MANILA EDITORS
TALK TOO FREELY
ARE ARRESTED UNDER SEDITioN
LAWS FOR SAYING WHAT THEY
THiNK-sTEPs TAKEN TO SEND
APPEAL TO ROOSEVELT.

Manila, April 10.-Excitement prevails
here on account of the arrest of the edi-
tor and proprietor of Freedom, local
publication, who is charged with sedi-
ton in publishing an article from an
American periodical to which the editor
of Freedom agreed. He also added re-
marks of his own condeming the United
States Commissions rule, and saying that
when 1t started in July last every paper
in the city upheld it, since which they
have all dropped by the waySide as they
would not support arbitrary government,
especially when evidence of carpet Dag
ging and rumors of graft were TOO
thick to be pleasant
The main charges made were that in
many cases the Filipino office-holders are
rascals and that the commission has ex-
alted to the highest positions the people
who are notoriously corrupt.
The editors of the Volcano have also
been arrested on a suit of the government
for demanding the removal of the Judge
who recently tried Senior Valdez, the ed
itor of a local Spanish paper who was
fined 400 pesetas for libelling two of the
postof1ce members of the commission,
and who is now trying the editor Of Free
dom under the sedition law.
These proceedings have aroused the en-
tire press of Manila and it's representa-
tives met today and resolved to send
q committee to the commission to argue
against the injustice of the proceedings.
The meeting also determined to send
cable message to President Roosevelt
,reinp him to take steps to prevent the
commission from using the sedition law
In such cases The meeting was also
largely attended by lawyers, doctors and
others.

SUBSIDY BILL TAKEN UP,
Whole Question Depends on Difference
In Cost of Building Ships.

Washington April 10.-The ship subsidy
bill recently passed by the Senate was
taken up today by the house committee
on merchant marine and fisheries Dennis
Clyde of the Clyde line of steamers said
the opponents of the bill should be
pinned down to these two points: First
is there a difference in cost of building
and operating American as against for
eign ships; second. If there Is such diff
ference what better way is there to over
come 1t. He said that the cost of build
ing and operating the American ship
was about 80 per cent above the foreign
cost. He thought the movement by capi-
talists under the leadership of Mr.. Nor
gan to buy up transatlantic lines, afford
ed an opportunity to have large amounts
invested in American yards and American
ships. The men in this movement. he
said, would require many ships and If
this country did not encourage the invest
ment, then 1t would go to foreign yards.
Erastus Brainerd, representing the Seat
tie chamber of commerce. set forth the
interest of the Pacific coast shipping peo-
pie in the bill A practical object les
son had been given at Seattle, he said.
where the subsidized Japanese line re-
ceived $474,00O for freights out of Seattle
in one year. This more than offset the
$4,000 subsidy Japan gave the line.

RHODES AT REST
IN MATOPPO HILL
BODY COMMITTED TO ITS FINAL
RESTING PLACE SHROUDED IN
A UNION JACK AND WREATH
SENT BY QUEEN ALEXANDRA.

Buluwayo, Matabeland, April 10-Amid
an immense throng Of soldiers, civilians
and natives, the body of Cecil Rhodes
was today committed to its rock tomb in
the Matoppo Hills. The coffin was shroud-
ed in a Union Jack, and the wreath sent
by Queen Alexandra was laid upon 1t as
1t was lowered into the grove
The funeral party started from Fuller's
Hotel early this morning The procession
was five miles long. as it wound through
the hills and gorges Every sort of con-
veyance was made use of. Some were on
foot, others were on horseback or on BIZ
cycles. while still others were in wagons
and carriages.
When the procession was a mile from
the grave, everybody dismounted and con-
cluded the journey on foot Twelve oxen
hauled the coffin to the almost inacces-
sible summit of the kopje, where the
Chiefs Shembli Faku and Umgula and
1000 natives had assembled to witness the
Christian interment rites which they aft
erward supplemented in their own fashion
by the sacrifice of fifteen oxen to the
shade of the great dead chief.
Thousands of white persons congreated
around the wind-swept hill The grave
was encircled by six boulders. The inter-
ment was extremely impressive. The
dead March echoed through the hills and
the natives stood like statues. Tears were
in the eyes of many of the onlookers.
The bishop of Mashonaland who conduct
ed the interment service said:
II consecrate this place forever. Here
he thought, here he lived and died or
the empire"

mules for nearly a year.
Major Moore who is at the head OF the
ten British officers here, when asked the

chases that are being made In the United

officer and has seen active service during
seyenteen months in South Africa He
said the British government does not buy
the horses and mules here but has sent
some of it's army officers and veterinary
surgeons here to inspect the horses and
treat them before they are sent to South
Africa, where they are sold to the Brit
ish government. There are $500 horses
and mules here now, and 200 head of cat

New York April 1O.-Ellen NJ. Stone,
the missionary who was captured by
brigands in Bulgaria and held for ran
som, arrived here today on the Deutsch-
land. She looked pale and worn and said
the sea voyage had made her very i'll.
She was met at the steamers pier by her
brother Charles A. Stone, and by many
other relatives and friends. Miss Stone
said the brigands were not so fierce as
might have been imagined. They said
many insulting things, but never struck

COLUMBUS HAS
$25O,OOO FIRE
Two Blocks Of the Georgia City
Now in Ruins

Columbus Ga, April 10.-About o'clock
tonight fire broke out in the plow shop
of the Southern Plow Works and by
II o'clock two whole blocks were in ashes
and another building, a warehouse, was
burning fercely.
The two blocks burned will amount in
damage to over 100000 and the damage
to the warehouse will run the amount
up to a quarter of a million.
By II 80 D. M the fire was under con-
troll.
The origin of the fire is unknown. The
flames were first discovered In a corner
of the plow shop. corner of Front and
Dillingham; streets and it spread rapidly
southwark. sweeping everything In the
plow companys shop and the machine
and forging departments of the Columbus
Iron Works which occupied the same
building, both taking up the entire block
down to Short street. When the fire
reached the middle of the plant a lot
of varnish, oils and other combustible
materials caught fire and aided the con-
flagration. The offices of the plow COM
pany and iron works were next destroy
ed and the fire leaped to the middle of
Ninth street, consuming the trestlework
of the Mobile and Girard railroad from
Front street to the river, a distance of
nearly two blocks This cut off the in
coming Mobile and Girard train and 1t
had to remain at Girard and make trans
fers.
From the bridge the fire caught the
south block which was occupied by the
iron works pattern shops wood working
plant, moulding shop. lumber yard and
boiler houses burning everything in the
plant down to Eighth street except the
new moulding house recently finished.
This was the only building left standing
in the two blocks. On the west side of
Front street from Eighth to Ninth
streets there were eight cottages burned,
valued at sS0O0 The Empire mills coop
er shop on the corner of this block was
burned also
About the time the fire was under con-
troll Freidlander's hide and junk shop,
a warehouse on the corner of Broad and
Dillingham; streets, caught ana before
the firemen could conquer 1t was de-
stroyed with it's contents. Hard work
and thick fire wall prevented the spread
to the Webster warehouse next door.
The destruction OF the Columbus Iron
Works and Southern Plow Company's s
plants will throw about 400 men out of
employment
The company was the largest concern
of its kind south Of Richmond. The plow
company made plows only. but the iron
works constructed ice machines, engines
boilers and transmission machinery. The
loss is the heaviest Columbus has suffer-
ed In many years.
An unknown negro about 30 years old
was instantly killed by a falling wall
on Short street and another was hurt
but not seriously. At late hour he had
not been identified.

LENTZ A VILIFIER.
House Committee Unanimously De-
cides Against the Ohioan.

Washington, April 10.-The report in
he contested election case of John J..
Lentz against Representative Tompkins
f Columbus, O., was filed today. 1t is
ut of the ordinary for the emphasis of
the language employed The report is
unanimous, both Democrats and Repub-
licans joining in it. 1t is says that many
f the charges of fraud by Mr. Lentz
were abandoned as they were evidently
rot intended to have any bearing on the
contest. but simply to place upon record
slurs, insinuations and charges against
outside persons.
Mr.. Tompkins' reply, the report says,
also contained much that was unJustlna-
Bile, and then Mr.. Lentz re5Ened in a still
more abusive and scurrilous manner. The
committee says such papers would be
suppressed in a court as scandalous and
impertinent, and 1t protests against max
ing these contests vehicles of abuse and
villification.''
