at Apia. May %:
The department cable of the 18th
inst. received. Will instruct the COM

tenant Lansdale and Ensign Mono
CHAN. Will probably reach San Fran
cisco June %.
The dispatch was evidently brought
into San Francisco by steamer and is
therefore about three weeks old. Ac-
cording to Admiral's Kautz's program
he is probably now at Honolulu. The
run from Honolulu to San Frncisco is
about eight days. so that he will evil

Sensation at the State House.

There is a sensation on foot at the
state house, says a Des MoineS dis
patch, which it is believed will culmi-
nate in the resignation of State Labor
Commissioner OBlenness. O'Blenness
has been unable to attend to the du-
ties of his office for some time and
has not been at the office since about
April |. He was operated upon short
time ago. 1t was said that the opera
ton disclosed the existence Of an alb
normal growth on the underside of the
skull, which, pressing it upon the
brain, produced a temporary suspen-
sion of the mental functions, causing
intermittent alterations. O'Blenness
claims to have received the injury
which led up to the operation by fall
ing from bicycle something over a
year ago. At times he has been at the
office and apparently suffering no pain,
but lately he had on different occa-
siOns wandered away from home and
been found in an unconscious cOndi-
ton. 1t is also stated that O'Blenness,
during the time he suffered from his
injury and was in condition of ir-
responsibility, had overcharged the
state in his expense accounts; that no.
tel bills have been charged for stops
at different places over the state when
in fact C'Blenness was at his home il
Des Moines.

Violating Internal Revenue Law.

A. j. Smith, hotel keeper of Red
Oak, says a Council Bluffs correspon-
dent. was brought before Commissioner
Wright yesterday on the charge Of
violating the internal revenue law by
selling or permitting to be sold within
his premises intoxicating liquor with
out being provided with government
license. Smith was very indignant
over his arrest, and according to his
version of the story a guest in his
hotel had been taken sick and the at
tending physician ordered beer for the
patient. The beer was secured and
the guest charged with the price of 1t.
This was all that Smith said he had
to do with the transaction. He said
he would not stand for thing like
tnat and, after waving examination
and putting up for bond, left Com
missioner Wright's office swearing
vengeance against half the town of
Red Oak.
NJ. r. Pierson of Griswold was also
brought before Commissioner Wright
for selling liquor without license.
The case of Pierson, according to the
story of the deputy marshal who made
the arrest, was simply bOotlegging.
He was bound owed in the sum of 5000
and gave bail for his appearance at
the next term of the federal court.

Twenty-Five thousand Regulars Ready


BOSTON, June 6.-Secretary of War
Alger, with Mrs. Alger, his son, Rus
sell A. Alger. Jr., accompanied by Mrs.
Frank Russell and Mr.. and Mrs. c. d.
Pike, left Boston tonight for Detroit
by the way of Montreal
In the course of an interview Sec
cretary Alger said that the matter of
calling for volunteers for service in
the Philippines has not been decided,
but probably would be when President
Mckinley returned from his visit to
New England.
General Alger was asked if General
Otis had said that 10000 troops were
sufficient to subdue the natives and
he replied that General Otis had at
no time said that it required more
than 10000 troops. He said further:
I'VE have still $4,000 regulars, includ-
ing the artillery, that we can call on
to reinforce the army Of General Otis
If needed we could send off 5000 OF
these in a week and thus allow Gen
eral Otis the full force which he says
he requires for the subjugation of the
Insurgents"

PORT TOWNSEND, June 6.-An-
other confirmation of the death and
distress on the Edmonton range is
brought by J. F. Storye of Ontario,
a passenger on the steamer Dirigo.
Storey, with three others, started for
Dawson seventeen months ago over
the Edmonton route, but were unable
to get through. He says there is a
section of country between Peace
river and Nelson that was never trav-
eled by white man or Indian. The
country is one continuation of swamps
and sloughs. For weeks he and his
companions slept in clothes and blank
cts saturated with water. The twen-
ty-one head of horses with which they
started died and they were compelled
to retrace their steps. At Bard river
they found thirty men suffering from
frostbites and scurvy. Some had
turned black as far up as their thighs.
At every camp they found sickness
and distress. They gave out their
provisions until they ran short them
selves. For six weeks they lived on
rabbits which they shared.
On reaching Telegraph creek Storey
reported the situation to the magis-
trate, who at once started in relief
expedition. He says the number OF
people who have persisted on the trail
will never be known.

New Hampton dispatch: State Vet
erinariar j. /. Gibson has completed
an examination of twenty-one cattle
composing Chickasaw county's poor
farm herd, resulting in sixteen of the
animals being ordered killed, as they
were infected with tuberculosis. This
is the first county in the state to ask
for an official test for the presence of
the deadly bacilli and it is thought
that it is not at all unlikely that this
will lead to a more general action of a
like nature by the supervisors of the
different counties, and it is no more
than proper that the state and counties
should be an example along this line.
There has never been but one state
herd tested during Mr.. Gibson's adj
ministration, being that of the school
the deaf at Council Bluffs, which was
found to be free from the disease.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 6.-At
the request of the British authorities
the war department has directed Cen
eral Otis to suspend the issue of storm
warnings for Hong Kong and the
China coast, heretofore issued from
the Manila observatory, The British
authorities protested that as they had
used their own weather service for
Hong Kong and the China coast, it
was confusing to have an outside SER
vice. Strong efforts are being made
to have the matter reopened.
