The plan arranged for the emperor and
Imperial headquarters to move to Kyoto
has been temporarily abandoned and It Is
now though, better not tt9. remove until
after the closing of ; thq special sosslon- of
the diet early In April. The Inconvenience.
Of removing the seat of government and
convening the diet at Kyoto Is the reason
assigned for the change in plan. Small
Interest Is manifested In tha forthcoming
lection. The war overshadows all polit
ical questions Just now. The country Is
united politically and It Is expected that
the new diet will fully support the govern
ment and cordially approve all measures
Concerning the war.

lowed to address the Jury. He broke down
several times.
In making his confession In the open

self on account of fear of being killed In
Breathitt county afterward it he testified
to what he knew. He said that county
officers and others had told him that ho

and his family would suffer.
He addrexsed tho Jury for fifteen min

prominent people at Jackson and the

Poaalhle, Commanded by Lieu
tenant Colonel, for New
Republic.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 23.-Tho War de
partment today Issued orders for the entire
Third regiment of Infantry to proceed to
the Isthmus of Panama. The regiment will
leavo at the earliest possible time on tho
transports Sumner and McClelland from
New York. The regiment la going to Pan
ama to relieve the marines stationed there.
The headquarters of tho regiment are at
Fort Thomas, Ky., Where are stationed
Companies V, D, I, K. L and M. At Fort
Sheridan, Chicago, are stationed Companies
A and B, and at Columbus barracks Com
banlos K, F, Q arid II. The reglmeht wilt
bo commanded by Lieutenant Colonel
Woodbury, the present colonel. Haskell,
being about to retire with an advanced
rank.
Lieutenant Colonel Woodbury Is now of
the Thirteenth Infantry. The War depart
ment has In the past strenuously denied
reports that It Intended to send troops to
tho isthmus, but it Is now explained that
statement only applied to conditions as
they existed before the United States ac
quired vested rights through the acquisition
of the canal sone by the ratification of the
canal treaty.
As the department has now satisfied It
self that this ratification is only a ques
tion of a few hours It has taken the neces
sary steps to permanently garrison the
lethmus, which could not be easily done
with marines.
Women and Children Must Stay.
Tho department announces that none of
the families of the officers or enlisted men
for tho Third Infantry would be allowed
to accompany the regiment. In the future
when permanent barracks and officers'
quarters are constructed on modern plans
this restriction may bo removed.
Tho 1,000 marines now on the Isthmus
will bo taken to Ouantanamo as rapidly
as their places can be filled by tho troops.
From Ouantanamo at least a part of this
force will bo taken to tho Philippines, prob
ably coming to tho Vnlted States and em
barking from San Francisco for Manila.
Orders for 600 marines to sail from that
point at an early date were issued a short
time ago and it is likely that an additional
force will go out later In pursuance of the
Navy department's policy of upbuilding In
every way possible the Asiatic station and
strengthening the marine force at Olong
apo. It Is intended that an adequate force
of marines shall be kept at Ouantanamo
in case of probable emergencies In Central
and South America. Especially Is it de
sired that thero shall be a sufficient force
there for the government to call upon if
it ahould undertake to execute a drastlo
program in San Domingo.

Ills Article la the Medical Mag-nslne
About Coffee.
One of the most famous medical publica

entertaining article on coffee by a progres

In explaining his position In the matter
this physician recently said:
"In the article in question I really
touched but lightly upon the merits of
Postum Food Coffee. I huve had several
cases of heart trouble, Indlgemlon and
nervousnesa where a permanent cure was
effected by merely Uhlng Postum In place
of coffee, without any other treatment.
"In my own family I have used Postum
for three years, and my children actually
cry for It and will not be satisfied a 1th
any other beverage. Indeed, they refuse
to eat until they have had the customary
cup of Postum, and as It Is a rebullder
and does nothing but good, 1 am only too
glad to let them have It.
"To get the best results we boll the
Poatum at least 30 minutes, and it Is then
settled by adding a Utile cold water; then
tho addition of fresh cream makes a bev
erage I now prefer to the very beat cof
fee." Name given by Poatum Co., Battle

Authorities are agreed that Postum Is a
wonderfully quick and sure r builder. Ten
days trial In place of coffee proves It.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 23 president
Rcc
owvelt Is experiencing some difficulty
Securing the servlrca nt nun, nf ..,,.k
In
ability and prominence as to warrant him
In appointing them members of the Isth
mian cannl commission. An Instance of
this Is the decllnntlon of John Oarber, nf
San Francisco, of the proffer made to him
by the president. Mr. Gnrber Is a mining
lawyer of established position nnd wide
reputation. He emild not afford to sacri
fice his practice to accept a position on
the commission. Similar difficulty Is be
ing encountered M the case nf Alfred
Noble of the Pennsylvania railroad, whose
services the officers of the Pennsylvania
system do not want to relinquish because
of the large projects he has under bis
supervision. Rome arrangement may be
effected, however, by which Mr. Noble may
undertak? the government work.
Under tho Spooner act. the president has
authority to fix the compensation of tho
connl officers until the congress shall de
termine the snlarles. The compensation
of engineers nnd other employes on tho
be fixed by the commission
itself.
As Mr. Garber has declined appointment,
Is expected the tiresMont will .Mot
It
some other mi-n who resides in one of the
Pacific const Mates. It has not yet been
determined who that man will he.
It Is considered likely that the southern
member of the committee will be M. R.
Harrod, on of (he engineers of the Mis
sissippi river commission. He is a resi
dent of New Orleans. He Is regarded as
ono of the best equipped engineers In tho
country.

announced for them.
Some republicans alsn wore absent on this
Vote. Senators generally commend the
management of tho treaty by Senator Cul
loni, chairman of the committee on foreign
relations, who has had charge of the meas

finally withdrawn and the amendment
adopted, but not until "rulo 16" had made
its nnnunl Inroads Into the valuable time
of the senate. The agricultural bill re
