Cedar City, May 20.-The presidents
party was accorded the spirited demon
stration of the town at Cedar tonight.
Some miles outside of the city a COM
pany of twenty-five horsemen, under
the leadership Of Edward Parry, and
string band met and escorted the
party into town. The streets were
filled with people cheering and waving
flags as the procession passed.
First in line was the Sunday schooi
organization, with about 800 children
and teachers. The primary and its OF
ficers and the Mutual Improvement as
sociations followed, with about 125 stu
dents of the branch normal in line. Cit
liens congregated for blocks along the
main street, and in every way possible
manifested their welcome to the Wis
itorS.
At Kanarra, where a meeting was
held this noon, the school children pre-
scented a very pretty sight, with flags
and banners, one inscription reading.

will accomplish nothing because 1t has
no authority to negotiate for actual
peace. The Importance of the visit
of the commission is the evident de-
sire of the F'ilipinos to end hostilities.
There is an impression also that
Aguinaldo is playing for time in his
request.
No instructions or suggestions will
be sent TO General Otis by the Depart
ment. The officials are confident that
he has the matter well in hand and will
be better able to judge what is best to
do. From the manner in which Cen
eral Otis has handled past negotiations
with the FilipinOS there is little doubt
he will refuse the request for the ar
mistice asked. The position of the
American troops in the Philippines is
such as to render it possible to infiict
great damage to the F'ilipinOs without
serious loss to our forces.
General Otis being aware of the feel
ing of the people as shown by the press
dispatches no doubt believes the Fill
pinos rebellion is crumbling and that
the object of Aguinaldo and other lead
ers in requesting an armistice is to re-
organize their shattered forces. or to
impress the Filipino people with evil
dence of Importance which they do not
possess.

GEN. OTIS REFUSES TO
RECOGNIZE THE REBELS
Outlook For Peace In the Philippines At This Time
Is Not Very Encouraging.
However American Commander Has Notified His Officers
to Refrain From Hostile Action

Manila, May 20.-Major General Otis
has declined to recognize the rebels tC
the extent of agreeing to an armistice
but he has notified the American COM
manders to refrain temporarily from
aggressive action. Thus he is in a po-
sition to resume hostilities at any time
This Will defeat any subterfuges to
gain time, which would not be the case
If the general agreed to an armistice
The FilipinoS are so deceptive that
the people hesitate to credit with good
faith their latest overtures. But more
attention is now paid to them than to
their previous advances. The Filipino
committee is under instructions from
Aguinaldo and the congress. but it is
possible that If peace is agreed, Cen
erals Luna and Pillar will continue a
guerilla warfare.

10000 bolo men, and had the impudence
TO send an ultimatum to the American
commander, ordering him to leave the
island. AS result many of the natives

outposts were doubled. In addition, the

The Chastity Story of Massacre
Revealed,
FOUND in A HIDDEN CAVE
GOLD HUNTERS SLAIN BY INDI-
ANS 500 YEARS AGO.
Peculiar Discovery Made By Boys In
New Mexico - Manuscripts Writ
ten In Spanish and Latin, Told
Where Gold and Silver Could Be
Found In Great Quantities.

Santa Fc, y. NJ, May 20.-E. Gallegos
of Las Vegas, and a number of boys
have discovered d cave in the foothills
six miles from Las Vegas, which con-
tanned a plain tablet in the wall The
boys removed the tablet, and found
that it had protected a niche in the
wall, in which there was a stone box.
in this box were found Latin and Span
fish manuscripts.
f. O. Kihlberg, a Spanish and Latin
scholar, deciphered the manuscripts.
They stated that 300 years ago a party
of Spanish and French coionists from
Mexico were attacked by Indians near
the locality, and all of the party eX
cept four were killed Subsequently
one of the survives died and was
buried close to the cave in which the
documents were stored. The three sur
vivors feared that they would never
reach their country or see their fellow
countrymen again. and gave certain di-
rectionS to be observed by the finders
of the document.
The document stated that at GER
tain distance from the cave the grave
OF the man who died would be found
a certain quantity of gold and silver i'm
bars and bullion, and the shaft to a
gold mine were TO be found i'm the same
locality. 1t was also requested that the
finders IF the treasure should forward
half of it to the heirs of the colonists.
Galleeos found the grave as indi-
Gated, it being covered with a black
slab with hand carving that is no
longer readable. Under it was found
the skeleton of a man. The treasure
has not been found thus far. but a
thorough search has been instituted
Kihlberg offered $500 for the manu-
script, and Hon. T. b. Catron $500
for it

BRYAN AT POPUL|ST BANQUET
ADVOCATES FUSION IN a
SPEECH AT OMAHA.
Glories In Fact That He Has Been
Given Cold Shoulder By Certain
Populists and Democrats.

Omaha, May 20.-The Peter Cooper
Populist club of this city, an organi-
cation of only a few months standing,
gave its initial banquet at Creighton
hall this evening. The occasion served
to bring together the Nebraska follow
ers of Populistic doctrines, especially
that wing that has been ardent from
first to last in the support of W. j.
Bryan. Mr.. Bryan was one of the
guests of the evening. and responded
to a toast, the last on the list, during
which time the lights went out and
the gathering broke up in confusion.
Covers were laid for 300, and every
seat was taken. Judge William Neville
of North Platte officiated as toastmas-
ter. The principal speakers were Gov
ernor w. A. Poynter, Ex-Governor ST.
las A. Holcombe, General ]. 3. Weaver
of Iowa and w. j. Bryan.
The governor eulogized the Populist
party, and spoke feelingly Of the Ne
braska volunteer soldiers. He also en-
dorsed the Omaha platform. General
Weaver made rather a violent attack on
the administration for its policy in the
Philippines.
Ex-Governor Holcombe toasted 1.-The
Judiciary" and occupied considerable
time in praise of former United States
Senator w. V. Allen, who now occu-
pies a place on the bench, appointed
thereto by Mr.. Holcombe.
Mr.. Bryan was the last speaker, and
was warmly received. He reiterated his
well known views on the money ques-
ton, and gloried in the fact that he
was given the cold shoulder by factions
of the Populist and Democratic par
ties.
His subject was ."Our Nation" and

to save. The course of the administra-
ton in the Philippines was criticised,

speech was received with applause.

HIS ITINERARY NOT KNOWN.
Navy Department Not Posted as to
Particulars of Trip.


Washington, May 20.-Admiral Dewey
cables the navy department that he has
sailed with the Olympia from Manila
to Hongkong.
So far the navy department knows
nothing except in the most general way
of the itinerary of Admiral Dewey s
cruise from Manila to New York He
has reported simply that he will come
by the Suez route, and has not indicat-
ed officially how long he will take in
making the trip. The actual depart
ure of the Olympia was made known
in the following five words, coming
from Captain Barker at Manila:
olympia Hongkong. Assumed COM
mand.''
The belief at the department is that
the admiral will spend about two weeks
at Hongkong, for the Olympia is to be
locked and her drab warpaint must
be covered with the spotless white
which makes the American naval ship
the most beautiful in the world.
In the absence of other information,
it is assumed that the Olympia from
Hongkong will follow the usual course
of warships coming home by way of the
Suez canal. She will touch first after
Hongkong at Singapore, then at Co
lombo. then perhaps at Alden at tie
entrance of the Red sea, to take on
crew of Lascars to fire the boilers in
the intensely hot passage through that
sea and the Suez canal. Stops will be
made of necessity at Suez and Port
Said. 1t is assumed that Malta will be
touched and perhaps Genoa or Nice,
before rea ching Gibraltar. Leaving the
Mediterranean, the Olympia viii stand
straight across the Atlantic, though she
may put in at the Azores for two days.
The time that should be occupied by
such ship is variously estimated by
naval officers, but the average is about
seventy days from today.
However, the public will soon be able
to get a more accurate knowledge of the
itinerary, for within a few days the
navy department will be in possession
of the schedule of the ships move
mentS.

TO be found is in the now extinct vol
canoes, one of which is within a stones
throw CT the road. Lava rock is in evil
dence for miles around and the crater
can be looked into at a depth of twenty
Feet. The mountain appears much the
same as a shelters dump and would
be much more impenetrable.
Twenty-Six hours. the time in which
the trip was made, is the most remark
| able ever recorded for a journey be-
tween Salt Lake and ST. George. The
drive from Modena, something over
sixty miles of very rough country, was
made in about ten and half hours. in
Guiding a stop of an hour and a half for
lunch. There were twelve conveyances
in the party.
Many Interesting Characters.
The temple, considered first. st.
George boasts of having among her
residents the man who discovered gold
in California-Henry w. Bigler. He is
at present doorkeeper at the temple.
and a very genial, though odd, genius
he proved to be when called upon. Next
there is John Pymm, the veteran post
master of the state. He has made up
the mails OF st. George for thirty-five
consecutive years, and assisted by his
model housewife, conducts the towns
unpretentious hosiery. Any number
of old Indian fighters reside here, as
well as veterans of the Mormon bat
talon, who can spin yarns and inter-
esting "reminiscences by the day or
week-just as the listener prefers.
Eighteen miles to the southwest Of
st. George is the Apex copper mine,
very valuable property, recently leased
of the company by King, Old and
Adams, the former being DR.. ]. c. King
of Salt Lake. The leasers have erected
a fine smelter, which was put into OPP
Grafton for the first time at the begin
ming of this week. The Apex group
numbers eleven claims, one of which is
a producer at present. Twenty tons of
ore shipped in April averaged 81 per
cent copper. The low-grade ore Will
be worked by the local smelter. in
which about sixteen st. George men
are employed. while the high-grade can
be shipped north with a profit.

the Denver General Assembly.

| tuition of the United States, and con-
gresS is supposed to know more about

is affecting the entire country. 1 say

Mr.. Roberts is charged with being
immoral in that he is a polygamist.
That may be true. Still, it is not d
matter which this assembly should

judge this. Let congress do it's duty
in the matter
Jones was interrupted frequently by
half-smothered CALCULATIONS from other
delegates, many of which were plainly
audible and displayed warm disapprov-
al of his remarks.
The moderator raped sharply with
his gavel when Mr.. Jones had closed,
and scores were waiting to be heard.
1t looked as though Mr.. Jones' views
Were upheld by no more than a small
minority.
After some warm discussion, Mr..
Jones moved that the matter be tabled
until later. and taken up under the
order of unfinished business. The mo-
ton was carried.
