Last night three loads of violators of the gambling laws were arrested, and the furniture confiscated. NEWSPAPERS IX MANILA. Former Kokomo Hoy Writes an Interesting Letter About His Work. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind., Jan. 22.—Elmer Schooley, a Kokomo newspaper man who enlisted in a Minnesota regiment, relates his interesting experience in helping establish American papers at Manila. In a letter to. a friend here he says: “The ‘American Soldier’ is still running and several other papers have sprung into existence, among them two dailies, the Times and the American. The American has the Associated Press franchise to a very limited extent and is supported by the army officers, who pay for the dispatches. The Times is run by an Englishman from Singapore, who has a brother running a paper at Hong-Kong, the latter furnishing the telegraphic news to the Times. I am working on the Times, six other soldiers helping me. The first issue was printed in the government office in the palace, an American plant operated by a San Francisco job printer who came here with the third expedition and is doing government contract printing. After being ordered out of the paiace the Times was published at the office of La Espenola Oceariica, a Spanish paper. “It sometimes happens that nearly all of us newspaper fellows are put on guard at onqe, then we have tough times getting out the paper. The other day five of us were detailed as guards, leaving only two to make the paper. I managed to pull the forms together and get them on the press by .3 o’clock. The local editor was sweating blood and after supper he went out and got drunk to drown his troubles. “The Spanish newspaper offices are a sight to behold. In the art of printing as in everything else, the Spaniards are two hundred years behind the times, hand presses and an occasional jobber that might have been in the ark. seems Jike the days of Benjamin Franklin, the printer’s patron saint. "The people here are a badly mixed-up lot of half savages. Asa whole they are degraded, diseased, dwarfed and dirty. Their average height is scarcely four feet. They are a mixture o-f Malay, Spanish, Chinese and European, the Malay predominating. Back in the interior they are genuine Africans. The “Manila beauty” is like the beautiful American Indian maiden, often read about but never seen. Some of the Spanish women are beautiful, but the American dude cannot reach them. Christmas turkeys cost $8 a piece. We took chicken.”
John R. Walsh’s Hank Scheme. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BEDFORD, Ind., Jan. 22.—1n a short time Bedford will have a third bank. About a month ago T. O. Daggy, former treasurer of the county, sought to make a deal for the purchase of the Citizens’ Bank, to become the property of John R. Walsh and others, but the principal stockholders, Col. A. C. Voris, Joseph R. Voris and Harry M. Voris, declined to sell. He then approached the stockholders of the Stone City Bank, and the latter, it is understood, were disposed to consider a proposition based on a valuation of the bank stock at 130 per cent. The representative of the Walsh interest objected to the price. The business interests here owned or controlled by John R. Walsh pay out between $40,000 and $50,000 per month by check on Mr. Walsh’s Chicago bank. This money kept in Bedford would be sufficient for a good banking business.

OBITUARY. Gen. Michael Annenkoff, the Great Russian Railway Engineer. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 22.—Gen. Michael Annenkoff, the distinguished Russian engineer who constructed the Transcaspian Railway, is dead. The late Gen. Annenkoff, who was born in St. Petersburg in 1838, was a son of the famous Gen. Michael Annenkoff and was destined by his father for a military career. In return for his services during the Polish insurrection of ISG6 he was promoted, at the age of twenty-eight, to the rank of colonel and he remained for four years in the immediate service of the imperial administration. During the Franco-Prussian war he accompanied the German army as a Russian military attache, after vhich he returned to Russia to take part, under the orders of Gen. Skobeleff, in the Merv campaign. Specially assigned to the work of constructing strategic railways, he soon distinguished himself in this direction and ultimately completed the great Trans-caspian line, begun by Skobeleff, personally superintending the construction of the division between Samarkand Taehkend. This exploit was equally remarkable for the ingenuity of the processes of construction and the rapidity with which they w'ere carried on. Os late years Gen.

FITZ MEANS BUSINESS “LANKY IIOll" CANCELS HIS PItESENT THEATRICAL ENGAGEMENTS. ♦ Want* to Filit Sharkey untl the Sailor Han Nine Days to Put I p His Honey—-Other Sporting- News. ♦ NEW YORK. Jan. 22.—That Bob Fitzsimmons is sincere in his desire to defend the heavyweight championship of the world against Tom Sharkey or any other pugilist in the world was attested to-day by Lanky Boh canceling all his theatrical engagements. If Fitzsimmons did not mean business he would never have thrown up the lucrative engagements he had booked. When he announced his intention of fighting again a few days ago, many persons imagined that he was bluffing and simply made the statement to boom his theatrical enterprise. Among those who questioned me genuineness of Fitzsimmons’ desire for another fight with Tom Sharkey. When informed of Fitz’s challenge the sailor 'pugilist accused "Lanky Bob’’ of using the press as an advertising medium for his show. Sharkey aid that Fitz could prove in only one way that he was in earnest. The Sailor said: "if Fitz will abandon his theatrical tour I will believe he is honest in his efforts to arrange a match with me.’’ In the parlance of the poker table, it is now "up to” Mr. Sharkey. Fitz having complied with the condition exacted by Sharkey. It remains now for Sharkey to prove his? sincerity by at once signing articles to meet the Australian. That the battle will not be near New York State is certain, as Fitz has declared that the only club in the Empire State competent to handle the match is not well disposed toward him. He will, however, agree to fight Sharkey under the auspices of any club in the country offering the largest purse and whose motto is fair play. The most desirable territory in view at present is Carson City, and Dan Stuart, who controls the things there, announces his willingness to offer a purse. The size of the purse, Stuart says, will be announced when the men sign articles. Sharkey still has about nine days in which to make a final acceptance and cover Fitzsimmons's forfeit money to bind the match. From his statements, Sharkey appears to be anxious to light Fitz, but whether he will come to terms within the time limit is another question. The general opinion among the sporting fraternity is that Fitz and Sharkey will not come together foist me time to come. The sports believe that Sharkey will rest for awhile until the Cornishman has met Jeffries or Corbett. If Sharkey does not come to an agreement with Fitz, it is more than likely that Jeffries. the big California boiler maker, will be the champion’s next opponent. Corbett and Jeffries have $2,500 each posted with the sporting editor of the Journal for a match with Fitz. Jeffries has first claim, however, and if Sharkey agrees to fight Fitz, both will have to stand aside so far as the champion is concerned. Fitz may give Jeffries a chance after he meets Sharkey, or Jeffries and Corbett may cc.me together in the meantime and the winner of that bout be matched to fight Fitz for the championship, providing he is successful with the sailor. Jeffries does not want to stand aside. He is anxious for a match immediately, and claims that as he has received the decision over Sharkey, who beat Fitzsimmons, he is entitled to first chance for high honors. In case Fitz decides to take on Jeffries it is rumored that the bout will be brought off within a few miles of New Y'ork. William A. Brady, who thinks he has a coming champion in the Californian, says that his protege will arrive here next week and will be ready for business. Brady has the utmost confidence in Jeffries’s ability to beat the world, and he is anxious to come to on agreement with as little talk as possible. Many sports here like Jeffries’s style and believe he is the coining man.

In the course of his report, on which the Porto Rican tariff is largely based, Special Commissioner Robert P. Porter shows that the value of the importations into Porto Rico during the year 1897 amounted to 17,358,003 pesos. Upon which was collected in duties $2,481,%2. He says: “The tariff in force in Porto Rico until the United States took possession of the island last summer was purely a revenue measure, the total amount of duty collected averaging about 14 per cent, on the value of merchandise imported. These values, both as to importation and duties coilected, are given in silver, and therefore under existing conditions—two silver Porto Rican pesos for one United States dollar—must be divided in order to express the amounts in United States money. If the same amount of revenue be required in Porto Rican pesos and the exports are likely to keep up to the 1897 standard, the fiscal problem confronting the Treasury Department in Porto Rico is briefly this: Probable total value of dutiable imports, $17,538,062 pesos, or $8,765,031; total revenue to be collected, 2,451,902 pesos, or $1,240,981. “Discarding the money question, which after all in this case is a purely Porto Rican matter the simple problem is an importation of about $9,000,000 United States money and a needed revenue of $1,250,000 United States money. The aim in framing the Cuban tariff was to secure a revenue representing about 25 per cent, ad valorem of, the imports. The aim has been in the Porto Rican tariff to secure a revenue representing about 15 per cent, ad valorem on all imports. "The value of the importations of pterchandise into Cuba the last normal year (1895) was $61,443,334, and the total revenue collected thereon $14,587,986, or an average of nearly 25 per cent, ad valorem. On the other hand, the total value of imported merchandise for Porto Rico in 1897, which, so far as that island is concerned, was a normal year, was 17.358.065 pesos, and the duties collected 2,481,962 pesos, or an average of about 14 per cent. The basis, in the case of Cuba, was practically gold and Porto Rico silver, but that makes no difference in the relation of the tariff of one country to the other. Speaking roundly the Cuban tariff jielded about 25 per cent, and the Porto Rican say about 15 per cent." “It would be manifestly unjust,” Mr. Porter continues, "to Porto Rico to adopt and put in force the amended Cuban tariff because it is believed the Cuban revenue will amount to about 25 per cent, of tbe imports, while a 15 per cent, ad valorem tariff, assuming that the imports keep up to those of 1897, will yield sufficient revenue for the governmental needs of Porto Rico. The necessities and wants of the two countries are radically different. Porto Rico has not been devastated by war nor will it require a large United States army to keep order. There are no armed insurgents demanding millions for payment of military services to be charged up to the customs receipts. For these and other reasons the amended tariff for Porto Rico has been framed on a revenue yielding basis of 15 per cent, instead of 25 per cent, as in the ease of the amended tariff of Cuba. By this it must not be inferred that all the schedules will be unitormly 15 per cent. The schedules relating to wool and manufactures of wool, silk and manufactures of silk, and musical instruments, have been increased to 25 per cent, ad valorem. The rates of liquor schedule will exceed 25 per cent, and is practically the same as in the Cuban schedule. An endeavor bad been made to keep cotton and manufacture- of cotton below' 15 per cent., only the liner grades* at the higher rate and all the
coarser goods of general consumption have been placed at 10 per cent, ad valorem. The machinery to be used in extending transportation and advancing the industries of the island has been put at 15 per cent, or its equivalent. About 18 per cent, ad valorem has heretofore been collected on the imports of tho metal schedule and it is probable that the proposed rat; s w ill ke; p wi ilia this proportion. Here and there a few changes have been made as will be seen by reference to the several schedules which follow, but the changes have ail been dictated by the desire to make the revenue tariff less burdensome on articles of food than on articles which are consumed by those better able to pay. The general result will be a tariff not dissimilar to that of Jamaica, which averages about per cent. duty, but which is now undergoing revision by a commission and which tariff your commissioner was informed when in Kingston, will average after the revision is completed about 16 2-d per cent. "As has been said the revenue producing schedule in the Porto Rico tariff, as in the Cuban tariff, is that relating to provisions. The Spanish policy seems to have been 7 per cent, for manufactures of cotton, 12 per cent, for manufactures of silk, 10 per cent, for manufactures of wool, 9 per cent, for machinery, z per cent, for special imports. but 2 > per cent, on alimentary substances. There would seem to be two reasons for this, the first being that the people in a climate like Porto Rico can do without almost anything but food; the second that as most of the food products were imported into Porto Rico lrom the United. States, Spain herseif took little interest in the rates of duty. Indeed of the total amount of duties paid as above, nearly $;50,000 were paid by the United biates largely on food products. In mtiking up the Porto Rico tariff Spain arranged the schedules so adroitly in favor of tier own interests that between the goods placed at a high rate of duty coming from countries other than Spain, and the commodities placed a low rate of duty—or on the free list—when imported into Porto Rico from Spain, she escaped almost altogether the payment of duty. “Spain, according to Dr. Carroll, furnished over 40 per cent, in value, of the imports, and paid less than 4 per cent, of the customs collected; the United States furnished 21 per cent, of the value of the imports, and paid 38 per cent, of the customs collected. As Spanish imports now pay duties at the same rates as those from other countries, an increase of revenue may fairly be expected in the schedules which Spain reserved for herself. If the amount of tliis increase could be estimated it would bo possible to considerably reduce the rates of duty on food stuffs, but to do so without knowing exactly the amount of revenue it may be possible to obtain from the other revised schedules would be a dangerous experiment.” NEW INVENTION TESTED. It Will Send nnil I’rlnt Four Telegriiphic Messages at Once. St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The printing telegraph instrument, anew invention, which will transmit and print messages at the rate of 300 words a minute and do several other wonderful things, will be tested some time this week by Dr. Harry A. Rowland at Johns Hopkins University. The instrument will endeavor to send four messages at the same, time to Pittsburg, and to receive at the same time four messages sent from Pittsburg to Baltimore. The essential advantages of this instrument over the instrument now in use are that it enables several messages to be sent and received together, and at the same time, frem the same or separate points ever the same wire; that it makes it impossible to "tap” a wire and catch any one or more of the passing messages, and that it will not be affected by the weather. With ail these advantages, the expense of the new instrument will rot be great. Dr. Rowland expects to have his arrangements for a patent completed by next spring. A model instrument is now in operation in the Johns Hopkins physical laboratory. Notwithstanding the incompleteness of some of the details, the little machine already performs its work successfully. The operation of the instrument may be most readily understood by beginning with a consideration of the part of the mechanism situated at the sending station. The sending instruments are fitted with keyboards, like typewriters. Their number is the same as that of the messages it may be desired to send simultaneously. Eight is the regular number of messages that the instrument is designed to handle at once, but ten could be taken without special inconvenience. Each keyboard must have a person to operate it; the economy in labor is experienced at the receiving end of the line. Still, considering the sending instrument. and supposing all eight of the keyboards—it matters not how widely separated—to be in use, the six operators rattle ahead with their messages as rapidly as they choose and without regard to one another. It would seem as though the eight dispatches, switched on to a single wire, would produce hopeless confusion, but one of the devices of Dr. Rowland's instruments adjusts the words in such a way that the separate letters of the respective messages cannot start on the main wire out of its regular turn. For example, suppose the first words of six sentences, started simultaneously, to be, respectively, “wheat,” “the,” "Jarvis,” “Yonkers,” “league” and ’’Armenian,” the adjuster would select in turn the letters ‘W, TANARUS, J, Y, L, A.” “h, h, a, c, e, r,” etc., the order of rotation being constantly preserved. So long as the message-sending capacity of the instrument is not exceeded, it makes no difference whether the messages all be sent in orie direction, or part of them in one direction and part in the contrary. The adjustor will accomplish its work as well, with four messages going north and four coming south, or one going north and five coming south, as it will with the whole group of the messages proceeding in the same direction. The result is made possible by the nature of the alternating current. At the receiving station, the Rowland receiver performs its work without human aid. The eight messages are automatically separated and distributed to six instruments. These print out the messages as fast as received. At present Dr. Rowland’s instruments are fitted to print on ribbons of paper, such as used in the familiar “ticker,” but his perfected machine will print the messages out on sheets of paper of any desirable shape and size. Hitherto there has never been a successful attempt to attain this result. Absolutely the only attention necessary at the receiving station is to supply the instrument with paper and lake away the printed sheets. It is obvious that an adoption of the system would reduce the number of necessary operators of a line by just one-half, for the Morse system, now in use in this country, demands an operator to receive as well as one to send the message. The mercantile advantages to be gained by the use of such a system would be vast. In a newspaper office, for example, the value of the time saved on such an occasion as an election night would be almost beyond calculation. From each of the paper’s wires ten sets of returns, from entirely separate points, could be received at once. Then the messages, as soon as received, would be printed out. ready to be edited and put in type. The delay now caused by the necessity of writing out the messages as they are received would be eliminated.
MARGARET REID ABROAD. Her Complimentary ••Election” tie a. Singer in Belgium. The following paragraph from the New York Musical Ago of Jan. 19, in regard to an Indianapolis singer, will be read with interest by her many friends: Miss Margaret Reid, the young American singer of whom mention has from time to time been made in these columns, has lately been “elected” at the opera house at Liege, Belgium. The fact of Miss Reid’s engagement to sing leading soprano roles there was noted some weeks ago, but the news has been received of the formal ratification of the engagement by a process that must sound novel to Americans. In opera houses in France or Belgium aided by government subsidy, the engagements of singers are always made subject to the- vote of certain government officials, town officers, members of the operatic management and important persons of the city, taken after the singer’s third appearance. Miss Reid made her debut at Liege earlv in November, as Marguerite, in “Faust,” afterward singing in “La Traviata,” arid finally as Ophelia in Hamlet. She was a to tal stranger in Liege before her recent arrival there, and to the result of the vote must be taken as an overw helming tribute to her powers, for she received 169 out of the 175 ballots cast, only 117 being necessary to elect. Two of the men singers w'ere weighted in the balance at the same time as Miss Reid, the election taking place in the foyer of the theater, directly after the “Hamlet” performance. One of the men got 118 votes, just insuring his permanent stay for the season, while the other, less fortunate, received 113. just four too few. The Liege critics have written In almost unmeasured terms of Miss Reid's successes, one man pronouncing her “perfect.” Miss Reid, it may be recalled, sang Ophelia here at the Metropolitan Opera House in 1894. taking Mile. Van Zandt's place at short notice. Strikers* Fire Info n Train. COLON. Colombia, Jan 22.—The strike of dock laborers is fast assuming a serious aspect.

A hundred more are expected in the course of the next twelve hours, and the ship owners are anxiously awaiting their arrival. Business is seriously delayed. Soldiers are guarding the warehouses, where the doekmen now on hand are at work, .and are preventing communication with the outside.

MURDERED THE GOVERNOR. Natives Attack Spanish Officers os Inland of Lubnan. LABI*AN, Island of Batman, British Borneo, Jan. 22.—The steamer labuan, which has just returned from the Island of Palawan, in the southwestern portion of the Philippine archipelago, reports that the Spanish governor of the island and a number of Spanish officers were murdered by the natives while issuing from church. The natives then retired to the hills, taking the women and children and some men as prisoners. A Spanish gunboat and a mail boat called and left again. Captain Pfort, of the steamer Labuan. interviewed the natives and brought away the governor’s wife, the other women and children, a priest and twelve soldiers, all of whom are now safe at Sandaken, British Borneo. STORY OF EUGENE HIGGINS. An Incident f His Official Career In the Treasury Department. Washington Post. Eugene Higgins, who died in Baltimore last Friday, was one of the most unique characters in American politics. Higgins was born sixty years ago. He was in appearance a typical sport of the old school. He had a somewhat florid face, a long, white mustache. and was scrupulously neat in his appearance. He invariably wore clothing of the latest cut, and his head was always surrounded by a glossy tile of the season’s block. Furtnermore, Higgins invariably drank wine, which is the vernacular for champagne. Through all tho period when the ring ruled Baltimore and Baltimore governed Maryland, Higgins was a power politically. When Mr. Cleveland first became President and Daniel Manning was made secretary of the treasury, the civil-service reformers of the country were thrown into fits upon the announcement that Higgins hud been selected for appointment clerk of the treasury. His reputation as a political headsman was such F „ every clerk in the department trembica for his place when lie learned of Higgins’s selection, and very naturally those in the appointment division were the most worried of all. But there was one among them, a jolly, short, squat German, who did not propose to borrow trouble. His colleagues in the office were introduced one after another, and finally Fred Grimm was presented to the new chief. “Mr. Hiccons,” he said, "my name is Crim. I have come to gif you a bointer. You don’t know der furst brincibles of your dooty.” “Well, sir,” said Mr. Higgins, severely, “If you can give me any information as to the proper way in which I should begin my labors in this office I shall be glad to have you do so.” “Sir,” replied the smiling clerk, “der furst duty of a ehentleman who komes into dis offis to poss der ehob is to say: ‘Coom, poys, vat wil! you haf?’ ” That suggestion pleased Higgins. He needed no further hint. “All the male clerks of this office,” he said, “will meet me at Solari’s at exactly 4:15, and the man who is one minute late will be looking for anew job to-morrow.” There was not an absentee. Higgins bought a basket of Piper, and thereby established himself in the good graces of his clerks. He never had occasion to dismiss one of them during his term of office; and there is not a clerk in that division of the treasury who does not sincerely regret the demise of Eugene Higgins.
Where So Grip Is. New York Evening Sun. A doctor writing in an English periodical has this to say in reference to the talk about influenza which one hears at present: “Many people may be surprised to hear that even in this world there are places where It is impossible to catch a cold, simply because there are no colds to catch. There are facts, however, which seem to prove this. For example, Nansen and his men during the three years which they spent in the Arctic regions never caught a cold. Yet they were exposed to cold, fatigue and wet to a degree which we at home can hardly realize. Especially one remembers how Nansen and his comrade Johansen during their wonderful expedition on foot over the Polar ice went on, day after day, clad In clothes which were so saturated with perspiration that they froze by day into one solid mass of ice, and even cut into the flesh; how every night when they tucked themselves up in their sleeping bags, the first hour was spent in thawing: how they lay shivering, their frozen socks spread across their chests, until their clothes gradually became wet and soft and eventually comfortable and warm. It was, indeed, a damp bed to sleep in. Yet they never caught cold.” All of which raises the question of the availability of the Polar regions as a winter health resort. The most Interesting intelligence from the Klondike will be with regard to the peculiarity of that region in this very respect. Perhaps we shall have our doctors, disinterested persons as they are, telling those of their patients who are suspectible to cold, to go north and grow up with the country. All Stars Win.
