THE FACULTY AND
STUDENTS AT PEACE
DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS ARE
THOROUGHLY ESTABLISHED.
Freshmen Show Flag of Truce, the
Faculty Accepts Hostages and
Harmony Reigns.

BERKELEY, Oct. 1.-THE concluding
episode in the recent rush" trouble at
the University of California has occurred
to-day. The difficulty is now permanently
settled and in a manner which, without in
the least compromising the authority of
the faculty leaves the student body per-
fectly satisfied and well disposed toward
the powers that be.
The solution of the whole trouble was a
master stroke of policy upon the part of
the students affairs committee. They had
It in their power to inflict upon the men
that rushed the severest penalty col
leee student can suffer. They also faced
the necessity of administering some sort
of discipline to prevent a future breaking
of the facuity's rules. The course they
have adopted avoids altogether the grave
results OF expulsion which II was reared
might ensue and at the same time 1t puts
all further campus tuSselS on the part or
the students out of the question.
The students affairs commltIee, consist S13,I
ing of Professors Thomas r. Bacon, Will
liam Carey Jones and George q. Edwards,
have been carrying on their lnvestlgaIlon
ever since the last rush occurred Iney
have summoned before them in all about
fifty students freshmen, sophomores ana
Juniors, whom they had reason to suspect
were in any way connected Win tne Ieud.
While they found several who had taken
part in the affair, they could not TX the
responsibility upon any In particular. Ac.
cordingly they have chosen from Out OF
whose influence and example could pre-
vent rush, IL such an occurrence seemed
imminent These men have been taken
on as hostages with the understanding
that If any more outbreaks happen they
shall suffer immediate expulsion from the
university.

NO DANGER OF BLooDsHED.
Letona, Ezeta's Old Enemy, Now in
the CITY


General L. Letona of the Central Amer
lean Republic arrived here Wednesday af-
ternoon on the steamship City of Pan
anna and put up at the Occidental.
Residing in the city for some time past
is General Carlos Ezeta, erstwhile dicta-
tor of Salvador, and thereby hangs a
tale. 1t seems that when the Ezeta
brothers ruled Salvador with an iron
hand Letona in some way incurred the
displeasure of Carlos and narrowly es-
capped being put to death. Stripped of
rank and fortune, he escaped across the
border and there awaited one of those
turns of the tide which come so fire.
quently in the affairs of the Central
American republics Returning from ex-
lie when the Ezetas were driven from
Salvador he was warmly welcomed by
the new President, WHO restored him to
rank and fortune.
Since that time he has had no very
kindly feelings toward his old enemy-in-
deed, the impression has prevailed here
that meeting between the two generals
might result in bIoodshed.

A DISGUISED NEGRO.
Complains to the Supervisors Against
Chief Lees.

G. c. Davis, lightning negro mathema-

his rights as an American citizen from
the Board of Supervisors. He claims. in
a communication addressed to the board
yesterday. that Chief of Police Lees has
prevented him from carrying on his busi-
ness as a mathematical blackboard de-
monstrator upon the streets of San
Francisco, having driven him forcibIy I'M
der cover, while at the same time per
hitting white takers of all sorts and
conditions to ply their nefarious voca-
lions upon the public highway. Davis
says that the Chief is manifestly unfair
to eolored people, and he thinks that it
is about time that the Supervisors called
him down.

WHITES IN DANGER.
Negroes at Pana. III Shot at
White People for Pasiime.

Pana, ILL.,, November H.
The imported negroes. non
union miners. here are becom-
ing reckless and the union
white miners are growing rest
less. Troops from Blooming
ton remain on duty here. but
almost nightly in the Flat
hall' district the negro resid-
ents practice shooting at any
white man that passes. The
negroes have been heavily
armed by the mine operators.
Last night the residences of
several white miners were shot
into with Winchesters in the
hands OF the colored men. A
white widows cottage was
pierced repeatedly with bullets.
Several charges barely missed
her three children.
The militia say that they can
not apprehend the cuIprits.
Captain T. P. Butler, in com
mand. is apparently acting en-
tirely under orders of Sheriff
Cooura and not following the
instructions of Governor Tan
ner. gwen before election. Col
onel Butler when asked TO
disarm the negroes said it was
useless, for the sheriff would
arm them again.
1t is reported that a large
contingent of outside union
white miners will soon arrive
in Pana. A consignment of
100 rifles was received here
today for citizens who intend
protecting their property and
families. claiming no protec-
ton is given them by the
sheriff or troops.
