Otis Requires Reinforcements
to Hold the Islands.
Manila, May 26. Tbe events of
the past week have emphasized the
need of a much larger army here,
.without which, according to the best
authorities in Manila would be at
tempting the impossible, to expect to
maintain supremacy in the Philippine
islands. The inadequacy of the Amer
ican forces is said to be responsible for
the large loss in the number of small
encounters, without material results
as compensation. Most of tbe fight
ing has been done in territory which
.the Americans had swept, but bad
been compelled to abandon because
they could not spare the troops to hold
it.
tity of war today sent the following
cablegram to General Otis: Many
petitions are received to have the
Washington and Oregon troops sent
direct to Puget sound and Portland
This can be done if the men wish it.
It will deprive them of $25 to $35 for
travel pav from San Francisco. Let a
vote be taken with this knowledge by
regiments, and advise me.

spring to Dawson, come renewed fears
of pestilence and death. Stringen
sanitary measures are being adopted
Health Officer Good has posted public

nearer than a mile above the city.
The Yukon council Is planning a sys

Inhabitants to use the utmost care in
cleaning their premises prior to the
breaking up of the river. Notwith
standing all these precautions, physi

Coney Inland 8aloou Keeper Accused of
Burntnic Their Property.
New York, May 26. A fire which
started in the Bowery district, of
Coney island, about 4 o'clock this
morning seems to have threatened the
complete destruction of the bathing
pavilions, restaurants and summer
hotels and small stores in that section
of the island. The Brooklyn police
reserves have been ordered out and at
5 o'clock this morning the fire is not
yet under control.
Reports received by the Evening
World from Coney island are to the
effect that two fires broke out simul
taneously on both ends of the "Bow
ery," about five squares apart and
close to the beach. - The places where
the two fires originated were both al
most inaccessible for fire engines.
The fact that the fires broke out simul
taneously and at places so difficult of
access on the part of the firemen is
taken as an indication that the fires
were of incendiary origin.
The police board of Greater New
York, which has jurisdiction over
Coney Island, located as it is in the
borough of Brooklyn, recently issued
sweeping orders insisting upon a rigid
enforcement of the law' so far as Sun
day saloons and concert halls are con
cerned. Some there are who think
certain residents of Coney Island may
have preferred to collect insurance
money rather than suffer tbe financial
loss which would have resulted from
the carrying into effect of these orders
from the city authorities.
The fire swept along two of the board
wains close to tbe beach, a veritable
cyclone of flames, destroying concert
halls, summer gardens, saloons, small
houses and stores. These buildings
were all constructed of frame material
and there seemed to be nothing to
check the progress of tbe flames.

A beautiful complexion is an impos
sibility without good pure blood, the
sort that only exists in connection
with good digestion, a healthy liver

acts directly on the bowels, liver and
kidneys keeping them in perfect
health. Price 25 cts and 50 cts.

Royal Weddlos at Newport.
Newport, R. I.. May 26. Miss
Julia Dent Grant, who is to be wedded
here early in the fall to Prince Canta
cuzene, 'is expected to come to New
port a few days after her arrival in
New York next Wednesday. The
prince will be here about the middle of
August, and the wedding will take
place a few weeks later and will un
doubtedly be the society feature of the
Newport season. The wedding will be
a royal one in its appointments.

Washington, May 26. The secre-,
New York, May 29. The Times
London financial correspondent cables:
Paris has at last betrayed symptoms
of tiredness. The French are mar
velous people, the most painfully
thrifty in the world, but eyen they
cannot supply means for all the follies
to which they are invited to subscribe.
Early last week some of their industrl
al paper structures began to crumble,
and suddenly tbe bourse found itself
over loaded in many directions. It
has been sulky ever since, and twice
during the week it looked almost dis
posed to abandon Spanish investment
Poor old Spain seems about to throw
up the sponge and apologetically re
pudiate. No one expected any govern
ment official to admit bankruptcy
squarely: your Spaniard has far too
much dignity to do anything of the
sort. But an indirect admission does
just as well, so the next debt coupon
is not to be paid until the cortes votes
tbe new budget with fresh taxes,
which is not a job of lightning express
order. Worse still, in some respects,
the government has viciously kicked
the Bank of Spain, so that it may die
of ill usage. Spain has no commerce
to speak of, except what foreigners
conduct. The Bank of Spain ha3,
therefore, levied on the government
by the simple process of making it
advances as required out of increased
issue of notes. The security given
consisted of Cuban bonds, treasury
notes and 4 per cent redeemable bonds.
The interest on the Cuban bonds has
been frankly suspended, that on all
tbe other debts has been postponed,
and harder treatment that is, if pos
sible tbe redemption drawings on re
deemable bonds have been stopped.
The result is that the bank is stranded
high and dry, with assets of perbap3
35,000 represented merely by govern
ment promises to pay "mamma ,'
Tbe only consolation is that the re
pudiation was done with high Spanish
dignity. Tbe government had no
more use for tbe bank, because it
could not get any more notes, there
fore it is left lying like a spent mule.

Havana, May 28. Not a soldier has
thus far appeared at La Punto to re
ceive the honorarium of $75 allotted
by tbe United States for the surrender
of arms and disbandment of the men
composing tbe Cnban army.
At three minutes of 10 o'clock Sat
urday morning, the hour set to begin
the payment of the troops, Major
Francis S. Dodge, of the paymaster's
department, drove up in a four-mule
team with $30,000 in gold and $9,000 in
silver. Six guards accompanied him,
and details of men from the Eighth
infantry, was present as commissioner
of the United States.
General Ruis Rivera, who was in
ducted into the office of ciyil governor
of Havana, was there to receive the
arms, with a representative of General
Gomez, i four or five Cuban officers and
15 reporters. Half a dozen American
clerks "vith the rolls of the Cuban
army sat about a long taDie at tne
headquarters of tbe Eighth regiment.
A bag oi gold was displayed, but there
were no applicants for a share of it.
The spectators spent the time in dis
cussing why no Cubans appeared.
General Rivera said that, though
there were 4319 enrolled privates and
non-commissioned officers in the
Fourth corps, few of them lived in Ha
vana. Me explained tney were outside
the city, and would probably appear
at other places in the provinces and
get their apportionment. Nearly all
the officers, he added, are in Havana.
Tbe representative of Gomez, who
has been acting for the latter, in an
interview with Governor-General
Brooke, took a gloomy view of the
affair. He said the Americans, in
stipulating that the Cubans must give
up their arms, had caused a bad im
pression amodg the Cubans.
A group of Cuban officers, who
proved to be some of General Mayai
Rodriguez' staff, had in the meanwhile
assembled. They smiled at each other,
twisted their mustaches, and grew
confident as the quarter hours passed
and no soldiers appeared. Finally,
they jeered in a quiet way at the whole
proceeding.
Gardens, orchards and grain crops
were badly damaged. A large, tbic
pane of glass in the new addition to
the Fossil Journal office was broken
by the hail. This storm fell in streaks
and, while it missed a large portion o;
territory a few miles south of Fossil
Wagner, 3d miles southeast, felt its
full force. The hail was accompanied
by thunder and lightening'.
On Wednesday, a severe thunder
storm passed over the Majville section
George Gibbons, a painter, lost four of
his best work horses, worth $100 each
at his ranch a few miles northwest of
Mayville. They were killed by light'
ning which struck a barb-wire fence
in his pasture beside which the horses
were huddled during the storm.
KA1N WILL NOT 1NTKKFEKK.
A Vigorous Campaisn Will be Waged Re
gardless of Weather.
New York, May 29. A dispatch to
the Herald from Manila says: General
Otis says, contradicting the general
impression, that the campaign against
the Filipino insurgents will be prose
cuted by the American forces with the
utmost aggressiveness -possible during
tne rainy season, uenerai Lawton is
of the opinion that an early settlement
of the present troubles and the close
of hostilities depends largely upon the
Americans giving rigid protection to
the working classes in their peaceful
occupations, while waging incessant
war against the armed forces of the
enemy from this time forth by means
of guerrilla warfare.
He will show the insurgents by vig
orous action on the rivers, lakes and
mountains that their belief that our
troops cannot campaign In the rainy
reasons or in the mountains is untruo.
Later it is possible that the changing
conditions may demand garrisoning
by districts, so that the valuable part
of the island will be safe for the in
vestment of capital and the prosecu
tion of industries until Americans
completely dominate. Quick trans
portation of the cavalry and the pack
mules is desirable as a means of round
ing up the insurgents.

Mac Arthur Proposes to Arm
Against the Insurgents.
Manila, May 28. General McAr-
thur is in favor of an experiment of
enlisting the Macabebes against their,
old enemies, the Tagales. ' A dele
gation of leading Macabebes visited the
general, and its spokesman read an ad
dress assuring the American commis
sioners of their friendship and of their
willingness to transfer their allegiance
from Spain to the United States.
They complained that the Tagale?
murdered them and burned their vil-
ages, and asked to be protected and
given arms to prolect themselves.
The Macabebes have greatly assisted
in posting the Americans on the
country and the positions of the
enemy. General McArthur would arm
100 of these men and make them scouts,
and if the experiment proved success
ful, he would enlist more of them.
General Otis has issued order in
viting tbe volunteers to re-enlist for
six months, according to the act of
congress bearing on the matter.
The transport Morgan City, which
left San Francisco April 25 with 600
recruits, has arrived and will proceed

Magers Found Guilty!
Dallas, Or., May 28. The jury iu
the Magers case returned a verdict of
murder in the first degree at 4 o'clock
Saturday afternoon. Judge Burnett
will sentence Magers to death next
Friday.
The defense may take an appeal to
the supreme court on the ground that
one of the jurors was not qualified to
act in the case. Magers murdered
Ray Sink last fall. This is his second
conviction for murder in the first de
gree. The first judgement was re
versed by the supreme court.
otls Wants Belnforcements.
Washington, May 28. Owing to
the gravity of the situation in the
Philippines, the feeling of supreme
confidence has given way to appre
hension. A military censorship at
Manila indicates that General Otis
desires to have itgeuerally known that
he wants reinforcements. General
Otis has asked the volunteers to re
enlist. The withdrawal of the latter
would weaken his command 15,000
while the fighting force will be less
than 30,000 including the regulars just
arrived.

M'KINLEV AND THE SOLDIEB8.
He Is Desirous of Meeting all the Vol
unteers. Washington, May 29. The presi
dent has been anxious to meet all the
troops who served in the Philippines,
if this were practicable, and he has
agreed to go to inneapolis and St.
Paul to greet the Minnesota volun
teers. With the possibility that the
president might be unable to continue
his trip further west, the Twin cities
have undertaken to arrange for mobil
ization of all the volunteers as their
guests. The first troops are expected
to arrive at San Francisco the middle
of June and the last by August 1. The
jubilee therefore probably will occur
early in August. The president's ac
ceptance of this invitation does not
necessarily mean that he has aban
doned bis contemplated trip to the
coast.
Millions Given Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the pub
lic to know of one concern in the land
who are not afraid to be generous to
the needy and suffering. The proprie
tors of Dr. King's New Discovery for
consumption, Coughs and Colds, have
given away over ten million trial bot
tles of this great medicine; and have
the satisfaction of knowing it has ab
solutely cured thousands of hopeless
cases. Asthma, bronchitis, hoarse
ness and all diseases of the throat,
chest and lungs are surely cured by it.

Improvement -Oyer Former
From National Bureau.
Following is a summary of. the re
port issued from the agricultural
bureau at Washington for the week
ending May 22:
Except in tbe Southern states, the
week ending. May 22, 18t9, has been
unseasonably cool and unfavorable for
germination and growth, and while
the week has been much warmer than
usual in tbe Southern states, the con
tinued absence of rain over a large
part of that section is proving very un
favorable. Too much rain in the west
ern portion of Kentucky and portions
of Missouri and Arkansas has retarded
cultivation of crops. Frosts occurred
in the central Rocky mountain regions
and in localities in the more northerly
districts east of the Rocky mountains,
causing only alight damage,
Northward of the Missouri and Ohio
rivers, and in the middle Atlantic
states and New England, the week has
been much too cool for corn, retarding
germination and growth. In the most
southerly districts the temperature con
ditions have been more favorable: but
in portions of tbe south Atlantic and
Gulf states the crop is suffering for
rain and is being damaged by insects.
Texas Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Kan
sas corn has done well. Planting is
in progress in the southern portion of
North Dakota and Minnesota, and
northern New England, and is well ad
vanced in other northern States, al
though retarded in South Dakota
Iowa and New York.
Winter wheat is reported as having
been considerably damaged by insects
n tbe central valleys and Middle At
1 au tic states, and on the whole the
prospect in the states east of the
Rocky mountains is less encouraging
than at the close of the previous week.
It is generally heading low. In Call
fornia, while rains will prove beneficial
n the southern part of the state, the
outlook favors a large crop. Owing
to tbe unseasonably low temperature
for several week, the growth of wheat
n Oregon and Washington has been
very slow, but the crop in these states
looks well. Harvesting has begun in
Texas and Alabama.
Spring wheat seeding will be finished
in the Red river valley by May 25; it
is now practically completed in North
Dakota, but has been delayed in
Oregon Over the Southern portions
of the spring wheat region the condit
ion of tbe crop is premising, no mater
ial damage having resulted from recent
frosts.

THE DALLES GRADUATES.
Fifteen loang People Receive Their 1)1-
plomas.
The Vogt Opera house was filled to
overflowing last Saturday to witness
the graduating exercises and listen to
the orations of those who had com
pleted the course of study prescribed
by the high school. There were 15
members of the graduating class, as
foollows: Martha If. Baldwin, Har
riet N. Cram, HenrytE. Curtis, Nettie
M. Fredden,rGffaee' A Hobsoo, Hester
Kent, Lena. C. il. UJebe, Iyan. E.
Oakes, Clyde W. Riddell, George H.
Ruch, Martha A. Schooling, Ina
L. Thompson, Edna E. Oreo, Martha
C. Whealdon and Grace N. Willerton.
Of these Ivan Oakes, George Ruch,
Edna Ureo and Grace Willerton kindly
withdrew their orations in order to
give more time to the other members
of the class.
Tbe stage of the opera house was
beautifully decorated with potted
plants, flags and bunting, and when
the bright young faces of those who,
by years of close application to study,
had mastered the branches taught in
tbe high school appeared it was indeed
a sight that caused a thrill of admira
tion to permeate the entire assem
blage, for they are indeed the pride of
Tbe Dalles.
After the D. C. & A. C. concert band
had rendered two selections, the
graduates appeared in turn delivering
their several orations, all of which
were well worded, and displayed much
tnougnt in preparation. n.acn was
deserving of special commendation,
but to do them justice in an ordinary
newspaper report would be impossible,
hence special comment cannot be
made of any of the productions. Suf
fice to say that every one of the gradu
ates did exceptionally well, realizing
fully the motto of the class "Finishing,
yet Beginning."
The program as published last week
was carried out in full, and at tbe close
of the speaking by the class. Prof.
Gavin delivered to each member the
diplomas, after a brief and feeling ad
dress.

Hitters are just the thing for a man
