge Hamilton
poured forth a food of denunciation
and invective upon the members of
the board of trustees of the New York
Life Insurance Co., several of whom
were present, designating them as
"curs and traitors" and paying espe-
cial attention to one unnamed, whom
he described as "the Pecksniff of three
administrations, the contdant of the
Beers scandal and author of the Beers
pension-who rotates through one ad-
ministration and another, and thinks
that he is going to be an indispensable
member of yet another"
"And do you think" he demanded,
that the man who held the same re-
Lott TO N hot 7 Il
Mccall could sic for the 13 years since
and not know how the expenditures
that were made were to be, and were
disbursed? Yet he and such like him
sit, not Judging me as peers, but judg-
ing me as conquerors, talking about
yellow dogs"
Judge HamiltOn's attack upon the
trustees of the New York Life was
made more dramatic by the fact that
he Immediately followed j. H. Nc
Intosh general solicitor of that com
pany, who had been eulogizing the
members of that board, and chaIleng-
ing any man to give reasons why they
should be removed from office as CON
templated by the pending Legislation.
He declared that every payment to
himself by the New York Life was
made with the knowledge and ap-
proval of the trustees, especially of
the finance and auditing committees.
He declared that the payments were
proper and legitimate and that he had
no apology to make for himself or for
President Mccall.
One of his most interesting state
ments was that in spite of reports to
the contrary, the so-called paris ac-
count was actually reported and ap-
proved by the auditing committee.
He said the bill should be passed
which would sweep out of office the
present boards of control of the com
panies. His speech was frequently
and warmly applauded.

Steamship British King
Sank During a Storm.
27 MEN DROWNED.
Thirteen of the Crew We're Rescued
by The Steamer BOStOnian and
II by the Mannheim.

Boston, Mass.-Suffering, mental
and physical, and numerous acts of
heroism in saving life rarely equalled
in the record of tragedies of the sea
attended the loss of the Phoenix line
steamer British King, which on Sun
day last, in a raging Atlantic storm,
foundered about $50 miles south of
Sable Island and carried to death 81
members of the crew. Thirteen men
were rescued from the sinking vessel
by the Leyland line steamer Bos-
tonian, bound from Manchester to
Boston, and II by the German tank
steamer Mannheim, from Rotterdam
for New York.
Five others who had been drawn
down in the vortex into which the
British King was engulfed, were
picked up by the Bostonian from a
frail bit of wreckage which they had
grasped after desperate struggle for
life in the whirlpool. The Bostonian
arrived here Wednesday and the de-
tails of the disaster became known.
Capt. James OHagan, of the British
King, died on board the Bostonian
from the effects of injuries sustained
in trying to save his ship.
Two lifeboats from the Bostonian
was crushed to fragments and the
volunteer crews which manned them
were thrown into the sea while en-
gagged in the work of rescue, but all
were safely landed on board the
steamer.
A second attempt to reach the sink
ing ship was successful and 13 men,
including Capt. O'Hagan, were taken
from the British King to the Bos-
tonian. Then again a powerful billow
carried the lifeboat against the side
of the ship and destroyed it, and the
life savers were thrown into the sea,
to be rescued only after an hours
effort by their comrades.
Volunteers from the Mannheim af-
ter heroic battle with the waves, had
taken off II from the British King,
but after this neither of the steamers,
in consequence of the increasing gale,
could reach the laundering freighter.
