Antls Want an Investigation. WASHINGTON. Juno 12. Representa tive McCall, of Massachusetts, today pre sented to the House a memorial signed by Charles Francis Adams, Andrew Car negie, Carl Schurz, Edwin Burrltt Smith and Herbert Welsh, asking that a Con- gresslonal committee of investigation be appointed to go to the Philippines to in quire Into and report upon conditions ex isting there. Mr. Carnegie's signature was authorized by cable. The memorial is dated at Boston, and states that the signers are a committee appointed at a recently held meeting of persons, irre spect of parts', interested in the policy pursued by the United States toward the Philippines. Blamed the Correspondents. BERLIN. June 12. The harmony of the Parliamentary reception held a few even ings ago by Count von Posadowskl-Weh-ner, the Imperial Secretary of the In terior, was disturbed by a painful Inci dent between Baron von Rlcbthofen, the official secretary, and Mr. Saunders, the correspondent In Berlin of the London -Tlme3. The latter was conversing with thCForelgn Secretary, when Baron Rlcht hofen raised his voice and said bitterly: "Nobody contributed more than you to ward poisoning public opinion in England against Germany. I repeatedly told your Ambassador that In view of the Influence of the Times in England and the echo of Its utterances in Germany, your biased and venomous reports were an absolute calamity to both countries." Narratives of this episode are published In various Influential newspapers. It Is the desire of the Ministry that the bitter ness between Germany and Great Britain during the South African war should be forgotten as soon as possible, but In some quarters it Is believed Instead of blaming the German newspapers, the Ministry is disposed to hold the English correspond ents responsible for this state of affairs. t ' CADETS GRADUATE. Presentation of Diplomas and Close of Celebration at "West Point. "WEST POINT, June 12. The centennial celebration of the Military Academy closed today with the presentation of di plomas to the 100th graduating class by President Roosevelt and an address by General 'Dick, of the visiting board, and remarks by General Miles. The weather was fine and the ceremony took place out of doors on that part of the parade grounds known as "Cavalry Place." An open tent over a platform had been erected for the speakers and officials, and standing at the front of the platform President Roosevelt presented each new officer with his diploma. It was expected the President would make a few remarks, but he simply shook hands with each cadet. On the platform beside the President were General Horace Porter, General Miles, Secretary Root, Secretary Moody, Postmaster-General Payne, the Chinese Minister, "Wu Ting Fang, Senator Pettus, of Alabama; Senator Quarles, of Wiscon sin; Governor Odell, the Italian Ambas sador, Slgnor Des Planches; Generals Cor bln, Young, John M. Schofleld, McCook, Brooke, the Right Rev. Dr. Conaty, the academic board of the academy, Cheklb Bey and Congressman Dick, of Ohio. The audience, comprising ladles in fash ionable Summer costumes, and the entire cadet corps and several hundred visitors, occupied chairs on the lawn under trees, and the -clear sky and beautiful scenery about West Point gave the exercises a picturesque setting. The speakers were General Dick, of the board of visitors; Secretary Root, for the Government, and General Miles, for the Array. General Dick said In part, after giving advice to the cadets: "The wars conducted by the United States never have been for conquest. Cuba is now a sister republic and Porto Rico has more freedom and contentment than ever before. The war with Spain was unavoidable, and we came into pos session of the Philippines as a result. Our authority there must be as absolute as our responsibility. That we will suc ceed gloriously In the work we have taken up In the Philippines the world now knows." He said that "West Point would last as long as the Nation needed an Army. Secretary Root said It was a funda mental principle that the military branch of the Government had been subject to control of the Government. He told the cadets to bear In mind that their educa tion was not by any means complete, and that they could go on learning to be good soldiers until they retired. If they were lucky enough to live until the age of 64. The regular Army in time of war, he said, was a nucleus of a greater organi zation, including the militia and National Guard, and he advised the cadets to get the good will of these bodies and of citi zens interested In the Army. The Secretary told how an old officer In the late war happened to come under the command of a young volunteer offi cer, and yet continued .his duty without giving any sign of the feelings he must have had as an old and faithful soldier. "His conduct," said the speaker, "at tracted the attention of the President, who picked him out to lead the American Army to Pekln General A. R. Chaffee. It was because he ruled his own spirit that the President thought he could take a city." General Miles' remarks were those of an older to younger officers, and re ferred almost wholly to the business of war. He said there were supreme mo ments In the life of a soldier, one when an officer knows ho is doing just what the enemy thinks he is not, and when he feels one more victory has been added to American glory. General Miles was loudly cheered and applauded when he arose to epeak. LOW" EXCURSION RATES. Portland to Minneapolis and Return, $52. Portland to Chicago and Return, $72. On June 28.

It was argued that if Tracy's sister lived in that house Tracy was" likely to go there for rest and assist ance, for It lad been reported that he was wounded in his arm. And yet a gen eral feeling seemed to pervade the posse and the militiamen that if Tracy wanted to show his fraternal affection by looking in on his sister a few minutes on a lovely June afternoon, It was nobody's business. It might be Durbln's business, perhaps, but Durbln wasn't there, and without or ders from nlm, why proceed? All ears were strained for the noise of the hounds baying in the bottom, but nothing was heard but the soughing of the wind and the babbling of the brook. The welcome announcement of the ap proach of the Sheriff to send them on their blissful errand did not come. A fur ther general silence evoked no further sound. One of the posse thought he heard the convicts looking at him, but it proved A. AKER'S HOUSE NEAR MONITOR, WHERE TRACY AND MERRILL BREAKFASTED. to be a false alarm, and so the posse, the militiamen, the farmers "who came to see the capture. Marshal Kester of Hubbard and Constable Beach of Woodbum sat and waited, impatiently but firmly. At last Surgeon-General Glllls, Major Leabo and Captain Finzer, who did not care to taje any chances on, losing the convicts ifhey really were In the house, held a conference, and as a result the com pany was deployed along the creek to stop the convicts when they came down and to enable the Sheriff to have plenty of play for the bloodhounds on the other side of the house. But hardly had the order been given and the khaki uniforms mingled with the greenery of the bluff than "Snap" Arms, courier of Company D, came scorch ing down the pike with the news that the convicts had been seen at Graves' ranch, three miles from Xeedy. Constable Beach expressed a doubt about the reliability of the report; so did several other people. Arms admitted that it was hearsay, but said he considered It to be true. How ever, the forces were under Durbln's com mand, and without Durbln's order the cav alcade could not move. Durbln had gone to Investigate. Five ten fifteen minutes elapsed, and then a very small boy, riding a very large horse dashed down the road and announced himself as the special en voy from Durbln himself, sent to call the troops forward to the fray. The troops moved forward and kept on going untol they were In the enemy's " territory, per haps in his lines. Then they were de ployed along the road, the posse was scat- 'tered around the tract of ground pointed out by Durbln as the place where the convicts must be, and as the fight had already been carried Into Clackamas, the iired bloodhounds and the still more tired Sheriff returned to Aurora, where Durbln telephoned to Governor Gccr to call out xfiT crr V 111 V V the Oregon City company of the National Guard, and notified Sheriff Cooke, of Clackamas County, that the ba'tle was up to him. The spot where the men were last seen Is near Molalla Corners, and there Sheriff Cooke hastened tonlgnt. He found that the Marlon County Sheriff had stationed his posse in such a manner as to cut off the eastward and southward escape of the convicts, and that his plans were well laid. They wlllt mount, guard, there to night, and If the desperadoes come out they will have to do it decently and in order. It is not believed that they will again venture past their pursuers, for both must be tired and worn by this time, but if ever they get into the mountains east of here they will be in a position to bid a long farewell to the dangers and risks of the past few days, and lead a life of peace and quiet in the mountains as long as they have ammunition enough to kill game. SUPERINTENDENT LEE TALKS. Holds Prompt Steps "Were Taken to Capture the Fugitives. SALEM, June 12. Superintendent J. D. Lee, of the penitentiary, today Issued the following statement regarding the escape of Tracy and Morrill: "The break was made about 7 A. M. I was at the cottage, and came at once. Not knowing its extent, I commenced 'phon ing for assistance to the asylum, the city and county officials, the militia and the people about the business places, so that a strong cordon might be formed around the wall to repel further release of pris oners. All responded splendidly. In the meantimo I ordered teams, physicians, the mate friends of deceased and the Coroner. In about an hour we were ready to com mence the organization of posses, the general management of which was ably conducted by Sheriff Durbln and Marshal Gibson. The escapes had time to reach the forests south f the city, where they could have skulked for two or three days. Each clew was diligently followed up. We sent rations to the men. so that the hunt could be continued without cessa tion. The telephone was kept going, and all parts of the country notified. The copy of my posters with descriptions and offer of rewards were soon In the hands of the printer. The crossing places of the Willamette and Santlam and the main roads were guarded. Such of my force as could be spared were sent out with In structions to stay all night and telephone us when opportunity permitted. The county and city officials, the people and the militia all did nobly, and the fugl- tlves wisely backtracked and secured I clothing In the southern suburbs of the city, followed a back street and stole horses In the northeastern part. "Further details of the gallant work of our people need not be narrated, for I only wished to correct the impression that 20 hours elapsed before efficient effort was made. The arrival of the hounds and the change of direction of the fugitives required a second organization. "The celling together of Tracy and Mer rill was not the work of Inexperienced men. When I came Into office they were together. Mr. Brophy has been consld- ered a most excellent warden of years of prison experience. Mr. Janes, the pres ent warden, has had some IS years' ex perience In prison work. Prison men, like all others, differ upon many points. It has been thought In years past that the solitary method was- mo'st efficient, but when men are working together and otherwise brought In contact. It Is next to Impossible, without a great number of guards, to prevent communications, so the practice le changing. "In some great and progressive pris ons, like Ohio, for example, at stated times they allow the prisoners to come together in perfect social freedom. Each way has Its arguments. "I trust the public will take a dispas sionate view of the case. For more than j three years we have not had a delivery iiuiu iuc yuisim a rcuiuiuuio record, which would seem to Justify our meth ods." Oregon City Militia to Scene. OREGON CITY, June 12. Forty men of Company A, Third Regiment, Oregon Na tional Guard, in command of Captain H. Lelghton Kelly and First Lieutenant Fred erick W. Humphreys, left at S:30 tonight in wagons for a point one mile west of Molalla Corners. This afternoon. Sheriff Durbln telephoned Deputy Sheriff Jack to send the militia.
