MILES PREPARES FOR DEPARTURE Will Sail for Philippines on the Transport Thomas. General Regards the Trip Merely as a Visit to the Army. Spectal ( ity CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—Génegal Miles returned to Washington this morn- ing after attending the meeting of the Board of Ordnance and Fortification at Sandy Hook, making a flying trip to West Point yesterday. From now until Sep- tember 3 he wiil be a busy man, for that is the date he has set to depart from ‘Washington for his trip to the Philip- pines, where he will “visit the army.”| That is the term he applies to the jour- . Before he goes he will submit his annual report to the Secretary of War, Speaking of his plans to-day, General es said: regard the trip merely as a visit to the army there. It may be called an in- spection tour, and I will make it a point to visit every army camp in the islands, although, as I have said, this matter has not yet been determined.” General Miles expressed regret at the fact that he would not be able to attend the G. A. R. encampment in this city the first week in October. 5 “It will probably be the last time,” he| said, “that the comrades of *61—this Brmyl‘ which can never be recruited—wiil hold their reunion in the national capital. While I cannot be here in the flesh, I will | be in spirit, and I regret exceedingly that | it is impossible for me to attend the en-| campment. General Miles and his party, which will cons of himself and Mrs. Miles and his aids, Colonel Whitney and Colonel | p , will leave Washington on Septem- ber 3 for San Francisco, where they will sail for the Philippines on the transport Thomas on September 16. A stop of sev- eral days will be made in Chicago. Mrs. Miles will, in all probability, accompany her husband to the Philippines, but at any rate will go as far as San Francisco. | General Miles’ visit in the archipelago will last from thirty to sixty days, and; inasmuch as the journey each way to Manila consumes practically a month he will be absent from Washington nearly four months.

LONDON, Aug. 25.—Discussing Sir Thomas Lipton’s forthcoming challenge for the America’s cup, which will be dis- patched in September, the Yachting ‘World remarks: “To give the holders of the cup ionger warning would be to pre- sent them with additional opportunities for preparing their defense.” Then, con- firming the press dispatches regarding Sir Thomas Lipton’s preparations, the Yacht- ing World says: “When the challenge is officially announced it will surprise most people to find how far forward the ar- rangements really are.” The Yachting World concludes jts com- ment as follow. Now that he has en- tered his third year of work for the America’s cup honors, Sir Thomas may proceed assured that all sportsmen in Great Britain are with him.” 0il Companies Will Consolidate.

Gardners Point has been considered a weak spot by the.army men, and one liable to be attacked by the navy. There is no fort at that point, and it is guarded by only two dismounted guns. The submarine mine boat Dime is darting about in that vicinity, which leads to the belief that the passage of the North Atlantic squadron will be inter- rupted by mines. Colonel Davis, commanding the New London district, with headquarters at Fort Wright, Fishers Island, and Major General MacArthur and other officers of high rank in the army, spent most of the day in_consultation. NEWPORT, R I, Aug. 25 — After months of preparation the final war maneuvers by an army of defense against an enemy made up of a large number of ships of the navy will begin at midnight on Sunday. The preliminary work will practicglly end at midnight on Friday, and two days will be allowed the attack- ing fleet and the army of defense to get into position. In order to decide which side wins the imaginaryy contest, which will go through next weck, a large number of umpires and observers have been assigned to the different forts and to the different vessels of the fleet, which will be commanded by Rear Admiral Higginson. Each vessel of the fleet will have a navy umpire and an army observer, while each fort will have an army umpire and a navy observer. The army to-day .established a signal and sezrchlight station near the Brenton Cove life-saving station. This is the only searchlight station that the army wiil have cutside of Newport harbor, on the east side of Narragansett Bay. L e o e 2 AEBEL FORCES 1N BAD PLIGHT Unable to Drive General Berti’s Troops From Agua Dulce, WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—Senor Con- cha, the Colombian Minister here, has received a cablegram from General Sala- var, Governor of the state of Panama, declaring that General Bertl, with the Colembian Government forces, is still in possession of Agua Dulce, and that the prospects are favorable for a mainte- nance of that situation. General Salavar says that the report of an imminent ca- pitulation to the rebels is unfounded. He also states that the rebels who are be- sieging him are in a sore plight because of.-thé untenable.condition «0f the terri- tory which theynow ogcupy Advices received from Colombia to-day state that the attacking force at Agua Dulce consists of practically all the rebels | on the isthmus, about 2500 in number, and | the Government troops who are holding out in the town number 2200. The Government forces are strongly in- trenched, and it is asserted that even without outside assistance they can hold Agua Dulce for at least ten or twelve | days, and possibly longer if food supplies | do not give outs MINISTER WU TING FANG TO STAY AT WASHINGTON Receives Official Information Indefi- nitely Postponing His Return to China. ‘WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—The inference to be drawn from a reference to Minister ‘Wu Ting Fang in a Victoria dispatch that his term at Washington has been extend- ed for another three years cannot be ex- plained by the officials of the Chinese le- gation here. The latest official informa- tion which the Minister has received was a communication from Peking indefinite- ly postponing his departure from Wash- ington. Wu's successor, Liang Ching, who is with the special coronation mis- sion headed by Prince Chun, is about due in China, and it is stated by the Chinese | officials here that he expects to return | to take up his new duties in Washing- | ton next spring. In that case Ministe; | Wu will not leave Washington until April { or May next. The usual term of a Chi- nese Minister at one post is three years. By May 1 next Minister Wu will have completed six years of official life at Washington. However, it is stated here that after a three years' time at one post no limit is fixed for a further stay.

DISTINGUISHED COMMANDERS OF FORCES ON LAND AND AT SEA WHO ARE TO SUPERVISE THE GAME OF WAR BETWEEN THE TRY 10 D00EE PAYING DUTIES Returning Tourists Mis- construe Treasury Ruling. WASHINGTON, @Aug. 28.—Secretary Shaw has issued a circular regarding the free entry of personal effects under the act of 1897, in which he says: It having been brought to the attention of the department that certain persons have sought to place a strained construction upon the department circular No. 48, under date of May 7, 1902, the following explanation thereof and supplemental instructions are hereby is- et The language employed in the circular re- ferred to is as follows: ‘Exception from duty will be allowed on wearing apparel, articles of personal adornment, toilet articles and such other personal effects of a value not exceeding $100 as are ordinarily purchased abroad by tourists, provided they are not intended for the use of other persons or for sale.’ ““There 1s no warrant in this language or in any ruling of the department that justifies the importation of cigars, soirituous,” vinous ov malt liquors in any other quantity or manner than piovided by law, nor is there anything in the circular to warrant the exemption of such merchandise from duty. The statute uses this language: “Wearing apparel, articles of per- sonal adornment, tollet articles and similar personal effects.’ For some years it was hela that ‘stmiiar perdonal effects,’ in order to be exempt, must be similar to ‘wearing apparel,’ or simflar to ‘articles of personal adornment,” or similar to ‘toflet articles.’ The department still holds that exempt articles must in a sente be similar; that is, they must be of the same general class of articles as tourlsts ordi- narily purchase abroad. ““Tha difficulty, it will be seen, lies in apply- ing these rules in the light of the statute to particular cases, and it is the intention to vest the customs officers with some measure of dis- cretion. A dress pattern is certainly similar to a gown, wkile a bolt of dress goods is mer- chandise. Customs officers are exvected to the revenues of the country, are not expected to ad- minister the laws with castious and vexa- tious discriminations, ~Whenever circum- stances indicate that the returning tourist is atiempling to impose upon the Government, the maximum rale of duty should be coliected and then all questions involved can be deter- mined on avoe: The Secretary also issued instructions to the Collector of Customs at New York in the matter of reimported foreign goods, saying: I am in receiot of your letter of the 25th, calling attention to the department’s letter of August 7, 1802, relative to the reimportation of an automobile and suggesting that certain in- ‘dividuals are seeking to have the rule applied to merchandise. This was not the intention. The okbiect of the ruling is to relleve tourists from the second payment of duty on wearing apnarel, articles of personal adornment and other personal and house effects appropriate to their Journey. It must not be extended to mer- chandise. It is the intention of the department to NATIONAL BANKS FAVOR THE PLAN Will Issue Additional Circulation Notes if Necessary. WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—In view of rumors as to Secretary Shaw's plans for relieving the money market in the event of a possible stringency, the Secretary, who is in New York, to-day aythorized Assistant Secretary Ailes to make the following statement: The Secretary recently invited some of the larger national banks in the principal cities to order additional amounts of circulating notes to be printed. National banks are entitled to issue circulation to the full amount of their capital. The aggregate capital of national banks is $700,000,000, but the banks have out- standing only $58,000,000 of circulation, The Secretary has hoped to introduce an_element of elasticity Into the present system. His sug- gestions to the various banks In the larger cit- ies that they make preparations for additional circulation have met with very favorable re- sponse. It is not his intention that they should issue an additional circulation at all now, but only in case of actual necessity and emer- gency. With this in view these banks which have made arrangements to deposit States bonds circulation have sent in their orders and the Secretary has had all branches of the Treasury service busily engaged in expediting the prep- aration of the notes pending a possible emer- geney. ——— THE DAY’S DEAD, — George Douglas Brown.

REDUCES CLAIMS OF MISSIONARIES Chinese Indemnity Board Finds That They Are Exorbitant. Government Is Ready to Pay First Installment - to Boxer Victims. Speclal Dispatch to The Call CALL BUREAU, M0§ G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, Aug. 2—Out of 250 claims for damages sustained in the Boxer uprising by American missionaries sixty have been already passed on by the claims board of which Minister Conger, Secretary Bainridge, of the United States legation, and Consul Ragsdale, are mem- bers. These sixty claims aggregate about $800,000. The Department of State has ue- cided to at once begin payment. The first payment of the Chinese indemnity, amounting to about $480,000, received in July, will be put to this purpose. There has been great pressure brought to bear on the State Department by missionary ~societies “and individuals Wwhose claims have been aiready allowed, that they might be paid in full at the present time. Aecting” Solicitor Van Dyne of the State Department has rec- | ommended that payment of twenty-five per cent of each claim be made to each claimant immediately. By the time of the next payment, about six months hence, it is expected that enough more claims will have been ap- proved to consume all of the $480,000 now on hand. The exorbitant claims made by some missionaries soon after the Boxer uprising was quelled created great com- ment in the United States. The claims commission, however, adopted the policy of strictly scrutinizing every claim pre- sented, with the result that nearly all of them have been reduced. It is expected that the total of claims allowed by the commission will amount to about $2,500,000. PRESIDENT DIAZS MANY DECORATIONS Ribbons and Medals Conferred by Ten Nations Besides Mexican Honors. A United States publication, with the best of intentions, has endeavored to give a list of the decorations that have been conferred upon President Diaz, Sev- eral inaccuracies occurred in the list as published, The following is a correct enumeration of the crosses, medals, rib- bons and ‘‘cordones” bestowed upon the supreme magistrate, in his capacity as warrior and as statesman: France—Grand cross of the Légion of Honor. the Catholic,” of Spain—Of “Isabel “Carlos III" and of “Military Merit.” Portugal—Decoration of the “Towet” and the sword of valor, loyalty and merit. Italy—The crosses of San Mauficio and San Lazaro. Belgium—The “‘cordon” of Leopold. Vene: la—The decoration of the “Lib- ertador.” Prussia—Of the “Red Eagle.” Norway and Sweden—The sword of honor. Japan—Of the Chrysanthemum. Austria—Of St. Stephen. The President’s Federal decorations are the following: Espectal for the assault and capture of Puebla, April 2, 1867. The bar for the war of reform. Decoration for the battle of Pachuca. Decoration for the battle of Acultzingo. Decoration for the battle of Puebla, May 5, 1862. uDecoration for the war of the interven- on. The three decorations for “Constancy.” The President’s decorations from the States are: Guerrero and Puebla—For the war of the intervention.

Puebla—For the engagement of April 2, 1867.—Mexican World. ———— The Origin of the Term “Grog.” ““There are mot many .people Who know the origin of the word ‘grog,’ and there is | a less number who know that grop, as | grog, contains a very small percentage of | liquor. The origin of the term dates back | to the days of Admiral Vernon of the | British navy, who was prominent in the early part of the eighteenth century. His favorite clothing was a grogham, a fabric | of silk and mohair, hence he was called ‘Ola Grog.’” After he became a command- ing officer he adopted this method and manner: He ordered that whenever a saflor should be guilty of insubordination or misconduct for which a court-martial should be waived the delinquent be pun- ished by being made to take his liquor for a certain number of days diluted to seven parts of ‘water to one part of spir- its. Why, gentlemen, you can imagine that to a sailor there could be no punish- ment, except death, much more severe than 'this. Could you stand it yourself? From. that time the ‘grog ration’ was identifled as the well-watered liquor for punishment until the term became gener- ally applied to the gill of liquor served out regularly on board ship.’—New York Tribure, ———— There still flourishes at Dundee, Scot- land, a tree which was dedicated as a “tree of liberty” more than a century age, | during the ferment caused by the French PRESIDENT G0E3 TOHAY'S AOME New Hampshire’'s Arms Are Opened to Re- ceive Roosevelt. In the Excess of Welcome the People Cause a Most Dangerous Crush. NEWBURY, N. H., Aug. 28.—President Roosevelt to-night is the guest of Secre- tary of State Hay, whose summer home is situated a few miles from here, along the shores of Lake Sunapee. The Secre- tary and his daughters met the Presi- dent upon his arrival and joined with the assemblage in extending him a hearty welcome. The President delivered a brief ad- dress to the townspeople, in which he thanked them for their greeting. He then entered Secretary Hay’'s launch Nomad and steamed to Fells. New Hampshire's arms were open to- day in readiness to receive the President. Long before he was awake a committee representing the Governor bo: the train. The welcome they extended to him on behalf of the State was magnified lat- er in the day in small towns througn which the train passed, and at Nashua, Manchester, The Weirs and Concord, al- though the day was replete with the mis- carriage of arrangements. At The Weirs, where a Grand Army reunion was held, the people in the excess of their desire to accord the President a fitting recep- tion came near causing a crush which might have resulted disastrously. As it was, the President was for a time in the midst of a howling, surging mass, and was all but carried off his feet. So in- adequate were the police arrangements that the crowd had entire control of the situation, and much relief was expressed after the President, having viewed the veterans, was escorted into the hotel for luncheon. Here the carefully laid plans for his entertainment went astray, lunch- eon being finally served through the gal- lantry of the Governor’s staff, who turned in and acted as waiters. The President’s speech at the park where the veterans were gathered was most favorably received. As in the case of the Bangor speech, he admonished his hearers to remain still and not to shove. A great crush occurred at Concord as the train was pulling out and for a time it was feared people would be hurt. At Manchester the President said: It is about one hundred and twenty-five years ago that Molly Stark's husband had a sawmlll here, and it strikes me you are a good repre- sentative of Stark, Major Sullivan. He had his sawmill here, but when the country called to arms he was going to do his duty or Molly Stark was going to be a widow and those like you, who have done their duty in modern times in the last few years, have been showing yourselves fit representatives of Stark and the men who founded our republic. And, gentle- men, we have heard a good deal of criticism about what our people have done in the Philip- pines, Those that went wers our brothers, friends or companions. There was occasionally one of them that did something wrong. Well, we are mot all of us immaculate at home. There Is every reason why we should put a stop to wrongdoing, punish the wrongdoer, be idier or civilian, and where it has been possible to get at any soldler who did wrong he has been punished, but the fact remains that you and those like you in the Philippines have written a new page in the honor roll of American history, and ehame to us as a nation if we don’t stand behfnd you and appreciate Wwhat you have dome. And now, just one word. This is one of those great industrial centers, the building up of which has meant that building up of the ma- terial prosperity of our country. Now there is always certain to be some evil in any great movement forward. Our material progress has been accompanied by certain evils The mar- velous success which has produced such great corporate and individual wealth has meant that certain abuses have grown up in commeetion with that individual wealth and in'connection with the corporations that are the ordinary in- struments of industrial activity at present. There are evils. Let's try to get rid of them, but let's show common sense in the efforf. Let's devote. our thoughts and best energles to finding some Method of getting rid of any and all evils in the body politic, but let us, above all things, beware In using the knife not to handle it so that it will be dan- gerous to the community even more than the evil attacked. The President said in part at Nashua: Mr. Mayor and You, My Fellow Citiene, Men ‘an Women of New Hampshire: 1 am glad to have the chance to be greeted by you this morning and to acknowledge from my heart your greetings. This is one of the indus- trial centers, the prosperity of which has meant the prosperity of the whole country. But pros- perity itself never made any man happy. You are not going to be happy without it, but you are not going to be happy if you do not have sontething eise besides. Prosperity must be the basis. The material well being must be the foundation, but on it You have to rear a su- perstructure of kindly brotherhood, all striving for decency in public and private life, or but scant will be the good of prosperity. More than that, it is possible by government to create conditions under which men ean become prosperous, and it {s unfortunately easy encugh by bad legislation or bad adminstration to so paralyze our life as to render it impossible for any one to be prosperous: but all that govern- ment can do I8 to create conditions under which prosperity can come. If individual citizens lack the thrift. the energy, the power and the mind to work nio laws wiil ‘make them prosperous. HOTEL ARRIVALS. ° NEW WESTERN.
