SULTAN OF SULU

Trip Ended When Military Heard
of It, Says a Manila
Paper.

MANILA, April 2S. = There was n
boat in from ,Ioo yesterday morning
but-for all that the officers, the crew,
and the passengers on board could be
induced to say for publication-thefe
might as well be no Jolo situation. One
man even went so far as to state to
Manila Times reporter that he had
been given the straight tip to hold his
tongue, and that as the military were
IN control of things-he thought he
might just as we'll obey.
Only one man on board the Neil Mac
lcod, which was the vessel to arrive
from the south, said anything at all,
and he told the tale of the abortive at
tempt OF the Sultan of Sulu to come to
Manila to confer with Governor Gen
eral Forbes, or Major General Bell, or
both, The Sultan took passage from
Jolo to Iamboanga, and there, in n
mysterious way, his voyage ended.
According to our informant, the Sui.
tan left Jolo on Tuesday, April 81, with
suite OF four Moro attendants. In Jolo
it was rumored that he intended to go
to Washington for an interview with
President Wilson. He and his men had

Manila. Tickets were purchased and
the names of the Sultan and his suite
entered upon the passenger manifest.
AT eleven in the forenoon of April
%, a colonel, accompanied by con.
stabulary officer, boarded the Neil Mac
leod, inquired from members of the
crew as to whether the Sultan had re.
turned to the ship, and also ordered the
constabulary officer to take charge of
the Sultan's personal effects, consisting
of two trunks and one handbag, which
afterwards were taken ashore by carga.
dores.
While the ship was in port in Fam
boanga a eonstabulary officer remained
on board, and another was seen posted
ON the pier. No reason was given eth.
err by the Sultan or any of the officers
for their strange actions, nor were the
master or the ships officers acquainted
with the object of the unexpected visit
of the police authorities.
