riage to the Dock Through
Cheering FilipinOs.

MANILA, Nov. 9.--The departure of
on the cruiser Rainbow for Vladivostol1
today was attended by remarkable
demonstration on the part of the Fill
pinos. The horses were withdrawn from
the carriage in which were seated Mr..
and Mrs. Taft, and it was pulled by
Manila school boys from the Luneta
to the steamship dock through cheer
ing crowds of citizens.
Mr.. Taft started from the residence
of Governor General Smith at 8 o'clock
this morning. He reviewed the long
military, civic and school parade on
the Luneta at 9, making a brief ad-
dress, In which he thanked the people
for their reception. praised the course
of the assembly and expressed his con-
fidence in the future of the island.
Mr.. Taft and party embarked at 11:3O
a. m. and sailed at 11:50, the launch on
which they were being escorted down
the bay by a flotilla of harbor launches
with military and civil officials on
board to the Rainbow, where they
said their last goodbys. Mr.. Taft and
party expect to arrive. at Vladivostok
on November Is, and to leave there
on their trans Siberian journey on No
vember 10. All of the party were in
the best of health.
In an interview with a representa-
tive of the Associated Press before his
departure Mr. Taft said:
II feel deeply grateful for the reception
and entertainment given me by the people
Of the Philippines. 1t far exceeds in liz
warmth and spontaniety, anything I ex-

After Shocking Stories
Are Told.
nine OTHERS In CUSTODY
Police Surgeons Report Puts
Men in Grave Predicament.
One Girl of Tender Age
in a Very Serious
Condition.
NINE OTHERS IN CUSTODY

What the police say is the worst
case of it's kind ever brought to their
attention was partly aired today In
the First Criminal Court, when ten
men, among whom was Walter Bross,
a Commerce street merchant, were ar
raigned before Acting Judge Howell
and held in $1,000 each for the Grand
Jury.
Ten girls, whose ages range from II
to Is years, are held at the station as
material witnesses against the men.
That Bross, who is well known in
shocking case of this kind is a puz-
zle to the police, who were at first dis
inclined to believe the statements of
the girls. With the exception of Henry
Odenwald, of Clifton, the other men
in the case are Italians.
Police Surgeon Clark found enough to
warrant the police in holding the men. One
Of the girls is in such a physical condition
that It will be necessary to take her TO the
hospital for treatment.
No more arrests are expected in the case,
but the police believe that they have
enough evidence against all Of the men to
send them to Jail for twenty years each.
The roundup Of the men was accom-
plished by the dint of hard work by Plain
clothes Policemen King and Smith. In ont
case Policeman King was offered $50 IT
b1 lbe money not to arrest one of the men
who will be held on that charge also,
All of the girls are known to each other
and with but two exceptions the men ars
acquainted. Bross is not known to any
Of the italians arrested In connection witt
the girls stories, nor is Odenwald. The
latter is produce merchant of Clifton
Serious charges are made against him, af
against the other men.
Nicholas Accisani. of 34S Mulberry street
is thought TO be the proeurer of the girls
for the other Italians, and it was at his
place, 1t is claimed. that four of the young
girls were led astray.
Five girls made the charges against
Bross, and their stories are eorroborated
by each other. Bross was not asked TO
make any statement. He pleaded not
guilty to the complaints against him in the
First Criminal Court.

B0SCHIETER SLAYERS
ARE SEEKING PARDONS.
One Hundred and Twenty Convicts
After Parole from Pardon Board
as Christmas Gifts.

TRENTON, Nov. 9.--Many prominent
convicts' names appear among the 120
petitioners for parole at the hands of the
November term of tine Court of Pardons.
The number of petitioners constitute 10
per cent. Of the full population of the State
Prison. and the list Is doubtless so large
owing to the custom of the Pardon Court
to sit for the final disposition of cases just
prior to Christmas. The Santa Claus role
OF the court is popularity supposed to make
the court members a little lenient
Among those desiring parole are Walter
McAllister and William A. Death, SEN
fenced from Passaic County in January,
1901, to thirty years at hard labor for the
killing of Miss Jennie Boschieter, of Pat

Seventeen other men convicted of murder

BOOM PRINCE
AS SPEAKER
OF-HOUSE
Columbia Professor Has
Backing--As LinguiSt
Made Many Votes.

PATERSON, Nov. 9.--Professor John
d. Prince, of Columbia College, the
leader of the Passaic County delega-
tion to the New Jersey Assembly, is
reported to be slated to be the next
Speaker of the General Assembly. In
the recent election he was returned to
his seat for the second time in three
years, and as he is the veteran Regu-
lar Republican of the North Jersey
district he is regarded by his friends
as the logical man for the place.
The Speakership alternates between
the Republicans of North and South
Jersey, and the latest Republican
Speaker was Senator Robbins, OF Bur-
lngton, His boomers say that 1t was
chiefly Professor Princes work this
year which swung in the Passaic
County delegation of five men by a
comfortable margin.
The professors campaign methods
are uniqus because the Columbia pro-
fessor is master of thirty languages
and dialects. His district, which takes
in Paterson and Passaic, has very
many foreign voters. Professor Prince
was able to address the French-speak-
ine Belgians, the Italians, German and
Dutch in their native tongues. On one
occasion in the campaign he made
fcrty-minute talk to the Italians.
The strength of his vote was from
the foreigners. to whom he thus put
the issues of the campaign. There are
n any Slavs in the district, and they,
too, voted for him, because a Slav1sh
paper came out strongly for the Co
lumbia man. He does not speak much
Slavic, but reads and writes it well.

TUCSON AND ALLEN
 DETENTION CAMP

Unusual activity has characterized the immigration officials who worR under Captain George Webb of Tue son, as a result Of a bunch of Rus sians, Japanese and Chinese who are now headed for that city, where they VII be kept in the county jail at the expense of the government until their cases are finally disposed of.
 Nogales contributed TWO Chinamen who sought to come into this cOun- try without having the proper pass ports. and one Chink was found by an inspector hiding among the hills of Bisbee. Inspector Jeff Milton reached Tucson late last night with bunch of Russians who were entering this country from Mexico without having the proper credentials. These Rus slans are said to be part of big bunch recently imported into Mexico for railroad work.
 The Russians were arrested for coming into this country Tn violation of the new immigration laws and are assured of a long trip at the expense of the United States government If they are found guilty. They will have all of the.r expenses paid by rail from Tucson to New York and by steam ship from New York to one of the Russian ports. However, on the journey they do not occupy Pullnlans on the railroad nor does their trans portation call for stateroOms in the steamer.

EX-GOVERNOR CABILLA
 PAYS VISIT ID DOUGLAS
Important Significance Is At tached to the Visit of the
 Vice Governor

DOUGLAS. July 19-(speeial9-
 A notable visitor in Douglas last evening and this morning was Hon. Alberto Cab.llas, yiee-governor of So- nora and soon to succeed to the gov ernorship upon Governor Torres as suming again the command of the northern military zone of Mexico, which will come about at an early date. The governor, after being en- tertained by numerous persons here and in this vicinity, more or less identified with both Southwestern and Southern Pacific railroad inter ests, left this morning ct 10 o'clock in the motor car of the NacOzari rail road, accompanied by representatives of that road.
 While it is announced today that the visit of Vice-GoveTnor Cabillas here and at Nacozari has no special significance and that he is in this section to familiarize himself with general conditions, before his aeces- sion to the goyernorship of Sonora, it is known that his visit here has es- peciaIly to do with the threatened, if not actual, complications that have arisen in the past few days over the entrance of the Southern Pacific into Nacozari and the condemnation pro ceedings, to clear its right-ofway, that road has begun.
 Representing the S. P. and seeing that he was properly entertained here, among others, were Hon. N. E. Bailey, Southern Pacific mogul at Naco; Dr. Goodfellow. chief surgeon for the Randolph lines, and the local brokers for the Southern Pacific. Con nected with the Southwestern inter ests and equally solicitous that MT. Cabiilas should be well entertained were Superintendent F. B. King of the Southwestern, Superintendent c. A. Brown of the Nacozari railroad and L. H. Van Treese. the Nacozari railroad broker. The Honorable Neil and one of the S. P. brokers brealtfasted with the vice-governOr, while later the other s. P. broker showed the vice-governor the differ ent points of interest in the city from the vantage point of an automobile.
 Then, enter Mir. King, superintend- eut of the Southwestern. Enter also. about the same time. his automobile car. Then, at 10 o'clock, exit Mir. King and Mir. Cabillas in the motor car for Nacozari. The party is now at Old Placeritas and there cond-- tions will be threshed out with a sur felt of representatives of both of the railroads. What influence on the sit uation the visit of the vicegovernor will have is problematical, though that much importance is attached to his presence at NacoZai is apparent.
 A representative of the s. P. this morning confirmed heretofore pub lished accounts of the activity of the s. P. in getting into NaeoZari prop CT. He said that many shaCks had been torn down in the right-of-way. but after legal and regular cOndemna- tory proceedings. It is stated that S P. engineers have picked their marks on the fine new club house recently erected by the Moctezuma Copper company and that if 1t comes to the worst this obstacle will be cleared from the right-Of-way. However, no orders have been given to interfere with this building.
