WILL GET A ROUSING WELCOME.
Preparing for the Return of the
10th Pennsylvania.

A large and influential delegation from
Pittsburg visited the War Department this
morning and asked that arrangements be
made if possible to have the 10th Pennsyl-
vania Regiment, row on its way home from
the Philippines. brought 30 Pittsburg IN
body, so that the people could give them 4
rousing welcome The delegation included
Gov. Stone. Mayor Diehl of Pittsburg and
twenty-oHe citizens from the different
counties in which the regiment was re-
cruited. The plan of the War Department
is to muster out the regiment al San Fran
cisco. leaving the men to go home as in
dividuals. The delegation wanted TO have
the regiment mustered out at Pittsburg,
and said the citizens of Pennsylvania would
defray all additional expense. 1t WAS ex-
planned that this could not be done under
the law.
Adjt. Ger. Ccrbin Offered a suggestion
which vas accepted by the delegation IS
the best that could be done under the cir
cumstan aces. 1t was il effect that after the
troops are mustered out at San Francisco
their pay and allowances be withheld from
them until they are on the railroad trains
bound for home. 1t was hoped by this plan
t. keep the organiza tiCn together until its
arrival in Pittsburg, bu- many officers ex-
press considerable doubt on that point, us
after their discharge the men are free to
do as they please, and can leave the train
at any station on the route.

PRESIDENT sCHURMAN's INTENTIONS
No Advices Have neen Received ut the
State Department.

Secretary Hay said today that he had re-
ceived no notice from President Schurman
of the Philippine commiss ion of his ;nten-
ton to sail Immediately from Manila for
home. Nothing las been heard from Mr.
SchIrman at the State Department since
his return from the trip ne de TO the
principal islands of the Philippines south
of Luzon. 1t was fully expected by the
department that Mr. Schurman would re-
turn &c the United States in season to take
up his work as president of Cornell Unver-
sity at the beginning of the fall term and
it is believed that he undertook this vista
ton in order to be able to report person.
ally to the President the exact conditions
prevailing among these unknown groups Of
islands, up to the latest moment. There is
believed to be no reason why Mr.. Schur-
man should delay his departure from Ma
Mia until later in the summer, for the in
dications are that there will be no change
of moment in the political situation in the
Philippines before the next dry season., at
least. Even il there should be. and the in
surSents should cease the stubborn oppo-
sition which they are manifesting to the
assertion of American sovereignty, it is felt
that the remaining number of comr,ission-
ers on the ground-Gen Otis, Col. DENLY
and Prof. Worcester-can deal with any
Questions that may be incident to sur
render by the insurgents.

MRS. CRUMP GETS DIVORCE.
Appeal to be Taken by Counsel for
Her Husband

Justice Cole today announced that he had
decided to grant Mrs. Edith Allan Crump
a divorce from Frank H Crump on the
ground of cruel treatment The decree
will be signed later. Counsel for Mr.. Crump
will appeal from the decision to the Court
of Appeals.
The proceedings were instituted by Mrs.
Crump the Both of last June. They met
with bitter opposition on the part of Mr..
Crump. Owing To the prominence of the
parties and the vigor of contest the case
has attracted more than ordinary attention
and excited great interest.
Mrs. Crump IL daughter of Gen. Edgar
Allan, prominent attorney at-law OF this
city and of Richmond. who is at present
United States attorney for the eastern dis
trict of Virginia. His residence here is al
the northeast corner of 18th and P streets
Mr.. Crump was for a number of years
assistant auditor of the Southern Railway
Company.
In her petition Mrs. Crump set forth that
Mr.. Crump and herself were married in
Richmond, November IL 1886, and lived
together until May 81. 1895, when she was
driven by her husband from the house
where they were boarding. During almost
the entire period they lived together, &C.
cording to Mrs. Crump, her husband was
quarrelsome, irascible, domineering, petu-
lent, exacting, abusive and cruel in his
treatmen of and conduct toward her
In his answer Mr. Crump declared that
he did not drive his wife from home but
on the contrary. she deserted him without
provocatfon. The petitioner, he added, was
fretful on account of illness. which was
partly real and partly imaginary; that she
neglected the children and compelled him
to perform toward the little ones the ordi-
nary offices that belong to wife. He de-
MED that he ever was quarrelsome abusive
or cruel, but. the contrary never as
much as even touched his wife with violent
hands nor did ever treat her with indiffer-
ence, disrespect or contempt.

ExTRADITION OF MRS. RICH
Agent Sexton Recommends Her Surrender
to Mexico.
Important International Questions
bles That of Mrs. May5rick.

Ell PASO. Tex. July e-Extradition
Agent Sexton has rendered a decision in the
case of Mrs. John ID. Rich. alleged TO have
murdered her husband in Juarez. Mexico,
recommending that she be given into the
CUSTODY or the Mexican authorities. The
case Is complicated. II being alleged that
the woman shot her husband in Mexico
ara that he died later in q hospital here.
The extradftion proceedings against Mrs.
ftlch were fnaugurated here by an applica-
ton by the Mexican amba ssador Senior
Azpiroz. to the State Department for her
surrender to the Mexican authorities The
proceedings at Ell Paso were for the DUR
pose OF bringing out the facts of the case,
and although the decision now rendered cs-
tabiishes prima facie case In favor OF
Mexico's contention, yet the new extradi-
ton treaty gives to the President Giscre-
ton In guaranteeing an accused person to a
foreign government. The papers Will now
be forwarded to the State Department for
final review. and a sharp contest is cx-
pected owing to the peculiar features of
the case.
In its personal aspect 1T resembles the
Maybrick case. as 1t involves the charge
that an American woman killed her hus-
pand In foreign country. This is COM
pllcated by the fact that the husband died
on the American side Of the border. which
mas raised question as to whether the
crime was in Mexico or in the United
States.
Some important internal questions are
also involved in the case. One of these is
the extradftion of Americans for trial in
foreign countries. While there would be
no question as to the extradition of a Mex
lean found in the United States and accused
of crime, yet 1t is almost without precedent
that a nattve-born citizen is the subject of
extraditfon from his own country The
principle Is new to international law and
mas never been recognized until the re-
Gently made extradition treaties with Japau
and Mexico. While these treaties recognize
the right. yet the exercise of the right has
never before arisen, and the decision in the
case OF Mrs. Rich will be a precedent on
that point.
1t will be the first case also under the
Mexican treaty, and is looked upon as
rather test of that instrument The off,
Gals here recognize that there must be
more or less comfy in extradition, partic-
ularly between Mexico and this country.
owing to the ready means of escape which
the border gives to wrong-doers That and
the desire to protect Americans from being
subjected to harsh and unusual methods of
tr1al abroad make the Rich case one of UNI
usual interest and Importance to officials

HAVANA, July 1.-TWO cases of yellow

the patients is an old Spanish woman, who
has been in Cuba for two years, and with
her the disease is in a mild form The
other case is that of an American, whose
symptoms are still doubtful. although it Is

quented by Americans. Surgeon Major Da-
Wis does not believe there is much danger
that the disease will spread. He says that
at this time of the year there are always
few cases of the fever.
Every effort will be made to prevent it's
increase. Gen. Ludlow is satisfied that 1t
is impossible as yet to keep yellow fever
out of Havana, and especially such districts
as that at the southern end of Officios
street.
The health of the troops is remarkably
good, and makes a better showing than at
ordinary posts in the United States,

PRESIDENT MckISIEY,S PLANS
Representative Hay Snys His Method
of Raising Troops Unauthorized

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
RICHMOND. Va, July 6-Representatiye
james Hay of the seventh congressional
district, Who. as a member Of the House
&C mmittee on military affairs, distinguished
himself during mis- first session in Congress,
In an interview today criticised strongly
President McKinley's method of raisine.
$4,000 additional troops When the bill was
passed, said he, 1t was contemplated that
these volunteers should be Differed by vol
unteer officers; that troops should be raised
as heretofore. the governors of the several
states being expected to furnish their re-
spective quotas of Differed regiments or
companies.
No one dreamed" said Mr.. Hay. that
the administration would seek to enlist SOL
dters by a different method. by putting reg
ular army officers over these men. To do
so is nothing short of usurpa ton of power
Under the Presidents plan these soldiers
would not be volunteers They would really
be regular soldiers The President has alb
soluteiy no authority to carry out his al
legged plan Should he attempt TO do so [
am sure Congress will take some notice of
the utter disregard of the spirit of the law.
l would not be surprised il We should be
asked TO raise our army to 20O.OU0."
When asked what he thought would be
the issue in the next presidential campaign
Mr.. Hay said he thought ". j. Bryan
should first be relieved of his military title:
that it is not wise for his friends to under
take to magnify his military services. While
he was and is in favor of free silver at a
Ii to l ratio, there are other live questions
that must be dealt with. The extravaganza
of the present administration should be one
OF these issues, and also territorial eX-
panSion- What we shall do with cur new
possessions should be solved by the demo-
Gratis, who should map out a policy that
will save the country from the financial
extravaganza the republicans are following.

COLUMBUS. Ohio. July 6.-AIlen W.
Thurman has prepared resolutions to be
presented to the state convention of demo
cratic clubs, which meets here this after
noon, and which will probably be adopted
with few changes. They iRdorse the Chi
cago platform of 1896. and declare that
Bryan is not only the logical candidate for
1909. but actually the peoples choice They
urge gradual and judicious requirement of
public utilities by municipalities, declare
against Imperialism and the attempt 10

eminent: that war for conquest is criminal
aggre Ssion, and demand that trusts be sup

If John r. Mclean is really a candidate
for place on the ticket in 1900, as is gen.
orally believed here, there may be oppOsi-
ti0n 70 the Bryan resolution. though he
could hardly hope to make a successful
fight against it, The committee on ar
engagements has decided that TO Ohio man
shall be placed on the banquet program
This permits Thurman, who has been
chosen as POSTMASTER TO make the only
speech from Ohio. This looks as though
the Bryan element is in control of the con-
ventiOn and banquet.
MIR Bryan will not arrive until noon to-
morrow H II. MCFadden of Steubenville
