Der of people assembled at the landing
stage here to-day to witness the de-
barkation of the passengers who ar
rived here on the White Star Line
steamer Teutonic, which left New York
June 14th.
When they were all ashore it was
announced that Mr.. and Mrs. KiplinS

pede to the railway station ensued, and
the train in waiting was Intellectually
searched 1t was then discovered that
the popular author was still on board
the Teutonic, and the crowd raced back
to the steamer, reaching the vessel just
in time to see Mr.. Kipling walk quickly
down the gangway. He refused to be
interviewed, saying emphatically that
he had nothing to communicate to the
public He made his way to the sta
ton, took a corner seat in a railroad
carriage, and began reading a paper
and smoking. Those who saw him when
he went to the United States say Mr..

TROOPS TO BE SENT HOME.
Governor Tanner Thinks They Are
Not Needed at Pana.

PANA QH.), June 22.-Major Cabins,
in command of Companies D and H,
Fifth Illinois Infantry, has received
orders from Governor Tanner to send
his men home Monday morning and
to notify all citizens that upon the
presentation of receipts the arms taken
from them by the military will be re-
turned to them. The recall Of the troops
was received by the majority of citi-
zens with pleasure and the general
opinion is that there will be no further
conflict between the opposing factions.
Many of the imported negroes have
already left and the remainder will
leave shortly. The operators, however,
claim they are engaging 200 negroes
to take the places of those who have
left and expect them to arrive Satur-
day. The military officers believe riots
will follow the removal of the troops.
Mayor German, Chief of Police Kiely
and Sheriff Downey say there will be no
trouble, but in case of an outbreak
they will be able to care for the situa-
ton and restore order The mine own
ers say it will be. impossible for the
civil officials to prevent trouble. They
will send a committee with a petition
to Governor Tanner, urgently request
ing that the troops remain here

Je2ries Will Not Ask Them to
Whip Others First.

DENVER, June 2o.-Sam Thall, rep
resenting champion Jim Jeffries, is in
the city, making arrane ats with
Manager Otto c.. Floto of the Colorado
Athletic Club, for an exhibition by
Jeffries before tSe club June Both. Mr..
Thall will go from here to San Fran
cisco, where he will arrive Monday
night.
Jeffries and party will be in San
Francisco July 6th and will be well
coined with a reception by the Olympic
Club of San Francisco and the Reliance
Club of Oakland, at which the final
round of the Jeffries- Fitzsimmons fight
will be illustrated by Jim and his
brother
On July 10th, Jeffries Will go to Los
Angeles, where he will remain a week
He then goes East and will sail for
London July 9th.
Mr.. Than says the story that Jeffries
was examined by physician in New
Haven who pronounced him in bad
health is unfounded He says Jeffries
is willing to meet Mccoy in a reasona-
BILE time after his fight with Sharkey:
Said he: Jim will not. as other
champions have done, insist upon wait
ing a year or two between fights, nor
ask his opponents to- get regulations
by whipping other pugilists. He stands
ready to defend the championship
against all comers and only asks rea-
sonable time in which to get into proper

There is a disposition in all diplo-
matte quarters concerned in Samoa to

ably best able to determine the means

CARDINALS HATS PRESENTED
Pope Holds Another Consistory for
That Purpose.


ROME June 22-The Pope held an
other consistory to-day to present the
hats of the recently made Cardinals
with the exceptions of the Papal Nuncio
at Madrid and the Archbishop of Cor
itz. The ceremony occurred for the
first time in the Hall of the Loggie,
near the entrance of ST. Peters. About
5000 people were present, including the
diplomatic corps, church dignitaries and
Latin-American Bishops. The Pope,
who was in good health, entered and
departed in the sedia gestoria, escorted
by the flabelli He conducted the GER
emony with ease, in spite of it's length
and the strength of his holiness was re-
marked when the Pontiff gave his BEN
edfction. The Pope was loudly ac-
claimed upon his entry and departure
from the hall. He afterwards held a
secret consstory with the usual cere-
mony of opening and shutting the
mouths of the new Cardinals. The
latter were received in the Pope's pri-
vate apartments.
At the secret consistory to-day the
Pope announced among the appoint
ments to Bishoprics:
Father Christie, Oregon; Father Den
mis- O'Connor, Toronto, and Father
Clontier, Three Rivers, Quebec.
Father Enouxelle is appointed Auxil-
iary Archbishop of New Orleans.

The Largest Rebel Force Yet Mob
lIlzed.
Has Brought 1000 Men From the
Antipo1o Region and Il Ex-
ceedingly Troublesome-General
MacArthur and His Troops
Anxious to Meet Him.

MANILA, June 23.-(11:25 a. m.)-
Aguinaldo does not seem to be satis-
fed with the attempt of the insurgents
to retake San Fernando and he has
taken command of General Luna's
army and massed the largest rebel
force yet mobilized, bringing 1000 men
from the Antipolo region.
He is exceedingly troublesome. Last
night his men wounded two members
of the Seventeenth regiment. General
MacArthur's men are constantly on the
alert to repel any attacks by the rebels,
sleeping upon their arms. The General
sincerely hopes that the Filipinos will
give him another chance for battle,
for the soldiers really enjoy an oppor-
tunity to fight them when they can do
so without wading through swamps to
catch them.

NEW YORK, June D. = A de-
tective detailed to watch the
Grand Central Station boarded the in
coming o'clock Boston train at One
Hundred and Twenty-fifth street, and
walked from the first car through the
rear car, the smoker. Lambele was
sitting in the rear of the car enjoying
a cigar. The detective made no move
to arrest the robber. whom he recog
nized from the description furnished,
until after the Grand Central Station
was reached He followed Lambele
out to the sidewalk and there informed
him that he was under arrest. A short
struggle ensued, and Lambele was
overpowered
He put his hand in his pocket and
drew from it the roll of bills, con-
tanning $4,000, which he offered to
part with for his freedom.
AT police headquarters the prisoner
said he was George Shea, 21 years old.

to give his residence He was recog-
nized as an old offender. He was ar
rested in this city in September. 1896,
for stealing $124 from Zimmerman &
Forshay. Wall-street brokers' He was
arrested in July, 1898, for attempting
to steal jewelry in Maiden Lane. He
was not tried for the first offense, and
on the second charge he was convicted.
He has also been arrested in Chicago.
The roll of bills stolen from the Bos-
ton bank was untouched. 1t consisted
of two $1,000 bills, two $500 bills, and
the remainder in 500 bills.
Although he gave his name as Shea,
the robber was recognized as Philip
Lambele by letter in his pocket

MANILA, June 22-7:3O p. m.-De-
tails of the sentencing of Colonel AR
guelles, a Filipino Commissioned, to
twelve years Imprisonment have just
been obtained here. 1t was first re-
ported that his condemnation by the
Filipinos was due to the friendship he
displayed toward Americans, but the
information just received shows the
accusation against him was not based
on his peace conferences at Manila. as
supposed. They confirm President
Schurmann's belief in his sincerity, and
show that his advocacy of autonomy
among the insurgents was treated as
treason The charge against the Coll
onel was that in conversation with Fill
pino officers he predicted that disor-
ders within the insurgent territory
would lead to civil war, and therefore.
he said he considered autonomy under
the Americans preferable to independ-
ence. The Filipino Congress tried him
on the charge of treason. and heated
debate on autonomy followed. Finally,
the Colonel was sentenced to death, but
this was commuted to twelve years
Imprisonment on account of his pre-
vious services to the cause, after an
eloquent plea on the part of his coun-
sci. -
Colonel Arguelles is one Of the most
conservative and respected men identi-
fled with the insurrection. The rebels
have learned that the American volun-
teers are returning to the United
States, and the Filipino newspapers
show that they construe this to mean
that the Americans are abandoning the
war, and are encouraged thereby.
The outposts Of the Washington reg
iment yesterday captured General Pho
del Pillars brass band OF eighty-two
pieces, the members of which somehow
became separated from the rebel army
and came near the American lines
without having the means of resist
ance. Some Cinnamon of Manila have

which, it appears, were leased by the
musicians of General Pho del Pillar
Four of the wounded Of the Fourth
Infantry, in the recent fight with the

.ELkS ELECT THEIR OFFICERS.
A PRIZE DRILL YESTERDAY AT
THE COLISEUM.
The Contestants Prevented q Fine
Appearance and Were Ac-
curate in Movements.

ST. LOUIS (Mo.), June %. = The
principal events of the Elks reunion
to-day were the prize drill at the Coli
scum and the meeting of the Grand
Lodge. The band contests also at
tracted considerable attention. There
are six bands entered in the contest
for the three prizes of $1,000, $500 and
$3.50. 1t is expected that the election
of officers for the ensuing year will
take place late this afternoon. Judge
B. M. Allen of Birmingham, Ala, win
succeed Exalted Ruler John Calvin of
Cincinnati, who has declined re-elec-
ton. He is the only candidate for that
position. The only contest is for the
position of Grand Secretary, which has
been held by George A. Reynolds of
Saginaw, Mich, for the past five
years Opposed to the present incum-
bent is Burt w. Lyon of ST. Louis.
At the drill contest, which opened at
the Coliseum this forenoon, Captain
Rumbold of Battery A, and Captains
Bruetgaman and Holtcamp of the First
Missouri Regiment acted as judges.
There were only two contestants, the
Toledo Cherry Pickers, commanded by
Captain w. H. Cooke, and the Louis
vile lodge team, commanded by Cap
tain John H. Leathers.
The Toledo drill team, composed of
thirty-two men, two guides and three
officers, marched into the arena first,
headed by Strobel's Band. They made
a good impression in their undress uni
forms of red flannel, white shoes and
blue caps White umbrellas were car
ried in lieu of guns. Most of their
movements were according to Upton's
tactics, and were performed with pre-
cision that brought forth much ap-
plause. After the drill was over it
seemed to be the general opinion that
the Toledo company was the more SOL
1ierly of the two. There were only
twenty -four men, two guides and three
officers in the Louisville drill team but
for all that they made fine appear
ance in their fatigue uniforms of white
flags. They wore caps of the same
color and carried white canes. This
team drilled by three" and their
movements were more fanciful than
those of their competitors. The judges
will probably make known their de-
cision this afternoon. The Grand Lodge
went into executive session to-day with
the intention Of transacting the busi-
ness before it and adjourning as soon
as possible.
The Grand Lodge, B. p. o. O., which
went into session behind closed doors
at 10 o'clock to-day, wound up the
business tonight by the election of the
following officers:
Grand Exalted Ruler, Hon. B. M. AL

Secretary Allen.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Acting
Secretary Allen to-day perfected his
plans for the drills of the naval militia
the result is announced in letters ad-
dressed to the Governors of the States.
The department has selected the
Badger for the Pacific militiamen. A
large part of the regular crew of the
ship will be detached and placed tenn
porarily on the receiving ship at Mare

bark the San Francisco division July

The Santa Cruz division will be en-
barked August 4th, the Santa Barbara
division August 9TH and the San Diego
division August 9th for similar period
of eight days The State is expected
to pay the expenses of feeding the men

lotment of the appropriation for equip
ping the naval militia will be based
upon the number of properly uniformed
petty officers and enlisted men of each
State who perform the annual tour of
duty One day of the eight will be al
lowed in port for organization and the
vessel must be at sea eight days. The
watch duties will be performed by the

ed in the routine duties of men-of-
warsmen and particularly in target
practice The naval militia of Oregon
will be embarked August Dist at Port
