Moros as Pirates.

Brig. Gen. Bliss has made a special re-
port to the War Department as Governor
OF the Moro province, from which out!
he was recently relieved to take COM
mand of the Philippines division. The
report calls attention to the great need
Of special provision for the. suppression
of piracy in the Sulu seas, of which law
lessness there has been d revival by
reason of the withdrawal of the small,
light-draft gunbOats engaged on tnat
service hitherto. Cen Bliss warns the
War Department not to be deceived by
the absence OF hostility or the main
tenance OF peace which has prevailed
for two years. He says this condition
ought not TO create the belief that the
Moro has changed his nature and lie
adds: The Jclo Ano Moro is now just
what he has always been-a warrior and
A pirate" He continues in his report:
"TH any one who knows the Moro the
great danger is that continued immunity
will increase both the size and the num-
Der of these piratical gangs. A Moro
who has successfully defied even for a
short time. the Christian government be-
comes a hero to his people. To him re-
sort relatives and friends until state
of war arrives. Then the troops must
intervene. with much killing and the de-
struction of property, followed by tenn
porary peace and general setback of
progress for many years. We have killed
many Moros and produced peace: why
should we not maintain it' Why should
we tempt them to war by the withdrawal
of the evidences of power. the presence
of which is the only thing that will keep
the Moro at peace during the present gen.
eration?"

Thirty-twO gasoline motor boats con-
structed by the Electric Launch Com

delivered To the War Department. The
boats will be used by the Coast Artillery
Corps in planting submarine mine juno

Retirement of Col. Goodloe.
Col Green C. Goodloe, paymaster Of
the Marine Corps. was placed on the re-
tired list OF that branch Of the service
today, he having reached the age limit
of siXty-two years. He Is native Of
Kentucky and entered the Marine Corps
in April. 1869. He has had about forty
years service. of which nearly five years
were spent at sea. his last cruise ending
in December, 1876. He has been at the
head of the pay department. with the
rank Of colonel, since March. 1899.
George Richards, assistant paymaster,
now having the rank of lieutenant colo
mel. will succeed Col. Goodloe as pay
master or the Marine Corps, with the

Dark Colors on Warships.
An unexpected effect OF the decision of
the Navy Department to change the color
of warships from white to slate or war
color is the requirement to change also
the type of material used for awnings.
boat covers and other articles of equipage
on board ship. Khaki canvas has been
used for that purpose in the service for
the past six or seven years. and 1t is
now pronounced unsuitable on account
OF the radical change in the ships color.
Instructions have been issued by the
chief of the bureau Of equipment to pur-
chase white cotton canvas In place of the
khaki canvas. This will not be done
however until the latter material of
which there is a large supply on hand
has been exhausted. 1t is estimated that

In considering memorial TO Lincoln

should be for the eye of the masses, not
of the few. Its object is to inculcate pa
triotism, not simply TO complete an ar

Lincoln way plan is an automobile way-a
rich mans way. Millions of people would
miss each of these ways for want of
money and time. The Capitol place plan
is the whole people plan, reached from

every portion of the ship. except the I'M

Jeff MAY TAKE ON TWO
OR MORE TRIAL HORSES

New York, Nov. 4.-Sam Berger is au-
thority for the statement that Jeffries will
take one or two big fellows before he
meets Jack Johnson next july for the
heavyweight championship of the world.
If jeff is sincere in his desire to have a
real tryout, there are quite number of
gents around who would be able to give
the big fellow a tussle. A statement in
the papers yesterday said that he would
take on three men for three rounds each
before a Philadelphia club.
1t was thought that Jim Flynn and Tony
Ross would be the pair. Flynn really
would give the big fellow a tussle. but at
that Jeff should have no trouble. Ross
would stick the three, too but is about as
dangerous as a crippled child.
If Jeff wants a real tryout and is anxi-
Gus to have a good fight. why not hook
up with Al Kaufman or Jack O'Brien
for the six rounds? Say, take on Kauf-
man one week for six rounds and then
OBrien the next week for six rounds
The latter would never bother Jeff. He
might give a grand exhibition for that
limit, but as far as punishment is con-
cerned he wouldn't trouble the big fellow
for second. kaufman is not short dis
lance fighter. He can hit and is a pun
isher, but if Jeff is anything like what he
was, or even half as good as he was he
would be able to take Albert over the
jumps in six rounds and tear off beau
tiful show. It Is really a good idea that
the big fellow should have tryout or two
before the big go. He can't do any real
work on the stage. There is none of the
real fight in that Big gloves are worn
the rounds are cut to two minutes each
and the danger of knockout is not there

The senior team, on account of the

There wasn't a hitch in the whole pro-

And il all came out just as we told you

as if they intend to go through with the
agreement just as il is written, and L
sincerely hope there will be no hitch of
any kind. OF course all that can be done
at the present time VIII be to wait for the
bids to come in and be opened.
