WARREN SWANN INJURED.

      
       Mr. Z. A. McMillan has received a letter from Dr. Clemons McMillan, in the Philippines enclosing a clipping from a Manila paper telling of the injury of Warren Swann, who is an inspector in the service of Uncle Sam. The newspaper reports is (sic) as follows:

INSPECTOR SWANN INJURED.

       Word was received at Con (paragraph missing).  Swann was taken to Sorsogon for treatment.  The Doctor there stated that the wound was not necessarily serious but that it would necessitate confinement in the hospital for about fifteen days.  The telegram does not say whether the inspector was shot by himself or one of his men."
