ILLINOIS GUNS TO BE "rREArEp,,
They Will Be Brought to the "Gun
Hospital" Here.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NORFOLK, Va, May 14.-The battle ship
Illinois is being stripped Of the six-inch
guns Of her main battery to go through a
course OF treatment at what naval officers
call the "gun hospital in Washington.
The work Of dismounting the guns and
transferring them for shipment is a tre-
mendous job. The powerful cranes Of the
battle ship are being used for this purpose.
1t Is believed that the repairs that have
been found necessary to be made to the
ships battery will keep her at this navy
yard much longer than was expected when
she first arrived.
The guns will be rebored at the naval
gun factory at the Washington yard and
1t may be weeks before they are again in
stalled on board the ship. The defects that
are to be corrected developed in the re-
cent target practice and were so marked
that the six-inch battery was only used
for sub-caliber practice instead of for serv-
ice charges. ,--..

WERE ORGANIZING SECRETLY.
Conspiracy Was Discovered in Mexico
Town in the Philippines.

Unofficial advices from Manila are to the
effect that fifty residents of the town of
Mexico were arrested early in April on the
charge of sedition. The prisoners included
some of the best people In the town. Near
ly all OF them are followers of Aglipay, the
leader of the new church movement and
their leading spirit was an ex-insurgent
general, who surrendered with a strong
force about year and a half ago and took
the oath of allegiance. Certain operations
in Mexico aroused the suspicion of the au-
thorities and secret service men who were
ordered to make an investigation, discov-
cred secret organization in working order
the object of which was to organize an
armed force of Filipinos of sufficient
strength to conquer the Americans and es-
tablish an Independent government. The
prompt action of the authorities in arrest
Ing the ring leaders put an effectual stop to
the scheme and removed all danger of it's
resurrection.
