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.

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.

GIVE POSSE THE SLIP
(Continued from First Page.)
to be something doing. 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
