ROGERS RoWED GOOD RACE.
Failed However to Beat Jake Gaudaur
Yesterday.

Orillia, Ont, May 24.-In the presence
or fully 10000 people Erastus Rogers
proved today that he is very fast sculler
at two miles as he came within length
and half of defeating Jake Gaudaur.
Inc race was for the championship of
America, the Fox challenge cup, $500 q
SIDE and purse presented by Orillia.
q Lake Couchiching was alive with
Grant, A stiff northwest wind prevailed
and made the water lumpy. The two
men got away on very even terms, the
champion splashing little for the first
lew strokes. Both stroked slow on ac-
count of the unfavorable wind and
weather. Both steered in shore. Rogers
mad the shore position. At Couchiching
peach, half a mile from the start Gau-
dallr was clear from Rogers and crossed
ms DOW to get close to the shore. He
continued to forge ahead and at the turn,
d mlle away was about four lengths in
advance. Rogers, however, had steered
petter course and the champion lost
nearly all his advantage in going out to
the buoy.
Inc return home was fine struggle
Both men were very tired and Gaudaur
SAID after the race that he suffered greatly
from cramps in the forearms, caused by
handling his oars in the rough water
Rogers pulled very plucky race, but
was unable to pass the champion who
won by q length and half. Gaudaur
said he had never rowed harder race
in his life but he was satisfied he could
beat Rogers easily in smooth water. An
amateur race between J. A. Rumohr of
Toronto and DIR. Mcdowell of Chicago
was very unsatisfactory. Shortly after
starting, Rumohr fouled DIR. NJ cDowell.
The referee gave him another chance, but
in his anxiety to get in smooth water he
repeated the foul. The doctor then
sculled over the course alone

GRAVE AND THE GAY.
Mouse Hears Announcement of Death of
Member and Listens to One of Jerry
Simpsons Outbreaks.

Washington, May 24.-Some of the
members of the minority were prepared
when the House met today to attempt to
force consideration of the Senate Cuban
belligerency resolution in the face OF the
declared determination of the Republicans
not to allow action for the present and
despite the protest of the South Carolina
members who desired to announce the
death of Senator Earle, an announcement
which would be followed Immediately by
an adjournment.
But during the reading of the journal
the Cuban enthusiasts yielded to the
solicitations of the South Carolina mem
bers and then the House adjourned.
The only incident of the session was a
brief continuation of Mr.. Simpsons fight
against the Speaker.
AS soon as the journal had been read
ne objected to- q line in the journal which
recorded that a private pension bill had
been referred to the committee on invalid
pensions on the ground that no such
committee existed.
II want the journal to show the truth, u
said he, ''and [ move to strike out that
line
Mr.. Henderson and Mr.. Dalzell, pointed
out that the rules provided for references
and such references were also made pend
ing the appointment of committees.
The committee decided that Mr.
Simpsons motion was in order.
The House promptly voted down Mr..
Simpsons motion, 40 to 81 and approved
the journal, 80 to IS.
Thereupon Mr., Elliot was recognized
and announced the death of Senator
Earle, which he said, occurred under cir
cumstances almost tragic in their nature.
Later, Mr.. Elliot said he would ask the
House to fix. day when suitable tri-
butte might be paid to his memory.
He then offered the customary resolu-
tons which were adopted.
Then, as a further mark of respect, the
H ouse adjourned until Thursday.

FOUND AN IMAGE OF BupHA.
at Onset Bay Fairly Beside
Themselves.

Onset Bay, Mass, May 23-Theosophists
and others at Onset Bay camp grounds
are in considerable of a furry because of
a precipitated message from the Mahat1nas
said to have been promulgated through
the mediumship of Henry B. Foulke,
we'll known leader of the followers of
Nine. Blavatsky. The communication
is addressed to Annie Besant, Countess
Wackmeister and the asserted leaders of
the theosophical movement in the West.
The wizard of the Inner Circle, who, it
is claimed, indicated this remarkable
communication, believed here to be
fraught with the greatest Importance to
the thinking and spiritual world, made
known his authorship by signing the
name ''Morio'' across the face OF the
parchment in bold and striking hand.
The message is of considerable length,
containing much that is purely personal.
Among other things it says, the theoso-
phists, having chosen their own leaders
by votes and proxies of societies, are re-
ssponslble for their own failure as can
be seen IN the decadent quality OF tnelr
past years propaganda.
1t is only by following out the plans
winch we have arranged in the past,
plans Wnlch originate in psychic 1aculUles,
that further and growing sehisms can be
avoided. The present leaders are eau
toned to listen to the warning note ut
tered at the Landsdowne convention in
1889 against the choice of leaders who are
denied by the powers who make theoso-
ply a divine wisdom.
Mr.. FoulAe says that this message APP
pears to be the result of conference
held at Onset Bay earlier in the present
month when the Countess di Braza, Miss
Rose Moore and party were his guests.
He says that the Countess ransacked the
cottage and produced an idol, the famous
image of Budha which acquired
notoriety in the excitin times in theoso-
phical circles just subsequent to the pas
sing on to the higher life of Nine.
Blavatsky and which the late President
William @. Judge, of the society in
America ridiculed so persistently, though
he failed to lessen it's secret powers IN the
minds of the faithful disserters from the
Judge regime.
The countess placed this image of mys-
terry on the table in the reception room of
the Foulk cottage, decked with flowers
and besought it to deliver the warning
elements and lead them to seek peace
and find it at the Onset Bay camp
ground This act, followed by the pre-
cipitation of the communication, has had
a marked effect upon the theosophists
hereabouts.

KING PARTY ARRIVES IN BOSTON.
Fifteen Hundred People Waiting At Uni OIL
Station.

Boston, May 24.-Under the strict sur
VIGILANCE of Inspector Collins of the
local police force, Albert NJ King, the
Maynard messenger of the Boylston bank
arrived in this city tonight accompanied
by his father, Samuel NJ King, and
his attorney, John K. Berry.
The trip from Farminton, Maine, took
exactly seven hours, and other than the
crowds at the Different stations at
which the train st opped the journey was
without incident. The party left the
scene of Kings arrest at 2.30 and rode to
Portland in the baggage car, where In
espector Collins managed to evade great
er part of the hundreds of curious people
and the party We're soon in the COM
partment of the Pullman of the "Flying
Yankee" Of Boston express, which was
standing on the adjoining track. Here
the party went to the refreshment room
IN the station for the wait was IS min
utes in length. King did not want any
thing to eat and so was left alone in the
car. During the remainder of the trip
King had nothing to say and he paid no
attention to the crowds at every station
passed. At Portsmouth there was a
snorU Walt anu tne curious crowd OUTSIDE
tried hard to get look at King.
At Union station in this city a crowd
of nearly 1900 people surged at the gates
as the headlight of the engine flashed in
sight outside the depot. By the time the
train came to a stop half the crowd
had managed to get inside the gate about
the Pullman. 1t took force of nearly
q dozen policemen assisted by as many
trainmen to keep the crowd back, but
again Inspector Collins managed to get
his charge through without hindrance.
A carriage was in waiting over on the
baggage room side of the depot and the
party was rapidly driven to police head
quarters Here young King was asked
a few questions, his description taken
and other formalities gone through, then
after a short consultation with Deputy
Hanscom, his father and Lawyer Berry
babe him good night and he was taken
to the city prison and locked up.
Tomorrow he will be arraigned in the
municipal court, but his lawyer will
probably waive examination, and he
will be bound over to the term of the
grand jury without hearing.
]. Mr.. Samuel M. King expressed himself
as being greatly relieved that the trip
was over, but other than this had moth
ing to say regarding his son.

Young Embezzler At Union Station
On Way TO Boston.
ABOUT FIFTY PERSONS THERE TO
SEE YOUNG MAN.
The Pathetic Meeting of Father and Son
AT Farmington-Young Man Leaves
State Without Requisition Papers--In-
terview With Mr.. King Senior In Au-
bnrn.

When the Harrington train arrived at
the Union station, at 5.45, there were
about 1fty people congregated between
two OF the tracks, awaiting its arrival. in
the anticipation of getting a sight of
King. There would have been twice that
number of boys added to the company,
had the police officer stationed there al
lowed them to cross the tracks.
The train stopped about two car
lengths nearer the outer entrance than
usual, so that the baggage car in which
young King was incarcerated was left
directly opposite the parlor car of the
Boston express, due to leave over the east
e1n division at o'clock. King was
quickly escorted through the forward
entrance of the baggage car and into the
c@respon ding end of the parlor car, so
that the only sight the crowd had of him
was as he descended the baggage car
steps, crossed the platform and was half
lifted up the steps of the parlor car.
They could also see him as he passed
through the car to the private apartment,
the curtains of which were closely drawn.
The young man looked haggard and
detected. He scarcely raised his eyes as
he was hurried from one train to another.
His father, a courteous appearing man,
about forty years of age, slight of stature
and with countenance which reflected
the burden of sorrow that has weighed
down upon his heart since his son became
criminal, walked by the young mans
side. On the other side strobe Inspector
Collins of Boston, the official custodian
of the prisoner. Lawyer Berry of Boston,
counsel and relative of King, was also
present. These four made the trip from
Portland to Boston in the closed apart
ment of the parlor car.
q Mr.. King the father, left his som S
presence before the train started, long
enough to visit the Union station cafe,
where he slipped a cup of coffee and ate
a light lunch.

WILL BE INDICTED
The Grand Jury Investigating Col
lector Wellburn's Case

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. st is un-
derstood that the federal grand jury to-
day decided to return indictments
against ex-Collector Wellburn. The in
dictments We're not formally returned
and will not be until the next sitting of
the grand jury or perhaps not for week
yet. The evidence has all been taken
Just how many distinct charges will be
included is not known.
Ex-Chief Deputy Loupe and Messen-
ger billiard were the principal witnesses
heard today. billiard repeated what he
testified to before the commissioner
that he signed Aiken's name to the
voucher and endorsed the pay checks,
and then got them cashed and turned
the money over to Welburn, except in
one or two cases, when he turned it over
to Loupe at Welburn's direction. He
wrote Aiken's name at Welburn's order.
Loupe's testimony was corroborative
Of that of billiard as to those transac-
tions in which he had any share. He
testified that he had no knowledge that
everything was not right, nor any rea-
son to suppose it was not.
