Secretary Johnson of the mining con-
gress leaves this morning for Denver,
Colorado Springs and perhaps one or
two other Colorado cities on business
for the congress. The trip is made at
the suggestion of Irwin Mahon, secre-
tary OF the congress held in Denver last
year. who wrote that he believed it
would contribute very materially to the
success Of the congress, if some one
connected with the committee would
visit Denver and one or two other min
ing centerS of Colorado and talk up the
congress to the people most interested
in the industry there. While he is in
Denver, Mr.. Johnson will secure the

STOLE GIBBS HORSE.
Some Miscreant Rides the Animal
AWAY.

Some mongrel horsethief yesterday
caused some CONSERVATION among the
officers at the station. by stealing the
I bay charger belonging to Lieutenant
Gibbs. The horse was tethered to a
hitching post Immediately in front of
the station, in company with the null
ti-colored Pegasus of r. W. Young
When the lieutenant returned to where
he had left the horse about an hour
after the arrival at the station,
and became aware OF its disappearance,
he was encountered by a woman, who
informed the officer that she had seen
large bewhiskered gentleman mount
the charger and disappear towards the
city. The lieutenant at once formed a
SQUAD, who made a search for the thief
and the lost quadruped, but only a
short time remained, and the search
was without avail. So the lieutenant
was obliged to leave unaccompanied by
his mount. Late last evening there was
a movement afoot among some patriotic
Salt Lakers to present the lieutenant
with another horse.
Lieutenant Gibbs is least able of all
the men to purchase a horse and the
loss he sustains by the theft of his ami
NAL falls very heavily upon him The
horse was years old, a blood bay. with
three white feet, two before and one
behind. he had on a government
saddle, bride and halter. Owing to
the fact that Lieutenant Gibbs had
owned him but a few hours, he could
not describe the brand.

VANDALISM BY TROOPS.
New Jersey Men Defaced the Costly
Senate Doors

Washington, May 20.-Two members
of the New Jersey volunteers, which
stopped in this city en- route to the
front, were arrested today by the civil
authorities, on a charge of vandalism.
The troops were in cars side tracked at
the Baltimore q Ohio depot, and each
of the men secured leave of absence
early this morning, to visit and inspect
the capitol. After they had left it was
discovered that some one had been de-
facing the much priced bronze doors
on the east side of the senate wing The
work consisted of scratching two names
on the door. and the breaking off of the
few pistol points left by other vandals
The names were those of Robert Kel-
lett and r. r. Hyland. They were i'm
mediately traced to their headquarters.
The doors are considered a fine work
of art. They cost originally $56,0OO and
1t will be difficult to erase the names,
as they were written in deeply.
Later in the day the two men were
arraigned in police court and acknowl-
edged their guilt. The judge fined them
50 each. The fine was paid by Major
II. W. Freeman of the regiment, who.
with tears in his eyes, made this COM
ment to the court: The men have
disgraced themselves, their state and
me, but while they are guilty, l ask
for mercy because of their Ignorance"

In the Cortes-Sagasta's Speech.

Madrid, May 20.-The ministers, in
full uniform, appeared in the senate to-
day. Owing to the circumstances, the
new cabinet is already nicknamed the
"circumstantiai cabinet
The premier, Senior Sagasta, ex-
planned the ministerial crisis and as
serted that the new ministry would
continue the policy of the former min
istry. He related how Spain did every
thing to avoid war until America, vio-
lating all recognized diplomacy. at
tackled Spain with an injustice unprece-
dented in the annals of civilized his
tory, and compelled Spain to respond
with war to war, which SPAIN would
continue to the utmost until an honor
able peace is obtainable."
This the premier continued, 'iS a
strong policy, and the new government
will also energetically conduct negotia-
tions with European and other states"
Count Penaramiro proposed the SEN
ate's congratulations to Admiral Ger
vera on his arriving safely at Santiago
de Cuba, and "cleverly lodging the
American squadrons."
Captain Aunon, the minister of ma
rine, responded in the name of the navy

doing so he said the arrival of the
Spanish squadron in Cuban waters
would cement the friendship of the Gu
bans with Spain and will prove to the
world that Spain will never abandon
Cuba while the mother country retains
her vitality
The congratulations were voted unan-
imously.
In the chamber Senior Sagasta re-
peated his senate speech. He explained
that the cabinet changes were due to
the fact that several ministers were
ill and extremely fatigued after the re-
cent anxieties."
He said the cabinet found itself con-
fronted with war or dishonor, and ac-
cepted the former, adding solemnly:
THE Spanish government will never
accept peace if the territorial integrity
of Spain is not maintained, and other
wise Spain is determined to fight a tout

Later Senior Sagasta promised a day
to debate the Red Book"

The stock market was stagnant yes

the Utah volunteers were leaving for
the Philippines, and consequently the
adjourned call in the afternoon was but
poorly attended, while the transactions
were exceedingly limited.
The call was made as usual, however,
although but small change was regis
tered in the governing quotations. The

the Children.
The city schools were, as a rule,
closed yesterday, in order to give pu-
pills and teachers an opportunity to
view the parade, and to contribute
their part in bidding good-by to the
young men who have risked their lives
in defense of their flag. Superintend-
cnt AfilsDaugh gave directions to close
the schools in the forenoon. and to have
ii session in the afternoon, but the
lato-ess of the hour in which the vol
uLteers took their final leave preclud-
ed the possibility of bringing the pu-
pills together for the afternoon, and the
contemplated session was abandoned.
In a few of the schools, however, a brief
session was held, and dismissals were
made for the remainder of the day
The children from the various schools
collected flowers in great profusion, as
directed by DR.. NIillspaugh, and pre-
scented them to the youthful soldiers
while passing through the city. They
also accompanied them to the depot, to
witness their departure. and to show
their patriotism in the grand cause in
which their country is now engaged.

soldiers to leave their homes for the

Ogden, May 21.-Ogden turned out
en- masse to meet and honor the volun-
teers as they passed through for the
west. The people began gathering at
the depot about 2 o'clock, owing to the
supposition that the train would arrive
about that time, but as it did not ar
rive till about o'clock the depot was
thronged with a crowd numbering up
into the thousands all the afternoon.
There was no set programme, but SIM
ply a spontaneous outpouring of people
of all ages. The public schools were
dismissed at 2:30 and about 1000 school
children were at the depot when the
train finally came in. The fire depart
ment was on hand with all the appa-
ratus decorated in honor of the two
members, Tyree and Hall, who left the
department TO join the volunteers. The
fire department also had a cannon with
which they fired salutes when the train
came in and when it went out. The
train remained at the depot a little
over an hour giving an opportunity for
the Ogden boys to meet again for few
moments with their relatives and
friends, but the demonstration was not
alone for the Ogden. lads. People by the
thousands thronged the cars, shook
hands alike with friends and strangers
and exchanged souvenirs with the boys
in blue.
