CUBAN VETERANS ARE ANGRY

ing Guards at Presidents Palace.
Havana, July 10.-A sens alton has
been caused here by the placing Of
eight members Of the rural guard on
=duty-as= =sentries at the palace and by
other precautionary measures that
have been taken by the government.
This action is due to rumors of the
possibility Of some of the malcontent
ex-revolutionary soldiers taking ex-
treme measures to force the govern
ment to pay the army. 1t is said the
veterans intended to hold meeting in
the Plaza de Armas, fronting the pal
ace. to make violent speeches against
the government and possibly to adopt
other measures. AS there has hitherto
been no guard at the palace, 1t was de-
cided to use the rurales for this pur-
pose 1t is the general opinion that
the matter is exaggerated.

SHANGHAIED BOY,s FATHER
Driven to Suicide by Ills vife's Acsu-
 saticns.

New York, Aug. S1.-C Christopher Thompson, fifty-two years old, the fa- ther of sixteen year-old Hugh Thomp- son, who was rescued four miles east of Sandy Hook last Thursday morning as he was about to be shanghaied to Japan on board the French bark Mare chal de Gontaut, committed suicide early yesterday morning in the Thompson apartments, No. 26O Front street, Brooklyn, by swallowing car- bolic acid.
 Coroner.s Physician Hartung learned of Thonlpson's death from an under taker who had been engaged by the family. Thompson leaves a wife and several children. On the day of his sons rescue he qlarrelled with his wife over the way lie was alleged to have treated the boy. Mrs. Thompson de- sclared in the presence of several per- sons that sch had ordered her husband out of the house and would break up housekeeping rather than live with him against She upbraided her husband for their boys troubles, and Thompson replied that he had shipped Hugh un- der a misconception as to the destina- ton of the bark. It is thought that Thompson brooded over the situation and feared the ordeal of having to face the federal authorities
 Thompson was himself sailor and generally shipped on coastwise vessels. His. last trip was to Portland, Me.

the defender rounded the mark. The British boat was more than two miles alee and coming slowly. The time at the outer mark was:
 Reliance, 3:O0:S7.
 Shamrock H., 3:21:00.
 Reliance led by 20 minutes. 23 sec- onds, barring time allowance.
 Reliance at first reached homeward under balloon jib taopsail and then car ried her spinnaker for mile only to resort to the ballooner again. With the wind aft of the beam. main sheet well in and ballooner bellying, she made good time and drew away from the challenger until the wind softened, when the speed of both slackened. Shamrock III. caught q freshening wind first and cut down Reliance's lead half a mile before the leader caught it. Then Reliance steadily gained until she had made good her two mile lead and added another half mile to it. Tn try ing to hold the wind in their jib top sails both yachts had run off their course, but at 4:30 both set spinnakers and headed straight for the finish. The wind was dying away and the spin makers drew poorly. Reliance was moving not more than four miles an hour and Shamrock. was two miles and a half astern of her when the commit tee boat signalled that the race was off. Both immediately took in sail and were taken in tow for Sandy Hook.
 The regatta committee of the New York Yacht club announced tonight that the yachts would race again to- morrow. !

RUSSIA AND JAPAN.
Proposal Of Modus vlvsndl Is maAing Progress.

London, Aug. 1.-Regarding the pro- posals for a modus vivendi in the far east. submitted by the Japanese minis ter at St. Petersburg. which contem- plate formal declaration and recogni- tion of the respective rights of Russia and Japan in Manchuria and Corea, Baron Hayashi, the Japanese minister here. said to-day that he must decline to discuss the pending negotiations; but he expressed the most hopeful view of an honorable and amicable settle ment of the differences between the two countries.
 Tt is my belief" he said, ..that any. small causes of friction with Russia will be ultimately settled Ir the mat ter of Corea it cannot be too clearly stated that Japan does not seek any, thing fresh there We have interests in Corea which we shall naturally maintain, but I do not see any very se- rious cause for trouble, either in regard to Codea or Manchuria Russia has promised the United States to evacuate Manchuria in October, and there is no rom to doubt that she will do so.
 At the same time regret was express ed by other members of the Japanese diplomatic corps at the promotion of M. Witte (the Russian finance nlinister) to be president of the council of ministers, which the Japanese regard as being a victory for the Russian war party The Japanese fear that M. Witte's removal from the finance ministry may retard the progress of the far western negotia- tions.
 The Russo-Japanese negotiations, says the St. Petersburg correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, are making headway, and there is no doubt that they will soon be brought to satisfac- tory issue

Report of the Royal Commission-Bet- ter Things Hoped For from the Newly
 Awakened Interest in the IsIands- Present AdministratIon UnpractIcaI.

Present Administration Impractical.
 Berlin, Aug. S1.-The National Zeit- ung says the Danish West Indian com mission is said to have reported as fol- lows to Finance Minister Haze: 4..
 The population of the islands is sat- isfied to remain under Danish rule. The whites hope, from the newly-awakened interest of Denmark in the islands. an improvement of economic conditions and the fostering of civilizing infiu- ences. The negroes for the greater part are indifferent and know but little about Denmark. The administration of the islands was found to be impractical and expensive and the hygienic condi- tions entirely unsatisfactory.
 It is believed, says the National Zeit- ung, that the commission will report in favor of reducing the military estab- lishment on the islands and reorganiz- ing the gendarmerie on modern lines. The report will also suggest that more attention be paid to public instruction. the improvement of the hospitals, the tobacco growing industry and the rais- ing of corn.
 The commission places great weight on the necessity for communication be- tween the islands themselves and with Denmark. The belief is expressed that the exports of the islands can be devel- oped, and in this connection hopes are based on the newly-formed West Indian Steamship and Land company. 5

 sentiments Expressed.


 Vienna. Aug. s1.-A state dinner in honor of King Edward was given at the Hosburg tonight. The company pres ent included the emperor, all the arch- dukes and archduchesses, the ministers, diplomats and the general staff of the army.
 Emperor Francis Joseph toasted King Edward in a speech in the course of which he hailed the latter.s visit as a fresh pledge for the maintenance of the close confidential relations which have long existed between the two families and countries and which were all the firmer because there was no political in terest or point of antagonism likely to east the shadow os a cloud between them.
 The king, in responding. expressed his thanks for the friendly sentiments ex- pressed towards him and the cordial 4receDtion he had met with, which he said had deeply touched him. He as- .sured the emperor of the continuance of the feelings of friendship which he had inherited from Queen Victoria, and con- cluded by appointing Emperor Francis Joseph a field marshal in the British army.
 |. This announcement created a deep impression and tn eemperor rose bow ed and pressed King Edwards hand. Tn the course of the dinner the monarchs .conversed with each other and the guests in an animated manner.
