Charleston, W. Vs Nov. L A seri
ous clash between federal and state Ju
dicial authorities Is expected here.
Maynard F. Stiles, attorney for Henry
C King, of New York, obtained from
the United States circuit court here an
Injunction to inhibit the sheriff of
Logan county from selling the land of
his client for taxes. Judge Doollttle,
of the circuit court of Logan oounty,
Issued a rule against Stiles for con
tempt. After hearing Stiles' answer to
the ruling Judge Doollttle committed
Stiles to Jail to remain there until In
junction proceedings In the federal
court were dismissed. Stiles waa plac
ed in the county Jail and an applica
tion was made to Judge Jackson for a
writ of habeas corpus, which Judge
Jackson Issued, and a deputy marshal
waa sent to bring Stiles before the
federal court.
The sheriff and Jailer refused, under
Instructions from Judge Doollttle, to
deliver the prisoner to United States
officers, and the officer having reported
to court Judge Jackson was asked to
issue a writ of attachment against the
sheriff and Jailer, the effect of which
was to bring these officers, with their
prisoner, before the court. Attorney
General Rucker, of this state, requested
Judge Jackson to delay Issuing the
writ until 'he can communicate with
Judge Doollttle, which Judge Jackson
agreed to do.
If Judge Doollttle refuses to give up
the prisoner an attachment will Issue,
and if the United States officers are
resisted United States troops may be
callod m to suppress the rebellion.

The Islands to Be Held as United
States Territory.
WILL ASSUME PEACEFUL DEBTS,
But None of Uncle Sam's Money Will
Go to Pay Debts Incurred In Spain's
Futile Efforts to Suppress the Fre
quent Uprising.
Paris, Nov. L Directly after the Joint
session of the peace commission was
called to order yesterday Secretary
Moore, upon the request of Judge Day
passed to Mr. Ferguson, tho Interpreter,
the formulated demands of the United
States regarding the Philippines, which
were read to the Spaniards in their
own tongue by a rapid rendering from
the English, In which they were writ
ten. Although the Spanish commis
sioners did not betray anxiety, their
attention to the reading was keen.
They had anticipated that the United
States would take over the island, but
the terms and details of tho transfer
had all along been a subject of specu
lation. The reading disclosed the fact that
the United States government had de
termined to possess for itself certain
territory and parcels of land hounded
by and lying within such parallels of
latitude and longitude as murk the
limits of the Philippine archipelago.
The United States do not propose us
surorng the Philippine debt of J 10,000,
000, but they are willing to be respon
sible to Spain for a sum of money equal
to the actual expenditures by Spain
in the Philippines for the advantage
of the Islands and for the good of their
people, for permanent betterments and
for Improvements, both physical and
mental.
The reading of the presentment rpecl
fles that the United States will reim
burse Spain to thu extent of her "pa
cific expenditures" made In the archi
pelago. This phrase "pacific expendi
tures" Is employed to differentiate the
expenditures by Spain in combatting
Insurrections In the Philippines. The
one is felt by the American commis
sioners to be a fair burden upon the
acquiring power, while the on her and
latter class of expenditures hold to
have been Ioglcully assumed by Spain
in the Inevitable hazard to a nation
resorting to arms t enforce order in
Its own territory.
Such Is the vital fortlon iff the pre
sentment made by the American com
missioners, and tt Is to be observed
that while the mutri proposition as to
potwesslon and financial responsibility
is t'lear and definite, many -details liav
been left to the oVvelopmvnts of the
discussion between the two commis
sions. Thus, while the Spaniards are
quite certain that the United Static
Intend to reimburse them for "pacific
expenditures." they remark that they
are not enllKhtencd us to whethor the
Americans expect to imloiw the Span
ish obligations to the extent of "pa
cific expenillturef" In the archlpelugo
or whethi-r they will hand Spain a
lump sum of gold lnrse enough to cover
Spain's outlay so flesiitnated.
Possibly the American commissioners
themselves are not at t'nls moment
fully determined on this point. It Is
unlikely, however, that the Americans
will care to become Identified in the
sllghtestdeRree with Spain In her re
sponsibility to her creditors. The
clearer method seems to be to hand
to Spam spot cash, or something as
good, and to hid her apply It on her
debts by whatever name known, or to
put It In her wallet for whatever use
she may elect.
While flie United States ha-ve deslg
noted "pacific expenditures" as those
they will reimburse to Spnln the pre
sentment f the American commission
ers did not demand either a schedule
or an Inventory of the same from the
Spaniards. But the suggestion natur
ally raises an Inquiry ns to the kind
and quuntlty of Spain's "paelUc ex
penditures" In the Philippines, ami
some light may be given on that mat
ter now.
There Is considerable traffic lietween
the islands, nnd some time oro a sys
tem of lighthouses became necessary.
Fpaln set out to supply this and pro
jected light stations. . Of these she
has alresdy constructed 17 of the first
class and 18 of the second. What they
cost is not yet known here, but In
American waters those of the first class
cost from J25.O0O M J230.O0O each, so
that, on nn avernse basis of the min
imum cost In the United States, Spain's
33 IlKhthouses may represent nn outlay
of SSi,000.
Spain has constructed breakwaters
at Manila, at an expense not yet
known here, and wharves of small
value along the rasig river. She ban
recently built barracks for 4,000 men.
now occupied by the American troops,
the cost of which Is not yet ascertain
able.
At Cavite Spain had built n naval
station, which, before it was sacked
by the natives, was said to be equal
to the Mare Island station, and may
then have been worth $2,500,000.
Whether or not the Inst two Items can
be strictly designated "puclflc expendi
tures" must be determined in confer
ence, but the lighthouses, water Im
provements, barracks and naval sta
tion are necessary to the United States
as the owner of the Philippines and
are deemed worth a fair price.
Spain has also built some school-
houses, which the Americans are will
ing to take over at cost.
The Spanish commissioners listened
attentively, though not without some
evidences of Impatience and surprise
at the financial suggestions in tin
American presentment, and Anally ask
ed until Friday to consult the Madrid
government and make reply. Adjourn
ment waa then taken to that day.
Omaha's Exposition Ended.
Omaha, Neb., Nov. 1. The trans-
Misslsslppi and international exposi

hours of the enterprise were the most
brilliant In the history of the Ave
months' exhibition. It is estimated
that 75,000 people crowded the grounds
yesterday. Up to yesterday morning
2,652.89ft people had registered at the
turnstiles, so the grand total will con
siderably exceed 2,600,000. The exposi
tion was a financial success, something
over $400,000 remaining to be divide!
among the stockholders.

THE DREYFUS REVISION. : lEflffC

For the Bevisionists.
DE FEETCINET AS WAR MINISTER
His Attitude on the Dreyfus Case as
Yet Somewhat Possllnsr Dnpuy May
Tnrn lit Back on General Meroler.
Mysterious Prisoner at Valerlen.
London, Nov. 1. The Paris corre
spondent of The Times, dilating upon
the fact that the Dreyfus affair oc
curred under M. Dupuy's former pre
miership and when President Faure
was minister of marine, says:
"It Is disquieting for the revisionists
that M. Faure now confers the pre
miership upon M. Dupuy, as these two
are called upon to screen their former
colleague, General Mercler. Certainly
the combination occurred somewhat
tardily, now that the court of cassa
tion Is In possession of the affair, but
on tho other hand M. De Freyclnet. the
new minister of war, who has been
four times premier, has never faced
difficulties, but has always turned from
them or eluded them. He Is a past mas
ter In the art of meeting great ques
tions by petty solutions, and I fear that
under him the bright sunshine demand
ed may chunge into a rush light, il
luminating only a tiny corner of the
mystery.
"Not that M. Do Freyclnet Is likely to
burn or withhold the secret dossier, hut
there nre such labyrinths In his brain
thnt vou never know what Ariadne
could discover the clew. We may ex
pect any surprises rather than a clear
solution. Nobody, however, denies the
superiority of his nuture. nnd It muy
be hoped that, being satiated with of
fice nnd having probably renounced
the dream of (supreme power cherished
so many years, ho will place his great
subtlety and adroitness ut the service
of the highest cause of truth and Jus
tice, without trembling before any one
he who has hitherto ulways trembled
before somebody."
The Ihirls correspondent of The Dally
News says:
"I learn that It is not at all unllltely
tuut M. Dupuy, the new premier, will
turn his back on General Mercler.
"It Is rumored thnt another mys
terious prisoner was brought to Mont
Valerlen prison on Saturday. Four
cells there ara now occupied."

Washlgnton, Nov. 1. The following
report from Mr. Hanna, American con
sul at Porto Rico, has been received:
"I am convinced that young men seek
ing work or positions of any kind
should not come to Porto Rico. No
American should come to Porto Rico
expecting to strike it rich, nnd no per
son should come here without a plenty
of money to pay board bills and have
enough to take them back to their
homes In the United States. This Is -j
small Island, has a population "f about
a million people, and Is tho mort dense
ly populated country In the world.
There nre several hundred thousand
working Porto Rlcnns rendy to fill the
vacant jobs, nnd at a low price."
British War I'ri'iiaratloiirt.

morning publishes no news regarding
England's war preparations, explain
ing that silence Is due to a letter from

'anything which might lie useful to a
possible enemy." The Mall confirms
the reports of unexampled activity at
tho French dockyards, notably at Tou
lon, where the coast forts have been
experimenting with melinite shell
against on old gunboat.
