crimination. I am satisfied that It Is to Ne
braska's Interests that these soldiers be re
turned at public expense. I have no patience
with those honors that are limited to empty
words. I would not erect a triumphal arch
for these boys to march under after they had
been required to pay their own fare home ,
whllo the soldiers of other status are returnIng -
Ing on special trains. I would prefer to pay
them a tribute that means something. I
would prefer they bo spared the humiliation
of returning at their own expense whllo the
soldiers of other states travct on special
trains at public expense. I have exerted my
host efforts to ptovlde a practical demon
stration of the fact that Nebraska ts proud
of Its soldiers. Although these efforts have
resulted in repented failure , I do not regret
them , for I have done only that which I
have conceived to bo my duty. I am sure ,
also , the people of Nebraska will , ns a whole ,
deeply regret the failure. Hut they may bo
consoled by the reflection that their good
purpose has been thwarted only by a com
bination of railroad companies a combina
tion that la as plainly unlawful as It Is un
patriotic.
"In conclusion , I deslro to express my
heartfelt thanks to the Omaha World-Her

TYPOS HAVE STORMY SESSION
ConnlilernMe niNciinnlnii Over Matter
of AinnlKninntliii ; Allied PrintIng -
Ing Trades.
DETROIT , Aug. 18. After an exceedingly
stormy executive session ot three hours the
International Typographical union today de
cided to leave 'tho settlement of the Chicago
cage difficulty In the hands of the executive
council. The council was empowered to pro
ceed to Chicago , Investigate the difficulty
and take whatever action was deemed , neces
sary. The question Is whether extreme
measures shall bo resorted- In unionizing
all the allied printing trades In Chicago , In
which at present both union and non-union
labor ts employed.
That there Is considerable friction among
tbo various allied printing trades was
brought out during the discussion ot a pro
posed constitutional amendment , providing
for the consolidation ot the different allied
printing trade locals Into ono local , to be
under the jurisdiction of the International
Typographical union.
An unfavorable report on the proposition
was brought In by the laws committee.
During the debate Delegate. Freeal of New-
York , n Btereotyper , said secession of the
stcrcotypers from the International Typo
graphical union was inevitable If their
union was consolidated with the printers'
union. Adherents ot the proposed amend
ment declared that the allied trades were
constantly asking for and getting more from
the International Typographical union , than
Iholr percentage of membership entitled
them to nnd claimed the consolidation
would bo advantageous. After a number of
counter propositions had been considered the
matter was Indefinitely tabled.
A strong fight was made to make the In
ternational Typographical Journal , the of
ficial organ of the International Typo
graphical union , a monthly Instead of a
semi-monthly , as nt present , because It la
being run at a loss. Tills matter was also
tabled .after much discussion.
Reports of committees were the special
order for tonight's session , which continued
until nearly midnight. Among the more. Im
portant actions taken upon thcso reports
was authorizing n conference with the United
Typothctno toward a uniform system of ap
prenticeship , commending Frank W. Bcalmar
government printer , for restoring rates
of wages formerly paid In the government
printing office , authorizing endeavors toward
securing labor legislation by tbo Canadian
Parliament , which has hitherto failed In tdo
upper house ot that body , declaring that no
member of the International Typographical
union ought to become a member of the
National Guard , resolution favoring postal
savings banks , resolutions endorsing princi
ples of tlio late peace conference and de
ploring failure of the general disarmament
feature , commending Assistant Postmaster
General Heath for official actions In favor
of union labor , submitting to the member
ship referendum a proposition for limit of
flvo work days per week , resolution favoring
return to the "all time" system of composi
tion on machine work as against the piece
work system.

BERLIN , Aug. -Emperor William yes
terday unveiled n monument to the dcnd of
the regiment of the First guards on the St.
Prlvnt battleneld In the vicinity of Mctz.
In the address which his majesty made on
the occasion he Bald :
Hallowed recollections ntlond today's
festival , malting hearts boat higher. My
first regiment of Foot Guards Is represented
by one company , Its glorious flagd nnd many
old comrades who fought and bled on this
spot. I unveil this monument In remem
brance of those who fell on the field of bat-
tre. This ceremony also takes place In the
presence of my youngest regiment and the
whole army , represented by the1 troops of
the Sixteenth corps. This Is almost the
only regiment which has not hitherto bcon
represented by a monument on this blood-
drenched field. Vet It had full claim to one.
Although It Is nearly related by history
to my house , whoso princes nnd kings U
has been called upon to train up , nnd
though It might rlghtry , therefore , bo con
sidered ns n family household regiment , yet
my grandfather did not hesitate for n mo
ment to Bncrlflco to the welfare of the
country troops BO dear to him. History
tells us how the regiment fought , bled nnd
fulfilled I In oath and how Its behavior
evoked the praise and Us sorrows the tears
of the great emperor. This regiment , with
mo ns Its senior comrade , today sets up a
memorial of stone to Us heroes , who rest
beneath the sward.
IJpNlcn of the Momiiiirnl.
The design of this monument differs from
that usual on battlefields. A mall-clad angel
leans In calm rcposo on a sword adorned
with the regiment's proud motto , "Semper
Tails. " I dcslro that the meaning of this
figure bo generally known. It stands on this
bloodstained Hold as a guardian of all the
bravo soldiers of both armies French and'
German who fell here. For the French
soldiers who found a glorious grave nt St.
Privat also fdught bravely and heroically
for their emperor nnd fatherland.
When our flags arc lowered In greeting before -
fore this bronze statue nnd flutter mourn
fully over the graves of our dear comrades ,
may they wave over the tombs of our foes
and whisper that wo think sorrowfully of
their bravo dead. With deep thanks nnd an
upward glance to tbo lord of hosts for the
guidance of those Ho eo mercifully vouch
safed to our great emperor , wo will recall
that the countless souls of nil who once
stood face to face In hot encounter will look
down upon us this day from whence .they
stand around the throne of the supreme
Judge , united In eternal peace.
Emperor William strongly emphasized the
words "all" nnd "both" In his utterances
when referring to "all" the brave soldiers
of "both" armies.

WASHINGTON , AUK. IS. The report ot
the commission appointed by the president In
1S971 from tho.marlne hospital Btaff to In
vestigate the lftturo of yellow fever was to
day made public by Surgeon General Wyman.
The committee was composed of Surgeon
Eufccho Wnslln and Passed Assistant Sur
geon Gcddlngs , both yellow fever experts.
The conclusions.of the committee nre sum-
mnrlzcd as f6lldwV. First That the micro
organism discovered by Prof. Giuseppe
Snnnrclll of"the University of Dologona ,
Italy , and by.hlta named "bacillus Ictcr-
oldcs" Is tliq'cauJo of yellow fever.
Second That y.ellow" fever Is naturally In-
fectlouV to ccrtnln Animals , the degree vary
ing with the species ; that in some rodents
local Infection fa ; very quickly followed by
the food Infection , nnd that , whllo In dogs
nhd rabblts there Is no evidence ot this sub-
sequ'ent invasion of the blood , monkeys
react tp the Infection the mine as man.
'Th ' rd Tliat Infection takes place by way
otfespiralory , trnct , the primary colonization
<
In this'trntt-gfvng ( < rise1 to the earlier man
ifestations of thedlfcoce. .
Fourth That In many cases ot the
disease , probably a majority , the primary
infection or colonization In the lungs 19 fol
lowed by "secondary Infection , " or n sccond-
Ary colonlzntldn of this organism In the
blood of the patient. This secondary Infec
tion may bo complicated by the co-Instan
taneous .passage o'f other organisms Into the
blood , or this complication may arise dur
ing the last hours of life.
Fifth -That' there Is no evidence to sup
port the theory advanced by Prof. Sannrclll
that this dlstosq -primarily a septicaemia ,
inasmuch ps cases do occur In which the
'bacillus icteroldcs cannot bo found In the
blood or organs In which it might bo de
posited thcre/rom. /
Sixth That th'cro exists no casual re
lationship between the bacillus "X" ot
Sternborg and the .Sicily disease and bacillus
"X" is frequently found In the Intestinal
contents of normal animals nnd of man , as
well as In the urine and the bronchial se
cretion.
Seventh That BO far as your commission
Is aware , the b'aclllus Icteroldcs has never
been found In any body other than one In
fected With yellow fever.
'
Eighth That thabaclllua ictcroldes is vary
suscicptlblo to the influences Injurious to
bacterial life , nnd that Its ready control by
the processes of disinfection , chemical and
mechanical , is assured.
Ninth That 'the ' bacillus Icterotdes - produces
duces In vitro , as well as In vita , a toxin
of the most marked potency ; and that from
our present knowledge there exists n reason
able possibility of the ultimate production
of nn nntl-serutn more potent than that of
Prof. Sanarelll.-

WASHINGTON ; Aug. IS. Surgeon Gen
eral Sternbers has received the report of
Major John R. Heft , chief surgeon of the
military department of Porto Rico , giving a
complete survey-of the conditions through
out the island from the standpoint of a
medical man and an officer. Dcslde giving
the principle features of the situation , Major
Hoff discusses the permanent military pol
icy towardr.Porlo : R1co and the need of
shaping all military action with that In
'
view. r ' w 7
"The a efltlonDt what will bo the mili
tary policy of -government toward this
Island , " says Major Hoff , "Is Interesting to
consider , for upon it will depend numerous
sanitary questions relating to the troops.
"Presumably the permanent garrison will
not exceed two Tmttcrles of artillery , a reg
iment , mounted or foot , and a battalion of
native troops , etc. , making a total strength
ot about 2,000.
"I trust we will not ba actuated by any
pcnnywlse , pound foolish policy.of trying to
make what we now have do for the future.
"Healthy habitations arc a sine qua non
to healthy living In the tropics nnd I hope
It will never be said of our .possessions
hero that they are the graveyards of United
States soldiers. Eu ? to avoid this possibil
ity , It would bo well to move away from
touch of elbow with a population which Is
physically degenerate. "
Major Heft gives in detail the condition ot
the hospitals turned over to the United
States by the Spaniards. He says of them :
"Tho sanitary arrangements were Spanish , "
which may be construed to mean that they
were everything unsanitary. He recom
mends the purchase of a site of the hospital
arPonce and the erection of now buildings.
Major Hoff pays a tribute to Miss Chandler
and Miss Boullgny for their services as
nurses. He says women nurses undoubtedly
have a place In military hospitals , as there
Is no nurse like a good woman nurse , add
ing a fervent official "God bless them. "
Major Hoff says considerable trouble bus re
sulted from distribution of supplies owing to
delays In shipment by the quartermaster's
department. Ho 'states that robbery was
rlfo and it seemed at one time as though
no box marked with a red cross ( as all medi
cal supplies are marked , In order to pass
without paying toll ) was safe.

Ever since last October n government com
mission has been nt Crow agency endeavorIng -
Ing to Ircnt with the Crow Indians for the
purchase of a large tract of their land on
the Crow reservation , which might be
thrown open for settlement.
The commission has had many things to
contend with , which have been against the
making of the treaty , but the Issue was
successfully met and accomplished last
Saturday afternoon to the satisfaction of the
Indians and commission.
Uetoro the treaty could bo made , the sig
natures of a majority of the male
adults on the reservation ( about 323) were
necessary. At this writing thcso have been
obtained nnd the signatures of all others
can and probably will be secured. All of
the lendlnc chiefs have signed , Including
Pretty Eagle , Plentlcous , Two Legglns , Day
light , Spotted Horse , Bell Hock , Campy ,
Spotted lUbblt , Medicine Trail , Hlg Medi
cine nnd Deaf Dull , and the lesser lights

tumbling' over each other to get Into the
band wagon.
The general terms of the treaty arc that
the government agrees to pay $1,150,000 for
1,100,000 acres of land. About $300,000 of this
sum goes Into Irrigation on the reservation ,
to finish Iho ditches now In course of con
struction and provide for tbclr maintenance.
About $50,000 will be used for fencing vari
ous parts of the reservation 'to protect the
Indian cattle herd , -while $150,000 goes for
the purchase of more cattle and $30,000 will
bo Used for the purchase of sheep.
Ulmumltloii of KundN.
About $25,000 of the purchase price will
go Into new school buildings , whllo $100,000
will be used for sundry purposes to Improve
the condition of the Indians. The balance
of the money will be placed In the treas
ury of the United States to the credit of
the tribe , drawing 4 per cent Interest , and
a $10 annual cash per capita payment \fl\\ \ \
bo made the Indians , In addition to the $12
annual per capita payment that they now
receive.
Thus It will be seen that the treaty Is an
excellent ono for the Indians. They will be
paid fpr their lands and the wise provision
Is made that a portion of the proceeds of the
sale will go to better their condition.
They will still have some 2,000,000 , acres
of land left on the reservation , or about
1,000 acres for every buck , squaw and child
In the tribe.
The treaty , of course , must be ratified by-
congress , either by special act or an amend
ment to the regular Indian appropriation
bill. The ratification can be sooner accomp
lished by n special act , as the appropriation
bills are generally not passed until near the
close of the session , which would delay Its
approval , but the ratification Is sure to
follow.
The land coded by the treaty , as stated
above , comprises about 1,100,000 acres. The
boundary line starts at the northeast corner
of thi military reservation , which Is three
miles north of Fort Ouster , and runs cast
to the eastern boundary of the reservation ,
on the Ouster county line ; then , starting
front the southwest corner of the military
'reservation , or three miles , south of Fort
Ouster , the line runs west nearly to Pryor
Creek , thence north -to Huntley , the northern
boundary being the base line that passes
through Billings. This throws open ill the
valley of the Yellowstone and nil that of the
Dig Horn river north of Fort Ouster , adding
to Yellowstone country the territory lying
west of the Dig Horn.

I.VCEIISOI.L.'S POLIC13 FIUISMIS.
Had Them All Over the Country nnd
Ther Helped Him.
"Tho late Colonel Ilobort O. Ingersoll prob
ably stood higher In police and detectlvo
circles than any public man ot the present
day , " observed a visiting detective officer
to a Washington Star man , "and It all came
nbout by the address ho delivered over the
grave of a detective's child In this city.
That address touched them all , whether they
concurred In his religious doctrine or want
of it that mode up the greater part of the
addresses or not , and there was nothing that
they could do for him that they did not.
Of all the lecturers traveling throughout
ithls country bo was regarded as specially
the friend of the policeman , and this assist
ance from the hundreds of thousands of
policemen and detectives turned many a big
bag of money Into Ills receipts. In many
cities howas taken In charge by the police
on his arrival and helped In every way until
ho loft. I remember on ono occasion he lec
tured in a city In which I was located. It
was in tbo winter time and he discovered
as ho was leaving the theater that his over
coat bad been stolen. He informed the
police officers at the theater ot the loss of
the coat and asked their assistance in recov
ering it. He was assured that the coat would
be recovered by the tlmo be needed U the
next morning if there was anything that
could bo done by the pollen , and in the
meantime an overcoat was borrowed for
him to wear to bis hotel. It was In a big
city , where there were a largo number of
thieves. The robbery was reported to police
headquarters and a special consultation
held. Tbo cblof of police gave orders that
the coat bad to bo recovered by the next
morning , even If It was nece&sary to lock up
every thief In the city. Orders were Bent
to all the precincts In the city to arrest
every thief that was known and hold them
until further notice. Fly 1 o'clock that
night there were over 100 thieves under
arrest. They were told of the robbery and
were Informed that they would 'be ' held un
der arrest until the coat caroe back. All
of them were allowed to communicate freely
with their associates , police and detective
officers carrying their messages out , By
3 o'clock In tbo morning each thief had on an
average three associates engaged in the
hunt for Colonel IngersoU'i coat and tome
of them as many as a dozen. The result
of the several hundred engaged looking for
tbo stolen coat wa tbat by 5 o'clock that
morning It wan 'turned up * by ono ot the

belonged , He picked it up near the door of
the theater , where it hod been carelessly
left by the stage manager. The coat was
handed to 'Colone.1 Bob' before he had break
fast. It was rather an outrageous thing to
do ns far as personal liberty and rights are
concerned , but It showed how hard the
police could work when they wanted to help
out a friend. The police of that city re
garded it as a reflection on them that
Colonel Ingcrsoll was robbed of his coat nnd
were determined to square themselves In his
favor regardless of the consequences. "
