GROWING OF THE KINS.

the Middle . of AuEust-Ed-
wards Pvogress Is Good

London, July SKIING Edward
passed a favorable day, and the
verbal report given out is that his
majesty is still doing well. The use
by the prince of Wales of the word
recovery" when he referred to the
kings progress at the coronation of
the Raphael nurses home of Guys
hospital Monday afternoon is re-
garded in many quarters as indicat-
ing that the royal family considers
the kings case most hopefully.
King Edward will be crowned be-
tween August IL and August Is. His
recovery has been so rapid and salts
factory that the above decison was
arrived at Monday. No official an
nouncement of the fact has yet been
made. The pageant through the
streets and the ceremony at West
minister Abbey will be much curtailed
from the original plan. Their majes-
ties will drive from buckingham pal
ace to the abbey through the mall to
Whitehall and thence to the abbey, the
same route as taken at the opening of
parliament.
London, July SIN inaugurating
The Raphael nurses home of Guys
hospital, Monday afternoon, the
prince of Wales said all would join him
in expressing unbounded thanfulness
to God for the merciful recovery of
his dear father. They had all been
cheered and supported during the Sc
we're trial by the deep sympathy of the
whole empire and they who had
watched at the kings bedside realized
how much was due to the eminent sur
gical and medical skill and to the high
ly trained and patient nursing of the
king.
London, July s.-Queen Alexandra's
teas to 10000 domestic servants of
London commenced Monday. The lo-
cal mayors and officials presided at
the various gatherings, and many
prominent ladies' gave their assist
ance. Each one of the queens guests
received gifts from her majesty con-
sisting of box of chocolate and a
silver gilt brooch. The proceedings
were very enthusiastic.

FREEDOM FOR AGU1NALDo.
Filipino Leader Apparently Timid
About Appearing in Public
To Visit America.

Manila, July 7.-As a result of the
proclamation of amnesty, July 4, the
guard of American soldiers has been
withdrawn from the house where
Aguinaldo lived in Manila, and Lieut..
johnson, Aguinaldo's custodian,
brought the Filipino to see Gen. Chat
fee. II was the first meeting between
the American general and the leader
of the Filipino revolution. Lieut.. Will
liam +. McKinlay, of the Ninth cav
airy, acted as interpreter. Aguinaldo
was told he was free to go anywhere
he pleased, and Gen. Chaffee asked
him if he had any complaint to make
of American discourtesy or harshness.
Aguinaldo replied that he had no such
complaint to make. He told Gen. Chat
fee that he was going to visit friends
at his home in Cavite Viejo, in Cavite
province, and inquired what protec-
tion the American authorities would
afford him. He seemed to be afraid 10
venture out. Gen. Chaffee replied that
Aguinaldo would get the same protec-
tion as any other citizen. The for
mer Filipino leader then asked Gen.
Chaffee to prevent the courts from
requiring him to testify in civil suits.
Gen. Chaffee replied that he had no
authority to grant this request, and
advised Aguinaldo to make a social
call upon Acting Civil Gov. Wright.
Aguinaldo said he would do so, but
that he would go at night, as he was
timid about appearing on the streets
in daylight. The release of the for
mer Filipino leader has renewed spec
ulation as to possible vengeance upon
him by friends of Luna and his other
enemies. Luna was Filipino leader
whom Aguinaldo caused to be killed
in 1889.
Aguinaldo appears to be thorough
1y subdued. His health is poor. He
says ne does not fear the vengeance
of the friends of Gen. Luna. He pro-
poses to live quietly at Cavite until
he starts on a visit to the United
States. He desires to study the
American government and people.
Boston, July 7.-Aguinaldo a. is COM
ing to the United States, and his de-
parture from Manila for San Fran
cisco is expected at any time. He
will come direct to Boston to join his
former secretary, Sixto Lopez, and
will then start out on tour, deliver
ing a series of lectures on the condi-
tions existing in the islands and
make plea for the independence of
his countrymen. In this campaign,
as now planned, there will be no in
flammatory speeches nor fiery elo-
quence. \ simple, plain statement
of facts will be made, and people will
be left to draw their own deductions.
The news of Aguinaldo's intended
coming to the United States. came
out Sunday. just what Aguinaldo
and the anti-imperialists hope to ac-
complish at this time by the pro-
posed lectures none of the leaders
of the movement would say.

Washington. Jlue 25.--It has been
determined that no reciprocity treaty

present session of congress. 1t was at
frs planned that in the event Of the
failure Of the administration managers
in the senate to secure favorable ac-
ton on the Cuban sugar bill, treaty
would be drafted at once This was on
the understanding that Senor Quesada,
the Cuban minister here, had full pow
ers and that a treaty could be drawn IN
Washington entirely. 1t is stated now,
however, that this cannot be done and
that any draft of treaty must go to
Havana and be returned before it
can be submitted to the senate. This,
Of course, can not be accomplished in
the short space of time intervening be-

leaders that congress will adjourn by

BARROW TELLS WHY

YEAR AGO.
Former Little Rock Man Makes an
Earnest Plea for Pardon for
His Wife.

Middleton, N. Y, June 25.-In a
long letter to R. B. Hook, president of
the village of Goshen, George Bar
row, who is serving a sentence in
Dannemora prison for the kidnapin Z
of Marion Clark in Central park sew
eral years ago, tells why the child
was stolen. The letter was written
for the purpose of assisting his wife,
Addie McNally Barrow. in obtaining
a pardon from Auburn prison, where
she is paying the penalty for her
share in the crime.
Barrow says the object of the kid
naping was not to secure a ransom,
as his father, Judge j. C. Barrow, Of
Little Rock, Ark, is worth $150,O00,
and would have supplied him with
money had he been in need. The real
purpose in stealing the child, he de-
clares, was to put the police of New
York in hole" because of his failure
to get on the force in 1896.
Il had become a devoted admirer
of John McCullagh, of the state bu-
reau of elctions,' said Barrow. "and

crime could be committed. the police

COrbin' friends are considerably
wrought up over his unceremoniOus
discharge and intend to take up his
fight and attempt his reinstatement.
It is alleged by his friends that there
is wheel within a wheel; that the
reasons given out for his discharge
are only pretenses to blind the pub
lie in the matter. They claim to have
knowledge Of what they term is the
real cause Of Corbin's discharge, and
II is piOUdDl6 ludt luelI information

Prof. Corbin was seen this morning
by the Graphic and asked for a state
ment concerning his dismissal. He
refused to give any, other than to say
that he thought he had been unjustly
treated in the matter, and that NO
charges had been brought against
him. Further than this he had moth
ing to say.
1t is probable that the matter Will
be taken up by his friends with Gov
ernor Davis. and if it is some sensa-
tional information, it is said will be
given to the governor.
Prof. Corbin has been principal ct
the Branch Normal college for TWEEN
