"We will not know how many troops will be required in Cuba and I'orto Ilieo until Gen. Miles arrives and we hear from the two military said Gen. Corbin yesterday. "One of the objects ol the military commissions is to see what is the condition of the islands.

The commissions will fully inform themselves, according to instructions, of the sentiment existing among the people toward the United States to begin with. If tiie feeling is friendly the problem will be partially solved. If, on the other hand, there is dissatisfaction and disappointment that the affairs ot" the islands are not placed iu the keeping- of the natives at once, we shall be compelled to keep qui te a strong force iu each island in order to protect ourselves as well as the well-disposed people who are there." Why Fy Whs Kept Back. Washington, Sept. 7.

Considerable complaint has reached the war department from various parts of the country because the volunteer troops in Cuba did not receive their pay. In most instances the pay of the volun teers was three months in arrears and the government has been criticised for not paying the men promptly. Now that the troops have returned to the United States, it develops that the men were not paid because the colonels of 15 regiments requested the paymaster general to withhold the money due the troops until they should return to the United States. Pa3-master General Stanton says that the government had an efficient corps of paymasters and plenty of money in Cuba and could have paid the men promptly but for tbe requests made by the officers commanding the regiments. lien.

Schumacher only has been able io corner them and his suit in the disttict and appelate courts. Judge A. L. Ilamilton Is an old settler in Butler county and El 1 orado, and he knows what is right and jut in his matter. If all these things alleged of Leydig by the Tri'oui were true then Judge Hamilton made a mistake hen be resigned as counsel tor Lower.

He did resign and here is the statment found in the affidavit of the Lower attorneys asking a charge of venue In the suit agaiust W. F-. "Your petitioner sta'es that he being a resident of the stat Isso.irl. in the out set employed City lawyers to prosecute his claims. Tl'at said Ivansa-i City lawyers engaged the assistance of a lirui of lawyers at Li Dorado, the senior member of whici firm was an ex-member of the district court of llutler county and a lawyer of ability and influence in said county.

That as soon as it become generally known that your petitioner (Lower) was making -aid claim and that the local lawyers had been engaged, the prejudice and local influence of the present possessors of the aforesaid lands was so great and so strongly and steadily exercised that had the effect of causing the senior member of said local firm to withdraw his engagement to act as local representative at El Dorado and he was so strongly influenced that he withdrew from the representation of your petitioner. That tbe junior member of (aid firm who his not withdrawn from the representation of your petitioner's has been subjected to a great deal of adverse criticism. That at the time he was engaged said junior member was the city attorney of El Dorado and that the aforesaid pr judhc and local in fluences grew so strong after it became known that said junior member represented your petitioner, that under the pre-ure thereof he resigned hisc.lllce In said city government." This goes to show that Judge Hamilton had sense, and got out. I shows that Leydig though the people manifested their disapproval of his course in going into a hold-up scheme with Kan-as City lawyers was determined to hang an without regard to the right of the matter at issue and In disregard of the wishes and desires of bis fellow citizens ard towr smen. It shows that he was compelled to resign; it doen't show that he was twice asked to do so hy the city council.

He was so dead in seltidmess and so blind to his relation to the community that he sought to draw a salaiy for representing it In the council while at the same time he advised with the Kar6as City lawyers who were and are frying to rob the people on Lower's addition. i "I haci a severe Caneer wliieh only a fw that I thought1 first wouui tv away.

7. li. R. Wright, colored, recently appointed major and paymaster in the army through the inlinence of Speaker Reed, was in danger of his life yesterday at Camp John S. Gordon, on St.

Simon's island. Wright, who is very black, was detailed to pay o2 the seven com- panies of the Second North Carolina and lne Inird Texas, now at Camp Gordon, and arrived yesterday accompanied by a negro clerk. When the major appeared in camp the soldiers, all of whom are white, expressed themselves bo threateningly that the negro officer appealed to CoL liurgwyn, commanding the camp, for protection. A guard detail was furnished him, but he was obliged to occupy an abandoned tent, the white commissioned officers pointedly refusing him the use of theirs. When Corporal Giddings, of the Third Texas, was called to receive his pay be indignantly declined and denounced Wright for his presumption in appearing before white men.

A SONG OF KANSAS- Kansas has all the charms of a matron and all the diffidence of a school girl. -She has always the appearance of never being quite sure of herself, yet her promises are never broken and her pledges never forgotten. If her moods be many, they are lovable all; and to win one sunshiny smile from Her Serene Highness the wanderer In alien lands, returns and Is made glad.

If Kansas was crowned for her virtues she wculd wear one wreath in commemoration of her churches, and another of her schools. No other state in the Federal Union was capable of mustering into national service, when a call was mada upon it, a regiment of young men, true product of Kansa3 soil, where no one among the thousand but what could read and write intelligibly, and seventy-live per cent of whom Individual bank accounts, savings deposited for the "rainy day" coming som. time. a just reward for manly labor handed out by God to the honest hearls and willing hands that had knelt in ad-or itlon before the thrcne of Her Serene Highness and from her received their degree of knighthood. A Kansas sunrise and a Kansas sunset, where the ox-bloods and the purple mingle, where the amethyst splendor blends with the ivory and gold, where the scarlet of the poppy and the plr.k of the clover, the yellow of the datsj's heart and the blue of the Indigo-flower mix like artist-paint on the canvass of the horizon, and change like kaleidoscopic glesses as Sol rises or sinks! And on a Kansas prairie where tbe suo rises out of the grass In the east and sets in the grass of the west, where one can nuild air-castles mountain high and shut off no one's view, where freedom from carklng care comes like a prayerful benediction to hallow a peaceful repose, here on these Kansas prairies even the bees that haunted the gardens of the lost Hesperides would hum tbelr busy monotone of content and hive to wing no more.

Kansas offers more and asks less than any other state. Perseverance and energy are the pass-words to opulence The stranger who comes within our gates needs but fulfill the demands of these maglt words and Kansas beams her bland smiles on ripening fields of golden wheat and breathes a breath of fruition on waving fields of rustling corn, the granaries are rilled, the cr.bs are heaf ed, and when the ides of autumn come and Jack Frost waves his magic wand to paint the sumachs red and tbe elm trees yellow, the toiler of the field basks in luxury wealth.

HARDSHIPS OF SANTIAGO'S CAMPAIGN. It Cannes All the Suffering and Death at the Camp- The President's Visit and HU Carefal Examination at to Conditions Ulm That Ever) thing In Itelng Done That Is ecetary. Washington, Sept 6. Secretary Alger, who returned late Saturday night from New York after his inspection tour through Camp Wikoff at Montauk point, with President MeKinley and several of the bureau officials of the war department, commented last night upon the conditions of the camp and stated the results of his visit The secretary said: I feel certain, after a careful examination of Camp Wikoff and a thorough of its conditions that everything possible is be-inL' done for the men. both sick ami well, who lire detained there.

The camp is an a imirable one the bst. I think. I ever saw. The si: is ideaL It Is beautiful without beinu and Is certainly as heaithful a camp location as cnuid be found in the eastern country. Whiie the conditions are as good as could reasonably be expected in the circumstanceseven better than I ever knew them to be in ciimp a shaue of L'loom is eat over th em-anipmeat by the physial condition of the men.

Sickness, sufferinz and deal uiar what would otherwise be a mamticent military picture These conditions, however, are: not the rrsult of the situation of the camp itself, but of the terrible campaign through whiih the troops passed. That cam pain at San i will be memorable in the military history of th1 worlit It was wonderful both in its con duct and in the results accomplished. Fw military experts expected when th? campaign was inuu-rurafd that sui-h a success could be in so shurt a time. It a tremendous uadertikiti to betrin a camuai-'n in a tropical country during th" rainy season atramt a position naturally so s'-nu-r ami so well defended as as Santiago. That success was achieved so soon and with a loss comparatively so snriil is due to the and ainiity of xn.

II that wh arrived in t'uha and rrallzd th'? con ditions that confronted him anl a is men, he knew that the campaign must of necessity be one cf days rather than of wedis and mon'hs. He lost nearly all his hirht ri and was thus seriously handicapped in t-ffect-in? a landing of both his troops and the stores and suptlies hieh the fleet carried. The tremendous rains which set In immediately after his arrival ror.dered it next to impossible for either the troop or supplies to be gotten forward. He feit, however, that whatever were the dirn uities, he must press forward and if possible end the campaign In the briefest time. The climatic conditions were such that to lose any time meant the destruction of his community illness and the consequent faiiure of the expedition.

He took no chances on delays. thrtiore, but swept his pallant army upon the s.ianiar is with such irresistible dash that i was won almost before the Sp inlard-t thems 'lvt-s realized what they had to jneounif r. It is perfectly evident niw that, had Gen. Shafter waited unti hln army and supplies could have been sent forward, with ordinary deliberation, the expedition airiinst Santiago would have failed utterly. In a m--aure it was his disregard for military con i--nili-tles thnt enibied him to carry the to a brilliantly successful issue.

Such a visit as Presidt-nt MeKinley made to Camp Wikoff Is almost unique military annals. He went to camp equipped with knowledge, judgment and expe rience to make an investigation. He had serv.

Secretary Alger saii there whs r.o mtention of abandoning W.kolf. The troops will be kept there so long is it may be deemed desirable to keep up the camp.
