CRUISE OF THE MONTERREY.
The Big FlOnting Battery Leaves San
Diego for the south.

y SAN DIEGO. Cal, April 12.-The coast
defense vessel Monterey departed from
here with more secrecy than is usually the
case when vessel leaves leisurely
cruise. The fact that Lieutenant Baker.
of General McCooks staff arrived in haste
from Denver and Is believed to have en-
barked on the Monterey adds to the mys-
terry of her destination. A hint was cropped
by one of the officers before sailing that
the vessel was going to Corinto and that

The sudden illness of Surgeon Whiting as

attempt was made to secure another off,
Ger in his stead for the cruise, but owing
to the short stay of the Monterey it was
impossible, and he sailed with his ship.
Tho cruiser Olympic is not expected until
next week, and it is stated that her stay
will be as brief as the Monterey, merely
long enough to replenlsh coal and hurry

COLUMBUS. Ind, April 12.--The mys-
terry surrounding the grave of Charles De
Pauw, which was found here few days
ago, has been cleared away. DePauw was
one of the first men to come to this coun-
ty. and was a purchaser of three of the
first lots offered for sale in this city. These
lots were sold by him, a short time before
his DEATH to men who have long since died.
His remains will be removed to this city.
Hon. Joseph /. Irwin has received the ap-
pended letter from Mr.. n. T. DePauw, of
New Albany:
II see in to-day's indianapolis Journal
a sensational article about my great-uncle,
Charles DePauw, who was one of the
early settlers of your city, and whose tomb
was erected by another great-uncle, N. B.

understood that the ground which
Charles DePauw was buried belonged to

To the Editor of the Indi snapolis Journal:
Your Columbus correspondent is too young
to give a correct history of olden times here.
Instead OF the place where Colonel Charles
DePauw was buried being a wilderness
sixty years ago the writer remembers that
more than sixty years ago he gathered
luscious ripe peaches from an orchard less
than a hundred yards from the grave. and
instead of no Travelled road being within
IA mile of the place of burial. a State road
from Columbus to Bloomington was less
than a quarter of a mile away and the
old Mauek's ferry road. from Mauckport,
on the Ohio river northward, was less than
three-quarters of a mile from the place.
Mr.. DePauw was a colonel of the Indiana
militia and a much respected young man.

SLAUGHTER In PERU
An EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT OF THE
BLOODY FIGHTING AT CALLAO.
Five Thousand People Killed by bull
let's and Fire and Left Unburied
Until the Bodies Decomposed.

NEW YORK. April 12-Among the pas
sengers who arrived on the Alliance, from
Colon to-day, was Henry Wilson, a Liver
pool merchant, who has been in Peru for
eight years. Mr. Wilson told graphic
story of the fighting in Peru during March
and described in vivid terms the fight be-
tween the Montanas and the government
troops. which resulted in the death of five
thousand people by shot and fire. The real
cause of the revolution in Peru. as Mr..
Wilson understands, is the effort made
by Caceras. who was President for one
term. to gain control of the nation by
buying out Vice President Sator on the
death of President Bermodas. President
Bermodas was in office for three years,
after serving which time he died. Sator was
the Vice President and Mr.. Wilson says,
in order to get him out of the way he
was bought out by Caceras, who imme-
diately assumed the reins of the nation.
The fight in which so many soldiers and
insurgents We're KILLED began at 3 o'clock
in the afternoon of March II, when the
Montanas, under cover of fog, took pos
session of Piercola. All the telegraph
wires connected with the city were cut and
all the roads leading into it were blocked.
and took up position in the
middle of the city. near the pub
lie plaza. This occupation of Cal
lao occurred three days following
the invasion of the insurgents, and was the
cause of the insurgents clashing with the
troops. In the fight during the day which
followed, in the city, two thousand men
were killed, equally divided between the
two armies. In addition to this about three
thousand people were killed by the fire
which all but wiped the city out of exist
ence. These bodies were allowed to remain
in the streets for three days and then the
stencil became SO fearful and sickness
spread SO rapidly, a truce was declared be-
tween the two parties until they could be
buried. Two men were chosen to represent
the, government and two the insurgents,
and these four men selected fifth. Togeth-
er truce was agreed upon, to last until the
dead bodies could be buried At the time
the party of which MIR. Wilson Is "a member
left Peru, eighteen hundred out of the thou
sands of men and women killed had been
buried. They left there on March 16
During ali the time the fight was in prog
ress between the government troops ana in
ana Lima, which is eight miles distant, was
cut off, with the exception of one time,
when an iron-bound car, manned by soldiers,
fought it's way from CaIlao to Lima, killing
scores of insurgents in its passage. The tenn
porary truce was to remain in force in Peru
until after the bodies of the dead are dis
posed of, and the city is rid of the diseases
which the. stencil induced.

There does not seem 20 be any reason
for doubling that Secretary Smith VIII b
a candidate for United States senator tc
succeed Senator Gordon. If anybody Is
authorized TO speak for him on this sub
ject. Mr.. Cabaniss Of the Atlanta Journal
ought 10 be. In an interview in the New
York Times Of last Sunday Mr.. Cabaniss
is quoted as saying that he thinks Il
possible that MIR. Smith will be a candi-
date" This means. of course. that AIr
Smith has about made UP his mind 10
be a candidate.
AIr. Cabaniss speaks Of only three can
didates. namely. Mr.. duBignon. Mr..
Smith and Judge Crisp. and from this it
is TO be inferred that, in his opinion. the
contest will be between these three. He
classes Mr.. duBignon and Mr.. Smith as
sound money men and Judge Crisp as
a silverite.
1t is quite a while yet before there will
be an active campaign for the senator
ship and when il does begin IL is by no
means certain that there will be only three
candidates. 1t is not at all unlikely that
AAANAN " ia UE a mali uDLt4A OF A4aU4t falall-
dates at the outset. 1t is also too early
to say just what the issue Of the cam
paign will be. Ii looks now as If the sill
yer question would be the leading, if not
the only, one. Stll, even the silver ques-
ton may lose much Of its Importance
before next summer. Should there be a
steady Improvement in the material con-
dition of the country, or should the pres
ent congress at its first session pass a
banking law that would promise an in
crease in the currency in localities that
now complain of a scarcity Of 1t. the sill
yer issue would cease to have the i'm
portance it now has.
Mr.. Smith has not. of course the perso-
nal popularity of either Mr.. duBignon or
Judge Crisp. In order to get a following
that would give him hope of success he
would have to be the recognized leader
of one side or other of an issue in which
the people arc profoundlyss Interested.
The silver question may be such an is
sue and II certainly looks now as IL it
would be. If it should not be, however,
and the candidates should depend upon
personal popularity for success Mr..
Smiths prospects at the beginning of the
campaign would not be as bright as those
Of some Of the other candidates. No one,
of course, doubts that he is a brainy man
and that he has many friends in the state,
but he has not been brought into very
close relations with the people of the
state, and prior to his becoming Secre-
tary of the Interior had very little po-
litical prominence.
