ASIATIC STATION CHANGES

New York. March IA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
It is said that there has been some
friction between Rear Admiral Watson
and officers of his fleet. Commander
Il. d. Taussig was summarily detached
from the command of the Bennington
and ordered home for alleged criticism
of the chief, though 1t Is
said that Commander Taussig was not
insubordinate. There has also been
friction between the rear admiral and
the Bureau OF Navigation relative to
his chief of staff.
Rear Admiral Watson some months
ago desired Commander G. c. Cornwall
to act as his chief OF staff and assigned
him to duty but the department dis
approved his action. Only recently the
M. Thomas to command the Brooklyn.
Rear Admiral Watson transferred Cap
tain James w. Forsyth from the Bal
timore to the Brooklyn and II is said,
gave an explanation Of his action in
compliance with request made by the
department.
The bachelor officers of the feet have
also complained because the married
officers whose wives were in Manila
were allowed to remain on shore; with
out procuring permission from the
commanders n-chief, one or two nights
a week, while the order of the Rear
Admiral required the younger uhmar-
ried men to be on their ships after s
or 9 o'clock at night, and not to re-
main on shore without written permits
sion.
Rear Admiral Watson's health was
such that he was temporarily relieved
from command several months ago,
though the fact was not made public.
The Baltimore will probably return
home under the command Of Captain
G. +. +. Wilde, who now commands the
on the Asiatic station. Captain
Thomas will probably be transferred
to the Brooklyn and Captain Forsyth
to the Oregon. officers whose tours Of
duty at sea are about expiring will be
brought home in the Baltimore
These changes will not be determined
upon until Rear Admiral Remy reaches
Manila.
Rear Admiral Remy, successor to
Rear Admiral Watson was selected by
the department because of his ;well
known ability and particularly because
of his work at Key West during the
war with Spain. Though senior to
Rear Admiral Sampson he accepted
without protest the order of the de-
partment assigning him to command
the naval base at Kew West and plac-

Monza, Italy, July 31-King Humbert
was assassinated here yesterday. He
was shot by an anarchist named
Angelo Bressi at 10:45 and died at
1880. The assassin was Immediately
arrested and cynically avowed his
crime. He was with great difficulty
saved from the fury of the populace
which was wrought up to a terrible
frenzy of excitement over the BASTARD
ly crime. The murderer gave his name
as Angelo Bressi, describing himself
as of Prato, in Tuscany.
Ire king had been attending dis
tribution Of prizes in connection with
a gymnastic competition. He hHd
Just entered his carriage with his aide
de-camp amid the cheers of the crowd
when he was struck by three revolver
shots fired in quick succession. He fell
back and expired in a few minutes.
Rome, July 31.-The news Of the ter
rible event did not arrive here until
aftser midnight. Sig. Saracco, the

POWERS ON THE STAND.
Testifies in His Own Behalf At
Georgetown, Ky.

ueOE8elOStA, ny.
Georgetown, KY. Aug. 1. - Caleb
Powers took the stand in his own be-
half yesterday, but did not complete
his testimony on direct examination.
He will be on the stand all day to-
day. His defense is an admission
that he organized the body of noun
taineers who went to Frankfort on
several occasions last winter for In
formation with the state contest board
and the legislature, but not to intim-
ideate them. He entered a denial OF
the damaging charges made against
him by Witnesses Culton, Golden,
Noakes and others. On the stand he
denied that Henry Youtsey had keys
to his office on the day of the assas-
sination, but said there were two keys
to the office, one of which was in the
possession Of Former Assistant Sec
retary of State w. J. Davidson, and
another in possession of Ben Rowe,
Gov. Taylor's co!ored porter. Powers
says neither of the keys were ever in
his possession, and that he had his
own key in his pocket in Louisville
the day the assassination occurred.
Davidson is in the far West, supposed
to be in the State of Washington, and
Rowe, the colored porter, is some
where in Indiana, probably at Ander-
son.

RESULTED IN A FIAsCO.
Amnesty Celebration at Manila Was
Premature.

Amnesty Celebration at Manila Was
Premature.
Manila, July 31.-Editeed by the Cen
sor.-The two days fiesta in Manila,
organized by Senor Paterno and his
political followers to commemorate the
amnesty, resulted in a fiasco. Inc
people were passive and unenthusias-
tic. Failing to perceive any tangible,
effective results Of amnesty they say
they can see no reasons for celebra-
ting
Judge Taft and his colleagues of the
commission felt constrained to decline
to attend the banquet as they had
been informed that the speeches woulo
favor independence, under American
protection, and they could not passive
~ lend their acquiescence by being
present. Senior Palermo, foreseeing the
suspension of the banquet without the
Americans, frantically appealed to
them to attend, promising that there
should be no speeches.
The provost precautions were ex-
treme. The guards were doubled both
days and the authorities forbade the
display of Filipino flags and of pic
lures Of President Mckinley and
Aguinaldo fraternally framed. The
fiesta is generally considered to have
been premature and unfortunate.
During last weeks scouting ten
Americans were killed and fourteen
wounded. One hundred and eighty
Filipinos " ere killed and sixty taken
prisoners. Forty insurgent rifles were
captured.

MYSTERIOUS DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
Two Prominent Citizens of Waco
Tex, Found Dead.

Two Prominent Citizens of Waco,
Tex, Found Dead.
Waco, Tex, Aug. IA mysterious
double tragedy occurred at an early
hour yesterday at the residence of
M. c. Kingsbury, one of Waco's most
prominent citizens. The dead bodies
of Duncan G. McLennan, Jr., and
Myron c. Kingsbury, brothers-in-law,
were found in a room, their throats
cut from ear to ear. The fact that
neither body was injured or bruised
except the throat indicate that no
struggle took place, and it is the gen.
eral opinion that the two men were
murdered. Mrs. Kingsbury, wife of
one Of the dead men, made the follow
ing statement: about o'clock, I
think it was, was suddenly awak-
ened by some kind of noise emanatipg
from my husbands room across the
hall. sprang up and ran into the
room. Before me lay my husband,
who had just drawn his last breath,
and Duncan, my brother, only drew
one or two breaths after entered the
room. I saw no one run from the
room and cannot solve the mystery"
The police are at work on the case.

Twelve Rounds of Fighting Was All
O'Brien Cared For.
New York, Aug. 1.-George McFad-
den, the local lightweight boxer, ad-
ministered severe drubbing to Jack
O'Brien, formerly of Halifax, but now
a resident of this city, before the
Twentieth Century club at Madison
Square Garden. The pair met for
twenty -fve-round go at the light
weight limit, 1873 pounds, but there was
only twelve rounds of fighting. O'Brien
was so badly punished in the twelfth
round that he was forced to give up
when the bell rang for the thirteenth,
and instead of putting his hands up
for attack or defense, he extended his
gloved hand to McFaddeen, giving the
latter the bout. In the early stages of
the fight O'Brien did fairly well, and
with his rushing tactics kept McFad-
den blocking on the defensive.

Cape Town, Aug. 1.-Gen. Prinsloo,
with 5000 men, has surrendered uncon-
ditionally to the British, The Harri-
smith and Vrede commanders are yet
at large, as we'll as some Beers who
got out Of the valley at night, but the
prisoners say that those outside will
surrender and that it will practically
end the Free State army. The Beers
say they would not have surrendered
had they not been surrounded. The
prisoners have been placed in laager
under guard, and will be kept there
until all arrive.
London, July 81 Adispatch from
Gen. Roberts, dated July 20, confirms
the surrender of Prinsloo with 5000
Beers.
Before the Surrender.
A previous dispatch from Lord Rob-
erts tells the preliminaries of the sur
render, as follows:
ION July 26 Macdonald fought rear
guard action with the enemy from
early morning until dark, nine miles
outside of Naauwpoort, in the Bethle-
hem hills, resulting in his effectually
blocking Naauwpoort Mex to the
Boer wagons.
Hunter reports that the enemy
twice checked his advance by holding
strong positions on two neks, one or
which was taken before dark by the
Scots, the Royal Irish, the Wiltshire
and the Leinster regiments. Our cas-
ualties were only five or six. The sec
ond mex was taken during the fight
by the Scots and Guards without Op-
position, the enemy retiring closely to
Naaupoort.
"Prisoners taken stated that 200
burghers would surrender If guaran-
teed that they would be treated as
prisoners of war and not as rebels To
this I had assenteed. AS a result of
ing the Beers, asked,
Under n Flag of Truce
this morning, a four days armistice
for peace negotiations. Hunter replied
the only terms he could accept were
unconditional surrender, and until
these were complied with, hostilties
could not cease. 1 expressed my ap-
proval and told Hunter on no account
to enter into negotiations.
Gas I am writing a telegram has
come from Hunter saying that Prins-
loo had written a second letter eX-
pressing his willingness to hand over
himself, with his men, rifles, ammunf-
tion and other firearms upon condition
that the horses, saddles, brides and
other possessions of the burghers be
guaranteed them and they be free to
return to their homes. I have replied
that the surrender must be absolutely
unconditional, that all rifles, ammuni-
tion, horses and other possessions
must be given up, and that the burgh-
ers will be considered prisoners OF
war. I added that Prinsloo's over
lures will not be allowed in any way
to interfere with Hunters operations,
which must be continued until the
enemy is defeated or has surrendered" !"
London, July 31.-The Morning Lead
er asserts that Lord Kitchener has
been dispatched from Pretoria to
Krugersdorp to organize a column to
relieve Gen. Baden-Powell, now be-
sieged by Gen. Delarry at Rustenberg,
in Western Transvaal.
