LOVE AFFAIR THE CAUSE
Engaged to Daughter Of
 James J. Van Alen.
Latter Had Persistently Opposed the Match-The Despondent Lover Shoots Himself in a We'll
 Known Newport Club.

Newport. R. l., Aug. 1S.-Disappoint- ment over a broken matrimonial engage ment is believed to have been the cause of the suicide here today of Robert Read ing Remington of New York.
 MT. Remington came over to the club house from his rooms at the La Farge Cottage about l o'clock this afternoon and. after reading the papers for some times, went to the committee rooms or the second floor.
 An hour and a half later two muffied reports were heard. but those in the building paid no attention to them. La ter MT. Remington's body was found by room. Remington evidently had been dead for some time. A local undertaken took charge of the body.
 MT. Remington was well known among the summer residents in this city, and had been closely identified with the so- cial world here for the last seven or eight years. His engagement to Miss May Van Allen, daughter of James Van Alen and granddaughter of Mrs. William As tor. had been discussed for some months
 Engagement Existed.
 At first it was denied and then af- hrmed. It is generally believed there was a definite engagement. which. however was broken some three weeks ago. It is said that MT. Van Allen was greatly op- posed to the engagement from the begin ming.
 Since then, Mir. Remington has been Respondent. although when asked about the engagement he steadily affirmed that he was to be married in the fall He left the city about a week ago. breaking up his domestic arrangements here and sending away all his effects. Last Thurs day, however, he suddenly returned tc Newport. He had frequented the read ing room of the leading club of Newport and seemed to desire to be left alone.
 When the body. was discovered, blood was coming from the mouth and re- volver was found by the dead mans side. A physician found that three shots had been fired from the revolver and an ex- animation of the head showed that all had taken effect.
 Mir Remington was 35 years old and a member of the firm of Remington Broth CTS of New York. He had always been known as a man of very quiet tastes.
 His death has caused tremendous sensation.
 The body will be taken to Pittsburg, the former home of the Remingtons.

CHArfEE GIVEN POWER

 Philippines.
Party of Ladrones slay Four Mem bers of Constabulary, But are Repulsed-Details of Mutiny
 on Native Steamer.

Washington, Aug. 1s.-A cable dispatch was received today from General Chaffee stating in his judgment an active cam paign against the Moros in Mindiano was necessary in order to curb the opposition that has been growing against United States authorities. The dispatch was considered of sufficient importance to be repeated to President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay.
 General Chaffee has been directed to use his own discretion in the matter and will no doubt engage in an aggressive move ment against the Moros. Some time be- fore Secretary Root left Washington the Moro situation was under consideration and from a dispatch then at hand the Sec retary was of the opinion that the Moros must be dealt with severely before they would respect the authority of the United States. General Chaffee is now in Min dieno.
 If the campaign should continue for some time. he no doubt will remain in the Philippines instead of leaving Sep- tember 30 as he had planned. 1t is un- derstood that General Chaffee has suf- ficient troops to make an active cam <saign.

NO HOME FOR KNIGHTS.
Pythians Turn Down the Hot Springs
 Proposition.

San Francisco Aug. 1S-At the session of the Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Pythias today. the proposition to erect a sanitarium at Hot Springs Ark, for sick and disabled Knights was defeated and the report of the special investig lting committe. adopted at the last session was disregarded.
 It was the voice of the Supreme Lodge that it has no rights under its constitu- ton to tax the members of the order for such a purpose. The sanitarium project has been before the Supreme Lodge for twelve years but at each previous session it was referred to committees until two years ago when a special committee was appointed to make final report on the matter.
 The government offered to give a lease of five acres of land to the Pythians for a period of ninety-nine years for the pur- pose of building the ssnitsrium. It was proposed to erect buildings at a cost of 250.0oo, the expense to be borne by a per capita tax of 10 cents on each member of the order.

SCHWAB WILL RETIRE
PRESIDENT OF STEEL TRUST IN
 BAD HEALTH,
Has Been Directed by His Physicians to Rid His Mind of All Busi- ness Cares and Will Follow
 Their Advice.

Ffttsburg, Pa, Aug. 1S.-A Loretto (Pa.) special to The Pittsburg Dispatch says: Charles M Schwab. of the United States Steel corpora ton, has accepted the advice of his physicians and decided to retire indefinitely from active business.
 He will leave America to seek some quiet nook, after which he will seek a quiet life. This information is authen- tic.
 pr. Golden never leaves the Schwab home and the exact nature of his pa- tient's illness cannot be learned through him.
 Mir. Schwab Is not confined to his bed, but spends much of his time on the wide veranda, which affords fresh air and a sweeping view of the mountain slope He is always with his wife or his parents.
 The strange part of Schwabs illness Is that he Is always within view of those who call at his house. yet he will not allow any person to approach him. Here tofore the visitors to the Schwab home were greeted with a hearty welcome and a vigorous handshake. Now the visitor Is met at the entrance and told that MT. Schwab cannot be seen.
 Intimate friends are given the same message and no one Is able to converse with him since he came back to his home.
 The correspondent then says:
 The people of this town. who still call him Charlie. because of their early and intimate acquaintance with him. are dis cussing his prospective departure. They know he Is a sick man and are relieved that he will spend possibly a year in 'an effort to regain his health.
 '"The knowledge of the people of To- retto is only that MT. Schwab Is going away somewhere. His destination will be kept secret and he will do nothing, but seek health until his nerves have been restored to their normal condition and his mind fully relieved of the great strain resulting from so many business cares MT. Schwab has not been receiv- ing visitors for several days and seems to take little interest in what is going on about him. He has been directed by his doctors to rid his mind of all busi- ness cares and he Is obeying the orders religiously.
 Inquiry among the people of the town who have conversed with the Schwabs fully corroborated the stories that he in- tends to retire from active business life. His friends. however, deny that if he leaves the United States Steel corpora ion it will be at the dictation of any per son other than himself"
