MET WHOM HH EXPECTED NOT.
Exciting Experience on GambIe's
Hill, Followed by Chase.

Considerable excitement was occasion
ed on CANDLES Hill and in that vicinity
yesterday shortly before noon, by what
threatened for a time 20 be a shooting
case, and which eventuated in foot-race,
in which a policeman and the young man
who had threatened to do the shooting
figured as principals.
The affair had its origin I'm an alleged
affront offered young lady on Broad
street several days ago, and eliminated
i'm an appointment on CANDLES HILL The
young man who is alleged to have Offend
ed the lady was lured TO Gam
ble's Hill by a note purporting
to be from the lady, inviting him
10 meet her at that spot He came and
was confronted by two young gentlemen
armed with a pistol and a stick, who
threatened his life.
ORDERED FROM THE PARK.
While the trio were discussing the mat
ter Park Keeper Walsh appeared on the
scene and took hand I'm the proceedings.
lie ordered the belligerents from the park
under pain Of arrest. and they left, the
armed ones swearing vengeance against
the alleged oHender, ana the ldtler de-
flying them and their pistol.
At Fifth and Canal streets the trouble
was renewed and the pistol was drawn
and presented TO the body Of the would
be victim. Bystanders who had Witnessed
a portion of the affair at once raised the
alarm, and Policeman Craft. of the First
District, who resides nearby, made his
advent.
DISARMED, But NOT CAUGHT.
Rushing up TO the young man who had
the pistol. he quickly disarmed him, and
ordered him under arrest but the gentle
man was not inclined TO obey the order.
so he took leg bail, and then there was
a lively chase, in which the crowd which
had gathered participated. The fugitive
made his way TO the Chesapeake and Ohio
tracks, and thence back to CANDLES Hill.
Being houy pursued, however. he turned
back and entered the Tredegar yards,
where he was lost.
The matter was reported to the police
of the Second District. and thev began
work on II. but up to a late hour last
night they had no trace Of the fugitive.
and # is hardly likely that any arrests
will be made.

NEW MILITIA PLAN.
REORGANIZATION of National Guard
Under Federal LAW.

CLEVELAND, O., August 3O-Major
Webb Hayes, son Of the late President
Hayes, who is said to be the only vol
unteer officer who served in both the
Cuban and the Porto Rican campaign.
and who is accompanying President Nc
Kinley on his present trip, has proposed
n plan to the Chief Executive, looking
to the reorganization OF the National
Guard under military law.
The plan provides that the President
shall appoint an acknowledgement for
each State; that as many bodies Of mill
tia shall be raised in each State as cir
cumstances require and that all officers
Of such militia shall be nominated by
the Governors Of the various States.
They would then be under the direct
control of the National Government. and
much OF the difficulty experienced when
the Guard was called into service for
the Spanish war would be obviated.
"a CASE OF COOKS"
Major Hayes when asked what he
thought Of the charges Of starvation from
the regiments at the front. said:
Look al me: DO | look starved? I lived
on the same ratiOns as the soldiers, and
have grown heshy on that fare"
HAYES was attired in the brown can
vas uniform Of a field officer. and is rug
eed as a veteran. II may De- wrong.
but i'm my opinion the greatest cause for
complaint Is summed up In cooks. The
government purchased bOunufully Of all
needed supplies That there was some
miemanagement II is impossible % deny,
but investigation Will show II a case OF
cooks and mismanagement that crippled
the army"

drld, published here this afternoon, has
outlined his future policy. lie proposes.
It appears, to be independent both of tho
government and OF the opposition. "al-
ways aiming to preserve the country and
to reorglnize the army"
He expressed the belief that the Carlists
have plenty Of money. some OF which
he alleges comes from France. He say.
the United Republicans have no personal
animus against the queen. their only
object being TO adopt a firm international
stand. one result of which would DO 20
check I'm some measure Euglands ambl-
tion.
General Weylers statement was made
TO a committee OF the Weyler Club,
which called upon him this morning at
Palma. Majorca, where he is staying.
This evening he expects to speak before
a club convention.
RESPONSE TO MANY APPEALS.
1t is represented that the General is
returning to politics I'm response 20 many
appeals from Spain and from abroad,
and it Is added that he will attend tho
sessions Of the Cortes and expound his
views as to the causes Of the war dis
asters.
The substance Of General Weyler's de-
claratlon 10 the delegation from the Wey-
Ter club IL as follows:
The General intends TO advocate
sweeping policy OF rehabilitation OF the
government. lie Will refuse to aid in any
temporary measures, ana will propose a
military dictatorship for the reorganza-
tion of the army and navy.
Their honor, ne remarked has been
lost. as well as the Antilles, owing solely
10 military deficiencies.
MILITARY DICTATORSHIP.
General Weylcr expressed the belief that
the present Cabinet will be succeeded by
q military dictatorship o. by suvela
ministry. He added that no dld not de-
sire a change In the form Of govern
ment but he pointed out that the Car
lists have am excellent organization.
Continuing, the former Captain-Generai
Of Cuba urged that Spain should abandon
her attitude Of international neutrality.
in order 10 be prepared to oppose Great
Britain. when the latter. desiring TO en-
large her sphere OF action AZ Gibraltar.
demands other adjacent Spanish posses
sons.
The General deemed II better 10 lose
the Philippine Islands, the importance
Of which he did not appreciate more fully
than territory around Gibraltar.
In conclusion, General Weyler deplored
the loss 'of the Antilles for the sake or
the Sp3niards who resided In the islands
and on account Of the national commerce.

BACK FROM ALASKA,
Gold Dust Worth a Million and
a Half Dollars,
MEN WHO WENT IN LAST YEARS RUSH
Most Of Them Are Without Any Gold,
But With Lots Of Experience.
AN UNUSUAL INCIDENT ABOARD


SEATTLE WASH, August 3).-The
steamer Roanoke arrived here to-day,
from st. Michael's, Alaska. with S55 pas
sengers, and gold dust which conserva-
tive estimate places at $4,000. The bulk
Of il was the property of the Cana
dian Bank OF Commerce and the North
American Trading and Transportation
Company. The amount consigned to the
Canadian Bank of Commerce is $500, 900.
A majority Of the passengers were men
who went to Dawson in last years rush.
They have no gold. but lots of experience.
The fortunate passengers number about
seventy-fve OF these, probably twenty
five had over $4,000 each. The amounts
held by the remaining fifty range from
500 TO 5000.
The following is a list Of the richest
ones, and the amounts they brought
back: NJ. W. jenkins, $4,000; Theodore
Anderson, $50 600: George Carmack, 5000;
Stick jim, $35 900; Tagish Charley, $3j 900;
Ike Powers, $1,000; H. Doare, $1,000; f.
Renaud. $1,000 These were among the
first who went to the Klondike. George
Carmack was the discoverer of the Klon-
dixie. He located the first claim on
Bonanza creek. Stick Jim and Tagish
Charley are full-blooded Indians.
SEARCH FOR STOLEN GOLD.
An unusual incident attending the ar
rival of the Roanoke was the holding and
searching of her passengers and the bag
gage for three sacks of stolen gold dust.
Each individual passenger was examined
as he came off the steamer. but the miss
ing gold was not found. The bags contain
ed about $4,000. The owners Of the stolen
gold were Albert Fox, whose sack contain
ed $4,000; William Folmer, 5000, and DR..
c. +. Adams, Of Chicago. 5000. The gold
was taken from a stateroom on the Roa-
noke while the vessel was lying at St.
Michael's There is no clue to the thief.
The conditions at Dawson and st.
Michael have undergone no material
change since last reports. People are ar
riving daily at ST. Nlichael's from up the
river in small boats. The Roanoke brings
news of the loss of the whaler Roserio
last July, while endeavoring to get out OF
the ice.

THE PEACE COMMISSION.
Spanish Think Our Representatives
VIII Probably BE Harsh.

MADRID. August 3O Q p. M.-The Cabi-
net Council did not meet to-day. and the
names of the Spanish peace commission
ers are not yet officially known.
Senor Sagasta consulted with several
politicians on the subject, and tonight
prepared instructions for the commission
The opinion regarding the American

have a tendency to treat Spanish interests
harshly, but are, nevertheless. likely TO
carry out President McKinley's ideas.
