There Is, therefore, uvcry prospect that tho Island of Samar will he tho theater of active hostili ties for sorao time to come, as It Is tho pur pose of General Chaffco to teach tho rebel lious Inhabitants n lesson and forco them to respect tho power and sovereignty of tho United States.

The artists meet In the upper rooms of one of the best known of Herlln'n coffee houses, acrobat?, Jugglers, wlro ropo daucers, wise pig and dog men, girls with trained pigeons, serpcutlne and Bklrt dancers, clowns, fancy riders, funny men, lightning nrtlsts and all the rest of them, nbout tho motllest crowd to bo seen In llerlln, aged and young, pretty and plain, respectable an. I tho other sort. They sit at tho little tables, drink coffee, beer and absinthe and those of them who have been abroad call for American drinks. The managers of variety theaters coma around about 1 or f o'clock In the after noon and make engagements, which oro scaled tihually with a nip of brandy or a glass of beer. A flourishing industry among these peoplo Is thn salo and barter of mock Jewelry. For $2 a variety woman can havo a set of rubles or emeralds which a rouutcss might nvy. They shlno with an almost unnatural brilliancy. Tho rareful salesman throws his uecklcss over the neck of an Intending purchaser and It Is usually Irresistible.

Fear of smallpox becoming cpl domic on thn Indian rescrvotlons during tho winter Is disturbing the Indlun bureau, For a numbor of years tho Indian approprl ntlon bill has carried an item npproprint ing a certain sum of money for tho sup nrosslon of tho disease, but lately th amount appropriated has been too small to cover' tho country containing tho In dlan reservations and In many eases direct appropriation has been made for In dividual reservations. Commissioner Jones, who has Just re turned from his vacation, SRld today that in his travels ho had learned thero Is great fear of a smallpox epidemic among tho Indians and that tho physicians looked to this matter with dread. In view of tho lightness of tho attacks In tho past tew J years. With this In mind tho Indian bureau has prepared a series of Instructions to nil tho Indian ogents how to handlo tho con tagion should It break out and more espe cially how to prevent Its breaking out by vaccination, which Is urged upon every Indian. In this connection a report comes from Pender that John Fox, ono of tho healthiest, most robust ludlams in the tribe, died Wednesday morning from smallpox and that a deplorable condition exists In tho trlbo In regard to smallpox. Tho dlscaso has spread until It Is all through tho tribe. It Is hard to estlmato the exact number that have had It and aro till having It,, as numerous cases wero not reported to the physician. Had tho first cases been strictly quarantined tho dlseuso might havo been checked, but tho quarantine was lax.

The trial here of sixty young Poles for belong ing to a secret toclety revealed a stato of affairs anything but pleasant for tho Ger man authorities in chargo of this portion of the empire. Tho Polish specking parts of Germany are honeycombed with secret societies, which, under tho gulso of pursu ing literary and scientific objects, aro actu ally centers of disaffection and dlsloyulty. Prussian Poland Is becoming more and moro tho Ireland of Germany, and thero cannot be any doubt that the Poles of Ger many will use Germany's futuro necessi ties for their uatloual purposes.

Tho most lively topics of the week here have been the question of the return of tho Chlueso astronomical Instruments taken from Pekln, the proposed crossing of tho Untcr den Mnden by uu electric rallioad, the reported protest of tho Hungarian premier, Koloman dc Szell, against tho proposed German tariff and the cruiser Gazcllo Incident. The North German Oazctto this evening says olllclally tbnt the Gazcllo affair has been investigated, that parts of ono of tho cutis uro missing, that a threatening letter wan posted and that thcie acts wero prob ably committed by somebody familiar with quick-firing guns. One eullor Is under examination. The sccrctlvcness of the officials on tho subject is condemned and tho natural result Is that there has been considerable! exagger ation. tiuotea (lie Tlirent. One phper claims thero was a mutiny on board tho vesvel, which Is commanded by Captain Neltzkc, a wevoro disciplinarian. Tho sailors who had served In China were called upon to perform tho strictest service and they complained that their food was not satisfactory. Tho captain one day found a letter lu his cabin requesting that a chnngo bo raado and notifying hlra that otherwise he would be thrown overboard. An Inscription ou tho door rend: "Neltke, take carol Hemember tho Kro slgk case!" Tho Krosigk case referred to Is that of Captain von Kronlgk of tho German cav alry, who was mysteriously shot and killed lu a riding school In January last, as n re sult of which two noncommissioned ofllcers wero tried on tho chargo of murder. They were acquitted, but were subsequently tried again and one of them, Marten, was con demned to death. The moderate newspapers ask for tho publication of all tho details connected with tho alleged mutiny. A'Hlmnie'd of the ConlUcallnn. Tho wholo press practically agrees that tho astronomical instruments wero illo gully carried off. Fven the Krouzo 55el- tung criticises the nctlon of tho Germans as follows: "Tho Instruments wero mani festly taken unlawfully. The perpetrators undoubtedly acted In good faith, but that does not settle the affair. Tho least that can bo done Is to deduct tho vulun of tho Instruments from the Chinese Indemnity." Thn statement mado some three weeks ago that thn Instruments were purchased and not loaned has not been officially refuted. The Ncusto Nachrichtcn says It Is not sufficient to place tho Instruments at tho disposal of the Chinese and pro posed to offer to transport them back to China and replace them ot Germany's ex pense on the spots from which they were taken, If China Is unwilling to do so, and deduct the amount from the Indemnity. Tho Vorwaerts triumphantly exclaims that China Intends to leave tho Illegally acquired goods in Germany as a routlnual rcmembranco of how Germany respects In ternational law and says that tho honor of Germany demands that tho Instruments be taken back to China. Tho Ilerliner Zeltung refers to the un pleasantness of seeing the Instruments placed near the historic windmill, which reminds peoplo of tho best traditions of Prussian Justice. General satisfaction is expressed at tho reports that Prlnco Chlng hns given as surances that the dowugor empress and the empersr agreo as to tho ncccosity for a change in tho Chinese system of govern ment and that reform edicts will bo en forced ipon the return of the court.

General Alger says he has no criticism to offer. Hut ho does crltlclso tho publication of it, saying that It was ono of tho most unfortunato aud regrettnblo incidents of tho war. General Alger rovlows at length tho dif ferences between General Shatter and Ad miral Sampson and quotes many official let ters. Ho concludes this chapter Jn these words: "It Is difficult to account for Admiral Sampson's seeming nttltudo toward tha army during the operations before Santiago, as well as to excuse htm for his contradic tory statements subsequently made In his official report. After tho 3d of July tho ad miral's conduct may bo duo to the keen disappointment resulting from his non-par-tlcipatlou In the engagement with Cervera'a squadron.

Up to the 2lBt of December, 1S9S, this commission had taken testimony tn seventeen towns and cities nnd in many different camps, granting, wherever It went, to tho citizens, soldiers or ex-soldlers ou opportunity to appear for complaint or testimony of any kind re garding the conduct of tho war. The com mission visited numerous camps, in which there still wero ninny thousands of sol diers, both regulars and volunteers, who wcio Invited to glvo their evidence with out regard to rank or service.

'General Miles seemed to bo pleased with tho notoriety which his etartllng statement beforo tho commlsslou nnd his subsequent newspaper Interview gave him, for again on tho 31st ot March, 1SW, In New York City he published through representatives of tho Arsoclated Press and of a metro politan paper additional charges.

NKW YORK, Oct. r,. Shamrock II, In tow of tho lug James Ijiwrence, left tta mooring buoy fn Sandy Hook bay at 11:15 this morn- lug, bound for the Erie basin, where It nr rlvcd at noon. Tho tug then went back for the tender Porto Rico nnd towed It to th Mimn place. Tho yacht's mainsail was un bent and It will probably bo dismantled at once. After Sir Thomas Llpton, accompanied by Mr. Jamcnon aud Mr. Watson, had paid u farewell visit to Colonel llurbauk and hi family nt the military post ou Sandy Hook Erln'ii nnrhor was hovo up ami that yacht steamed dlroct to New York. It was saluted by nit the outgoing steamships ou Its way up thn harbor ind anchored off tho foot ot West Thirty-fourth street at 3 p. m. WIIIIiik to l?chniiKC frrirra. Whan asked If It was truo that ho was willing to put the captain mid crew of Shamrock on board Columbia nnd allow that yacht's crew to handle Shamrock In a series of races Sir Thomas said: Yes, 1 should be willing to do It If It Is lu tho interest of sport and provided, of courso, tho other sldo is willing." Thero will, however, be no such race Monday next, ns both the yachts aro being stripped and could not bo put In trim again for weeks. Secretary Oddlo of the New York Yacht club said that such a race might create bad feeling, especially If Shamrock would win. Commodore Knne said the lden was preposterous. Speaking of his futuro plans Sir Thomas said ho was undecided ns yet nbout his coming engagements, but that ho would go direct to tho Waldorf-Astoria hotel about Monday and that Tuesday evening he would attend n dinner at the New York Yacht club. He will probably visit Chi cago about a week hence. Tho date Is not yet fixed. Muckny I'rrdleta Spiinir Itnee. Dr. F. Reid Maekay of Erin said thert whs every reason to bcllevo that Shamrock will be laid up In New York this winter and that In tho spring or next summer it will be raced against Columbia, Constitu tion or any other ninety-footer. "For," said he, "wo believe that It Is actually a faster boat than Columbia nnd can beat it if It is raced again under different conditions." The following letter, which explains itself, was sent today: NEW YORK YACHT CLUH, Oct. 5. 1901. Dear Sir: Wo have to Inform you Unit Columbia hns won threo out of live rnre from Shamrock II.

ON REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE SAYS SHAMROCK BEATS HOPE "If wc aro to bcllevo written evidence to tho contrary It does not appear that General Miles was even honest In making his dilatory charges that the tinned beet was Issued as "tho protenso of an experi ment" and that It was not a part of tho ration. On Juno 17, 189S, his most confi dential staff officer signed a letter, "by direction of the major general command ing tho army," Instructing the depot com mlebury at Tampa lo furnish to General Nunoi 10,i 11 pounds of canned roast beef, to bo Issued from the subsistence stores at tho army. If we aro to accept tho read ing of this letter ns correct It proves that General Miles knew that canned fresh beef was a part of tho ration, that ho know there was a largo quantity of It at Tampa for Issue to tho troops and that ho bo fr approved of Its use as to direct that the ration be furnished Id Jarge quuutltlcs to our alllci."
