War Department Cannot Pay for
Trophy if 1t Is Won.

Secretary Of War Taft made public the
following memorandum yesterday for the
guidance of the Chief of Staff based on
a recent opinion by the Attorney Gen
eral Of the United States:
THE Attorney General has overruled
the views Of this department as ex-
pressed in opinions Of the Judge Advocate
General, concurred in by the Secretary
Of War, in holding that the expression
organized militia contained in the act
of Congress Of March >. 1907. making pro
vision for trophies in rife contests, in
cludes the naval militia organized in any
state.
AS the decision Is limited, however.
10 its application TO the question whether
the naval brigades may be authorized to
take part in rifle contest. I prefer TO
defer TO the opinion and follow II, with
out request for further consideration.
This course is taken by the department
with the distinct understanding that such
construction has no other effect I'm re-
spect 10 the status Of the naval militia
than 20 permit the naval brigades 20 take
part in a rifle contest.
Tt cannot authorize the department to
pay for any of the expenses Of the team
from the naval brigade. or 10 furnish its
supplies, or TO do anything except 10
allow it to take part in the contest and
receive the benefit, II it wins. Of the
trophy. which the War Department viii
pay for. WILLIAM H. TAFT,
Secretary Of War"

It's evacuation means that another mas
sacre has occurred there. or is expected.
Just why Europeans have deserted the
city IS not made plain in the official dis
patches. This gives room for all sorts of
conjectures. and generally the matter is
regarded In the worst light possible.
From the wording Of the advices re-
celved officials here are inclined 20 be-
heve all the foreigners got away safely,
although probably forced to leave their
possessions behind. But that a raid and
the looting Of the town followed its evac-
uation is regarded as equally certain.
MogadoT has a large Jewish quarter. and
it IS feared this already has been raided.
probably with a repetition OF the atroci-
ties committed at Casa Blanca, when the
Jewish q'arter there was sacked.
The city is fortified. bat It IS doubtful
whether the native authorities end sol
diers would offer the slightest resistance
10 the Moors, and II the town was raided.
IL is feared there has been serious loss Of
life, as well as much looting.
Advices from the city are eagerly await
ed here. Two war ships have been dis
patched 10 the city, but little hope IS en-
tertained that they can arrive in time TO
prevent outrages.

Insane Copenhagen Police Officer
Almost Precipitates Trouble.
Copenhagen. Aug. 16-The entire police
force here got a startling shake-up last
night. Every Office received a sudden
telephone order from Second officer Truel-
sen for the whole force TO turn out and
arrest every Russian in Copenhagen, a
great plot against the Car having been
discovered. The order was Immediately
complied with. The detectives who were
accessible were hurried off in all direc-
tions, and steps were taken TO rouse those
who were off duty.
It occurred 10 only one Of the nine sub
chiefs to doubt its accuracy. He reflected
that there were more than 1000 Russians
in the city, and concluded that there must
be mistake somewhere. He telephoned
10 the first officer, who fastened to head
quarters, and found that Truelsen had
gone suddenly mad. The order was can
celed in time to save the liberties Of the
Russians.

rifle shooting is an exercise which tends

In fact. many OF the recommendations
are in line with the policy pursued here
