 Coconino Sun: John Woody aud w. D. Black came in from their cattle range on the Little Colorado river, northeast of here, yesterday. They report an exciting adventure with the Navajoes which occurred one day last week. Mir. Woody and another cat tleman, while on the north side of the river looking after stray cattle, en- countered band of dozen Indians driving ten of their brand. On the approach of the cattlemen the Indians drew their guns, but while one of them parlied with the Indians the other started the cattle back towards the river and both succeeded in get ting away without a clash with the Indians. When they reached the river they found two Navajos holding a herd of fifty cattle, but they fled on the approach of the white men. The Indians have no cattle of the reserva. tion, but add to their wealth by steal ing from the cattlemen.

uold Paths Methodistic..

AT the Howard Street Methodist Epis-
copal Church yesterday morning the pas
tor, Rev. DR.. John A. B. Wilson, preached
the third of a series of sermons on "Old
Paths Methodistic.'' The fundamental
principles as announced by its founder
and that which underlie the system were
examined into as to their Biblical char
acter the philosophy of their relation to
American Methodistic growth and as an
inspiration for future effort and sacrifice.
His text was jeremiah withstand We

The immediate principle under eXamina-

INCREASES THE
CUBAN BURDEN
Claims for Damages
From Foreigners.
Special Dispatch to The call.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE State
Department has been informally advised
that claims aggregating a considerable
amount have. been made by British,
French and German residents in Cuba
during the recent insurrection and that
these ultimately will be pressed against
the United States Government The
claims themselves have not yet been pre-
sented, but are being collected by the
several foreign Offices as the claimants
send them in. In some cases schedules
have been made and the aggregate stated
to the authorities here. The French
claims aggregate between 10000 900 and
Is 100000 francs. The German claims are
understood to be slightly under those of
the French, while British claims are said
to be considerably more than either the
French or German.
These foreign claims are quite distinct
from those of the citizens of the United
States originally against Spain for dam
ages sustained in Cuba during the insur-
rectfon. The peace treaty specifically
provided for these American claimants,
releasing Spain and stating that the
United States would make such settle
ment as was proper Under this clause
claims aggregating several millions have
been filed. No provision, however, was
made by the treaty for foreign claimants
and there appears to be much doubt as
over Cuba has passed from the hands of
Spain. The United States having under
taken to look after the American claims,
the foreigners are desirous of being
treated in the same manner 1t was
stated at one of the foreign establish
ments that there was no disposition to
push the claims unduly, but to bring
them to the attention of the United
States Government in order that the
question of liability might be determined
and such relief granted as the merits of
the cases. warranted. 1t is appreciated
in these foreign quarters that payments
will be largely a matter of discretion
with the United States. as the obligation
TO look after the American claimants was
assumed voluntarily. and there is no obli-
cation, either in the treaty or on gen.
eral principles of law, for assuming the
claims growing out of Spain's inability
to maintain order in Cuba during the
period of Spanish rule.
These foreign claims cover damages to
plantations. personal property, etc, of
French, British and German residents of
Cuba, and are not connected with the
bonded debt of Cuba in foreign hands,
which debt was assumed in Spain.

A CHANCE FOR CALIFORNIA.
Failure of the Fruit Crop of the South

That there has been a good deal more

the Eastern market will have to be taken
by California fruit. 1t ought to be a good
