Paris, March NAVAL Lieutenant
Louis NJ. j. Viaud, who was peremptorily
placed on the retired list last summer, is
to return to active service Lieutenant
yiaud is much better known as Pierre
Lott" the writer of fantastic and erratic
romances and books of travel. He Is near

in connecting diatribes against tho

the French ministry always patient with
the eccentricities of men of letters, could
put on the retired list. and the critics also
remarked that since Lott had engaged

The Spanish naval defeats at Manila and

Havana, March 1.-The Seventh

First division, of which twelve are in

In the First division there are nine

are vigorously observed. Underground
sewers are being laid and main pipe
connections will be completed some
time during March.
The Two Hundred and Second New
York regiment is ready to break
camp. but will not leave for several
days. Its departure will depend upon
the arrival of the transport Mime

BOTH TO BLAME IN SAMOA
Germany Recalls Rafael and Justice
Chambers Is Likely to Be
Superseded.

Kansas City, March 1.-The Stars
Washington correspondent says:
AS indicating the friendly purpose
of the German government to bring
the Samoan controversy to settle
ment satisfactory to the United States,
Herr Salt, the newly elected president
of the municipal council of Apia, will
come to the United States before pro-
ceeding to his post to confer with Sec
rotary Hay and other administration
officials.
Herr Salt will succeed Herr Rafael,
who left Apia on February 90 for Ber-
lin, where he will be compelled to
make a report to his home govern
ment in explanation of his conduct at
Apia. Herr Salt is now on duty in one
of the German possessions in Africa,
and has been instructed to first pro-
coed to Berlin.
1t was stated today that the Samoan
question has never been at danger
point. as has been. reported, but fault
has been displayed on both sides, and
Germany and the United States pro-
pose to take action to restore order
Herr Rose will, in all probability. be;
removed and Chief Justice Chambers
is expected to be recalled.
Chief Justice Chambers recall will
not be due to his decision or to his
course, but to the letter he wrote to
his brother and which contained state
ments Objectionable to the German
government, which have been COM
municated to the state department.
The officials say that his usefulness
has gone to some extent as the re-
suit of his letter, and Germany has in
timated that she would be pleased if
some other person were appointed as
his successor. Within ten days it is
expected that reports will be received
from the three consuls fully explain
ing their acts, and when these have
been considered action will be taken
by the two governments.
There is one other point-who shall
be king of Samoa-which remains To
be settled by diplomatic negotiations.
Germany will insist that Mataafa, by
reason of the overwhelming majority
ne received at the election, should be
made king, but the decision of the
chief justice and the protocol of the
Berlin treaty excludes him forever
from consideration in connection with
the kingship.
The administration proposes to sup
port Tanu. Great Britain is similarly
inclined, and, as majority rules, he
will probably be established on the
throne.

BECOMES A CATHOLIC AGAIN.
Archbishop Atlatte, or"old casho-

Archbishop Ailatte, of"Old Catho.
lies" Submits to Papal uthortty.
Milwaukee. Wis, March 2.-Josef
Rene Vilatte, known as archbishop OF
the Old Catholics in America, d former
priest of the Fond du Lac Episcopal
diocese, whose cathedral has been at
Green Bay. has left the Old Catholic
church, after futile efforts to secure
recognition, both in this country and
abroad. He has submitted himself
wholly and Internationally to the
authority of the Roman Catholic
church.
Vilatte is now in Rome, waiting for
the supreme congregation of the holy
Office to pass upon the validity of his
ordination and to determine whether
he shall remain in future simply Ro-
man layman or become Roman
priest. His recantation is most broad,
and acknowledges what Canon st.
George and Bishop Grafton have been
claiming for years, that he obtained
his orders in an unlawful and irregu-
lar way, and that he illicitly and sac
rilegiously conferred holy orders upon
others. -
The most recent act of Nilatte was
the ordination of Father lgnatius In
England, which caused such a sensa.
ton in the church in that country
Following his action in ordaining Fa-
Their Ignatius, Nilattc was subjected to
a most severe and sensational expose
by Bishop Grafton. of Fond du Lac.
and since that time Nilatte has been
expected in this country to take some
action i'm his own defense.
Vilatte was Roman Catholic priest
i'm former years. He also tried the
Presbyterian and Congregational de-
nominations.

ORDERED TO MANILA AT ONCE.
Hospital Ship Relief Will Probably
Sail Thursday.

Hospital snip Keller Will Probably
Sail Thursday.
New York, March 1.-Orders have
been issued to the hospital ship Re-
lief to sail for Manila at the earliest
possible moment and to move at as
great speed as is safe. 1t is expected
that she will start on Thursday after
noon. This is sooner than was thought
possible week ago. The engineer of
the Relief thinks she can reach the
Philippines in forty-four or forty-five
days. The boat has frequently made
II knots. The Relief is taking on sup.
plies and will coal today. The first
orders were for the Relief 80 sail on
February Is, but the severe weather
hindered the work of renovating the
boat. For the long voyage heavy
strengthening beams have been put in
the upper works. All the machinery
has been put in good shape and new
propeller fitted so that she can make
good speed.
Major A. f. Bradley, surgeon in the
regular army, is in charge Of the Re-
lie: The vessel is to carry hospital
corps of $50 men and women nurses.
The Relief's cargo will consist of
enough medical supplies for $4,000
men for year.
