ROOT RECOMMENDS
THE ENLISTMENT OF
FIVE NEW REGIMENTS
Secretary Believes a Display Of
Troops Will Bring Insur=
gents Into SubiectiOn.

Such splendid progress has been
made in recruiting the ten regiments
organized in this country that depart
ment officials have no fear that any
difficulty would be experienced in re-
Cruiting the additional regiments con-
templated. The same methods Of re-
cruiting would be followed and Secre-
tary Root considered this after
noon a list of officers to be
placed in command of the con-
templated regiments. These ofh-
GERS, if it is decided to organize the reg
iments, will be sent to take the places
of officers of volunteer regiments who
have been engaged in recruiting duty
for the month past.
The ten volunteer regiments were
only 523 short this morning and reports
to be received on Monday are expected
to show that all the men required for
these regiments have been obtained. A
few days recruiting will be sufficient,
it is believed, to fill the skeleton regt-
ments organized by General Otis at Ma
nila and then recruiting will be con-
tinued for the proposed regiments. An
average of more than 500 recruits per
day have been enlisted, SO that in two
weeks time the 6545 men needed for the
five additional regiments can be OBJ
tanned In connection with the enlist
ment of additional volunteers, Sere-
tary Root has carefully considered the
question of transportation
1t is his expectation that the entire
force of $4,000 men heretofore fixed as
the number to be placed at General
Otis disposal will have reached Manila
by November l. The vessels carrying
this force will return to San Francisco
for additional troops, the Secretary s
idea being that they will return to San
Francisco as quickly as possible and
take on board additional troops until
the entire number intended to be at
tached to General Otis command has
been assembled in the Philippines.
General Luddington seems to be conf
dent that no trouble will be expert
enced in getting five additional regi-
ments over to Manila in time for the
coming campaign, and a table prepared
in his office and submitted to the Sec
retary shows the approximate dates Of
arrival and departure of transports
from San Francisco, after they have
discharged at Manila, the regular regi-
ments and the ten volunteer regiments
already organized.

ARMS SENT YAQUIS
FROM CONNECTICUT

SAN ANTONIO, Aug. 12.-Late news
from the scene of the Yaqui rebellion in
Mexico was brought here to-day by
Haden Sanderson, proprietor of the So
nora Gold Company, who is here on his
way to his home in Alabama Mr.. San
derson says the Mexican Government 8
first intirnation that the Yaquis were
planning a rebellion came through the
seizure of a lot of arms that had been
shipped from some factory in Massachus-
etts, billed as miners outfit and supplies.

ENTICES YOUNG GIRLS
INTO HER RESORT
Notorious Ruby Raymond Arrested at
San Jose on a Warrant From
San Francisco.


SAN JOSE, Aug. 12.-Ruby Raymond,
keeper of a resort at 10 Orchard street.
was arrested this evening on a warrant
issued in Judge Mogan's court in San
Francisco on a charge of enticing young
girls from their homes. The complain
ant is Mrs. Anna L. Danforth of San
Francisco, who accuses the woman of
having enticed her daughter Cora
Methela, Is years old, to her resort.
The Raymond woman was arrested by
officers Haley and Monroe and lodged
in the City Prison. Bail is fixed at
$4,000 cash or $4,000 security.
A few days ago the police rescued
Cora Methela, the complainant's daugh-
ter, who passed as Virgie Myers, and
Daisy Miller of Oakland, aged II, from
the place conducted by Ruby Raymond
and returned them to their homes. The
house has been the most notorious in
the city and hardly a week passes but
that the police are requested to search
it for missing girls from San Francisco.
Ruby Raymond probably will be taken
to San Francisco tomorrow to answer
to the charge.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, VEL
LlNGTON HOTEL, WASHINGTON.
Aug. 12.-Secretary Root has again
demonstrated his purpose to vigorously
assist General Otis to suppress the in
surrection in the Philippines by seri-
ously considering the enlistment of not
less than five additional volunteer regi-
ments
The exact number to be called for is
one of the matters under considera-
ton, and if the recommendation of Cen
eral Miles is adopted the entire volun-
teer force authorized by Congress will
be organized and dispatched to Manila,
so as to bring an end to the rebellion
before the end of the coming dry sea-
son. At a conference with Secretary
Root yesterday General Miles urged
that no time be lost in enlisting all Of
the $4,000 volunteers authorized. OF this
number 1l,417, including q battalion of
natives in Porto Rico, will be contained
IN the regiments now being organized
leaving 1853 who can be recruited and
sent to reinforce General Otis. From
General Miles point of view the moral
effect of the organization Of the entire
volunteer force Will be beneficial as it
Will prove to the insurgent leaders and
their men the undoubted purpose of the
United States to bring about their
prompt subjection.
Secretary Root has already shown
that he is in hearty sympathy with the
desire of the President to bring the in
surrection 20 an end with all possible
dispatch. and while General Otis has
not asked for any more men than the
300 it has been intended to send him,
the Secretary believes it will be to the
interest of this Government to have as
large q force as possible in Manila, in
nyT1nT No o TaT~ lTGT
the American troops may be properly
garrisoned and the rebels thus prevent
ed from TeocCupying It.
The great defect of the American
campaign of last spring was due to a
lack of troops to remain in possession
Of the territory from which the insur-
gents had been driven. With the force
which 1t is intended to give him the
Secretary is confident that General Otis
will be able TO drive the insurgents
back and TO station enough troops in
the territory conquered to hold it and to
maintain peace and order.

AN QUENTIN PRISON, Aug. 12.-
Warden Aguirre has obtained in
formation leading to the downfall
of the opium ring" whose opera
tfons have led to the death of
many an unfortunate and brought
physical ruin to ten times as
rnany others. Aguirres detective work
will result in the discharge of several
officials and guards at the prison.
The only free man suspected of COM
plicity in the opium smuggling, whose
name can be ascertained, is G. Pretzel,
a. subordinate officer having charge of
what is known as the "hoodoo," or
waterfront gang Of convicts. Pretzel
is a brother-in-Iaw Of Attorney James
w. Cochrane of San Rafael. He has
hitherto enjoyed an unblemished repu-
tation and there are few VINO VIII be
lieye that he is guilty of the offense
charged against him unless the eVl-
dence proves to be Of positive nature.
The three convict ringleaders in the
smuggling Operations-F. l.. Barney,
lanes Marshall and c. w. t1lklns-are
now confined in the dungeon, with SIX
or seven of what are known as mer-
chants" and "peddlers" OF the drug.

fit to bring the facts before the Prison
Directors. ,.
About a month ago Aguirre learned
that Barney, who is serving seven
wear term from Stanislaus County, was
Smuggling the "hasheesh" through the
gates A watch was kept, which led
to his being arrested in the jute mill,
together with Marshall, who is serving
five years for burglary from San Fran
cisco, and Filkins undergoing the same
term of Imprisonment from Los Ange-
les for a similar offense. F1lk1ns is

WHEAT BLOCKADE.
Flood of Grain Pouring Into Stockton
Warehouses.

E1ood Oh Gra1n HouT1ng Into Stockton
Warehouses.
STOCKTON, Aug. 12-This was an
other wheat blockade day on the front.
Wagon loads Of grain went in a con-
tinuous stream all the forenoon to the
warehouses, and before the warehouse
men had disposed of the team grain
wheat began to arrive by rail in train
load lots. Every warehouse on the
front was looking for truckers, and sew
eral of the deckhands on the steamers
left their jobs to go trucking in the
warehouses, where they were paid bet
ter wages. Consequently the mates of
the steamers were out looking for
stevedores. The Dauntless was in need
of six men and the other steamers were
short-handed from two to ten men
each.
The market was slightly better than
it had been for weeks. 1t assumed
stronger attitude this afternoon and
considerable milling wheat changed
hands at / 0212.
Captain Smith seems to be about the
only one doing any business in barley.
He purchased 5000 bags of brewing
goods yesterday and 5000 to-day. All
Of his grain he ships to Port Costa for
storage.

a leak had sprung in that great etnbank-
meut which saves Holland from the devas-
tations of the hungry sea. 1t was early IN
the night, and no one was near at hand.
The leak was small when he found 1t, but
he knew that the action of the water would
enlarge II long before morning, and wash
away the entire er1bankment, inundate the
country and destroy his own and thou
sands of homes. So he bravely put his
finger In the crevasse, and kept it there all
the long night through until help came and
the opening was properly stopped. He had
saved his country.
Equally insignificant is the entrance of
disease into the human system. The be-
ginnings of the most terrible ailments are
so small they can be easily stopped at the
start. Your health is a dixie which keeps
out and stops the inroads Of dangerous and
devastating disease. Whenever it breaks
down, no matter how slightly, there is an
opening for disease to enter If the open
ing is not watched, il will grow larger,
until the sweep of disease overwhelms
you, and health and perhaps life is de-
stToyed forever.
Fortify your health with DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, and you can
defy ill-health. You can make your health
so strong a bulwark that disease cannot
find a cTevice through which it can creep
Taken in time, DR.. Pierce's remedies pre-
vent greater and more serious troubles
Hundreds write daily to DR. Pierce. telling
him how these remedies have saved them
and made them strong.
Constipation causes and aggravates r,anv
serious diseases. 1t is speedily cured by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

NO UPRISING IN THE
UPPER YAQUI VALLEY

NOGALES, Ariz., Aug. 12.-George Look,
right of way agent of the Rio Grande,
Sierra Madre and Pacific Railroad, passed
through here to-day en- route north. He
said reports from Texas to the effect that
the Yauui Indians are driving miners from
Guaynopa, Guaynopita, Cuuichupa and
other mining camps in the upper Yaqui
Valley are untrue. No Yaquis are en-
ployed in that region, and the scene Of the
trouble is $50 miles southwest of there. He
says no disturbances of any kind have oc-
Cured and mining and agricultural opera
tions are not affected.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE black mar
riage"-that is, the union between
Prince Lobengula, who was performing
at Earlscourt, and a young Jewish
heiress, Miss Jewell has really come
off. Some pronounce it disgusting,
others "a downright scandal"
Nobody believed the story of the be-
trothal. They considered the idea of
the black prince getting a white wife
simply joke and an outcome of the
notoriety which the Matabele has
gained as a lady-killer because the
manner in which he had been taken
about by ladies occupying good places
In society had become quite scandal
There was no hiding that.
