FAVOR DEPARTMENT
 OF INSULAR AFFAIRS
Washington People Argue that New De partment Would Simplify Admin
 istration of Islands

WASHINGTON, October 14.-A pro- posed federal department of insular af- fairs is generally favored by persons fairly acquainted with the complexity of problems presented in the manage ment of Xtra-continental possessions. There is, however, opposition on the part of those who feel that creation of any new bureau means increased power for the central government. In the present case it would merely mean con- centration, in the interest of efficiency, of authority now divided between diff. erent departments which have no com mon policy and do not always pull to- gether.
 Administration of insular possessions at present proceeds with assistance from congress and White House in matters which might be properly attended to by the head of department. That there is plenty of work for the contemplated division is at once evident when one reflects that there are 3l4l known is- lands, in the Philippine archipelago alone, and that our island possessions have an estimated population of g. 00O OOO

night, after their wholesome supper of hot brown bread and baked beans, the two friends sat on green wicker chairs on the tidy piazza smoking good cigars. The visitor on finishing his cigar tossed the butt down on the grass.
 "'What did you do that for, GeorgeY said Captain Barr Look at 1t, smol- dering down there. Doesn't it look nasty on the nice green grassT
 George turned red.
 CT don't think anybody would mo- tice a little thing like that said he.
 George said Captain Barr, it's just these little things that make neat ness and order, and neatness and or der are big part of success
 George, who had never been very successful man, smiled sarcastically. He said nothing. But a little later he got up and hurried down the neat white path and out of the gate. He was gone over quarter of an hour.
 "'Where the dickens have you been?' said Captain Barr uneasily on his return.
 "'Only just down to the hollow said George, to spit in the river"

When George Bernard Shaw com menced his career as a critic he would not wear evening clothes. So at the vaudeville one night he was stopped at the entrance to the stalls by an usher, who didn't know him.
 "You can't come in like that" the usher said.
 What do you object to-the velvet coat?" said Mir Shaw.
 The usher nodded sternly.
 "Very well; it shall come off"
 And in jiffy the slender critic stood before the official in shirt sleeves of soft, pure, hygienic flannel.
 That won't dor gasped the usher.
 Wont do?" said Mir Shaw. Well, you needn't think I'm going to take off any more. l should like to see this play very much, but don't pro- pose to run the risk of being mistaken for society dowager."
 And, laughing in his most Mephis- tophelian manner, he put on his coat again and departed.

Zach night l burn the records of the day. At sunrise every soul is born again. Laugh like boy at splendors that have sped, To vanished joys be blind and deaf and dumb. My judgments seal the dead past with its dead, But never bind a moment yet to come. Though deep in mire. wiring not your hands and weep lend my arm to all who say "I can" No shamefaced outcast ever sank so deep But yet might rise and be again man.

People Are Gratif7ed.

Bluefields, December 22.-The people here are gratifled over the success of the Estrada army but the jubilation is re- strained on account Of the knowledge that many men have been killed
 The fighting has been in the bush and it will be long time before the number of casualties is known. The major hon. ors of the first days fighting go to Gen. erai Luis Mena, whose thanking movement was brilliantly successful. General Mena was engaged for five hours and ended by an assault on Tatumbla hill, which he captured. This position is the key to vic- tory.
 The defeat of Gonzales at Tatumbla, where he was strongly entranched. drove him back to Recreo, where the revolu- tionary attack was resumed four hours later. Gonzales forces were estimated at 150O, while that led by General Cha morro, Gen. Fornos Diaz and General Matuty numbered about the same. Gen. eral Mena, in the rear. had 600 men.
 One hundred and fifty men were wound- ed and 130 were taken prisoners in tho first days fighting, Monday. All of them were removed to Blueields. General Es- trada's losses include two colonels killed and one missing.
 General Mena cut the telegraph line which connected Gonzales with Managua Prior to this he intercepted messages which showed that many of the Zelayan troops were sick and there was a great scarcity of food

 MT. Wickersham made 1t clear today that he was opposed to any such inquiry pending the endeavors of the two depart ments to punish the persons who are gull ty and in recovering the money wrong fully withheld from the government.
 After that woork has been accomplish ed, he does not care how many investi- gations by Congress might be made. Mir. wickersham said his experience of leg1s- lative inquiries had convinced him that usually the result of such work was the framing of policies for the future rather than assisting materially in punishing the evil-doers and helping to redeem any losses the government may have sus- tained.

NO INFORMATION
 GIVEN BY NEGROES

Washington, December 22--In an en- deavor to ascertain whether Boyd Con- yers, one of the colored soldiers dis charged as a result of the shooting up of Brownsville ever confessed participation in the affray, the military court of in quiry today entered into one of the most perpIexing incidents of the affair.
 William Lawson the colored detective, who made an affidavit setting forth the alleged confession, which was sent to Congress in special message, told of the devious ways of detectives Boyd Com years related to the court how he had told Lawson himself that the alleged con- fession was a "durn lie." For more than two hours Gen. A. s. Daggett. United States army, retired, and Napoleon B. Marshall, counsel for the colored soldiers, tried unnecessarily to break down Law sons testimony.
 The court itself smiled as Lawson re- lated how he became acquainted with Conyers at Monroe, Ga, where Con- yers lived. He found out Conyers' loaf ing places and finally they were 'in- troductioned" to one another. Conyers. as an ex-soldier, and Lawson, as a man who travelled a great deal.
 Lawson detailed how he praised the progress of negroes in Virginia, and how they never stirred up any race trouble and just tried to get the money. He testified that Conyers finally said the crackers in Brownsville had boasted they were not going to have any colored regiment there and had done up'' one of the fellows.
 On cross-examination Lawson was asked why he did not try to get some information out of Conyers on a picnic at which Conyers was Lawson's guest and particularly as they sat together on the train to the picnic.
 "Oh. now you know just how they do on a niggsr picnic" said Lawson to Attorney Marshall They don't sit down, they just keep running about
 General Daggert sought to show that Conyers might have been under the infiu- ence of liquor. Lawson admitted he had given Conyers a drink, but claimed he did not have ''unpresence of mind"
