NO PLAGUE IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Medical Men There Agreed That None
Now Exists.

San Francisco Feb. 9-Regardless of
all the controversies that have existed
as to whether there were cases of bu-
bonic plague in San Francisco, it is
agreed by all the medical men that
there is now none of the disease here,
and that all the danger, if any ever ex-
listed, has long been passed.
Every vessel now clearing from this
port is given a clean bill of health,
showing that there has been not even
a suspicion of plague here for at least
sixty days. In this the local healt h
board agrees with the federal quaran-
tine officers. The health authorities
are now preparing to assert positively
that San Francisco is a clean port.

ATTACKED CONSTABULARY.
Filipino Rebels XIII Inspector and One

Osher-FinmlIy Routed.
Manila, Feb. "a force of one hun
dred constabulary under Inspector
Keithly, yesterday defeated body of
two hundred insurgents near Mariqui-
ma, a small town seven miles from Ma
Mia City, after a severe engagement in
which Inspector Harris and one man
of the constabulary were killed and two
other men of the constabulary wound
ed. The enemy left fifteen dead and
three wounded. Inspector Harris home
was at Atlanta, Ga.
The body of insurgents formed the
main force of the irreconcilable general
San Miguel. The constabulary were
divided into three detachments, which
were scouting in the Maraquina valley.
The detachment commanded by Inspec-
tor Harris came upon the enemy, who
were in a strongly entrenched position.
Inspector Harris fell at the first volley,
being hit five times.
The detachment of constabulary, al
though outnumbered, held it's position
until Inspector Keithly with the main
force arrived, when the enemy were
put to route. Their headquarters were
captured and burned, and the constab-
ulary seized the records of San Miguel
who claims that he succeeded to the
command of the insurrectionary forces
when the other generals surrendered.
He has only handful of men under
him, and his operations have been of no
consequence. The wounds of the Amer
leans hurt are all severe.

WAR CLOUD In The BALKANS
BULGARIA MAKES IN APPEAL
TO THE POWERS.
Desires Their Good Offices at cOnstantI-
nOpIe to Procure Cessation of Turkish
Military Preparations nII Invade
Turkey in Case of a MacsdOnian Up-
rising.

turkey tn C0se of a MRcedUnian Up-
rising.
Sofia. Feb. 9.-Having received Off
cial information regarding Turkeys
decision to mobilize two army corps at
Adrianople and Monastir, the Bulgarian
government to-day addressed represen-
tations to the powers, invoking their
good offices at Constantinople to pro-
cure the cessation of the Turkish mill
tary preparations.
1t is felt here that while Turkeys re-
enforcement of her troops in Macedonia
may be justified in view of the internal
situation and the Austro- Servian mill
tary preparations, the mobilization at
Adrianople can be regarded only as a
menace to Bulgaria. It is stated that
the government will refrain from any
counter demonstration and only mobil-
ize the Bulgarian army in the case of
extreme necessity, it being fully real
lied that even successful conflict with
Turkey would mean financial ruin to
Bulgaria.
Vienna Feb. Sit is asserted here
that Bulgaria is determined to invade
Turkey in the event of an insurrection
in Macedonia and that the Macedonian
element in Bulgaria is so strong that
nothing can prevail against it. Prepa-
rations for great rising are proceed
ing quite openly. Four hundred officers
in the Bulgarian army are asking for
a prolonged leave which will not be re-
fused, in order to assist the rising in
Macedonia. 1t is reiterated that seven
bands, aggregating 5000 men, have all
ready been formed. The three largest
bands are led by Colonel Yankoff, Sar-
afoff and zontcheff respectively. These
bands will spread throughout Mace
donia under daring leaders and it is
calculated that they will soon be REIN
forced a hundred fold.
The unusually mild weather now
prevailing in the Balkans is held to fa-
yor an early outbreak, the only diff
Guilty being the paucity of funds, which
it is intended to overcome by the for
cfle levy of patriotic tax on Mace
domains. 1t is further. asserted that if
Bulgaria is unsuccessful she is assured
of Russian support.
