INTERESTED IN THE CANAL.
President of Costa Rica on Visit to This
Country.

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-President Ra-
fael Iglesias of Costa Rica is passen-
ger on the Atlas line steamship Altai,
which passed in at Sandy Hook at 3:4O
a. III. He comes here in search OF
health-at least that is the supposed
object of his visit. 1t is reported, how
ever, that he may discuss the claims of
Costa Rica in the interoceanic canal
during his visit to President Mckinley.
1t is known that Costa Rica very much
desires the completion of this canal.
With President Iglesias were Ricardo
Iglesias, his brother; Colonel Leonzo
Bonilla, aide de camp, DR.. Antonio
Guestiani and General John S. Case
ment of the Costa Rican railway. The
party will stop at the Waldorf for few
days before proceeding to Washington.
Shortly after the Altai left quarantine
for her dock, she was boarded by Col
onel William Carter of the war depart
ment, representing President Mckinley,
to welcome President Iglesias.

ATTACK ON THE BENCH.
Sensational speech i'm the Burke Disbar-

ment Case at Cleveland.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 24.-In the disbar-
ment proceedings against State Senator
Burke, Judge Blandin, one of the prose
cutors, surprised his hearers by making
a bitter and sensational attack on the
whole bench of Cuyahoga county. He
said he knew the risk he was taking,
but that he did not care. Judge Blan-
din declared it was the bench which
needed reforming first the elimination
of rottenness should commence with the
bench, he said. He went into details
and did not hesitate to say he was talk
ing about Judge Walter G.. Ong and
Judge T. X. Dissette. He said it was
a comparatively insignificant thing
whether Dellenbaugh was impeached
and driven from the bench or whether
Vernon Burke was disbarred. 1t is
more important, he declared, to cleanse
the bench of the county so that prop
erty, liberty and life may be safe in the
hands of the court.

broke. She had a cargo of flour and
copper bound for Buffalo. The Orr is
owned by c. w. Elphicko of Chicago

tion leaves at once to rescue her if pos
sible.

MERRITT RETURNED
He Denies There Is Any Foundation
for Story That Admiral Dewey
is Broken Down.
PHILIPPINECLIMATENOTBAD
Also Mortality Among United States
Troops Not As Great As Has Been
Reported-The Generals Bride
with Him. ...

New York, Dec. 17.-Major General
Merritt late commander of the United
States military forces in the Philippine
islands, iIom which post he was called
to Paris to consult with the American
peace commissioners, reached this city
today on the steamer Lucania. With
General Merritt were his bride and her
mother, Mrs. Norman Williams. The
general will resume command of the
military department of the east. He
said There is no foundation for the
report that Admiral Dewey's health has
broken down as the result of his Won
derful work in Manila harbor. He was
in fine physical condition when | left
him, and he was then over the strain OF
the naval fight. Another thing I would
like people to know is that the climate
of the Philippines is not by any means
as bad as it is said to be. The mortality
among our troops sent to preserve order
there will not be as great as some
would have people believe
The general said. further: II think
it will take about 10000 soldiers to hold
the islands in case this country desires
to keep them, and L see no reason why
it should not. With $4,000 United States
soldiers in Manila and the remaining
$1,000 evenly divided between the Fill
pinos and Spanish, I feel sure the ISL
ands could be governed properly and
with credit to this country. I did not
meet Aguinaldo, but l am satisfied ne
is a very shrewd man. l did not recog-
nize Aguinaldo nor his troops, nor use
them in any way"

CONGRESSIONAL
Southern Arizona Railway Granted
Right-of-W Way Through San Fran
cisco Forest Reserve.
INDIAN EDUCATION FAVORED
Over S2,500,000 Appropriated for That
Purpose Much Vexing Question ofSec-
tarianism in Indian Schools Will
Vex No More.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE house pass
ed a bill granting a right of way through
the San Francisco forest reserve to the
Southern railroad of Arizona
Mr.. Payne, Republican, of New York,
called up the bill extending the laws of
the United States relative to commerce,
navigation and merchant seamen to the
Hawaiian islands. Mr.. McRoe sought to
have the bill amended 50 as also to eX-
tend to Hawaii the provisions of the act
prohibiting importation of contract la
Dor. Mr.. Payne moved the previous
question, and this motion was lost. Mr..
McRae then introduced his amendment.
He asserted that the law concerning
contract labor was just as important to
the islanders as to any other part of the
country.
Mr.. Payne made point that the
amendment was not germane and was
sustained by the chair. Mr.. McRae ap-
pealed from the decision, and Mr.. Payne
moved to lay the appeal on the table.
This action prevailed by vote of 65 to
nays when Mr.. Payne, rather than pro-
long the controversy, Withdrew his bill.
The house went into committee of the
whole on the Indian appropriation bill.
Mr.. Sherman. Republican, of New
York, in explaining the provisions of the
bill. said that while the appropriation
was in excess of the estimates, no items
We're appropriated not approved by the
executive authorities. He said the
principal increase was for Indian
schools more than $2,500OO0 going for
that purpose, and this amount did not
include any contract schools, and the
question of sectarianism was COM
pletely eliminated. Nor did the figures
include the New York and Indian ter
ritory Indians, whose education is paid
for out of their own funds. Mr.. Lett,
Democrat, of Arkansas, spoke in COM
mendation of the bill, saying it had
practically no new legislation in it. He
felicitated congress especially upon the
fact that the question of sectarianlsm
had been entirely eliminated from the
appropriation bills. He also gave no.
tice of an amendment providing money
for educating the white children of the
Indian territory. The children there
were entirely without means of school
ing and the country must either educate
those children or allow them to grow up
in ignorance or as outlaws.

ALBERT CLIFFORD IN TOWN.
He Is in Sheriff Kinsell's Custody-Entire
Trouble Due to Drunken Peniten-
tes-Ouiet Restored,

Deputy United States Marshal Sheri-
dan returned from Taos last night,
bringing with him Albert Clifford, whom
the friends of Sheriff Trujillo, of Taos
county, accuse of shooting the officer
Mr.. Sheridan's story of the troubles
in Taos clears up many matters which
could not be understood in Santa Fe,
and removes suspicion of a race war.
The story first sent out that the shoot
ing resulted from the arrest of the two
tourists representing Scribners Maga-
zine for not removing their hats while a
church procession was passing, is not a
fair statement. The procession was not
one held by the church, but one by the
penitentes, and the facts are that the
strangers did take their hats off while
the procession was passing, but because
they saw fit to leave the street and re-
place their headgear before the rag-tag
and bob-tail of the penitentes We're out
of sight, they We're assaulted, insulted
and thrown into Jail by drunken sher-
iff and his intoxicated deputies, all of
whom are members of the penitente Or
ganization. Clifford, the young man now
in Santa F'e, had nothing to do with the
matter on the start. After the sheriff
had thrown the strangers in jail he
started out to kill some one on general
principles, and Clifford was the first
man he met. Clifford got away from him,
but in endeavoring to get to his board
ing house met Trujllo again, and the
latter opened fire on him. After the
second shot, fired by Trujillo, about 20
reports We're heard from the crowd that
had gathered, and the sheriff fell NOR
tally wounded. Thirteen balls were
dug out of the adobe wall that had been
fired by the sheriff and others. The re-
ports that the matter had resolved it
self into a war between the Americans
and native people are unfounded. The
real state of affairs is that it was con-
f1ct between whisky infuriated peniten-
tes and the rest of the people in Taos,
To Hon Malquides Martinez much
praise is due for preventing a serious
riot. In company with friends he pre-
vented a clash between the friends of
the sheriff and the other residents of the
town.
Clifford is now in the custody of the
sheriff of Santa Fe county.
