Last night the largest crowd
that has ever graced the platform
of the Santa Fe depot gathered
there for the purpose of bidding
a long farewell to the fifteen vol
unteers who took their departure
for Pueblo to pass the final exam
nation to become soldiers for their
country and flag.
AT 5;l5 in answer to a call, there
was splendid turn out of the
Florence Rifles to escort the boys
to the depot, five of the volunteers
being members of that organiza-
ton. They made good appear
ance, and the citizens of Florence
should be proud of them. A num-
Der of the bands membership also
turned out, and to martial music
the column left the town hall at
$3.50 to march to the station.
/ Many heart was sad at the
thought of parting with loved
one, and many tears were shed,
yet upon the whole it was quite
cheerful crowd which told them
goodbye.
Captain Harris, of the Rifles,
led the Rifles in giving three
cheers and tiger, for the volun-
teers, which was returned by them,
and after hand shakings were
over and the train had gone, the
crowd slowly dispersed, us if 10th
to part, knowing that the empty
chair, and the lack of a familiar
voice would ever bring memories
of the kindness of those who had
left, mayhap never to return.
AS the train pulled out, the
Rifles and band formed in their
respective columns, and marched
back to the town hall where they
were dismissed by Captain Harris.

RfQUISITION HONORfD
FOR THE EXTRADITION OF MRS.
BOTKIN
Governor Budd Gives a Decision Which
Will Be at Once Taken to the
Supreme Court

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5.-Governor
Budd this afternoon decided that Mrs Cor
della Botkn must go to Delaware to stand
trial for the murder of Mrs. John P. Dunn
ing and Mrs. Joshua Deane.
He will honor the requisit.on of the gov
cor of Delaware and order the issuance
Of his warrant for the delivery of Mrs
Botk!n to Detective McVey, the agent of
the state of Delaware.
Last Saturday Chief of Police Lees re-
ce.ved the new set of requisition papers and
on Monday they were submitted to Gov
ernor Budd ~
Today he gave his opinion. He SAID two
questions, which had received careful con-
sideratio presented themselves.
Flrst-Cculd Mrs. Botkin be tried in this
state for the crime of murder?
Second-Was she legally fugitive from
the justice of state in which she had
never beer?
TAore was wide divergence # opfni crs
among attorneys whether or not she could
be tried here
There was one supreme court decision
upon the question of her being fugitive,
and in that case two justices held that the
defendant was and three that she was not.
The governor did not believe that she was.
but thought the law should be tested, and
IL it be defective it could be amended. For
that reason he would issue the reQuisition
papers and Mrs. Botkin's attorneys could
carry the matter to the suprem court on
habeas corpus.

A BATH KILLED HIM
A British Visitor Found Dead at St.
Louis

AOulS
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 5-Hon. William Strut.
aged about 25 years, son of Lord Belper.
of Kingston, Derbyshire, England, who is
the brother of the Countess of Dunmore.
was found dead in the bath-tub in his
apartments at the West End Hotel at
am. today. His body was entirely SUBJ
merged in the water that filled the tub.
The last seen of the young man was at 2
O'Clock Monday afternoon. 1t Is not known
what caused death. The remains have
been moved to the morgue to await the
inquest. The remains were discovered by
Herman Alweis and Lottie Piper, man
and maid servant respectively of the young
man, who occupied suite Of apartments
on the fifth floor Of the fashionable West
End Hotel. From its condition the BODY
must have been in the tub for some time
The hotel people were Immediately noti-
fled and the Coroner took charge of the
remains for the purpose of learning the
cause of death.
The Countess of Dunmore, who Is stop-
ping with friends in the city, is an aunt of
the dead man. She was notified of his
death, but as her whereabouts are kept
a secret nothing has been learned from
her concerning Mr.. Strut. He attended
the Yelled Prophets ball last night.
Deceased came to this city August Is
and took apartments at the hotel where
he died. He was here apparently on
pleasure and sightseeing tour, and not
very much was known about him.
A prominent citizen with whom
the deceased dined recently is of the opin-
ion that Mr.. Strut died of heart disease
The young man, he said, was travelling for
his health and he thinks the shock re-
ceived in taking a cold bath had fatal
effect.

FILIPINO HOPES
The One Thing Wanted Is Freedom
From Spain


NEW YORK, Oct. 5-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
Senator William E. Chandler has Just
ended a brief visit to Washington, return
ing to his home in New Hampshire and
expecting to remain in that State until
after the election. Before his departure
the Senator said in relation to the Phil
ippine question:
"Since the arrival in Washington of Senior
Felipe Agoncillo and his secretary, Senior
Sixto Lopez of Manila, have had several
extended interviews with Senior Agoncillo
and have endeavored to familiarize myself
with his plans. He represents President
Aguinaldo and the Parliamentary govern
ment of which he Is at the head. His first
desire is that the treaty of Paris shall pro-
vide that Spain shall wholly relinquish
the Philippines, and, secondly, he is anx-
ious that the experiment of self-government
may be tried by the people of the islands,
with the assent and assistance of the
United States. It seems very clear that
the people of the islands will not submit to
Spanish rule from which they are now
freed, and therefore If the United States
forces should be withdrawn and Spain
should attempt to resubdue the islands, a
bloody struggle would ensue, the existence
of which would dishonor the United States.
Assuming such a withdrawal to be i'm
possible and that the United States will
insist upon the surrender of Spanish sover-
eighty, the natural question will be wheth-
er the people are capable of the self-govern-
ment to which they aspire. That they
are so capable, Senor Agoncillo asserts his
belief and says that, If by any possibility,
1t turns out that he Is mistaken the peo-
pie will be willing to be guided by the
United States to any other just solution
of the problem of government which will
arise upon the extinguishment of the
power of Spain.
II hope that the American Peace Commits
sioners at Paris will find it possible to
accomplish the one great object stated,
namely, the abandonment Of the islands by
Spain. If that can be done, I feel certain
there will be no serious difficulties encoun-
tered in deciding further questions that may
Immediately arise as to the control, govern
ment and disposition of the islands, judg-
ing from the insight which have been
able to obtain from Senior Agoncillo into
the desires and purposes of President Az
u.naldo and his associates"
