returned from Los Angeles few days

from the Nadeau hotel because of his
peculiar actions. DIR. Martin has been
attending him and had arranged to go
with him to England in few days.
Stanhope was especially morbid last
night.

no effort was made to call him until
noon at the Holy Rood hotel. On get
ting on response his door was forced OPP
en-. The Englishman's head was almost
severed from the body. His family have
been notified by cable and the DISPOSE

Stanhope, but simply that he was
British subject and has no advices as
to his family

The sections of the report found in
disfavor related to the quality of meat
and the prevalence to tubercular germs
and lumpy Jaws in cattle. This was
the question around which the dissen-
sion between the laymen and the ex-
perts centered.
1.-THE experts stood firm. They would
not alter their report in any 1lnpor-
tant essential it is asserted. They
cut it down from sixty one to fifty-one
pages, but the laymen contend, ana
the experts support them in the asser-
ton, that this was merely for the
purpose Of condensation.
1T is admitted that one especially
drastic paragraph relating to diseased
cattle was stricken out In explanation
it was said that the offending para graph
was but repetition of former state
ment. In fact, the committee as d
whole denies any serious clash.

CASTRO LOUDLY WELCOMED.
Returns to Capital and Reassumes
Venezuelan Government.

Washington. July AFTER d retire
ment of three months from the ardu-
Gus duties of president of turbulent,
debt-burdened Venezuela, General CT
priano Castro has returned to Cara
cas- and, amid the salvos of artillery
which greeted his entry into the cap
Ital and the gorgeous fete day displays
resumed the reins of government.
Ever since he wrested the presidency
from his predecessor by the famillar
means of revolution, General Castros
most delicate and necessarily recurring
duty has been to stand off foreign cred
itors. keep the custom houses out or
national bankruptcy proceedings ana
prevent by daring diplomatic means
the appearance OF hostile fleets on his
country's shores. 1t was from labors
such as this that he retired to rest,
and having rested he has returned to
face them again.
American Claims First.
Even before the festivities closed the
business of pressing claims, which had
Jagged during his absence, began
again. The first foreign representative
to get busy was Minister Russell, who
had received instructions to see that
Castro arranged to settle at once the
long pending American claims.
Festivities of the most imposing
character and extending over two days
marked President Castro's return.
Five triumphal arches were erected In
Caracas along the route of the state
parade to the federal palace where a
reception was rendered the returning
president by all the governors OF states
and mayors of municipalities.
Salvos OF artillery were fired turnout
the day and at night there were dis
plays Of fireworks on the Plaza Bolivar
and an illumination of the eliptical
room of the federal palace On the
evening before President Castro's re-
sumption Of the office there was
state ball. followed early the next day
by TIE Deum at the Metropolitan ca
thedral.
Estate Is a Fortress.
In addition to the Examinations and
festivities gala performance was pro-
vided at the municipal theater.
During his retirement, General Cas-
tro resided on his estate at the foot OF
the Andes mountains in the town of
La Victoria, which is the greatest mil
ttary stronghold of the republic and
considered the key to its capital, Car
acas. In 1905 he took a similar recess
for two months.

James K. Allen Carried Out to
Sea in Airship by Strong
Breeze on July Fourth
RESCUED BY A FISHING SMACK
After Sailing Seventy Miles Over the
Water Fortunate Shift Of Wind Car
4 ries Him Over Fishing Grounds and
He i. Reseued--Was Thought to
Nave Drowned.

Boston, July 7.--After one of the
most remarkable experiences in the
history Of aerial navigation, James X.
Allen, the aeronaut, who made a bal
loon ascension at Providence on the
Fourth Of July, was brought to this
port last night on the fishing schooner
Francis st. Sylvia. Allen was picked
up at sea twelve miles off Chatham. at
1880 o'clock Thursday morning, eigh-
teen ard a half hours after his depar-
ture from Providence.
Allen had a narrow escape from
death from drowning, the winds that
prevailed Wednesday having blown his
balloon a long distance from shore.
Until news Of his arrival here became
known, 1t had been thought that he had
met his death, as it was known that
at the last time he was sighted We'd
nesday evening, he was travelling out
! to sea.
That Allen is alive today is due
wholly to fortunate shift Of the wind.
When he made his, ascension at Provi-
dence, on Wednesday, the wind was
blowing brisk breeze from the south
west.
The aeronaut was carried in his ball
loon in a northeasterly direction and
passed over the town OF Attleboro. He
had his balloon under perfect control
at that time, and while in the vicinity
Of Attleboro he descended twice.
From Attleboro the air ship Travelled
In the direction Of Brockton and the
last seen OF the aeronaut by observers
on shore was when he passed over
Scituate early in the evening.
Headed for Sea.
at that time the balloon was headed
straight out to sea. When Thursday
dawned without any news being receiv-
"a from Allen, and it became known
that the last time he was seen was
when he was on the ocean shore head
ed out to sea, it was then believed that
he would never return.
After Allen passed over Massachu-
setts bay his plight was more perilous.
Wednesday night he was over Prov
ancetown At this point OF the voyage
the wind shifted from southwest to
northeast and from Provincetown the
balloon sailed down the outer Cape
Cod coast.
At 1880 the aeronaut was rescued off
Chatham bay by the fishermen of the
sylvia. The balloon was saved in good
condition and brought to Boston on the
schooner. During his flight Allen COW
cred total distance Of about 200 miles,
nearly half of which was over water.
The point where he was picked UP is
about seventy-seven miles from Prov
idence in a direct line.

eminent on Terre haute.
Terre Haute, Ind, July 7.-Mayor
Edwin Bidaman last night laid down
on his declaration that he would hold
his office even if dual city govern
ment were formed, and City Controller
Buckingham has become acting mayor.
Il Judge W. D. Robinson Of the state
appellate court, sitting as special
Judge In the circuit court, late yester-
day afternoon dissolved the order Bida-
man had obtained to restrain Bucking-
ham from assuming to act as acting
mayor.
Judge Robinson held that the action
OF the city council in impeachfng May
or Bidaman was legal and that Bida-
man had no claim on the office. The
petition for the restraining order was
based on the assertion that Mr.. Bida-
man was being deprived of office with
out due process of law.
Bidaman had stated that If the order
were dissolved he would force Buck
ingham to start quo warranto proceed
ings or there would be dual govern
ment, hut he concluded to step down
and out and bring the proceedings
himself to test the validity Of the coun-
ciHs action.
George Limits. the Bidaman chief of
police, has resigned. and Acting Mayor
Buckingham has called for the resig-
nations Of the Bidanan board of safe
ty. He has named I. G. Reading, pres
tdent Of the Manufacturers Club, as
president of the new board, and Otto
Hornung, merchant, and DR.. L. P.
Luckett as the other members They
met last night to reorganize the police
department and decide on their policy
as to law enforcement.
Acting Mayor Buckingham probably
will name his board Of public works,
city attorney, and other officers to-
day, but is likely to have trouble get
ting men to serve for the short time
before Mayor-elect Lyons takes his
office. The issue was on police adj

charge Of that department are willing
to serve only two months.

TROOPS ATTACK REBELS.
President of Dominican Republic Be-
gins Struggle.

Washington, July 7-Hostilities were
begun between the rebels and the
government sorces of the Dominican
republic yesterday and advices receiv-
ed by the navy department state that
all efforts to effect a peaceable settle
ment have failed. When the rebels re-
fused to give up their control of the
city and province of Monte Christi,
President Caceres ordered his forces to
attack them. The first days fighting
was characterized by guerilla tactics.
A cablegram received at the navy
department late in the day from Com
mander Switzerland, who is in charge
at the American naval forces in Dom
inican waters was as follows:
The government leaders have at
tackled the rebels, but are being met
by guerilla tactics and the prospects
are that if these tactics are continued
the government forces will be worn out.
The leaders of the old revolutionary
movement are endeavoring to return
to the country
Peaceful Measures Fail.
Advices received earlier in the day
from Commander Switzerland relative
to the status of the revolutionary
movement state
"a representative Of the government
| is now in Monte Christi comforting
with leaders of the rebellious forces
there in the effort to affect peacea-
BILE settlement of the difficulty, but so
far without success The rebel leaders
insist on retaining absolute control
of the city and province of Monte
Christi; the government absolutely re-
jects these terms and orders have come
from President Carceres to attack the
rebels Immediately. The government
force Is made up of about 800 men en-
rolled in Monte Christi and as many
more brought from the interior, max
ing a total Of 600 soldiers who are
about to attack the rebel force of 500
men. The government also has a gum
boat at Monte Christi ready to assist
the soldiers in the attack"
It is believed that the United States
government will not interfere unless
the interests which this government
feels bound to protect are disturbed. 1t
is evidently the belief of officials here
that hostilities can not proceed far
without making necessary the landing
of marines from the American war
ships to see that none of the agree
ments which have been made with the
Santo Domingo government are vio-
lated.
