1900 MOR0S SLAUGHTERED
SHIP PASSENGERS TELL OF BAT
TIE OF RAGsAG.
Natives Used Women and Children
as Shields as American Sol
diers Make Charge.

San Francisco-T 1900 Moroa
were slain by American troops in
the recent battle of Bagsag in the
Philippines was the story brought
here by passengers from the Orient on
the liner Persia. They declare no
quarters was given the natives, who
used women and children as shields
against American bullets.
John Mclean, a civil employee of the
United States quartermaster, de-
clared Brig Gen. Pershing, in charge
Of the Moro expedition, maintained a
strict censorship and arrested news,
papermen who tried to get the details
Of the Bagsag engagement.
The details were horrible Mclean
said The Moros, making their last
stand, were shot down to man. When
the Americans made their final as
sault on the Moro position in the
crater Of an extinct volcano, he said,
many of the natives held women and
children in front Of them In this
way 1876 women and $40 children were
shot to pieces.
It was believed that every Moro
who took part in that battle was
killed by Pershing's troops. All Of
the bodies were burned,
"The American and Philippine Off.
cials allowed only the most meager
reports to be sent out Of Jolo while
the treacherous Moro bandits were
being exterminated,". said Mclean,
Three correspondents who managed
to reach the seat OF war were arrested
on orders Of Brig Gen. Pershing, and
when | left the islands they were in
danger Of being imprisoned for at
tempting to violate the censorship"

Special Hospitals Needed.

The National Association for the
Study and Prevention Of tuberculosis
estimates that there are over a mill
lion consumptives in the United
State, Of whom probably at least one
third are unable to provide for them
selves the necessary treatment at
home. Most Of these cases are a men
ace to the health Of their families and
associates, and should be in special
hospitals. At the present time, how
ever, even If every case were known,
it would not be possible to provide ac-
commodations for more than one in
eight or ten. The removal Of these
foci of infection demands more and
better hospital and sanatorium pro
cision.

SEES POVERTY in FREE SUGAR
Senator Thornton Tells Colleagues
Staple Placed on Free List Viii
Be Blow to His State.

Washington. Declaring that in the
crisis faced by the people Of Louisi-
ana because sugar is to be placed
upon the free list, national feaIty
must give way to state fealty, as in
the days Of the civil war, Senator
Thornton of Louisiana told his Demo
cratic colleagues in a speech in the
senate that he could not vote for the
bill.
4 do not say the people of Louisi-
ana will never recover from this cruel
and needless blow, but they must
tread the paths of adversely fer long
years to come, and many who have
lived in comfort will die in poverty"
he declared.

SECRETARY MeADoo READY TO
DEPOSIT s5o.ooO,ooo IN MA
TloNAL BANKS.
ACCEPTS BONDS 70 SECURE
Treasury for First Time to Take Com,
merciaI Paper, Approved by Clear
ing House Committees in Va
rlous Cities, as Security.

Washington. twenty-five to fifty
million dollars Of government funds
will be deposited in the national
banks OF the south and west at once
by Secretary McAdoo to facilitate the
movement Of crops Federal state and
municipal bonds and prime CONNER
cial paper will be accepted as security
for the money, upon which the banks
will pay 2 per cent interest.
The move of Secretary McAdoo in
establishing this policy is to anticipate
the money stringency in the late sum
mer and fall, which Invariably accom-
panies the marketing and movement
Of crops, especially when they are UNI
usually large. as the harvest now be-
ginning forecasts. He intends to take
time by the forelock and prevent or
minimize the usual lightness Of money.
Government Bonds at Par.
In statement the secretary made
the significant announcement that
government bonds would be accepted
at par as security for the new deposits
and that the additional money would
be placed only with banks which have
taken out at least 40 per cent Of their
authorized circulation. The United
States 2 per cent bonds, serving as
security for most OF the national bank
circulation have been depressed re-
Gently to new low market records,
dropping 10 S5z during inc past few
days.
The secretary's willingness to accept
these bonds at par as security for the
$25,O00,0OO to s5O,0OO,O0O of promised
deposits and the inducement to the ma
tional banks to increase their circu-
lation up to the 40 per cent limit is
expected to help in restoring the par
ity of the depressed rs by creating
new market for them.
A New innovation.
For the first time in history the
government will accept prime CONNER
cial paper as security for deposits.
This privilege will be granted, an
nounced the secretary, in order to
make those special deposits available
to banks on securities readily within
their reach.
"The commercial paper submitted,
added Mr.. McAdoo, shall first be
passed upon and approved by the
clearing house committees Of the cities
in which the banks offering such paper
may be located. All commercial paper
and bonds must finally be passed upon
and accepted by the secretary"
Approved commercial paper will be
accepted as security for the deposits
at 65 per cent Of its face value and
high-class state, municipal and other
bonds, exclusive of government bonds,
at rs per cent Of their market value.

use Of Coca-Cola has so fastened itself

The Coca-Cola habit Is analogous, to
the beefsteak habit and to the straw

People drink Coca.Cola first because
they see It advertised and thereafter
because II tastes good and refreshes

grand jury has returned indictments for
embezzlement against j. Parks Worley,
revenue agent for East Tennessee; Roy

from the American Company, Ltd, in
Claiborne county. Facts about the col
lection of this money were brought out
during the sitting Of the Williams leg

cording to the testimony developed at
that time, the money was collected, but
about all Of it went to Morley and
Johnston, little, if any, going to thf
