ROBBERY IS STILL A MYSTERY
NO TRACE OF THE STEAMER
ALAMEDA THIEVES.
Officers Are Puzzled As to How the
$25, 900 Made Its Disappearance
From Strong Room.

San Francisco, June 3-Nothing new
has developed IN the mysterious robbery
of So, 900 from the strong box of the
steamer Alameda which arrived from
Australia last night. The detectives are
exerting- every energy to gain some clue
of the conspirators, but have so far been
unable to uiiedrth anything tangible.
The officers of the steamship company
are at a loss to account for the theft and
seem inclined to believe that the monev
was stolen after the steamer left Sydney
and was sent ashore at Auckland though
they have no trsticular reason for this
belief.
The robbery is the most inexplicable
that the local police have ever encoun-
tered, but they have not given up hone
of eventually landing the guilty persons,
or at least of giving the Australian au-
thorities such aid that they can appre-
hend the thieves if they are on Australian
soil.

to whom was shipped the f150.c00 from
which the missing f5.G00 were abstracted,

of the money until they are assured that
the shortage Will be made good by the
steamship company. 1t is understood the
company will do this.
A similar robbery occurred on the
steamer Oceana on the Australian-China
route some time ago. and it is suspected
the same thieves robbed the Alameda.
Twenty-Five thousand dollars was stolen
from the Oceana in exactly the same
manner as from the Alameda, that is to

moved mysteriously and the seal re-
placed

PLEA FOR SURRENDER.
Friendly Filipinos Advance a Novel
Argument

Seattle, Wash, June According to
a letter from a Washington volunteer
in the Philippines, a novel argument
has been presented by Filipinos at
Manila who favor the unconditional
surrender of the Insurgents. They have
sent a resolution into the interior,
which reads in part as follows:
Would to God that the Filipinos
might learn lesson from the sad his
tory of the confederate states of Amer
ica.
The confederates were defeated by
land and sea more completely than
were the Spaniards and after four
years of most bitter and bloody fight
ing they surrendered unconditionally.
Their land was laid to waste and the
country is still far behind other sec
tons of the United States in prosperity.
We have certainly shown our pat
riotism and bravery and surely our
honor has been satisfied. We have
nothing to gain and everything to lose
by the UNEQUAL struggle. We have a
group of 1000 islands inhabited by
100000 people. They have $4,000, 900
now and 5000, 900 blacks as we'll able TO
stand the tropical climate as Filipinos
America is generous as is shown by
treatment OF the confederate states af-
ter surrendering.
Let us give up. Already there is
party in the union that favors giving
us liberty, but that only after American
honor has been satisfied by our COM
plete defeat"

MRS. cRAwIvRD's LETTER.
Tells of Colonel Du Play du Clam and
His Wife


Copyright, 1899, by the Associated Press.)
Paris, June 3.-CoIonel Du Patty du
Clam is confined in the cell where he
tortured Dreyfus. He showed himself
a torturing inquisitor bereft of con-
science. What an awful awakening
olere must be now of the hidden mon
itor. Nemesis has been less hating
than the usual in overtaking. 1 am
told that he was preparing to escape
to Belgium when he was arrested.
Madame Du Patty du Clam is sister
of the Duke de Ursel a great Belgian
noblenlan, who is also governor of the
province of Hainault. His hrst cousin
is Count Nun, head of the Catholic
party in the French chamber of depu-
ties. Her brother recently marie a
daughter of Comte and Comtesse de
Franqueville nee Erard. They are
owners of the Chateau Muette, at
Passy. which was formerly "a royal
shooting lodge. The chateau stands in
a large park, with stately avenues OF
ancient trees planted 200 years ago.
Madame du Patty du Clam had the
clerical party behind her, and Colonel
Du Patty du Clam was protected by his
cousin, NJ. Cavaignac. He, feeling him
self forsaken, is likely to make revela-
tions General Mercier, formerly min
ister of war, shows nervousness,
though not the white feather. He, too.
was advised to go abroad, but he Will
not do so.
Before Colonel Du,Paty du CLAIMS ar
rest, his description and photographs
of him were sent to the frontier conf
missioners of police.

sToTsENBURG WAS NOT CRUEL.
Cloud Lifted From Memory Of the
Dead Officer.

Washington, June 3.-The war de-
partment today made public state
ment containing reports received from
General Otis at Manila concerning the
charges preferred by relatives and
friends of the enlisted men of the First
Nebraska regiment against the late
Colonel John NJ. Stotsenburg, who COM
manded that regiment when he was
killed. The charges embraced allega-
tions of ill-treatment of the men of his
command, and were accompanied by a
resolution of the house of representa-
tives of the Nebraska legislature re-
quiring a complete and thorough inves-
tigation of the matter.
General Otis, under orders from the
war department, had the charges in
vestigated, and, according to the state
ment issued today, found them ground
less. The men and officers of the First
Nebraska were enthusiastic in their
praise of the late colonel.
General Otis and General MacAarthur
also speak in eulogistic terms of Col
onel StotSenburg.

absolutely no connection with the matter,
and they were completely exonerated.

cured a brief interview with NJ. Emile

THE ALASKA BOUNDARY.
Arrange to Avert Danger of Hos

Washington, June SIT is learned at

rangement of a modus vivendi to avert
the danger of a hostile collision on the
Alaskan border during the present sea-
son, at least.
1t. is expected to resume the negotia-
tions for settlement of the whole boun-
dary question when Sir Julian Paunce-
fote returns from The Hague. There
is every reason to believe the attempt
to secure a modus vivendi will succeed,

sents the peculiar situation of a naval
officer being recommended for promo
tion by the commander of an army
corps, and this recommendation being
approved by the admiral of the fleet.
Ensign Davis exploit consisted in
volunteering to take ashore Colt au-
tomato gun from the Helena and CO.
operating with Major Young of the
Utah battery in MacArthur'S advance
on Caloocan. He reported on Feb. 27,
with three marines, the regular gun
, crew and remained ashore until April
4. During this time his gun and de-
tachment accompanied the artillery in
the forward movement and at the at
tack on Cabalahan he practically saved
a detachment of the Fourth cavalry
from being wiped out in attacking an
inSurgent entrenchment.
How He Saved Detachment.
The cavalry had suffered severely in
attacking a very elaborate redoubt,
losing 30 per cent of their number
killed and wounded At this time
gun of the Utah battery and Ensign
Davis with his Colt gun were brought
forward under cover to within 125 yards
of the insurgent trenches. The COM
bined fire of these two pieces absolute
ly silenced the redoubt.
On March q, Ensign Davis at his own
rQueSI advanced TO the Dank OF the
Marilas river within seventy-five yards
of an insurgent trench on the oppo-
site side. Here as in the preceding
case, he was under ferocious fire, but
again he succeeded in absolutely clear
ing the trench and forcing the surren-
der of about twenty-five men who re-
mained in it alive.
On March 30, he again went into ac-
ton on the railroad bridge at Garquin-
to under dangerous cross fire and on
March 81, again co-operated in the ar
tillery attack on Ponta Malelos. On
April 4, he went forward to the Quin-
qua river and pushed the automatic
gun forward to a position on the oppo-
site bank within $50 yards of the
enemy's trenches. Here he was tenn
porarily in command of one of Lieuten-
ant Fleming's guns during the latter's
absence and here, as in the other places
was under a vicious fire
On ending his short service he was
recommended for promotion by Major
Young with warm endorsements from
General Macarthur and Major General
Otis.

THE Los Angeles Times has just won a silver sugar bowl in com petition between the leading dailies in the southern half of the United States, instituted by d New York advertising agent a harpy who preys upon the newspaper press and advertising public-to determine which journal of tue Times class gives the most advertising space for the least money. The decision an- nounced conveys the information that for such an advertisement as the Washington Post receives more than five thousand dollars per an u am the Times gives for less than nineteen hundred. The Times has a practical monopoly in its own field, and for a great part of its business can be competed with by no journal outside of that field. Taking those facts into considera- tion with tue additional fact that the business public who patronize the columns of the Times are as we'll able to pay for space as any such public anywhere If not better able-it strikes THE OASIS that the Times has paid pretty high price for its sugar bowl.
