WARSH|P IS OVERDUE
Navy Department is Anxious About
Cruiser Newark.

Washington, June 9.-The navy de-
partment is looking for news of the
United States steamship Newark,
which sailed from Montevideo, Urug-
uay, May II, bound for Valparaiso,
Chile, and is now some days overdue.
The distance by way of the Straits OF
Magellan. the route prescribed for the
ship, is little less than 5000 miles.
The only stop by the usual course is at
Puta Arenas, in the straits, where coal
is taken, but there is no cable con-
nection there.
Secretary Long positively declared
that he had no doubt of the safety of
the ship. though it was possible she
had been delayed through some I'M
looked-for conditions. AT the naviga-
ton bureau, Lieutenant Ward called
attention to the fact that the winter
season was just beginning in the south
ern hemisphere, bringing heavy fogs
and bad weather.
The ship was bound from Hampton
Roads for the Pacific station, though it
was generally understood that when
she arrived at Valparaiso or some other
of the ports of western South America
she was to get her orders to turn west
ward and proceed to Apia. 1t is prob
able, however, that the cause for her
presence at Apia has now disappeared,
and the orders will not go forward.

a "BUsTEDn SENSATION.
Rio Grande Western Buying No
Ground For Depot.


The latest and greatest of a recent
series OF fairy tales related by a morn
ing contemporary appeared yesterday,
when it announced, under poster head
lines, that the Rio Grande Western,
through Z. s. WickS and others, had
purchased, for depot purposes, the west
half of the two blocks between Second
and Fourth South and Third and
Fourth West streets. This story was
investigated by The Herald ten days
ago and found to be without founda-
ton and unworthy of publication. 1t
was learned at that time that Mr..
Wicks and another real estate dealer
had secured several options on property
in that section OF the city for specu-
lative purposes, but some of them had
expired and We're not renewed. On
many large tracts along the street men,
toned, no effort has been made to Sc
cure options.
Had the morning contemporary taken
the pains TO interview Superintendent
Welby and Traffic Manager Babcock of
the Rio Grande Western, it would have
learned, as The Herald learned ten
days ago, that there was no foundation
whatever for the story. Both of these
officials declared most positively that
the company had purchased no ground,
ard contemplated no purchase, and
neither had even heard of any depot
project
1T is pure moonshine" said Mr.
WickS yesterday. He denounced the
story as fake, growing entirely out of
the writer's imagination. He had pur-
chased two pieces of property on the
west side, because they were cheap,
but that was all and the Rio Grande
Western had nothing to do with it.
The Pleasant Valley Coal company,
through David J. Sharp, recently pur-
chased some property on Fourth West,
to be used as a coal yard. and this deal
is the probable origin Of the depot
story. 1t is understood that the Coal
company contemplates some further
purchases for the same purpose.

KAUTz At HONOLULU
Admiral on His Way Home From
the Samoan Islands.

San Francisco, June 9.-The steamer
Doric from the Orient via Honolulu
brings the following advices:
Honolulu, June 1.-The United States
ship Philadelphia arrived from Samoa
yesterday on her way to Mare Island.
All parties have agreed to abide by
what the commission decides" said
Rear Admiral kautz this morning,
speaking of Samoan affairs, whether
they will keep their agreement or not
remains to be seen. Malietoa Tanu ap-
peared before the commission several
days before We left and Mataafa the
day we left. Three boats were sent to
bring Malietoa, one representing each
of the three nations. But he came in
his own big war canoe, accompanied
by two others, each containing about
200 men. The sittings of the commission
are not public though they cannot be
said to be secret. Still very little of
what goes on before them becomes pub
licly known. 1 think things will come
out all right.
The situation of Apia is one of quiet
awaiting the result of the work of the
commission.
MY orders from the navy department
were to remain there as long as I
thought 1t necessary. The PHILADELPHIA
is very foul and has needed to go into
the dry dock for a long while. Then
we have large number q men aboard
whose term of service has expired. The
Brutus is there and the Badger. Mat
tiers are quiet and order prevails. The
situation is in the hands of the COM
mission. Under these circumstances I
thought it best to start for San Fran
cisco.
Brings Home Bodies.
Yes, the reports about our ammu-
milton being defective are true, or per-
haps it would be more accurate to say
some of it was very old.
1--WE have the bodies of Lansdale and
Monaghan aboard. They were brave
fellows
The views of the situation have been
so fully expressed in my dispatches to
the navy department that / could not
make them clearer if I talked all night.
/ know I have been roasted in the
states. Still do not think I am unduly
sensitive and when the circumstances
are all understood it won't matter
great deal"
Shrouded under heavy black tarpau-
Inns and crepe the bodies of Lieutenant
Philip " Lansdale and Ensign John r.
Monaghan rest on the bridge of the
Philadelphia. They are being taken to
the land in whose service and under
whose flag they lost their lives.
The bodies of the men from the Phil
adelphia who lost their lives in Samoa,
are buried in the cemetery at Milinuu
in the plot of ground reserved there
for the kings and members of the royal
family. They are Coxswains James
Butler. ordinary seaman Norman E.
Edsall and Privates Thomas Holloway
and John E. Nudge, United States ma
rine corps.
