B. Tappan, who is to be as- sociated with M.

Not only has this been dohe by the officers who have been weorking out the invasion scheme, but they have perfected a plan for the distribution of troops -that - will remain in .the United States, sp that they may. be available in case-of strikes or other home disturbances. The schéme of invasion as at present contemplated i{s with a view principally of a combination of American forces with those of other foreign powers, but subsidiary arrangements have been made to meet the possibility that the United States will be forced to act zlone. Army officers “who have to do with tacfical and _strategical arrangements haye told Secretary Taft and, through | himi, the President; that it would be un- 'safe to deplete the Philippine army by mare than 5000 men. As a force Of 25,000 troops would be the smallest allotment to ‘fall to America's share in an allied expedition, it will be absolutely necessary to send 20,000, regulars from .continental America. The question .of transports has been considered,. the location and state .of repairs of . every Government beat is known and preparations have been made to ‘call Pacific Malil liners into service. If the situation in China demands the dispatching of American soldiers for a march to Peking within ‘three weeks after the time of the call to arms there will not “be a regular infantryman left within the borders of the United States, for it is the intention of the department to send its full force into the field, save only In!flntrymen doing duty ln the Phil- ippines.

Twelve sticks of it have been recovered, but the Stratfordites are still - looking carefully where they step and wear wor- ried expressions. ‘When Deputy Sheriff Stogg. took three 10-year-old boys before Justice of the Peace Peck, charged with having broken into a storehouse.and stolen the dyna- mite, disclosures came fast.
