PORTO RICAN FREE TRADE
The Necessary Resolution Adopted by
the Insular LEGISLATURE

Washington, July 6.-The state de-
partment has received by mail and by
cable from Governor Allen notice of the
action of the Porto Rican Legislature in
adopting the free trade resolution. By
mail came an advance copy Of the reso-
luton before it was acted upon, and the
cablegram received by acting Secretary
Hill informed him that the resolution,
as mailed, had been adopted.
One of the paragraphs in the resolu-
tons requests Governor Allen to pre-
sent them in person to President Nc
Kinley, and it is the understanding that
the governor will do this. The May
flower his station ship, which has been
on the Venezuelan coast for the past
month. looking after American interests
in that quarter, returned today to San
Juan, and she will convey the governor,
probaly accompanied by legislative
committee, to Hampton Roads whence
they will come to Washington and ex-
ecute their mission.
The approaching return Of Governor
Allen to the United States has had the
effect Of reviving the old rumor of his
intended resignation as governor of
Porto Rico. The officials with whom he
has had communication declare that he
has not notified them Of fresh inten-
ton to resign.

Germany and for the obseQuies are not
yet definitely determined upon. but IL
is expected that the remains will be
conveyed to the Hohenlohe ancestral
home. at Schillingsfuerst. Batavia,
where the family vault is situated and
where the body of Prince Won Hohen-
lohe's wife is inferred. IT is also ex-
pected that Chancellor Won Buelow will
break his seaside rest and attend the
funeral.
Although Emperor William has fixed
his departure on his trip to Norway for
Monday next. it is deemed likely that
his majesty will once more postpone
the date of his starting on his trip in
order to enable him TO attend the
obsequies. Owing to Emperor Will
liam's relationship to Prince Won Ho-
henlohe, his majesty always called the
Prince Uncle Chlodwig."

ARRIVED SAFELY AT CANTON
The President and Mrs. Mckinley at
Home

Canton, O., July 6.-The train bear
ing the presidential party arrived here
at 1915 o'clock this morning. Mrs. Nc
Kinley stood the journey very we'll.
Owing to Mrs. McKinley's illness
there was no formal demonstration at
the station upon the arrival of the
train, it being feared that the noise and
confusion incident upon such a recep-
ito would have an unfavorable effect
upon the patient. There was, however,
a very large crowd present that COM
pletely filled the station platform.
When the president and Mrs. McKin-
ley stepped from the train a hearty
cheer of welcome went up. The presi-
dents carriage arrived from Washing
ton several days ago and in it the chief
executive and Mrs. Mckinley were
driven to their old home.
1t was said by members of the pres
idents party that Mrs. Mckinley hao
stood the trip exceedingly we'll and that
her condition continued favorable.

PRINCESS HATzFELD,s SUIT
To Recover a Daughters Share OF the
Huntington Estate

San Francisco. July 6.-The Chronicle
says:
From sources thoroughly we'll inform
ed and entitled to credence, comes the
statement that Princess Hatzfeldt has
already begun legal proceedings, which,
though not technically a will contest,
amount, in reality, to an attempt TO set
aside, in part at least, the last testament
of her foster father, Coils P. Hunting
ton. Suit, it is declared, was started in
New York some months ago, by Prin-
cess Hatzfeldt for a daughters share of
the estate, based on the alleged contract
entered into by c. P. Huntington at the
time he took the princess, then Clara
Prentice, from her mother, the sister
of the first Mrs. Huntington, to support
and rear. The action said to have been
brought is simply suit to enforce a
contract. Filing of papers in the alleg-
ed suit was suppressed, 1T is said, pre-
sumably for service.
