HARD LINES FOR GAMBLERS.
King Edward Denounces Them and
League IL After Them.

A dispatch to the New York Herald from
London says: King Edward has vented
some outspoken denunciation Of gambling
whicn is likely to do more to remedy this
national disease than volumes Of sermons
OF prohibitive legislation.
An effort is quietly afoot to cleanse Hur-
lingham Of growing propensity to make
shooting subsidiary to gambling on the re-
suits. Similar efforts are hinted at in con-
nectiOn with other fashionable sporting
meets. where the eagerness to offer and
accept wagers has occasionally resulted in
more or less covert insanuations about the
remarkable luck OF certain "sports' In
picking out the winners.
Ocean steamer gambling, too, is likely to
encounter bitter opposition on tho part Of
the League to Suppress Ocean Gambling,
whose secretary, James Wilson OF New
York. Is meeting gratifying support among
the London steamship authorities can
vassed this week. The professional card
sharpers however. sneer at the attempt to
suppress them. They say they buy their
tickets the same as other passengers. and
II they want TO indulge in a quiet little
game Of poker nobody aboard has the pow
or to prevent them.

IN REMINISCENT MOOD
MIR. JOHN w. HUTCHINSON RECALLS
OLD-TIME INCIDENTS.
The Last Survivor of q Family OF
Sfngers-Hfs Former Visits
to Warrington.

Mr.. John W. Hutchinson, the last sur
viving member of the famous Hutchinson
family, in which there were sixteen chill
dren. all OF whom had a worldwide fame
half century ago. and for the greater
part Of thirty years following, is now
visiting Washington for what he expects
to be the last time. he having reached
a very advanced age. To a Star reporter
Mr.. Hutchinson related some "reminiscences
of former visits made by him to the ma
tional capital and OF noted men he was
acquainted with, but all of whom have
passed away.
MY first visit to Washington" said Mr..
Hutchinson, was to attend the Inaugural
tton of President Lincoln. IN company
with friend. ! arrived here the morning
OF March 4. Inauguration day. The word
was soon passed around that General
Scott had placed his forces on many of

CABLES MAKES HIS ESCAPE.
InSurgent Commander Who offered
Reward for American Heads.

MANILA, April 29.-Capt. Wilson Chase
with detachment of the 21st Infantry, on
April 90 surprised the camp of the insur-
gent general, Cailles, at Dugot-Dugot. nine
miles northeast of Cavinti, province of La
guua- Cailles at his camp at the
time, but managed to escape. Capt Chase's
force captured his adjutant general five
others of his staff officers. fourteen men.
twenty rifles, a large amount of ammuni-
ton and stores, and all the papers and
personal effects of the Filipino general.
The insurgent. Major Velo. was killed
during the engagement, as were Corporal
McGill and Private Tipps. both belonging
to Company of the 21st Infantry. Sew
eral columns of the American troops con-
tinue vigorously to pursue General Cailles.
General Cailles recently offered a reward
OF $4,000 for the head Of Captain Edward
y. Jones, 1r., Sth Infantry.
For more than year past Cailles has
commanded the insurgent forces operating
to the east of Bay Lake, not far from
Manila He Is said to be a French half
caste. He has a reputation for vindictive-
ness and cruelty, and Is one OF the two or
three Filipino leaders still in the field who
have clearly ignored the observances OF
honorable warfare. The Society Of Mando-
Ducats, whose practice it was to assassinate
or bury alive those of their countrymen
who accepted American sovereignty when
ever the latter fell into their hands, oper-
ated with the cognizance. X not the sup
port, of General Cailles. If Cailies were
captured 1t Is doubtful II he could claim
immunity for past actions under the terms
of the amnesty. In January OF this year
Cailles offered reward Of $40 apiece for
the heads Of all Americans brought to
him.
A dispatch from Nueva Caceres, province
of South Camarines, Luzon, dated April
%, says: This turbulent region is now
nearly pacified. The Philippine commission
has travelled twenty miles by river to this
point, having established provincial gov
ernment for North Camarines and South
Camarines. The commissioners have been
greeted with banners inscribed with Long

We heard Douglass story and the result
was an earnest desire to aid him in his
work 1t was not long before we Joined
him in many meetings, he telling his story.
while we emphasized 1t with song"
Mr.. Hutchinson recalled with evident
signs of pleasure the incidents of trip
made by the members Of the Hutchinson
family with Frederick Douglass and James
N. Buffune. an anti-slavery sympathizer,
to England during the summer of 1915.
For the crime of color" continued Mr.
Hutchinson, Frederick Douglass was fore
ed to take passage in the steerage where
Mr.. Buffune accompanied him. 1t was only
by sufferance that Douglass was allowed
to come on the promenade deck, and then
he had no freedom except when with
friend. We frequently invited him to walk
with us, when he freely expressed to us
his feelings and sentiments on the subject
of slavery, and among other things said
he would rather trust his liberties with
the English government than with the
American rabble.
1.-The curious Of both nationalities were in
terested in him, and after reading his little
Narrative which we took pains to circu-
late among the passengers, the desire TO
hear him speak was expressed. We OBJ

him an audience on the forward deck Most

brother began He at first stood under the
awning. but / persuaded him to come into
the open. by the mainmast. where he
read from a pamphlet containing the
statutes Of South Carolina on the subject
Of slavery. We soon saw that the reading
was not relished by some of the auditors. as
preparing to resent what they claimed was
an insult to them. They soon SO disturbed
the speaker that he was forced to suspend,
and with a sentence half finished he re-
treated under the awning. and thence down
the stairs to the steerage, his only hiding
place. where he was sheltered from the
wrath Of those Americans whose 'chivalry'
was SO much shocked. Then followed
threats OF killing and throwing the mig
ger overheard. and for a few minutes
anarchy ruled and the war spirit was ram
