THE SUNDAY OKEGOKIAtf, PORTLAND, MAY 4, 1902. SMITH'S TRIAL . ENDED r v- XT IS BELIEVED AT 3JAXILA THE GENERAL WILL BE ACQUITTED. c Impassioned Speech of His Counsel In Closing Draws Tears From " 'His Hearers.' MANILA, May 3. The trial by court jnartial of General Jacob H. Smith ended today. The findings of the court will be forwarded to Washington. The general impression here Is that he will bo ac quitted. The closing address of Colonel Charjes A. "Woodruff, for the defense, was a re markable oratorical effort, that drew tears from his hearers. He dramatically sketched General Smith's career, and declared he had conducted a remarKable and success ful campaign In a manner which reflected credit on his valor, humanity and kind ness. Speaking in Impassioned tones, Colonel Woodruff said in olden times vic torious generals tied captives to their chariots. In this case, the General linds himself tied. Sentiment is an. excellent thing, but there Is no place for it in war. "We claim," continued the Colonel, "that the Samar campaign just brought to a successful termination, while pushed actively, vigorously and energetically, was ever conducted "within the limits of war. During the last few months It has seemed popular to criticise the Army In the Phil ippines. People seem to have forgotten Its magnificent service for America's honor and glory. We have been worthy members- of the Army, whose bayonts never Hashed except In defense of the law. Yet today we are apparently disgraced. Why? I cannoi imagine that people at home expect to gain glory and political advancement by abusing the Army. Jt was tried after the Mexican War. It was tried after the Civil War, with the result that Grant, 'the butcher,' was elected President, and dlefl loved and honored by every American? While the campaigns in the Philippines' have not been conducted to meet the views of sentimentalists and troublesome busybodies in the United States, they have been conducted on lines which have reflected credlt'upon the valor, pluck, humanity and kindness of Ameri can soldiers." Colonel Woodruff reviewed the evidence at length, shewing the necessity for mak ing Samar a "howling wilderness," and comparing the campaign in that island with the "strenuous march to the sea, whose route was marked by a cloud of smoke by day and by a pillar of fire by night." The Colonel cited instances of military law in behalf of the defense, and dramatically portrayed General Smith's career. "Now," continued Colonel Woodruff, "after wearing for 41 years the uniform of the United States with honor to himself and to the benefit of the Government, at the close of a remarkably successful cam paign, in which he accomplished what Spain was unable to do In 200 years, while returning, as his friends thought, covered with glory, he was halted and taken off a transport to face charges growing out of the language used In giving Instructions for the conduct of a successful campaign. The defense feels that the Government has only done this in deference to over whelming public sentiment, based on ru mors fostered for ignoble and unknown purposes until hysteria was produced. Then this gray, wounded, victorious Gen eral was exposed to the Indbmlty of a trial. In deference to hysterical public opinion." Colonel Woodruff, concluding, said: "General Smith faces the conscience of the court and people with tho full knowledge that he did his duty as an hon orable commander." The Judge-Advocate. MaJosSHarvey C. Carbaugh. in closing for the prosecution, declared the defense admitted everything and that It only claimed justification. He said General Smith's orders, given to Ma jor Waller on the bloody battle-ground of Balangiga, -were such as to cause men to act ruthlessly In a spirit of revenge. SAW WATER CURE ADMINISTERED. the men. to whom they had given the water cure. Senator Patterson asked a number of questions Intended to develop the fact as to whether native prisoners had been Informed as to the character of the infor mation sought, but did not elicit any thing important from the witness. He dd, however, succeed in causing Senator Beverldge to make protest against his method of inquiry, which brought on a colloquy between the two Senators. Mr. Beverldge declared that In a trial court persistence in such questions as Mr. Pat terson was putting "would render an at torney liable to a fine for contempt of court," to which Mr. Patterson replied that "such interruptions as those of the Senator from Indiana would not only Ten der him liable to a fine for contempt, but also be the cause of sending him to JalL" To this exchange Mr. Burrows added, jocularly, "to Jail, or subjected to the water cure." In reply to a question from Senator Burrows, Mr. Hallock said he had seen the bodies of four of the native prison ers who had been shot by the soldiers while trying to make their escape, but that he had not seen the actual shooting. The committee then went Into executive session, and Senator Lodge laid beforo it the cablecrram from General Chaffee concerning Major Gardener, which wasT later read In the Senate. The committee decided not to request the appearance of Major Gardener pending the Investigation in the Philippines. SHOT BY AN ARMY NURSE WASHINGTON WOMAN DISTINGUISH ES HERSELF AT MANILA.

Papers received from Manila today mention the shooting of Emory Huckleberry, colored, bp Miss Edna Flick, of Vancouver, who Is well known In Portland. Following- is tho story as related In the Manila American of March 19: "Miss Lucllo E. S. Flick, a member of the Army Nurse Corps, shot and serious ly wounded a negro named Huckleberry, who attempted to enter the nurses' quar ters at 2 o'clock yesterday morning.

Tho shooting was not take the public into Its confidence to the extent -of stating Just how much bul lion the mine produces every month, but it is generally believed the April clean up was in the neighborhood of $50,000. A party of Eastern stockholders have been out inspecting the mine and the new 40 stamp mill. President Moore, who suc ceeded F. P. Hayes, was with the party. All of tho stockholders and President Moore seemed well pleased with their in spection of the property.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3. The Exam iner says that the transport Grant will not be able to make the trip to Manila that she was scheduled for on tho 10th of this month. The Grant's boilers have failed to stand tho test to which they were subjected by Inspector xf Boilers John Bulger, and her hull Is so weak that It will take a good many new plates and a whole lot of general structure strengthening before she will bo ready to serve as a transport again. Major Deval, In charge of the transport service at this port, says that the Grant can be placed in first-class condition and that the department Is willing to pay not more than $200,000. He attributes the con dition of the vessel's boilers to the heavy work required of them. The Grant has been in commission since January, 1899, and has met with no mishap, though she has been laid off five times for repairs. The department purposes curtailing the transport fleet, and It has been decided to lay off the Meade, Sherman, Hancock and Warren:. The Egbert and Rosecrans have been put up at auction already. This will leave eight vessels plying between San Francisco and Manila the Buford, Crook, Kllpatrlck. Sheridan, Lawton, Lo gan, Grant and Thomas. OPENS HIS CAMPAIGN FOR CONGRESS. Information Secured From Natives in Pnnny. WASHINGTON. May 3. L. E. Hallock, of Boston, formerly of he Twenty-sixth Volunteer Infantry, testified today before the Senate committee on the Philippines concerning the practice of the -water cure in the Philippine archipelago. Mr. Hal lock told of me Infliction of the cure upon a dozen natives at the town of Leon, Province of Panay, August 21 and 23, 1900. They v. ere captured and tortured in order to secure Information of the murder of Private O'Hearne. of Company I, who had been not only killed, but roasted and otherwise tortured before death ensued. Captain Glenn, in charge of a scouting party, had first secured a confession of participation In this crime by one native, who had Implicated 12 others. These were, the witness said, taken to Leon, where his company, under command of Captain Gregg, was stationed, and there the cure was administered. "Who Inflicted the cure?" "Members of Company I." "Were they ordered to do so?" "They were; by First Sergeant J. Man ning, who is now in Boston." Hallock added that he had witnessed the torture, but had not participated in It. While It was In progress, Captain Gregg was at company headquarters, less than 100 yards distant. "Did Captain Gregg know of the tor ture?" asked Rawlins. "All the command knew It, and I don't see how he could have helped knowing it." Asked what became of the Philippine prisoners to whom the cure was adminis tered, he replied that they were placed in a guardhouse 20 by 25 feet in size, in which there was one window, and In which there were at times 18 men con fined. The 12 prisoners were kept for four or fh'e months, dndthen they tried to escape. Thatjeffort had been success ion on tne part for some, -but five or six fleeing prisoners were shot and killed. One of them was killed while trying to get away when the squad was taken to the river for a bath, and the others when out at work in a general rush for lib erty. "Were all the prisoners who did not escape killed?" "I think so, with one exception; I think one was given his freedom." Mr. Hallock also stated that "he had been present when a village of 3000 or 4000 had been burned, and that the oc cupants of the houses had not had time to carry out the furniture. He had known of three or four other cases of such de struction of property, but had not been an eye-witness. ; In reply to other quest Jons, Mr. Hallock said the .report was current among the soldiers that the administration of the water cure was common when they de sired to4 secure information from natives. He also -said that during his entire service In the ..Philippines he had known of the killing of probably 200 or 300 natives, mostly In battle, and of the killing of probably 20 Americans. Lodge brought out the details of the murder of Private O'Hearne. The wit ness said that In June, 1900, O'Hearne, with two other members of the company, had been sent to Ho Ilo for malh and that on their return, June 30, they were ambushed by 100 natives and O'Hearne's companions were captured. O'Hearne had made a dash to get away, and, after escaping from the attacking party, had fallen in with other natives supposed to be friendly,, but that, instead of proving to "be so,' they had devoted the entire next day "to his torture and death, begin ning 'at. daylight by cutting him with bolos and then roasting him All day by a slow -fire, not finishing until night. All these details had, the witness said. PERSONAL MENTION. E. Hofer, a Salem newspaper man, is at the Perkins. J. H. Albert, president of tho Capital National Bank, Salem, is at the Portland.

While over In Gilliam Coun ty in quest of the nomination for Con gress for J might as well be frank about It I made a discovery that was entirely new to me. While traveling through Gil liam 'in March, I saw immense stacks ot grain threshed and piled up In the sacks thousands of bushels of the very finest wheat, that had lain there all wmier. covered with straw, because of the lncic nf transportation. That state of affairs, mind you, existed within a day's ride on horseback of the cheapest of deep-water . .... -r .v.An nnJ tVifiro mnnG inuuporiauuiu x mcu imu --.- up my mind that nomination or no nomi nation. Congress or no Congress, I would thereafter never let an opportunity escape me to contribute my aid toward opening the Columbia River to navigation. With the opening of this greatest river of the Pacific, not only would the value of every acre of land and every bushel of grain in the Columbia basin be enhanced, but the production of cereals in that region would be doubled. For the Government to delay longer this needed Improvement would be to retard arbitrarily the growth and development of three ot Its greatest states Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Senator Williamson denounced tho doc trine of "tariff for revenue only" as a meaningless statement of what purports to be a political principle. He said If the Democrats should be placed in power, they could enact discriminative tariffs without violating this plank in their plat form. Democracy Always "Wrong. "It Is not to ha wondered at that the party which has not been right upon any of the Important political questions of tho last EO years should bo wrong on expan sion," he said; and then, among tho measures upon which tne iemocracy mi been wrong, he named the Missouri Com promise, the Civil War, unlimited green back currency, the tariff question, free coinage of silver, and, finally, expansion. Contrasted with that record, he reviewed the history of the Republican party, showing that It was right on the question of human slavery, protection of our man ufactories, payment of the war debt, sound money, and expansion. He closed In an eloquent peroration In which ho ex pressed confidence that tho people of Or egon will continue to Indorse the party that has always stood for progress and prosperity, and keep Oregon In the list of Republican states. The Proper Coarse for Safferers. Great numbers of people suffer from tho malign poisons of catarrh, as from other chronic maladies, without any correct or definite Idea of the nature of their af fliction. The following symptoms have been carefully arranged to enable many sufferers to understand iust what It 13 that alls them. Many diseases, known under various specific names, are really of a catarrhal origin and nature. Every part of the mucous membrane, the nose. the throat, eyes, ears, head, lunge, stons ach. liver, bowels, kidneys and bladder, are subject to disease and blight by ca tarrh. The proper course for suffererf Is this. Read thee symptoms carefull? over, mark tho?e that apply to your casa and bring th! with you to Drs. Copeland and Montgomerv. If you lle away from! the city, send them by mall, and ask foi mail treatment.
