Bryan Outlined in Writing the Course to Be Pursued by Delegates | to the Sioux Falls Convention. FIEREE Spectal Dispatch to The | OMAHA, May 13.—Returned delegates to he Sioux Fa convention do not hesi- tate to discuss the inside workings of the Populist steering committee. Some of | them are talking too much, perhaps. Asis well known, the Nebraska delegation split on the question of nominating a candidats | for second place, and hence one faction is | sore at the action of the other. The Omaha Bee will say editorially: 1 The men who were recognized as the Bryan | Heutenants in the Sioux Falls gathering wera | | outspoken in declaring their convictions that | i | ! | i i Towne's nomination will not be indorsed at Kansas City. That was before the nomination was made and while they were laboring to pre- vent it in compiiance with the plans mapped out by Mr. Bryan. The delegates who were In- formed of the wishes of Mr. Bryan, in order that they might carry the greatest possible weight, had taken the precaution to secure m in Bryan's own handwriting. The writ- slips laid down Mr. Bryan's ideas of what te: it would be best for the convention to do in the form of | this order: First—Refer the nomination of Vice Presi- nt to a _committee for conference with simi- s from the Democratic and Sil- | an conventions, with power to ap- | three distinct plans preferred in PP S S D S S A S Select several mames for submission | crats and Silver Republicans and ther person equally committed | inciples, minate some man who will with- draw from the Populist ticket if the Kansas City Convention declines to indorse him. The opinion is quite common that the latter | plan_prevailed after all, and that It is under- | stood that Towne's nomination was simply a compromise. It was stated by many of the Qelegates, though mever in open convention, that Towne will get out of the way if the other two conventions do not indorse him. It was freely and openly stated, however, by Bryan leaders, both before and after Towne's nom- ination, that the Democrats at Kansas City will never indorse him. And some of the Bryan lieutenants based their opposition to his nomination upon the assertion that he is {too good a man to be sacrificed to the Vice ‘ Presidency AR e ) MAY NOT RUN. | Social Dsmocmti Force Job Harriman Off Their Ticket. | INDIANAPOLIS, May 13.—Hugo Miller | to-day announced that by a referendum vote of 1313 to 931 Social Democrats have defeated the proposed amalgamation with the so-called “kangaroo” branch of the Social Labor party, and that this result will force Job Harpiman off the Socialist | Democratic ticket for Vice President. In January, in Rochester, N. Y., Harriman vas nominated for President’ He now| lives in California. His running mate was Max Hays of Cleveland, Ohfo. At the | | convention of the Social Democrats held | | in Indianapolis two months ago Eugene | | V. Debs was nominated for President and | Harriman made his running mate. The | | nomination had to be approved by a ref- | | erendum vote, and this vote carried with |1t not only the acceotance of Harriman |as a _candidate. but an amalgamation of | the Social Democrats and the ‘kanga- roos.” LOVETT CASTS A FLY f A GREAT DISTANCE | Sends Delicate Lure One Hundred and Twenty-Two Feet at Stow Lake.

Special Correspondence of The Call. 1 ALL HEADQUARTERS, WELL- INGTON HOTEL, WASHING- TON, May S%.—Some weeks ago | Corporal Mygatt of Company H, | Twenty-third Infantry, U. S. A, writing from Bongao. Philippine Islands, to his sister in Brooklyn, gave a graphic | account of the killing of ten native pris- | oners by the men of his company by the order of thelr captain, Sidney A. Cloman. g—o—o+o+¢+e+e+@—om B R R 1 CAPT. SIDNEY A. CLOMAN, G e e b et eseseire® According to Mygatt, the captain’s order was: “Take them out to work. We need wood for our fire. Do not let them es- cape.” The letter described how thirty Amerl- can soldiers with loaded rifies formed the detall that carried the priséners out to “work.” The prisoners were taken to a place where wood was already cut. There they were huddled together. One of the soldiers sprang forward and shouted: “I claim the first shot.” “You deserve it,” was the answer. Instantly his Krag-Jorgensen, filled with bullets, began belching them into the crowd of unarmed natives, He had filled the magazine of his rifl: with cartridges filed at the end so thev would split and spread upon striking the body. At the first crack of this soldier’s gun the rifles of twenty-nine other men in the detall began to speak, and, acording to Mygatt's narrative, not one of the Filipinos was left alive. DR Captain Cloman's report gives a very full account of the affair, except the de- tails of the killing, which are supplied from Mygatt's letters, The report, from | which some extracts are given below, is | dated Bongao, Philippine Islands, Febru- | ary 2, 1900, and says that on January 26 a party consisting of Sergeant Egbert V. de ‘Wolfe, Corporal Leonard J. Mygatt, Pri- vates Webster F. Gibbons, Willlam T. Carter and John A. Greathouse, all of Company H, Twenty-third Infantry, left the post on & seven days’ leave in a sm;ll the lake on Tawi-Tawi and hunting. Several parties of soldlers had preyious- 1y visited and hunted over the lower part of the island and In every case had ex- perlenced very friendly treatment at the hands of the natives, many of whom had visited the post at Bongao in return. Treachery of the Natives. By Sunday morning the party had ar- rived at the town of Billmbing, on an isl- and of the same name, some three miles trom Tawi-Tawi, and were hospitably en- tertained. None of their chiefs being présent, however, toward night the men camped on a small uninhabited island _eight miles from Bilimbing. Before dark they noticed two large proas, or native boats, about a mile off shore. Next morn- ing ten natives landed and came to the camp. Later, followed by the two praus, the soldiers proceeded on to Tawi-Tawi, land- ed and pitched camp near the beach. The natives soon joined and assisted them_ in their work. About 6 p. m. Corporal My- gatt undressed and, leaving the other four Ten playing whist in the middle of the tent with the natives clustered around | looking on, went down to the beach to bathe, The natives had no weapons vis- ible, but as it turned out, each one had a hatéhet or a small bolo, used for cutting wo Soon after reaching the beach Mygatt heard screaming and then two shots, and at once started back for the camp. In the tent the game had continued for about five minutes after the corporal’s departure, when the native standing be- hind Sergeant de Wolfe suddenly pulleq i a parang from behind him and struck the sergeant on the neck, nearly severing the head from the body and Killing him at once. At almost the same time Pri- vate Gibbons was struck on the side of the neck and head, making a hole through the skull five inches long, through which the brain oozed, and Private Greathouse was struck on the neck, the parang sev- ering the external carotid artery and ex- posing the internal artery and spine. The parang (which I now have) is badly nick- ed and dulled, or the head would have been completely severed. The edge of the parang meant for Private Carter's neck was turned by the tent canvas, and only staggered him, but at almost the same time another Moro struck him a terrible blow on the head with the oar he had made. He staggered toward his gun, but another native sunk a hatchet deep into his back, injuring his spine. He then ran to the cook fire, about twenty yards distant for the ax, but by the time he had reached it and turned the Moros had all disappeared but the three who were chopping Private Gibbons, and these ran before he could reach them. Gibbons’ Awful Death. In the meantime Private Gibbons had reached his gun and fired a shot, but, being virtually blind and staggering, it was without effect, and then began a ter- rible struggle for his gun. Private Gib- bons could do little more than struggle bare handed for his possession, while tne three natives literally chopped him until he was helpless, when one of them got possessfon of the gun and shot him beicw e e tives then ran for their boats and pushed off, taking with them three rifles, one revolver and four belts, with the cart- ridges. orporal Mygatt returned from the. lfi;’;cf he met Private Greathousa in the woods carrying a gun with one hand and holding his head on straight with the other. Shortly afterward Private arter appeared, und then began a terribl2 night SE iabor. The whereabouts of the na- tives or their intentions wers uniknown and the night was very dark. Soop after going in camp the p!ui had been pulled from the bottom of the boat, and she was allowed to fill with water for the ul ot cleaning her, and she had to iled out. The dead sergeant and Private Gibbons had to be carried through the woods to the boat flnd they were more than thirty miles from friends or help, with one man to sail the boat and take care of the three wounded. They reached this port at 8 o’clock the next mornin - jead men,” continues Captain Cloman's ?q‘:‘on.

During the afternoon I had arrested eleven men on suspicion and they were confined in the fort, where we passed the night, with proper guards over the boats and the tow: “During the night I examined the pris- oners and finally two of them confessed knowledge of the matter and gave me a list of eight names and, of course, I knew strc into derers escape in the villagers and my Bonog and got them about six m away. all told the story of the murder share each man took in it to the minut- est details, their reasons for it, etc. “One of the murderers was then sent with a part eapons, and the other nine h a guard to get wood and ter for cooking purposes. In a short time I heard some firing. 1 sent a detail to investigate this, and they re- turned with the news that soon aftes leaving the fort the prisoners had made an ill-advised attempt to escape, but for- tunately ail had been killed. I sent the hospital steward, who had accompanied the expedition, to treat the wounded if any, but they were all dead when he reached the spot.
