S g WASHINGTON, March 27.—Secretary Root took a step long contemplated in the administration of the Philippines by military division to be knm as “the | division of the Pacific,” embracing all | of the Philippine archipelago. The divis- | fon in turn is to be divided into four mili-! tary cepartments as follows: The Do-! rtment of Northern Luzon, Generai Bates: the Department of (he! Viscayas, commanded by General Hughes, | and the Department of Mindanao and ! Jolo, commanded by General Kobbe. Major General Otis will retain the su-| preme command over these departments ! as dlvision commander, occupying toward | them a position corresponding closely to :gu occupied by General Miles to military departments in the United States. It is sald at the War Department se of the new order of things is to General Otis of many minor details incident to the administra- tion of the islands, leaving him at liberty | to devote more time to large gq of policy and civil 'administration.

Special Dispatch to the Call. STOCKTON, March 27.—Andrew Davis, a perfectly sane man, was yester- day incarcerated in the asylum in mistake for Henry C. Davis, his brother. The latter has been confined for some time in the Pacific Hospital. Lately he became so violent that it was decided to place him in the State asylum. Andrew Davis came down from Copperopolis to superintend the commitment of his brother. Andrew Davis called at the Sheriff’s office yesterday to accompany the deputy who was to transfer his brother. Deputy Long handed the commit- ment to Deputy MeCulloch, with the remark: ““That gentleman will accompany you.” McCulloch supposed that Andrew Davis was the insane man, and so started with him for the asylum. Mr. Davis thought they were on their way to the Pacific Hospital, and so he said nothing., not even when they em- tered the asylum and the Deputy Sheriff handed over the commitment. An attendant satd, “Follow me,” and Mr. Davis was conducted to a ward. Then he realized the mistake, but it was several hours before he could make ‘ the authorities believe that he was a sane man. i @30 sieisivisie ieiedeire iedete bedeleiei eteiteteded@ MISS HORLOCKER SAID INEGRO MURDERER IS TO BE A DEGENERATE LYNCHED BY A MOB Dr. Cromwell Expresses the Opinion Taken From the Custody of the Sher- That She Inherited a Discased iff While En Route to the Court Mind. for the Prisoner’s Trial.
