CABINET WORK
Discussion Of the Naval Review and
MASTERING Out

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-The Cabinet
session today was brief The disarmament
of the army and the naval review at New
York were the main points of discussion.
AS to the former, Secretary Alger stated
the details were being worked out and
considerable difficulty was being expert
enced In selecting regiments to put on the
mustering-ou. list, but he expected the
matter would be in shape after the issu-
ance, In few days, of the necessary orders.
Contrary to expectation the selection of
the personnel of the Peace Commission
to meet in Paris was not taken up. 1t had
been expected there would be discussion
of the names proposed for the commission
before the matter would be formally
preached. Acting Secretary of State
Moore had been over just before the meet
ing to confer with the President on State
Department matters, though none of them
1t was said, were of general significance.
There were no important state matters dis
cussed by the Cabinet.
Acting Secretary of the Navy Allen at
tended the meeting. He explained the
plans of the naval review and it was de-
cided that Secretary Alger Secretary Bliss,
Secretary Gage, Acknowledgement Griggs
and Postmaster-General Smith would rep
resent the administration at the review.
Secretary Alger, who possibly may be

New York tonight. The others named will

BERLIN, Aug. 19.-Herr Eugene s.
Wolff, the we'll known German explorer,
who has just returned from China, where
he acted as the correspondent of the Tage-
blatt, is being prosecuted upon a charge
of having without authority assumed the
role of judge and with having liberated

Herr Wolff, having heard of the trial, APP
peared in court with dog named Schuster.
Four vacant chairs stood In the hall in
which the trial was to be held. Wolff
seated himself in the most imposing of
these, saying: "rll take the highest and
you, Herr Schuster addressing the dog
will take the second highest to my right"
Then he ordered the clerk of the court
into the next chair on his right and lastly,
with a gesture, babe the wondering man.

papers from his pocket and fiourished 1t

introduced and declaring their innocence
Herr Wolff solemnly acquitted them and
declared the proceedings ended.
He then saddled his horse and departed
The story caused the utmost astonish-
ment Bishop Amer was in Germany at
the time of the alleged occurrence, con-
sulting the government in regard to the
murders, which ultimately led to the occu-
patton of Kiao Chou, and only learned of
what had happened on returning to China.
It appears that Herr Wolff often posed
in China as German envoy.

The Subject of Investigation by the
Official Board

board of inquiry, consisting Of Major j.

Sixth California Volunteers; First Lieuten-
ant ]. A. Lockwood, Fourth United States
cavalry, convened on board the Scandal
his morning to investigate the cause oil
the accident which resulted In the loss Of
the life of Mrs. Charles e. Paxton wher
the Scandals launch collded with the
General Mcdowell. A number Of wit
nesses were summoned, but the board has
not finished the investigation.
Men are still hunting for the body OF
Mrs. Charles Paxton. There Is an opinion
expressed that perhaps the unfortunate
woman was under the launch when 1t up
turned. and that she sank under the boat
and is buried in the loose mud. 1t has
been sugges ed that the authorities explode
small dynamite sticks in the vicinity. The
conclusion might raise the corpse.
All testimony was taken behind closed
doors and witnesses warned not to make
public any statements made 10 the pre-.
siding officers, who will make report to
General Merriam in few days.

CLARK's CONDITION
The oregon's Captain Is NotSeriously
Sick


ST. JOSEPH, Mich. Aug. 19.-Captain
Charles e. Clark, commander of the bat
tleship Oregon, and one of the heroes Of
the naval battle Of Santiago, is coming to
st. Joseph to meet his wife and daughters
and seek rest and regeneration. He will
be the guest Of his brother, Lloyd Clark
custodian Of the United States lighthouse
station at this port.
Mrs. Clark and her daughters arrived
from California a month ago, and have
been anxiously waiting the close OF the
war and the Captains return. He Is ex-
pected here within few days, having ar
rived at New York on the Steamer St.
Paul. Immediately on his arrival, he tele-
graphed his brother that he was in good
condition. and that as soon as he could get
through the quarantine restrictions he
would start for st. Joseph.
Mr.. Lloyd Clark says:
1.-The Captains illness is not at all serious
as might be supposed on account of the
Medical Board of Surveys report. He was
worn out by his long cruise from San Fran
cisco, his arduous duties and the supreme
excitement of the battle. The strain caused
a recurrence Of an intestinal trouble which
he contracted while engaged In survey
along the South American coast some
years ago, and the doctors recomm ended,
as timely and wise, that he be released from
duty for period which would enable him
to recover completely. He was given six
months leave Of absence"
Mrs. Clark's daughters. who are with her.
counting the hours until he arrives, are
the wives Of Naval Lieutenants Robinson
and Hughes, at present on duty with Ad-
mira1 Dewey's feet at Manila.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-The following
from President Mckinley was received by
Mayor Van Wyck today:
"Hon. Robert Van Wyck, Mayor, New
York City: The cordial invitation which
you have extended on behalf of the citi-
zens and officials of New York for the cell
ebration of the 10th is deeply appreciated,

will preclude an absence from Washington
at that time. 1t would be great pleasure
to unite with the people in giving a home
welcome to the officers and men of the
fleet who return with such signal honor for
themselves and their country after a me-
morable campaign Of blockade and battle,
but some future day I hope to make a

IRELAND INTERESTED
In Affairs Of the Church in Porto
Rico,


WASHINGTON, Aug. 1s.--The members
of the Cabinet, except Secretaries Day and
Long. who are out of the city, were prompt
in reaching the White House today for the
regular session. Up to the time, they met
at II o'clock there was very little to dis
turb the quiet routine there. Archbishop
Ireland was one Of the Cabinet visitors.
He arrived about 10 o'clock and had con-
ference with President Mckinley. He pre-
served his usual reticence as to his mis-
sion. 1t is understood that the archbishop
is empowered to make representa- tons to
the administration looking to the protec-
ton of the interests Of the church OF Rome
in our new territorial accessions, particu-
larry in Porto Rico. Though he did not
affirm this when questioned, 1t was sig
nificant that he attempted no denial Of It,
Senator Cannon of Utah also saw the
President today and had talk regarding
the military plans. The President told
him of his purpose to disband portion OF
the volunteer army and that he expected
the troops to be mustered out would be de-
termined on the basis largely OF the in
clinations OF the organizations and the con-
dition Of their equipments. Senator Cannon
has been comforting with the War Depart
mert on this matter in view Of bringing to-
gether the two batteries of Utah troops,
one now at Manila and the one left at San
Francisco. The latter will be dispatched
to Join the others If there Is an opportunity.
The President was told that the only col
ony Of native Hawaiians in the county was
located in Utah, and that proportionately
there were more people in Utah who were
familiar with Hawaii than in any other
state, the fact which was pressed as a
basis for recognizing the State when Ha-

ON GUARD DUTY
Single Turreted Monitors Stationed Oh
Cuban Coasts

NEW YORK, Aug. ia special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The Navy Department has decided to
send all the single-turreted monitors to
Cuba and Porto Rico for duty as perman-
emit guardships in the chief harbors Of
those islands. Preliminary orders assign
ing officers and crews from the regular
navy to the twelve seaworthy vessels Of
this type are being made out and several
OF these formidable vessels will start for
their new posts in week or two. These
monitors, which were built for service in
the Civil War, several Of them bearing
scars Of conflict, after thirty years Of dis
use, were restored to excellent condition
soon after the Maine was blown up, some
of them being equipped with entirely new
water tube boilers and having the benefit
of extensive improvements. During the
war with Spain, they have been manned
by naval militiamen and constituted the
chief source of strength of the auxiliary
naval force guarding the Atlantic Coast.
Orders were given several days ago to
place them out Of commission as soon as
possible and return them to the League
Island, Pennsylvania. navy yard. until an
other urgency necessitated their use. In
the meantime, however, the complicated
problems involved in maintaining law and
ORDER particularly in Cuba, led to con-
sideration of the availability of these YES
sells as guardships and the authorities
quickly reached the decision to utilize them
for that purpose. The vessels are the
Ajax, the Canonicus, the Mahopac, the
Manhattan, the Wyandotte, the Catskill,
the Jason, the Lehigh. the Montauk, the
Nahant, the Nantucket and the Passaic
They draw only twelve feet of water and
each of them carries two 15-tnch smooth
bore guns In its turret.
It is proposed to locate these single-tur-
reted monitors at Matanzas, Cardenas,
Sagua La Grande Gibara, Nuevitas, Man.
zanillo, Guantanamo, Trinidad, Cienfuegos
and Bahia Honda. Cuba. and Ponce, Porto
Rico.
1t is also the intention Of the Navy De-
partment to send the double turreted
monitors Puritan. Terror, Amphitrite and
Miantonomoh to Havana, Santiago and
San Juan de Porto Rico. perhaps two of
them being stationed at Havana.
