Jerry Porter May Be the Repub- licean Candidate for Congress. What Mr. Porter Thinks of the Is- sues That Now Confront the American People. There has been considerable inter- est among politicians and the people as to who the entries would be in the congressional race this fall in the First district. The Bryan 16 to 1 democratic and populistic candidates are now in the field. Hon. W. M. Reed, of Ben- ton, may make the race. A reporter of the Sun reaently met Mr. Jerry M. Porter, who is, per- haps, the best known young republi- can in Wesiern Kentucky, and who has been frequently mentioned as the probable republican candidate. In answer to the question as to whether he would be a candidate for the re- publican nomination, Mr, Porter said “Yes, Lam a candidate for con- gress, subject to the action of the re publican party on these conditiors only: Wirst. If there be no othe |announced candidate, es I do ro. want to he in the way of the ambi- tions of any other republican in the district. Second. If by unanimous endorsement of the district commit- tee or convention.’* In regard to the isswes that are to- day before the people, Mr. Porter said: “1 believe,in view of the lines being drawn in the coming congressional election that there is special duty at our door, for the republican party together with al! other patriotic citi- jens to perform in order that « wise, problem of war on its hands, shall be supported, defended, and vindicated, and it would give me pleasure to champion this cause, even in per- sonal defeat, if need be. If only looking to the good I may do for the young and rising generation as my reward. “+I believe that among the highest duties of any patriotic American citi- zen in time ofgwar—especially if be remains at home while our boys are in the field, is to ‘hold up the hands’’ of the administration in all of its efforts and fearful duties fear- lessly and patriotically, spreading the NO EXAMINING TRIAL] MUST EXPLAIN. @| William Moore Goes Bick to|Germany ‘Vi!l Be Asked to Ex- Jail—Waived Exam ination. | i {Several Other Cases Tried Before Judge Sanders This Morning. William Moore, charged with ar-| son, having confessed to burning Mr. R. S. Barnett’s grocery, was arraigned before Judge Sanders this morning, and waived examination, being held to answer in the sum of $600. In default of bond, he was @| remanded to jail. Moore was unconcerned and in- different. It is now known that be invended to burn several other houses but did not have time. There is much indignation against him, and it was reported last night that people of Mechanicsburg would make an effort to hang him. There was no founda- tion for such a rumor, however. He is not believed by Marshal Collins to be in the least cra: A case against Van Hawkins, for obstructing the passage way at the Union depot, was heard and left open. He is a colored express driver. Will Coleman, colored, charged with stealing « pistol, was held to answer, and went to jail in default of bond. Joe Price, colored, for a breavh of the peace, was fineel $1 and costs. George Wright, colored charged with breaking a picture frame over his wife’s head, was fined $10 and costs. Willis Mount, for breach of the peace, was fined $:} and costs. WORSE MISCHIEF. Itis Fortunate That Will Moore Overslept Himself. It is extremely fortunate that Will Moore, now in jail for arson, took as many drinks as he did the night he set fire to Mr. S. R, Barnett’s house in Mechanicsburg. He fully intend- ed to burn the property of several of the residents of the burg, and now admits it, and only failed because he did not get up early enough. There was no fire protection up there on that night, all the hose and the fire apparatus being down towa at the fre on Broadway. 1t is prob- able that the loss would have been great had Moore not overslept him- self. He bas since is arrest expressed great sorrow that the house of Mr. Wilson was burned. Mr. Wilson 1s one of his friends, and he says he had no desire to do hin: harm. Mr. Barnett has been left witheut anything by the youth's perfidy. His property and "stock were both total losses to him ETTIRELY REGOVERED. Dr. P. H.

Administration Is Ur paring to Follow Up the Advantage — | Gained by Dewey | Washington, July 1).—The ad-| | ministration is prepariug to follow up the advantage gained by Rear | Admiral Dewey in successfully re pelling what was probably the initia tive step of German interference in the Philippines. It wants definite knowledge of the exact position of the Berlin govern- ment with reference to the Philippine question and the effort by the Ger- man warship Irene to prevent the operations of the insurgents aguinst the Spanish forces at Subic bay will in all probability be the lever em- ployed to pry into Emperor Will- im’s confiden A copy of Rear Admiral Dewey’s dispatch relating to the Irene’s strange behavior was laid before the president by Secretary Long and Secretary Day, who was subsequently acquainted with its con- tents, took part in the discussion which followed As a result of the discussion which followed the receipt of the dispatch there is a strong probability that the Berlin government will be officially informed of the incident with a view to obtaining from it an explanation of the peculiar conduct of the Ger- mancommander. Germany has been well aware that the United States did not look with favor upon the as- sembling of such a strong squadron as she now has located in the Philip- pines, although no formal protest has been made, and it is not proposed to officially call attention to this mat- ter. | The authorities admitted that the retention of five German warships in the waters of the Philippines is most irr! ing, ‘*The Irene incident,’’ continued an official, ‘‘is an indica- tion of Germany’s intention. Subic bay is a magnificent harbor just to} the northward of Manila bay. You will recall that Rear Admiral Dewey expected to find Admiral Montijo’s ships at that point and explored the bay before proceeding to Manila. Its possession undoubtedly would be wel- comed by the German goverrment. The squadron may not be acting un- der direct orders from Berlin, but the commanders of the vessels under- stand the desire of their government to extend its colonial possessions. “Had Rear Admiral Dewey not acted as promptly as he did I have no doubt the Germans would have considered the provedure of the Irene as a precedent upon which to base further action, Toa certain extent the insurgents are allies of the United States. “The situation would be the same if aGerman warship should have prevented the operations of the Cu- bans against the Spanish troops at Santiago de Cuba before the Ameri- can troops arrived, Undoubtedly the commander of the Irene will de- clare that he acted for humanit: reasons, but the matter is one that must be inquired into by the United States, otherwise the Berlin govern- ment may think that we do not fully THE WEATHER— Parly Cloudy Tonight and Sunday.
