VICTIMS OF . BOLOMEN
KAUIES OF KILLED AND TTOTJXDED
IX SAMAR FIGHT. ,
Period of Official Monrnlng for t&e
Death of the Fxcsrdcnt Comes to
an End "White Ho wife Visitor.
WASHINGTON, Oct 19. The names of
the killed and -wounded of Company E,
Ninth Infantry, in the engagement -with
bolomen on the Gandara River, Island
of Samar, last "Wednesday, are given in
a cablegram received at the "War Depart
ment from General Chaffee, as follows:
Killed -George Teachant William H.
Ritchie, Edward F Bums, Carl M. John
son, William Lef tin, Jack Fleopiis, Charles
Wilson, Orvllle J. Dromgoole.
Died from -wounds received in action
First Sergeant W. M. F. Gormley, John
D. Kelley.
Wounded Martin G. Lyons, serious;
Robert L. Hampton, serious; Jack M.
Russell, serious; Henry Stelrle, serious;
Eugene E. Dewitt, serious; Frank Mc
Andrew, slight; Musician Charles W.
Buck, slight.
One of the questions that -will require
the. prompt and serious consideration of
Secretary Root on his return to- this city
next week "will be the military situation
In th Philippines. The recent serious
outbreaks in Samar have disturbed the
authorities considerably. It is realized
that they may prove a serious drawback
to the plans of the American pacification
of the Philippines and the extension of
American, sovereignty. There- is no longer
any prospect of. q. substantial reduction
in the strength of the Philippine army
for soma time to came. In faot, the latest
advices from General Chaffee contain ar
gument against any reduction, of the
Army at this time., except as. jequired by
the expirations of enlistments. As pointed
QUt by General Sorbin in. his annual re
port, the Army -will lose nea.riy 2000 men
a, month pn this account. The War De
partment officials are now considering
how ta meet this prospective deficiency
-without impairing the efficiency of. the
rniUtstry establishment In the Philippines.
General Chaffee has sa.id that, he will
require three extra transports to assist
In bringtnjg home the short-term, men
within, the next six or eight months. The
Quartermaster's Department has selected
the transports Meade, Rosecrans and Eg
bert for this special service. The last
two will leave Washington ports in a
few "weeks for Manila. They -will take
out. civilian employes, and supplies. The
Meade, which is at San Francisco is be
ing held In reserve for the purpose of
taking out troops to replace those to be
brought home. Other vessels -which will
be utilized in taking troops to the Phil
ippines are the Grant, at San Francisco,
and the Crook;, at New York. The for
mer, which Is expected to leave about the
middle of next month, will carry out an
entire regiment, "with its equipments, and
the Crook will take the nucleus of another
regiment and a number of recruits. She
will start about the first of December.
Although not finally settled, it Is probable
that the Twenty-eighth Infantry now in
the Department of the Columbia, will be
ordered, to the Philippines on the Grant.

manent member of the counsel of the
Foreign Office of Russia, called upon the
President today. Professor Maartens

to be urging, a meeting of the permanent
court of arbitration, which has never
assembled.
Dr. J. L. McCurry, secretary of the Pea
body school fund, paid his respects to
the President today. He said that the
suggestion has been made that President
Roosevelt succeed the late "President on

representatives at the peace conference
at The Hague, called at the White House
today and lunched with President Roose
velt. Mr. Holls says he has been in this
country since August 20. He asserts that
he never pretended to be the mouthpiece
of the Administration." During his visit
abroad last Summer, Mr. Holls said he
had met Lord Lansdowne.
"I took pains," he said, "to impress the
statesmen whom I had the pleasure of
meeting in England and elsewhere that
I had no official position except member
of the qourt of arbitration, and no au
thority whatever to represent any one
but myself.
"It Is a fact that in private conversa
tion I did discuss, among other questions,
the Isthmian Canal treaty, and it may not
be Improper to say that the burden of
my remarks in England was that the op
position to the original Hay-Pauncefote
treaty by no means implied any feelings
toward Great Britain, but those of sin
cere friendship and regard."

6hip pier by his law partner, A, W.
Evarts. He was unwilling to discuss the
reasons for his return home or to talk
about the Isthmian Canal treaty. He said:
"I cannot talk about this matter, nor
would it be right for me to discuss possi
ble treaties or the canal question, I shall
remain over here until Now Year's, and,
of course, shall go to Washington to con
fer with the President and Secretary Hay.
I shall not go to Washington for a few
days."
Mr. Evarts, who left the pier after the
Ambassador's family had driven away,
said that the Ambassador had gone to
catch an early train for his Summer home
at Stockbrldge, Mass.

THERE WAS NO RUN.
Affairs of the Merchants' National
Bank of Lowell.
LOW.SLL. Mass., Oct. 19. Olhe Mer
chants' National Bank opened and closed
its doors at the usual hours today, and
nothing s out of tho ordinary Occurred to
Interfere with its husiness. despite the
s.urprjs.lng absence of the teller, Albert (J.
Qrnith. and the book president, Louis K.
Swift. A slight depression in business
was noticed, and inquiries respecting bal
ances were more numerous, but the "run,"
for whch the directors had prepared, did
not materialize. The bank had money
enough to square accounts with all tlie
depositors,
The most interesting development of the
day was the engagement of counsel to
represent the Interests of the missing men.
This information leads to the conclu
sion that t,erm,s In the direptlon of a set
tlement are soop to he submitted to the
directors- The only Information of te
probable loss was given this morning py
qne of the directors, Charles J, Lilley,
who, -when asked as tQ whether or not
the report that the loss is 90,000 was likely
to be an exaggeration, replied that ha
believed i would turn out to be an exag
geration. Tonight the loss Is thought tp
he even greater than that amount, how
ever, the continued silence of the direc
tors; hehig construed as unfavqrable indi
cations. The whereabouts of Smith and
Swift may be kpown to their wives, their
lawyers and the' directors qf the bank, but
all efforts upon the part of others to trace
them have proved unavailing. The cities
of Boston and Montreal are the places
most mentioned in this connection, but
nothing of a definite character has heen
found. The houses of the two men in
Lowell' are under constant surveillance by
tho police.
At a meeting of the bank directors to
night the affair was fully discussed, but
at the close of the meeting the directors
were unwilling to make' any statement.

the Merchants' National Bank of Lowell,
Mass,, made September ?Q, snows that at
that time the bank declared Its condition
In part as follows: Surplus, $200,000; un

Smelting? Trust Intends to Use More
Economical Methods.
DENVER, Oct. 19. The tour of inspec
tion begun by the directors of the Amer
ican Smelting & Refining Copipany im
mediately after the recent meeting in
this city is practically completed. The
next thing, according to Daniel Guggen
heim, chairman of the executive com
mittee, Will be tp put In the improve
ments. "It will require a- number of months to
make the contemplated Improvements,"
fald he, ''and n the meantime we hope
to do something to keep up the price of
lead and to help silver along. Our object
is to modernize the plants so that ore can
be handled and smelted cheaper, and we
can name a lower rate for' smelting
charges. This undoubtedly we will be
able to do at an early date. We want
to encourage the small miner and make
the industry profitable to the miner as
well as ourselves."
Mr. Guggenheim is hopeful of the cop
per situation and does not believe there
will be any decided fall In the market
price of copper. Mr. Guggenheim says te
ppmpany wlU make use of the pyrltlc
method of smelting where conditions are
favorable for that systen. The company,
according to Mr. Guggenheim, proposes
to adapt itself to changing conditions to
adopt methods that will extract the values
at the least possible cost. He declares
