SENDING WARSHIPS
TO THE ISLANDS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1s.-The off,
Gals at the State and War departments
welcomed the announcement to the
American people through the Associ-
ated Press of the falsity of the stories
describing the friction between the
Filipinos and American forces in Lu-
zon. While the officers do not care to
discuss the matter for publication 1t
was evident that the main source of
their satisfaction was the internal evil
dence contained in the document that
Aguinaldo had profted by the warnings
of the American commanders and had
gracefully receded from the arrogant
attitude assumed by him just before
General Merritt left Manila for Paris.
While there is little in the official rec
ords that tends to contradict what the
insurgent chief says, still it must be
recalled that both General Merritt and
Admiral Dewey, in cable messages to
Washington, have pointed out the
threatening complications arising from
the attitude of the insurgents.
The Navy Department is rushing
preparations for the start of the big
battleshfps Oregon and Iowa to Homo
lulu, and orders have been sent to the
New York navy-yard to have the me-
chanics work overtime on these ships.
The purpose is to have them start on
their long voyage by the end of this
month, and, according to department

ALARM OVER CONDITION
OF SPANISH PRISONERS
BY SOL N. SHERIDAN.

Special cable to The Call and the New York
Herald Copyrighted, 1898, by James Cor
don Bennett
MANILA, Sept. 19.-The condition of
the Spanish prisoners is beginning to
excite anxiety among military officers
here. Eleven thousand of these pris-
oners are quartered in churches and
other buildings within the narrow con-
fines Of the walled city, where most of
the Spanish live, where the American
garrison is necessarily quartered, and
where General Otis has located the
army headquarters.
Members of the sanitary corps are
kept constantly at work clearing out
filth that accumulates, the Span
iards not having a knowledge of
che laws of sanitation. The result is q
condition threatening a general out
break Of some zymotic disease at any
moment. Typhoid fever is already in
creasing at an alarming rate.
The authorities feel 1t Is absolutely
essential to the health of the city to get
the Spanish prisoners out of Manila at
the earliest possible date. Similar con-
ditions are reported from Cavite, where
the Spanish in the hands of the rebels
are suffering for lack of the necessa-
ries of life.
To make matters worse, the sailing of
the hospital ship Rio has been repeat
eddy delayed. 1t is now stated that the
vessel will sail on Thursday. Probably
by that time she will have consider
able accession to her invalid passenger
list

AN ATTEMPT TO
POISON AGUINALDO

MANILA, P. l., Sept. 19.-The Repub-
lea Filipino asserts that an attempt
was made to poison Aguinaldo on Fri
day night. A steward 1t is alleged, saw
Spanish prisoner who had been all
lowed his freedom make a movement
which appeared like tampering with a
bowl of soup intended for Aguinaldo.
whereupon the steward tasted a spoon
full of the soup and fell dead. Eleven
Franciscan friars are alleged to have
been engaged in the conspiracy.
The populace, it Is further said, at
tempted to lynch all the Spanish pris-
oners, but Aguinaldo interviewed. At
Saturdays session Of the national as
sembly 1t appears Aguinaldo was alb
sent, but his representative related the
story of the outrage to the members.
who unanimously adopted the chair
mans proposal that they all go to
Aguinaldo's house, express sympathy
with him and congratulate him upon
his escape. During the evening a spe-
cial Thanksgiving service was held in
the church at Malolos.
Soup intended for Aguinaldo Is now
subjected, it is stated, to a chemical
analysis before being presented to the
insurgent leader, and the Spanish pris-
eners are kept closely confined.

TERRIBLE STORIES OF
ANARCHY IN CUBA

LONDON, Sept. 19.-The Havana
correspondent of the Times cables ter
rible stories of anarchy in Cuba and
says the American Government is ap-
parently attempting to suppress the
truth. AS an instance, he gives the
following story, which he declares
was suppressed by the censor at Key
West:
A band Of insurgents attacked re-
Gently the Providencia Cigar Factory
near Guines, one of the richest in Cuba,
The guerrilla force which the proprietor
maintained to defend his property un-
til the arrival of the Spanish troops
was obliged to surrender, because the
Spanish troops now do nothing to
suppress lawlessness. The insurgents
invaded the Enclosure, where they
found a lot Of reconcentrados. They
stripped the women naked, and plac-
ing them in line fired from behind
them at the guerrill1s. thus making IL
impossible for the defenders Of the fac
tory to return the fire.
The correspondent declares that the
most irremediable effect of the pro-
longed war in the island is the almost
total destruction Of the white popula-
ton, which has left Cuba almost as
black as Hayti.

HAVANA, Sept. 19.-The first work
Of the American Commission to-mor-
row will be to prepare second series
of propositions answering the Spanish
reply to the first series sent a week
ago to-day.
Secretary Girauta Of the Spanish
Commission was about to take a pom
derous document to the Resolute when
Major Glous called, and the response
was delivered to him. 1t somewhat dis
pleased the American Commissioners,
especially the date set for the compile
ton of evacuation, February %, 1899.
It has been suggested that the evacua-
ton should begin with Gibara, Nuevi-
tas, CienfuegoS and Havana in the or
der named, which is not in consonance
with the American terms of expert
menting with small port before be-
ginning at the capital. This was re-
garded as a desire on the part of the
Spaniards, according to the Americans
Judgment, to cling to the main source
of revenue as long as possible.
The Spanish reply also asks that the
soldiers be allowed to depart fully
equipped with flags flying The Ameri-
troops being placed at so large a figure
as $4,000. having expected fewer.
There has been no Spanish response
yet to the second demand of the Ameri-
can Commission in regard to the CO.
NAL, upon which the while question of
landing supplies depends. The big
Spanish mail steamer Alphonso XIII
leaves Tomorrow for Spain. One Of her
passengers will be Rear Admiral Pas
tor Landero, Captain of the Port,

Commissioners. Admiral Landlords

withdrawal from the commission.

calculations, they should arrive at
their destination by the end of Janu-

conceal the fact that the department
Will have the ships met at Honolulu by
dispatch boat with orders to turn
their prows westward to Manila
Battleships of this character are not
needed to keep the Filipino insurgents
IN order and their assembling at Ma
Mia, in conjunction with the dispatch
or heavy retnforcements of troops for
the American land forces, cannot but
be regarded as significant. In well-in-
formed circles here it is said that the
real purpose Of the President in MAX
Ing these preparations is to insure the
Peace Commissioners against any in
reference in their work of disposing
or the future of the Philippines, ac-
cording to their best Judgment. Not
having disclosed his plans respecting
the Islands outside of Luzon, the seat
or the capital Of the group, the Presi-
dent still reserves for the American
Peace Commissioners the right to dis
pose OF the remainder of the islands as
they may deem best.
A long line Of curious incidents. to
which one of the great European
powers has been a party, has beyond
question done much to cause a feeling
OF uneasiness on the part of the adj
mlnistration, as tending to show a pur-
pose to interfere in our free action in
the Philippines, and this has been only
slightly diminished by apparently
frank disclaimers of an Interior pur-
pose, because the incidents continue
quietly and in a manner calculated to
avoid attracting attention. Such. for
instance, is the gathering Of naval YES
sells to the south of the Philippine
group, the only explanation of which,
coming from native sources, it is true,
but still bearing marks of genuineness,
is purpose of acquiring either by seiz-
ure or by some secret pact with the
Spanish Government the important
island of Palawan
This particular island forms one side
Of the gateway through which must
pass all Of the extensive commerce that
floats between Australia, Micronesia
and Southern China. The passage is
narrow, and If the islands of the Phil
lppine group are to be retained, outside
Of Luzon, this island of Palawan must
be kept, forming one side of the gate
way. 1t is gathered that it is the pur-
pose, therefore. to prevent the aliena-
ton by Spain of any Of the Philippine
group, and that these preparations.
naval as well as military, are but steps
toward the execution of his purpose.
With the addition to his fleet of two
battleships Admiral Dewey will have a
force only second to that of Great Brit
ain in Eastern waters, while on shore
General Otis will have a more numer-
Gus army in the Orient than any Euro
pean power save Russia

MAKING A STRONG
FIGHT FOR LIFE
Frank Darby on Trial, Charged With
the Brutal Murder Of
Louis Boldiui.

FRESNO, CAL. Sept. 19.-The trial of
Frank Darby, charged with killing Louis
Boldini, was commenced here to-day. The
affair occasions considerable interest, ow-
ing to the prominence of young Darby.
Last June the young man went to
Whites Bridge to kill doves. He did lit
tie hunting. Instead he remained all the
afternoon in a saloon situated near the
bridge and late in. the afternoon Louis
Boldini, with a party in which was Lena
Castro, reached the place and went into
camp, Darby, by this II, time intoxicated
the bridge. About that time Boldini, who
had left the camp. returned and was shot
down as he attempted to cross the bridge.
and his blood flowed through the cracks
in the bridge to her feet as she crouched
in hiding. No one saw Darby fire the shot
but the evidence against him is strong.
He is making strong fight for his life,
being represented by four attorneys
Lewis H Smith. R. E. Rhodes, A. C.
williams and Frank Short. He has had a
number of private detectives working up
his case for him.

The case Of the state versus j.
?. Galloway was continued this
morning before Justice Craw-
ford, not in the examination of
witnesses but in the forensic con-
tention that Mr.. Galloway, hav-
ing been granted a license to sell
liquor In Marion county, had not
violated the law. The audience
was large and appreclatlve, and
as its opinion prevailed on
one side or the other Of the cues
ton, it was plainly to be seen
that the eloquent pleaders en-
listed its sympathy and approval.
Up to noon the case was still be-
fore the court and it didn't seem
at that time that any witnesses
would be called on the stand to-
day, even if the court deciird
against Mr.. Galloway as an lille
gal vender OF liquors.
