FORTUNE IN PEARLS.
Great Rush to The Clam Beds in

sVETCE OF EtHrIN.
LA CROSSE, Wis, July 1S.-(Special)-
There is great excitement in this section
over clam digging for pearls. The Alien
pearl found at Prairie du Chene weighs
100 grains, and was purchased for So, Co.,
And q representative of a Paris house
who has been looking over the situa-

the rage in Paris. There is a great de-

to the upper river beds, which covers

A PEACE PLATFORM.
Former Member of AguinaldO's Cab
met DevOting HIS Influence
to End the War,

Manila, May 12.-Senor Buencamino,
at one time member of the so-called
Filipino republican cabinet, who was
recently liberated by Gen. Otis, an
nounces that he has become reconciled
to American sovereignty, and that he
will devote his influence to bring about
peace. He has sent proposed peace
platform for the national Filipino
party to the insurgent leaders in Ma
Mia and to the insurgent generals, in
Guiding Aguinaldo, in the field.
This platform declares that it is impossi-
BILE for the Filipinos to exist as a nation
without the protection of the United
States, and that, consequently, they must
recognize American sovereignty and strive
to attain, under a constitution, the ut
most liberty possible. Continuing, Senior
Buencamino argues that the Filipinos are
incapable of self-government. He says:
I'm our Independent government the most
predominant notes were abuses and i'm
moralities, the offspring of ignorance and
the inherited vices Of Spain, by which the
Filipino regime was rendered odous to our
own people," Therefore, he contends,
American control is necessary to prevent
civil strife. He recommends to the ma
tional Filipino party the adoption of
pIOSIdllllIS elllDOuSlH5 Jte lOIO"lIg lea
lures:
First. Recognition of the sovereignty of
the United States, the cessation Of HOSTILE
ties and cooperation of the present Fill
pinOs in the prosecution Of bandits who
continue depredations in the name of in
dependence
Second. A request for declaration by
the United States government guaranteeing
to the Filipinos personal liberties and
rights under a constitution.
Third. \ Filipino representative dele
cation to present to the American con-
gress and public the desires of the Fill
pinOs respecting political status.
Fourth The application of part of the
public funds for the maintenance Of hOspi-
tails for sick and wounded Filipino soldiers
and for the establishment of schools.
Fifth. The transfer of the insurgent
funds to the American treasury.
sixth. The establishment of a perma-
nent system of Filipino representatives to
the civil commission.
Seventh. The exclusion of friars from
the administration of the parishes"

IRRESISTIBLE SHELL
Said to have Been Invented by
One of Our Soldiers.
Special 20 The HERALD.

Washington, May 9.--Some facts al
most startling in their importance was
laid before the senate yesterday in Sc
cret legislative session at the conclu-
sion Of the regular open session. They
related, it is understood, to the inyen-
ton of shell by a prominent officer of
the United States navy, shell su-
perior in every essential quality to
any now in use either by this or by any
other government. The quality of pene-
tration possessed by the shell is said to
be so great that no armor now manu-
featured In the United States
or abroad has sufficient resist
ance to withstand it. The facts, which
were in possession of only few SEN
ators, We're deemed so important that
the senate decided to consider them in
secret session.
Tnlman Got No Information.
Yesterday after the naval bill had
been laid aside for the day Tillman
asked for a secret session in order that
he might explain to the senate why he
desired the armor plate matter to be
discussed in secret. When the doors
were closed he explained that several
days ago he had offered a resolution
calling upon the secretary Of the navy
to send 10 the senate for its infOrma-
tiOn the details of tests made by the
departments officials of armor plate at
Indian Head. No answer to that in
Quiry has been received and in all
human probability none will be re-
ceived.
Reason Why 1t Was Refused.
Tillman called at the navy depart
meut and was informed that it would
he UnwiSe at this time to make public
the details of the test he had asked
for, as it would place in the hands not
only Of the senate but of representa-
tives Of foreign governments infOrma-
ton that properly belonged exclusive
ly to the United States. He was in
formed that Admiral O'Neil, chief of
the bureau Of ordnance, had been con-
ducting for several months series of
armOr tests at Indian Head, the results
of which were very remarkable. A
prominent official of the navy depart
ment said it is understood that the tests
Of all sorts of armor, including the
Krupp armor, had been made with a
view of ascertaining their effective
ness against a new shell that had been
invented by an otncer OF the navy.
No Armor Could Stand 1t.
No piece Of armor submitted to the
test, 1t is understood, was able to with
stand the test. The shell, fired from
high-pOwer guns, penetrated the armor
almost as bullets fired from a Krag-
JCrgensen rifle would penetrate green
wood, the difference being that the
armOr plates split from the point of
impact. 1t is said this was true of the
Krupp armOr as well as of the other
armOr tested. The argument of Till
man is that with such a prOjectile in
the possession of the government it
would not be the part of wisdom for
the congress to enter into contracts TO
purchase the high-priced armOr unless
it could be so improved as to resist pro-
jectiles Of the kind used ut Indian

Cabinet Says Uncle sam Is Responsible
Accused To BE ENtradited.
Washington, May 9.-The only mat
ter of interest which came before yes
terday's cabinet meeting was the al
legged heavy shortage in the accounts
of Charles +. Nicely, formerly treasurer
of the pOStOttice department Of Cuba.
Nicely has been arrested in Rochester,
n. y, and the question arose as to
whether the United States or Cuba
was responsible for the amount of de-
falcatiOn. 1t seemed to be the opinion
Of all the members present that as
Nicely was appointed by the United
States and that in administering the
Affairs Of the island this government
is acting, in Il sense. as Il trustee, it
therefore, is responsible for the short
age, and can proceed againt Neelys
bOndSmen for the amount involved.
1t was practically settled, too, that Nee
~ would be taken back TO Havana.
The puStOtlice department has a re
port from Agents SeybOlt AMI Neal as
TO the amount of postal revenues in
the hands Of Charles +. W. Nicely,
chief Of the bureau Of finance for the
postal department in CuDa, April %.
At that time, according 10 these re.
ports, lie apparently accounted for all
SUMS due the government, and it is
said 10y pO>tUficr department officials
that if Nicely cmbeZZIed postal funds
he must have jU"glud the figures and
made false entries or else taken the
money Immediately after the balance
was struck. He is now charged with
being $3G,OOO short.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Heath denies emphatically that he is
Interested directly or indirectly with
Nicely in his printing business. He also
says: Mr.. Nicely was an appOintee
of Director Of Posts RathbOne, and
RathbOne is an appOintee Of the post
raster general ana the president. He
comes from Ohio. and, as | am in
formed. is a friend Of the president
II Nicely has done work for the gov
eminent and has been Oyerpaid for it,
or If he is wrong in his accounts. it is
the concern of Director RathbOne and
the auditors Of the war department
He might have stolen the whole island
and we know nothing Of it here. 1t is
true that Mr.. Nicely was an old friend
Of mine. We came from the same town
and had known each other for a long
time. But 1t was not my appointment
which put him in the Cuban service.
He was taken down there by Mr.. Rath-
bone along with a number of clerks
from the department.

A SUGGESTION OF WAR.

Washington, May 12.-No disposition
has been made as yet of the naval APP
preparation bill by the senate, but
after an all-day discussion an agree
ment was reached to vote on the armor
plate section at three o'clock this
afternoon. During Fridays discussion
a notable speech was delivered by Sem
ator Lodge (Mass.) upon the necessity
of building up the United States navy
without delay. The speech was deliy-

Characteristic of Senator Lodges dis

MY reasons for desiring more ships"
said he, land desiring them quickly, is
my belief that the safety of the United
States depends upon the strength of our
navy. We do not need the navy for the
protection of our insular possessions. The
Danger lies in our great coast line, and in
the defense of the Monroe doctrine in this
hemisphere"

the navy of the United States was superior
to that of Germany.
