GOVERNOR TAFT WILL NOT TURN
BACK ANY PART OF TROOPS
ORDERED TO CUBA.
Gan Be USED TO GARRISON TOWNS
EXPECTS NO OPPOSITION TO DIS
ARMAMENT OF THE lNSUR-
GENT FORCES.

Havana, Oct. S.-Governor Taft
says that he has no intention of turn
ing back any portion of the expedi-
ton of $500 regular troops ordered to
Cuba. He feels that this number is
needed as a precaution against future
trouble. Although he does not pay
serious attention to the rumors of op-
position to the disarmament of the
insurgents he says that the troops to
be sent here will be sufficient to fully
garrison the towns and will establish
confidence among the disbanded in
snrgents that they will not be imposed
upon by the municipal police or rural
guards. The return of General Pine
Guerra to Pinar del Rio is expected to
aid materially in winding up matters
in that province. The question of
pride as to which side shall lay down
their arms first is causing some diff
ficultyin .Pinar del Rio, as elsewhere.
Even the municipal police have been
temporarily disbanded in some in
stances as a precaution against
clashes.
Liberal Leader Will Assist.
Senior Xiques, the Liberal leader in
Puerto Principe, visited Governor
Taft during the day, accompanied by
General del Castillo. At the request
Of the governor Xiques will use his in
Auence in bringing about the prompt
disarmament of the insurgents in Pu-
srto Principe. Getting the insurgents
homo and breaking up their organiza-
tions Is believed by Mr.. Taft to be of
far more Importance than getting
them to lay down their arms, although
this does not mean that the disarma-
ment commission Is not vigorously
pressing the demand for the disarma
ment of the insurgents. When all the
1nsurgent forces, are disbanded the
mcrauders can be dealt with as in
dividuals and will not be able to cloak
their depredations under the pretense
of foraging for the rebel camps.
The government volunteers are cir
culatiEg rumor that the insurgents
are maintaining their organizations,
but this is not believed by the Amer
lean army officials

MUSIC AND
THE DRAMA
Miss Yaw to sina Again

Long before noon yesterday every
seat at the Mason was sold for the YaW
concert given last evening, and there
were sufficient requests filed to fill an
auditorium half as large as the Mason.
These requests were for second con-
cert, which Miss Yaw has finally con-
sented to give at Simpson auditorium
on next Thursday evening. June q
Many students of music were not able
to secure seats for the Yaw concert, and
arrangements have been made for an
extra large number of medium priced
seats for this second appearance of Miss
Yaw. The reserved seat sale will open
at Birkel's music store on Monday
morning, June 4. Orders may be left,
however, during today in advance at
the Birkel Office. Miss Yaw will select
an entirely different program for this
second concert.

An air by Mozart, III Re Pastore."
was her opening. in which she had the
assistance of Senior Ruiz, violnist of
ability. The great aria from Les
Huguenots" followed, and Carpenter $
Air de Louise" was another. A
group of three jovial laughing songs
led up to the Lucia mad scene, and
two English songs gave way to a group
of old favorites which were especially
enjoyable, while David's Thou Bril-
liant Bird" with the flute obligato
concluded an excellent series of selec-
tions. Senior Ruiz and his violin and
Mr.. Mead and his flute were her as
sistants, while Miss Mary O'Donoghue
and Mrs. T. Newman as accompanies
were all that could have been wished.

HOLDS RECEPTION
ON STAGE AFTER
THE CONCERT

Not the least delightful feature of
Miss Yaw's concert last evening was
the informal reception she held on the
stage when old friends, who loved her
before she won the plaudits of the
world, and some new ones as we'll,
gathered to pronounce their words of
praise.
Around her were flowers of every
color and variety, the loving tributes
of friends and she smiled and bowed a
welcome to all who came.
The concert might have been given
in the drawing room of the artist S
home, there was so much charming in
formality. Society matrons, maids and
men, and many who belong more es-
pecially to the musical cliques, com
posed a large part of the audience and
the scene was q brilliant one.
Several hundred who desired to hear
were unable to gain admittance.
Among those who entertained guests
were General Harrison Gray Otis, Mr..

Heartrendlng Suspense

For more than week little Ellen

City while her parents, frantic with
anxiety, met every train that arrived
i'm Los Angeles. only to be disap-
pointed.
More than six weeks ago little Ellen
Swanson and her cousin, Ellen Bron-

Postal cards provided for the little

that his little girl and her cousin We're
in the emergency hospital in Kansas
City, sick with the measles, no mes

DECLARES INSANE
GEORGE F. LOHMAN
FAMOUS BASEBALL PLAYER
VICTIM OF PARESlS
PitifuI Scene as Judge Commits Man,
Well Known to Lovers of the
National Game, to the
Asylum

George It. Lohman, former manager
and catcher for the Clkland baseball
team and one of the best known ball
players in the world. was yesterday
ordered committed to Highland insane
asylum by Judge James in department
2 of the superior court.
The examination was one of the most
pitiful in the history of Southern Cali
fornia and the silence of the court
room was broken only by the sobs of
Mrs. Kathleen Lohpan, the accused
mans wife.
Lohman had little to say to the court
He was suffering from paresis in its
most acute form. and the examining
physicians inquired into the case as
quickly as possible, signed the order
committing Lohman to the asylum and
then hurried on with the next case.
Mrs. Lohman was the chief witness
against her husband and her grief at
being placed in such a position was
pitiable. When she entered the court
room she hurried to her husband and
began sobbing. Lohman, with the love
which he has always shown toward his
Wife, petted and caressed her and tried
to comfort her.
Could Not Remember
1t was a heart breaking sight to see
the grizzled old ball player, swarthy
as an Indian, erect and muscular,
struggling sorrowfully in an effort to
remember his actions of Thursday night
when he attempted to throw one of his
friends out of the house.
Lohman was declared incompetent
several months ago and his large prop
erty interests were given to the charge
of relatives. Since that time he has
given up all work, including ball play
ing, and has lived with his wife and
3-year-old baby girl at Ocean Park.
According to the allegations of Mrs.
Lohman, her husband frequently re-
marked that he was going to take her
and the little girl and sail out across
the ocean to heaven.
Thursday night Lohman became en-
ragged at a young woman who was with
his Wife. He accused the woman of
having taken his pocketbook and at
tempted to put the visitor out Of the
house.
Three deputy sherffs were sent to
Ocean Park to take charge of Lohman,
whom they managed to handcuff after
a rough and tumble fight
Lohman had only one request to
make yesterday. AS he was leaving
the court room he turned to Deputy
Sheriff Tom Strohm, who is one of his
best friends.
Say the Lords prayer for me, Tom,"
said Lohman, and then he walked over
to the county jail.

"LOS ANGELES BONDS
OUGHT TO BRING PREMIUM"
NEW YORK EXPERT COMM ENTS
ON RECENT ISSUE
"As Good as Any That Are Floated"
In the United States, Declares
Eminent New York Financier
Writer

Gustave Simon, an eminent New York
bond expert, who has charge of the
bond department Of the New York
Financier, has sent to the Herald his
opinion concerning the proper time, in
terest, rate, etc, of the coming $2S7, 500
bond issue. Expert Simon enters into
the workings of municipal issues and
shows how the best results are accom-
plished.
Mr.. Simon says:
Los Angeles as about to offer for
sale an issue of $2S7 500 sewerage bonds.
1.-The condition of the municipal bond
market is quite ripe for a good Cali
fornia loan, and there is no doubt that
the bond dealers in New York city and
Chicago will eagerly bid for the loan
if the proper interest rate is fixed.
Municipalities during recent years,
not content with spending about $4,000
calling for an election to vote loans,
have embraced the insane idea of Of
fering stock at 1855 per cent interest,
when they should have borne at least
Az per oentum per annum.
Los Angeles is in the midst of well
earned prosperity. She has risen from
an insignificant little town to city Of
great influence, and her financial power
is felt all over the United States.
Ought to Bring Premium
"The bonds of this city ought to
bring good premium, and If the proper
measures are adopted providing for the
interest rate, there is every reason to
believe that very satisfactory results
Will be forthcoming.
"The best time to offer the sewerage
loan is between June Is and July 20.
1t would be best for the citys interest
to fix the date of sale early in July.
There are many little questions that
Il
that do not appear in official advertise
ments, and for this reason it would be
best to allow time for the receipt of
the letter by the city and return reply
to the queStioner. If the time between
the date of sale and first announcement
is but ten days, it would be impossible
for the municipality to secure the want
ed results.
Bankers Need Time
Give the banking classes time to bid
properly. Call money is being offered
at 21a per cent, while commercial paper
is being loaned at 3% per cent.
'"The average municipal bond rate is
from to 5 per cent, and loans bearing
this interest rate are being eagerly bid
for over the counters.
"Los Angeles bonds are as good as
any that are being floated in the United
States. They have the powerful influ-
eliCe III tne pdCh VI tHell lndI lHe clly iS
fast outstripping rivals; that there is
no shame resting on the administra-
tion that it's citizens are satisfied with
the official regime, and that the office
holders do not abuse the trust imposed.
1T Is to be regretted that the various
other issues were defeated. The spirit
of improvement must be shown by q
municipality in order to inspire conf
dence, and the true situation of the de-
feat Of the storm sewer, engine, police
station and bridge bonds, is unknown
here-perhaps the citizens were justi-
fled in defeating the projects"
