Negro Private Seriously Shot for
Stealing "a Diamond Ring.
Santiago, Jan. 15.-El Porvenie publishes
an extra to-day, giving a cable message
from DIR. Joaquin d. Castillo, now in
Washington with Gen. Wood in the inter-
est of the Santiago Board of Trade. Dr.
Castillo says that complete autonomy will
be granted to the province. The whole
city is talking tonight of a demonstration
to celebrate the prospect.
A negro private of the Twenty-third
Kansas Regiment broke into a store oppo-
site the police headquarters and stole a
diamond ring. The police were called and
the man was shot, though not seriously
injured. The local press is making the
most of this situation contending that it
is only another incident in the bad history
of the negro regiment The sentiment of
the Americans. however, is that It would
be unjust to blame the race for the act
of one man.
Charges of a very serious character
have been brought against an officer of
the Third Immune Regiment in the Guam
tanamo district More than $1,000 is in
volved. The officer is under arrest.

In the course of a reference to the denial
given last Friday by Baron Won Bulow,
German minister of foreign affairs.
through the Berlin correspondent of the
Associated Press, TO the reports that Ger
many had been intriguing in the Philip
pines against the Americans. the Times
says editorialy:
1T is to be regretted that the rresponsl-
bic enthusiasm of some Washington poll
ticians should have led to the use of lam
guage unnecessarily offensive to Germany.
II may well be believed that Aguinaldo
and the insurgents would have been in
cllued TO establish relations with Germany
or any other power, but. whatever views
Germany may formerly have held, II is
certain that she has not the least idea of
interfering with the plans of the United
States as 10 the Philippines. Rather than
involve herself in such difficulties she is
more likely thinking of the Carolines,
which the American government has ad-
visedly refused to concern Itself about.
Neither has England anything against Ger
man acquisition of the Carollnes."
