THE ALLEGED PLAGUE.

The Board OF Health has again
declared that the bubonic plague is
here and the doctors have reported
three deaths from the dreaded dis
ease. The following were the VIC
Tins:

died Of bubonic plague, Sat urday,

day night.

Chong Mon Dow, male, age "a;
died Dec. rs h at Kewalo; certificate
OF death by Chinese physician,
Chow Wing Ching; postmortem
showed death caused by plague, *
Upon receiving the report ofthe
physicians the President OF the
Board of Health called meeting
when the matter was thoroughly
discussed. Mr.. Cooper spoke very
conservatively declining to take up
on himself the authority OF the
board by stating officially that the
cases reported were those of the
plague.
The medical officers OF the B ,ard
asserted positively that the three
deaths were caused by the bubonic
plague.
Under the circumstances certain
quarantine restrictions will he en-

HIS BEE is BUzzING.
Colonel NJ. c. Wetmore Is Now a Can.
didate for Governor of
Missouri.

Missouri.
The announcement has been made In this
city and in other parts of the state that
Colonel M. C. Wtemore, of st. Louis, is a
candidate for governor. This statement,
coming within few days after the an
nouncement of his aspirations for the vice
presidential nomination, is ample evidence
that Colonel Wetmore is in Missouri poll
tics with a determination to land some
thing in the scramble for political honors.
The candidacy of Colonel Wetmore has
caused the gubernatorial armament to as
sumo new aspect. Heretofore 1t has ap-
.peared that Dockery has had clear field.
The candidacy of Ball, Crow and others
has never been considered seriously. With
Colonel Wetmore in the race, the position
of Ex-Governor Stone is no longer in the
doubtful column. The friendship that has
existed between Stone and the new candi-
date is an old story. Colonel Wetmore has
offered to place a fortune at the disposal
of Stone in the event that the former gov
ernor is the Democratic nominee for pres
ident. The two well known figures are
more than intimately associated, and If
Wetmore is nominated his entire campaign
will be managed by William ]. Stone.
Colonel Wetmore is a well known figure
IN Missouri; His attitude toward the trusts 3t:;
friends are already making capital out OF
the speech that was delivered to the em-
ployes of the Liggett & Myers TOBACCO
sorbed by the tobacco trust.
Another name that has been frequently
mentioned in the race for governor is that
of Judge Dorsey w. Shackleford. He has
large following in Central and Northern
Missouri, and his entrance into the lists
would affect the Stephens crowd. Judge
Shackleford has been associated with the
clique that is dominated by the governor.
but the wise ones say that his candidacy
would cause the governor to throw his
forces toward Dockery as the latter looks
more like a winner than does Shackleford

WELCOME THE HEROES.
Kansas City, Kas., Favors Idea of En-
tertaining Them in Convention
HoII


The people of Kansas City. Kas., are en-
thusiastic over giving the Twentieth
Kansas regiment rousing welcome on its
return home and feel gratified over the
fact that Kansas City, Mo-, has recognized
that the Kansas soldiers have won fame
and glory. on the other side of the contin-
ent. The people of the metropolis have
already begun laying plans for the recep-
ton, and as there is no place in the city
where vast crowd, such as would be pres
ent, could be accommodated. the idea of
holding it in the Convention hall has met
with general approval.
The matter will probably be brought up
at the meeting of the Mercantile Club at
its meeting tonight and it is likely that
a committee will be appointed to take the
matter in hand. The idea of a grand ban.
quet in the Convention hall, as suggested
in The Journal several days ago, meets
with popular favor. but the people OF
Kansas City. kas.. want TO add several
other features to this and one Of the grand
est demonstrations ever held will be ar
ranged for by the time the Kansas heroes
return.
Besides taking part in the general well
come to the regiment. Kansas City, Kas..
will prepare a glorious reception for Com
pany b. the home company. Every man IN
the company has distinguished himself as
true hero, and several of them have per-
formed acts of bravery which are not far
behind those of Hobson and his crew.
The idea of sending the regiment home by
way of the Suez canal was entered into
with a hearty spirit by everyone in the
city but as it is supposed that the refusal
of the war department will be final the
business men, and in fact everyone, have
taken up the reception with a will. and
when the boys return they Will be ac-
quainted with the fact that the people OF
the state are very proud of them, and that

ORDERS LAWToN TO oWITHDRAW
REVISED PROPOSALS FROM GEN.
ERAL LUNA EXPECTED.
Although HostiIities Are Suspended
There Is No Cessation of Prep
arntions for a Continuance
of the Campaign Now
Under Way.

MANILA, April 30.-Whiie 1t is the gener-
al expectation among Americans that the
Filipino emissaries will return with revised
proposals from General Antonio Luna, Ma
jor General Otis is not letting this prospect
interfere with his preparations for pushing
the war. Yesterday he ordered Major Gen.
eral Lawton to return to Angat, a few
miles northwest of Norzagaray, and not 10
advance aggressiyely while the negotiations
are pending. General Macarthur is ap
parently acting on the same policy, but
he Is repairing bridges and strengthening
the lines of his force, which is stretched
out with four-mile front and within a
quarter of mile of the enemy.
The possibilities of peace are gratifying
to great majority of the army who have
regarded the war as an unpleasant duty
that must be performed according to Amer
lean traditions. t,1 -.
Manila Is cheerful over the prospect of a
return to normal life, though there are
skeptics who remark that a truce would en-
able the insurgents to rest until the rainy
season. upon which they have been de-
pending as an important aid.
The prisoners report that there are 1900
refugees north of San Fernando. This is
not impossible, considering the thickly pop
ulated region which the Americans have
cleared. 1t seems also that smallpox is
spreading among them.
The so-called Filipino congress will meet
at San Fernando tomorrow.
When Dean {. Worcester, of the United
States Philippines commission, who accom-
panied the Filipino emissaries from Calum-
pit, said to Colonel Manuel ArgueIles that
the Americans were under no obligations
to refrain from fighting, the Filipino Off.
Ger said:
Would you fight while we are discussing
terms of peace?"
Mr.. Worcester responded with the sug.
gestion that an armisticc would give the
Filipino leaders time to escape.
My God. where would we escape top
the Filipino exclaimed, referring in this tc
the menacing hostile tribes behind the Fill.
ipino lines.
Colonel ArguelIes told the correspondent
of the Associated Press that he was much
disappointed in the result of his mission.
He said also that Aguinaldo expected Cal
umpit TO be the cemetery of the American
army.
