FILIPINO TROOPS MuTlNY.
Seize Post and Attack Americans and
Loyal Natives.

Manila, June IA portion of the
Second company of native constabula-
ry, stationed at Davao, in the island OF
Mindanao. in the Southern part Of the
Philippine archipelago, mutinied on the
night of June and attacked the COM
pany quarters, which they captured
after wounding one of the native Off
GERS. After fight on the following
day, which lasted three hours, and in
which an American named Libbey was
killed and four others wounded, the
mutineers took to the mountains upon
the approach of company of constab-
ulary stationed at Mapi, which hurried
to the relief of the besieged Americans
and loyal natives.
With tn receipt Of the news of the
mutiny today came also word that de-
tachments of the Twenty-third infantry
have reached Davao and quickly sue
ceeded in restoring order. Several col
umns of troops were Immediately dis
patched in pursuit of the mutineers.
1t is believed here that the mutiny
was of purely local character, resulting
from differences over food supplies or
the care of the women of the families
of the constabulary. 1t is thought to
be confined to members Of one company
at Davao, aand the fact that neigh
boring company, also composed of ma
tives, hurried to the relief of the be-
sieged governor and the few Americans
at the place is cited as proof of this.
Acting Governor General Forbes is
expected in Manila tonight. when a
conference with General Duval, COM
manding the division of the Philippines,
will be held. 1t is expected that the
determination will be reached at this
conference vigorously to pursue the
mutineers until the last one is captured

Wilson Is In No Danger.

Washington, June ia petition
signed by the Indians of the klamath
reservation, asking the removal of
Horace G. Wilson, their agent, was re-
ceived by the Indian office some time
ago, but it is understood to have been
circulated by disgruntled Indians, and
failed to allege any substantial ground
upon which Wilson could be relieved.
So little Importance was attached to
the protest that it was pigeon-holed
without action. Wilson's record, so
far as is known by the Indian office, is
entirely satisfactory.

DE PAUL GOES HOME.
Venezuelan Envoy at Paris Recalled
in Disgrace.

in Disgrace.
Paris, June 15.-Jose j. de Paul, the
special representative of Venezuela to
Europe, received his recall by tele-
graph from the Venezuelan govern
ment just as the protocol with France
was concluded.
Senior Paul says that he was stupe-
fed by the action of his government.
II cannot understand, he said,
show President Gomez could have al
lowed himself to be hoodwinked by the
interference of some few groups"
These groups, he said, had accused
him of high treason at the time OF the
downfall of President Castro, because
as minister of foreign affairs he had
notified the United States government
through Senior Lorena, the Brazilian
minister to Venezuela, that Venezuela
desired to settle all difference with
foreign powers and requested the
American government to send war
ship to Venezuelan waters. A similar
notification was sent to Great Britain
and Italy.
Senior Paul declared that the situa-
tion at the time was desperate; that
the support of the army was uncertain
and that many of Castro's friends and
relatievs were in high positions.
at is less conciliator than man
with an iron hand that Venezuela
needs" he said.
Nevertheless, in spite of my dis
grace because I am conservative, |
shall continue to give President Gomez
my support in maintaining the regime
helped to establish"

steamer Ava, from Hamburg, blew up
last night about 10 miles off Pantel-

mated, as he has heard nothing since
forwarding the papers.

game the first few innings but the
Rapid City boys we're soon outclassed
and the Fall River county team made
hits and run in scores at will. The
Ardmore team are certainly players
and as they are thoroughly organized
and have been playing together all

to play first class ball. The Rapid
