Report of Senate Committee Will Be
Compron1ise-May Re-EnIist.

Compromise-May Re-EnIist.
Washington, July 9. = The report
upon the Brownsville investigation by
the senate committee will not be
made until congress convenes in De
cember, but it may bet set down at
this time that it will pave the way for
the discharged cOlOred soldiers to re-
enter the army. Senator Foraker may
be satisfied with the conclusions Of
the majority of the committee that
he will make no minority report.
There are assurances also that Presf'
dent Roosevelt will be satisfied with
this result.
The program as outlined provides:
First-The committee will make no
direct charge in it's report that the
negro soldiers, individually or collec.
lively, shot up the town of Browns
vile, but will let the people draw
their own conclusions from the testi.
mony taken in the case, which will be
printed and made part, of the re-
port.
SecOnd-The committee will recon.
mend the passage of a law by con-
gress which will authorize the dis
charged soldiers to re-enlist without
prejudice" and their army status to
be fixed as it was before they were
dishonorably discharged, providing
each soldier who desires to re-enlist
shall make a statement that he did
not participate in the shooting.

h'CLEARY WILL NEGOTIATE
ASSISTANT POSTMASTER GEN
ERAL GOES TO EUROPE ON
POSTAL BUSINESS.

Washington, July 10. = Postmaster
General Meyer announced yesterday
that the North German Lloyd and
Hamburg American lines had informed
the German postal administration that
on Jan. / next they would terminate
the present agreement relative to the
maintenance of sea postofflces on their
steamers because the compensation
allowed was not deemed sufficient.
The companies, however, have made
an offer of a rate at which they will
continue the service. Mr.. Meyer has
decided to send Second Assistant
Postmaster General McCleary to Ger
many to make new contract.
The German government bears half
the expense and is interested with this
government in continuing the arrange
ment. Sea postoffices are maintained
on vessels of the American White
Star, Hamburg American and North
German Lloyd lines, trips being made
between New York and Germany,
New York and Southampton and New
York and Liverpool. Recently the post
master general stated that he intend
ed, if possible, to establish the sea
postoffices on the steamers of the Gu
nard line plying between Liverpool,
Queenstown and New York, and also
on the steamers of the French line.
"Such sea postofices," he said, ma
terially aid the New York postoffice
in handling mail brought over by the
steamers and greatly facilitate its de-
livery to addresses in that city and ex-
pedite the forwarding of such of it as
is intended for other postoffices in the
United States. Mr.. McCleary will sail
on the Baltic July II and will also
hold conferences with the French and
English postal authorities"

New York, July 10. - Acting on
petition filed by Attorney General
William S. Jackson, Justice William
A. Platzk, in the supreme court, yes
terday appointed R. Burnham Moffat,
an attorney, to take evidence based
upon the attorney generals allega-
tons that the Postal Cable and Tele-
graph company and the Western

ed an illegal combination to increase

uary and is a monopoly in restraint of

ence Mackey, George ]. Gould, E. H.
Hartman, Morris +. Jessup and other

money to produce records, books, ETC.,

Tear Orchards Story to Tatters.

Boise, Idaho, July Max Malich,
Joe Mehelick and Billy Altman, three
of the men variously implicated in al
legged misconduct at Globeville, Den
yer and Cripple Creek, on the work OF
Harry Orchard, went on the stand
yesterday as witnesses for William ID.
Haywood and made denial of Or
chard's testimony.
Malich swore that Orchard and
not he, suggested the plot of dynamit-
ing a boarding house full of non-uaion
men at GlobevilIe, and that Orchard
originated the idea of killing William
Mcdonald, one of Malich's business
rivals.
Not "Pettibone Dope"
He said that he had been burned by
some mysterious acid thrown into his
house by an unknown hand, but denied
that this acid was really '''Pettibone
dope" that had been left in his room
by Steve and Annie Adams. He also
denied that "Pettibone dope" had been
used in burning his store and said that
he was at his ranch when the lire oc-
Cured. He also swore that Orchard
had told him that but for Gov. Steu-
nenberg he would be rich and that he
intended to kill Steunenberg.
Deny Orchards Story.
Mehelich and Altman, who followed
Malich, also made circumstantial de-
NAL of all the things that Orchard
swore they did with him. The cross
examination of all three witnesses
showed a purpose on the part of the
state further to deal with their testi-
mony when the case in rebuttal is
reached.
Eugene Engles, formerly attorney
general of Colorado, AYERS that Or
chard told of loss of rich share in
the Hercules mine, and of his inten-
ton to kill Steunenberg. Engles told
at great length how the military au-
thorities at Cripple Creek detied the
processes of the civil courts.

DeposjtIcns Read to Jury.


Boise. Idaho, July 10. = Part of the
San Francisco dispositions dealing
with the Bradley explosion were read
yesterday to the jurymen that are try
ing Haywood for the murder of Frank
Steunenberg and the rest Of them
will be presented to-day. The reading
began directly after the court sat,
with Clarence barrow and Senator
Borah alternating for their respective
sides. The dispositions have an i'm.
portant bearing upon the case, but
they contained no interest for the
crowd, and the attendance was the
lightest since the trial began.
Both sides seemed to be satisfied
with the showing made by the depo-
sitions and their contents will proba-
bly, furnish much material for directly
opposed contention when the trial
reaches the argument stage. One OBJ
lection from the state constituted the
sole interruption for the day, and dur
ing all the rest of the time counsel for
both sides seemed united in getting
all the matter in the sworn state
ments before the jury.

TRIAL OF HAYWOOD
For Murder of Gov. Steunenberg.

Law and bring the case to as speedy
close as possible. Counsel for the de-
tense and for the prosecution, after
the adjournment yesterday afternoon
were willing to admit the possibility
of a verdict or disagreement in two
weeks.
Discredit Orchard.
The five witnesses on the stand yes
terday morning added support to
those who have preceded them. They
were called to testify concerning con-
ditions existing in Colorado during
the the disturbances at Cripple Creek
and to show that there was no reason
to call out the militia. Orchard was
further discredited by Owen Barnes,
a miner, who lived near the lndepend-
ence mine, and who Orchard said as
sisted him in the manufacture OF
bombs. Barnes said he knew Orchard,
Adams, Easterly and others, but flat
ly denied that he ever planned or dis
cussed any criminal expedition with
Orchard.

NO FOUNDATION

JAPAN is TOO WISE TO PICK A

PEACE PRoPAGANDisTs FEAR RE-
SUIT OF SENDING FLEET TO
PACIFIC.

WASHINGTON. July 10.-Developments
in Washington and elsewhere, as dis
closed by official expressions here and
dispatches from other important
sources fail to indicate that there is
any sound foundation for talk of war
between the United States and Japan,
but interesting sidelights on past dis
cussions were thrown from many di-
rections
Congressman John A. T. Hull of
Iowa, chairman of the house commit
tee on military affairs, in an interview
at Des r,Toines, said:
Neither Japan nor the United
States wants war at this time There
is a big element in Japan who would
welcome war, but the ruling classes
are too wise to pick a quarrel with the
United States.
If there is war we will at first lose
the Philippines and Hawaiian islands,
but we would triumph in the end, for
the United States would build war
ships and fight out victory.
eve are the only nation which can
conduct war and get rich at the
same time"
View With Alarm.
The executive committee Of the
Universal Peace union at a meeting in
Philadelphia yesterday placed itself on
record as opposed to sending a fleet of
warships to the Pacific ocean. Reso-
lutions were adopted declaring that
the sending of feet to the Pacific is
unwise, inopportune and irritating,
and appealing to the president to with
hold any such demonstration.
At Boston the Anti-Imperliaist
league adopted resolutions appealing
for action against "the continued and
indefinite retention of the Philippine
islands,
Fortify the Islands.
There is to be no delay on the part
of the war department in utilizing the
appropriations made at the last ses-
sion of congress for fortifying the
American dependencies in the Pacific
ocean. In order that the keys to these
possessions may be put in condition
for defense as rapidly as possible, the
department is arranging for the trans
portation of ordnance material pur-
chased for American coasts to Hawaii
and the Philippines, and will replace it
at once with funds which became
available on July 1.
