washington. June s.-Nothing is known in official
circles here OF the reported secreng Of arms by the
Itata before her surrender TO Admiral McCann II Is
assumed from Admiral McCann's reports to the Navy
Department that the insurgents have been acuhg IN
good faith throughout, but in any event the arms ana
ammunition will cut smaller figure IN the legal pro-
ceedings than was at first supposed; and even If some
OF them have been landed in Chin, IL Is doubtful II TINS
Government has reason to complain. The libel against
the Itaa rests entirely upon her record while in United
States waters and In the harbor Of san Diego 1t Is
charged that while In that habor she did or was about
to do certain acts in violation OF the neutrality laws
According to the advces already received the arms
she carried not taken aboard at San Diego or Id
the United States and therefore she might have landed
them in Chill without complaint, so far as the present
libel is concerned The fact that she took arms aboard
at sea might be Of importance during the trial as ev
dence tending TO sustain the libel In Its allegation OF
her purpose break the neutrality laws but oral evil
dence on that point would be as effective as the pro
ducton of the arms in court.
So 1t appears that there no absolute necessity
for the surrender Of any OF the TO Admiral NC

Walker>st stood a crowd Of young toughs, some
twelve or fifteen In number
The Doctor was accosted by two OF them, who In
sisted that he should enter saloon and take drink
with them. To this the Doctor objected In a polite
but firm manner at the time thanking the fellows
for their Invitation
His refusal was not TO their HIKING, but the doctor
nrain refused and made an attempt to get away
Seeing that their victim was determined In his
refusal one OF struck the doctor blow in the face
knocking him down. The rest Of the gang then TOOK
a hand and kicked and pummelled the doctor until ne
was nearly unconscious. The noise and shouts OF ms
assalants attracted the attention Of policeman, VINO
hurried to the spot The assallants seeing the officer
approaching turned and fed. During the melee two
valuable rings that the doctor wore were pulled from
his fingers and carried off.
The man was unable to move. After time he was
lifted TO his feet and assisted by the officer and some
citizens taken to the Elizabethst stationhouse An
ambulance was called but the doctor preferred to be
