sition to state that there was no truth
in the publication at London, cabled
to this country, that the ambassadors
have made joint representations to Sec

of the Philippines. Judge Day treated
the report as purely fanciful, and dis
missed it by remarking that nothing
whatever of that kind had occurred.
There is no doubt that Germany,
France and Great Britain are sending
their warships to the Philippines, but
this is said to be a natural movement

TRANSPORT VESSELS.
Two More Steamers Added to the
Pacific Coast Fleet.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 12.-The
steamers Conemaugh and Ohio have
been added to the Government fleet of
transports which is to carry the first
expedition to Manila. There is now
some talk of the Government sending
1000 or 10000 men to the islands, in
which case the second expedition will be
carried on on very large scale. About
1000 troops from the various parts of
the country West of the Mississippi are
already headed this way. They will
not all be in camp before the latter part
of next week.
There is no definite time set for the
departure Of the Peking, Australia and
Sydney, but it begins to look as if they
would be detained beyond next Sunday.
The steamer City of Peking was re-
moved from the dry dock this afternoon
and taken to her dock. Admiral Miller
has issued orders to have her coaled to-
night, and at the navy pay Office the
information was given out that she
would take on her stores at the dock
instead of going to Mare Island, as
originally intended. Unless something
unforeseen happens, the vessel will be
ready for sea by Tuesday next
The work of Transforming the steamer
Conemaugh and the Ohio into troop
ships will be rushed as soon as definite
plans have been decided upon. Their
construction makes the task a COM

GERMANY'S ATTITUDE.
BERLIN, May 12.-The semi official

The North German Gazette" adds:
Let this also be a hint to the Eng

WASHINGTON, May 12.-It was

State Department that there is no
truth whatever in the London newspa-

ropean ambassadors had made friend
ly representations to the United States
against an extension of the war in the

The Toddy-tree.

Nature has her rum-shops, her sa-
looms. She produces plants which de-
vote themselves to the manufacture
and sale of intoxicants. The South
American toddy tree is Well known to
naturalists. 1t is we'll known also to
the South American beetle, the Oryctes
Hercules. When the latter goes on a
spree, he never goes alone, after the
unneighborly habit of the human
drunkard He collects his friends and
acquaintance to the number of thirty
or forty; the whole crowd run their
short horns through the bark of the
toddy tree, revel in the outf1owing
juices, and while inebriated, are easi-
ly caught by the human natives.
The toddy tree parts with its liquor
free of charge There are other plants
which are less generous. They exact
no less a penalty than the death of the
unfortunate drunkard. And what do
they do with the body? Strange as 1T
may seem, they eat it. In this manner
they obtain the food which nourishes
them and sustains their healthful ex-
istence. At the end of their long
green leaves these plants have a
pitcher-shaped receptacle. We might
style this the growler; but it never
needs to be rushed. 1t is always full

cars of coal daily until further orders.
The coal is shipped to Tampa and put
aboard the war vessels there.
Recruits continue to come in rapidly.
They are assigned to the various regl-

Colonel Lee, Quartermaster on Gener-

another torpedo boat was seen in the
line of the sun, which dazzled the
water too much to make out her coll

class of the torpedo catchers, and
very large boat with a large funnel.
Guns were mounted on the bow. She
appeared to be one of the recent Eng
