APOSTOLIC DELEGATE RELIEVED
Archbishop of New Orleans Will No
Longer Officiate in Cuba.


Longer Officiate in Cuba.
Havana, Cuba, April 12.-According
to news received here, Mgr. Chapelle
Archbishop of New Orleans. has been
definitely relieved from the office of
Apostolic Delegate in Cuba. 1t ap-
pears that since Mgr. Chapelle was
in Rome last winter it has been de-
cided at the Vatican that he should
abandon the delegation of the An
titles, but once more in America he
wrote to the Holy See asking that
this measure be postponed. The Vat
lean. however wishing to put an end
to troubles arising from accusations
of a personal character against the
Archbishop. has now confirmed its
decision. So Mgr. Chapelle will not
return to Cuba, and from what has
been learned from Rome, it appears
that he will very likely be snbstitu-
ted by a prelate of the Curia, that is
one now employed at the Vatican

The delayed inspection of Company
by the officers sent out by the Sec
retary of War occurred last night
Bad railroad connections kept the
officers from arriving on time. and
this was responsible for the delay.
Adjutant General A. P Tarking-
ton, for the Territory of New Mexico.
and Captain w. S. Valentine, of the
Fifth United States Cavalry, for the
Secretary of War, were the inspecting
officers. and their inspection was not
only minute in every detail, but was
rigid. There were % men and three
officers present, which is about half
the number in the company
The comments of the inspection of
ficers, after they had completed thei1
work. was very gratifying to the of
fcers and men. They have inspected
all of the six companies and the one
cavalry troop in the Territory and
although they said nothing in the
way of comparison between this and
the other companies, they gave The
Record reporter to understand that
Company B was well up at the tor
in many points of excellence
The officers stated that this compa-
NY is in splendid shape both as to
drill and equipment. They said that
the two needs of the company are
more men and an armory, General
Tor yir,crt Cfo cd hot II
opinion that the business men of Ros-
well should see that the company
was enabled to secure some large
room suitable for an armory. He said
that if such an armory were secured
he would take steps to secure what
rent he could for the room
Talking further of Company B and
militia subjects, General Harrington
said:
This company like all others
not already secured a good target
range they should do so. They have
the targets and all of the men should
have an opportunity to practice shoot
ing at least once a week
THE present arrangement for the
housing and preserving of the CON-
pany equipment is as good as il Isl
possible to make it, with only one lit
tie room for that purpose. An armory
would give the men not only place
to drill, but also place for the keep
ing of arms and equipment that
would be far superior to the present
arrangement.
The officers of Company B need
all of the encouragement it is posi-
to give them | understand they have
considerable support along this line,
and l am glad to hear it, They should
have more, and the support should
take the form and strength of
movement on the part of the business
men to secure a place for the compa-
NY suitable for an armory- 1t takes
much work to keep up an organiza-
ton of this kind and keep up the in
terest. as is done in Roswell and the
officers should be encouraged in their
efforts

Russians Have No Information.

St. Petersburg, April 12.-The ad-
mira1ty has no information in regard
to the alleged naval battle in prog
ress off Anambas islands, as reported
from Batavia, and does not credit the
possibility of a general naval battle
yet The officials concede however.
that the Japanese may have attempt
ed a torpedo attack on the convoy
during the night. 1t is pointed out
that there is no cable connection
with the Anambas islands and Bata-
via. and that the first news of the
less the Dutch war ships are able to
communicate with Batavia by wire
less telegraphy.
London. April 12.-No confirmation
has yet been received in London of
naval battle off the Anambas islands.
and as there is no cable connection
with those islands it is difficult to
see how Batavia could have got such
news before Singapore.
A dispatch to Lloyd's from Singa-
pore today practically confirms the
first information of the Associated
Press regarding the composition OF
the Russian squadron which passed
Singapore on the Sth. Lloyd's agent
says it is composed of seven battle
ships, two armored cruisers, three
converted cruisers. seven torpedo
boat desIroyers, seventeen transports
and hospital ships and a tug.
The Associated Press is able to
confirm absolutely the statement that
the Russian battle ships passed Sin
gapore going eastward on April Sth,
so that all the vessels of Vice Admi-
raj Rojestvensky's squadron are ac-
counted for This definite news about
the battle ships was sent to Singapore
by wireless telegraph from the China
sea. 1t is presumed here that the bat
tie ships passed further out to sea
than the rest of the squadron, hence
the divergent reports regarding the
number of ships.
