Years ago, before she became the wife

with Count Escosura. The young couple
plighted their troth. and the girl, who at

marry him.
Later on, for state reasons, she was
compelled to marry Alfonso's father, and
was separated from her sweetheart.
The old love was revived on the recent
Austrian trip, and a secret marriage 1ol'

did not feel confident of restoring the
graves to their former appearance.
The detectives say the negroes were
armed with shotguns, and equipped with
horses and wagons. The bodies were sold
to different colleges which opened their
winter terms last week. The detectives
say that complete investigation will
show that even the graves in Crown

General Alger said yesterday that the
tender of the Office by Governor Bliss
was wholly unexpected. but he should
accept it. When asked how he stood on
public questions. the General said he had
decided views on tariff and Cuban recipro-

declined to say whether he would be
for or against the administration on beet

PERSHING TO TRY AGAIN.
Hopes That Macius Will See Folly of
Further Resistance.


MANILA. September 29.-Brigadier
General Samuel S. Sumner, in reporting
to General Chaffee, the departure of the
second Maciu expedition. telegraphs that
he hopes that the strength of Captain
Pershing's column, will show the Maciu
sultans the folly of further opposition.
General Sumner sent the sultans let
ter by Captain Pershing. warning them
against shooting Americans, and advising
them to be friendly The General also
directed Captain Pershins not to attack
the natives or destroy property, unless
the sutans insist on being hostile.
General Sumner says it is wrong to call
the operations a war, as there is no gen
eral uprising. and it is not likely that
there will be one. The Sultan of Mara
pin, whom General Sumner describes as
the most intelligent leader he knows.
visited Camp Vckars Saturday, prom
ised to remain peaceful and volunteered
to visit the Moros north Of the lake and
tell them of the utility of fighting against
so many having guns. The Sultan of
Ari has fled to the Butig mountains. Cen
eral Sumner expects to capture this sui
tan.
General Chaffee has now decided to
leave here for San Francisco October I'd,

CALL 1T AN ENGLISH VICTORY.
Settlement of Tobacco War P1eases
the London Papers.

S LONDON, September 29.-The newspa-
pers consider the settlement of the to-
bacco war a victory for English business
methods against the American trust.
The Standard says that the American
Tobacco Company has been worsted at
the tactical game it began. It's aim was
the destruction of the tobacco manufac-
turing industry of England. Doubtless
now it has acted wisely in abandoning
the assault.
Some other American trust which may
contemplate extending their operations
into England are not likely to have any
better fortune than the tobacco company.
Now that the British combination is re-
iieyed OF the cost of war 1t may be hoped
that it will devote its attention to improv-
ing the quality of the tobacco sold, which
has rapidly deteriorated in recent years.
