COSTA RIGA.


1>ak NbASao.
Porto Reinas, April PA natural
lied American citizen named Rafael
Gallegos, of the firm of Montealgre &
Co., San Francisco, has received gross
injuries at the hands of this govern
ment. He is Costa Rica by birth,
but his family, business, and most of
his intimate relations are in California.
He is here only on a business visit,
buying coffee, and had intended return
ing to San Francisco very soon. He
was ordered to do military duty, and
when he objected, he was peremptorily
ordered to report to president Guar
drias, who was then in this place. The
apology he received from Guardias was
a greater insult than the previous in
dignity practiced upon him. He was
told that he had been removed from San
Jose to save him from the C nsequences
of evil associations, and that he was
understood to be unfriendly to the gov
ernmeut. He was set at liberty, but
was taken with malarial fever and con-
fined to his room for several weeks.
He is still unable to return to San Jose
and finish his business, which has great
ly suffered for want of his attention.
The Star and Herald commenting on
the above says: "If American citizens
have the same rights in Costa Rica
that the Costa Ricans have in the Unit
ed States, it might be well to have
them made known and insisted upon.

ELOQUENT TRIBUTE.
To the Memory Of the Late
James Lick
BY Upham IN His Address at the Un-
yelling of the Lick Monument.

New York, April 24.-Samuel e.
Upham, in his address at the unveiline
of the Lick monument at Fredericks-
burg, Pa, said:
In the year 1919 young man in the
vigor of manhood and in whose lexicon
there was no such word as fail, left his
boyhood home in this beautiful valley
and the endearing associations of the
old hearthstone, to seek employment in
one of our large cities. He obtained a
situation in a Piano factory in Balti-
more and year later started in some
business for himself in the city of New
York, but failing to succeed for want
of capital, went soon after to Buenos
Ayers and then to Valparaiso, where
he devoted himself to his business of
Piano making for four years. He then
visited different places in Peru-re-
naming in that country eleven years.
Mr.. Lick arrived in California in the
year 1s47, with about $50, 900 which he
invested in real estate in San Francisco
and vicinity, and its rapid advance in
value caused by the discovery of gold
at Suffers mill, in that state, in the
month of January, 1s4S, and the large
immigration thither, soon made him a
second CrGsus.
Among his numerous bequests he did
not forget the far off home of his child
hood, and the loved ones whose dust
was mingling with the soil of the Key
stone state; and we are assembled on
this beautiful April day to unveil and
dedicate the sculptured marble erected
at his request, to the memory of his de-
voted mother and father and loving
sister and honored grandfather. The
mortal remains Of the great benefactor,
whose memory We honor to-day, lie
minsling with the dust of that far off
land he loved so well, and is so dear to
the heart of every true Californian.
There in that beautiful silent city of
the dead, near the portals of the Golden
Gate, with the roar of the waves of
the mighty Pacific ever singing his re-
QUEEN, he shall lie until the final day,
when earth and ocean shall give up
their dead, and this globe shall dissolve
with fervent heat and leave not a rock
behind.

Congressional Contest.

Washington, April 24.-General Fin
ny, who contests the seat of Bisbee,
of the second district of Florida, says
the revelations made by McLen and
Dennis, accord with the proofs he has
gathered in support of his claim to the
seat by confessions of the election frauds
in Florida in 1876. Montgomery Blair
says that he had information some time
ago that such confessions were to be or
had been made. He and others were
unable to conjecture where the original
papers containing the confessions are
to be found, if they have, as stated,
been sent to Washington.

Washington, April 24.-In response
to an inquiry upon the subject, Or.
Linderman has stated in an official

change for other kinds of money.
Holders of such may, however, sell them
to mints as bullion. At the present
price of silver they would realize about
93t cts. each, payable in gold coin or
standard silver dollars.

HOUSE.
Washington, April PA resolution
to begin the sessions at IL O'Clock, on
and after Monday next, was adopted.
Knott, chairman of the judiciary
committee, reported bill for the dis
tribution of the unexpended balance of
the Geneva award. Ordered printed
and recommitted. s~s
The House committee on Naval
Affairs agreed to report a bill recon-
mending that the claim of Mrs. Dahl
gren, for the Dahlgren gun, be referred
to the Court of Claims, with limit of
S65, 900.
After action on some miner bills
Sprinkler introduced bill authorizing
the Civil Service committee to ascertain
the numbers and proper changes of en-
ployes of the House.
Clymer, from the Appropriation COM
mittee, reported back the naval bill,
with the recommendations that the
House concur in thirty thousand of the
the senate. Agreed to.
The House then took up the business
on the Speakers table, and passed the
Senate bill authorizing the President to
make certain negotiations with the
Ute Indians in Colorado.
The Pacific railroad funding bill
being reached, Cox moved to pass it
after it was read. Butler raised a
point, which the Speaker concurred in,
that it must go to a committee of the
whole, and argued at length in support
Of his point, objecting especially to the
sinking fund sections. Frye said that
the Judiciary Committee, by vote of
five to four, had instructed him to move
to refer the bill to that committee, but
two absent members Of the committee
had since told him they would oppose
its reference. Several members of the
Judiciary committee here spoke, favor
ing the passage and opposing reference.
Cox said that the bill was drawn so
carefully that the railroads would not,
as heretofore, beat the government in
the courts. An ex-Judge of the SUI
preme Court had approved it, and an
eminent lawyer had drawn it up. Price
said he would vote for the bill with re-
gret, for he thought the Judiciary COM
mittee Should consider it, and he was
sure the fourth and fifth sections could
mean fundamentally different things,
and would open the door for just such
litigation as has heretofore occurred.
A vote on the passage of the bill result

OVER THE WAY.
What they say about War and
Peace.
Anarchy Already Existing in some Sec
tons.
Terrible State of Affairs


London, April 24.-The situation in
Bulgaria is regarded as significant, and
some papers believe it may accelerate
the course of negotiations. 1t is mani
fest that the Bulgarians are taking ter
rible revenge for the Turkish outrages
Of this year, and the whole country
may fall into condition of anarchy.
The Mussulmen are goaded to despair
by the tyranny of their former victims.
The country is sull of refugees from
scattered and disbanded armies and
garrisons Of the Turks. These form
the nucleus of the insurrection, and
they are joined by the inhabitants of
Mussulman villages, and carry on a
guerrilla warfare against christian and
Russian soldiers. Thus, although
peace is nominally established in the
East, anarchy reigns in Bulgaria as it
did before the war. The insurgents
are not fighting against Russia, but are
fighting for their own lives and honor.
Regarding the situation, the Times
says: while Europe is negotiating
about securing the blessings of peace
and freedom to Eastern lands, chris
tians and Mussulmen in Bulbarir are
flying at each others throats. The
whole country south of the Balkans is
in the condition which shocked Europe
twoyears ago. Russia for the moment
seems as powerless as Turkey was, and
it is time that Europe should again at
tempt to do collectively what no single
power has ever succeeded in doing"

other English journals characterize the
proposal as Bismarckian joke. The
Times thinks that the adjustment Of
details ought not to be impossible, and
says it is informed that Birnarck is
still making effort, independently Of

SLAMS and English from the vicinity of
Constantinople, to find basis for the
meeting of the congress.
